This version has better error messages and safety checks. It supports
loading static position-independent executables. It correctly handles
more kinds of weird ELF program header layouts. A force flag has been
added to avoid system execve(). Finally the longstanding misalignment
with our ELF PT_NOTE section has been addressed.
- The functions that return a sockaddr now do so the same way the Linux
Kernel does across platforms, e.g. getpeername(), accept4()
- Socket system calls on Windows will now only check for interrupts when
a blocking operation needs to be performed.
- Write tests for recvfrom() system call
lz4toasm should now more easily accept LZ4 files output by
compressor programs that do not support the extracted-size
field, such as Stephan Brumme's smallz4.
This patch also proposes to add a new lz4len() function to
the libc: it parses an LZ4 compressed block to compute the
unpacked content size, without really unpacking the block.

- tcgetpgrp(STDIN_FILENO) should be equal to getpgrp() on Windows also,
found while reading wget source code which uses this check to decide
whether to print to stderr or to a file
- IN6_ADDR_ARE_EQUAL is a comparison macro used when IPV6 is allowed,
found while reading CPython3.11 source code
- the changes in signal.h and addition of ucontext.h are because
CPython3.11 source code expect sigaltstack to be available
- the sqlite3.mk change is because CPython3.11 requires sqlite3 to be
built with -DOMIT_SHARED_CACHE
- unistd.h has getopt.h now, because some libraries like it there
This change introduces new tests for `O_NONBLOCK` and `SOCK_NONBLOCK` to
confirm that non-blocking i/o is now working on all supported platforms,
including Windows. For example, you can now say on Windows, MacOS, etc.:
socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM | SOCK_NONBLOCK, IPPROTO_TCP);
To create a non-blocking IPv4 TCP socket. Or you can enable non-blocking
i/o on an existing socket / pipe / etc. file descriptor by calling fcntl
fcntl(fd, F_SETFL, fcntl(fd, F_GETFL) | O_NONBLOCK);
This functionality is polyfilled on older Linux kernels too, e.g. RHEL5.
Now that fcntl() support is much better the FIOCLEX / FIONCLEX polyfills
for ioctl() have been removed since they're ugly non-POSIX diameond APIs
This change fixes a weakness in kprintf() that was causing Windows trace
tools to frequently crash.
- This commit mints a new release of APE Loader v1.2 which supports
loading ELF programs with a non-contiguous virtual address layout
even though we've never been able to take advantage of it, due to
how `objcopy -SO binary` fills any holes left by PT_LOAD. This'll
change soon, since we'll have a new way of creating APE binaries.
- The undiamonding trick with our ioctl() implementation is removed
since POSIX has been killing ioctl() for years and they've done a
much better job. One problem it resolves, is that ioctl(FIONREAD)
wasn't working earlier and that caused issues when building Emacs
- Fix unused local variable errors
- Remove yoinks from sigaction() header
- Add nox87 and aarch64 to github actions
- Fix cosmocc -fportcosmo in linking mode
- It's now possible to build `make m=llvm o/llvm/libc`
- compile.com now polyfills -march=native which gcc/clang removed
- Guarantee zero Windows code is linked into non-Windows binaries
- MODE=tinylinux binaries are now back to being as tiny as ~4kb
- Improve the runtime's stack allocation / alignment hack
- GitHub Actions now tests Linux modes for assurance
- Fix handling of precision in hex float formatting
- Enhance the cocmd interpreter for system() and popen()
- Manually ran the Lua unit tests, which are now passing
- Let stdio i/o operations happen when file is in error state
- We're now saving and restoring xmm in ftrace out of paranoia
It turned out that Landlock Make hasn't been applying sandboxing for a
while, due to a mistyped if statement for `$(USE_SYSTEM_TOOLCHAIN)` it
should have had the opposite meaning. Regressions in the build configs
have been fixed. The rmrf() function works better now. The rm.com tool
works according to POSIX with the exception of supporting prompts.
This change figures out some of the build configuration issues we've
been having with libcxx. The c++ span header is added. Per a Discord
discussion we're now turning off `-g` for the default build mode, so
consider using `make MODE=dbg` or `make MODE=zero` for GDB debugging
which works much better than `MODE=` ever has. Note that the default
build mode has always had very good function call / system call logs
plus you can still use ShowCrashReports() for backtrace. Making this
change ensures cosmocc will better conform to FOSS norms. Lastly the
LoadZipArgs() API has been added to cosmopolitan.a and <cosmo.h>.
This adds support for __cxa_demangle through the cxxabi.h file.
At the moment it is the only symbol included.
The source was taken from FreeBSD
contrib/libcxxrt/libelftc_dem_gnu3.c
2176c9ab71c85efd90a6c7af4a9e04fe8e3d49ca
FreeBSD does say this is also almost verbatim from ELFToolkit
This change fixes stderr to be unbuffered. Added hardware AES on ARM64
to help safeguard against timing attacks. The curl.com command will be
somewhat more pleasant to use.
The *NSYNC linked list API is good enough that it deserves to be part of
the C libray, so this change writes an improved version of it which uses
that offsetof() trick from the Linux Kernel. We vendor all of the *NSYNC
tests in third_party which helped confirm the needed refactoring is safe
This change also deletes more old code that didn't pan out. My goal here
is to work towards a vision where the Cosmopolitan core libraries become
less experimental and more focused on curation. This better reflects the
current level of quality we've managed to achieve.
After going through the MODE=dbg and MODE=zero build modes, a bunch of
little issues were identified, which have been addressed. Fixing those
issues created even more troubles for the project, because it improved
our ability to detect latent problems which are getting fixed so fast.
The build/bootstrap/ar.com program is now tinier. This change reduces
its size from 140kb to 53kb. Nothing was traded away. Cosmopolitan Ar
performance is now 2x better than llvm-ar largely thanks to using the
copy_file_range() system call. This change homebrews a new allocation
API that addresses the shortcomings of the C standard library design.
Using these new balloc() and reballoc() functions I managed to reduce
memory consumption so much that Cosmpolitan Ar should now use roughly
100x fewer bytes of peak resident memory compared to llvm-ar. Correct
behavior with better compatibility has been assured. Binary output is
now pretty much bit-identical to llvm-ar, as of this change. This can
and should be the living proof we need to show that a better world is
possible for software.
This change introduces support for Linux-style uc_context manipulation
that's fast and works well on all supported OSes and architectures. It
also integrates with the Cosmpolitan runtime which can show backtraces
comprised of multiple stacks and fibers. See the test and example code
for further details. This will be used by Mold once it's been vendored
