putting the (simple) definition in alltypes.h seems like the best
solution here. making sys/ioctl.h implicitly include termios.h is
probably excess namespace pollution.
|
|
these have been adopted for future issue of POSIX as the outcome of
Austin Group issue 1151, and are simply functions performing the roles
of the historical ioctls. since struct winsize is being standardized
along with them, its definition is moved to the appropriate header.
there is some chance this will break source files that expect struct
winsize to be defined by sys/ioctl.h without including termios.h. if
this happens, further changes will be needed to have sys/ioctl.h
expose it too.
|
|
this is a prerequisite for addition of other interfaces that use
kernel tids, including futex and SIGEV_THREAD_ID.
there is some ambiguity as to whether the semantic return type should
be int or pid_t. either way, futex API imposes a contract that the
values fit in int (excluding some upper reserved bits). glibc used
pid_t, so in the interest of not having gratuitous mismatch (the
underlying types are the same anyway), pid_t is used here as well.
while conceptually this is a syscall, the copy stored in the thread
structure is always valid in all contexts where it's valid to call
libc functions, so it's used to avoid the syscall.
|
|
these were leftover from early beginnings when arpa/inet.h was not
including netinet/in.h.
|
|
this is added for POSIX-future as the outcome of Austin Group issue
599. since it's in the reserved namespace for pthread.h, there are no
namespace considerations for adding it early.
|
|
_POSIX_VDISABLE is only visible if unistd.h has already been included,
so conditional use of it here makes no sense. the value is always 0
anyway; it does not vary.
|
|
|
|
this is not necessary for linux but is a simple, inexpensive change to
make that facilitates ports to systems where NAME_MAX needs to be
longer.
|
|
This macro exists since Linux 2.6.25 and is defined in glibc since 2011.
|
|
This enables alternative compilers, which may not define __GNUC__,
to implement alloca, which is still fairly widely used.
This is similar to how stdarg.h already works in musl; compilers must
implement __builtin_va_arg, there is no fallback definition.

this change was discussed on the mailing list thread for the linux
uapi v5.3 patches, and submitted as a v2 patch, but overlooked when I
applied the patches much later.
revert commit f291c09ec90e2514c954020e9b9bdb30e2adfc7f and apply the
v2 as submitted; the net change is just padding.
notes by Szabolcs Nagy follow:
compared to the linux uapi (and glibc) a padding is used instead of
aligned attribute for keeping the layout the same across targets, this
means the alignment of the struct may be different on some targets
(e.g. m68k where uint64_t is 2 byte aligned) but that should not affect
syscalls and this way the abi does not depend on nonstandard extensions.

This ensures that the musl definition of 'struct iphdr' does not conflict
with the Linux kernel UAPI definition of it.
Some software, i.e. net-tools, will not compile against 5.4 kernel headers
without this patch and the corresponding Linux kernel patch.

since time64 switchover has changed the size and layout of the struct
anyway, take the opportunity to fix it up so that it can be shared
between 32- and 64-bit ABIs on the same system as long as byte order
matches.
the ut_type member is explicitly padded to make up for m68k having
only 2-byte alignment; explicit padding has no effect on other archs.
ut_session is changed from long to int, with endian-matched padding.
this affects 64-bit archs as well, but brings the type into alignment
with glibc's x86_64 struct, so it should not break software, and does
not break on-disk format. the semantic type is int (pid-like) anyway.
the padding produces correct alignment for the ut_tv member on 32-bit
archs that don't naturally align it, so that ABI matches 64-bit.
this type is presently not used anywhere in the ABI between libc and
libc consumers; it's only used between pairs of consumers if a
third-party utmp library using the system utmpx.h is in use.
|
|
the elf_prstatus structure is used in core dumps, and the timeval
structures in it are longs matching the elf class, *not* the kernel
"old timeval" for the arch. this means using timeval here for x32 was
always wrong, despite kernel uapi headers and glibc also exposing it
this way, and of course it's wrong for any arch with 64-bit time_t.
rather than just changing the type on affected archs, use a tagless
struct containing long tv_sec and tv_usec members in place of the
timevals. this intentionally breaks use of them as timevals (e.g.
assignment, passing address, etc.) on 64-bit archs as well so that any
usage unsafe for 32-bit archs is caught even in software that only
gets tested on 64-bit archs. from what I could gather, there is not
any software using these members anyway. the only reason they need to
be fixed to begin with is that the only members which are commonly
used, the saved registers, follow the time members and have the wrong
offset if the time members are sized incorrectly.

commit b60fdf133c033d4ad6b04a8237f253563fae5928 broke the
SIOCGSTAMP[NS] ioctl fallbacks introduced in commit
2e554617e5a6a41bf3f6c6306c753cd53abf728c, as well as use of these
ioctls, by creating a situation where bits/ioctl.h could be included
without __LONG_MAX being visible.

linux/input.h and perhaps others use this macro to determine whether
the userspace time_t is 64-bit when potentially defining types in
terms of time_t and derived structures. the name __USE_TIME_BITS64 is
unfortunate; it really should have been in the __UAPI namespace. but
this is what was chosen back in v4.16 when first preparing input.h for
time64 userspace, presumably based on expectations about what the
glibc-internal features.h macro for time64 would be, and changing it
now would just put a new minimum version requirement on kernel
headers.
the __USE_TIME_BITS64 macro is not intended as a public interface. it
is purely an internal contract between libc and Linux uapi headers.
|
|
now that all 32-bit archs have 64-bit time_t (and suseconds_t), the
arch-provided _Int64 macro (long or long long, as appropriate) can be
used to define them, and arch-specific definitions are no longer
needed.
|
|
now that all 32-bit archs have 64-bit time types, the values for the
time-related socket option macros can be treated as universal for
32-bit archs. the sys/socket.h mechanism for this predates
arch/generic and is instead in the top-level header.
x32, which does not use the new time64 values of the macros, already
has its own overrides, so this commit does not affect it.
|
|
these structures can now be defined generically in terms of endianness
and long size. previously, the 32-bit archs all shared a common
definition from the generic bits header, and each 64-bit arch had to
repeat the 64-bit version, with endian conditionals if the arch had
variants of each endianness.
I would prefer getting rid of the preprocessor conditionals for
padding and instead using unnamed bitfield members, like commit
9b2921bea1d5017832e1b45d1fd64220047a9802 did for struct timespec.
however, at present sendmsg, recvmsg, and recvmmsg need access to the
padding members by name to zero them. this could perhaps be cleaned up
in the future.
|
|
SO_RCVTIMEO and SO_SNDTIMEO already were, but only in aggregate with
SO_DEBUG and all of the other low/traditional options that varied per
arch. SO_TIMESTAMP* are newly overridable. the two groups have to be
done separately since mips64 and powerpc64 will override the former
but not the latter.
at some point this should be cleaned up to use bits headers more
idiomatically.
|
|
if symbols are being redirected to provide the new time64 ABI, dlsym
must perform matching redirections; otherwise, it would poke a hole in
the magic and return pointers to functions that are not safe to call
from a caller using time64 types.
rather than duplicating a table of redirections, use the time64
symbols present in libc's symbol table to derive the decision for
whether a particular symbol needs to be redirected.
|
|
the time_t members in struct sched_param are just reserved space to
preserve size and alignment. when time_t changes to 64-bit on 32-bit
archs, this structure should not change.
make definition conditional on _REDIR_TIME64 to match the size of the
old time_t, which can be assumed to be long if _REDIR_TIME64 is
defined.
|
|
a _REDIR_TIME64 macro is introduced, which the arch's alltypes.h is
expected to define, to control redirection of symbol names for
interfaces that involve time_t and derived types. this ensures that
object files will only be linked to libc interfaces matching the ABI
whose headers they were compiled against.
along with time32 compat shims, which will be introduced separately,
the redirection also makes it possible for a single libc (static or
shared) to be used with object files produced with either the old
(32-bit time_t) headers or the new ones after 64-bit time_t switchover
takes place. mixing of such object files (or shared libraries) in the
same program will also be possible, but must be done with care; ABI
between libc and a consumer of the libc interfaces is guaranteed to
match by the the symbol name redirection, but pairwise ABI between
consumers of libc that define interfaces between each other in terms
of time_t is not guaranteed to match.
this change adds a dependency on an additional "GNU C" feature to the
public headers for existing 32-bit archs, which is generally
undesirable; however, the feature is one which glibc has depended on
for a long time, and thus which any viable alternative compiler is
going to need to provide. 64-bit archs are not affected, nor will
future 32-bit archs be, regardless of whether they are "new" on the
kernel side (e.g. riscv32) or just newly-added (e.g. a new sparc or
xtensa port). the same applies to newly-added ABIs for existing
machine-level archs.
|
|
for time64 support on 32-bit archs, the kernel interfaces use a
timespec layout padded to match the representation of a pair of 64-bit
values, which requires endian-specific padding.
use of an ordinary, non-bitfield, named member for the padding is
undesirable because, on big endian archs, it would alter the
interpretation of traditional (non-designated) initializers of the
form {s,ns}, initializing the padding instead of the tv_nsec member.
unnamed bitfield members solve this problem by not taking part in
initialization, and were the expected solution when the kernel
interfaces were designed. however, they also have further advantages
which we take advantage of here:
positioning of the padding could be controlled by having a
preprocessor conditional with separate definitions of struct timespec
for little and big endian, but whether padding should appear at all is
a function of whether time_t is larger than long. this condition is
not something the preprocessor can determine unless we were to define
a new macro specifically for that purpose.
by using unnamed bitfield members instead of ordinary named members,
we can arrange for the size of the padding to collapse to zero when it
should not be present, just by using sizeof(time_t) and sizeof(long)
in the bitfield width expression, which can be any integer constant
expression.
|
|
policy has long been that these definitions are purely a function of
whether long/pointer is 32- or 64-bit, and that they are not allowed
to vary per-arch. move the definition to the shared alltypes.h.in
fragment, using integer constant expressions in terms of sizeof to
vary the array dimensions appropriately. I'm not sure whether this is
more or less ugly than using preprocessor conditionals and two sets of
definitions here, but either way is a lot less ugly than repeating the
same thing for every arch.
|
|
LLONG_MAX is uniform for all archs we support and plenty of header and
code level logic assumes it is, so it does not make sense for limits.h
bits mechanism to pretend it's variable.
LONG_BIT can be defined in terms of LONG_MAX; there's no reason to put
it in bits.
by moving LONG_MAX definition to __LONG_MAX in alltypes.h and moving
LLONG_MAX out of bits, there are now no plain-C limits that are
defined in the bits header, so the bits header only needs to be
included in the POSIX or extended profiles. this allows the feature
test macro logic to be removed from the bits header, facilitating a
long-term goal of getting such logic out of bits.
having __LONG_MAX in alltypes.h will allow further generalization of
headers.
archs without a constant PAGESIZE no longer need bits/limits.h at all.
|
|
the resolution of Austin Group issue #162 adds endian.h as a standard
header for future versions of the standard, making it no longer
acceptable for some of the functionality to be hidden behind
_BSD_SOURCE or _GNU_SOURCE. the definitions of the [lb]etoh{16,32,64}
function-like macros are kept conditional since they are alternate
names which the standard did not adopt.
|
|
building on commit 97d35a552ec5b6ddf7923dd2f9a8eb973526acea,
__BYTE_ORDER is now available wherever alltypes.h is included.
endian.h should not be used since, in the future, it will expose
identifiers that are not in the reserved namespace for the headers
which were previously using it.
|
|
this change is motivated by the intersection of several factors.
presently, despite being a nonstandard header, endian.h is exposing
the unprefixed byte order macros and functions only if _BSD_SOURCE or
_GNU_SOURCE is defined. this is to accommodate use of endian.h from
other headers, including bits headers, which need to define structure
layout in terms of endianness. with time64 switch-over, even more
headers will need to do this.
at the same time, the resolution of Austin Group issue 162 makes
endian.h a standard header for POSIX-future, requiring that it expose
the unprefixed macros and the functions even in standards-conforming
profiles. changes to meet this new requirement would break existing
internal usage of endian.h by causing it to violate namespace where
it's used.
instead, have the arch's alltypes.h define __BYTE_ORDER, either as a
fixed constant or depending on the right arch-specific predefined
macros for determining endianness. explicit literals 1234 and 4321 are
used instead of __LITTLE_ENDIAN and __BIG_ENDIAN so that there's no
danger of getting the wrong result if a macro is undefined and
implicitly evaluates to 0 at the preprocessor level.
the powerpc (32-bit) bits/endian.h being removed had logic for varying
endianness, but our powerpc arch has never supported that and has
always been big-endian-only. this logic is not carried over to the new
__BYTE_ORDER definition in alltypes.h.
|
|
now that commit f7f1079796abc6f97c69521d2334e9c7d3945dd8 removed the
legacy i386 conditional definition, va_list is in no way
arch-specific, and has no reason to be in the future. move it to the
shared part of alltypes.h.in
