2011-04-10add missing float.h macrosRich Felker1-0/+3
actually FLT_ROUNDS needs to expand to a static inline function that obtains the current rounding mode and returns it, but that will be added later with fenv.h stuff.
2011-04-05add some missing ipv6 stuffRich Felker1-0/+12
2011-04-05uncomment IP_PKTINFORich Felker1-1/+1
this was a hack leftover from testing before the initial check-in to git.
2011-04-01remove obsolete and useless useconds_t typeRich Felker1-1/+0
2011-03-30avoid all malloc/free in timer creation/destructionRich Felker1-1/+1
instead of allocating a userspace structure for signal-based timers, simply use the kernel timer id. we use the fact that thread pointers will always be zero in the low bit (actually more) to encode integer timerid values as pointers. also, this change ensures that the timer_destroy syscall has completed before the library timer_destroy function returns, in case it matters.
2011-03-29some preliminaries for adding POSIX timersRich Felker1-1/+1
2011-03-28fix bug from syscall overhaul: extra __syscall_ret call for 0-arg syscallsRich Felker1-1/+1
this mainly just caused bloat, but could corrupt errno if a 0-arg syscall ever failed.
2011-03-25match glibc/lsb cancellation abi on i386Rich Felker1-0/+19
glibc made the ridiculous choice to use pass-by-register calling convention for these functions, which is impossible to duplicate directly on non-gcc compilers. instead, we use ugly asm to wrap and convert the calling convention. presumably this works with every compiler anyone could potentially want to use.
2011-03-19honor namespace for i386 syscall.h, even though it's not a standard headerRich Felker1-50/+50
2011-03-19syscall overhaul part two - unify public and internal syscall interfaceRich Felker2-2/+136
with this patch, the syscallN() functions are no longer needed; a variadic syscall() macro allows syscalls with anywhere from 0 to 6 arguments to be made with a single macro name. also, manually casting each non-integer argument with (long) is no longer necessary; the casts are hidden in the macros. some source files which depended on being able to define the old macro SYSCALL_RETURNS_ERRNO have been modified to directly use __syscall() instead of syscall(). references to SYSCALL_SIGSET_SIZE and SYSCALL_LL have also been changed. x86_64 has not been tested, and may need a follow-up commit to fix any minor bugs/oversights.
2011-03-19overhaul syscall interfaceRich Felker1-0/+810
this commit shuffles around the location of syscall definitions so that we can make a syscall() library function with both SYS_* and __NR_* style syscall names available to user applications, provides the syscall() library function, and optimizes the code that performs the actual inline syscalls in the library itself. previously on i386 when built as PIC (shared library), syscalls were incurring bus lock (lock prefix) overhead at entry and exit, due to the way the ebx register was being loaded (xchg instruction with a memory operand). now the xchg takes place between two registers. further cleanup to arch/$(ARCH)/syscall.h is planned.
2011-03-18various legacy and linux-specific stuffRich Felker1-0/+1
this commit is part of an effort to make more of busybox work out-of-the-box.
2011-03-11match dimensions so we can use all slots without invoking OOB-array-accessRich Felker1-5/+5
2011-03-11fix missing ENOTSUP error codeRich Felker1-0/+1
2011-03-10make sigaltstack work (missing macros in signal.h, error conditions)Rich Felker1-0/+2
2011-02-20resolve some header namespace non-issuesRich Felker1-1/+0
after re-reading 2.2.2 of POSIX 2008, all of these are in the correct reserved namespaces and do not need protection.
2011-02-20fill in some missing siginfo stuff in signal.hRich Felker1-5/+56
2011-02-19add missing WIFCONTINUED macro and improve WIFSIGNALEDRich Felker1-1/+2
2011-02-18support the ugly and deprecated ucontext and sigcontext header stuff...Rich Felker1-0/+34
only the structures, not the functions from ucontext.h, are supported at this point. the main goal of this commit is to make modern gcc with dwarf2 unwinding build without errors. honestly, it probably doesn't matter how we define these as long as they have members with the right names to prevent errors while compiling libgcc. the only time they will be used is for propagating exceptions across signal-handler boundaries, which invokes undefined behavior anyway. but as-is, they're probably correct and may be useful to various low-level applications dealing with virtualization, jit code generation, and so on...
2011-02-17reorganize pthread data structures and move the definitions to alltypes.hRich Felker1-0/+15
this allows sys/types.h to provide the pthread types, as required by POSIX. this design also facilitates forcing ABI-compatible sizes in the arch-specific alltypes.h, while eliminating the need for developers changing the internals of the pthread types to poke around with arch-specific headers they may not be able to test.
