when the size argument was zero but nmemb was nonzero, these functions
were returning nmemb, despite no data having been written.
conceptually this is not wrong, but the standard requires a return
value of zero in this case.
|
|
as specified, the int argument providing the character to write is
converted to type unsigned char. for the actual write to buffer,
conversion happened implicitly via the assignment operator; however,
the logic to check whether the argument was a newline used the
original int value. thus usage such as putchar('\n'+0x100) failed to
produce a flush.
|
|
when a write error occurred while flushing output due to a newline,
fwrite falsely reported all bytes up to and including the newline as
successfully written. in general, due to buffering such "spurious
success" returns are acceptable for stdio; however for line-buffered
mode it was subtly wrong. errors were still visible via ferror() or as
a short-write return if there was more data past the newline that
should have been written, but since the contract for line-buffered
mode is that everything up through the newline be written out
immediately, a discrepency was observable in the actual file contents.

the workaround was for a bug that botched .gpword references to local
labels, applying a nonsensical random offset of -0x4000 to them.
this reverses commit 5e396fb996a80b035d0f6ecf7fed50f68aa3ebb7 and a
removes a similar hack that was added to syscall_cp.s in the later
commit 756c8af8589265e99e454fe3adcda1d0bc5e1963. it turns out one
additional instance of the same idiom, the GETFUNCSYM macro in
arch/mips/reloc.h, was still affected by the assembler bug and does
not admit an easy workaround without making assumptions about how the
macro is used. the previous workarounds made static linking work but
left the early-stage dynamic linker broken and thus had limited
usefulness.
instead, affected users (using binutils versions older than 2.20) will
need to fix the bug on the binutils side; the trivial patch is commit
453f5985b13e35161984bf1bf657bbab11515aa4 in the binutils-gdb
repository.

the old __cp_cancel code path loaded the address of __cancel from the
GOT using the $gp register, which happened to be set to point to the
correct GOT by the calling C function, but there is no ABI requirement
that this happen. instead, go the roundabout way and compute the
address of __cancel via pc-relative and gp-relative addressing
starting with a fake return address generated by a bal instruction,
which is the same trick crt1 uses to bootstrap.

not only is pthread_kill expensive in this case; it also breaks
testing under qemu app-level emulation.

the linux man page specifies malloc_usable_size(0) to return 0 and
this is the semantics other implementations follow (jemalloc).

10k elements stack is increased to 1000k, otherwise tnfa creation fails
for reasonable sized patterns: a single literal char can add 7 elements
to this stack, so regcomp of an 1500 char long pattern (with only litral
chars) fails with REG_ESPACE. (the new limit allows about < 150k chars,
this arbitrary limit allows most command line regex usage.)
ideally there would be no upper bound: regcomp dynamically reallocates
this buffer, every reallocation checks for allocation failure and at
the end this stack is freed so there is no reason for special bound.
however that may have unwanted effect on regcomp and regexec runtime
so this is a conservative change.

These are undefined escape sequences by the standard, but often
used in sed scripts.
|
|
The goto logic was hard to follow and modify. This is
in preparation for the BRE \+ and \? support.
|
|
The standard does not define semantics for \| in BRE, but some code
depends on it meaning alternation. Empty alternative expression is
allowed to be consistent with ERE.
Based on a patch by Rob Landley.
|
|
Previously repetitions were accepted after empty expressions like
in (*|?)|{2}, but in BRE the handling of * and \{\} were not
consistent: they were accepted as literals in some cases and
repetitions in others.
It is better to treat repetitions after an empty expression as an
error (this is allowed by the standard, and glibc mostly does the
same). This is hard to do consistently with the current logic so
the new rule is:
Reject repetitions after empty expressions, except after assertions
^*, $? and empty groups ()+ and never treat them as literals.
Empty alternation (|a) is undefined by the standard, but it can be
useful so that should be accepted.
|
|
This should not change the meaning of the code, just make the intent
clearer: advancing position is tied to adding a new literal.

this file's .data section was not aligned, and just happened to get
the correct alignment with past builds. it's likely that the move of
atomic.s from arch/arm/src to src/thread/arm caused the change in
alignment, which broke the atomic and thread-pointer access fragments
on actual armv5 hardware.

search is only performed if the search or domain keyword is used in
resolv.conf and the queried name has fewer than ndots dots. there is
no default domain and names with >=ndots dots are never subjected to
search; failure in the root scope is final.
the (non-POSIX) res_search API presently does not honor search. this
may be added at some point in the future if needed.
resolv.conf is now parsed twice, at two different layers of the code
involved. this will be fixed in a subsequent patch.

rcode of 3 (NxDomain) was treated as a hard EAI_NONAME failure, but it
should instead return 0 (no results) so the caller can continue
searching. this will be important for adding search domain support.
the top-level caller will automatically return EAI_NONAME if there are
zero results at the end.
also, the case where rcode is 0 (success) but there are no results was
not handled. this happens when the domain exists but there are no A or
AAAA records for it. in this case a hard EAI_NONAME should be imposed
to inhibit further search, since the name was defined and just does
not have any address associated with it. previously a misleading hard
failure of EAI_FAIL was reported.
|
|
|
|
this change is made in preparation for adding search domains, for
which higher-level code will need to parse resolv.conf. simply parsing
it twice for each lookup would be one reasonable option, but the
existing parser code was buggy anyway, which suggested to me that it's
a bad idea to have two variants of this code in two different places.
the old code in res_msend potentially misinterpreted overly long lines
in resolv.conf, and stopped parsing after it found 3 nameservers, even
if there were relevant options left to be parsed later in the file.

these changes are motivated by a functionally similar patch by Hauke
Mehrtens to address the needs of the new mips vdso clock_gettime,
which wrongly fails with ENOSYS rather than falling back to making a
syscall for clock ids it cannot handle from userspace. in the process
of preparing to handle that case, it was noticed that the old
clock_gettime use of the vdso was actually wrong with respect to error
handling -- the tail call to the vdso function failed to set errno and
instead returned an error code.
since tail calls to vdso are no longer possible and since the plain
syscall code is now needed as a fallback path anyway, it does not make
sense to use a function pointer to call the plain syscall code path.
instead, it's inlined at the end of the main clock_gettime function.
the new code also avoids the need to test for initialization of the
vdso function pointer by statically initializing it to a self-init
function, and eliminates redundant loads from the volatile pointer
object.
finally, the use of a_cas_p on an object of type other than void *,
which is not permitted aliasing, is replaced by using an object with
the correct type and casting the value.

only use SYS_socketcall if SYSCALL_USE_SOCKETCALL is defined
internally, otherwise use direct syscalls.
this commit does not change the current behaviour, it is
preparation for adding direct syscall numbers for i386.

this eliminates the last need for the SHARED macro to control how
files in the src tree are compiled. the same code is used for both
libc.a and libc.so, with additional code for the dynamic linker (from
the new ldso tree) being added to libc.so but not libc.a. separate .o
and .lo object files still exist for the src tree, but the only
difference is that the .lo files are built as PIC.
in the future, if/when we add dlopen support for static-linked
programs, much of the code in dynlink.c may be moved back into the src
tree, but properly factored into separate source files. in that case,
the code in the ldso tree will be reduced to just the dynamic linker
entry point, self-relocation, and loading of libraries needed by the
main application.
|
|
like elsewhere, use a weak alias that the dynamic linker will override
with a more complete version capable of handling shared libraries.
|
|
the function name is still __-prefixed because it requires an asm
wrapper to pass the caller's address in order for RTLD_NEXT to work.
since this was the last function in dynlink.c still used for static
linking, now the whole file is conditional on SHARED being defined.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the ultimate goal of this change is to get all code used in libc.a out
of dynlink.c, so that the dynamic linker code can be moved to its own
tree and object files in the src tree can all be shared between libc.a
and libc.so.

all such arch-specific translation units are being moved to
appropriate arch dirs under the main src tree.
|
|
this is possible with the new build system that allows src/*/$(ARCH)/*
files which do not shadow a file in the parent directory, and yields a
more logical organization. eventually it will be possible to remove
arch/*/src from the build system.

sh needs runtime-selected atomic backends since there are a number of
supported models that use non-forwards-compatible (non-smp-compatible)
atomic mechanisms. previously, the code paths for this were highly
inefficient since they involved C function calls with multiple
branches in the callee and heavy spills in the caller. the new code
performs calls the runtime-selected asm fragment from inline asm with
extremely minimal clobbers, rather than using a function call.
for the sh4a case where the atomic mechanism is known and there is no
forward-compatibility issue, the movli.l and movco.l instructions are
provided as a_ll and a_sc, allowing the new shared atomic.h to
generate efficient inline versions of all the basic atomic operations
without needing a cas loop.
|
|
rather than having each arch provide its own atomic.h, there is a new
shared atomic.h in src/internal which pulls arch-specific definitions
from arc/$(ARCH)/atomic_arch.h. the latter can be extremely minimal,
defining only a_cas or new ll/sc type primitives which the shared
atomic.h will use to construct everything else.
this commit avoids making heavy changes to the individual archs'
atomic implementations. definitions which are identical or
near-identical to what the new shared atomic.h would produce have been
removed, but otherwise the changes made are just hooking up the
arch-specific files to the new infrastructure. major changes to take
advantage of the new system will come in subsequent commits.
|
|
otherwise C declarations are included into preprocessed (.S) asm
source files, producing errors from the assembler.

this makes it possible to inline them with LTO, and is the simplest
approach to eliminating the use of .sub files.
this also makes VFP sqrt available for use with the standard EABI
(plain arm rather than armhf subarch) when libc is built with
-mfloat-abi=softfp. the same could have been done for fabs, but when
the argument and return value are in integer registers, moving to VFP
registers and back is almost certainly more costly than a simple
integer operation.
|
|
this depends on commit 9f5eb77992b42d484d69e879d24ef86466f20f21, which
made it possible to use a .c file for arch-specific replacements, and on
commit 2f853dd6b9a95d5b13ee8f9df762125e0588df5d, the out-of-tree build
support, which made it so that src/*/$(ARCH)/* 'replacement' files get
used even if they don't match the base name of a .c file in the parent
directory.

The return value of if_nametoindex is unsigned; it should return 0
on error.

previously, getdelim was allocating twice the space needed every time
it expanded its buffer to implement exponential buffer growth (in
order to avoid quadratic run time). however, this doubling was
performed even when the final buffer length needed was already known,
which is the common case that occurs whenever the delimiter is in the
FILE's buffer.
this patch makes two changes to remedy the situation:
1. over-allocation is no longer performed if the delimiter has already
been found when realloc is needed.
2. growth factor is reduced from 2x to 1.5x to reduce the relative
excess allocation in cases where the delimiter is not initially in the
buffer, including unbuffered streams.
in theory these changes could lead to quadratic time if the same
buffer is reused to process a sequence of lines successively
increasing in length, but once this length exceeds the stdio buffer
size, the delimiter will not be found in the buffer right away and
exponential growth will still kick in.
