- introduce pthread_cleanup_push() and pthread_cleanup_pop()
* [metal] Refactoring: separate out sys_writev_vga() and _vga_init() modules
* [metal] Read VGA info from BDA before long mode entry, not after
If using a pre-existing VGA text console, the VGA initialization
code now retrieves the cursor position & character height from
the BIOS data area while still in real mode — rather than
reading from the BIOS data area only after entering long mode.
(This should help make the code more correct, if Cosmopolitan
were to support UEFI graphics output in the future. If the
program were booted via UEFI, then the long mode IsMetal()
code would still be activated, but the BIOS data area might
not have been initialized in that case.)
This change also means that there are now a few more fields
in the `struct mman`.
* [metal] VGA console can now show "screen of death" upon a crash
There is now a new function _klog_vga(), which can be called
by kprintf() to output system messages — e.g. information about
CPU exceptions — on the VGA screen.
* [metal] CPU exception handler now dumps cr2 value
* [metal] Add demo of program crash reporting w/ bare metal VGA TTY
* [metal] Reduce size of "screen of death" code
We need to make sure no existing mappings exist between the
MAP_GROWSDOWN page and the guard page, since otherwise it's
not going to be able to grow down thus causing difficult to
troubleshoot failures.
This change also found a few POSIX compliance bugs with errnos. Another
bug was discovered where, on Windows, pread() and pwrite() could modify
the file position in cases where ReadFile() returned an error e.g. when
seeking past the end of file. We also have more tests!
This makes it possible for us to use system() and popen() with paths
that redirect to filenames that contain spaces, e.g.
system("echo.com hello >\"hello there.txt\"")
It's difficult to solve this problem, because WIN32 only allows passing
one single argument when launching programs and each program is allowed
to tokenize that however it wants. Most software follows the convention
of cmd.exe which is poorly documented and positively byzantine.
In the future we're going to solve this by not using cmd.exe at all and
instead embedding the cocmd.com interpreter into the system() function.
In the meantime, our documentation has been updated to help recalibrate
any expectation the user might hold regarding the security of using the
Windows command interpreter.
Fixes#644
This change reduces the .bss memory requirement for all executables by
O(64kb). The brk system calls are now fully tested and figured out and
might be useful for tiny programs that only target System Five.
Since we're now on Windows 8, we can have clone() work as advertised on
Windows, where it sends a futex wake to the child tid. It's also likely
we no longer need to work around thread flakes on OpenBSD, in _wait0().
Doing this makes binaries tinier, since we don't need to have all the
extra code for supporting a 32-bit address space. It also benefits us
because we're able to use WIN32 futexes, which makes locking simpler.
b69f3d2488 is what officially ended our
Windows 7 support. This change is merely a formalization. You can use
old versions of Cosmo now and forevermore if you need Windows 7 since
our repository is hermetic and vendors all its dependencies.
Won't fix#617
You can now run bare metal on bare metal!
* Fix handling of int 0x15 eax = 0xe820 memory map
* Fix some issues in initial page table creation
* hello4.com now works outside emulators
* Ensure area for identity page tables are zeroed first
* Simplify logic for creating page table entries, this partly
reverts 577c0f6226
* Add degenerate MBR partition entry, to ease testing

This makes breaking changes to add underscores to many non-standard
function names provided by the c library. MODE=tiny is now tinier and
we now use smaller locks that are better for tiny apps in this mode.
Some headers have been renamed to be in the same folder as the build
package, so it'll be easier to know which build dependency is needed.
Certain old misguided interfaces have been removed. Intel intrinsics
headers are now listed in libc/isystem (but not in the amalgamation)
to help further improve open source compatibility. Header complexity
has also been reduced. Lastly, more shell scripts are now available.
The organization of the source files is now much more rational.
Old experiments that didn't work out are now deleted. Naming of
things like files is now more intuitive.
This change fixes#496 where ASAN spotted a race condition that could
happen in multithreaded programs, with more than OPEN_MAX descriptors
when using ZipOS or Windows NT, which require tracking open file info
and this change fixes that table so it never relocates, thus allowing
us to continue to enjoy the benefits of avoiding locks while reading.
- You can now use _gc(malloc()) in multithreaded programs
- This change fixes a bug where fork() on NT disabled TLS
- Fixed TLS code morphing on XNU/NT, for R8-R15 registers
This is the same as `unreachable` except it always traps violations,
even if we're not running in MODE=dbg. This is useful for impossible
conditions relating to system calls. It avoids terrifying bugs where
control falls through to an unrelated function.
This change fixes a nasty bug where SIG_IGN and SIG_DFL weren't working
as advertised on BSDs. This change also fixes the tkill() definition on
MacOS so it maps to __pthread_kill().
- Polyfill pselect() on Windows
- Add -O NOFILE flag to pledge.com
- Polyfill ppoll() on NetBSD, XNU, and Windows
- Support negative numbers and errno in sizetol()
- Add .RSS, .NOFILE, and .MAXCORE to Landlock Make
- Fix issue with .PLEDGE preventing touching of output files
- Add __watch() function (like ftrace) for logging memory changes
It turned out that specifying all SRCS and INCS as dependencies on the
pattern rules for all headers, caused `make` memory usage to skyrocket
from 40mb ot 160mb. This change also reduces the build graph another 4%.
* Fix deterministic startup stack setup, especially for bare metal
* Implement __enable_tls() on bare metal
* Get __get_tls_privileged() working on bare metal
