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.
- Get ASAN working on Windows.
- Deleting directories and then recreating them with the same name in a
short period of time appears to be a no-no on Windows.
- There's no reason to call FlushFileBuffers on close() for pipes, and
it's harmful since it might block indefinitely for no good reason.
