2017-08-11disable global visibility override hack (vis.h) by defaultRich Felker1-2/+3
neither current compilers nor linkers treat protected visibility the way I expected, as having fixed source-level semantics rather than being dependent on target-specific ABI details, and change seems unlikely. while the use here does not actually depend on the specific semantics, at least some versions of some linkers, especially lld, refuse to allow linking to a libc.so where the symbols have protected visibility. this cannot be detected at configure-time because linking libc.so itself works fine, and because even if we could test linking an application against libc.so successfully, we could not justifiably assume that the same linker used to link libc.so would also be used later to link applications. disable the vis.h hack by default at the configure level, but add an explicit "auto" option to request the old configure-time detection rather than just removing it. this leaves it easy to evaluate whether it actually resulted in significant size or performance benefits while ensuring that out-of-the-box builds are not unlinkable for some users. fortunately, preliminary evaluation suggests that at least x86_64, arm, and aarch64 don't suffer at all from the change, and impact on other archs is low. if low is not low enough, it should not be hard to analyze where the significant PLT call ABI costs are present and mitigate them without the hack.
2017-07-31add _NL_LOCALE_NAME extension to nl_langinfoRich Felker2-0/+10
since setlocale(cat, NULL) is required to return the setting for the global locale, there is no standard mechanism to obtain the name of the currently active thread-local locale set by uselocale. this makes it impossible for application/library software to load appropriate translations, etc. unless using the gettext implementation provided by libc, which has privileged access to libc internals. to fill this gap, glibc introduced the _NL_LOCALE_NAME macro which can be used with nl_langinfo to obtain the name. GNU gettext/gnulib code already use this functionality on glibc, and can easily be adapted to make use of it on non-glibc systems if it's available; for other systems they poke at locale implementation internals, which we want to avoid. this patch provides a compatible interface to the one glibc introduced.
2017-07-04fix missing volatile qualifier on lock in __get_localeJens Gustedt1-1/+1
2017-07-04remove ineffective compiler assist from printfAlexander Monakov2-4/+0
The switch statement has no 'default:' case and the function ends immediately following the switch, so the extra comparison did not communicate any extra information to the compiler.
2017-07-04fix undefined behavior in ptraceAlexander Monakov1-2/+6
2017-07-04unify the use of FUTEX_PRIVATEJens Gustedt4-4/+4
The flag 1<<7 is used in several places for different purposes that are not always easy to distinguish. Mark those usages that correspond to the flag that is used by the kernel for futexes.
2017-07-04fix undefined behavior in freeAlexander Monakov1-2/+3
2017-07-04reapply va_arg hacks removal to wprintfAlexander Monakov1-26/+1
commit 58e2396a9aa23c132faf4198ca4d779c84955b38 missed that the same code was duplicated in implementation of vfwprintf.
2017-07-04remove useless declarations in string.hAlexander Monakov1-2/+0
The two functions str{,n}casecmp_l are specified to be declared in <strings.h> which is already included from <string.h> under _GNU_SOURCE.
2017-07-04allow specifying argv[0] when invoking a program via ldso commandRich Felker1-0/+7
previously, the pathname used to load the program was always used as argv[0]. the default remains the same, but a new --argv0 option can be used to provide a different value.
2017-07-04fix regression in dlopen promotion from RTLD_LOCAL to RTLD_GLOBALRich Felker1-1/+6
commit 4ff234f6cba96403b5de6d29d48a59fd73252040 inadvertently removed the logic to do this when changing the representation of global status.
2017-07-04ldso: avoid spurious & possible erroneous work for libs with no depsRich Felker1-4/+7
a null pointer for a library's deps list was ambiguous: it could indicate either no dependencies or that the dependency list had not yet been populated. inability to distinguish could lead to spurious work when dlopen is called multiple times on a library with no deps, and due to related bugs, could actually cause other libraries to falsely appear as dependencies, translating into false positives for dlsym. avoid the problem by always initializing the deps pointer, pointing to an empty list if there are no deps. rather than wasting memory and introducing another failure path by allocating an empty list per library, simply share a global dummy list. further fixes will be needed for related bugs, and much of this code may end up being replaced.
2017-06-23powerpc64: add single-instruction math functionsRich Felker22-0/+290
while the official elfv2 abi for "powerpc64le" sets power8 as the baseline isa, we use it for both little and big endian powerpc64 targets and need to maintain compatibility with pre-power8 models. the instructions for sqrt, fabs, and fma are in the baseline isa; support for the rest is conditional via predefined isa-level macros. patch by David Edelsohn.
2017-06-23fix clang CFLAGS checks and silence unused argument warningsDmitry Golovin1-0/+8
2017-06-23s390x: add single-instruction math functionsRich Felker24-0/+360
these were introduced in z196 and not available in the baseline (z900) ISA level. use __HTM__ as an alternate indicator for ISA level, since gcc did not define __ARCH__ until 7.x. patch by David Edelsohn.
2017-06-22fix arm run-time abi string functionsSzabolcs Nagy6-36/+76
in arm rtabi these __aeabi_* functions have special abi (they are only allowed to clobber r0,r1,r2,r3,ip,lr,cpsr), so they cannot be simple wrappers around normal string functions (which may clobber other registers), the safest solution is to write them in asm, a minimalistic implementation works because these are not supposed to be emitted by compilers or used in general.
2017-06-21fix regression in getspnam[_r] error code for insufficient buffer sizeRich Felker1-1/+1
commit 2d7d05f031e014068a61d3076c6178513395d2ae wrongly changed ERANGE to EINVAL, likely as the result of copy-and-paste error.
2017-06-21fix omission of microblaze user.h definitionsRich Felker1-1/+25
2017-06-20fix iconv conversions for iso88592-iso885916Bartosz Brachaczek1-1/+1
commit 97bd6b09dbe7478d5a90a06ecd9e5b59389d8eb9 refactored the table lookup into a function and introduced an error in index computation. the error caused garbage to be read from the table if the given charmap had a non-zero number of elided entries.
2017-06-20handle errors from localtime_r in ctime_rRich Felker1-3/+2
POSIX requires ctime_r return a null pointer on failure, which can occur if the input time_t value is not representable in broken down form. based on patch by Alexander Monakov.
2017-06-15set errno when getpw*_r, getgr*_r, and getspnam_r failRich Felker3-3/+7
these functions return an error code, and are not explicitly documented to set errno, but they are nonstandard and the historical implementations do set errno as well, and some applications expect this behavior. do likewise for compatibility. patch by Rudolph Pereira.
2017-06-15handle localtime errors in ctimeRich Felker1-1/+3
ctime passes the result from localtime directly to asctime. But in case of error, localtime returns 0. This causes an error (NULL pointer dereference) in asctime. based on patch by Omer Anson.
2017-06-15handle mremap failure in realloc of mmap-serviced allocationsRich Felker1-1/+2
mremap seems to always fail on nommu, and on some non-Linux implementations of the Linux syscall API, it at least fails to increase allocation size, and may fail to move (i.e. defragment) the existing mapping when shrinking it too. instead of failing realloc or leaving an over-sized allocation that may waste a large amount of memory, fallback to malloc-memcpy-free if mremap fails.
2017-06-14getdate: correctly specify error numberA. Wilcox1-1/+2
POSIX defines getdate error #5 as: "An I/O error is encountered while reading the template file." POSIX defines getdate error #7 as: "There is no line in the template that matches the input." This change correctly disambiguates between the two error conditions.
2017-06-14catopen: set errno to EOPNOTSUPPA. Wilcox1-0/+2
Per 1003.1-2008 (2016 ed.), catopen must set errno on failure. We set errno to EOPNOTSUPP because musl does not currently support message catalogues.
2017-06-08fix glob failure to match plain "/" to root directoryRich Felker1-1/+1
the check to prevent matching empty string wrongly blocked matching of "/" due to checking emptiness after stripping leading slashes rather than checking the full original argument string. simplified from patch by Julien Ramseier.
2017-06-08use hard-coded sh4a atomic opcodes to avoid linker errors on shRich Felker1-4/+4
when using the sh4a opcodes, the assembler tags the resulting object file as requiring sh4a. the linker then refuses to (static) link it with object files marked as requiring j2, since there is no isa level that includes both sh4a and j2 instructions.
2017-05-31towupper/towlower: fast path for ascii charsNatanael Copa1-3/+3
Make a fast path for ascii chars which is assumed to be the most common case. This has significant performance benefit on xml json and similar
2017-05-31remove long-obsolete clang workarounds from mips* syscall_arch.h filesRich Felker3-157/+0
at one point, clang reportedly failed to support the asm register constraints needed for inline syscalls. versions of clang that old have much bigger problems that preclude using them to compile musl libc.
2017-05-31fix fstatat syscall on mips64Rich Felker1-3/+22
mips64 requires 'struct stat' conversion due to incorrect 32-bit fields where time_t should be in the kernel version of the structure. syscall_arch.h already performed the correct translation for stat, fstat, and lstat syscalls, but omitted special handling for fstatat.
2017-05-27fix fchown fallback on arches without chown(2)Samuel Holland1-1/+1
The flags argument was missing, causing uninitalized data to be passed to fchownat(2). The correct value of flags should match the fallback for chown(3).
2017-05-27fix iconv conversions to legacy 8bit encodingsRich Felker1-9/+12
there was missing reverse-conversion logic for the case, handled specially in the character set tables, where a byte represents a unicode codepoint with the same value. this patch adds code to handle the case, and refactors the two-level 10-bit table lookup for legacy character sets into a function to avoid repeating it yet another time as part of the fix.
2017-04-22have posix_spawnattr_setflags check for supported flagsRich Felker1-0/+11
per POSIX, EINVAL is not a mandatory error, only an optional one. but reporting unsupported flags allows an application to fallback gracefully when a requested feature is not supported. this is not helpful now, but it may be in the future if additional flags are added. had this checking been present before, applications would have been able to check for the newly-added POSIX_SPAWN_SETSID feature (added in commit bb439bb17108b67f3df9c9af824d3a607b5b059d) at runtime.
2017-04-22add no-op POSIX_SPAWN_USEVFORK to spawn.hRich Felker1-0/+1
the bit is reserved anyway for ABI-compat reasons; this documents it and makes it so we can have posix_spawnattr_setflags check for flag validity without hard-coding an anonymous bit value.
2017-04-22s390x: provide sigcontext struct definitionBobby Bingham1-0/+15
This structure was missed when creating the s390x port. This is based on the report and patch from William Pitcock, but with a modified structure defintion to more closely match the kernel's definition.
2017-04-22implement new posix_spawn flag POSIX_SPAWN_SETSIDRich Felker2-0/+5
this functionality has been adopted for inclusion in the next issue of POSIX as the result of Austin Group issue #1044. based on patch by Daurnimator.
2017-04-22remove va_arg hacks in printf core with undefined behaviorRich Felker1-26/+1
the code being removed was written to optimize for size assuming the compiler cannot collapse code paths for different types with the same underlying representation. modern compilers sometimes succeed in making this optimization themselves, but either way it's a small size difference and not worth the source-level complexity or the UB involved in this hack. some incorrect use of va_arg still remains, particularly use of void * where the actual argument has a different pointer type. fixing this requires some actual code additions, rather than just removing cruft, so I'm leaving it to be done later as a separate commit.
2017-04-21make ttyname[_r] return ENODEV rather than ENOENTRich Felker1-1/+1
commit 0a950dcf15bb9f7274c804dca490e9e20e475f3e added checking that the pathname a tty device was opened with actually matches the device, which can fail to hold when a container inherits a tty from outside the container. the error code added at the time was ENOENT; however, discussions between affected applications and glibc developers resulted in glibc adopting ENODEV as the error for this condition, and this has now been documented in the man pages project as well. adopt the same error code for consistency. patch by Christian Brauner.
2017-04-21fix regression in support for resolv.conf attempts optionRich Felker1-2/+2
commit d6cb08bcaca4ff1f921375510ca72bccea969c75 moved the code and introduced an incorrect string offset for the new parsing, probably due to a copy-and-paste error. patch by Stefan Sedich.
2017-04-21fix scalbn when result is in the subnormal rangeSzabolcs Nagy3-12/+14
in nearest rounding mode scalbn could introduce double rounding error when an intermediate value and the final result were both in the subnormal range e.g. scalbn(0x1.7ffffffffffffp-1, -1073) returned 0x1p-1073 instead of 0x1p-1074, because the intermediate computation got rounded to 0x1.8p-1023. with the fix an intermediate value can only be in the subnormal range if the final result is 0 which is correct even after double rounding. (there still can be two roundings so signals may be raised twice, but that's only observable with trapping exceptions which is not supported.)
2017-04-21allow full-range file offsets to mmap on archs with 64-bit syscall argsRich Felker1-1/+1
normally 32-bit archs use the mmap2 syscall and are limited to an offset of 2^32 pages. however some 32-bit archs (mainly ILP32-on-64 ones like x32) have 64-bit syscall argument slots and thus can accept the full range. don't artifically limit them.
2017-04-11fix dl_iterate_phdr in static PIE binariesRich Felker1-0/+5
analogous to commit 5bf7eba213cacc4c1220627c91c28deff2ffecda, use of AT_PHDR/PT_PHDR does not actually work to find the program base, and the method with _DYNAMIC vs PT_DYNAMIC must be used as an alternative. patch by Shiz, along with testing to confirm that this fixes unwinding in static PIE.
2017-04-11fix read past end of buffer in getaddrinfo backendRich Felker1-2/+2
due to testing buf[i].family==AF_INET before checking i==cnt, it was possible to read past the end of the array, or past the valid part. in practice, without active bounds/indeterminate-value checking by the compiler, the worst that happened was failure to return early and optimize out the sorting that's unneeded for v4-only results. returning on i==cnt-1 rather than i==cnt would be an alternate fix, but the approach this patch takes is more idiomatic and less error-prone. patch by Timo Teräs.
2017-03-21aarch64: add single instruction math functionsSzabolcs Nagy34-24/+226
this should increase performance and reduce code size on aarch64. the compiled code was checked against using __builtin_* instead of inline asm with gcc-6.2.0. lrint is two instructions. c with inline asm is used because it is safer than a pure asm implementation, this prevents ll{rint,round} to be an alias of l{rint,round} (because the types don't match) and depends on gcc style inline asm support. ceil, floor, round, trunc can either raise inexact on finite non-integer inputs or not raise any exceptions. the new implementation does not raise exceptions while the generic c code does. on aarch64, the underflow exception is signaled before rounding (ieee 754 allows both before and after rounding, but it must be consistent), the generic fma c code signals it after rounding so using single instruction fixes a slight conformance issue too.
2017-03-21fix strptime output for %C without %yJulien Ramseier1-2/+3
in this case, a potentially-uninitialized or unrelated existing value in tm_year was being used. instead use 0 if %y was not present.
2017-03-21fix processing of strptime %p formatJulien Ramseier1-0/+2
string pointer was not advanced after matching.
2017-03-21fix off-by-one in strptime %jJulien Ramseier1-0/+1
tm_yday range is 0-365 while %j is 1-366
2017-03-21regex: fix newline matching with negated bracketsJulien Ramseier1-0/+14
With REG_NEWLINE, POSIX says: "A <newline> in string shall not be matched by a period outside a bracket expression or by any form of a non-matching list"
2017-03-21increase limit on locale name length from 15 to 23 bytesRich Felker2-2/+2
the old limit was one byte too short to support locale names of the form xx_XX.UTF-8@modifier where modifier is more than 3 bytes, a form which various real-world locale names take. the problem could be avoided by omitting the useless ".UTF-8" part, but users may need to have it present when operating on mixed-libc systems or when it will be carried over (e.g. across ssh) to other systems. the new limit is chosen sufficient for existing/reasonable locale names while still keeping the size of setlocale's static buffer small. also add locale_impl.h to the Makefile's list of headers which force rebuild of source files, to prevent dangerously inconsistent object files from getting used after this change.
