It's now possible to pass the `-S` or `-SS` flags to sandbox redbean
worker proecsses after they've been forked. The first `-S` flag is
intended to be a permissive builtin policy that limits system calls to
only that which the various parts of redbean serving need. The second
`-SS` flag is intended to be more restrictive, preventing things like
the Lua extensions you download off the web from using the HTTP client
or sockets APIs. In upcoming changes you'll be able to implement your
own Berkeley Packet Filter sandbox programs and load them via Lua.
- Fix a regression with the previous change that broke redbean
- Add chroot(), resource limit, seccomp, and other stuff to redbean
- Write lots and lots of documentation
- Iron out more system call issues
You can now interact with the global web server state on the command
line, which the web server is running. This supports Emacs shortcuts
with history, readline parity, <tab> completions, plus hints. Enjoy!
This change makes further effort towards improving our poll()
implementation on the New Technology. The stdin worker didn't work out
so well for Python so it's not being used for now. System call tracing
with the --strace flag should now be less noisy now on Windows unless
you modify the strace.internal.h defines to turn on some optional ones
that are most useful for debugging the system call wrappers.
- Fix bugs in kDos2Errno definition
- malloc() should now be thread safe
- Fix bug in rollup.com header generator
- Fix open(O_APPEND) on the New Technology
- Fix select() on the New Technology and test it
- Work towards refactoring i/o for thread safety
- Socket reads and writes on NT now poll for signals
- Work towards i/o completion ports on the New Technology
- Make read() and write() intermittently check for signals
- Blinkenlights keyboard i/o so much better on NT w/ poll()
- You can now poll() files and sockets at the same time on NT
- Fix bug in appendr() that manifests with dlmalloc footers off
You can now call functions like fork() from Lua and it'll work across
all supported platforms, including Windows. This gives you a level of
control of the system that Lua traditionally hasn't been able to have
due to its focus on old portable stdio rather modern POSIX APIs. Demo
code has been added to redbean-demo.com to show how it works.
This change also modifies Lua so that integer literals with a leading
zero will be interpreted as octal. That should help avoid shooting in
the foot with POSIX APIs that frequently use octal mode bits.
This change fixes a bug in opendir(".") on New Technology.
Lastly, redbean will now serve crash reports to private network IPs.
This is consistent with other frameworks. However that isn't served
to public IPs unless the -E flag is passed to redbean at startup.
- Document sigaction()
- Simplify New Technology fork() code
- Testing and many bug fixes for mprotect()
- Distribute Intel Xed ILD in the amalgamation
- Turn Xed enums into defines to avoid DWARF bloat
- Improve polyfilling of SA_SIGINFO on BSDs and fix bugs
- setpgid(getpid(), getpid()) on Windows will ignore CTRL-C
- Work around issues relating to NT mappings being executable
- Permit automatic executable stack override via `ape_stack_pf`
This fixes a regression from a change a few weeks ago in git commit
af645fcbec which caused certificates to
not be free()'d correctly if the certificates are chained. dlmalloc()
should have printed an error in most build modes. ASAN caught it too.
This change fixes minor bugs and adds a feature, which lets us store the
ELF symbol table, inside the ZIP directory. We use the path /zip/.symtab
which can be safely removed using a zip editing tool, to make the binary
smaller after compilation. This supplements the existing method of using
a separate .com.dbg file, which is still supported. The intent is people
don't always know that it's a good idea to download the debug file. It's
not great having someone's first experience be a crash report, that only
has numbers rather than symbols. This will help fix that!
redbean will now cleanup child processes properly. New accounting
information is available too, such as page faults and memory usage. The
way it works is Cosmopolitan Libc samples the process collection on
entry into read() and poll() to see if SIGCHLD needs to be raised.
This change also fixes an issue with chibicc /tmp cleanup. There was
also a regression in MODE=dbg because STL needed ASAN runtime support.
* Simplify handling of coroutine state
* Update redbean to allow yielding from Lua to support streaming
* Add stack checks for Lua resume calls in redbean
- redbean.com -D /zip/dir/ now works, for pure fun
- possibly fixed bug with redbean serving empty files
- zipos stat() mode now indicates directories on windows
See #372
Previously ProgramDirectory called isdirectory which returns false for
symlinks. instead just check directory with stat, and allow user to pass
`-D /tmp/foo/`, where /tmp/foo might be a symlink.
Continuous Integration (via runit and runitd) is now re-enabled on win7
and win10. The `make test` command, which runs the tests on all systems
is now the fastest and most stable it's been since the project started.
UBSAN is now enabled in MODE=dbg in addition to ASAN. Many instances of
undefined behavior have been removed. Mostly things like passing a NULL
argument to memcpy(), which works fine with Cosmopolitan Libc, but that
doesn't prevents the compiler from being unhappy. There was an issue w/
GNU make where static analysis claims a sprintf() call can overflow. We
also now have nicer looking crash reports on Windows since uname should
now be supported and msys64 addr2line works reliably.
* Allow ProgramUniprocess to be set on Windows
* Add closing p tag to Maxmind example
* Enable using symlinked directories with redbean -A flag
* Rename gc in redbean for consistency
* Improve StoreFile by adding checks and skipping ./ in stored path
* Add freeing memory in redbean LuaEncodeUrl
Ref #366
Now that we have understandable system call tracing on Windows, this
change rewrites many of the polyfill internals for that platform, to
help things get closer to tip top shape. Support for complex forking
scenarios had been in a regressed state for quite some time. Now, it
works! Subsequent changes should be able to address the performance.
- Simulate SIGPIPE on Windows NT
- Fix commandv() regression on Windows NT
- Fix sigprocmask() strace bug on OpenBSD
- Add many more system calls to --strace logging
- Make errno state more pristine in redbean strace
This is similar to the --ftrace (c function call trace) flag, except
it's less noisy since it only logs system calls to stderr. Having this
flag is valuable because (1) system call tracing tells us a lot about
the behavior of complex programs and (2) it's usually very hard to get
system call tracing on various operating systems, e.g. strace, ktrace,
dtruss, truss, nttrace, etc. Especially on Apple platforms where even
with the special boot trick, debuggers still aren't guaranteed to work.
make -j8 o//examples
o//examples/hello.com --strace
This is enabled by default in MODE=, MODE=opt, and MODE=dbg. In MODE=dbg
extra information will be printed.
make -j8 MODE=dbg o/dbg/examples
o/dbg/examples/hello.com --strace |& less
This change also changes:

- Fix redbean memory leak with Fetch() DNS object
- Restore original environ after __cxa_finalize()
- Make backtrace always work after __cxa_finalize()
- Introduce COUNTEXPR() diagnostic / benchmark tool
- Fix a few more instances of errno being clobbered
- Consolidate the ANSI color disabling internal APIs
We defined `noinline` as an abbreviation for the longer version
`__attribute__((__noinline__))` which caused name clashes since
third party codebases often write it as `__attribute__((noinline))`.
* Add GetBody() Lua API to redbean.
This improves consistency with RFC 7230 terminology and
should be favored over the old GetPayload function.
* Add GetStatus() API to redbean.
This is useful to get status after it's changed/set by Redbean,
for example if 505 or 508 is set when ServeRedirect is called.
* Introduce GetAssetComment() API to redbean.
This function should be favored over the old name GetComment().
* Introduce IsLoopbackClient() API to redbean
* Limit redbean reason to 128 chars when set instead of reporting an error
* Fix Lua panic in redbean when calling request/connection functions from .init.lua
The error calls were triggered appropriately, but used the global Lua
state instead of the current Lua state (within protected call), which
triggered Lua panic. This executes the error in the proper context.
* Rename global Lua state object to make its (mis-)usage easier to detect
