- 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.
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.
- 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
- 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
Our build was flaking due to ETXTBSY errors running multiple redbean
instances in parallel. This is due to the StoreAsset() support which
seems to cause enough problems it's worth making a *breaking change*
turning it off by default for now. There's a new -* flag, to restore
redbean's old self-modifying behavior.
- Fix DescribeSigset()
- Introduce new unix.rmrf() API
- Fix redbean sigaction() doc example code
- Fix unix.sigaction() w/ more than two args
- Improve redbean re module API (non-breaking)
- Enhance Lua with Python string multiplication
- Make third parameter of unix.socket() default to 0
This change fixes a regression from 281a0f27 which resulted in the
integer literal `0` being interpreted as a floating point number. This
should also fix a reported issue with Fennel integration.
The Compress() and Uncompress() APIs were a mistake. The functions
themselves work fine, but it's a design blemish and does superfluous
work. Since they were only introduced in the last few weeks, they're now
deprecated and references to them have been scrubbed from the website
and other documentation. Please use the new APIs since the old APIs will
be removed at some point in the future.
This change introduces automated Lua unit tests for the Redbean APIs.
There's a few functions that were broken which have now been fixed, e.g.
Underlong() and Decimate().
- Fix Makefile flaking due to ZIPOBJ_FLAGS generation
- Make printf() floating point and gdtoa thread safe
- Polish up the runit / runitd programs some more
- Prune some more makefile dependencies
- Fix some minor issues in ar.com
- Have execve() look for `ape` command
- Rewrite NT paths using /c/ rather /??/c:/
- Replace broken GCC symlinks with .sym files
- Rewrite $PATH environment variables on startup
- Make $(APE_NO_MODIFY_SELF) the default bootloader
- Add all build command dependencies to build/bootstrap
- Get the repository mostly building from source on non-Linux
- Add FreeBSD-specific mmap() flags
- Reduce size of the APE loader from 8kb to 4kb
- Work towards fixing the Makefile build on WSL
- Automate testing of APE no-modify-self behaviors
- Make the ape.S shell script code cleaner and tinier
- Improve the APE sanity check to test behavior better
- Fixed issue with ShowCrashReports() sigaltstack() on BSDs
- Delete symbols for S_MODE magnums which wasted compile time
If you checked out yesterday's APE commit, please run:
rm -f /usr/bin/ape o/tmp/ape /tmp/ape "${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`.

- add -X unsecure (no ssl) mode to redbean
- munmap() has more consistent behavior now
- pacify fsync() calls on python unit tests
- make --strace flag work better in redbean
- start minimizing and documenting compiler flags
You now have some ability to truly make an executable yours, by adding a
`.args` file to the root of the zip structure. If this is specified,
then you'll be overriding the default CLI args.
This will be a great feature for folks who want to distribute their own
apps, using the interpreter executable, but have the executable appears
to be just your app rather than being the interpreter.
