This change fixes Cosmopolitan so it has fewer opinions about compiler
warnings. The whole repository had to be cleaned up to be buildable in
-Werror -Wall mode. This lets us benefit from things like strict const
checking. Some actual bugs might have been caught too.
This change integrates e58abc1110b335a3341e8ad5821ad8e3880d9bb2 from
https://github.com/ahgamut/musl-cross-make/ which fixes the issues we
were having with our C language extension for symbolic constants. This
change also performs some code cleanup and bug fixes to getaddrinfo().
It's now possible to compile projects like ncurses, readline and python
without needing to patch anything upstream, except maybe a line or two.
Pretty soon it should be possible to build a Linux distro on Cosmo.
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.
This change fixes a regression in unix.connect() caused by the recent
addition of UNIX domain sockets. The BSD finger command has been added
to third_party for fun and profit. A new demo has been added to redbean
showing how a protocol as simple as finger can be implemented.
Status lines for Emacs and Vim have been added to Python sources so
they'll be easier to edit using Python's preferred coding style.
Some DNS helper functions have been broken up into multiple files. It's
nice to have one function per file whenever possible, since that way we
don't need -ffunction-sections. Another reason it's good to have small
source files, is because the build will be enforcing resource limits on
compilation and testing soon.
The implementations of the getproto* functions follow from the getserv*
functions: same static name allocation, same type of internal function
that opens a file to search, aliases are not written to the struct, same
type of error handling/returns.
This changes also fixes a getaddrinfo AI_PASSIVE memory error. When
getaddrinfo is passed name = NULL and AI_PASSIVE in hints->ai_flags, it was
setting the s_addr value to INADDR_ANY but *not* returning the addrinfo
pointer via *res = ai. This caused a free(NULL) memory error when the caller
tried to free res, because the caller expects res to be a valid pointer to a
struct addrinfo.
Our non-standard API parseport() has been updated to use strtoimax.
strtoimax has an extra parameter endptr to store where the parsing was
terminated. endptr is used in parseport to check if the provided string
was valid.
- Better UBSAN error messages
- POSIX Advisory Locks polyfills
- Move redbean manual to /.help.txt
- System call memory safety in ASAN mode
- Character classification now does UNICODE
A new rollup tool now exists for flattening out the headers in a way
that works better for our purposes than cpp. A lot of the API clutter
has been removed. APIs that aren't a sure thing in terms of general
recommendation are now marked internal.
There's now a smoke test for the amalgamation archive and gigantic
header file. So we can now guarantee you can use this project on the
easiest difficulty setting without the gigantic repository.
A website is being created, which is currently a work in progress:

I wanted a tiny scriptable meltdown proof way to run userspace programs
and visualize how program execution impacts memory. It helps to explain
how things like Actually Portable Executable works. It can show you how
the GCC generated code is going about manipulating matrices and more. I
didn't feel fully comfortable with Qemu and Bochs because I'm not smart
enough to understand them. I wanted something like gVisor but with much
stronger levels of assurances. I wanted a single binary that'll run, on
all major operating systems with an embedded GPL barrier ZIP filesystem
that is tiny enough to transpile to JavaScript and run in browsers too.
