statically initialized _DefaultRuneLocale.rl_wctrans field.
so we can re-const-ify _DefaultRuneLocale.
pkgsrc/shells/standalone-tcsh should be rebuild,
because it's staticaly linked binary.
The new rune code abuses __UNCONST to lazily initialize _RuneLocale. If
that happens to be the _DefaultRuneLocale which is const, the program will
core-dump because it will attempt to write to read-only memory. Catch this
and clone a copy of the locale and return it. The reason we don't see
everything core-dumping is because our shared library code probably loads
the text segment COW so it works (Is there an mprotect missing somewhere?).
But on statically linked binaries this is not the case and we die.
XXX[1]: Vet the code so that we are sure that there is no more of that
happening trying to get rid of much of the __UNCONST'ing.
XXX[2]: This needs to be fixed for 5.0 and all related fixes.
XXX[3]: There is one place in the code where _DefaultRuneLocale is treated
specially, does the patch break things?
ok'ed by core and releng.
(thanks for agc@, snj@ and i'm sorry for long time patience).
[libc]
- localeio.[ch] and lc*.[ch] in src/lib/libc/locale was replaced by
new locale-db implementation using citrus_db backend,
see src/lib/libc/citrus/citrus_lc_*.[ch].
- add citrus_bcs_strtou?l.c. don't use strtou?l locale implementation
internally, because they're locale-aware function.
- add some stubs for multi-locale issue, see {current,global}_locale.c.
- remove some obsolete file, setrunelocale.c, ___runetype_mb.c.
- remove __savectype() from ctypeio.[ch].
[tools]
- mklocale(1): add new option ``-t'' that generates new style
LC_{MONETARY,NUMERIC,TIME,MESSAGES} locale-db format.
- chrtbl(1): added ctypeio.[ch] for __savectype().
[locale-db]
- added en_US.US-ASCII locale.
- removed some shareable locale definition file:
en_US.US-ASCII -> en_US.ISO8859-1, en_US.UTF-8
zh_CN.eucCN -> zh_CN.GB18030
and more...see src/share/locale/*/Makefile.
- remove obsoleted locale sr_YU, added new locale sr_ME, sr_RS.
- change locale name ja_JP.ISO2022-JP* -> ja_JP.ISO-2022-JP*
for X11's locale.alias file alignments.
- fix regression test, wrong wcs?width(3), NAN/INF usage.
i tested release-build following arch:
i386, amd64, hpc{mips,arm,sh}, sparc64, vax.
citrus_lc_*.[ch] also can read old-plain-text style locale-db.
so that backward compatibility is keeped, but lc*.[ch] can't read
new citrus_db'ed locale-db and localeio.c never check sanity,
so forward compatibility is broken ;-<
old mklocale(1) doesn't know -t option, so you have to rebuild toolchain.
- make sure that __nbrune_t is unsigned 32bit clean and
- fix wrong copyright notice in the last commit.
