2013-07-22change wint_t to unsignedRich Felker-2/+2
aside from the obvious C++ ABI purpose for this change, it also brings musl into alignment with the compiler's idea of the definition of wint_t (use in -Wformat), and makes the situation less awkward on ARM, where wchar_t is unsigned. internal code using wint_t and WEOF was checked against this change, and while a few cases of storing WEOF into wchar_t were found, they all seem to operate properly with the natural conversion from unsigned to signed.
2013-07-22refactor headers, especially alltypes.h, and improve C++ ABI compatRich Felker-10/+18
the arch-specific bits/alltypes.h.sh has been replaced with a generic alltypes.h.in and minimal arch-specific bits/alltypes.h.in. this commit is intended to have no functional changes except: - exposing additional symbols that POSIX allows but does not require - changing the C++ name mangling for some types - fixing the signedness of blksize_t on powerpc (POSIX requires signed) - fixing the limit macros for sig_atomic_t on x86_64 - making dev_t an unsigned type (ABI matching goal, and more logical) in addition, some types that were wrongly defined with long on 32-bit archs were changed to int, and vice versa; this change is non-functional except for the possibility of making pointer types mismatch, and only affects programs that were using them incorrectly, and only at build-time, not runtime. the following changes were made in the interest of moving non-arch-specific types out of the alltypes system and into the headers they're associated with, and also will tend to improve application compatibility: - netdb.h now includes netinet/in.h (for socklen_t and uint32_t) - netinet/in.h now includes sys/socket.h and inttypes.h - sys/resource.h now includes sys/time.h (for struct timeval) - sys/wait.h now includes signal.h (for siginfo_t) - langinfo.h now includes nl_types.h (for nl_item) for the types in stdint.h: - types which are of no interest to other headers were moved out of the alltypes system. - fast types for 8- and 64-bit are hard-coded (at least for now); only the 16- and 32-bit ones have reason to vary by arch. and the following types have been changed for C++ ABI purposes; - mbstate_t now has a struct tag, __mbstate_t - FILE's struct tag has been changed to _IO_FILE - DIR's struct tag has been changed to __dirstream - locale_t's struct tag has been changed to __locale_struct - pthread_t is defined as unsigned long in C++ mode only - fpos_t now has a struct tag, _G_fpos64_t - fsid_t's struct tag has been changed to __fsid_t - idtype_t has been made an enum type (also required by POSIX) - nl_catd has been changed from long to void * - siginfo_t's struct tag has been removed - sigset_t's has been given a struct tag, __sigset_t - stack_t has been given a struct tag, sigaltstack - suseconds_t has been changed to long on 32-bit archs - [u]intptr_t have been changed from long to int rank on 32-bit archs - dev_t has been made unsigned summary of tests that have been performed against these changes: - nsz's libc-test (diff -u before and after) - C++ ABI check symbol dump (diff -u before, after, glibc) - grepped for __NEED, made sure types needed are still in alltypes - built gcc 3.4.6
2013-04-22remove __STDC_LIMIT_MACROS and __STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS checks in stdint.hRich Felker-8/+0
C++11, the first C++ with stdint.h, requires the previously protected macros to be exposed unconditionally by stdint.h. apparently these checks were an early attempt by the C committee to guess what the C++ committee would want, and they guessed wrong.
2013-04-04fix type issues in stdint.h so underlying types of 64-bit types match ABIRich Felker-8/+15
2013-04-04eliminate bits/wchar.hRich Felker-1/+8
the preprocessor can reliably determine the signedness of wchar_t. L'\0' is used for 0 in the expressions so that, if the underlying type of wchar_t is long rather than int, the promoted type of the expression will match the type of wchar_t.
2012-06-08fix signedness errors in stdint.h constant macrosRich Felker-2/+2
the types of these expressions must match the integer promotions. unsigned 8- and 16-bit values promote to signed int, not unsigned int.
2012-02-07revert hacks for types of stdint.h integer constant macrosRich Felker-4/+4
per 7.18.4: Each invocation of one of these macros shall expand to an integer constant expression suitable for use in #if preprocessing directives. The type of the expression shall have the same type as would an expression of the corresponding type converted according to the integer promotions. The value of the expression shall be that of the argument. the key phrase is "converted according to the integer promotions". thus there is no intent or allowance that the expression have smaller-than-int types.

...and still be valid in #if directives.
2011-09-19fix the type of wchar_t on arm; support wchar_t varying with archRich Felker-9/+4
really wchar_t should never vary, but the ARM EABI defines it as an unsigned 32-bit int instead of a signed one, and gcc follows this nonsense. thus, to give a conformant environment, we have to follow (otherwise L""[0] and L'\0' would be 0U rather than 0, but the application would be unaware due to a mismatched definition for WCHAR_MIN and WCHAR_MAX, and Bad Things could happen with respect to signed/unsigned comparisons, promotions, etc.). fortunately no rules are imposed by the C standard on the relationship between wchar_t and wint_t, and WEOF has type wint_t, so we can still make wint_t always-signed and use -1 for WEOF.
2011-04-11more types cleanupRich Felker-12/+3
the basic idea is that the only things in alltypes.h should be types that either vary from system to system (in practice, not just in theoretical la-la land - this is the implementation so we choose what constraints we want to impose on ports) or which are needed by multiple system headers.
