      change uid_t, gid_t, and id_t to unsigned types · 648c3b4e
      Rich Felker 提交于
      this change is both to fix one of the remaining type (and thus C++
      ABI) mismatches with glibc/LSB and to allow use of the full range of
      uid and gid values, if so desired.
      
      passwd/group access functions were not prepared to deal with unsigned
      values, so they too have been fixed with this commit.

      an empty program is not valid and would be reasonable grounds for the

      make the dynamic linker find its path file relative to its own location · f389c498
      Rich Felker 提交于
      prior to this change, using a non-default syslibdir was impractical on
      systems where the ordinary library paths contain musl-incompatible
      library files. the file containing search paths was always taken from
      /etc, which would either correspond to a system-wide musl
      installation, or fail to exist at all, resulting in searching of the
      default library path.
      
      the new search strategy is safe even for suid programs because the
      pathname used comes from the PT_INTERP header of the program being
      run, rather than any external input.
      
      as part of this change, I have also begun differentiating the names of
      arch variants that differ by endianness or floating point calling
      convention. the corresponding changes in the build system and and gcc
      wrapper script (to use an alternate dynamic linker name) for these
      configurations have not yet been made.

      fix FILENAME_MAX to match PATH_MAX · b823ef2d

      POSIX is not clear on whether it includes the termination, but ISO C
      requires that it does. the whole concept of this macro is rather
      useless, but it's better to be correct anyway.

      make posix_spawn (and functions that use it) use CLONE_VFORK flag · b06dc666
      Rich Felker 提交于
      this is both a minor scheduling optimization and a workaround for a
      difficult-to-fix bug in qemu app-level emulation.
      
      from the scheduling standpoint, it makes no sense to schedule the
      parent thread again until the child has exec'd or exited, since the
      parent will immediately block again waiting for it.
      
      on the qemu side, as regular application code running on an underlying
      libc, qemu cannot make arbitrary clone syscalls itself without
      confusing the underlying implementation. instead, it breaks them down
      into either fork-like or pthread_create-like cases. it was treating
      the code in posix_spawn as pthread_create-like, due to CLONE_VM, which
      caused horribly wrong behavior: CLONE_FILES broke the synchronization
      mechanism, CLONE_SIGHAND broke the parent's signals, and CLONE_THREAD
      caused the child's exec to end the parent -- if it hadn't already
      crashed. however, qemu special-cases CLONE_VFORK and emulates that
      with fork, even when CLONE_VM is also specified. this also gives
      incorrect semantics for code that really needs the memory sharing, but
      posix_spawn does not make use of the vm sharing except to avoid
      momentary double commit charge.
      
      programs using posix_spawn (including via popen) should now work
      correctly under qemu app-level emulation.

      fix omission of dtv setup in static linked programs on TLS variant I archs · f1292e3d
      Rich Felker 提交于
      apparently this was never noticed before because the linker normally
      optimizes dynamic TLS models to non-dynamic ones when static linking,
      thus eliminating the calls to __tls_get_addr which crash when the dtv
      is missing. however, some libsupc++ code on ARM was calling
      __tls_get_addr when static linked and crashing. the reason is unclear
      to me, but with this issue fixed it should work now anyway.

      move core memalign code from aligned_alloc to __memalign · 6d861ac8
      Rich Felker 提交于
      there are two motivations for this change. one is to avoid
      gratuitously depending on a C11 symbol for implementing a POSIX
      function. the other pertains to the documented semantics. C11 does not
      define any behavior for aligned_alloc when the length argument is not
      a multiple of the alignment argument. posix_memalign on the other hand
      places no requirements on the length argument. using __memalign as the
      implementation of both, rather than trying to implement one in terms
      of the other when their documented contracts differ, eliminates this
      confusion.

      move alignment check from aligned_alloc to posix_memalign · 65141618
      Rich Felker 提交于
      C11 has no requirement that the alignment be a multiple of
      sizeof(void*), and in fact seems to require any "valid alignment
      supported by the implementation" to work. since the alignment of char
      is 1 and thus a valid alignment, an alignment argument of 1 should be
      accepted.

      fix Makefile so "make install" works before include/bits symlink exists · d66ab4f1
      Rich Felker 提交于
      previously, determination of the list of header files for installation
      depended on the include/bits symlink (to the arch-specific files)
      already having been created. in other words, running "make install"
      immediately after configure without first running "make" caused the
      bits headers not to be installed.
      
      the solution I have applied is to pull the list of headers directly
      from arch/$(ARCH)/bits rather than include/bits, and likewise to
      install directly from arch/$(ARCH)/bits rather than via the symlink.
      
      at this point, the only purpose served by keeping the symlink around
      is that it enables use of the in-tree headers and libs directly via -I
      and -L, which can be useful when testing against a new version of the
      library before installing it. on the other hand, removing the bits
      symlink would be beneficial if we ever want to support building
      multiple archs in the same source tree.

      fix missing synchronization in calls from dynamic linker to global ctors · 509b50ed
      Rich Felker 提交于
      this change is needed to correctly handle the case where a constructor
      creates a new thread which calls dlopen. previously, the lock was not
      held in this case. the reason for the complex logic to avoid locking
      whenever possible is that, since the mutex is recursive, it will need
      to inspect the thread pointer to get the current thread's tid, and
      this requires initializing the thread pointer. we do not want
      non-multi-threaded programs to attempt to access the thread pointer
      unnecessarily; doing so could make them crash on ancient kernels that
      don't support threads but which may otherwise be capable of running
      the program.

      prevent shmget from allocating objects that overflow ptrdiff_t · 17aef0b4
      Rich Felker 提交于
      rather than returning an error, we have to increase the size argument
      so high that the kernel will have no choice but to fail. this is
      because POSIX only permits the EINVAL error for size errors when a new
      shared memory segment would be created; if it already exists, the size
      argument must be ignored. unfortunately Linux is non-conforming in
      this regard, but I want to keep the code correct in userspace anyway
      so that if/when Linux is fixed, the behavior applications see will be
      conforming.

      work around wrong kernel type for sem_nsems member of struct semid_ds · 062f40ef
      Rich Felker 提交于
      rejecting invalid values for n is fine even in the case where a new
      sem will not be created, since the kernel does its range checks on n
      even in this case as well.
      
      by default, the kernel will bound the limit well below USHRT_MAX
      anyway, but it's presumably possible that an administrator could
      override this limit and break things.

      this type is not really intended to be used; it's just there to allow

      on the type. in any case, it needs to be there, so now it is.
