These were overlooked when DT_RELR was added in commit
d32dadd60e, potentially breaking
software that treats presence of the DT_RELR macro as implying they
exist.
This is the only missing part in struct statvfs. The LSB calls
[f]statfs() deprecated, and its weird types are definitely
off-putting. However, its use is required to get f_type.
Instead, allocate one of the six spares to f_type, copied directly
from struct statfs. This then becomes a small extension to the
standard interface on Linux, instead of two different interfaces, one
of which is quite odd due to being an ABI type, and there no longer is
any reason to use statfs().
The underlying kernel type is a mess, but all architectures agree on u32
(or more) for the ABI, and all filesystem magicks are 32-bit integers.
Since commit 6567db65f4 (prior to
1.0.0), the spare slots have been zero-filled, so on all versions that
may be reasonably be encountered in the wild, applications can rely on
a nonzero f_type as indication that the new field has been filled in.
the result of the 0xffff mask with the exit status could have bit 15
set, in which case multiplying by 0x10001 overflows 32-bit signed int.
making the multiply unsigned avoids the overflow. it also changes the
sign extension behavior of the subsequent >> operation, but the
affected bits are all unwanted anyway and all discarded by the cast to
short.
memmem has been adopted for the next issue of POSIX (outcome of
tracker item 1061). since mem* is in the reserved namespace for
string.h it's already fully conforming to expose it by default, so
just do so.
these badly pollute the namespace with macros whenever _GNU_SOURCE is
defined, which is always the case with g++, and especially tends to
interfere with C++ constructs.
as our implementation of these was macro-only, their removal cannot
affect any existing binaries. at the source level, portable software
should be prepared for them not to exist.
for now, they are left in place with explicit _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE.
this provides an easy temporary path for integrators/distributions to
get packages building again right away if they break while working on
a proper, upstreamable fix. the intent is that this be a very
short-term measure and that the macros be removed entirely in the next
release cycle.
this was apparently omitted long ago out of a lack of understanding of
its importance and the fact that POSIX doesn't specify it. despite not
being officially standardized, however, it turns out that at least
AIX, glibc, NetBSD, OpenBSD, QNX, and Solaris document and support it.
in certain usage cases, such as implementing a DNS gateway on top of
the stub resolver interfaces, it's necessary to distinguish the case
where a name does not exit (NxDomain) from one where it exists but has
no addresses (or other records) of the requested type (NODATA). in
fact, even the legacy gethostbyname API had this distinction, which we
were previously unable to support correctly because the backend lacked
it.
apart from fixing an important functionality gap, adding this
distinction helps clarify to users how search domain fallback works
(falling back in cases corresponding to EAI_NONAME, not in ones
corresponding to EAI_NODATA), a topic that has been a source of
ongoing confusion and frustration.
as a result of this change, EAI_NONAME is no longer a valid universal
error code for getaddrinfo in the case where AI_ADDRCONFIG has
suppressed use of all address families. in order to return an accurate
result in this case, getaddrinfo is modified to still perform at least
one lookup. this will almost surely fail (with a network error, since
there is no v4 or v6 network to query DNS over) unless a result comes
from the hosts file or from ip literal parsing, but in case it does
succeed, the result is replaced by EAI_NODATA.
glibc has a related error code, EAI_ADDRFAMILY, that could be used for
the AI_ADDRCONFIG case and certain NODATA cases, but distinguishing
them properly in full generality seems to require additional DNS
queries that are otherwise not useful. on glibc, it is only used for
ip literals with mismatching family, not for DNS or hosts file results
where the name has addresses only in the opposite family. since this
seems misleading and inconsistent, and since EAI_NODATA already covers
the semantic case where the "name" exists but doesn't have any
addresses in the requested family, we do not adopt EAI_ADDRFAMILY at
this time. this could be changed at some point if desired, but the
logic for getting all the corner cases with AI_ADDRCONFIG right is
slightly nontrivial.
as a result of ISA extensions exploding register file sizes on some
archs, using a constant for minimum signal stack size no longer seems
viably future-proof. add sysconf keys allowing the kernel to provide a
machine-dependent minimum applications can query to ensure they
allocate sufficient space for stacks. the key names and indices align
with the same functionality in glibc.
see commit d5a5045382 for previous
action on this subject.
ultimately, the macros MINSIGSTKSZ and SIGSTKSZ probably need to be
deprecated, but that is standards-amendment work outside the scope of
a single implementation.
_CS_POSIX_V7_THREADS_CFLAGS and _CS_POSIX_V7_THREADS_LDFLAGS have been
missing for a long time, which is a conformance defect. we were
waiting on glibc to add them or at least agree on the numeric values
they will have so as to keep the numbering aligned. it looks like they
will be added to glibc with these numbers, and in any case, this list
does not have any significant churn that would result in the numbers
getting taken.

which is likely the reason why SYS_SECCOMP was previously missing (was new
in linux v3.5).

entry: Use different define for selector variable in SUD
redirect syscalls to a userspace handler via SIGSYS, except for a specific
range of code. can be toggled via a memory write to a selector variable.
mainly for wine.
these are linux specific constants. glibc exposes them behind
_GNU_SOURCE, but, since SEEK_* is reserved for the implementation, we
can simply define them. furthermore, since they can't be used with
fseek() and other functions that deal with FILE, we don't add them to
stdio.h.
we make qsort a wrapper by providing a wrapper_cmp function that uses
the extra argument as a function pointer. should be optimized to a tail
call on most architectures, as long as it's built with
-fomit-frame-pointer, so the performance impact should be minimal.
to keep the git history clean, for now qsort_r is implemented in qsort.c
and qsort is implemented in qsort_nr.c. qsort.c also received a few
trivial cleanups, including replacing (*cmp)() calls with cmp().
qsort_nr.c contains only wrapper_cmp and qsort as a qsort_r wrapper
itself.
since 4.1, gcc has had the __returns_twice__ attribute and has
required functions which return twice to carry it; however it's always
applied it automatically to known setjmp-like function names. clang
however does not do this reliably, at least not with -ffreestanding
and possibly under other conditions, resulting in silent emission of
wrong code.
since the symbol name setjmp is in no way special (setjmp is specified
as a macro that could expand to use any implementation-specific symbol
name or names), a compiler is justified not to do anything special
without further hints, and it's reasonable to do what we can to
provide such hints.
gcc 4.0.x and earlier do not recognize the attribute, so make use
conditional on __GNUC__ macros. clang and other gcc-like compilers
report (and have always reported) a later "GNUC" version so the
preprocessor conditional should function as desired for them as too.
undefine the internal macro after use so that nothing abuses it as a
public feature.
