2012-06-20fix broken wcwidth tablesRich Felker-7/+8
unicode char data has both "W" and "F" wide types and the old table only included the "W" ones. this omitted U+3000 (ideographic space) and all the wide-ascii, etc.
2012-06-20support ld80 pseudo-denormal invalid bit patterns; treat them as nanRich Felker-2/+5
this is silly, but it makes apps that read binary junk and interpret it as ld80 "safer", and it gets gnulib to stop replacing printf...
2012-06-20fix ptsname_r to conform to the upcoming posix requirementsRich Felker-4/+13
it should return the error code rather than 0/-1 and setting errno.
2012-06-20fix fwrite return value when full write does not succeedRich Felker-1/+1
2012-06-20avoid cancellation in pcloseRich Felker-3/+4
at the point pclose might receive and act on cancellation, it has already invalidated the FILE passed to it. thus, per musl's QOI guarantees about cancellation and resource allocation/deallocation, it's not a candidate for cancellation. if it were required to be a cancellation point by posix, we would have to switch the order of deallocation, but somehow still close the pipe in order to trigger the child process to exit. i looked into doing this, but the logic gets ugly, and i'm not sure the semantics are conformant, so i'd rather just leave it alone unless there's a need to change it.
2012-06-20fix invalid memory access in pcloseRich Felker-1/+2
2012-06-20make popen cancellation-safeRich Felker-0/+7
close was the only cancellation point called from popen, but it left popen with major resource leaks if any call to close got cancelled. the easiest, cheapest fix is just to use a non-cancellable close function.
2012-06-20popen: handle issues with fd0/1 being closedRich Felker-3/+3
also check for failure of dup2 and abort the child rather than reading/writing the wrong file.
2012-06-20duplocale: don't crash when called with LC_GLOBAL_LOCALERich Felker-1/+1
posix has resolved to add this usage; for now, we just avoid writing anything to the new locale object since it's not used anyway.
2012-06-20make strerror_r behave nicer on failureRich Felker-2/+8
if the buffer is too short, at least return a partial string. this is helpful if the caller is lazy and does not check for failure. care is taken to avoid writing anything if the buffer length is zero, and to always null-terminate when the buffer length is non-zero.
2012-06-20fix another oob pointer arithmetic issue in printf floating pointRich Felker-1/+1
this one could never cause any problems unless the compiler/machine goes to extra trouble to break oob pointer arithmetic, but it's best to fix it anyway.
2012-06-20minor perror behavior fixRich Felker-1/+1
patch by nsz
2012-06-19fix localeconv values and implementationRich Felker-15/+28
dynamic-allocation of the structure is not valid; it can crash an application if malloc fails. since localeconv is not specified to have failure conditions, the object needs to have static storage duration. need to review whether all the values are right or not still..
2012-06-19fix mistake in length test in getlogin_rRich Felker-1/+1
this was actually dangerously wrong, but presumably nobody uses this broken function anymore anyway..
2012-06-19fix dummied-out fsyncRich Felker-2/+1
if we eventually have build options, it might be nice to make an option to dummy this out again, in case anybody needs a system-wide disable for disk/ssd-thrashing, etc. that some daemons do when logging...
2012-06-19fix dummied-out fdatasyncRich Felker-1/+1
2012-06-19fix pointer overflow bug in floating point printfRich Felker-3/+3
large precision values could cause out-of-bounds pointer arithmetic in computing the precision cutoff (used to avoid expensive long-precision arithmetic when the result will be discarded). per the C standard, this is undefined behavior. one would expect that it works anyway, and in fact it did in most real-world cases, but it was randomly (depending on aslr) crashing in i386 binaries running on x86_64 kernels. this is because linux puts the userspace stack near 4GB (instead of near 3GB) when the kernel is 64-bit, leading to the out-of-bounds pointer arithmetic overflowing past the end of address space and giving a very low pointer value, which then compared lower than a pointer it should have been higher than. the new code rearranges the arithmetic so that no overflow can occur. while this bug could crash printf with memory corruption, it's unlikely to have security impact in real-world applications since the ability to provide an extremely large field precision value under attacker-control is required to trigger the bug.
2012-06-19add vhangup syscall wrapperRich Felker-0/+8
request/patch by william haddonthethird, slightly modifed to add _GNU_SOURCE feature test macro so that the compiler can verify the prototype matches.
2012-06-19add new stdio extension functions to make gnulib happyRich Felker-0/+24
this is mildly ugly, but less ugly than gnulib trying to poke at the definition of the FILE structure...
2012-06-19stdio: handle file position correctly at program exitRich Felker-6/+40
for seekable files, posix imposed requirements on the offset of the underlying open file description after a stream is closed. this was correctly handled (as a side effect of the unconditional fflush call) when streams were explicitly closed by fclose, but was not handled correctly at program exit time, where fflush(0) was being used. the weak symbol hackery is to pull in __stdio_exit if either of __toread or __towrite is used, but avoid calling it twice so we don't have to keep extra state. the new __stdio_exit is a streamlined fflush variant that avoids performing any unnecessary operations and which never unlocks the files or open file list, so we can be sure no other threads write new data to a stream's buffer after it's already flushed.
2012-06-19minor cleanup in fflushRich Felker-5/+1
2012-06-19remove flush hook cruft that was never used from stdioRich Felker-5/+1
there is no need/use for a flush hook. the write function serves this purpose already. i originally created the hook for implementing mem streams based on a mistaken reading of posix, and later realized it wasn't useful but never removed it until now.
2012-06-18fix multiple iconv bugs reading utf-16/32 and wchar_tRich Felker-8/+8
2012-06-18fix iconv dest utf-16: unavailable chars must be replaced; EILSEQ is wrongRich Felker-2/+2
2012-06-18fix erroneous utf-16 encoding with surrogates in iconvRich Felker-0/+1
apparently this was never tested before.
2012-06-17change stdio_ext __freading/__fwriting semantics slightlyRich Felker-2/+2
the old behavior was to only consider a stream to be "reading" or "writing" if it had buffered, unread/unwritten data. this reportedly differs from the traditional behavior of these functions, which is essentially to return true as much as possible without creating the possibility that both __freading and __fwriting could return true. gnulib expects __fwriting to return true as soon as a file is opened write-only, and possibly expects other cases that depend on the traditional behavior. and since these functions exist mostly for gnulib (does anything else use them??), they should match the expected behavior to avoid even more ugly hacks and workarounds...
2012-06-17fdopen should set errno when it fails due to invalid mode stringRich Felker-1/+4
2012-06-14direct syscall to open in __init_security needs O_LARGEFILERich Felker-1/+1
it probably does not matter for /dev/null, but this should be done consistently anyway.
2012-06-14reorder exit code to defer stdio flush until after dtorsRich Felker-4/+1
this is required in case dtors use stdio. also remove the old comments; one was cruft from when the code used to be using function pointers and conditional calls, and has little motivation now that we're using weak symbols. the other was just complaining about having to support dtors even though the cost was made essentially zero in the non-use case by the way it's done here.
2012-06-13add timegm function (inverse of gmtime), nonstandardRich Felker-0/+9
2012-06-13add init_module/delete_module syscall wrappersRich Felker-0/+11
these are not exposed publicly in any header, but the few programs that use them (modutils/kmod, etc.) are declaring the functions themselves rather than making the syscalls directly, and it doesn't really hurt to have them (same as the capset junk).
2012-06-13add (currently stubbed due to stubbed strverscmp) versionsort functionRich Felker-0/+8
based on patch by Emil Renner Berthing, with minor changes to dirent.h for LFS64 and organization of declarations this code should work unmodified once a real strverscmp is added, but I've been hesitant to add it because the GNU strverscmp behavior is harmful in a lot of cases (for instance if you have numeric filenames in hex). at some point I plan on trying to design a variant of the algorithm that behaves better on a mix of filename styles.
2012-06-13add deprecated capabilities functionsRich Felker-0/+11
these were left in glibc for binary compatibility after the public part of the interface was removed, and libcap kept using them (with its own copy of the header files) rather than just making the syscalls directly. might as well add them since they're so small...
2012-06-09fix char signedness bug (arm-specific) in dynamic linkerRich Felker-1/+1
2012-06-09add pthread_attr_setstack interface (and get)Rich Felker-10/+39
i originally omitted these (optional, per POSIX) interfaces because i considered them backwards implementation details. however, someone later brought to my attention a fairly legitimate use case: allocating thread stacks in memory that's setup for sharing and/or fast transfer between CPU and GPU so that the thread can move data to a GPU directly from automatic-storage buffers without having to go through additional buffer copies. perhaps there are other situations in which these interfaces are useful too.
2012-06-08fix scanning of "-0x" pseudo-hex float (must give negative zero)Rich Felker-1/+1
2012-06-08fix %ls breakage in last printf fixRich Felker-2/+2
signedness issue kept %ls with no precision from working at all
2012-06-08fix printf %ls with precision limit over-read issueRich Felker-2/+2
printf was not printing too many characters, but it was reading one too many wchar_t elements from the input. this could lead to crashes if running off the page, or spurious failure if the conversion of the extra wchar_t resulted in EILSEQ.
2012-06-07fix scanf bug reading literals after width-limited fieldRich Felker-0/+1
the field width limit was not being cleared before reading the literal, causing spurious failures in scanf in cases like "%2d:" scanning "00:".
2012-06-06treat failure of mprotect in map_library as a fatal load failureRich Felker-9/+9
the error will propagate up and be printed to the user at program start time; at runtime, dlopen will just fail and leave a message for dlerror. previously, if mprotect failed, subsequent attempts to perform relocations would crash the program. this was resulting in an increasing number of false bug reports on grsec systems where rwx permission is not possible in cases where users were wrongly attempting to use non-PIC code in shared libraries. supporting that usage is in theory possible, but the x86_64 toolchain does not even support textrels, and the cost of keeping around the necessary information to handle textrels without rwx permissions is disproportionate to the benefit (which is essentially just supporting broken library setups on grsec machines). also, i unified the error-out code in map_library now that there are 3 places from which munmap might have to be called.
2012-06-05fix ctype abi junk (pointer should point to 0 slot, not -128 slot)Rich Felker-3/+3
2012-06-02ensure that abort always worksRich Felker-0/+2
Per POSIX, "The abort() function shall cause abnormal process termination to occur, unless the signal SIGABRT is being caught and the signal handler does not return." If SIGABRT is blocked or if a signal handler is installed and does return, abort is still required to cause abnormal program termination. We cannot use a_crash() to do this, since a SIGILL handler could also be installed (and might even longjmp out of the abort, not expecting to be invoked from within abort), nor can we rely on resetting the signal handler and re-raising the signal (this has race conditions in multi-threaded programs). On the other hand, SIGKILL is a perfectly safe, unblockable way to obtain abnormal program termination, and it requires no ugly loop-and-retry logic.
2012-06-02add some ugly aliases for LSB ABI compatibilityRich Felker-0/+8
for some nonsensical reason, glibc's headers use inline functions that redirect some of the standard functions to ugly nonstandard names (and likewise for some of their nonstandard functions).
2012-06-02increase default thread stack size to 80kRich Felker-1/+1
I've been looking for data that would suggest a good default, and since little has shown up, i'm doing this based on the limited data I have. the value 80k is chosen to accommodate 64k of application data (which happens to be the size of the buffer in git that made it crash without a patch to call pthread_attr_setstacksize) plus the max stack usage of most libc functions (with a few exceptions like crypt, which will be fixed soon to avoid excessive stack usage, and [n]ftw, which inherently uses a fair bit in recursive directory searching). if further evidence emerges suggesting that the default should be larger, I'll consider changing it again, but I'd like to avoid it getting too large to avoid the issues of large commit charge and rapid address space exhaustion on 32-bit machines.
2012-06-02remove implementation-reserved bits when saving signal maskRich Felker-1/+11
this fix is necessary because a program could be started with some of the implementation-reserved signals masked (e.g. due to exec having been called from a signal handler, or from a non-musl program) and then could obtain an invalid-to-use-later sigset_t as the old/saved signal mask.
2012-06-02remove no-longer-needed unblocking of signals in pthread_createRich Felker-1/+0
this action is now performed in pthread_self initialization; it must be performed there in case the first call to pthread_create is from a signal handler, in which case the old signal mask could be restored on return from the signal.
2012-06-02add LSB abi junk for ctype functionsRich Felker-0/+104
this should be the last major fix needed to support running glibc-linked conforming POSIX programs with musl in place of glibc, as long as musl provides the features they need and they don't use pthread cancellation (which is implemented as c++ exceptions in glibc, and fundamentally incompatible with musl).
2012-06-02use fistpll mnemonic instead of fistpq (more widely supported) on x86_64 tooRich Felker-1/+1
this was fixed previously on i386 but the corresponding code on x86_64 was missed.
2012-05-31add LSB ABI __xstat, etc. junkRich Felker-0/+36
2012-05-31enable LARGEFILE64 aliasesRich Felker-4/+1
these will NOT be used when compiling with -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE on musl; instead, they exist in the hopes of eventually being able to run some glibc-linked apps with musl sitting in place of glibc. also remove the (apparently incorrect) fcntl alias.
