the W* namespace is not reserved, so the nonstandard ones must be
moved under extension features. also WNOHANG and WUNTRACED were
missing.

based on strstr. passes gnulib tests and a few quick checks of my own.

based on proposed patches by Daniel Cegiełka, with minor changes:
- use a weak symbol for optreset so it doesn't clash with namespace
- also reset optpos (position in multi-option arg like -lR)
- also make getopt_long support reset

it will be in the next version of POSIX

they will be in the next version of POSIX

based on initial work by rdp, with heavy modifications. some features
including threads are untested because qemu app-level emulation seems
to be broken and I do not have a proper system image for testing.

issue reported/requested by Justin Cormack

patch by Justin Cormack, with slight modification

this could cause major bugs, and warrants a fix release right away.

I'm not 100% sure that Linux's O_PATH meets the POSIX requirements for
O_SEARCH, but it seems very close if not perfect. and old kernels
ignore it, so O_SEARCH will still work as desired as long as the
caller has read permissions to the directory.

now public syscall.h only exposes __NR_* and SYS_* constants and the
variadic syscall function. no macros or inline functions, no
__syscall_ret or other internal details, no 16-/32-bit legacy syscall
renaming, etc. this logic has all been moved to src/internal/syscall.h
with the arch-specific parts in arch/$(ARCH)/syscall_arch.h, and the
amount of arch-specific stuff has been reduced to a minimum.

changes still need to be reviewed/double-checked. minimal testing on
i386 and mips has already been performed.

not sure why this was missed in the earlier commit.

this is equivalent to posix_fallocate except that it has an extra
mode/flags argument to control its behavior, and stores the error in
errno rather than returning an error code.

features.h contains the fallback logic for pre-C11 compilers

the old behavior of exposing nothing except plain ISO C can be
obtained by defining __STRICT_ANSI__ or using a compiler option (such
as -std=c99) that predefines it. the new default featureset is POSIX
with XSI plus _BSD_SOURCE. any explicit feature test macros will
inhibit the default.

installation docs have also been updated to reflect this change.

so far, this is the only actual use of loff_t i've found. some
software, including glib, assumes loff_t must exist if splice exists;
this is a reasonable assumption since the official prototype for
splice uses loff_t, as it always works with 64-bit offsets regardless
of the selected libc off_t size. i'm using #define for now rather than
a typedef to make it easy to define in other headers if necessary
(like the LFS64 ugliness), but it may be necessary to add it to
alltypes.h eventually if other functions end up needing it.

note that POSIX does not specify these functions as _Noreturn, because
POSIX is aligned with C99, not the new C11 standard. when POSIX is
eventually updated to C11, it will almost surely give these functions
the _Noreturn attribute. for now, the actual _Noreturn keyword is not
used anyway when compiling with a c99 compiler, which is what POSIX
requires; the GCC __attribute__ is used instead if it's available,
however.

in a few places, I've added infinite for loops at the end of _Noreturn
functions to silence compiler warnings. presumably
__buildin_unreachable could achieve the same thing, but it would only
work on newer GCCs and would not be portable. the loops should have
near-zero code size cost anyway.

like the previous _Noreturn commit, this one is based on patches
contributed by philomath.
