descriptors against -1 (as appropriate).
* add actual checks which to detect stuff that would trigger_DIAGASSERT(),
and attempt to return a sane error condition.
* knf some code
* remove some `register' decls.
the first two items result in the addition of code similar to the
following in various functions:
_DIAGASSERT(path != NULL)
#ifdef _DIAGNOSTIC
if (path == NULL) {
errno = EFAULT;
return (-1);
}
#endif
identifier namespace by renaming non standard functions and variables
such that they have a leading underscore. The library will use those
names internally. Weak aliases are used to provide the original names
to the API.
This is only the first part of this change. It is most of the functions
which are implemented in C for all NetBSD ports. Subsequent changes are
to add the same support to the remaining C files, to assembly files, and
to the automagically generated assembly source used for system calls.
When all of the above is done, ports with weak alias support should add
a definition for __weak_alias to <sys/cdefs.h>.
"Some historical implementations either block or ignore the signals
SIGINT, SIGQUIT, and SIGHUP while waiting for the child process to
terminate. Since this behavior is not described in POSIX.2, such
implementations are not conforming."
