- Exhaustively document cancellation points
- Rename SIGCANCEL to SIGTHR just like BSDs
- Further improve POSIX thread cancellations
- Ensure asynchronous cancellations work correctly
- Elevate the quality of getrandom() and getentropy()
- Make futexes cancel correctly on OpenBSD 6.x and 7.x
- Add reboot.com and shutdown.com to examples directory
- Remove underscore prefix from awesome timespec_*() APIs
- Create assertions that help verify our cancellation points
- Remove bad timespec APIs (cmp generalizes eq/ne/gt/gte/lt/lte)
This change makes some miracle modifications to the System Five system
call support, which lets us have safe, correct, and atomic handling of
thread cancellations. It all turned out to be cheaper than anticipated
because it wasn't necessary to modify the system call veneers. We were
able to encode the cancellability of each system call into the magnums
found in libc/sysv/syscalls.sh. Since cancellations are so waq, we are
also supporting a lovely Musl Libc mask feature for raising ECANCELED.
The cosmopolitan command interpreter now has 13 builtin commands,
variable support, support for ; / && / || syntax, asynchronous support,
and plenty of unit tests with bug fixes.
This change fixes a bug in posix_spawn() with null envp arg. strace
logging now uses atomic writes for scatter functions. Breaking change
renaming GetCpuCount() to _getcpucount(). TurfWar is now updated to use
the new token bucket algorithm. WIN32 affinity masks now inherit across
fork() and execve().
This change also found a few POSIX compliance bugs with errnos. Another
bug was discovered where, on Windows, pread() and pwrite() could modify
the file position in cases where ReadFile() returned an error e.g. when
seeking past the end of file. We also have more tests!
This change lets you use system() in an easier and portable way. The
problem with the call in the past has always been that bourne and
cmd.com on Windows have less than nothing in common, so pretty much the
only command system() could be used for across platforms was maybe echo.
cmd.exe is also a security liability due to its escaping rules.
Since cocmd.com implements 85% of what we need from bourne, in a really
tiny way, it makes perfect sense to be embedded in these functionss. We
get a huge performance boost too.
Fixes#644
- 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
ASAN and vfork() don't appear to play well together. Maybe in later
versions of GCC it'll be better. But vfork() is flirting with danger
after all and that probably doesn't make sense in ASAN mode anyway.
