- use PAGE_RSRV bit (originally only for blinkenlights),
rather than PAGE_V bit, to indicate that a virtual address
page has been reserved — this should allow a program to
create & reserve inaccessible "guard pages"
- mark page table entries for non-code pages with PAGE_XD bit,
which should be supported on (circa) post-2004 x86-64 CPUs
libc/intrin/interrupts.S should not be linked in unless
an IDT (or TSS) is explicitly requested somewhere (i.e.
it should probably not be a mandatory module).
The metal boot sector code was wrapped in a single-quoted
string, like so:
MZqFpD='
...MZ HEADER...
...E_LFANEW...
...BIOS BOOT SECTOR...'
This might break the shell code loader if the boot sector code
contains a 0x27 (single quote) byte. This patch wraps the
boot sector code in a here-document instead:
MZqFpD='
...MZ HEADER...' <<'@'
...E_LFANEW...
...BIOS BOOT SECTOR...
@
This is harder to break — when interpreted as a shell script,
the code can only accidentally terminate the here-document
if there is a "\n@\n" sequence inside the BIOS boot portion.
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.
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

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.
This change tunes the default stack size for the outside world to 8mb
while at the same time, reducing Cosmopolitan's default stack size to
64kb. You can override the stack size using STATIC_STACK_SIZE(). Your
build scripts should point to o//ape/public/ape.lds
This change also fixes the definition of SOMAXCONN and removes AF_RDS
since it's not polyfilled and Python 3.11 complained.
This allows e.g. `qemu-system-x86_64 -s o/examples/hello.com
-serial stdio` to work without having to add extra padding to
the end of the `hello.com` "disk image".
(The sector count computation is divided among two instructions
in the assembly code. This is done on purpose, to prevent an
ASCII 0x27 (single quote) byte from appearing in the bare
metal loader code, which will break the shell script loader.
There is probably a better way.)

- We now kill the program on violations like OpenBSD
- We now print a message explaining which promise is needed
- This change also fixes a linkage bug with thread local storage
- Your sigaction() handlers should now be more thread safe
A new `__pledge_mode` global has been introduced to make pledge() more
customizable on Linux. For example:
__attribute__((__constructor__)) static void init(void) {
__pledge_mode = SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO | EPERM;
}
Can be used to restore our old permissive pledge() behavior.
The whole repository is now buildable with GNU Make Landlock sandboxing.
This proves that no Makefile targets exist which touch files other than
their declared prerequisites. In order to do this, we had to:
1. Stop code morphing GCC output in package.com and instead run a
newly introduced FIXUPOBJ.COM command after GCC invocations.
2. Disable all the crumby Python unit tests that do things like create
files in the current directory, or rename() files between folders.
This ended up being a lot of tests, but most of them are still ok.
3. Introduce an .UNSANDBOXED variable to GNU Make to disable Landlock.
We currently only do this for things like `make tags`.
4. This change deletes some GNU Make code that was preventing the
execve() optimization from working. This means it should no longer
be necessary in most cases for command invocations to be indirected
through the cocmd interpreter.
5. Missing dependencies had to be declared in certain places, in cases
where they couldn't be automatically determined by MKDEPS.COM
6. The libcxx header situation has finally been tamed. One of the
things that makes this difficult is MKDEPS.COM only wants to
consider the first 64kb of a file, in order to go fast. But libcxx
likes to have #include lines buried after huge documentation.
7. An .UNVEIL variable has been introduced to GNU Make just in case
we ever wish to explicitly specify additional things that need to
be whitelisted which aren't strictly prerequisites. This works in
a manner similar to the recently introduced .EXTRA_PREREQS feature.
There's now a new build/bootstrap/make.com prebuilt binary available. It
should no longer be possible to write invalid Makefile code.
Rosetta doesn't correctly respect the startup registers as defined in LC_UNIXTHREAD
which makes platform detection go awry. But at least Rosetta appears to consistently
set rbx to 0x00000000ffffffff and rdx to 0x0000000000000001 at startup for every
x64 executable I could get my hands on. So we use that to detect Rosetta's presence
and set up the correct registers for XNU.
This should strike a better compromise that keeps people happy about the
security of APE when it extracts the loader. This way systems with users
who aren't trusted (e.g. CPanel) won't be at any risk of compromise when
there isn't an `ape` loader on the system `$PATH`.
This change also bumps redbean up to 2.0.3
Calls to lock/unlock functions are now NOPs by default. The first time
clone() is called, they get turned into CALL instructions. Doing this
caused funcctions like fputc() to shrink from 85 bytes to 45+4 bytes.
Since the ANSI solution of `(__threaded && lock())` inlines os much
superfluous binary content into functions all over the place.
- Finish cleaning up the stdio unlocked APIs
- Make __cxa_finalize() properly thread safe
- Don't log locks if threads aren't being used
- Add some more mutex guards to places using _mmi
- Specific lock names now appear in the --ftrace logs
- Fix mkdeps.com generating invalid Makefiles sometimes
- Simplify and fix bugs in the test runner infrastructure
- Fix issue where sometimes some functions wouldn't be logged
Microsoft's version of Linux requires that the ELF program headers say
that the executable has 4096 byte alignment. However, it doesn't force
us to pad the binary with NOPs to a page-aligned size.

This change also fixes a bug in the argon2 module, where the NUL
terminator was being included in the hash encoded ascii string. This
shouldn't require any database migrations to folks who found this module
and productionized it, since the argon2 library treats it as a c string.
The longjmp relocation in the master boot record coincidentally had a
quote character in it, which caused the master boot record to be used
when interpreter by the shell. The solution, is to move the grub stub
below the long mode loader so the real mode loader relocation is near
the master boot record. This change includes a regression test.
