the resolution to Austin Group issue #411 defined new semantics for
the posix_spawn dup2 file action in the (previously useless) case
where src and dest fd are equal. future issues will require the dup2
file action to remove the close-on-exec flag. without this change,
passing fds to a child with posix_spawn while avoiding fd-leak races
in a multithreaded parent required a complex dance with temporary fds.
based on patch by Petr Skocik. changes were made to preserve the
80-column formatting of the function and to remove code that became
unreachable as a result of the new functionality.
This allows a list of all symbols exports by wasm.js to be
generated which is usefull for passing to my prototype of
lld which takes an --allow-undefined-symbols=<filename>
argument.
commit 06fbefd10046a0fae7e588b7c6d25fb51811b931 (first included in
release 1.1.17) introduced this regression.
patch by Adrian Bunk. it fixes the regression in all cases, but
spuriously prevents use of the clz instruction on very old compiler
versions that don't define __ARM_ARCH. this may be fixed in a more
general way at some point in the future. it also omits thumb1 logic
since building as thumb1 code is currently not supported.
commit 8c4be3e2209d2a1d3874b8bc2b474668fcbbbac6 was written to
preclude the GLOB_PERIOD extension from matching these directory
entries, but also precluded literal matches.
adjust the check that excludes . and .. to check whether the
GLOB_PERIOD flag is in effect, so that it cannot alter behavior in
cases governed by the standard, and also don't exclude . or .. in any
case where normal glob behavior (fnmatch's FNM_PERIOD flag) would have
included one or both of them (patterns such as ".*").
it's still not clear whether this is the preferred behavior for
GLOB_PERIOD, but at least it's clear that it can no longer break
applications which are not relying on quirks of a nonstandard feature.
execvpe stack-allocates a buffer used to hold the full path
(combination of a PATH entry and the program name)
while searching through $PATH, so at least
NAME_MAX+PATH_MAX is needed.
The stack size can be made conditionally smaller
(the current 1024 appears appropriate)
should this larger size be burdensome in those situations.
MAXADDRS was chosen not to need enforcement, but the logic used to
compute it assumes the answers received match the RR types of the
queries. specifically, it assumes that only one replu contains A
record answers. if the replies to both the A and the AAAA query have
their answer sections filled with A records, MAXADDRS can be exceeded
and clobber the stack of the calling function.
this bug was found and reported by Felix Wilhelm.
the rightmost '/' character is not necessarily the delimiter before
the basename; it could be a spurious trailing character on the
directory name.
this change does not introduce any normalization of pathnames or
stripping of trailing slashes, contrary to at least glibc and perhaps
other implementations; it jusst prevents their presence from breaking
things. whether further changes should be made is an open question
that may depend on conformance and/or application compatibility
considerations.
based loosely on patch by Joakim Sindholt.
calling __unlock on t->exitlock is not valid because __unlock reads
the waiters count after making the atomic store that could allow
pthread_exit to continue and unmap the thread's stack and the object t
points to. for now, inline the __unlock logic with an unconditional
futex wake operation so that the waiters count is not needed.
once __lock/__unlock have been made safe for self-synchronized
destruction, we could switch back to using them.
the freebsd fma code failed to raise underflow exception in some
cases in nearest rounding mode (affects fmal too) e.g.
fma(-0x1p-1000, 0x1.000001p-74, 0x1p-1022)
and the inexact exception may be raised spuriously since the fenv
is not saved/restored around the exact multiplication algorithm
(affects x86 fma too).
another issue is that the underflow behaviour when the rounded result
is the minimal normal number is target dependent, ieee754 allows two
ways to raise underflow for inexact results: raise if the result before
rounding is in the subnormal range (e.g. aarch64, arm, powerpc) or if
the result after rounding with infinite exponent range is in the
subnormal range (e.g. x86, mips, sh).
to avoid all these issues the algorithm was rewritten with mostly int
arithmetics and float arithmetics is only used to get correct rounding
and raise exceptions according to the behaviour of the target without
any fenv.h dependency. it also unifies x86 and non-x86 fma.
fmaf is not affected, fmal need to be fixed too.
this algorithm depends on a_clz_64 and it required a few spurious
instructions to make sure underflow exception is raised in a particular
corner case. (normally FORCE_EVAL(tiny*tiny) would be used for this,
but on i386 gcc is broken if the expression is constant
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=57245
and there is no easy portable fix for the macro.)
this is for consistency with the way it's done in in the dynamic
linker, avoiding a deprecated C feature (non-prototype function
types), and improving code generation. GCC unnecessarily uses the
variadic calling convention (e.g. clearing rax on x86_64) when making
a call where the argument types are not known for compatibility with
wrong code which calls variadic functions this way. (C on the other
hand is clear that such calls have undefined behavior.)
this is a subtle issue with how the assembler/linker work. for the adr
pseudo-instruction used to find __hwcap, the assembler in thumb mode
generates a 16-bit thumb add instruction which can only represent
word-aligned addresses, despite not knowing the alignment of the
label. if the setjmp function is assigned a non-multiple-of-4 address
at link time, the load then loads from the wrong address (the last
instruction rather than the data containing the offset) and ends up
reading nonsense instead of the value of __hwcap. this in turn causes
the checks for floating-point/vector register sets (e.g. IWMMX) to
evaluate incorrectly, crashing when setjmp/longjmp try to save/restore
those registers.
fix based on bug report by Felix Hädicke.
under some conditions, the mmap syscall wrongly fails with EPERM
instead of ENOMEM when memory is exhausted; this is probably the
result of the kernel trying to fit the allocation somewhere that
crosses into the kernel range or below mmap_min_addr. in any case it's
a conformance bug, so work around it. for now, only handle the case of
anonymous mappings with no requested address; in other cases EPERM may
be a legitimate error.
this indirectly fixes the possibility of malloc failing with the wrong
errno value.
GLOB_PERIOD is a gnu extension, and GNU glob does not seem to honor it
except in the last path component. it's not clear whether this a bug
or intentional, but it seems reasonable that it should exclude the
special entries . and .. when walking.
