This change progresses our AARCH64 support:
- The AARCH64 build and tests are now passing
- Add 128-bit floating-point support to printf()
- Fix clone() so it initializes cosmo's x28 TLS register
- Fix TLS memory layout issue with aarch64 _Alignas vars
- Revamp microbenchmarking tools so they work on aarch64
- Make some subtle improvements to aarch64 crash reporting
- Make kisdangerous() memory checks more accurate on aarch64
- Remove sys_open() since it's not available on Linux AARCH64
This change makes general improvements to Cosmo and Redbean:
- Introduce GetHostIsa() function in Redbean
- You can now feature check using pledge(0, 0)
- You can now feature check using unveil("",0)
- Refactor some more x86-specific asm comments
- Refactor and write docs for some libm functions
- Make the mmap() API behave more similar to Linux
- Fix WIFSIGNALED() which wrongly returned true for zero
- Rename some obscure cosmo keywords from noFOO to dontFOO
There's a new program named ape/ape-m1.c which will be used to build an
embeddable binary that can load ape and elf executables. The support is
mostly working so far, but still chasing down ABI issues.
- Perform some housekeeping on scalar math function code
- Import ARM's Optimized Routines for SIMD string processing
- Upgrade to latest Chromium zlib and enable more SIMD optimizations
- Utilities like pledge.com now build
- kprintf() will no longer balk at 48-bit addresses
- There's a new aarch64-dbg build mode that should work
- gc() and defer() are mostly pacified; avoid using them on aarch64
- THIRD_PART_STB now has Arm Neon intrinsics for fast image handling
The system call wrapper was wrongfully reinterpreting kernel data. The
examples/sysinfo.c program is now updated to show how to correctly use
what's returned.
* [metal] Copy program pages to extended memory at startup
* [metal] Reclaim base memory pages for later app use
* [metal] Load program pages beyond 1st 440 KiB to extended memory
o//examples/hellolua.com now runs correctly under QEMU (in
legacy BIOS mode).
* [metal] Place GDT in read/write segment
The CPU absolutely needs to alter the GDT when loading the
task register (via ltr). To account for this, I move the
GDT into a read/write data section. There is still a "rump"
read-only GDT in the text section that is used by the real
mode bootloader.
We also delay the loading of the task register (ltr) until
after the IDT and TSS are finally set up.
* [metal] Get examples/vga2.c serial output working for UEFI boot
* [metal] Get examples/vga2.c VGA output working for UEFI boot
* [metal] Allow munmap() to reclaim dynamically allocated pages
* Place TLS sections right after .text, not after embedded zip file

This lets our system() and popen() commands function sort of like
BusyBox and ToyBox. By default the Cosmopolitan Shell is lightweight.
But if you use STATIC_YOINK then you can pull the individual commands
you want into the linkage, and they'll be included in a single binary.
For example the demo binary embeds `tr` and `sed` and ends up ~140kb.
The cosmopolitan command interpreter now has 13 builtin commands,
variable support, support for ; / && / || syntax, asynchronous support,
and plenty of unit tests with bug fixes.
This change fixes a bug in posix_spawn() with null envp arg. strace
logging now uses atomic writes for scatter functions. Breaking change
renaming GetCpuCount() to _getcpucount(). TurfWar is now updated to use
the new token bucket algorithm. WIN32 affinity masks now inherit across
fork() and execve().
This change addresses various open source compatibility issues, so that
we pass 313/411 of the tests in https://github.com/jart/libc-test where
earlier today we were passing about 30/411 of them, due to header toil.
Please note that Glibc only passes 341/411 so 313 today is pretty good!

- Import more of the remaining math library routines from Musl

Follow the instructions in our `tool/scripts/cosmocc` toolchain to run
these tests yourself. You use `make CC=cosmocc` on the test repository
* [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
* Test output of colors for VGA graphics modes in examples/vga.c
* [metal] Character output in VGA graphics modes is mostly working
* [metal] Mention magic key to switch video mode, at bootup
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:
https://justine.lol/cosmopolitan/functions.html
- 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
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
If your main module has this declaration:
STATIC_YOINK("vga_console");
Then a VGA driver will be linked into your executable which
displays your stdio characters on the PC display, whereas
before we could only use the serial port. Your display is an
ANSI terminal and it's still a work in progress.
It now works most excellently across all supported operating
sytsems (earlier it didn't work on NT and XNU). Demo code is
available in examples/clock.c and this change also adds some
of the newer ANSI C time functions like timespec_get(), plus
timespec_getres() which hasn't even come out yet as it's C23
