13: remove some compiler warnings (Luc Van Oostenryck)
14: better rand() from Knuth's TAOCP (Luc Van Oostenryck)
1.352 fefe 15: fix unified x86_64 unified syscall 64-bit return value issue (Gwenole)
1.353 fefe 16: the getdents64 emulation was broken and repairing it opened a can of
17: worms. So I ripped it out. I also changed the readdir64 emulation
18: to work if there is no getdents64.
1.354 fefe 19: fix ia64 start.S (Thanks to Volker Birk for an account on his ia64 box)
1.355 fefe 20: many ia64 fixes (waitpid, nice, fork, vfork, time, utime ...)
1.356 fefe 21: More fixes from Gwenole (printf %p only printed the last 32 bits, I
22: botched the getdents64 #ifdefs, we violated the x86_64 ABI)

28: I worked around it with conditional assembly in cpp macros. Ugh.
1.361 fefe 29: more MIPS fixes (the stoned MIPS ABI for restartable syscalls expects
30: the instruction before the syscall to be a load immediate)
31: fix fread() from a pipe (oops, tried to lseek)
1.362 fefe 32: #define _POSIX_VDISABLE in termios.h (Laurent Bercot)
1.363 fefe 33: two *printf fixes (Gernot Tenchio)

49: use -G 8 on MIPS to reduce code size (Johannes Stezenbach)
1.328 fefe 50: add munlock (Jens Låås)
1.330 fefe 51: argh, atexit fell victim to bit rot (or maybe Olaf)
1.331 fefe 52: add WANT_INET_ADDR_DNS to make gethostbyname not look up IP numbers
53: but use them to fill in the struct hostent directly.
1.332 olaf 54: signal is now a correct signal (Olaf)
1.333 fefe 55: read optimizer cflags for diet -Os gcc from ~/.diet/gcc, overriding
56: the built-in defaults.
1.334 fefe 57: add file "SECURITY". I will document design tradeoffs that have
58: security implications there.
1.335 fefe 59: fixed regex LINEEND condition

1.285 fefe 94: Michal Ludvig ported the diet libc to the x86_64 architecture (the
95: upcoming AMD Hammer chips!). You can't even buy the chips yet and
96: the diet libc already supports it! Amazing ;-)
97: Michal's patch also fixed several of the outstanding warnings. Thanks!
1.286 fefe 98: Andre sent a patch to add ARM profiling. He says it does not work
99: yet, but it's a start.

134: adjusted lstat->lstat64 #define to make it work with function pointers
135: move __dietlibc__ #define from features.h to diet
1.267 fefe 136: Thomas Ogrisegg sent x86 memccpy and strncpy routines and introduced
137: an dietfeatures.h #define WANT_FULL_POSIX_COMPAT
1.268 fefe 138: Thomas also sent me profiling support (so far only on x86, but
139: profiling/PORTING describes what needs to be done for other
140: architectures)!
1.272 fefe 141: add contrib/dprof.c, also from Thomas.
1.269 fefe 142: Andreas Krennmair sent a patch to add the BSD regex interface to
143: libcompat
1.271 fefe 144: Andre noticed that __dtostr never sets first to false. Oops!
1.274 fefe 145: Andre has provided a largely untested patch that seems to fix the problem.
1.275 fefe 146: Igor Gilitschenski sent a patch for the "%8.7lx" issue.
1.276 fefe 147: abort did not flush all stdio streams
1.277 fefe 148: fix some nasty regular expression bugs
149: write a stupid malloc checker (contrib/debug-realloc.c) to help me
150: debug my regular expressions. Please read contrib/debug-realloc.txt
1.278 fefe 151: our i386 memchr,memcmp were broken for the count=0 case
1.279 fefe 152: fix DNS domain search
1.280 fefe 153: i386 memccpy exchanged esi and edi :-( I should do more checks before
154: accepting external code...
1.264 fefe 155:
1.244 fefe 156: 0.16:
157: "diet -v" or "diet -Os" segfaulted without further arguments.
1.246 fefe 158: Andre found two very embarassing bugs in my four lines of md5 glue.
159: I need to get more sleep.
1.247 fefe 160: Thanks Ogrisegg found that ptrace does not work as documented and
161: provided a wrapper that emulates the glibc behaviour.
1.248 fefe 162: Dirk Engling saved 8 bytes and 4 cycles in the ARM clone()
163: fix ptrace.h for S/390 and ARM
164: provide a PORTING document so we don't lose track of which file need
165: to be touched to port the diet libc to a new platform.
1.249 fefe 166: remove a few warnings
167: provide a prototype for usleep.
1.250 fefe 168: make __dtostr work on ARM by using long instead of long long.
169: Idea by Dirk Engling.
1.251 fefe 170: fix an argument counting bug in *scanf (Thomas Ogrisegg)
1.252 fefe 171: Forgot an #endif in asm/sigcontext.h (Mike Castle)
1.253 fefe 172: Kurt Garloff sent in patches to
173: fix struct termios on non-x86 architectures
1.254 fefe 174: printf("%+05d\n",500) was broken (Raimar Falke told me, Olaf fixed it)
175: create libcompat.a (and move daemon to it)
1.255 fefe 176: add getdelim and getline
177: *printf now recognize 'z' integer flag (and ignore it)
1.256 olaf 178: Dirk Engling provided a strcpy.S for ARM.
1.257 olaf 179: Olaf: fixed *scanf familie. It hadn't wored with "long long".

1.244 fefe 187:
1.224 fefe 188: 0.15:
1.225 fefe 189: vfork sucks. I reverted to the old behavior where vfork==fork.
1.226 fefe 190: fix bsearch (and remove i386 assembly bsearch, needs to be redone).
1.227 fefe 191: Thanks Ogrisegg sent a patch to make the PA-RISC unified syscall
192: thread-safe!
1.228 fefe 193: remove vfork and add alarm to dynamic syscalls.
194: fix diet-dyn to link in dyn_dstop.o and not dyn_stop.o.
1.229 fefe 195: The MD5 code generated unaligned accesses when passed an unaligned
196: pointer on little endian ARM and MIPS.
197: MIPS unified syscall didn't compile anymore.
198: Put up new mipsel target to cross compile for little endian mips.
199: The mips target will again explicitly set endianness to big endian.
200: Compiling natively on a MIPS box should not touch the endianness.
1.230 fefe 201: Duh, when we removed return0, we broke tzset when the time zone parser
202: was disabled. Uwe Ohse noticed this. Thanks!
203: Fix gethostbyname to match host names case insensitively in /etc/hosts.
204: Oops, this was reported 6 weeks ago but I overlooked the email.
205: Thanks, Denis Rachal!
1.231 fefe 206: vsnprintf's zero termination was broken.
1.233 fefe 207: Uwe Ohse found a few more bugs:
208: Remove WANT_BUGGY_GLIBC_STRSEP. The Linux man page is broken, glibc
209: does it correctly.
210: Make inet_aton use strtoul instead of strtol
211: fdopen would close the file descriptor if it could not malloc the
212: buffer.
213: strftime updates.
214: Make _FILE_OFFSET_BITS includes -Wundef clean
215: Andre found a typo in endian.h for big endian mips
1.234 fefe 216: Ryan told me that fmod was not included in libm. Oops.
1.235 fefe 217: strstr(whatever,"") returned NULL, not whatever. Found by a new test
218: suite entry for strstr that I wrote.
1.245 fefe 219: Thomas Ogrisegg suggested or sent patches for the following:
1.236 fefe 220: add <asm/sigcontext.h> for profiling support.
221: make strncpy a #define in string.h to save a few bytes.
1.241 fefe 222: an i386 assembler getenv implementation (roughly half the size)
223: add grantpt, ptsname, unlockpt
1.236 fefe 224: add a getenv test suite entry.
1.238 fefe 225: Andre contributed an ARM assembler md5 implementation and he fixed mmap
226: on ARM.
227: add glibc macro names in sys/reboot.h. Mentioned by Laurent G. Bercot
1.239 fefe 228: getservent_r did not parse lines without aliases. Thanks, Jaroslav
229: Macodiseas!
1.240 fefe 230: fix MIPS start code (argv[0] was always corrupt)
1.241 fefe 231: removed annoying -Wconversion gcc switch
1.242 fefe 232: add -v to diet.c and fix MIPS CFLAGS in diet. Thanks, Johannes Stezenbach
1.243 fefe 233: Kurt Garloff sent these diffs:
234: add fdatasync (and make it a pthread cancellation point)
235: numerous alpha issues, like using .quad instead of .long for
236: offsets, change strip to -strip in Makefile (so a failing strip does
237: not abort the make), try to be more friendly to the gcc 2.96 that
238: SuSE 7.1 AXP ships with.
1.224 fefe 239:
1.209 fefe 240: 0.14:
1.224 fefe 241: fix brk again (missing __brk, trivial oversight)
1.210 fefe 242: a new i386/atol.S that is 4 bytes smaller (and faster, too!). Thanks,
243: Thomas Ogrisegg!
1.211 fefe 244: Thomas also contributed a PA-RISC port including testandset, so
245: libpthread will work once we implement clone! Great work, Thomas.
1.212 fefe 246: made the fake locale more believable.
247: If you need gettext, use http://www.ca.postgresql.org/~petere/gettext.html
1.213 fefe 248: moved _exit into the unified syscall on x86.
1.214 fefe 249: Uwe Ohse found many more bugs:
250: getpass EINTR handling, ttyname, sysconf_cpus with SLASH_PROC_OK,
251: liblatin1 was more or less completely broken if you gave it chars as
252: arguments, not ints (signedness). execvp had a buffer overflow in
253: case a PATH element exceeded PATH_MAX, but it's not a security
254: problem since setuid programs need to set their path to some known
255: value anyway.
1.219 fefe 256: hasmntopt did not work with foo=bar style options
1.217 fefe 257: Uwe also improved ftw's stack usage.
1.214 fefe 258: Put movl instead of popl rationale in comment in i386/unified.S since
259: three people have suggested saving a few bytes with popl now ;)
1.215 fefe 260: I discovered __attribute__((malloc)) and started using it. For gcc 3,
261: it improves the optimizer when functions return malloced pointers.
1.216 fefe 262: Steven Rostedt pointed out that my setvbuf was broken with regard to
263: size==0 and sent a patch to fix it.
1.218 fefe 264: Thomas Ogrisegg made setenv smaller.
1.220 olaf 265: Olaf: implemented the parisc clone and an atomic testandset, modified the
266: libpthread to respect the parisc UPgrowing stack. still non functional,
267: because the unified syscall uses errno :(
1.221 fefe 268: tcgetospeed read from the wrong termios field. Thanks, Gunnar Ritter!
1.222 fefe 269: Fixed asprintf (relied on vsnprintf(NULL,...) to return length but
270: don't write anything which was no longer the case. It also
271: allocated one byte unnecessarily, which Uwe Ohse found.
1.223 fefe 272: Fix ttyname (readlink does not \0-terminate, forgot to do that).
1.209 fefe 273:
1.193 fefe 274: 0.13:
1.194 fefe 275: add readdir64 and automatic mapping if _FILE_OFFSET_BITS == 64
1.199 fefe 276: make diet not include the linker safeguard stuff when preprocessing
1.207 fefe 277: Olaf: port to S/390!
1.196 leitner 278: me: fix vfork (it was put into dietlibc.a twice)
1.197 leitner 279: res_query did not initialize last
1.199 fefe 280: diet (not diet-dyn, of course) now adds -static to the gcc command line
1.198 leitner 281: fixed fflush on input streams (tic from ncurses exposed this)
1.199 fefe 282: duh, there is an alarm system call, too, so we use it and not setitimer
1.200 fefe 283: fix comparison in gmtime_r that caused Jan 1 to be converted to Dec 32.
1.201 fefe 284: rewrote __dtostr (it also has one more argument now)
1.205 fefe 285: Thanks to Erik Troan for bringing these to my attention:
1.204 fefe 286: make putenv behave like glibc (putenv("HOME") == unsetenv("HOME"))
287: fix strncat for the case where n == 0 (security implications?)
288: fix bsearch (it didn't find the very last element in the array, same
289: bug in both the C and the i386 assembly version).
1.205 fefe 290: fixed FNM_PATHNAME in fnmatch
1.204 fefe 291: fix brk (the syscall was documented incorrectly in the Linux man page)
292: Thanks, Thomas Ogrisegg!
1.205 fefe 293: added negated character classes to fnmatch (not required by POSIX)
1.206 fefe 294: make the utmp routines open utmp read-only if read-write doesn't work.
1.208 fefe 295: remove syscalls.c directory, it is obsolete now with unified syscalls
1.193 fefe 296:
1.164 fefe 297: 0.12:
298: more contributions from Frank Klemm.
1.165 fefe 299: iconv can now do UCS-2, too.
1.167 fefe 300: Imported several x86 assembly routines from Wouter van Kleunen.
1.166 fefe 301: Lots of bug fixes, and several more i386 specific versions of common
302: routines to make them smaller.
1.168 fefe 303: add memmem (a GNU extension that looks useful)
1.170 fefe 304: several changes from Michal Ludvig: inttypes.h gets C99 macros,
1.168 fefe 305: add pivot_root syscall, %n for *scanf.
1.169 fefe 306: add adjtimex (thanks, Laurent BERCOT)
1.171 fefe 307: add Frank Klemm's optimized md5
1.172 fefe 308: add -Os option to diet (see diet.1).
1.173 fefe 309: several IPv6 constants and HZ were missing, thanks Johannes Kloos.
1.174 fefe 310: add 32-bit uid/gid syscalls.
1.175 fefe 311: add rand48 (thanks, Johannes Kloos)
1.176 fefe 312: fixed a lot of bugs in getopt* (thanks, Johannes)
1.177 fefe 313: add strxfrm and tweak limits.h. glib-1.3.8 now compiles without changes.
314: add a few more module syscalls. modutils-2.4.9 now compiles without changes.
315: fix gethostent alias list termination. Major oops.
1.178 fefe 316: add execle and two DNS constants (from Johannes Kloos).
1.179 fefe 317: opendir did not close-on-exec (thanks, Laurent Bercot).
1.180 fefe 318: DNS will now properly signal errors and set h_errno.
319: A few more cleanups (thanks, Andreas Jabs and Matthias Andree).
1.181 fefe 320: Added an uber-cool linker safeguard feature! Idea by Matthias Andree.
321: If you enable WANT_SAFEGUARD in dietfeatures.h, diet will include an
322: external reference to a symbol that is only in the diet libc. So,
323: when you accidentally link a diet libc compiled object file against
324: glibc, the linker will barf. This will bloat your object files, but
325: you can remove all the references with "strip -R .note" from
326: the binaries in the end (which you should do anyway).
1.182 fefe 327: fix ARM unified syscall (select did not work).
1.183 fefe 328: add getpwent_r ala glibc and replace getpwent
329: do the same for getgrent and getspent
330: remove entlib (new code is smaller)
1.184 fefe 331: rewrite getserv* to use parselib (and provide ..._r, too)
1.185 fefe 332: add getpwnam_r and getpwuid_r
1.186 fefe 333: rewrite getproto* to use parselib (and protive ..._r, too)
1.187 fefe 334: Olaf muddled with the dynamic linker. It's a clean-room
335: implementation in the sense that it once worked for Olaf in a clean
336: room ;)
1.188 fefe 337: add if_nameindex and if_freenameindex.
338: fixed arm unified syscalls to work with current binutils (; is no
339: longer a line separator but starts a comment, switched to .macro)
1.189 fefe 340: changed all st_[cma]time types to signed long so comparisons against
341: LONG_MIN will work correctly. (GNU tar does this)
1.190 fefe 342: fixed two bugs regarding ungetc.
343: add getusershell, setusershell, endusershell (for vs_ftpd)
344: add prctl, dirfd (also for vs_ftpd)
1.191 fefe 345: fixed strftime (was completely hosed)
1.192 fefe 346: added real make install target
1.164 fefe 347:
1.115 fefe 348: 0.11:
349: fix major oops in DNS routines (only with WANT_FULL_RESOLV_CONF enabled).
1.116 fefe 350: fix vsscanf bug (Thanks, David Chappell).
1.117 fefe 351: add floor, ceil and memchr prototypes.
352: add __builtin_expect and expect #defines for gcc versions below 3.0
1.118 fefe 353: cleaner errno vs __errno_location handling
354: add placeholder iconv (iconv_open will always return EINVAL)
355: try to remove kernel 2.4 header dependency in IPv6 sockaddr_in6
356: initialization of getaddrinfo.
1.119 fefe 357: fix vsnprintf %X (printed lower case)
1.120 fefe 358: I wrote a new getopt. It appears to actually work (it is POSIX
359: compliant, it does not sort argv like the GNU version) and is only
360: a little over 300 bytes on x86.
1.121 fefe 361: Guillaume Cottenceau just wrote me that strncat should be even more
362: broken than it already is: it should append n bytes AND THEN \0!
363: I wonder how many programmers have produces off-by-one errors here...
1.122 fefe 364: Fix regexec offset return. autoconf now believes that diet libc has
365: POSIX regular expressions.
1.123 fefe 366: Fix fnmatch (a/b/* matched a/b/c/d even if FNM_PATHNAME was set)
1.124 fefe 367: Fix regular expression match for x* when there is no x at all.
1.125 fefe 368: Fix memory leak in error case in gethostbyname(2|). Thanks, Dietz Pröpper.
1.126 fefe 369: Add %h to vsnprintf.
1.127 fefe 370: Add FAQ.
1.128 fefe 371: Make %h work for signed numbers and add %hh to vsnprintf.
372: initgroups ignored the group argument :-(
373: remove printf references and nested functions from glob.
1.129 fefe 374: added an errno in libpthread that will display a prominent linker
375: warning.
1.131 fefe 376: started getting rid of kernel headers. Big task! :-(
1.130 fefe 377: add res_mkquery. The diet libc can now compile and link mtr.
1.132 olaf 378: Olaf: added a lot of code in libdl (not yet complete), changed the
379: startup code to make it work with his libdl and ld.so (needs still work
380: too)
1.134 fefe 381: __dns_readstartfiles only took the first domain or search path.
382: Thanks, Anthony de Boer
1.133 olaf 383: Olaf: added clone and a new unified_syscall for PowerPC
384: also dynlinker is now available (i386 only at this time)
1.135 fefe 385: crufted together a stdarg.h implementation from the various gcc headers.
1.136 fefe 386: implement getopt_long (ugh, the GNU people need professional help)
1.137 fefe 387: fixed word delimiters in regex (they looked for space, i.e. "," did
388: not work as delimiter)
1.138 fefe 389: errno.h now declares sys_errlist and sys_nerr.
1.143 fefe 390: added mkdtemp.
1.142 fefe 391: Uwe Ohse reported all of the following bugs:
392: ttyname should return 0 if !isatty.
393: realpath returns NULL if "." cannot be opened
394: putenv erroneously accepted (and mishandled) entries without "=".
395: popen returned 255 instead of 127 if /bin/sh could not be run.
396: fgetc did not set the internal EOF indicator on EOF.
397: bsearch contained an assumption about integer arithmetic overflow
398: behavior.
399: system did not set SIGCHLD and thus contained a race.
400: popen did not set close-on-exec and could leak an fd on malloc error.
1.147 fefe 401: daemon did not check whether open returns an fd below 3
402: perror did not save errno.
1.144 olaf 403: Olaf: Peter Jones reported some problems with perror; strerror had the
404: same problem.
405: Peter also posted a patch to atexit/exit. With some modifications it is
406: now implemented.
1.145 fefe 407: Unbuffered stdio and ungetc can no longer be disabled. I will try to
408: implement part of it using ELF weak symbols.
1.146 fefe 409: Added minimal sysconf (tehe) from David Chappell.
1.148 fefe 410: Added overflow handling for strtoul and strtol.
1.149 fefe 411: Added WANT_ETC_HOSTS in dietfeatures.h and made gethostbyname/2 use
412: it before falling back to DNS if enabled.
1.150 fefe 413: Added a littie backwards compatibility cruft for gpm (man, do these
414: sources stink!)
1.151 fefe 415: Added openpty.
1.152 fefe 416: Squeeze a few bytes off the is* routines, courtesy of Peter Jones.
1.154 fefe 417: Fix fseek return value.
1.155 fefe 418: Add dirname and basename.
1.156 fefe 419: Add a few i386 math routines contributed by Frank Klemm.
1.157 fefe 420: Fixed getservent (did not allow _ and - in the aliases).
421: Thanks, Oden Eriksson
1.158 fefe 422: Added a float.h so configure believes we have ANSI header files.
423: Fix a lot more stdio bugs that Uwe Ohse pointed out.
1.162 fefe 424: Olaf: has added a new scanf and printf core that is suitable for all
1.159 olaf 425: scanf and printf function implementations
1.160 fefe 426: Imported a few more functions and optimizations from Frank Klemm (he
427: also rewrote dtostr to have more precision)
1.161 olaf 428: Olaf: checked in a new sig* function family (based on rt_sig*).
429: legacy <2.2 signal-handling doesn't work at the moment.
1.163 fefe 430: Made rudimentary iconv that can convert back and forth between
431: iso-8859-1, utf-8 and ucs-4 (for debugging).
432: Thanks to Markus Kuhn for the excellent utf-8(7)!
1.115 fefe 433:
1.74 fefe 434: 0.10:
435: update getpagesize.
436: add personality.
1.75 fefe 437: add "%*s" and "%*.*s" support to vsnprintf.
1.76 fefe 438: add putchar (apparently arm-linux-gcc will substitute printf("\n")
439: with putchar('\n') behind your back...?!
1.77 fefe 440: import include/scsi/ from glibc.
1.78 fefe 441: add iopl.
1.80 fefe 442: add execl and sigdelset prototypes.
443: add getopt_long stuff to getopt.h (may compile but won't link).
1.81 fefe 444: add RPC headers (no code yet).
1.82 fefe 445: add mlockall, munlockall
1.83 fefe 446: make "diet gcc foo.c" work.
447: added Sun RPC code and removed as many warnings as possible in a
448: heroic act of self-mutilation.
449: added getproto* and getdtablesize for the RPC cruft :-(
1.84 fefe 450: added getpass. mount from util-linux actually compiles now!
451: fix the sig*set routines. mount actually works now *bg*
452: fix fwrite dividing by zero when trying to fwrite n records of size 0.
1.85 fefe 453: added an initial regex implementation (3500 bytes!!!).
1.87 fefe 454: add llseek and lseek64 with optional lseek fall-back.
1.88 fefe 455: add res_init.
456: add asprintf (ugh, what an ugly function).
1.89 fefe 457: expanded arpa/nameser.h to include backwards compatibility defines
1.90 fefe 458: add ut_name alias to ut_host in struct utmp.
459: add inet_ntop, inet_pton, gethostbyname2.
1.92 fefe 460: add sysinfo, recvmsg, sendmsg.
1.93 fefe 461: add endmntent, getmntent, setmntent.
1.94 fefe 462: fix fnmatch (thanks, Guillaume Cottenceau!)
1.96 fefe 463: add setenv.
464: remove __restrict from mntent.h, add __restrict__ removal alias for
465: older gcc versions in sys/cdefs.h.
466: add rlim_t, sig_atomic_t declarations.
467: add sigsetjmp #define for __sigsetjmp (oops).
468: (Thanks to Chris Siebenmann for these three bug reports)
1.97 fefe 469: add a gruesome hack to printf floating point to accept %f and kludge
470: together support for %.2f. Don't look at the code, please!
1.98 fefe 471: fixed tcsetpgrp (oops, this is embarassing! Thanks, Chris Siebenmann)
1.99 fefe 472: imported fix for entlib by Jeff Garzik.
1.100 fefe 473: add glob implementation from Guillaume Cottenceau (Thanks!!)
474: add libdl fragments from Olaf (Yeah! One step closer to dynamic linking!)
1.101 fefe 475: add REG_ICASE and word start/end handling to my regular expressions.
476: my regular expressions now actually match substrings (i.e. "foobar" to "bar").
1.102 fefe 477: wrap getcwd to comply to man page (the syscall returns the number of
478: bytes, not the buffer)
479: add realpath.
1.103 fefe 480: fix vfprintf.
1.104 fefe 481: fix *scanf %s zero termination.
482: add abs, labs, llabs.
1.105 fefe 483: add <sys/io.h>, ioperm syscall.
484: add flock to <sys/file.h>
1.106 fefe 485: fixes to bsearch and the regular expressions.
1.107 fefe 486: add fake herror.
1.108 fefe 487: add scandir and alphasort.
1.109 fefe 488: add killpg
1.110 fefe 489: implemented a gross hack to make libpthread compile when
490: dietfeatures.h does not define WANT_THREAD_SAFE (it's empty then).
1.111 fefe 491: add getaddrinfo and freeaddrinfo (man, what a fucked up interface!)
1.112 fefe 492: fix sigsuspend (syscall had completely fscked up arguments!)
1.113 fefe 493: RLIM_INFINITY from the kernel is broken. Thanks to Chris Siebenmann
494: for sending a patch.
1.114 fefe 495: add getserv*.
496: add WANT_FULL_RESOLV_CONF so that the DNS routines use "domain" and
497: "search" from resolv.conf.
1.74 fefe 498:
1.73 fefe 499: 0.9:
1.65 fefe 500: fixed initgroups (oops)
1.66 fefe 501: Cleanup appending file open for stdio (thanks, James Antill)
502: imported vfprintf fix from James Antill.
1.67 fefe 503: add fnmatch
504: change index, rindex and bcmp as weak ELF symbols (were #defined before)
1.68 fefe 505: Olaf added character classes to *scanf.
1.69 fefe 506: Put object and library files into a separate directory (bin-$ARCH).
507: Add "cross" make target to make all architectures.
508: Add "diet" program and man page.
1.70 fefe 509: Add getgrnam, getgrgid
1.71 fefe 510: Add cfmakeraw (Thanks, Antonio Musumeci)
1.72 fefe 511: localtime won't call gettimeofday when the tzfile parser is used.
1.65 fefe 512:
1.64 fefe 513: 0.8:
1.34 fefe 514: vsnprintf(0,...) estimated the length of strings with a padding width
515: incorrectly.
1.35 fefe 516: new reboot() from Olaf.
1.36 fefe 517: added prototypes for getsockopt and setsockopt.
1.39 fefe 518: added experimental sem* and shm*
1.38 fefe 519: define EXIT_SUCCESS and EXIT_FAILURE
1.40 fefe 520: added setvbuf (only changes mode, not buffer)
1.41 fefe 521: added dietwarning.h (woohoo, linker warnings!) and used it to warn of
522: insecurity (system, sprintf) or bloat (printf and stdio).
1.42 fefe 523: added qsort() and bsearch(). Benchmark on 1000 random ints:
524: glibc: 679414 cycles qsort and 3352 cycles bsearch
525: diet libc: 300010 cycles qsort, 553 cycles bsearch
526: I have no idea why glibc is so slow.
1.43 fefe 527: added __isnan (references by libm.a from glibc).
528: added popen() and pclose(). Now the diet libc can link slsh (from
529: S-Lang!)
1.44 fefe 530: corrected usleep. It was more of an msleep until now.
1.45 fefe 531: corrected __dtostr (it looped when trying to format "0.0").
532: several fixes to stdio (thanks to S-Lang's excellent test suite!)
1.46 fefe 533: added ungetc (does it work?)
1.47 fefe 534: added inet_aton (yuck!)
1.50 fefe 535: added gethostbyname, gethostbyaddr, gethostbyname_r and gethostbyaddr_r
1.48 fefe 536: added h_errno and __h_errno_location
537: added inet_ntoa
1.49 fefe 538: added setpgrp and getpgrp, strsignal and execv (thanks, Olaf)
1.51 fefe 539: add bcopy, index, rindex macros
540: add isgraph and isxdigit
1.52 fefe 541: add strftime (ugh!!!)
1.53 olaf 542: Olaf fixed strftime, gmtime_r leap year bug.
1.54 fefe 543: Jeff Garzik contributed a spec file. I put it in contrib and hope
544: everbody knows what to do with it...
545: Olaf checked in a ton of libpthread stuff.
1.55 fefe 546: added mkstemp using /dev/urandom (harder to guess than getpid()).
1.56 fefe 547: add large file backwards compatibility support (so gzip will run on
548: kernel 2.2 and 2.0)
1.57 fefe 549: added shutdown
1.58 fefe 550: added nice
551: added pseudo-locale support for is* (they are now weak aliases,
552: isupper -> __isupper_ascii etc). So, for example, liblatin1 can
553: overwrite the default is* functions.
1.59 fefe 554: added liblatin1.a
1.60 fefe 555: added tzfile implementation (does it work for anyone else?)
1.61 fefe 556: added syslog(3) (thanks to Rene Müller!)
1.62 fefe 557: Jeff Garzik contributed getgr*, getpw* and getsp* in one tiny package.
558: Thanks!
1.63 fefe 559: merged duplicate code in execv and execvp into exec_lib.o
1.34 fefe 560:
1.21 fefe 561: 0.7.2:
562: added several prototypes to already implemented functions and
563: <sys/reboot.h>. Thanks for Abraham for pointing this out.
1.22 fefe 564: added prototypes for process group and dup syscalls. Thanks to
565: Abraham again. He also contributed an implementation for daemon(),
566: an ugly BSD hack. I decided to diversify the lib/ directory a
567: little and now created a libugly/ directory for stuff like system()
568: and daemon() ;-)
569: added libstdio and moved all that stdio crap from lib/ there. The
570: idea is to start separating now what we will separate for shared
571: libraries anyway.
1.26 fefe 572: optimized x86 unified-syscall by Olaf.
1.27 fefe 573: added limits.h, removed __ARCHBITS from endian.h (use __WORDSIZE from
574: limits.h instead)
575: added remove.c and enough cruft to limits.h to make it compile lzo,
576: lzop and bzip2.
1.28 fefe 577: added mktime, asctime_r, asctime and ctime (needed for gzip).
578: Someone will need to implement a reader for the glibc localtime file
1.31 fefe 579: format some day (man tzfile, ugh!) :-(
1.29 fefe 580: added unlink prototype to unistd.h.
581: added gmtime and gmtime_r.
1.31 fefe 582: fixed sparc unified syscall error handling (please upgrade!).
1.30 fefe 583: removed readdir glibc compatibility cruft.
1.31 fefe 584: removed stat glibc compatibility cruft.
1.32 fefe 585: oops, my fread was broken for pipes.
1.33 fefe 586: Olaf found a bug in pipe() for sparc, too.
1.21 fefe 587:
1.9 fefe 588: 0.7.1:
1.11 fefe 589: optimized away the static arrays from __ltostr and __lltostr.
590: optimized away the static arrays (and more!) from strtoul and strtoull.
591: added system (by Olaf).
1.12 fefe 592: added tolower and toupper
1.13 fefe 593: added getopt from Olaf (~600 bytes on x86!)
1.14 fefe 594: added clone for mips (by Olaf).
595: fixed longjmp and setjmp on sparc not to require glibc include files.
1.15 olaf 596: added pause for all (by Olaf).
1.17 fefe 597: added __attribute__ ((__const__)) to ctype.h
1.16 fefe 598: added isupper and islower.
599: added putc and putchar as macros.
1.17 fefe 600: added strcasecmp and strncasecmp (thanks to Abraham vd Merwe for
601: insightful discussions and patches I partially used for the last three)
1.18 fefe 602: added getpriority and setpriority (also by Abraham)
1.19 fefe 603: oops, I broke strtoul in a recent optimization attempt.
1.20 fefe 604: oi, setjmp and longjmp were broken on other platforms, too!
605: Thanks to Sébastien Côté for reporting this.
1.9 fefe 606:
607: 0.7:
1.6 olaf 608: clone support for i386,alpha,arm and sparc by Olaf.
1.1 cvs 609: Initial dynamic loading glue for i386, also by Olaf.
610: We don't have a dynamic loader yet, so this is not yet usable.
611: added readv, sigdelset, sigaltstack, sigfillset, sigismember, usleep,
612: vsprintf, writev, all by Olaf.
1.2 fefe 613: imported readdir fix from Guillaume. Mhh, can the kernel interface
614: really be this broken?
1.3 fefe 615: Found a kludgy way to detect whether the kernel includes define struct
616: stat64 (they also define STAT64_HAS_BROKEN_ST_INO). If this does
617: not work for you, please tell me!
1.4 fefe 618: Removed bogus __seek_types enum, it's a bunch of #defines now.
1.7 fefe 619: Fixed stdio line buffering. The code was already there but I forgot
620: to mark stdio and stdout as line buffered. This should really be
621: done dynamically using isatty, though.
1.8 fefe 622: Removed superfluous "if (1)" in execvp.c
1.1 cvs 623:
624: 0.6.14:
625: *scanf did not append the 0 byte for %s.
626: added creat and changed creat to call open directly instead of open64.
627: did for fread what 0.6.10 did for fwrite.
628: repaired buffered stdio a little (line buffering is still not
629: supported).
630: [All of these bugs have been reported by Guillaume. Thanks!]
631: added __pure__ to strchr and strrchr in <string.h>
632:
633: 0.6.13:
634: included COPYING to make clear that the diet libc is covered by the
635: GNU General Public License (and _not_ the LGPL). That means that
636: you need to obtain a license from me if you want to use the diet
637: libc in a proprietary program that you want to distribute.
638: The x86 unified syscall swapped arguments #4 and #5 and noone
639: noticed until now! Thanks to Guillaume Cottenceau for reporting
640: this!
641: The malloc had a subtle bug with small allocations that could cause
642: segfault. Guillaume reported it, Olaf fixed it.
643:
644: 0.6.12:
645: added assert, statfs and fstatfs
646: added include/net/if.h so fget compiles again.
647:
648: 0.6.11:
649: added putenv.
650:
651: 0.6.10:
652: fixed fwrite. It returned the number of bytes written, not the number
653: of records. Thanks to Albert D. Cahalan for pointing this out.
654: fixed fgets. It returned EOF on empty lines. Thanks, Erik Frey.
655: added brk and sbrk. harold@nb.com.sg made me do it.
656:
657: 0.6.9:
658: fixed execvp not to return on ENOENT
659: did for {open|read|close|seek|tell}dir what I did for stat before.
660: The glibc compatibility part is currently non-functional.
661: fixed white space handling in sscanf " (" would not match " (".
662: fixed printf to accept 'l' flag.
663: fixed getpwuid (ignored last line)
664:
665: 0.6.8:
666: Olaf contributed initial thread-safe syscalls for i386, alpha, sparc,
667: mips and arm. I did the one for ppc. They can be enabled in dietfeatures.h.
668: added strlcpy and strlcat from OpenBSD.
669: added stat64, fstat64 and lstat64.
670: added endian.h and made ending of strlen.c endianness-aware
671: added string routines size tweak to dietfeatures.h. Most of the
672: string routines have been unrolled. This is up to three times as
673: fast but creates up to three times larger code. Now you can disable
674: the unrolling.
675: added sendfile.
676: I also added pread. It works on x86 and sparc but not on ppc and mips.
677: I have no idea what's going on. strace disagrees with the kernel.
678: Can anyone help? I asked the Linux kernel mailing list for help, too.
679: added a few aliases of the type __libc_open for open. nm on
680: libpthreads.so indicates that we will need them.
681:
682: 0.6.7:
683: the sources now compile without warnings with -Wall.
684: printf now prints "(null)" when %s is passed NULL. This can be
685: removed with WANT_NULL_PRINTF in dietfeatures.h
686: added vfprintf, execl, ttyname.
687: stat, lstat and fstat are now #defined to __dietstat, __dietlstat and
688: __dietfstat so they can use the normal kernel struct stat.
689: stat, lstat and fstat are now C wrappers that convert to the glibc
690: struct stat. So we can avoid that overhead for programs that use
691: dietlibc headers.
692:
693: 0.6.6:
694: changed the Makefiles so you can now set CFLAGS on the command line
695: added memccmp (analogous to memccpy) and strncmp.
696: Olaf fixed another bug in the sparc unified syscall.
697: Paul Clifford contributed a C version of his strlen.S that is much
698: more efficient than the previous strlen on all platforms! It also
699: looks like technology from Roswell. ;-}
700: added a "real" stdio. Well, almost. Please contribute!
701: added dietfeatures.h so you can remove features you don't need.
702: removed debug code from vsnprintf that changed \0 to ' ' (argh!).
703: stdio now works with simple programs and minigzip from libz.
704: stdio uses some major trickery to avoid linking the stdio, stderr and
705: stdout (and reserving space for them) when they are not used.
706:
707: 0.6.5:
708: Red Plait <redplait@ixcelerator.com> found several bugs in diet libc,
709: most of them bugs in the new header files, but also missing sigset
710: functions.
711: Paul Clifford contributed an assembly strlen.S for ARM and fixed
712: several bugs.
713: Fixed ppc/setjmp and mips/pipe.
714: Olaf contributed a new sparc unified syscall.
715:
716: 0.6.4:
717: declared is* static inline in getservent.
718: added assert_fail, strtoul, isalpha, isdigit, isalnum, isascii.
719: changed strlen to return 0 when passed NULL.
720: new, much smaller unified syscall for MIPS. Thanks to Olaf the Mad
721: Scientist who actually implemented this without access to a MIPS
722: box, just from reading the architecture manual. And it worked out
723: of the box.
724: started a set of system includes, mainly so that I can use lcc and
725: my alpha-linux cross compiler (which is unable to cross-compile
726: glibc). diet libc can now be compiled without any include files
727: from a normal libc. The includes do declare more than diet libc
728: currently delivers and they are still far from complete for real
729: applications.
730: I will only add assembly versions that are smaller _and_ faster than
731: the C version. Larger routines are only accepted if they are called
732: very often and are substantially faster.
733: added i386 assembly strchr, which is smaller and faster than the old
734: version. It is, however, larger than the version contributed by
735: proton (thanks, anyway).
736: added i386 strlen (31% faster, 14% smaller)
737: "make t" will now create a map file called "mapfile".
738:
739: 0.6.3:
740: added sys_errlist, strerror and perror
741: added isblank
742: added atol
743:
744: 0.6.2:
745: mmap for ARM didn't compile. Thanks, Paul!
746:
747: 0.6.1:
748: split mmap into the architecture specific subdirectories.
749: getenv now copes with environ==NULL, thanks Paul Clifford.
750: Paul also contributed a smaller ARM startup code.
751:
752: 0.6:
753: strcat returned the wrong result. Thanks, Dietz Pröpper.
754: strtod now understands a negative exponent (oops, thanks Bertram Barth)
755: Port to arm-linux-gnu, but on the Netwinder I use for testing the
756: __dtostr does not work (I have no idea why!)
757: The MIPS port now uses (much smaller) non-PIC code. That means that
758: the applications you link against diet libc also have to be compiled
759: non-PIC. I suggest copying the CFLAGS from the diet libc Makefile.
760: Thanks to Ralf Bächle for helping me with this!
761: I made subdirectories for the architectures and use VPATH to override
762: VPATH so that make finds the source file automatically. That should
763: simplify the sources greatly.
764: Olaf Dreesen contributed Alpha support including setjmp and longjmp!
765: ARM and MIPS now also have setjmp and longjmp
766: "compile" and "load" are now make targets. Use them for djb programs.
767: added contrib/elftrunc.c which will remove unnecessary ELF headers.
768: Again, contributed from Olaf. Great work!
769:
770: 0.5.12:
771: printf also does signed numbers.
772: If you don't use atexit, dietlibc now does not link exit, only _exit.
773: *printf now correctly returns the number of bytes written.
774: Olaf contributed experimental sscanf and vsscanf implementations.
775: If passed NULL as buffer, snprintf will not write anything but still
776: return the number of bytes it would have written.
777: Initial MIPS port! (Oh, the agony!)
778: No setjmp and longjmp support yet! Please contribute!
779: I even implemented unified syscalls for MIPS. Still, MIPS code is
780: almost twice the size of SPARC code. If anyone knows why: please
781: tell me!
782:
783: 0.5.11:
784: I implemented new unified syscalls for x86, sparc and ppc, this time based
785: on .s files and not .c files, and I moved the syscalls into
786: subdirectores to clean the dietlibc sources up a little.
787: A binary consisting of printf("%s is %d\n","olaf",23) is now
788: 2864 bytes on sparc
789: 2488 bytes on intel
790: I kludgily implemented fprintf(stdout,... and fprintf(stderr,...
791: to make a few more applications work.
792: Olaf Dreesen also implemented some unified syscall stuff for x86.
793: He discovered that with our unified syscall interface it actually
794: costs <10 bytes total to make all system calls thread safe!
795: I implemented atexit() (can register up to 4 callbacks).
796: I implemented strtod and __dtostr (the opposite). Now we can add
797: floating point support to vsnprintf and sscanf!
798:
799: 0.5.10:
800: I actually saw that I can not only merge the errno handling code of
801: the system calls on x86, I can also merge the rest (including the
802: arguments) except for setting the system call number. All those
803: system calls are now just a jump to a unified system call handler.
804: I got rid of x86openclose again. The savings are substantial:
805: chown from embutils went from 7664 to 7184 bytes!
806: If I'd move the system call wrappers to assembly language, I could
807: even reduce the alignment (does not matter since it's just a jump
808: anyway) and get rid of the "ret" behind each jump (one byte per
809: system call!)
810:
811: 0.5.9:
812: added memchr, strpbrk, strstr, strtol, isspace (hehe)
813: fixed strdup
814: fixed return values for strcpy and strcat (thanks to Norbert Berzen)
815: Olaf Dreesen contributed a strtol and initial {sn|vsn|}printf implementation
816: (no signed integers, only strings and unsigned integers (but
817: supporting octal, hex and decimal). Thanks, Olaf! (by the way:
818: that code must be wonderful, I don't understand it at all *bg*)
819: Olaf's printf does understand padding like in "%08d" and "%8d" and
820: automatically pads pointers with '0'.
821: Rewrote the x86 start code, old: 22 instructions, new: 12 instructions.
822: Thanks to proton for inspiration on this.
823: The new x86 start code also does not reference exit any more, thus saving
824: 64 bytes for executables that don't call exit explicitly.
825: [insert maniacal laughter] EVERY BYTE COUNTS!1!! ;-)
826: Moved errno and environ to start.S, saving no byte binary size but
827: speeding up compilation and slightly shortening dietlibc.a ;-)
828: For x86: joined open and close into one assembler file, sharing the
829: errno handling. This is a feasibility test and it actually saves a
830: few bytes. I think I will reimplement the _syscall[1-6] macros on
831: all platforms now to share the errno handling code for them.
832:
833: 0.5.8:
834: fixed strchr to be able to look for 0.
835:
836: added _llseek, ftruncate, getpgid, getresgid, getresuid, getsid,
837: memccpy, memmove, mprotect, setregid, setresgid, setresuid, setreuid,
838: strncpy, swapon, truncate, strtok, strtok_r, strspn, strcspn (all
839: contributed by Olaf Dreesen)
840:
841: added execvp, getcwd
842:
843: fixed __xmknod
844:
845: Note: can it be that the ftw interface really is so broken that I
846: cannot implement it without having to implement some searching data
847: structure? I included an experimental ftw implementation that will
848: not follow symlinks.
849:
850: 0.5.7:
851: oops, if_nametoindex was broken!
852:
853: 0.5.6:
854: ported to ppc-linux.
855: fixed i386 sigsetjmp (I mistyped the function name)
856: included sigjmp.c
857:
858: 0.5.5:
859: added wait, sys_siglist, longjmp/setjmp/sigsetjmp for i386 and sparc
860: actually, it wasn't fork that wasn't working for sparc, it was pipe.
861: I fixed it now.
862: dietlibc/SPARC assumes -msupersparc (does not provide div, mul, etc)
863: fixed readdir to use getdents and not the intel inline asm
864:
865: 0.5.4:
866: ported to sparclinux (sparc32 only). Beware: does not work yet.
867: added raise, abort, readlink, strcat, geteuid, geteuid, wait3, access
868:
869: 0.5.3:
870: added tcsetattr and getenv to compile e3
871:
872: 0.5.2:
873: added vhangup, tcgetattr, isatty and memcmp for fgetty
874: (http://www.fefe.de/fgetty/)
875: added localtime from uC-libc.
876:
877: 0.5.1:
878: stat and friends actually work now. Yuck! Another case of
879: translation between kernel and userland. Why can't the kernel
880: people and the libc people simply agree on a standard?
881: removed many unnecessary includes to speed up compilation.
882: added -fomit-frame-pointer and i386 compilation target to reduce code size.
883: inlined socketcall to reduce code size.
884: "load" and "compile" are examples for djb code.
885:
886: 0.5:
887: Olaf Dreesen contributed a much smaller implementation of malloc and friends.
888: each object file is now treated with "strip -x -R .note -R .comment"
889: split each system call into a separate object file
890: added ntohs, htons, alarm, if_indextoname and if_nametoindex
891:
892: 0.4.1:
893: oops, the strchr implementation was wrong. Thanks Jens Laas!
894:
895: 0.4:
896: copied opendir and friends from uC-libc.
897: added getservent and getservby* in gerservent.c
898:
899: 0.3:
900: remove readdir system call
901: added getdents system call
902: added getpwnam/getpwuid implementation in getpwnam.c
903: added a few string functions (in str*.c)
