This makes breaking changes to add underscores to many non-standard
function names provided by the c library. MODE=tiny is now tinier and
we now use smaller locks that are better for tiny apps in this mode.
Some headers have been renamed to be in the same folder as the build
package, so it'll be easier to know which build dependency is needed.
Certain old misguided interfaces have been removed. Intel intrinsics
headers are now listed in libc/isystem (but not in the amalgamation)
to help further improve open source compatibility. Header complexity
has also been reduced. Lastly, more shell scripts are now available.
The organization of the source files is now much more rational.
Old experiments that didn't work out are now deleted. Naming of
things like files is now more intuitive.
This change tunes the default stack size for the outside world to 8mb
while at the same time, reducing Cosmopolitan's default stack size to
64kb. You can override the stack size using STATIC_STACK_SIZE(). Your
build scripts should point to o//ape/public/ape.lds
This change also fixes the definition of SOMAXCONN and removes AF_RDS
since it's not polyfilled and Python 3.11 complained.
- You can now use _gc(malloc()) in multithreaded programs
- This change fixes a bug where fork() on NT disabled TLS
- Fixed TLS code morphing on XNU/NT, for R8-R15 registers
It now works most excellently across all supported operating
sytsems (earlier it didn't work on NT and XNU). Demo code is
available in examples/clock.c and this change also adds some
of the newer ANSI C time functions like timespec_get(), plus
timespec_getres() which hasn't even come out yet as it's C23
pthread_mutex_lock() now uses a better algorithm which goes much faster
in multithreaded environments that have lock contention. This comes at
the cost of adding some fixed-cost overhead to mutex invocations. That
doesn't matter for Cosmopolitan because our core libraries all encode
locking operations as NOP instructions when in single-threaded mode.
Overhead only applies starting the moment you first call clone().
This change restores the .symtab symbol table files in our flagship
programs (e.g. redbean.com, python.com) needed to show backtraces. This
also rolls back earlier changes to zip.com w.r.t. temp directories since
the right way to do it turned out to be the -b DIR flag.
This change also improves the performance of zip.com. It turned out
mmap() wasn't being used, because zip.com was assuming a 4096-byte
granularity, but cosmo requires 65536. There was also a chance to speed
up stdio scanning using the unlocked functions.
fgets() is now 4x faster which makes Make 2% faster. Landlock Make now
has a builtin $(uniq ...) function that uses critbit trees rather than
functional programming. Since uniq is the most important function this
optimization makes our cold start latency 15% faster.
Landlock Make will no longer sandbox prerequisites that end with a
trailing slash. This means you can use use directory prerequisites
for detecting deleted files when using using globbing, without the
effect of unveiling the entire directory. When you do want make to
unveil directories, you can omit the trailing slash.
- Polyfill pselect() on Windows
- Add -O NOFILE flag to pledge.com
- Polyfill ppoll() on NetBSD, XNU, and Windows
- Support negative numbers and errno in sizetol()
- Add .RSS, .NOFILE, and .MAXCORE to Landlock Make
- Fix issue with .PLEDGE preventing touching of output files
- Add __watch() function (like ftrace) for logging memory changes
We now guarantee TMPDIR will be defined on a per build rule basis. It'll
be an absolute path. It'll be secure and unique. It'll be rm -rf'd after
the last shell script line in your build rule is executed. If $TMPDIR is
already defined, then it'll be created as a subdirectory of your $TMPDIR
and then replace the variable with the new definition. The Landlock Make
repository will be updated with examples shortly after this change which
shall be known as Landlock Make 1.1.1.
