- 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
- Polyfill pselect() on Windows
- Add -O NOFILE flag to pledge.com
- Polyfill ppoll() on NetBSD, XNU, and Windows
- Support negative numbers and errno in sizetol()
- Add .RSS, .NOFILE, and .MAXCORE to Landlock Make
- Fix issue with .PLEDGE preventing touching of output files
- Add __watch() function (like ftrace) for logging memory changes
- 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
This change fixes Landlock Make so that only the output target file is
unveiled, rather than unveiling the directory that contains it. This
gives us a much stronger sandbox. It also helped identify problematic
build code in our repo that should have been using o/tmp instead.
Landlock isn't able to let us unveil files that don't exist. Even if
they do, then once a file is deleted, the sandboxing for it goes away.
This caused problems for Landlock Make because tools like GNU LD will
repeatedly delete and recreate the output file. This change uses the
compile.com wrapper to ensure on changes happen to the output inode.
New binary available on https://justine.lol/make/Fixes#528
- 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.
This change also fixes a bug with gettid() being incorrect after fork().
We now implement the ENOENT behavior for getauxval(). The getuid() etc.
system calls are now faster too. Plus issetugid() will work on BSDs.
- 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
We had previously not enabled TLS in MODE=tiny in order to keep the
smallest example programs (e.g. life.com) just 16kb in size. But it
was error prone doing that, so now we just always enable it because
this change uses hacks to ensure it won't increase life.com's size.
This change also fixes a bug on NetBSD, where signal handlers would
break thread local storage if SA_SIGINFO was being used. This looks
like it might be a bug in NetBSD, but it's got a simple workaround.
We now rewrite the binary image at runtime on Windows and XNU to change
mov %fs:0,%reg instructions to use %gs instead. There's also simpler
threading API introduced by this change and it's called _spawn() and
_join(), which has replaced most clone() usage.
- 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
It's never worked very well having nesemu1.com and printvideo.com
spawning an ffmpeg or sox subprocess and streaming audio samples via
pipes. Since these programs don't work very well for that purpose, and
if you're SSH'ing into the cloud, the speaker could be very far away.
This change is part of an experiment to instead patch desktop terminals
such as PuTTY, KiTTY, gnome-terminal, etc. to support receiving inband
audio samples as ANSI code, and then playing them on the speakers of the
local machine that's being used. This way we can use printf() as a cross
platform audio playback library.
