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 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
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)
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.
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
- 10.5% reduction of o//depend dependency graph
- 8.8% reduction in latency of make command
- Fix issue with temporary file cleanup
There's a new -w option in compile.com that turns off the recent
Landlock output path workaround for "good commands" which do not
unlink() the output file like GNU tooling does.
Our new GNU Make unveil sandboxing appears to have zero overhead
in the grand scheme of things. Full builds are pretty fast since
the only thing that's actually slowed us down is probably libcxx
make -j16 MODE=rel
RL: took 85,732,063µs wall time
RL: ballooned to 323,612kb in size
RL: needed 828,560,521µs cpu (11% kernel)
RL: caused 39,080,670 page faults (99% memcpy)
RL: 350,073 context switches (72% consensual)
RL: performed 0 reads and 11,494,960 write i/o operations
pledge() and unveil() no longer consider ENOSYS to be an error.
These functions have also been added to Python's cosmo module.
This change also removes some WIN32 APIs and System Five magnums
which we're not using and it's doubtful anyone else would be too
- 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.
- Make memmem() faster
- Make readdir() thread safe
- Remove 64kb limit from mkdeps.com
- Add old crypt() function from Musl
- Improve new fix-third-party.py tool
- Improve libc/isystem/ headers and fix bugs
- Fix getpriority()
- Add AT_MINSIGSTKSZ
- Fix bugs in BPF code
- Show more stuff in printargs.com
- Write manual test for pledge.com
- pledge() now generates tinier BPF code
- Have pledge("exec") only enable execve()
- Fix pledge.com chroot setuid functionality
- Improve pledge.com unveiling of ape loader
This change fixes bugs, adds more system calls, and improves
compatibility with OpenBSD. Going forward, versions on the web will be
pinned to a permanent version. There were many other changes over the
last week which also improved this new release.
- Introduce path module to redbean
- Fix glitch with linenoise printing extra line on eof
- Introduce closefrom() and close_range() system calls
- Make file descriptor closing more secure in pledge.com
This change reconciles our pledge() implementation with the OpenBSD
kernel source code. We now a polyfill that's much closer to OpenBSD's
behavior. For example, it was discovered that "stdio" permits threads.
There were a bunch of Linux system calls that needed to be added, like
sched_yield(). The exec / execnative category division is now dropped.
We're instead using OpenBSD's "prot_exec" promise for launching APE
binaries and dynamic shared objects. We also now filter clone() flags.
The pledge.com command has been greatly improved. It now does unveiling
by default when Landlock is available. It's now smart enough to unveil a
superset of paths that OpenBSD automatically unveils with pledge(), such
as /etc/localtime. pledge.com also now checks if the executable being
launched is a dynamic shared object, in which case it unveils libraries.
These changes now make it possible to pledge curl on ubuntu 20.04 glibc:
pledge.com -p 'stdio rpath prot_exec inet dns tty sendfd recvfd' \
curl -s https://justine.lol/hello.txt
Here's what pledging curl on Alpine 3.16 with Musl Libc looks like:
pledge.com -p 'stdio rpath prot_exec dns inet' \
curl -s https://justine.lol/hello.txt
Here's what pledging curl.com w/ ape loader looks like:
pledge.com -p 'stdio rpath prot_exec dns inet' \
o//examples/curl.com https://justine.lol/hello.txt
The most secure sandbox, is curl.com converted to static ELF:
o//tool/build/assimilate.com o//examples/curl.com
pledge.com -p 'stdio rpath dns inet' \
o//examples/curl.com https://justine.lol/hello.txt
A weird corner case needed to be handled when resolving symbolic links
during the unveiling process, that's arguably a Landlock bug. It's not
surprising since Musl and Glibc are also inconsistent here too.
- Wrap clock_getres()
- Wrap sched_setscheduler()
- Make sleep() api conformant
- Polyfill sleep() using select()
- Improve clock_gettime() polyfill
- Make nanosleep() POSIX conformant
- Slightly improve some DNS functions
- Further strengthen pledge() sandboxing
- Improve rounding of timeval / timespec
- Allow layering of pledge() calls on Linux
- Polyfill sched_yield() using select() on XNU
- Delete more system constants we probably don't need
- Document redbean's argon2 module
- Fix regressions in cthreads library

- Remove some of the stdio assembly code
- Implement getloadavg() across platforms

- Make errnos for dup2 / dup3 consistent with posix
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.

If you checked out yesterday's APE commit, please run:
rm -f /usr/bin/ape o/tmp/ape /tmp/ape "${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/ape"
Because this change fixes certain aspects of the new ABI. We don't have
automated migrations for APE loader versions yet. Thanks! You can also
download prebuilt binaries here:
- https://justine.lol/ape.elf (Linux/FreeBSD/NetBSD/OpenBSD)
- https://justine.lol/ape.macho (Apple)
Install the appropriate one as `/usr/bin/ape`.
