The send{,to,msg} and recv{,from,msg} functions have been updated to
delegate to WriteFile and ReadFile when appropriate, due to the fact
that socketpair(AF_UNIX) is implemented using kFdFile.
Thanks @fabriziobertocci for writing the test that caught this.
See #148 and #122
If an "index.lua" or "index.html" doesn't exist in zip file or the
filesystem, and no redirects have been defined for it either, then
redbean will render a listing of the zip central directory content
only if the request uri points to the root path.
Buffering now has optimal performance, bugs have been fixed, and some
missing apis have been introduced. This implementation is also now more
production worthy since it's less brittle now in terms of system errors.
That's going to help redbean since lua i/o is all based on stdio.
See #97
- removed unneeded share parameter from pipe on nt
- socktpair(type | SOCK_CLOEXEC) is now polyfilled
- use textwindows for linker micro-optimization
- apologies for auto clang-format diff noise :(
- improve socketpair docstring
See #122
You can now do epic things like this:
puts(_gc(xasprintf("%d", 123)));
The _gc() API is shorthand for _defer() which works like Go's keyword:
const char *s = xasprintf("%d", 123);
_defer(free, s);
puts(s);
Be sure to always use -fno-omit-frame-pointer which makes code fast too.
Enjoy! See also #114
- Polyfill open() w/ O_CLOEXEC on RHEL5
- Remove old workaround from rmdir() on the New Technology
- preadv() and pwritev() are now smarter about demodernization
- preadv() and pwritev() are now available on the New Technology
We can put this back the moment someone requests it. Pain-free garbage
collection for the C language is pretty cool. All it does is overwrite
the return address with a trampoline that calls free(). It's not clear
what it should be named if it's made a public API.
Cosmopolitan currently doesn't support threads and it doesn't do
anything fancy in longjmp/setjmp so this change was simple to do
- localeconv
- _setjmp (same as setjmp)
- _longjmp (same as longjmp)
- strcoll (same as strcmp)
- flockfile (does nothing)
- funlockfile (does nothing)
- ftrylockfile (does nothing)
See #61
The ucontext_t data structure XNU passes us doesn't appear to be part of
known memory. So we can't use ASAN during the trampoline, which converts
it to a Linux ucontext_t data structure. Please note that this change
doesn't impact the signal handler itself, only the trampoline.
Here's why we got those `Killed: 11` failures on MacOS after modifying
the contentns of the redbean.com executable. If you were inserting a
small file, such as a HelloWorld.html file, then InfoZIP might have
decreased the size of the executable to less than what the Mach-O
section had been expecting.
That's because when zipobj.com put things like time zone data in the
executable, it aligned each zip file entry on a 64-byte boundary, simply
for the sake of readability in binary dumps. But when InfoZIP edited the
file it would rewrite every entry using ZIP's usual 2-byte alignment.
Thus causing shrinkage.
The solution was to reconfigure the linker script so that zip file bits
that get put into the executable at link-time, such as timezone data,
aren't officially part of the executable image, i.e. we don't want the
operating system to load that part.
The original decision to put the linked zip files into the .data section
was mostly made so that when the executable was run in its .com.dbg form
it would still have the zip entries be accessible, even though there was
tons of GNU debug data following the central directory. We're not going
to be able to do that. The .com executable should be the canonical
executable. We have really good tools for automatically attaching and
configuring GDB correctly with debug symbols even when the .com is run.
We'll have to rely on those in cases where zip embedding is used.

Right now we can't call poll() on file and fifos on Windows. So we work
around that by simply blocking on keyboard input. This is OK because on
Windows we can't use /proc/*/mem for realtime monitoring, so there's no
reason not to block.

Your Actually Portable Executables now contains a simple virtual memory
that works similarly to the Linux Kernel in the sense that it maps your
physical memory to negative addresses. This is needed to support mmap()
and malloc(). This functionality has zero code size impact. For example
the MODE=tiny LIFE.COM executable is still only 12KB in size.
The APE bootloader code has also been simplified to improve readibility
and further elevate the elegance by which we're able to support so many
platforms thereby enhancing verifiability so that we may engender trust
in this bootloading process.
We're now scrubbing environment variables in compile.com since gnu make
was not behaving as expected. It also appears there was a regression in
recent revisions that caused ASAN to be turned off for most binaries in
dbg mode, which has now been fixed. Cosmopolitan is fully ASAN hardened
down to the lowest level libraries and it doesn't need any interceptors
- Reduce full build latency from ~20s to ~18s
- Bring back silent mode if `make V=0` is passed
- Demodernize utimes() polyfill so it works RHEL5
- Delete some old shell scripts that are no longer needed
- Truncate long lines when outputting builds to Emacs buffers
You can now build Cosmopolitan with Clang:
make -j8 MODE=llvm
o/llvm/examples/hello.com
The assembler and linker code is now friendly to LLVM too.
So it's not needed to configure Clang to use binutils under
the hood. If you love LLVM then you can now use pure LLVM.
It turns out adding OpenBSD msyscall() origin verification broke the
--ftrace flag. The executable needs to issue raw syscalls while it's
rewriting itself. So they need to be in the same section, and that's
just plain simpler too.
Compilers like GCC require comments on lines like `#endif rdmsr`. Since
the rdmsr macro was only being used in arch_prctl(), I've localized the
macro, and I'm considering deleting arch_prctl() too, since there isn't
any way to have mem segments unfortunately across operating systems ;_;
The remaining changed lines are due to clang-format which runs on auto.
You can now use cosmopolitan.h with an ANSI C89 compiler like MSVC. The
Cosmopolitan codebase itself won't support being compiled that way. But
you can build objects that link against Cosmopolitan using any compiler
and you can furthermore use tools like IntelliSense that can't even GNU

Thanks @gbbnfhb for the report!
This change enables Address Sanitizer systemically w/ `make MODE=dbg`.
Our version of Rust's `unsafe` keyword is named `noasan` which is used
for two functions that do aligned memory chunking, like `strcpy.c` and
we need to fix the tiny DEFLATE code, but that's it everything else is
fabulous you can have all the fischer price security blankets you need
Best of all is we're now able to use the ASAN data in Blinkenlights to
colorize the memory dumps. See the screenshot below of a test program:
https://justine.lol/blinkenlights/asan.png
Which is operating on float arrays stored on the stack, with red areas
indicating poisoned memory, and the green areas indicate valid memory.
The libm code from musl wasn't being used since most of these functions
are implemented using x87 which goes faster than a library intended for
risc machines.
We always favor calling functions like openat(), fstatat(), etc. because
Linux, XNU, FreeBSD, and OpenBSD all elected to support them, while some
systems like Android love them so much, that they stopped supporting the
old interfaces.
This change ensures that when dirfd is actually a dirfd and not AT_FDCWD
we'll do the right thing on Windows NT. We use an API that's been around
since Vista to accomplish that.
This change also adds exponential backoff to chdir() on Windows since it
seems almost as flaky on Windows 7 as the rmdir() function.
Justine says nay for the time being. Only XNU implements this. It's not
clear what ABI XNU is using but it's obviously not the one in the POSIX
documentation link below. Since all platforms implement vfork, it might
be better to empirically gauge the intersection of consensus which will
have better performance than this interface.

I rebooted Windows 7 and noticed that KERNEL32.DLL got relocated.
Microsoft needs to change and embrace the dream that was MULTICS.
Until then we'll need a better way to work around their dominion.

This change unbreaks test/libc/nexgen32e/memeqmask_test.c which appears

Fixes#26
This bug impacts folks who purchased Intel chips made in 2011-2012.
We're now using `vxorps` instead of `vpxor` which is great since it
means we do not need to change `X86_HAVE(AVX)` to `X86_HAVE(AVX2)`,
because AVX2 is only available on Haswell and later.
Fixes#16
Windows 7 support is now confirmed to be working. However it comes at
the cost of needing to workaround this tragically oppressive behavior
which is imposed for reasons unknown.

Here's how to boot an Actually Portable Executable in QEMU:
make -j12 o//tool/viz/deathstar.com
qemu-system-x86_64 -serial stdio -fda o//tool/viz/deathstar.com
Here's a screenshot of DEATHSTAR.COM booted in QEMU:

Thus metal support is in much better shape now, but still incomplete.
Only a few system calls have been polyfilled. To figure out which ones
your program needs, simply boot it in the blinkenlights emulator with a
breakpoint, and press CTRL-C to continue to the system call breakpoint.
If it doesn't break then you should be good. (Note: to emulate normally
you can press 'c' and use CTRL-T and ALT-T to tune the speed.)

Thank @Theldus for the bug report that made this change possible.
Fixes#20 which explains this change further.
It turned out that the linker was doing the wrong with the amalgamation
library concerning weak stubs. A regression test has been added and new
binaries have been uploaded to https://justine.lol/cosmopolitan/
Ideally this should be fixed by building a tool that turns multiple .a
files into a single .a file with deduplication. As a workaround for now
the cosmopolitan.a build is restructured to not include LIBC_STUBS which
meant technical debt needed to be paid off where non-stub interfaces
were moved to LIBC_INTRIN and LIBC_NEXGEN32E.
Thank @PerfectProductions in #31 for the report!
This change pays off technical debt with the function -> DLL mappings in
libc/nt/master.sh, which was originally defined based on binary analysis
on Windows 10. It's now been updated so the kernel32/kernelbase/advapi32
imports should be exactly as they are written, on the MSDN documentation
and that wouldn't have been easy without Geoff Chappell's work thank him
