this seems to have been overlooked, and resulted in breakage in
anything including sys/user.h.

neither is correct; different commands take different argument types,
and some take no arguments at all. I have a much larger overhaul of
fcntl prepared to address this, but it's not appropriate to commit
during freeze.
the immediate problem being addressed affects forward-compatibility on
x32: if new commands are added and they take pointers, but the
libc-level fcntl function is not aware of them, using long would
sign-extend the pointer to 64 bits and give the kernel an invalid
pointer. on the kernel side, the argument to fcntl is always treated
as unsigned long, so no harm is done by treating possibly-signed
integer arguments as unsigned. for every command that takes an integer
argument except for F_SETOWN, large integer arguments and negative
arguments are handled identically anyway. in the case of F_SETOWN, the
kernel is responsible for converting the argument which it received as
unsigned long to int, so the sign of negative arguments is recovered.
the other problem that will be addressed later is that the type passed
to va_arg does not match the type in the caller of fcntl. an advanced
compiler doing cross-translation-unit analysis could potentially see
this mismatch and issue warnings or otherwise make trouble.
on i386, this patch was confirmed not to alter the code generated by
gcc 4.7.3. in principle the generated code should not be affected on
any arch except x32.

the kernel uses long longs in the struct, but the documentation
says they're long. so we need to fixup the mismatch between the
userspace and kernelspace structs.
since the struct offers a mem_unit member, we can avoid truncation
by adjusting that value.

if we ever encounter other targets where error codes don't fit in the
8-bit range, the table should probably just be bumped to 16-bit, but
for now I don't want to increase the table size on all archs just
because of a bug in the mips abi.
|

most notably, it was failing to match sh4-*, etc., but in general the
explicit matching of hyphens for some archs was problematic because it
failed to accept simply the musl-style arch name (without a gcc-style
tuple) as an input. the original motivation of matching hyphens was to
prevent incorrectly identifying a 64-bit arch as the corresponding
32-bit arch (e.g. mips* matching mips64) but this is easily fixed by
simply checking (and for now, rejecting as unsupported) the relevant
64-bit archs.

default endianness for sh on linux is little, and while conventions
vary, "eb" seems to be the most widely used suffix for big endian.
|
|
linux, gcc, etc. all use "sh" as the name for the superh arch. there
was already some inconsistency internally in musl: the dynamic linker
was searching for "ld-musl-sh.path" as its path file despite its own
name being "ld-musl-superh.so.1". there was some sentiment in both
directions as to how to resolve the inconsistency, but overall "sh"
was favored.

per POSIX, ENOENT is reserved for invalid stream position; it is an
optional error and would only happen if the application performs
invalid seeks on the underlying file descriptor. however, linux's
getdents syscall also returns ENOENT if the directory was removed
between the time it was opened and the time of the read. we need to
catch this case and remap it to simple end-of-file condition (null
pointer return value like an error, but no change to errno). this
issue reportedly affects GNU make in certain corner cases.
rather than backing up and restoring errno, I've just changed the
syscall to be made in a way that doesn't affect errno (via an inline
syscall rather than a call to the __getdents function). the latter
still exists for the purpose of providing the public getdents alias
which sets errno.

the build system has no automatic way to know this code applies to
both big (default) and little endian variants, so explicit .sub files
are needed.
|
|
Userspace emulated floating-point (gcc -msoft-float) is not compatible
with the default mips abi (assumes an FPU or in kernel emulation of it).
Soft vs hard float abi should not be mixed, __mips_soft_float is checked
in musl's configure script and there is no runtime check. The -sf subarch
does not save/restore floating-point registers in setjmp/longjmp and only
provides dummy fenv implementation.
|
|
the reordering of headers caused some risc archs to not see
the __syscall declaration anymore.
this caused build errors on mips with any compiler,
and on arm and microblaze with clang.
we now declare it locally just like the powerpc port does.
|
|
previously it was wrongly using the x86_64 one, precluding having both
x32 and x86_64 libs present on the same system.
|
|
|
|
it's legal to call the __syscall functions with more arguments than
necessary, and the __syscall_cp cancel dummy impl. does just that.
thus we must insert the switch for all possible syscalls numbers
into all of the syscallN inline functions.

- the nanosleep fixup "fixed" the second timespec* argument erroneusly.
- the futex fixup was missing the check for FUTEX_WAIT.
- general cleanup using a macro.

x32 is the internal arch name, but glibc uses x86_64-x32.
there doesn't exist a specific triple for x32 in gcc and binutils.
you're supposed to build your compiler for x86_64 and configure
it with multilib support for "mx32".
however it turns out that using a triple of x86_64-x32 makes
gcc and binutils pick up the right arch (they detect it as x86_64)
and allows us to have a unique triple for cross-compiler toolchains.
|
|
|

|
most of the members should be time_t anyway, and time_t has the
correct semantics for "syscall_long", so it works on all archs, even x32.
|
|
|
|
some 32-on-64 archs require that the actual syscall args be long long.
in that case syscall_arch.h can define syscall_arg_t to whatever it needs
and syscall.h picks it up.
all other archs just use long as usual.
|
|
this allows syscall_arch.h to define the macro __scc if special
casting is needed, as is the case for x32, where the actual syscall
arguments are 64bit, but, in case of pointers, would get sign-extended
and thus become invalid.
|
|
the other atomic FD_CLOEXEC interfaces (dup3, pipe2, socket) already
had such emulation in place. the justification for doing the emulation
here is the same as for the other functions: it allows applications to
simply use accept4 rather than having to have their own fallback code
for ENOSYS/EINVAL (which one you get is arch-specific!) and there is
no reasonable way an application could benefit from knowing the
operation is emulated/non-atomic since there is no workaround at the
application level for non-atomicity (that is the whole reason these
interfaces were added).
|
|
this was a missing part of the LFS64 API; it's "needed" for use with
fcntl and the corresponding lock commands.
|
|
based on patch by orc.
|
|
this was unlikely to lead to any crash or dangerous behavior, but
caused adjacent string constants to be treated as part of the
protocols table, possibly returning nonsensical results for unknown
protocol names/numbers or when getprotoent was called in a loop to
enumerate all protocols.
|
|
this is a requirement in the specification that was overlooked.

another commit to silence gcc warnings (-Wparentheses) for standard headers.
changed macros: LOG_UPTO, IN6_ARE_ADDR_EQUAL
|
|
gcc -Wsign-compare warns about expanded macros that were defined in
standard headers (before gcc 4.8) which can make builds fail that
use -Werror. changed macros: WIFSIGNALED, __CPU_op_S

The architecture-specific assembly versions of clone did not set errno on
failure, which is inconsistent with glibc. __clone still returns the error
via its return value, and clone is now a wrapper that sets errno as needed.
The public clone has also been moved to src/linux, as it's not directly
related to the pthreads API.
__clone is called by pthread_create, which does not report errors via
errno. Though not strictly necessary, it's nice to avoid clobbering errno
here.

the default fenv was not set up properly, in particular the
tag word that indicates the contents of the x87 registers was
set to 0 (used) instead of 0xffff (empty)
this could cause random crashes after setting the default fenv
because it corrupted the fpu stack and then any float computation
gives NaN result breaking the program logic (usually after a
float to integer conversion).
|
|
this saves a syscall in the case where the underlying open already
took place with O_APPEND, which is common because fopen with append
modes sets O_APPEND at the time of open before passing the file
descriptor to __fdopen.
|
|
when there is unflushed output, ftello (and ftell) compute the logical
stream position as the underlying file descriptor's offset plus an
adjustment for the amount of buffered data. however, this can give the
wrong result for append-mode streams where the unflushed writes should
adjust the logical position to be at the end of the file, as if a seek
to end-of-file takes place before the write.
the solution turns out to be a simple trick: when ftello (indirectly)
calls lseek to determine the current file offset, use SEEK_END instead
of SEEK_CUR if the stream is append-mode and there's unwritten
buffered data.
the ISO C rules regarding switching between reading and writing for a
stream opened in an update mode, along with the POSIX rules regarding
switching "active handles", conveniently leave undefined the
hypothetical usage cases where this fix might lead to observably
incorrect offsets.

the affected part of the header is responsible for providing both GNU
and BSD versions of the udphdr structure. previously, the
namespace-polluting GNU names were always used for the actual struct
members, and the BSD names, which are named in a manner resembling a
sane namespace, were always macros defined to expand to the GNU names.
now, unless _GNU_SOURCE is defined, the BSD names are used as the
actual structure members, and the macros and GNU names only come into
play when the application requests them.
|
|
policy is to avoid using these types except where they are needed for
namespace conformance. C99-style stdint.h types should be used
instead.
|
|
there are two versions of this structure: the BSD version and the GNU
version. previously only the GNU version was supported. the only way
to support both simultaneously is with an anonymous union, which was a
nonstandard extension prior to C11, so some effort is made to avoid
breakage with compilers which do not support anonymous unions.
this commit is based on a patch by Timo Teräs, but with some changes.
in particular, the GNU version of the structure is not exposed unless
_GNU_SOURCE is defined; this both avoids namespace pollution and
dependency on anonymous unions in the default feature profile.
|
|
these are poorly designed (illogical argument order) and even poorly
implemented (brace issues) on glibc, but unfortunately some software
is using them. we could consider removing them again in the future at
some point if they're documented as deprecated, but for now the
simplest thing to do is just to provide them under _GNU_SOURCE.
