- Polyfill ucontext_t on FreeBSD/OpenBSD/NetBSD
- Add tests confirming signals can edit CPU state
- Work towards supporting ZIP filesystem on bare metal
- Add more tinymath unit tests for POSIX conformance
- Add X87 and SSE status flags to crash report
- Fix some bugs in blinkenlights
- Fix llvm build breakage
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.
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.
I wanted a tiny scriptable meltdown proof way to run userspace programs
and visualize how program execution impacts memory. It helps to explain
how things like Actually Portable Executable works. It can show you how
the GCC generated code is going about manipulating matrices and more. I
didn't feel fully comfortable with Qemu and Bochs because I'm not smart
enough to understand them. I wanted something like gVisor but with much
stronger levels of assurances. I wanted a single binary that'll run, on
all major operating systems with an embedded GPL barrier ZIP filesystem
that is tiny enough to transpile to JavaScript and run in browsers too.
