      use an accessor function for __libc data pointer when compiled as PIC · d89c9e8a
      Rich Felker 提交于
      prior to this change, a large portion of libc was unusable prior to
      relocation by the dynamic linker, due to dependence on the global data
      in the __libc structure and the need to obtain its address through the
      GOT. with this patch, the accessor function __libc_loc is now able to
      obtain the address of __libc via PC-relative addressing without using
      the GOT. this means the majority of libc functionality is now
      accessible right away.
      
      naturally, the above statements all depend on having an architecture
      where PC-relative addressing and jumps/calls are feasible, and a
      compiler that generates the appropriate code.

      add pthread_atfork interface · e9417fff
      Rich Felker 提交于
      note that this presently does not handle consistency of the libc's own
      global state during forking. as per POSIX 2008, if the parent process
      was threaded, the child process may only call async-signal-safe
      functions until one of the exec-family functions is called, so the
      current behavior is believed to be conformant even if non-ideal. it
      may be improved at some later time.

      reorganize pthread data structures and move the definitions to alltypes.h · e8827563
      Rich Felker 提交于
      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.

      cleaning up syscalls in preparation for x86_64 port · 2cdfb7ca
      Rich Felker 提交于
      - hide all the legacy xxxxxx32 name cruft in syscall.h so the actual
      source files can be clean and uniform across all archs.
      
      - cleanup llseek/lseek and mmap2/mmap handling for 32/64 bit systems
      
      - alternate implementation for nice if the target lacks nice syscall
