2011-06-07mq names without leading / have impl-def behavior; allowing them is easierRich Felker-9/+2
2011-06-07define MQ_PRIO_MAXRich Felker-1/+2
2011-06-07use __WCHAR_TYPE__ on i386 if it is definedRich Felker-0/+4
unfortunately traditional i386 practice was to use "long" rather than "int" for wchar_t, despite the latter being much more natural and logical. we followed this practice, but it seems some compilers (clang and maybe certain gcc builds or others too..?) have switched to using int, resulting in spurious pointer type mismatches when L"..." wide strings are used. the best solution I could find is to use the compiler's definition of wchar_t if it exists, and otherwise fallback to the traditional definition. there's no point in duplicating this approach on 64-bit archs, as their only 32-bit type is int.
2011-06-07mq send/recv functions are cancellation pointsRich Felker-2/+2
2011-06-07implement mq_notifyRich Felker-2/+65
2011-06-07add support for POSIX message queues, except mq_notifyRich Felker-0/+133
2011-06-06use __attribute__((const)) for errno and pthread_self if __GNUC__ is definedRich Felker-0/+6
this is not too ugly and should result in significant code size and performance improvements for many programs.
2011-06-06use volatile pointers for intentional-crash code.Rich Felker-3/+3
2011-06-06fix handling of d_name in struct direntRich Felker-8/+6
basically there are 3 choices for how to implement this variable-size string member: 1. C99 flexible array member: breaks using dirent.h with pre-C99 compiler. 2. old way: length-1 string: generates array bounds warnings in caller. 3. new way: length-NAME_MAX string. no problems, simplifies all code. of course the usable part in the pointer returned by readdir might be shorter than NAME_MAX+1 bytes, but that is allowed by the standard and doesn't hurt anything.
2011-06-05safety fix for glob's vla usage: disallow patterns longer than PATH_MAXRich Felker-0/+2
this actually inadvertently disallows some valid patterns with redundant / or * characters, but it's better than allowing unbounded vla allocation. eventually i'll write code to move the pattern to the stack and eliminate redundancy to ensure that it fits in PATH_MAX at the beginning of glob. this would also allow it to be modified in place for passing to fnmatch rather than copied at each level of recursion.
2011-06-05eliminate (harmless in this case) vla usage in fnmatch.cRich Felker-1/+1
2011-05-30missing prototypes for mbsnrtowcs and wcsnrtombsRich Felker-0/+6
2011-05-30implement pthread_[sg]etconcurrency.Rich Felker-0/+18
there is a resource limit of 0 bits to store the concurrency level requested. thus any positive level exceeds a resource limit, resulting in EAGAIN. :-)

2011-05-28posix_spawn: honor POSIX_SPAWN_SETSIGDEF flagRich Felker-1/+3
2011-05-28initial implementation of posix_spawnRich Felker-0/+218
file actions are not yet implemented, but everything else should be mostly complete and roughly correct.

2011-05-11fix the last known rounding bug in floating point printingRich Felker-3/+4
the observed symptom was that the code was incorrectly rounding up 1.0625 to 1.063 despite the rounding mode being round-to-nearest with ties broken by rounding to even last place. however, the code was just not right in many respects, and i'm surprised it worked as well as it did. this time i tested the values that end up in the variables round, small, and the expression round+small, and all look good.

2011-05-07optimize out useless default-attribute object in pthread_createRich Felker-7/+7
2011-05-07optimize compound-literal sigset_t's not to contain useless hurd bitsRich Felker-5/+7
2011-05-07overhaul implementation-internal signal protectionsRich Felker-50/+32
the new approach relies on the fact that the only ways to create sigset_t objects without invoking UB are to use the sig*set() functions, or from the masks returned by sigprocmask, sigaction, etc. or in the ucontext_t argument to a signal handler. thus, as long as sigfillset and sigaddset avoid adding the "protected" signals, there is no way the application will ever obtain a sigset_t including these bits, and thus no need to add the overhead of checking/clearing them when sigprocmask or sigaction is called. note that the old code actually *failed* to remove the bits from sa_mask when sigaction was called. the new implementations are also significantly smaller, simpler, and faster due to ignoring the useless "GNU HURD signals" 65-1024, which are not used and, if there's any sanity in the world, never will be used.
2011-05-06reduce some ridiculously large spin countsRich Felker-2/+2
these should be tweaked according to testing. offhand i know 1000 is too low and 5000 is likely to be sufficiently high. consider trying to add futexes to file locking, too...
2011-05-06remove debug code that was missed in barrier commitRich Felker-1/+0
2011-05-06completely new barrier implementation, addressing major correctness issuesRich Felker-20/+48
the previous implementation had at least 2 problems: 1. the case where additional threads reached the barrier before the first wave was finished leaving the barrier was untested and seemed not to be working. 2. threads leaving the barrier continued to access memory within the barrier object after other threads had successfully returned from pthread_barrier_wait. this could lead to memory corruption or crashes if the barrier object had automatic storage in one of the waiting threads and went out of scope before all threads finished returning, or if one thread unmapped the memory in which the barrier object lived. the new implementation avoids both problems by making the barrier state essentially local to the first thread which enters the barrier wait, and forces that thread to be the last to return.
2011-05-05add SA_NOMASK alias for SA_NODEFER with _GNU_SOURCERich Felker-0/+1
2011-05-02fix fclose return status logic, againRich Felker-1/+2
the previous fix was incorrect, as it would prevent f->close(f) from being called if fflush(f) failed. i believe this was the original motivation for using | rather than ||. so now let's just use a second statement to constrain the order of function calls, and to back to using |.
2011-05-01fix undefined call order in fclose, possible lost output depending on compilerRich Felker-1/+1
pcc turned up this bug by calling f->close(f) before fflush(f), resulting in lost output and error on flush.
2011-05-01workaround for preprocessor bug in pccRich Felker-7/+7
with this patch, musl compiles and mostly works with pcc 1.0.0. a few tests are still failing and i'm uncertain whether they are due to portability problems in musl, or bugs in pcc, but i suspect the latter.
2011-05-01minor optimization in puts: use inline putc_unlocked macro for newlineRich Felker-1/+1
2011-04-29avoid crashing when nel==0 is passed to qsortRich Felker-2/+6
2011-04-27use compiler builtins for variadic macros when availableRich Felker-1/+12
this slightly cuts down on the degree musl "fights with" gcc, but more importantly, it fixes a critical bug when gcc inlines a variadic function and optimizes out the variadic arguments due to noticing that they were "not used" (by __builtin_va_arg). we leave the old code in place if __GNUC__ >= 3 is false; it seems like it might be necessary at least for tinycc support and perhaps if anyone ever gets around to fixing gcc 2.95.3 enough to make it work..
2011-04-27correct variadic prototypes for execl* familyRich Felker-18/+21
the old versions worked, but conflicted with programs which declared their own prototypes and generated warnings with some versions of gcc.
2011-04-27replace heap sort with smoothsort implementation by Valentin OchsRich Felker-32/+197
Smoothsort is an adaptive variant of heapsort. This version was written by Valentin Ochs (apo) specifically for inclusion in musl. I worked with him to get it working in O(1) memory usage even with giant array element widths, and to optimize it heavily for size and speed. It's still roughly 4 times as large as the old heap sort implementation, but roughly 20 times faster given an almost-sorted array of 1M elements (20 being the base-2 log of 1M), i.e. it really does reduce O(n log n) to O(n) in the mostly-sorted case. It's still somewhat slower than glibc's Introsort for random input, but now considerably faster than glibc when the input is already sorted, or mostly sorted.
2011-04-27add word-sized ctz function to atomic.hRich Felker-4/+16
strictly speaking this and a few other ops should be factored into asm.h or the file should just be renamed to asm.h, but whatever. clean it up someday.

2011-04-25ipv6 parsing code (formerly dummied-out)Rich Felker-8/+62
2011-04-25fix 2 eof-related bugs in scanfRich Felker-3/+4
1. failed match of literal chars from the format string would always return matching failure rather than input failure at eof, leading to infinite loops in some programs. 2. unread of eof would wrongly adjust the character counts reported by %n, yielding an off-by-one error.
