As explained in https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan/pull/436#issuecomment-1164706893 the original use case is not possible with sqlite serialization, as an in-memory database cannot be shared across multiple processes. Thereby, this use case simply creates a backup of the in-memory database created in '.init.lua' and loads it to do a query.
This is a minimal proof of concept in order to show that it is easily possible to store the sqlite database within the zip file itself not requiring creating an external file first. Changes include compiling the sqlite library with the serialization flag, adding serialize/deserialize to the lua sqlite library and demonstrating the work via the redbean demo.
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 should strike a better compromise that keeps people happy about the
security of APE when it extracts the loader. This way systems with users
who aren't trusted (e.g. CPanel) won't be at any risk of compromise when
there isn't an `ape` loader on the system `$PATH`.
This change also bumps redbean up to 2.0.3
We were using the Mach system call swtch() earlier. It's possible Apple
removed this system call in their recent 12.4 upgrade. We're better off
using x86 PAUSE here, since Mach is less public than the UNIX syscalls.
See #426
This change hardens the code for opening /zip/ files using the system
call interface. Thread safety and signal safety has been improved for
file descriptors in general. We now document fixed addresses that are
needed for low level allocations.
- 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
Calls to lock/unlock functions are now NOPs by default. The first time
clone() is called, they get turned into CALL instructions. Doing this
caused funcctions like fputc() to shrink from 85 bytes to 45+4 bytes.
Since the ANSI solution of `(__threaded && lock())` inlines os much
superfluous binary content into functions all over the place.
- Finish cleaning up the stdio unlocked APIs
- Make __cxa_finalize() properly thread safe
- Don't log locks if threads aren't being used
- Add some more mutex guards to places using _mmi
- Specific lock names now appear in the --ftrace logs
- Fix mkdeps.com generating invalid Makefiles sometimes
- Simplify and fix bugs in the test runner infrastructure
- Fix issue where sometimes some functions wouldn't be logged
These releases are really exciting since they contained the patches we
worked to get upstreamed. It means that their /bin/sh interpreters all
work fine with Actually Portable Executable now.
Microsoft's version of Linux requires that the ELF program headers say
that the executable has 4096 byte alignment. However, it doesn't force
us to pad the binary with NOPs to a page-aligned size.
This change switches most of the core locks to be re-entrant, in order
to reduce the chance of deadlocking code that does, clever things with
asynchronous signal handlers. This change implements it it in pthreads
so we're one step closer to having a standardized threading primitives
