When redbean is functioning as a Lua interpreter, the `-e` flag should
behave the same way as other open source language interpreters. Namely
it should exit after evaluating the code rather than showing the REPL.
* Update redbean SQLite config to handle more options
This requires moving sqlite3_initialize call to open, as configuration
should be allowed before initialization is done. This call is effective
only for the first time and then no-op after that.
* Fix redbean SQLite for closing db with already finalized statements
There is a loop in cleanupdb that finalizes all vms that are associated
with that db when it's being closed. Under some circumstances (detailed
below) that loop may contain references pointing to already collected
objects, thus leading to SIGSEGV when those references are used.
This may happen with the following sequence of events ("VM" is the name
used in lsqlite and describes the same thing as "statement"):
1. A finalized statement is created (for example, by preparing an empty
string or a string with no statement that is still grammatically valid).
2. This statement goes out of scope before the DB object it's associated
with does and is garbage collected.
3. When it's garbage collected, dbvm_gc method is called, which checks
for svm->vm being not NULL.
4. Since the VM is already finalized, cleanupvm method is not called,
so the VM reference is not removed from the table of VMs tracked for
that DB.
5. When the DB is finally closed or garbage collected, all the VMs
associated with it are accessed to be finalized, including the ones that
have been garbage collected and have invalid references (thus leading
to a memory access error).
Here is an example of a stacktrace from the resulting SIGSEGV:
70000003de20 5df71a getgeneric+26
70000003fac0 5dfc7f luaH_get+111
70000003faf0 5e06c8 luaH_set+40
70000003fb20 5c5bd7 aux_rawset+55
70000003fb50 5c70cb lua_rawset+27
70000003fb60 4fa8e7 cleanupvm+71
70000003fb80 4fa988 cleanupdb+88
70000003fbc0 4fe899 db_gc+41
One way to fix this is to use userdata references (which anchor their
targets) instead of lightuserdata references (which do not), but this
would prevent the targets (VMs) from being garbage collected until the
DB itself is garbage collected, so this needs to be combined with
weakening the keys in the DB table. The code in cleanupdb to remove the
VM references is no longer needed, as this is handled by having weak keys.
The patch also switches to using close_v2, as it is intended for use
with garbage collected languages where the order in which destructors
are called is arbitrary, as is the case here.
* Remove GC collection from redbean SQLite session
The behavior of sqlite3session_delete is undefined after the DB
connection is closed, so we need to avoid calling it from gc handler.
It's been superseded by token bucket processing, does not take time
into considerations (only the number of fragments), and affects file
uploads that may require a large number of reads.
This commit also paves the way for initial IPv6 support in `curl.com` by specifying
`AF_UNSPEC` for the address family in the hints passed to `getaddrinfo()`.
They'll now automatically create empty static archives for system
libraries that are provided by Cosmopolitan Libc. This helps make
configure scripts less confused. Musl does the same thing.

This change includes a fix to Fetch() where an out of bounds memory read
could happen, when the reverse proxied endpoint omits the content-length
header. This caused a bunch of NUL chars to appear on TurfWar's /statusz
since it wouldn't actually overrun the buffer, and if it did it would've
been caught by MODE=asan builds.
All tests pass now under WSL2. They should pass under WSL1 too, but only
WSL2 is integrated into the test fleet right now. This change also fills
in some gaps in the error numbers.

If threads are being used, then fork() will now acquire and release and
runtime locks so that fork() may be safely used from threads. This also
makes vfork() thread safe, because pthread mutexes will do nothing when
the process is a child of vfork(). More torture tests have been written
to confirm this all works like a charm. Additionally:
- Invent hexpcpy() api
- Rename nsync_malloc_() to kmalloc()
- Complete posix named semaphore implementation
- Make pthread_create() asynchronous signal safe
- Add rm, rmdir, and touch to command interpreter builtins
- Invent sigisprecious() and modify sigset functions to use it
- Add unit tests for posix_spawn() attributes and fix its bugs
One unresolved problem is the reclaiming of *NSYNC waiter memory in the
forked child processes, within apps which have threads waiting on locks
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 addresses various open source compatibility issues, so that
we pass 313/411 of the tests in https://github.com/jart/libc-test where
earlier today we were passing about 30/411 of them, due to header toil.
Please note that Glibc only passes 341/411 so 313 today is pretty good!
- Make the conformance of libc/isystem/ headers nearly perfect
- Import more of the remaining math library routines from Musl
- Fix inconsistencies with type signatures of calls like umask
- Write tests for getpriority/setpriority which work great now
- conform to `struct sockaddr *` on remaining socket functions
- Import a bunch of uninteresting stdlib functions e.g. rand48
- Introduce readdir_r, scandir, pthread_kill, sigsetjmp, etc..
Follow the instructions in our `tool/scripts/cosmocc` toolchain to run
these tests yourself. You use `make CC=cosmocc` on the test repository
You can now do things like implement mutexes using futexes in your
redbean lua code. This provides the fastest possible inter-process
communication for your production systems when SQLite alone as ipc
or things like pipes aren't sufficient.
* Proof of concept of sqlite serialization
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.
* Change demo for sqlite serialization
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.
* Fix sqlite3_deserialize parameters
The call to the sqlite3 library for the deserilization wasn't fully correct. This should fix the size parameters.
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
This makes it possible for us to use system() and popen() with paths
that redirect to filenames that contain spaces, e.g.
system("echo.com hello >\"hello there.txt\"")
It's difficult to solve this problem, because WIN32 only allows passing
one single argument when launching programs and each program is allowed
to tokenize that however it wants. Most software follows the convention
of cmd.exe which is poorly documented and positively byzantine.
In the future we're going to solve this by not using cmd.exe at all and
instead embedding the cocmd.com interpreter into the system() function.
In the meantime, our documentation has been updated to help recalibrate
any expectation the user might hold regarding the security of using the
Windows command interpreter.
Fixes#644
This change reduces the .bss memory requirement for all executables by
O(64kb). The brk system calls are now fully tested and figured out and
might be useful for tiny programs that only target System Five.
This change improves copy_file_range(), sendfile(), splice(), openpty(),
closefrom(), close_range(), fadvise() and posix_fadvise() in addition to
writing tests that confirm things like errno and seeking behavior across
platforms. We now less aggressively polyfill behavior with some of these
functions when the platform support isn't available. Please see:
https://justine.lol/cosmopolitan/functions.html
This change upgrades to the latest Chromium Zlib, fixes bugs in redbean,
and introduces better support for reverse proxies like Cloudflare. This
change improves the security of redbean and it's recommended that users
upgrade to the release that'll follow. This change also updates the docs
to clarify how to use the security tools redbean provides e.g. pledge(),
unveil(), and the MODE=asan builds which improve memory safety.
Doing this makes binaries tinier, since we don't need to have all the
extra code for supporting a 32-bit address space. It also benefits us
because we're able to use WIN32 futexes, which makes locking simpler.
b69f3d2488 is what officially ended our
Windows 7 support. This change is merely a formalization. You can use
old versions of Cosmo now and forevermore if you need Windows 7 since
our repository is hermetic and vendors all its dependencies.
Won't fix#617
- Fix preadv() and pwritev() for old distros
- Introduce _npassert() and _unassert() macros
- Prove that file locks work properly on Windows
- Support fcntl(F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC) on more systems
This fixes off-by-one bugs, as well as missing carriage returns
caused by command truncation. When the terminal's width is 0 or
unknown, line feeds are used instead. Otherwise, the command is
padded with spaces to clear the line when the terminal is dumb.
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.
The organization of the source files is now much more rational.
Old experiments that didn't work out are now deleted. Naming of
things like files is now more intuitive.
This change fixes#496 where ASAN spotted a race condition that could
happen in multithreaded programs, with more than OPEN_MAX descriptors
when using ZipOS or Windows NT, which require tracking open file info
and this change fixes that table so it never relocates, thus allowing
us to continue to enjoy the benefits of avoiding locks while reading.
This change tunes the default stack size for the outside world to 8mb
while at the same time, reducing Cosmopolitan's default stack size to
64kb. You can override the stack size using STATIC_STACK_SIZE(). Your
build scripts should point to o//ape/public/ape.lds
This change also fixes the definition of SOMAXCONN and removes AF_RDS
since it's not polyfilled and Python 3.11 complained.
- You can now use _gc(malloc()) in multithreaded programs
- This change fixes a bug where fork() on NT disabled TLS
- Fixed TLS code morphing on XNU/NT, for R8-R15 registers
This is the same as `unreachable` except it always traps violations,
even if we're not running in MODE=dbg. This is useful for impossible
conditions relating to system calls. It avoids terrifying bugs where
control falls through to an unrelated function.
This change fixes a nasty bug where SIG_IGN and SIG_DFL weren't working
as advertised on BSDs. This change also fixes the tkill() definition on
MacOS so it maps to __pthread_kill().
This change restores the .symtab symbol table files in our flagship
programs (e.g. redbean.com, python.com) needed to show backtraces. This
also rolls back earlier changes to zip.com w.r.t. temp directories since
the right way to do it turned out to be the -b DIR flag.
This change also improves the performance of zip.com. It turned out
mmap() wasn't being used, because zip.com was assuming a 4096-byte
granularity, but cosmo requires 65536. There was also a chance to speed
up stdio scanning using the unlocked functions.
