2012-09-06use restrict everywhere it's required by c99 and/or posix 2008Rich Felker-1/+1
to deal with the fact that the public headers may be used with pre-c99 compilers, __restrict is used in place of restrict, and defined appropriately for any supported compiler. we also avoid the form [restrict] since older versions of gcc rejected it due to a bug in the original c99 standard, and instead use the form *restrict.
2011-07-23some preliminaries for vdso clock supportRich Felker-1/+6
these changes also make it so clock_gettime(CLOCK_REALTIME, &ts) works even on pre-2.6 kernels, emulated via the gettimeofday syscall. there is no cost for the fallback check, as it falls under the error case that already must be checked for storing the error code in errno, but which would normally be hidden inside __syscall_ret.
2011-04-06consistency: change all remaining syscalls to use SYS_ rather than __NR_ prefixRich Felker-1/+1
2011-03-19syscall overhaul part two - unify public and internal syscall interfaceRich Felker-2/+1
with this patch, the syscallN() functions are no longer needed; a variadic syscall() macro allows syscalls with anywhere from 0 to 6 arguments to be made with a single macro name. also, manually casting each non-integer argument with (long) is no longer necessary; the casts are hidden in the macros. some source files which depended on being able to define the old macro SYSCALL_RETURNS_ERRNO have been modified to directly use __syscall() instead of syscall(). references to SYSCALL_SIGSET_SIZE and SYSCALL_LL have also been changed. x86_64 has not been tested, and may need a follow-up commit to fix any minor bugs/oversights.
