- CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID
Cosmo now supports the above constants universally across supported OSes
therefore it's now safe to let programs detect their presence w/ #ifdefs
Cosmopolitan Libc once called this important function although somewhere
along the way, possibly in a refactoring, it got removed and __tls_alloc
has always been zero ever since.
The memory leak detector was crashing. When using gc() you shouldn't use
the CheckForMemoryLeaks() function from inside the same function, due to
how it runs the atexit handlers.
Cosmopolitan now supports mremap(), which is only supported on Linux and
NetBSD. First, it allows memory mappings to be relocated without copying
them; this can dramatically speed up data structures like std::vector if
the array size grows larger than 256kb. The mremap() system call is also
10x faster than munmap() when shrinking large memory mappings.
There's now two functions, getpagesize() and getgransize() which help to
write portable code that uses mmap(MAP_FIXED). Alternative sysconf() may
be called with our new _SC_GRANSIZE. The madvise() system call now has a
better wrapper with improved documentation.
It's now possible to create thousands of thousands of sparse independent
memory mappings, without any slowdown. The memory manager is better with
tracking memory protection now, particularly on Windows in a precise way
that can be restored during fork(). You now have the highest quality mem
manager possible. It's even better than some OSes like XNU, where mmap()
is implemented as an O(n) operation which means sadly things aren't much
improved over there. With this change the llamafile HTTP server endpoint
at /tokenize with a prompt of 50 tokens is now able to handle 2.6m r/sec
This change reduces o/tiny/examples/life from 44kb to 24kb in size since
it avoids linking mmap() when unnecessary. This is important, to helping
cosmo not completely lose touch with its roots.
- Ensure SIGTHR isn't blocked in newly created threads
- Use TIB rather than thread_local for thread atexits
- Make POSIX thread keys atomic within thread
- Don't bother logging prctl() to --strace
- Log thread destructor names to --strace
The way to use double linked lists, is to remove all the things you want
to work on, insert them into a new list on the stack. Then once you have
all the work items, you release the lock, do your work, and then lock it
again, to add the shelled out items back to a global freelist.
This fixes a regression in mmap(MAP_FIXED) on Windows caused by a recent
revision. This change also fixes ZipOS so it no longer needs a MAP_FIXED
mapping to open files from the PKZIP store. The memory mapping mutex was
implemented incorrectly earlier which meant that ftrace and strace could
cause cause crashes. This lock and other recursive mutexes are rewritten
so that it should be provable that recursive mutexes in cosmopolitan are
asynchronous signal safe.
