Munging of paths passed inside the system() interpreter command is no
longer supported. You have to pass your paths to posix_spawn() or the
execve() family of functions if you want them to be munged. The first
three characters must match `^/[a-z]/` in which case, it'll be turned
into a DOS-style drive path with backslashes.
- Introduce MAP_JIT which is zero on other platforms
- Invent __jit_begin() and __jit_end() which wrap Apple's APIs
- Runtime dispatch to sys_icache_invalidate() in __clear_cache()
- Use good ELF technique in cosmo_dlopen()
- Make strerror() conform more to other libc impls
- Introduce __clear_cache() and use it in cosmo_dlopen()
- Remove libc/fmt/fmt.h header (trying to kill off LIBC_FMT)
After hearing horror stories from a trusted colleague, I don't think
this is the kind of API we want to be supporting. Also SQLite wisdom
regarding fdatasync() has been added to the documentation.
We now have an `#include <cxxabi.h>` header which defines all the APIs
Cosmopolitan's implemented so far. The `cosmocc` README.md file is now
greatly expanded with documentation.
Our makefile generator now accepts badly formatted include lines. It's
now more hermetic with better error checking in the cosmo repo, and it
can be configured to not be hermetic at all.
Using `cosmocc -std=c11` was causing `ucontext_t` to become misaligned.
This change also adds the GNU constants on x86_64 for accessing general
registers, so you will not need `#ifdef`s to support both Cosmo and GNU
wait4() is now solid enough to run `make -j100` on Windows. You can now
use MSG_DONTWAIT on Windows. There was a handle leak in accept() that's
been fixed. Our WIN32 overlapped i/o code has been simplified. Priority
class now inherits into subprocesses, so the verynice command will work
and the signal mask will now be inherited by execve() and posix_spawn()
This change addresses a bug that was reported in #923 where bash on
Windows behaved strangely. It turned out that our weak linking of
malloc() caused bash's configure script to favor its own getcwd()
function, which is implemented in the most astonishing way, using
opendir() and readdir() to recursively construct the current path.
This change moves getcwd() into LIBC_STDIO so it can strongly link
malloc(). A new __getcwd() function is now introduced, so all the
low-level runtime services can still use the actual system call. It
provides the Linux Kernel API convention across platforms, and is
overall a higher-quality implementation than what we had before.
In the future, we should probably take a closer look into why bash's
getcwd() polyfill wasn't working as intended on Windows, since there
might be a potential opportunity there to improve our readdir() too.
This change gets the pledge (formerly pledge.com) command back in tip
top shape for a 3.0.1 cosmos release. It now runs on all platforms, even
though it's mostly a no-op on ones that lack the kernel security stuff.
The binary footprint is now smaller, since it no longer needs to link
malloc. It's also now able to be built as a fat binary.
* [metal] Add a uprintf() routine, for non-emergency boot logging
* [metal] _Really_ push forward timing of VGA TTY initialization
* [metal] Do something useful with uprintf()
* [metal] Locate some ACPI tables, for later hardware detection
Specifically the code now tries to find the ACPI RSDP,
RSDT/XSDT, FADT, & MADT tables, whether in legacy BIOS
bootup mode or in a UEFI bootup. These are useful for
figuring out how to (re)enable asynchronous interrupts
in legacy 8259 PIC mode.
- You can now run `make -j8 toolchain` on Windows
- You can now run `make -j` on MacOS ARM64 and BSD OSes
- You can now use our Emacs dev environment on MacOS/Windows
- Fix bug where the x16 register was being corrupted by --ftrace
- The programs under build/bootstrap/ are updated as fat binaries
- The Makefile now explains how to download cosmocc-0.0.12 toolchain
- The build scripts under bin/ now support "cosmo" branded toolchains
- stat() now goes faster on Windows (shaves 100ms off `make` latency)
- Code cleanup and added review on the Windows signal checking code
- posix_spawnattr_setrlimit() now works around MacOS ARM64 bugs
- Landlock Make now favors posix_spawn() on non-Linux/OpenBSD
- posix_spawn() now has better --strace logging on Windows
- fstatat() can now avoid EACCES in more cases on Windows
- fchmod() can now change the readonly bit on Windows
GNU Make on Windows now appears to be working reliably. This change also
fixes a bug where, after fork the Windows thread handle wasn't reset and
that caused undefined behavior using SetThreadContext() with our signals
This change gets GNU grep working. What caused it to not work, is it
wouldn't write to an output file descriptor when its dev/ino equaled
/dev/null's. So now we invent special dev/ino values for these files
This change refactors our POSIX signals emulation for Windows so that it
performs some additional safety checks before calling SetThreadContext()
which needs to be locked and must never ever interrupt Microsoft's code.
Kudos to the the Go developers for figuring out how to do this properly.
- On Windows connect() can now be interrupted by a signal; connect() w/
O_NONBLOCK will now raise EINPROGRESS; and connect() with SO_SNDTIMEO
will raise ETIMEDOUT after the interval has elapsed.
- We now get the AcceptEx(), ConnectEx(), and TransmitFile() functions
from the WIN32 API the officially blessed way, using WSAIoctl().
- Do nothing on Windows when fsync() is called on a directory handle.
This was raising EACCES earlier becaues GENERIC_WRITE is required on
the handle. It's possible to FlushFileBuffers() a directory handle if
it's opened with write access but MSDN doesn't document what it does.
If you have any idea, please let us know!
- Prefer manual reset event objects for read() and write() on Windows.
- Do some code cleanup on our dlmalloc customizations.
- Fix errno type error in Windows blocking routines.
- Make the futex polyfill simpler and faster.
