actually these are just weak aliases for the normal locking versions
right now, and they will probably stay that way since making them
lock-free without slowing down the normal versions would require
significant code duplication for no benefit.
programs that use this tend to horribly botch international text
support, so it's questionable whether we want to support it even in
the long term... for now, it's just a dummy that calls strcmp.
not heavily tested, but it seems to be correct, including the odd
behavior that seeking is in terms of wide character count. this
precludes any simple buffering, so we just make the stream unbuffered.
this is a "nonstandard" function that was "rejected" by POSIX, but
nonetheless had its behavior documented in the POSIX rationale for
fork. it's present on solaris and possibly some other systems, and
duplicates the whole calling process, not just a single thread. glibc
does not have this function. it should not be used in programs
intending to be portable, but may be useful for testing,
checkpointing, etc. and it's an interesting (and quite small) example
of the usefulness of the __synccall framework originally written to
work around deficiencies in linux's setuid syscall.
STREAMS are utterly useless as far as I can tell, but some software
was apparently broken by the presence of stropts.h but lack of macros
it's supposed to define...
this is a really ugly and backwards function, but its presence will
prevent lots of broken gnulib software from trying to define its own
version of fpurge and thereby failing to build or worse.
basically there are 3 choices for how to implement this variable-size
string member:
1. C99 flexible array member: breaks using dirent.h with pre-C99 compiler.
2. old way: length-1 string: generates array bounds warnings in caller.
3. new way: length-NAME_MAX string. no problems, simplifies all code.
of course the usable part in the pointer returned by readdir might be
shorter than NAME_MAX+1 bytes, but that is allowed by the standard and
doesn't hurt anything.
there is a resource limit of 0 bits to store the concurrency level
requested. thus any positive level exceeds a resource limit, resulting
in EAGAIN. :-)
this slightly cuts down on the degree musl "fights with" gcc, but more
importantly, it fixes a critical bug when gcc inlines a variadic
function and optimizes out the variadic arguments due to noticing that
they were "not used" (by __builtin_va_arg).
we leave the old code in place if __GNUC__ >= 3 is false; it seems
like it might be necessary at least for tinycc support and perhaps if
anyone ever gets around to fixing gcc 2.95.3 enough to make it work..
