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.
This change improves copy_file_range(), sendfile(), splice(), openpty(),
closefrom(), close_range(), fadvise() and posix_fadvise() in addition to
writing tests that confirm things like errno and seeking behavior across
platforms. We now less aggressively polyfill behavior with some of these
functions when the platform support isn't available. Please see:

This change upgrades to the latest Chromium Zlib, fixes bugs in redbean,
and introduces better support for reverse proxies like Cloudflare. This
change improves the security of redbean and it's recommended that users
upgrade to the release that'll follow. This change also updates the docs
to clarify how to use the security tools redbean provides e.g. pledge(),
unveil(), and the MODE=asan builds which improve memory safety.
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
- Fix preadv() and pwritev() for old distros
- Introduce _npassert() and _unassert() macros
- Prove that file locks work properly on Windows
- Support fcntl(F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC) on more systems
640 bytes for old kDos2Errno table
182 bytes for new kDos2Errno under hello2.com (MODE=fastbuild)
122 bytes for new kDos2Errno under hello2.com (MODE=tiny)
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 fixes off-by-one bugs, as well as missing carriage returns
caused by command truncation. When the terminal's width is 0 or
unknown, line feeds are used instead. Otherwise, the command is
padded with spaces to clear the line when the terminal is dumb.
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.
