on arm, the location of the saved-signal-mask flag and mask were off
by one between sigsetjmp and siglongjmp, causing incorrect behavior
restoring the signal mask. this is because the siglongjmp code assumed
an extra slot was in the non-sig jmp_buf for the flag, but arm did not
have this. now, the extra slot is removed for all archs since it was
useless.
also, arm eabi requires jmp_buf to have 8-byte alignment. we achieve
that using long long as the type rather than with non-portable gcc
attribute tags.
the new version is largely the work of Solar Designer, with minor
changes for integration with musl. compared to the old code, text size
is reduced by about 7k, stack space usage by about 70k, and
performance is greatly improved by avoiding expensive calculation of
constant tables on each run.
this version also adds support for extended des-based password hashes,
which allow for unlimited key (password) length and configurable
iteration counts.
i've also published the interface for crypt_r in a new crypt.h header.
especially since this is not a standard interface, i did not feel
compelled to match the glibc abi for the crypt_data structure. the
glibc structure is way too big to allocate on the stack; in fact it's
so big that the first usage may cause the main thread to exceed its
pre-committed stack size of 128k and thus could cause the program to
crash even on systems with overcommit disabled. the only legitimate
use of crypt_data for crypt_r is to store the hash string to return,
so i've reserved 256 bytes, which should be more than sufficient
(longest known password hashes are ~60 characters, and beyond that is
possibly even exceeding some implementations' passwd file field size
limit).
on old kernels, there's no way to detect errors; we must assume
negative syscall return values are pgrp ids. but if the F_GETOWN_EX
fcntl works, we can get a reliable answer.
based on patch by Emil Renner Berthing, with minor changes to dirent.h
for LFS64 and organization of declarations
this code should work unmodified once a real strverscmp is added, but
I've been hesitant to add it because the GNU strverscmp behavior is
harmful in a lot of cases (for instance if you have numeric filenames
in hex). at some point I plan on trying to design a variant of the
algorithm that behaves better on a mix of filename styles.
this is ugly and stupid, but now that the *64 symbol names exist, a
lot of broken GNU software detects them in configure, then either
breaks during build due to missing off64_t definition, or attempts to
compile without function declarations/prototypes. "fixing" it here is
easier than telling everyone to add yet another feature test macro to
their builds.
i originally made it the same size as the bloated GNU version, which
contains space for saved signal mask, but this makes some structures
containing jmp_buf become much larger for no benefit. we will never
use the signal mask field with plain setjmp; sigsetjmp serves that
purpose.
i made a best attempt, but the intended semantics of this function are
fundamentally contradictory. there is no consistent way to handle
ownership of locks when forking a multi-threaded process. the code
could have worked by accident for programs that only used normal
mutexes and nothing else (since they don't actually store or care
about their owner), but that's about it. broken-by-design interfaces
that aren't even in glibc (only solaris) don't belong in musl.
there is no reason to avoid multiple identical macro definitions; this
is perfectly legal C, and even with the maximal warning options
enabled, gcc does not issue any warning for it.
we do not bother making h_errno thread-local since the only interfaces
that use it are inherently non-thread-safe. but still use the
potentially-thread-local ABI to access it just to avoid lock-in.
this one is for program(s|ers) who haven't heard of uint16_t and
uint32_t (which are obviously the correct types for use in such
situations, as they're the argument/return types for ntohs/htons and
ntohl/htonl).
the non-prototype declaration of basename in string.h is an ugly
compromise to avoid breaking 2 types of broken software:
1. programs which assume basename is declared in string.h and thus
would suffer from dangerous pointer-truncation if an implicit
declaration were used.
2. programs which include string.h with _GNU_SOURCE defined but then
declare their own prototype for basename using the incorrect GNU
signature for the function (which would clash with a correct
prototype).
however, since C++ does not have non-prototype declarations and
interprets them as prototypes for a function with no arguments, we
must omit it when compiling C++ code. thankfully, all known broken
apps that suffer from the above issues are written in C, not C++.
this only works with gcc 4.6 and later, but it allows us to support
non-default endianness on archs like arm, mips, ppc, etc. that can do
both without having separate header sets for both variants, and it
saves one #include even on fixed-endianness archs like x86.
apparently some packages see stropts.h and want to be able to use
this. the implementation checks that the file descriptor is valid by
using fcntl/F_GETFD so it can report an error if not (as specified).
two issues: (1) the type was wrong (unsigned instead of signed int),
and (2) the value of FP_ILOGBNAN should be INT_MIN rather than INT_MAX
to match the ABI. this is also much more useful since INT_MAX
corresponds to a valid input (infinity). the standard would allow us
to set FP_ILOGB0 to -INT_MAX instead of INT_MIN, which would give us
distinct values for ilogb(0) and ilogb(NAN), but the benefit seems way
too small to justify ignoring the ABI.
note that the macro is just a "portable" (to any twos complement
system where signed and unsigned int have the same width) way to write
INT_MIN without needing limits.h. it's valid to use this method since
these macros are not required to work in #if directives.
musl does not support legacy 32-bit-off_t whatsoever. off_t is always
64 bit, and correct programs that use off_t and the standard functions
will just work out of the box. (on glibc, they would require
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 to work.) however, some programs instead define
_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE and use alternate versions of all the standard
types and functions with "64" appended to their names.
we do not want code to actually get linked against these functions
(it's ugly and inconsistent), so macros are used instead of prototypes
with weak aliases in the library itself. eventually the weak aliases
may be added at the library level for the sake of using code that was
originally built against glibc, but the macros will still be the
desired solution in the headers.
