      refactor getaddrinfo and add support for most remaining features · 6f409bff
      Rich Felker 提交于
      this is the first phase of the "resolver overhaul" project.
      
      conceptually, the results of getaddrinfo are a direct product of a
      list of address results and a list of service results. the new code
      makes this explicit by computing these lists separately and combining
      the results. this adds support for services that have both tcp and udp
      versions, where the caller has not specified which it wants, and
      eliminates a number of duplicate code paths which were all producing
      the final output addrinfo structures, but in subtly different ways,
      making it difficult to implement any of the features which were
      missing.
      
      in addition to the above benefits, the refactoring allows for legacy
      functions like gethostbyname to be implemented without using the
      getaddrinfo function itself. such changes to the legacy functions have
      not yet been made, however.
      
      further improvements include matching of service alias names from
      /etc/services (previously only the primary name was supported),
      returning multiple results from /etc/hosts (previously only the first
      matching line was honored), and support for the AI_V4MAPPED and AI_ALL
      flags.
      
      features which remain unimplemented are IDN translations (encoding
      non-ASCII hostnames for DNS lookup) and the AI_ADDRCONFIG flag.
      
      at this point, the DNS-based name resolving code is still based on the
      old interfaces in __dns.c, albeit somewhat simpler in its use of them.
      there may be some dead code which could already be removed, but
      changes to this layer will be a later phase of the resolver overhaul.

      fix for broken kernel side RLIM_INFINITY on mips · 8258014f
      Szabolcs Nagy 提交于
      On 32 bit mips the kernel uses -1UL/2 to mark RLIM_INFINITY (and
      this is the definition in the userspace api), but since it is in
      the middle of the valid range of limits and limits are often
      compared with relational operators, various kernel side logic is
      broken if larger than -1UL/2 limits are used. So we truncate the
      limits to -1UL/2 in get/setrlimit and prlimit.
      
      Even if the kernel side logic consistently treated -1UL/2 as greater
      than any other limit value, there wouldn't be any clean workaround
      that allowed using large limits:
      * using -1UL/2 as RLIM_INFINITY in userspace would mean different
      infinity value for get/setrlimt and prlimit (where infinity is always
      -1ULL) and userspace logic could break easily (just like the kernel
      is broken now) and more special case code would be needed for mips.
      * translating -1UL/2 kernel side value to -1ULL in userspace would
      mean that -1UL/2 limit cannot be set (eg. -1UL/2+1 had to be passed
      to the kernel instead).

      break down coarse-grained 64-bit-off_t syscall remappings · 106e65d6
      Rich Felker 提交于
      using the existence of SYS_stat64 as the condition for remapping other
      related syscalls is no longer valid, since new archs that omit the old
      syscalls will not have SYS_stat or SYS_stat64, but still potentially
      need SYS_fstat and others remapped. it would probably be possible to
      get by with just one or two extra conditionals, but just breaking them
      all down into separate conditions is robust and not significantly
      heavier for the preprocessor.

      fix sendfile syscall to use 64-bit off_t · 55f45bc7
      Rich Felker 提交于
      somehow the remapping of this syscall to the 64-bit version was
      overlooked. the issue was found, and patch provided, by Stefan
      Kristiansson. presumably the reason this bug was not caught earlier is
      that the syscall takes a pointer to off_t rather than a value, so on
      little-endian systems, everything appears to work as long as the
      offset value fits in the low 31 bits. on big-endian systems, though,
      sendfile was presumably completely non-functional.

      support linux kernel apis (new archs) with old syscalls removed · dd5f50da
      Rich Felker 提交于
      such archs are expected to omit definitions of the SYS_* macros for
      syscalls their kernels lack from arch/$ARCH/bits/syscall.h. the
      preprocessor is then able to select the an appropriate implementation
      for affected functions. two basic strategies are used on a
      case-by-case basis:
      
      where the old syscalls correspond to deprecated library-level
      functions, the deprecated functions have been converted to wrappers
      for the modern function, and the modern function has fallback code
      (omitted at the preprocessor level on new archs) to make use of the
      old syscalls if the new syscall fails with ENOSYS. this also improves
      functionality on older kernels and eliminates the incentive to program
      with deprecated library-level functions for the sake of compatibility
      with older kernels.
      
      in other situations where the old syscalls correspond to library-level
      functions which are not deprecated but merely lack some new features,
      such as the *at functions, the old syscalls are still used on archs
      which support them. this may change at some point in the future if or
      when fallback code is added to the new functions to make them usable
      (possibly with reduced functionality) on old kernels.

      calling exit more than once invokes undefined behavior. in some cases
      it's desirable to detect undefined behavior and diagnose it via a
      predictable crash, but the code here was silently covering up an

      common case (recursive calls to exit) into a permanent hang.

      support kernels with no SYS_open syscall, only SYS_openat · 594c827a
      Rich Felker 提交于
      open is handled specially because it is used from so many places, in
      so many variants (2 or 3 arguments, setting errno or not, and
      cancellable or not). trying to do it as a function would not only
      increase bloat, but would also risk subtle breakage.
      
      this is the first step towards supporting "new" archs where linux
      lacks "old" syscalls.

      overhaul siginfo_t definition in signal.h · 44d28e55
      Rich Felker 提交于
      the main motivation for this change is that, with the previous
      definition, it was arguably illegal, in standard C, to initialize both
      si_value and si_pid/si_uid with designated initializers, due to the
      rule that only one member of a union can have an initializer. whether
      or not this affected real-world application code, it affected some
      internal code, and clang was producing warnings (and possibly
      generating incorrect code).
      
      the new definition uses a more complex hierarchy of structs and unions
      to avoid the need to initialize more than one member of a single union
      in usage cases that make sense. further work would be needed to
      eliminate even the ones with no practical applications.
      
      at the same time, some fixes are made to the exposed names for
      nonstandard fields, to match what software using them expects.

      fix unhandled cases in strptime · dec66750
      Rich Felker 提交于
      %C, %U, %W, and %y handling were completely missing; %C wrongly
      fell-through to unrelated cases, and the rest returned failure. for
      now, they all parse numbers in the proper forms and range-check the
      values, but they do not store the value anywhere.
      
      it's not clear to me whether, as "derived" fields, %U and %W should
      produce any result. they certainly cannot produce a result unless the
      year and weekday are also converted, but in this case it might be
      desirable for them to do so. clarification is needed on the intended
      behavior of strptime in cases like this.
      
      %C and %y have well-defined behavior as long as they are used together
      (and %y is defined by itself but may change in the future).
      implementing them (including their correct interaction) is left as a
      later change to be made.
      
      finally, strptime now rejects unknown/invalid format characters
      instead of ignoring them.

      remove unsupported nonstandard sysconf macros and their table entries · 93be56ba
      Rich Felker 提交于
      some of these may have been from ancient (pre-SUSv2) POSIX versions;
      more likely, they were from POSIX drafts or glibc interpretations of
      what ancient versions of POSIX should have added (instead they made
      they described functionality mandatory and/or dropped it completely).
      others are purely glibc-isms, many of them ill-thought-out, like
      providing ways to lookup the min/max values of types at runtime
      (despite the impossibility of them changing at runtime and the
      impossibility of representing ULONG_MAX in a return value of type
      long).
      
      since our sysconf implementation does not support or return meaningful
      values for any of these, it's harmful to have the macros around;
      applications' build scripts may detect and attempt to use them, only
      to get -1/EINVAL as a result.
      
      if removing them does break some applications, and it's determined
      that the usage was reasonable, some of these could be added back on an
      as-needed basis, but they should return actual meaningful values, not
      junk like they were returning before.

      rework sysconf table to treat zero entries as invalid · ff78355b
      Rich Felker 提交于
      based on patch by Timo Teräs. previously, the value zero was used as a
      literal zero, meaning that all invalid sysconf "names", which should
      result in sysconf returning -1, had to be explicitly listed. (in
      addition, it was not possible for sysconf to set errno to EINVAL, as
      there was no distinction between -1 as an error and -1 as a valid
      result.)
      
      now, the value 0 is used for invalid/undefined slots in the table and
      a new switch table entry is used for returning literal zeros.
      
      in addition, an off-by-one error in checking against the table size is
      fixed.

      fix superh nofpu check on old gcc versions · 23d64182
      Bobby Bingham 提交于
      As far as gcc3 knows, sh4 is the only processor version that can have an
      FPU, so it indicates the FPU's presence by defining __SH4__.  This is not
      defined if there is no FPU, even if the processor really is an SH4.
      
      Starting with gcc4, there is support for the sh2a processor, which has an
      FPU but is not an SH4.  gcc4 therefore additionally defines __SH_FPU_ANY__
      when there is an FPU, but still doesn't define __SH4__ for an FPU-less sh4.
      
      Therefore, to support all gcc versions, we must look at both preprocessor
      symbols.
