348: there?)
1.284 fefe 349: add truncate64 and ftruncate64 and prototype for truncate (only had ftruncate)
1.450 leitner 350: Michal Ludvig (SuSE) ported the diet libc to the x86_64 architecture (the
1.285 fefe 351: upcoming AMD Hammer chips!). You can't even buy the chips yet and
352: the diet libc already supports it! Amazing ;-)
353: Michal's patch also fixed several of the outstanding warnings. Thanks!
1.286 fefe 354: Andre sent a patch to add ARM profiling. He says it does not work
355: yet, but it's a start.
1.287 fefe 356: added getdents64 backwards compatibility and include it in large file
357: support #defines
1.288 fefe 358: perror now checks if the message is NULL like glibc (Thomas Ogrisegg)

390: adjusted lstat->lstat64 #define to make it work with function pointers
391: move __dietlibc__ #define from features.h to diet
1.267 fefe 392: Thomas Ogrisegg sent x86 memccpy and strncpy routines and introduced
393: an dietfeatures.h #define WANT_FULL_POSIX_COMPAT
1.268 fefe 394: Thomas also sent me profiling support (so far only on x86, but
395: profiling/PORTING describes what needs to be done for other
396: architectures)!
1.272 fefe 397: add contrib/dprof.c, also from Thomas.
1.269 fefe 398: Andreas Krennmair sent a patch to add the BSD regex interface to
399: libcompat
1.271 fefe 400: Andre noticed that __dtostr never sets first to false. Oops!
1.274 fefe 401: Andre has provided a largely untested patch that seems to fix the problem.
1.275 fefe 402: Igor Gilitschenski sent a patch for the "%8.7lx" issue.
1.276 fefe 403: abort did not flush all stdio streams
1.277 fefe 404: fix some nasty regular expression bugs
405: write a stupid malloc checker (contrib/debug-realloc.c) to help me
406: debug my regular expressions. Please read contrib/debug-realloc.txt
1.278 fefe 407: our i386 memchr,memcmp were broken for the count=0 case
1.279 fefe 408: fix DNS domain search
1.280 fefe 409: i386 memccpy exchanged esi and edi :-( I should do more checks before
410: accepting external code...
1.264 fefe 411:
1.244 fefe 412: 0.16:
413: "diet -v" or "diet -Os" segfaulted without further arguments.
1.246 fefe 414: Andre found two very embarassing bugs in my four lines of md5 glue.
415: I need to get more sleep.
1.247 fefe 416: Thanks Ogrisegg found that ptrace does not work as documented and
417: provided a wrapper that emulates the glibc behaviour.
1.248 fefe 418: Dirk Engling saved 8 bytes and 4 cycles in the ARM clone()
419: fix ptrace.h for S/390 and ARM
420: provide a PORTING document so we don't lose track of which file need
421: to be touched to port the diet libc to a new platform.
1.249 fefe 422: remove a few warnings
423: provide a prototype for usleep.
1.250 fefe 424: make __dtostr work on ARM by using long instead of long long.
425: Idea by Dirk Engling.
1.251 fefe 426: fix an argument counting bug in *scanf (Thomas Ogrisegg)
1.252 fefe 427: Forgot an #endif in asm/sigcontext.h (Mike Castle)
1.253 fefe 428: Kurt Garloff sent in patches to
429: fix struct termios on non-x86 architectures
1.254 fefe 430: printf("%+05d\n",500) was broken (Raimar Falke told me, Olaf fixed it)
431: create libcompat.a (and move daemon to it)
1.255 fefe 432: add getdelim and getline
433: *printf now recognize 'z' integer flag (and ignore it)
1.256 olaf 434: Dirk Engling provided a strcpy.S for ARM.
1.257 olaf 435: Olaf: fixed *scanf familie. It hadn't wored with "long long".
1.258 fefe 436: Hans Lermen fixed i386/getenv.S
1.259 fefe 437: diet -Os no longer discards -fpic and -fno-pic
1.260 fefe 438: fix i386 rand/random to use correct RAND_MAX (thanks, Jaroslav
439: Macodiseas)

1.244 fefe 443:
1.224 fefe 444: 0.15:
1.225 fefe 445: vfork sucks. I reverted to the old behavior where vfork==fork.
1.226 fefe 446: fix bsearch (and remove i386 assembly bsearch, needs to be redone).
1.227 fefe 447: Thanks Ogrisegg sent a patch to make the PA-RISC unified syscall
448: thread-safe!
1.228 fefe 449: remove vfork and add alarm to dynamic syscalls.
450: fix diet-dyn to link in dyn_dstop.o and not dyn_stop.o.
1.229 fefe 451: The MD5 code generated unaligned accesses when passed an unaligned
452: pointer on little endian ARM and MIPS.
453: MIPS unified syscall didn't compile anymore.
454: Put up new mipsel target to cross compile for little endian mips.
455: The mips target will again explicitly set endianness to big endian.
456: Compiling natively on a MIPS box should not touch the endianness.
1.230 fefe 457: Duh, when we removed return0, we broke tzset when the time zone parser
458: was disabled. Uwe Ohse noticed this. Thanks!
459: Fix gethostbyname to match host names case insensitively in /etc/hosts.
460: Oops, this was reported 6 weeks ago but I overlooked the email.
461: Thanks, Denis Rachal!
1.231 fefe 462: vsnprintf's zero termination was broken.
1.233 fefe 463: Uwe Ohse found a few more bugs:
464: Remove WANT_BUGGY_GLIBC_STRSEP. The Linux man page is broken, glibc
465: does it correctly.
466: Make inet_aton use strtoul instead of strtol
467: fdopen would close the file descriptor if it could not malloc the
468: buffer.
469: strftime updates.
470: Make _FILE_OFFSET_BITS includes -Wundef clean
471: Andre found a typo in endian.h for big endian mips
1.234 fefe 472: Ryan told me that fmod was not included in libm. Oops.
1.235 fefe 473: strstr(whatever,"") returned NULL, not whatever. Found by a new test
474: suite entry for strstr that I wrote.
1.245 fefe 475: Thomas Ogrisegg suggested or sent patches for the following:
1.236 fefe 476: add <asm/sigcontext.h> for profiling support.
477: make strncpy a #define in string.h to save a few bytes.
1.241 fefe 478: an i386 assembler getenv implementation (roughly half the size)
479: add grantpt, ptsname, unlockpt
1.236 fefe 480: add a getenv test suite entry.
1.238 fefe 481: Andre contributed an ARM assembler md5 implementation and he fixed mmap
482: on ARM.
483: add glibc macro names in sys/reboot.h. Mentioned by Laurent G. Bercot
1.239 fefe 484: getservent_r did not parse lines without aliases. Thanks, Jaroslav
485: Macodiseas!
1.240 fefe 486: fix MIPS start code (argv[0] was always corrupt)
1.241 fefe 487: removed annoying -Wconversion gcc switch
1.242 fefe 488: add -v to diet.c and fix MIPS CFLAGS in diet. Thanks, Johannes Stezenbach
1.243 fefe 489: Kurt Garloff sent these diffs:
490: add fdatasync (and make it a pthread cancellation point)
491: numerous alpha issues, like using .quad instead of .long for
492: offsets, change strip to -strip in Makefile (so a failing strip does
493: not abort the make), try to be more friendly to the gcc 2.96 that
494: SuSE 7.1 AXP ships with.
1.224 fefe 495:
1.209 fefe 496: 0.14:
1.224 fefe 497: fix brk again (missing __brk, trivial oversight)
1.210 fefe 498: a new i386/atol.S that is 4 bytes smaller (and faster, too!). Thanks,
499: Thomas Ogrisegg!
1.211 fefe 500: Thomas also contributed a PA-RISC port including testandset, so
501: libpthread will work once we implement clone! Great work, Thomas.
1.212 fefe 502: made the fake locale more believable.
503: If you need gettext, use http://www.ca.postgresql.org/~petere/gettext.html
1.213 fefe 504: moved _exit into the unified syscall on x86.
1.214 fefe 505: Uwe Ohse found many more bugs:
506: getpass EINTR handling, ttyname, sysconf_cpus with SLASH_PROC_OK,
507: liblatin1 was more or less completely broken if you gave it chars as
508: arguments, not ints (signedness). execvp had a buffer overflow in
509: case a PATH element exceeded PATH_MAX, but it's not a security
510: problem since setuid programs need to set their path to some known
511: value anyway.
1.219 fefe 512: hasmntopt did not work with foo=bar style options
1.217 fefe 513: Uwe also improved ftw's stack usage.
1.214 fefe 514: Put movl instead of popl rationale in comment in i386/unified.S since
515: three people have suggested saving a few bytes with popl now ;)
1.215 fefe 516: I discovered __attribute__((malloc)) and started using it. For gcc 3,
517: it improves the optimizer when functions return malloced pointers.
1.216 fefe 518: Steven Rostedt pointed out that my setvbuf was broken with regard to
519: size==0 and sent a patch to fix it.
1.218 fefe 520: Thomas Ogrisegg made setenv smaller.
1.220 olaf 521: Olaf: implemented the parisc clone and an atomic testandset, modified the
522: libpthread to respect the parisc UPgrowing stack. still non functional,
523: because the unified syscall uses errno :(
1.221 fefe 524: tcgetospeed read from the wrong termios field. Thanks, Gunnar Ritter!
1.222 fefe 525: Fixed asprintf (relied on vsnprintf(NULL,...) to return length but
526: don't write anything which was no longer the case. It also
527: allocated one byte unnecessarily, which Uwe Ohse found.
1.223 fefe 528: Fix ttyname (readlink does not \0-terminate, forgot to do that).
1.209 fefe 529:
1.193 fefe 530: 0.13:
1.194 fefe 531: add readdir64 and automatic mapping if _FILE_OFFSET_BITS == 64
1.199 fefe 532: make diet not include the linker safeguard stuff when preprocessing
1.207 fefe 533: Olaf: port to S/390!
1.463 leitner 534: fix vfork (it was put into dietlibc.a twice)
1.197 leitner 535: res_query did not initialize last
1.199 fefe 536: diet (not diet-dyn, of course) now adds -static to the gcc command line
1.198 leitner 537: fixed fflush on input streams (tic from ncurses exposed this)
1.199 fefe 538: duh, there is an alarm system call, too, so we use it and not setitimer
1.200 fefe 539: fix comparison in gmtime_r that caused Jan 1 to be converted to Dec 32.
1.201 fefe 540: rewrote __dtostr (it also has one more argument now)
1.205 fefe 541: Thanks to Erik Troan for bringing these to my attention:
1.204 fefe 542: make putenv behave like glibc (putenv("HOME") == unsetenv("HOME"))
543: fix strncat for the case where n == 0 (security implications?)
544: fix bsearch (it didn't find the very last element in the array, same
545: bug in both the C and the i386 assembly version).
1.205 fefe 546: fixed FNM_PATHNAME in fnmatch
1.204 fefe 547: fix brk (the syscall was documented incorrectly in the Linux man page)
548: Thanks, Thomas Ogrisegg!
1.205 fefe 549: added negated character classes to fnmatch (not required by POSIX)
1.206 fefe 550: make the utmp routines open utmp read-only if read-write doesn't work.
1.208 fefe 551: remove syscalls.c directory, it is obsolete now with unified syscalls
1.193 fefe 552:
1.164 fefe 553: 0.12:
554: more contributions from Frank Klemm.
1.165 fefe 555: iconv can now do UCS-2, too.
1.167 fefe 556: Imported several x86 assembly routines from Wouter van Kleunen.
1.166 fefe 557: Lots of bug fixes, and several more i386 specific versions of common
558: routines to make them smaller.
1.168 fefe 559: add memmem (a GNU extension that looks useful)
1.170 fefe 560: several changes from Michal Ludvig: inttypes.h gets C99 macros,
1.168 fefe 561: add pivot_root syscall, %n for *scanf.
1.169 fefe 562: add adjtimex (thanks, Laurent BERCOT)
1.171 fefe 563: add Frank Klemm's optimized md5
1.172 fefe 564: add -Os option to diet (see diet.1).
1.173 fefe 565: several IPv6 constants and HZ were missing, thanks Johannes Kloos.
1.174 fefe 566: add 32-bit uid/gid syscalls.
1.175 fefe 567: add rand48 (thanks, Johannes Kloos)
1.176 fefe 568: fixed a lot of bugs in getopt* (thanks, Johannes)
1.177 fefe 569: add strxfrm and tweak limits.h. glib-1.3.8 now compiles without changes.
570: add a few more module syscalls. modutils-2.4.9 now compiles without changes.
571: fix gethostent alias list termination. Major oops.
1.178 fefe 572: add execle and two DNS constants (from Johannes Kloos).
1.179 fefe 573: opendir did not close-on-exec (thanks, Laurent Bercot).
1.180 fefe 574: DNS will now properly signal errors and set h_errno.
575: A few more cleanups (thanks, Andreas Jabs and Matthias Andree).
1.181 fefe 576: Added an uber-cool linker safeguard feature! Idea by Matthias Andree.
577: If you enable WANT_SAFEGUARD in dietfeatures.h, diet will include an
578: external reference to a symbol that is only in the diet libc. So,
579: when you accidentally link a diet libc compiled object file against
580: glibc, the linker will barf. This will bloat your object files, but
581: you can remove all the references with "strip -R .note" from
582: the binaries in the end (which you should do anyway).
1.182 fefe 583: fix ARM unified syscall (select did not work).
1.183 fefe 584: add getpwent_r ala glibc and replace getpwent
585: do the same for getgrent and getspent
586: remove entlib (new code is smaller)
1.184 fefe 587: rewrite getserv* to use parselib (and provide ..._r, too)
1.185 fefe 588: add getpwnam_r and getpwuid_r
1.186 fefe 589: rewrite getproto* to use parselib (and protive ..._r, too)
1.187 fefe 590: Olaf muddled with the dynamic linker. It's a clean-room
591: implementation in the sense that it once worked for Olaf in a clean
592: room ;)
1.188 fefe 593: add if_nameindex and if_freenameindex.
594: fixed arm unified syscalls to work with current binutils (; is no
595: longer a line separator but starts a comment, switched to .macro)
1.189 fefe 596: changed all st_[cma]time types to signed long so comparisons against
597: LONG_MIN will work correctly. (GNU tar does this)
1.190 fefe 598: fixed two bugs regarding ungetc.
599: add getusershell, setusershell, endusershell (for vs_ftpd)
600: add prctl, dirfd (also for vs_ftpd)
1.191 fefe 601: fixed strftime (was completely hosed)
1.192 fefe 602: added real make install target
1.164 fefe 603:
1.115 fefe 604: 0.11:
605: fix major oops in DNS routines (only with WANT_FULL_RESOLV_CONF enabled).
1.116 fefe 606: fix vsscanf bug (Thanks, David Chappell).
1.117 fefe 607: add floor, ceil and memchr prototypes.
608: add __builtin_expect and expect #defines for gcc versions below 3.0
1.118 fefe 609: cleaner errno vs __errno_location handling
610: add placeholder iconv (iconv_open will always return EINVAL)
611: try to remove kernel 2.4 header dependency in IPv6 sockaddr_in6
612: initialization of getaddrinfo.
1.119 fefe 613: fix vsnprintf %X (printed lower case)
1.120 fefe 614: I wrote a new getopt. It appears to actually work (it is POSIX
615: compliant, it does not sort argv like the GNU version) and is only
616: a little over 300 bytes on x86.
1.121 fefe 617: Guillaume Cottenceau just wrote me that strncat should be even more
618: broken than it already is: it should append n bytes AND THEN \0!
1.463 leitner 619: I wonder how many programmers have produced off-by-one errors here...
1.122 fefe 620: Fix regexec offset return. autoconf now believes that diet libc has
621: POSIX regular expressions.
1.123 fefe 622: Fix fnmatch (a/b/* matched a/b/c/d even if FNM_PATHNAME was set)
1.124 fefe 623: Fix regular expression match for x* when there is no x at all.
1.125 fefe 624: Fix memory leak in error case in gethostbyname(2|). Thanks, Dietz Pröpper.
1.126 fefe 625: Add %h to vsnprintf.
1.127 fefe 626: Add FAQ.
1.128 fefe 627: Make %h work for signed numbers and add %hh to vsnprintf.
628: initgroups ignored the group argument :-(
629: remove printf references and nested functions from glob.
1.129 fefe 630: added an errno in libpthread that will display a prominent linker
631: warning.
1.131 fefe 632: started getting rid of kernel headers. Big task! :-(
1.130 fefe 633: add res_mkquery. The diet libc can now compile and link mtr.
1.132 olaf 634: Olaf: added a lot of code in libdl (not yet complete), changed the
635: startup code to make it work with his libdl and ld.so (needs still work
636: too)
1.134 fefe 637: __dns_readstartfiles only took the first domain or search path.
638: Thanks, Anthony de Boer
1.133 olaf 639: Olaf: added clone and a new unified_syscall for PowerPC
640: also dynlinker is now available (i386 only at this time)
1.135 fefe 641: crufted together a stdarg.h implementation from the various gcc headers.
1.136 fefe 642: implement getopt_long (ugh, the GNU people need professional help)
1.137 fefe 643: fixed word delimiters in regex (they looked for space, i.e. "," did
644: not work as delimiter)
1.138 fefe 645: errno.h now declares sys_errlist and sys_nerr.
1.143 fefe 646: added mkdtemp.
1.142 fefe 647: Uwe Ohse reported all of the following bugs:
648: ttyname should return 0 if !isatty.
649: realpath returns NULL if "." cannot be opened
650: putenv erroneously accepted (and mishandled) entries without "=".
651: popen returned 255 instead of 127 if /bin/sh could not be run.
652: fgetc did not set the internal EOF indicator on EOF.
653: bsearch contained an assumption about integer arithmetic overflow
654: behavior.
655: system did not set SIGCHLD and thus contained a race.
656: popen did not set close-on-exec and could leak an fd on malloc error.
1.147 fefe 657: daemon did not check whether open returns an fd below 3
658: perror did not save errno.
1.144 olaf 659: Olaf: Peter Jones reported some problems with perror; strerror had the
660: same problem.
661: Peter also posted a patch to atexit/exit. With some modifications it is
662: now implemented.
1.145 fefe 663: Unbuffered stdio and ungetc can no longer be disabled. I will try to
664: implement part of it using ELF weak symbols.
1.146 fefe 665: Added minimal sysconf (tehe) from David Chappell.
1.148 fefe 666: Added overflow handling for strtoul and strtol.
1.149 fefe 667: Added WANT_ETC_HOSTS in dietfeatures.h and made gethostbyname/2 use
668: it before falling back to DNS if enabled.
1.150 fefe 669: Added a littie backwards compatibility cruft for gpm (man, do these
670: sources stink!)
1.151 fefe 671: Added openpty.
1.152 fefe 672: Squeeze a few bytes off the is* routines, courtesy of Peter Jones.
1.154 fefe 673: Fix fseek return value.
1.155 fefe 674: Add dirname and basename.
1.156 fefe 675: Add a few i386 math routines contributed by Frank Klemm.
1.157 fefe 676: Fixed getservent (did not allow _ and - in the aliases).
677: Thanks, Oden Eriksson
1.158 fefe 678: Added a float.h so configure believes we have ANSI header files.
679: Fix a lot more stdio bugs that Uwe Ohse pointed out.
1.162 fefe 680: Olaf: has added a new scanf and printf core that is suitable for all
1.159 olaf 681: scanf and printf function implementations
1.160 fefe 682: Imported a few more functions and optimizations from Frank Klemm (he
683: also rewrote dtostr to have more precision)
1.161 olaf 684: Olaf: checked in a new sig* function family (based on rt_sig*).
685: legacy <2.2 signal-handling doesn't work at the moment.
1.163 fefe 686: Made rudimentary iconv that can convert back and forth between
687: iso-8859-1, utf-8 and ucs-4 (for debugging).
688: Thanks to Markus Kuhn for the excellent utf-8(7)!
1.115 fefe 689:
1.74 fefe 690: 0.10:
691: update getpagesize.
692: add personality.
1.75 fefe 693: add "%*s" and "%*.*s" support to vsnprintf.
1.76 fefe 694: add putchar (apparently arm-linux-gcc will substitute printf("\n")
695: with putchar('\n') behind your back...?!
1.77 fefe 696: import include/scsi/ from glibc.
1.78 fefe 697: add iopl.
1.80 fefe 698: add execl and sigdelset prototypes.
699: add getopt_long stuff to getopt.h (may compile but won't link).
1.81 fefe 700: add RPC headers (no code yet).
1.82 fefe 701: add mlockall, munlockall
1.83 fefe 702: make "diet gcc foo.c" work.
703: added Sun RPC code and removed as many warnings as possible in a
704: heroic act of self-mutilation.
705: added getproto* and getdtablesize for the RPC cruft :-(
1.84 fefe 706: added getpass. mount from util-linux actually compiles now!
707: fix the sig*set routines. mount actually works now *bg*
708: fix fwrite dividing by zero when trying to fwrite n records of size 0.
1.85 fefe 709: added an initial regex implementation (3500 bytes!!!).
1.87 fefe 710: add llseek and lseek64 with optional lseek fall-back.
1.88 fefe 711: add res_init.
712: add asprintf (ugh, what an ugly function).
1.89 fefe 713: expanded arpa/nameser.h to include backwards compatibility defines
1.90 fefe 714: add ut_name alias to ut_host in struct utmp.
715: add inet_ntop, inet_pton, gethostbyname2.
1.92 fefe 716: add sysinfo, recvmsg, sendmsg.
1.93 fefe 717: add endmntent, getmntent, setmntent.
1.94 fefe 718: fix fnmatch (thanks, Guillaume Cottenceau!)
1.96 fefe 719: add setenv.
720: remove __restrict from mntent.h, add __restrict__ removal alias for
721: older gcc versions in sys/cdefs.h.
722: add rlim_t, sig_atomic_t declarations.
723: add sigsetjmp #define for __sigsetjmp (oops).
724: (Thanks to Chris Siebenmann for these three bug reports)
1.97 fefe 725: add a gruesome hack to printf floating point to accept %f and kludge
726: together support for %.2f. Don't look at the code, please!
1.98 fefe 727: fixed tcsetpgrp (oops, this is embarassing! Thanks, Chris Siebenmann)
1.99 fefe 728: imported fix for entlib by Jeff Garzik.
1.100 fefe 729: add glob implementation from Guillaume Cottenceau (Thanks!!)
730: add libdl fragments from Olaf (Yeah! One step closer to dynamic linking!)
1.101 fefe 731: add REG_ICASE and word start/end handling to my regular expressions.
732: my regular expressions now actually match substrings (i.e. "foobar" to "bar").
1.102 fefe 733: wrap getcwd to comply to man page (the syscall returns the number of
734: bytes, not the buffer)
735: add realpath.
1.103 fefe 736: fix vfprintf.
1.104 fefe 737: fix *scanf %s zero termination.
738: add abs, labs, llabs.
1.105 fefe 739: add <sys/io.h>, ioperm syscall.
740: add flock to <sys/file.h>
1.106 fefe 741: fixes to bsearch and the regular expressions.
1.107 fefe 742: add fake herror.
1.108 fefe 743: add scandir and alphasort.
1.109 fefe 744: add killpg
1.110 fefe 745: implemented a gross hack to make libpthread compile when
746: dietfeatures.h does not define WANT_THREAD_SAFE (it's empty then).
1.111 fefe 747: add getaddrinfo and freeaddrinfo (man, what a fucked up interface!)
1.112 fefe 748: fix sigsuspend (syscall had completely fscked up arguments!)
1.113 fefe 749: RLIM_INFINITY from the kernel is broken. Thanks to Chris Siebenmann
750: for sending a patch.
1.114 fefe 751: add getserv*.
752: add WANT_FULL_RESOLV_CONF so that the DNS routines use "domain" and
753: "search" from resolv.conf.
1.74 fefe 754:
1.73 fefe 755: 0.9:
1.65 fefe 756: fixed initgroups (oops)
1.66 fefe 757: Cleanup appending file open for stdio (thanks, James Antill)
758: imported vfprintf fix from James Antill.
1.67 fefe 759: add fnmatch
760: change index, rindex and bcmp as weak ELF symbols (were #defined before)
1.68 fefe 761: Olaf added character classes to *scanf.
1.69 fefe 762: Put object and library files into a separate directory (bin-$ARCH).
763: Add "cross" make target to make all architectures.
764: Add "diet" program and man page.
1.70 fefe 765: Add getgrnam, getgrgid
1.71 fefe 766: Add cfmakeraw (Thanks, Antonio Musumeci)
1.72 fefe 767: localtime won't call gettimeofday when the tzfile parser is used.
1.65 fefe 768:
1.64 fefe 769: 0.8:
1.34 fefe 770: vsnprintf(0,...) estimated the length of strings with a padding width
771: incorrectly.
1.35 fefe 772: new reboot() from Olaf.
1.36 fefe 773: added prototypes for getsockopt and setsockopt.
1.39 fefe 774: added experimental sem* and shm*
1.38 fefe 775: define EXIT_SUCCESS and EXIT_FAILURE
1.40 fefe 776: added setvbuf (only changes mode, not buffer)
1.41 fefe 777: added dietwarning.h (woohoo, linker warnings!) and used it to warn of
778: insecurity (system, sprintf) or bloat (printf and stdio).
1.42 fefe 779: added qsort() and bsearch(). Benchmark on 1000 random ints:
780: glibc: 679414 cycles qsort and 3352 cycles bsearch
781: diet libc: 300010 cycles qsort, 553 cycles bsearch
782: I have no idea why glibc is so slow.
1.43 fefe 783: added __isnan (references by libm.a from glibc).
784: added popen() and pclose(). Now the diet libc can link slsh (from
785: S-Lang!)
1.44 fefe 786: corrected usleep. It was more of an msleep until now.
1.45 fefe 787: corrected __dtostr (it looped when trying to format "0.0").
788: several fixes to stdio (thanks to S-Lang's excellent test suite!)
1.46 fefe 789: added ungetc (does it work?)
1.47 fefe 790: added inet_aton (yuck!)
1.50 fefe 791: added gethostbyname, gethostbyaddr, gethostbyname_r and gethostbyaddr_r
1.48 fefe 792: added h_errno and __h_errno_location
793: added inet_ntoa
1.49 fefe 794: added setpgrp and getpgrp, strsignal and execv (thanks, Olaf)
1.51 fefe 795: add bcopy, index, rindex macros
796: add isgraph and isxdigit
1.52 fefe 797: add strftime (ugh!!!)
1.53 olaf 798: Olaf fixed strftime, gmtime_r leap year bug.
1.54 fefe 799: Jeff Garzik contributed a spec file. I put it in contrib and hope
800: everbody knows what to do with it...
801: Olaf checked in a ton of libpthread stuff.
1.55 fefe 802: added mkstemp using /dev/urandom (harder to guess than getpid()).
1.56 fefe 803: add large file backwards compatibility support (so gzip will run on
804: kernel 2.2 and 2.0)
1.57 fefe 805: added shutdown
1.58 fefe 806: added nice
807: added pseudo-locale support for is* (they are now weak aliases,
808: isupper -> __isupper_ascii etc). So, for example, liblatin1 can
809: overwrite the default is* functions.
1.59 fefe 810: added liblatin1.a
1.60 fefe 811: added tzfile implementation (does it work for anyone else?)
1.61 fefe 812: added syslog(3) (thanks to Rene Müller!)
1.62 fefe 813: Jeff Garzik contributed getgr*, getpw* and getsp* in one tiny package.
814: Thanks!
1.63 fefe 815: merged duplicate code in execv and execvp into exec_lib.o
1.34 fefe 816:
1.21 fefe 817: 0.7.2:
818: added several prototypes to already implemented functions and
819: <sys/reboot.h>. Thanks for Abraham for pointing this out.
1.22 fefe 820: added prototypes for process group and dup syscalls. Thanks to
821: Abraham again. He also contributed an implementation for daemon(),
822: an ugly BSD hack. I decided to diversify the lib/ directory a
823: little and now created a libugly/ directory for stuff like system()
824: and daemon() ;-)
825: added libstdio and moved all that stdio crap from lib/ there. The
826: idea is to start separating now what we will separate for shared
827: libraries anyway.
1.26 fefe 828: optimized x86 unified-syscall by Olaf.
1.27 fefe 829: added limits.h, removed __ARCHBITS from endian.h (use __WORDSIZE from
830: limits.h instead)
831: added remove.c and enough cruft to limits.h to make it compile lzo,
832: lzop and bzip2.
1.28 fefe 833: added mktime, asctime_r, asctime and ctime (needed for gzip).
834: Someone will need to implement a reader for the glibc localtime file
1.31 fefe 835: format some day (man tzfile, ugh!) :-(
1.29 fefe 836: added unlink prototype to unistd.h.
837: added gmtime and gmtime_r.
1.31 fefe 838: fixed sparc unified syscall error handling (please upgrade!).
1.30 fefe 839: removed readdir glibc compatibility cruft.
1.31 fefe 840: removed stat glibc compatibility cruft.
1.32 fefe 841: oops, my fread was broken for pipes.
1.33 fefe 842: Olaf found a bug in pipe() for sparc, too.
1.21 fefe 843:
1.9 fefe 844: 0.7.1:
1.11 fefe 845: optimized away the static arrays from __ltostr and __lltostr.
846: optimized away the static arrays (and more!) from strtoul and strtoull.
847: added system (by Olaf).
1.12 fefe 848: added tolower and toupper
1.13 fefe 849: added getopt from Olaf (~600 bytes on x86!)
1.14 fefe 850: added clone for mips (by Olaf).
851: fixed longjmp and setjmp on sparc not to require glibc include files.
1.15 olaf 852: added pause for all (by Olaf).
1.17 fefe 853: added __attribute__ ((__const__)) to ctype.h
1.16 fefe 854: added isupper and islower.
855: added putc and putchar as macros.
1.17 fefe 856: added strcasecmp and strncasecmp (thanks to Abraham vd Merwe for
857: insightful discussions and patches I partially used for the last three)
1.18 fefe 858: added getpriority and setpriority (also by Abraham)
1.19 fefe 859: oops, I broke strtoul in a recent optimization attempt.
1.20 fefe 860: oi, setjmp and longjmp were broken on other platforms, too!
861: Thanks to Sébastien Côté for reporting this.
1.9 fefe 862:
863: 0.7:
1.6 olaf 864: clone support for i386,alpha,arm and sparc by Olaf.
1.1 cvs 865: Initial dynamic loading glue for i386, also by Olaf.
866: We don't have a dynamic loader yet, so this is not yet usable.
867: added readv, sigdelset, sigaltstack, sigfillset, sigismember, usleep,
868: vsprintf, writev, all by Olaf.
1.2 fefe 869: imported readdir fix from Guillaume. Mhh, can the kernel interface
870: really be this broken?
1.3 fefe 871: Found a kludgy way to detect whether the kernel includes define struct
872: stat64 (they also define STAT64_HAS_BROKEN_ST_INO). If this does
873: not work for you, please tell me!
1.4 fefe 874: Removed bogus __seek_types enum, it's a bunch of #defines now.
1.7 fefe 875: Fixed stdio line buffering. The code was already there but I forgot
876: to mark stdio and stdout as line buffered. This should really be
877: done dynamically using isatty, though.
1.8 fefe 878: Removed superfluous "if (1)" in execvp.c
1.1 cvs 879:
880: 0.6.14:
881: *scanf did not append the 0 byte for %s.
882: added creat and changed creat to call open directly instead of open64.
883: did for fread what 0.6.10 did for fwrite.
884: repaired buffered stdio a little (line buffering is still not
885: supported).
886: [All of these bugs have been reported by Guillaume. Thanks!]
887: added __pure__ to strchr and strrchr in <string.h>
888:
889: 0.6.13:
890: included COPYING to make clear that the diet libc is covered by the
891: GNU General Public License (and _not_ the LGPL). That means that
892: you need to obtain a license from me if you want to use the diet
893: libc in a proprietary program that you want to distribute.
894: The x86 unified syscall swapped arguments #4 and #5 and noone
895: noticed until now! Thanks to Guillaume Cottenceau for reporting
896: this!
897: The malloc had a subtle bug with small allocations that could cause
898: segfault. Guillaume reported it, Olaf fixed it.
899:
900: 0.6.12:
901: added assert, statfs and fstatfs
902: added include/net/if.h so fget compiles again.
903:
904: 0.6.11:
905: added putenv.
906:
907: 0.6.10:
908: fixed fwrite. It returned the number of bytes written, not the number
909: of records. Thanks to Albert D. Cahalan for pointing this out.
910: fixed fgets. It returned EOF on empty lines. Thanks, Erik Frey.
911: added brk and sbrk. harold@nb.com.sg made me do it.
912:
913: 0.6.9:
914: fixed execvp not to return on ENOENT
915: did for {open|read|close|seek|tell}dir what I did for stat before.
916: The glibc compatibility part is currently non-functional.
917: fixed white space handling in sscanf " (" would not match " (".
918: fixed printf to accept 'l' flag.
919: fixed getpwuid (ignored last line)
920:
921: 0.6.8:
922: Olaf contributed initial thread-safe syscalls for i386, alpha, sparc,
923: mips and arm. I did the one for ppc. They can be enabled in dietfeatures.h.
924: added strlcpy and strlcat from OpenBSD.
925: added stat64, fstat64 and lstat64.
926: added endian.h and made ending of strlen.c endianness-aware
927: added string routines size tweak to dietfeatures.h. Most of the
928: string routines have been unrolled. This is up to three times as
929: fast but creates up to three times larger code. Now you can disable
930: the unrolling.
931: added sendfile.
932: I also added pread. It works on x86 and sparc but not on ppc and mips.
933: I have no idea what's going on. strace disagrees with the kernel.
934: Can anyone help? I asked the Linux kernel mailing list for help, too.
935: added a few aliases of the type __libc_open for open. nm on
936: libpthreads.so indicates that we will need them.
937:
938: 0.6.7:
939: the sources now compile without warnings with -Wall.
940: printf now prints "(null)" when %s is passed NULL. This can be
941: removed with WANT_NULL_PRINTF in dietfeatures.h
942: added vfprintf, execl, ttyname.
943: stat, lstat and fstat are now #defined to __dietstat, __dietlstat and
944: __dietfstat so they can use the normal kernel struct stat.
945: stat, lstat and fstat are now C wrappers that convert to the glibc
946: struct stat. So we can avoid that overhead for programs that use
947: dietlibc headers.
948:
949: 0.6.6:
950: changed the Makefiles so you can now set CFLAGS on the command line
951: added memccmp (analogous to memccpy) and strncmp.
952: Olaf fixed another bug in the sparc unified syscall.
953: Paul Clifford contributed a C version of his strlen.S that is much
954: more efficient than the previous strlen on all platforms! It also
955: looks like technology from Roswell. ;-}
956: added a "real" stdio. Well, almost. Please contribute!
957: added dietfeatures.h so you can remove features you don't need.
958: removed debug code from vsnprintf that changed \0 to ' ' (argh!).
959: stdio now works with simple programs and minigzip from libz.
960: stdio uses some major trickery to avoid linking the stdio, stderr and
961: stdout (and reserving space for them) when they are not used.
962:
963: 0.6.5:
964: Red Plait <redplait@ixcelerator.com> found several bugs in diet libc,
965: most of them bugs in the new header files, but also missing sigset
966: functions.
967: Paul Clifford contributed an assembly strlen.S for ARM and fixed
968: several bugs.
969: Fixed ppc/setjmp and mips/pipe.
970: Olaf contributed a new sparc unified syscall.
971:
972: 0.6.4:
973: declared is* static inline in getservent.
974: added assert_fail, strtoul, isalpha, isdigit, isalnum, isascii.
975: changed strlen to return 0 when passed NULL.
976: new, much smaller unified syscall for MIPS. Thanks to Olaf the Mad
977: Scientist who actually implemented this without access to a MIPS
978: box, just from reading the architecture manual. And it worked out
979: of the box.
980: started a set of system includes, mainly so that I can use lcc and
981: my alpha-linux cross compiler (which is unable to cross-compile
982: glibc). diet libc can now be compiled without any include files
983: from a normal libc. The includes do declare more than diet libc
984: currently delivers and they are still far from complete for real
985: applications.
986: I will only add assembly versions that are smaller _and_ faster than
987: the C version. Larger routines are only accepted if they are called
988: very often and are substantially faster.
989: added i386 assembly strchr, which is smaller and faster than the old
990: version. It is, however, larger than the version contributed by
991: proton (thanks, anyway).
992: added i386 strlen (31% faster, 14% smaller)
993: "make t" will now create a map file called "mapfile".
994:
995: 0.6.3:
996: added sys_errlist, strerror and perror
997: added isblank
998: added atol
999:
1000: 0.6.2:
1001: mmap for ARM didn't compile. Thanks, Paul!
1002:
1003: 0.6.1:
1004: split mmap into the architecture specific subdirectories.
1005: getenv now copes with environ==NULL, thanks Paul Clifford.
1006: Paul also contributed a smaller ARM startup code.
1007:
1008: 0.6:
1009: strcat returned the wrong result. Thanks, Dietz Pröpper.
1010: strtod now understands a negative exponent (oops, thanks Bertram Barth)
1011: Port to arm-linux-gnu, but on the Netwinder I use for testing the
1012: __dtostr does not work (I have no idea why!)
1013: The MIPS port now uses (much smaller) non-PIC code. That means that
1014: the applications you link against diet libc also have to be compiled
1015: non-PIC. I suggest copying the CFLAGS from the diet libc Makefile.
1016: Thanks to Ralf Bächle for helping me with this!
1017: I made subdirectories for the architectures and use VPATH to override
1018: VPATH so that make finds the source file automatically. That should
1019: simplify the sources greatly.
1020: Olaf Dreesen contributed Alpha support including setjmp and longjmp!
1021: ARM and MIPS now also have setjmp and longjmp
1022: "compile" and "load" are now make targets. Use them for djb programs.
1023: added contrib/elftrunc.c which will remove unnecessary ELF headers.
1024: Again, contributed from Olaf. Great work!
1025:
1026: 0.5.12:
1027: printf also does signed numbers.
1028: If you don't use atexit, dietlibc now does not link exit, only _exit.
1029: *printf now correctly returns the number of bytes written.
1030: Olaf contributed experimental sscanf and vsscanf implementations.
1031: If passed NULL as buffer, snprintf will not write anything but still
1032: return the number of bytes it would have written.
1033: Initial MIPS port! (Oh, the agony!)
1034: No setjmp and longjmp support yet! Please contribute!
1035: I even implemented unified syscalls for MIPS. Still, MIPS code is
1036: almost twice the size of SPARC code. If anyone knows why: please
1037: tell me!
1038:
1039: 0.5.11:
1040: I implemented new unified syscalls for x86, sparc and ppc, this time based
1041: on .s files and not .c files, and I moved the syscalls into
1042: subdirectores to clean the dietlibc sources up a little.
1043: A binary consisting of printf("%s is %d\n","olaf",23) is now
1044: 2864 bytes on sparc
1045: 2488 bytes on intel
1046: I kludgily implemented fprintf(stdout,... and fprintf(stderr,...
1047: to make a few more applications work.
1048: Olaf Dreesen also implemented some unified syscall stuff for x86.
1049: He discovered that with our unified syscall interface it actually
1050: costs <10 bytes total to make all system calls thread safe!
1051: I implemented atexit() (can register up to 4 callbacks).
1052: I implemented strtod and __dtostr (the opposite). Now we can add
1053: floating point support to vsnprintf and sscanf!
1054:
1055: 0.5.10:
1056: I actually saw that I can not only merge the errno handling code of
1057: the system calls on x86, I can also merge the rest (including the
1058: arguments) except for setting the system call number. All those
1059: system calls are now just a jump to a unified system call handler.
1060: I got rid of x86openclose again. The savings are substantial:
1061: chown from embutils went from 7664 to 7184 bytes!
1062: If I'd move the system call wrappers to assembly language, I could
1063: even reduce the alignment (does not matter since it's just a jump
1064: anyway) and get rid of the "ret" behind each jump (one byte per
1065: system call!)
1066:
1067: 0.5.9:
1068: added memchr, strpbrk, strstr, strtol, isspace (hehe)
1069: fixed strdup
1070: fixed return values for strcpy and strcat (thanks to Norbert Berzen)
1071: Olaf Dreesen contributed a strtol and initial {sn|vsn|}printf implementation
1072: (no signed integers, only strings and unsigned integers (but
1073: supporting octal, hex and decimal). Thanks, Olaf! (by the way:
1074: that code must be wonderful, I don't understand it at all *bg*)
1075: Olaf's printf does understand padding like in "%08d" and "%8d" and
1076: automatically pads pointers with '0'.
1077: Rewrote the x86 start code, old: 22 instructions, new: 12 instructions.
1078: Thanks to proton for inspiration on this.
1079: The new x86 start code also does not reference exit any more, thus saving
1080: 64 bytes for executables that don't call exit explicitly.
1081: [insert maniacal laughter] EVERY BYTE COUNTS!1!! ;-)
1082: Moved errno and environ to start.S, saving no byte binary size but
1083: speeding up compilation and slightly shortening dietlibc.a ;-)
1084: For x86: joined open and close into one assembler file, sharing the
1085: errno handling. This is a feasibility test and it actually saves a
1086: few bytes. I think I will reimplement the _syscall[1-6] macros on
1087: all platforms now to share the errno handling code for them.
1088:
1089: 0.5.8:
1090: fixed strchr to be able to look for 0.
1091:
1092: added _llseek, ftruncate, getpgid, getresgid, getresuid, getsid,
1093: memccpy, memmove, mprotect, setregid, setresgid, setresuid, setreuid,
1094: strncpy, swapon, truncate, strtok, strtok_r, strspn, strcspn (all
1095: contributed by Olaf Dreesen)
1096:
1097: added execvp, getcwd
1098:
1099: fixed __xmknod
1100:
1101: Note: can it be that the ftw interface really is so broken that I
1102: cannot implement it without having to implement some searching data
1103: structure? I included an experimental ftw implementation that will
1104: not follow symlinks.
1105:
1106: 0.5.7:
1107: oops, if_nametoindex was broken!
1108:
1109: 0.5.6:
1110: ported to ppc-linux.
1111: fixed i386 sigsetjmp (I mistyped the function name)
1112: included sigjmp.c
1113:
1114: 0.5.5:
1115: added wait, sys_siglist, longjmp/setjmp/sigsetjmp for i386 and sparc
1116: actually, it wasn't fork that wasn't working for sparc, it was pipe.
1117: I fixed it now.
1118: dietlibc/SPARC assumes -msupersparc (does not provide div, mul, etc)
1119: fixed readdir to use getdents and not the intel inline asm
1120:
1121: 0.5.4:
1122: ported to sparclinux (sparc32 only). Beware: does not work yet.
1123: added raise, abort, readlink, strcat, geteuid, geteuid, wait3, access
1124:
1125: 0.5.3:
1126: added tcsetattr and getenv to compile e3
1127:
1128: 0.5.2:
1129: added vhangup, tcgetattr, isatty and memcmp for fgetty
1130: (http://www.fefe.de/fgetty/)
1131: added localtime from uC-libc.
1132:
1133: 0.5.1:
1134: stat and friends actually work now. Yuck! Another case of
1135: translation between kernel and userland. Why can't the kernel
1136: people and the libc people simply agree on a standard?
1137: removed many unnecessary includes to speed up compilation.
1138: added -fomit-frame-pointer and i386 compilation target to reduce code size.
1139: inlined socketcall to reduce code size.
1140: "load" and "compile" are examples for djb code.
1141:
1142: 0.5:
1143: Olaf Dreesen contributed a much smaller implementation of malloc and friends.
1144: each object file is now treated with "strip -x -R .note -R .comment"
1145: split each system call into a separate object file
1146: added ntohs, htons, alarm, if_indextoname and if_nametoindex
1147:
1148: 0.4.1:
1149: oops, the strchr implementation was wrong. Thanks Jens Laas!
1150:
1151: 0.4:
1152: copied opendir and friends from uC-libc.
1153: added getservent and getservby* in gerservent.c
1154:
1155: 0.3:
1156: remove readdir system call
1157: added getdents system call
1158: added getpwnam/getpwuid implementation in getpwnam.c
1159: added a few string functions (in str*.c)
