When reading hexadecimal floats, cosmopolitan would previously sometimes
print a number of warnings relating to undefined behavior on left shift:
third_party/gdtoa/gethex.c:172: ubsan warning: signed left shift changed
sign bit or overflowed 12 'int' 28 'int' is undefined behavior
This is because gdtoa assumes left shifts are safe when overflow happens
even on signed integers - this is false: the C standard considers it UB.
This is easy to fix, by simply casting the shifted value to unsigned, as
doing so does not change the value or the semantics of the left shifting
(except for avoiding the undefined behavior, as the C standard specifies
that unsigned overflow yields wraparound, avoiding undefined behaviour).
This commit does this, and adds a testcase that previously triggered UB.
(this also adds test macros to test for exact float equality, instead of
the existing {EXPECT,ASSERT}_FLOAT_EQ macros which only tests inputs for
being "almost equal" (with a significant epsilon) whereas exact equality
makes more sense for certain things such as reading floats from strings,
and modifies other testcases for sscanf/fscanf of floats to utilize it).
At least in neovim, `│vi:` is not recognized as a modeline because it
has no preceding whitespace. After fixing this, opening a file yields
an error because `net` is not an option. (`noet`, however, is.)
This change makes pthread_mutex_lock() as fast as _spinlock() by
default. Thread instability issues on NetBSD have been resolved.
Improvements made to gdtoa thread code. Crash reporting will now
synchronize between threads in a slightly better way.
This commit makes numerous refinements to cosmopolitan memory handling.
The default stack size has been reduced from 2mb to 128kb. A new macro
is now provided so you can easily reconfigure the stack size to be any
value you want. Work around the breaking change by adding to your main:
STATIC_STACK_SIZE(0x00200000); // 2mb stack
If you're not sure how much stack you need, then you can use:
STATIC_YOINK("stack_usage_logging");
After which you can `sort -nr o/$MODE/stack.log`. Based on the unit test
suite, nothing in the Cosmopolitan repository (except for Python) needs
a stack size greater than 30kb. There are also new macros for detecting
the size and address of the stack at runtime, e.g. GetStackAddr(). We
also now support sigaltstack() so if you want to see nice looking crash
reports whenever a stack overflow happens, you can put this in main():
ShowCrashReports();
Under `make MODE=dbg` and `make MODE=asan` the unit testing framework
will now automatically print backtraces of memory allocations when
things like memory leaks happen. Bugs are now fixed in ASAN global
variable overrun detection. The memtrack and asan runtimes also handle
edge cases now. The new tools helped to identify a few memory leaks,
which are fixed by this change.
This change should fix an issue reported in #288 with ARG_MAX limits.
Fixing this doubled the performance of MKDEPS.COM and AR.COM yet again.
This program popped up on Hacker News recently. It's the only modern
compiler I've ever seen that doesn't have dependencies and is easily
modified. So I added all of the missing GNU extensions I like to use
which means it might be possible soon to build on non-Linux and have
third party not vendor gcc binaries.
