the text covering an ill-advised procedure for 'bootstrapping' a new
musl-based system in-place is removed. new information on targets and
compilers is added. formatting improved. the remaining text is
adjusted to cover both usage with musl-gcc on a non-musl-based system
and upgrading a musl-based system or toolchain.

|
otherwise a multilib compiler used with -mx32 will not be detected
properly.
|
|
in the previous changes, I missed the fact that both the prototype of
the sigaltstack function and the definition of ucontext_t depend on
stack_t.
|
|
like almost everything on mips, this is gratuitously different.
|
|
it's different at least on mips. mips version will be fixed in a
separate commit to show the change.
|
|
this was missed in the previous commit.

the excess space was unused and unintentional. this change does not
affect the ABI between applications and libc. while it does
theoretically affect linkage between third-party translation units
using jmp_buf as part of a structure, we've already changed jmp_buf at
least once on all archs, and problems were never observed, likely
because such usage would be very unusual. in any case it's best to get
things right now rather than making changes sometime during the 1.0.x
series or later.
|
|
this seems to have been copied erroneously from the arm version of the
file. it's fairly harmless but it's a mistake and better to fix now
than later.
|
|
on x32, this change allows programs which use syscall() with pointers
or 64-bit values as arguments to work correctly, i.e. without
truncation or incorrect sign extension. on all other supported archs,
syscall_arg_t is defined as long, so this change is a no-op.
|
|
the previous pattern required "x32" to be used as the second field of
the gcc tuple, which is usually reserved for vendor use and not
appropriate as an ABI specifier. with this change, putting "x32" at
the end of the tuple, the way ABI specifiers are normally done, is
also permitted.
|
|
the omission of the padding was uncovered by the latest regression
statvfs regression test added to libc-test.
|
|
the incorrect error codes also made their way into errno when
__ptsname_r was called by plain ptsname, which reports errors via
errno rather than a return value.

Applications ended up with copy relocations for this array, which
resulted in libc's references to this array pointing to the
application's copy. The dynamic linker, however, can require this array
before the application is relocated, and therefore before the
application's copy of this array is initialized. This resulted in
garbage being loaded into FPSCR before executing main, which violated
the ABI.
We fix this by putting the array in crt1 and making the libc copy
private. This prevents libc's reference to the array from pointing to
an uninitialized copy in the application.

it's UB to fetch variadic args when none are passed, and this caused
real crashes on ppc due to its calling convention, which defines that
for variadic functions aggregate types be passed as pointers.
the assignment caused that pointer to get dereferenced, resulting in
a crash.
|
|
The mips statfs struct layout is different than on other archs, so the
statfs, fstatfs, statvfs and fstatvfs APIs were broken on mips.
Now the ordering is fixed, the types are kept consistent with other archs.
|
|
This used to be broken when all archs had the same semid_ds definition:
there is no padding around the time_t members on mips.
|
|
these were incorrectly copied from the kernel, whose ABI matches the
POSIX requirements but with the wrong underlying types and wrong
signedness.
|
|
these have been wrong for a long time and were never detected or
corrected. powerpc needs some gratuitous extra padding/reserved slots
in ipc_perm, big-endian ordering for the padding of time_t slots that
was intended by the kernel folks to allow a transition to 64-bit
time_t, and some minor gratuitous reordering of struct members.
|
|
the definition was found to be incorrect at least for powerpc, and
fixing this cleanly requires making the definition arch-specific. this
will allow cleaning up the definition for other archs to make it more
specific, and reversing some of the ugliness (time_t hacks) introduced
with the x32 port.
this first commit simply copies the existing definition to each arch
without any changes. this is intentional, to make it easier to review
changes made on a per-arch basis.

Remove non-constant aggregate initializer. (Still using long long, but
that is supported by ancient compilers without __extension__ anyway).
|
|
the printf floating point formatting code contains an optimization to
avoid computing digits that will be thrown away by rounding at the
specified (or default) precision. while it was correctly retaining all
places up to the last decimal place to be printed, it was not
retaining enough precision to see the next nonzero decimal place in
all cases. this could cause incorrect rounding down in round-to-even
(default) rounding mode, for example, when printing 0.5+DBL_EPSILON
with "%.0f".
in the fix, LDBL_MANT_DIG/3 is a lazy (non-sharp) upper bound on the
number of zeros between any two nonzero decimal digits.

empirically the overflow was an off-by-one, and it did not seem to be
overwriting meaningful data. rather than simply increasing the buffer
size by one, however, I have attempted to make the size obviously
correct in terms of bounds on the number of iterations for the loops
that fill the buffer. this still results in no more than a negligible
size increase of the buffer on the stack (6-7 32-bit slots) and is a
"safer" fix unless/until somebody wants to do the proof that a smaller
buffer would suffice.
|
|
this was problematic because several archs don't define __WORDSIZE. we
could add it, but I would rather phase this macro out in the long
term. in our version of the headers, UINTPTR_MAX is available here, so
just use it instead.
