1.699 leitner 4: SECURITY: make sure all assembler files mark the stack non-executable so
5: the kernel can map the stack of the whole program as non-executable
1.700 leitner 6: support compiling with clang (no cross compiling yet, and the resulting
7: binary code is significantly larger than with gcc)
8: implement experimental C11 threads
1.701 leitner 9: fix fgets (Andreas Förster)
1.702 leitner 10: add eventfd, inotify_init1, epoll_init1, accept4, recvmmsg, sendmmsg

26: fix dn_expand argument signedness
1.716 ! leitner 27: add explicit_bzero, timingsafe_bcmp and timingsafe_memcmp (OpenBSD APIs useful for crypto)
1.697 leitner 28:
1.673 leitner 29: 0.33:
1.674 leitner 30: first stab at getting TLS to work in actual threads
31: use fs: to find current thread on x86_64
1.675 leitner 32: add fallocate, posix_fallocate
1.676 leitner 33: work around Ubuntu who added -fstack-protector to their gcc, which
34: added stack protector code to the function from the dietlibc startup
35: code that sets up the registers and segments used by the stack
36: protector mechanism.
1.677 leitner 37: fix sys/personality.h (Mathias Krause)

45: and if it is, the SIMD optimized string routines will switch back to
46: a slower version that does not generate valgrind false positives.
1.683 leitner 47: add WANT_LLMNR in dietfeatures.h. Now you can do "ping windowsbox"
48: and it works if that box runs win7 and trusts the LAN; the down side
49: is that LLMNR does not like the .local prefix, so DNS does zeroconf
50: lookup for unqualified names now, too.

1.268 fefe 654: Thomas also sent me profiling support (so far only on x86, but
655: profiling/PORTING describes what needs to be done for other
656: architectures)!
1.272 fefe 657: add contrib/dprof.c, also from Thomas.
1.269 fefe 658: Andreas Krennmair sent a patch to add the BSD regex interface to
659: libcompat
1.271 fefe 660: Andre noticed that __dtostr never sets first to false. Oops!
1.274 fefe 661: Andre has provided a largely untested patch that seems to fix the problem.
1.275 fefe 662: Igor Gilitschenski sent a patch for the "%8.7lx" issue.
1.276 fefe 663: abort did not flush all stdio streams
1.277 fefe 664: fix some nasty regular expression bugs
665: write a stupid malloc checker (contrib/debug-realloc.c) to help me
666: debug my regular expressions. Please read contrib/debug-realloc.txt
1.278 fefe 667: our i386 memchr,memcmp were broken for the count=0 case
1.279 fefe 668: fix DNS domain search
1.280 fefe 669: i386 memccpy exchanged esi and edi :-( I should do more checks before
670: accepting external code...
1.264 fefe 671:
1.244 fefe 672: 0.16:
673: "diet -v" or "diet -Os" segfaulted without further arguments.
1.246 fefe 674: Andre found two very embarassing bugs in my four lines of md5 glue.
675: I need to get more sleep.
1.247 fefe 676: Thanks Ogrisegg found that ptrace does not work as documented and
677: provided a wrapper that emulates the glibc behaviour.
1.248 fefe 678: Dirk Engling saved 8 bytes and 4 cycles in the ARM clone()
679: fix ptrace.h for S/390 and ARM
680: provide a PORTING document so we don't lose track of which file need
681: to be touched to port the diet libc to a new platform.
1.249 fefe 682: remove a few warnings
683: provide a prototype for usleep.
1.250 fefe 684: make __dtostr work on ARM by using long instead of long long.
685: Idea by Dirk Engling.
1.251 fefe 686: fix an argument counting bug in *scanf (Thomas Ogrisegg)
1.252 fefe 687: Forgot an #endif in asm/sigcontext.h (Mike Castle)
1.253 fefe 688: Kurt Garloff sent in patches to
689: fix struct termios on non-x86 architectures
1.254 fefe 690: printf("%+05d\n",500) was broken (Raimar Falke told me, Olaf fixed it)
691: create libcompat.a (and move daemon to it)
1.255 fefe 692: add getdelim and getline
693: *printf now recognize 'z' integer flag (and ignore it)
1.256 olaf 694: Dirk Engling provided a strcpy.S for ARM.
1.257 olaf 695: Olaf: fixed *scanf familie. It hadn't wored with "long long".
1.258 fefe 696: Hans Lermen fixed i386/getenv.S
1.259 fefe 697: diet -Os no longer discards -fpic and -fno-pic
1.260 fefe 698: fix i386 rand/random to use correct RAND_MAX (thanks, Jaroslav
699: Macodiseas)
1.261 fefe 700: sys/ipc.h now includes sys/types.h
1.262 olaf 701: Olaf: started to make the sparc64 port
1.263 fefe 702: scandir should not sort if compar() is NULL (reported by Andrea Marrosu)
1.244 fefe 703:
1.224 fefe 704: 0.15:
1.225 fefe 705: vfork sucks. I reverted to the old behavior where vfork==fork.
1.226 fefe 706: fix bsearch (and remove i386 assembly bsearch, needs to be redone).
1.227 fefe 707: Thanks Ogrisegg sent a patch to make the PA-RISC unified syscall
708: thread-safe!
1.228 fefe 709: remove vfork and add alarm to dynamic syscalls.
710: fix diet-dyn to link in dyn_dstop.o and not dyn_stop.o.
1.229 fefe 711: The MD5 code generated unaligned accesses when passed an unaligned
712: pointer on little endian ARM and MIPS.
713: MIPS unified syscall didn't compile anymore.
714: Put up new mipsel target to cross compile for little endian mips.
715: The mips target will again explicitly set endianness to big endian.
716: Compiling natively on a MIPS box should not touch the endianness.
1.230 fefe 717: Duh, when we removed return0, we broke tzset when the time zone parser
718: was disabled. Uwe Ohse noticed this. Thanks!
719: Fix gethostbyname to match host names case insensitively in /etc/hosts.
720: Oops, this was reported 6 weeks ago but I overlooked the email.
721: Thanks, Denis Rachal!
1.231 fefe 722: vsnprintf's zero termination was broken.
1.233 fefe 723: Uwe Ohse found a few more bugs:
724: Remove WANT_BUGGY_GLIBC_STRSEP. The Linux man page is broken, glibc
725: does it correctly.
726: Make inet_aton use strtoul instead of strtol
727: fdopen would close the file descriptor if it could not malloc the
728: buffer.
729: strftime updates.
730: Make _FILE_OFFSET_BITS includes -Wundef clean
731: Andre found a typo in endian.h for big endian mips
1.234 fefe 732: Ryan told me that fmod was not included in libm. Oops.
1.235 fefe 733: strstr(whatever,"") returned NULL, not whatever. Found by a new test
734: suite entry for strstr that I wrote.
1.245 fefe 735: Thomas Ogrisegg suggested or sent patches for the following:
1.236 fefe 736: add <asm/sigcontext.h> for profiling support.
737: make strncpy a #define in string.h to save a few bytes.
1.241 fefe 738: an i386 assembler getenv implementation (roughly half the size)
739: add grantpt, ptsname, unlockpt
1.236 fefe 740: add a getenv test suite entry.
1.238 fefe 741: Andre contributed an ARM assembler md5 implementation and he fixed mmap
742: on ARM.
743: add glibc macro names in sys/reboot.h. Mentioned by Laurent G. Bercot
1.239 fefe 744: getservent_r did not parse lines without aliases. Thanks, Jaroslav
745: Macodiseas!
1.240 fefe 746: fix MIPS start code (argv[0] was always corrupt)
1.241 fefe 747: removed annoying -Wconversion gcc switch
1.242 fefe 748: add -v to diet.c and fix MIPS CFLAGS in diet. Thanks, Johannes Stezenbach
1.243 fefe 749: Kurt Garloff sent these diffs:
750: add fdatasync (and make it a pthread cancellation point)
751: numerous alpha issues, like using .quad instead of .long for
752: offsets, change strip to -strip in Makefile (so a failing strip does
753: not abort the make), try to be more friendly to the gcc 2.96 that
754: SuSE 7.1 AXP ships with.
1.224 fefe 755:
1.209 fefe 756: 0.14:
1.224 fefe 757: fix brk again (missing __brk, trivial oversight)
1.210 fefe 758: a new i386/atol.S that is 4 bytes smaller (and faster, too!). Thanks,
759: Thomas Ogrisegg!
1.211 fefe 760: Thomas also contributed a PA-RISC port including testandset, so
761: libpthread will work once we implement clone! Great work, Thomas.
1.212 fefe 762: made the fake locale more believable.
763: If you need gettext, use http://www.ca.postgresql.org/~petere/gettext.html
1.213 fefe 764: moved _exit into the unified syscall on x86.
1.214 fefe 765: Uwe Ohse found many more bugs:
766: getpass EINTR handling, ttyname, sysconf_cpus with SLASH_PROC_OK,
767: liblatin1 was more or less completely broken if you gave it chars as
768: arguments, not ints (signedness). execvp had a buffer overflow in
769: case a PATH element exceeded PATH_MAX, but it's not a security
770: problem since setuid programs need to set their path to some known
771: value anyway.
1.219 fefe 772: hasmntopt did not work with foo=bar style options
1.217 fefe 773: Uwe also improved ftw's stack usage.
1.214 fefe 774: Put movl instead of popl rationale in comment in i386/unified.S since
775: three people have suggested saving a few bytes with popl now ;)
1.215 fefe 776: I discovered __attribute__((malloc)) and started using it. For gcc 3,
777: it improves the optimizer when functions return malloced pointers.
1.216 fefe 778: Steven Rostedt pointed out that my setvbuf was broken with regard to
779: size==0 and sent a patch to fix it.
1.218 fefe 780: Thomas Ogrisegg made setenv smaller.
1.220 olaf 781: Olaf: implemented the parisc clone and an atomic testandset, modified the
782: libpthread to respect the parisc UPgrowing stack. still non functional,
783: because the unified syscall uses errno :(
1.221 fefe 784: tcgetospeed read from the wrong termios field. Thanks, Gunnar Ritter!
1.222 fefe 785: Fixed asprintf (relied on vsnprintf(NULL,...) to return length but
786: don't write anything which was no longer the case. It also
787: allocated one byte unnecessarily, which Uwe Ohse found.
1.223 fefe 788: Fix ttyname (readlink does not \0-terminate, forgot to do that).
1.209 fefe 789:
1.193 fefe 790: 0.13:
1.194 fefe 791: add readdir64 and automatic mapping if _FILE_OFFSET_BITS == 64
1.199 fefe 792: make diet not include the linker safeguard stuff when preprocessing
1.207 fefe 793: Olaf: port to S/390!
1.463 leitner 794: fix vfork (it was put into dietlibc.a twice)
1.197 leitner 795: res_query did not initialize last
1.199 fefe 796: diet (not diet-dyn, of course) now adds -static to the gcc command line
1.198 leitner 797: fixed fflush on input streams (tic from ncurses exposed this)
1.199 fefe 798: duh, there is an alarm system call, too, so we use it and not setitimer
1.200 fefe 799: fix comparison in gmtime_r that caused Jan 1 to be converted to Dec 32.
1.201 fefe 800: rewrote __dtostr (it also has one more argument now)
1.205 fefe 801: Thanks to Erik Troan for bringing these to my attention:
1.204 fefe 802: make putenv behave like glibc (putenv("HOME") == unsetenv("HOME"))
803: fix strncat for the case where n == 0 (security implications?)
804: fix bsearch (it didn't find the very last element in the array, same
805: bug in both the C and the i386 assembly version).
1.205 fefe 806: fixed FNM_PATHNAME in fnmatch
1.204 fefe 807: fix brk (the syscall was documented incorrectly in the Linux man page)
808: Thanks, Thomas Ogrisegg!
1.205 fefe 809: added negated character classes to fnmatch (not required by POSIX)
1.206 fefe 810: make the utmp routines open utmp read-only if read-write doesn't work.
1.208 fefe 811: remove syscalls.c directory, it is obsolete now with unified syscalls
1.193 fefe 812:
1.164 fefe 813: 0.12:
814: more contributions from Frank Klemm.
1.165 fefe 815: iconv can now do UCS-2, too.
1.167 fefe 816: Imported several x86 assembly routines from Wouter van Kleunen.
1.166 fefe 817: Lots of bug fixes, and several more i386 specific versions of common
818: routines to make them smaller.
1.168 fefe 819: add memmem (a GNU extension that looks useful)
1.170 fefe 820: several changes from Michal Ludvig: inttypes.h gets C99 macros,
1.168 fefe 821: add pivot_root syscall, %n for *scanf.
1.169 fefe 822: add adjtimex (thanks, Laurent BERCOT)
1.171 fefe 823: add Frank Klemm's optimized md5
1.172 fefe 824: add -Os option to diet (see diet.1).
1.173 fefe 825: several IPv6 constants and HZ were missing, thanks Johannes Kloos.
1.174 fefe 826: add 32-bit uid/gid syscalls.
1.175 fefe 827: add rand48 (thanks, Johannes Kloos)
1.176 fefe 828: fixed a lot of bugs in getopt* (thanks, Johannes)
1.177 fefe 829: add strxfrm and tweak limits.h. glib-1.3.8 now compiles without changes.
830: add a few more module syscalls. modutils-2.4.9 now compiles without changes.
831: fix gethostent alias list termination. Major oops.
1.178 fefe 832: add execle and two DNS constants (from Johannes Kloos).
1.179 fefe 833: opendir did not close-on-exec (thanks, Laurent Bercot).
1.180 fefe 834: DNS will now properly signal errors and set h_errno.
835: A few more cleanups (thanks, Andreas Jabs and Matthias Andree).
1.181 fefe 836: Added an uber-cool linker safeguard feature! Idea by Matthias Andree.
837: If you enable WANT_SAFEGUARD in dietfeatures.h, diet will include an
838: external reference to a symbol that is only in the diet libc. So,
839: when you accidentally link a diet libc compiled object file against
840: glibc, the linker will barf. This will bloat your object files, but
841: you can remove all the references with "strip -R .note" from
842: the binaries in the end (which you should do anyway).
1.182 fefe 843: fix ARM unified syscall (select did not work).
1.183 fefe 844: add getpwent_r ala glibc and replace getpwent
845: do the same for getgrent and getspent
846: remove entlib (new code is smaller)
1.184 fefe 847: rewrite getserv* to use parselib (and provide ..._r, too)
1.185 fefe 848: add getpwnam_r and getpwuid_r
1.186 fefe 849: rewrite getproto* to use parselib (and protive ..._r, too)
1.187 fefe 850: Olaf muddled with the dynamic linker. It's a clean-room
851: implementation in the sense that it once worked for Olaf in a clean
852: room ;)
1.188 fefe 853: add if_nameindex and if_freenameindex.
854: fixed arm unified syscalls to work with current binutils (; is no
855: longer a line separator but starts a comment, switched to .macro)
1.189 fefe 856: changed all st_[cma]time types to signed long so comparisons against
857: LONG_MIN will work correctly. (GNU tar does this)
1.190 fefe 858: fixed two bugs regarding ungetc.
859: add getusershell, setusershell, endusershell (for vs_ftpd)
860: add prctl, dirfd (also for vs_ftpd)
1.191 fefe 861: fixed strftime (was completely hosed)
1.192 fefe 862: added real make install target
1.164 fefe 863:
1.115 fefe 864: 0.11:
865: fix major oops in DNS routines (only with WANT_FULL_RESOLV_CONF enabled).
1.116 fefe 866: fix vsscanf bug (Thanks, David Chappell).
1.117 fefe 867: add floor, ceil and memchr prototypes.
868: add __builtin_expect and expect #defines for gcc versions below 3.0
1.118 fefe 869: cleaner errno vs __errno_location handling
870: add placeholder iconv (iconv_open will always return EINVAL)
871: try to remove kernel 2.4 header dependency in IPv6 sockaddr_in6
872: initialization of getaddrinfo.
1.119 fefe 873: fix vsnprintf %X (printed lower case)
1.120 fefe 874: I wrote a new getopt. It appears to actually work (it is POSIX
875: compliant, it does not sort argv like the GNU version) and is only
876: a little over 300 bytes on x86.
1.121 fefe 877: Guillaume Cottenceau just wrote me that strncat should be even more
878: broken than it already is: it should append n bytes AND THEN \0!
1.463 leitner 879: I wonder how many programmers have produced off-by-one errors here...
1.122 fefe 880: Fix regexec offset return. autoconf now believes that diet libc has
881: POSIX regular expressions.
1.123 fefe 882: Fix fnmatch (a/b/* matched a/b/c/d even if FNM_PATHNAME was set)
1.124 fefe 883: Fix regular expression match for x* when there is no x at all.
1.668 leitner 884: Fix memory leak in error case in gethostbyname(2|). Thanks, Dietz Pr?pper.
1.126 fefe 885: Add %h to vsnprintf.
1.127 fefe 886: Add FAQ.
1.128 fefe 887: Make %h work for signed numbers and add %hh to vsnprintf.
888: initgroups ignored the group argument :-(
889: remove printf references and nested functions from glob.
1.129 fefe 890: added an errno in libpthread that will display a prominent linker
891: warning.
1.131 fefe 892: started getting rid of kernel headers. Big task! :-(
1.130 fefe 893: add res_mkquery. The diet libc can now compile and link mtr.
1.132 olaf 894: Olaf: added a lot of code in libdl (not yet complete), changed the
895: startup code to make it work with his libdl and ld.so (needs still work
896: too)
1.134 fefe 897: __dns_readstartfiles only took the first domain or search path.
898: Thanks, Anthony de Boer
1.133 olaf 899: Olaf: added clone and a new unified_syscall for PowerPC
900: also dynlinker is now available (i386 only at this time)
1.135 fefe 901: crufted together a stdarg.h implementation from the various gcc headers.
1.136 fefe 902: implement getopt_long (ugh, the GNU people need professional help)
1.137 fefe 903: fixed word delimiters in regex (they looked for space, i.e. "," did
904: not work as delimiter)
1.138 fefe 905: errno.h now declares sys_errlist and sys_nerr.
1.143 fefe 906: added mkdtemp.
1.142 fefe 907: Uwe Ohse reported all of the following bugs:
908: ttyname should return 0 if !isatty.
909: realpath returns NULL if "." cannot be opened
910: putenv erroneously accepted (and mishandled) entries without "=".
911: popen returned 255 instead of 127 if /bin/sh could not be run.
912: fgetc did not set the internal EOF indicator on EOF.
913: bsearch contained an assumption about integer arithmetic overflow
914: behavior.
915: system did not set SIGCHLD and thus contained a race.
916: popen did not set close-on-exec and could leak an fd on malloc error.
1.147 fefe 917: daemon did not check whether open returns an fd below 3
918: perror did not save errno.
1.144 olaf 919: Olaf: Peter Jones reported some problems with perror; strerror had the
920: same problem.
921: Peter also posted a patch to atexit/exit. With some modifications it is
922: now implemented.
1.145 fefe 923: Unbuffered stdio and ungetc can no longer be disabled. I will try to
924: implement part of it using ELF weak symbols.
1.146 fefe 925: Added minimal sysconf (tehe) from David Chappell.
1.148 fefe 926: Added overflow handling for strtoul and strtol.
1.149 fefe 927: Added WANT_ETC_HOSTS in dietfeatures.h and made gethostbyname/2 use
928: it before falling back to DNS if enabled.
1.150 fefe 929: Added a littie backwards compatibility cruft for gpm (man, do these
930: sources stink!)
1.151 fefe 931: Added openpty.
1.152 fefe 932: Squeeze a few bytes off the is* routines, courtesy of Peter Jones.
1.154 fefe 933: Fix fseek return value.
1.155 fefe 934: Add dirname and basename.
1.156 fefe 935: Add a few i386 math routines contributed by Frank Klemm.
1.157 fefe 936: Fixed getservent (did not allow _ and - in the aliases).
937: Thanks, Oden Eriksson
1.158 fefe 938: Added a float.h so configure believes we have ANSI header files.
939: Fix a lot more stdio bugs that Uwe Ohse pointed out.
1.162 fefe 940: Olaf: has added a new scanf and printf core that is suitable for all
1.159 olaf 941: scanf and printf function implementations
1.160 fefe 942: Imported a few more functions and optimizations from Frank Klemm (he
943: also rewrote dtostr to have more precision)
1.161 olaf 944: Olaf: checked in a new sig* function family (based on rt_sig*).
945: legacy <2.2 signal-handling doesn't work at the moment.
1.163 fefe 946: Made rudimentary iconv that can convert back and forth between
947: iso-8859-1, utf-8 and ucs-4 (for debugging).
948: Thanks to Markus Kuhn for the excellent utf-8(7)!
1.115 fefe 949:
1.74 fefe 950: 0.10:
951: update getpagesize.
952: add personality.
1.75 fefe 953: add "%*s" and "%*.*s" support to vsnprintf.
1.76 fefe 954: add putchar (apparently arm-linux-gcc will substitute printf("\n")
955: with putchar('\n') behind your back...?!
1.77 fefe 956: import include/scsi/ from glibc.
1.78 fefe 957: add iopl.
1.80 fefe 958: add execl and sigdelset prototypes.
959: add getopt_long stuff to getopt.h (may compile but won't link).
1.81 fefe 960: add RPC headers (no code yet).
1.82 fefe 961: add mlockall, munlockall
1.83 fefe 962: make "diet gcc foo.c" work.
963: added Sun RPC code and removed as many warnings as possible in a
964: heroic act of self-mutilation.
965: added getproto* and getdtablesize for the RPC cruft :-(
1.84 fefe 966: added getpass. mount from util-linux actually compiles now!
967: fix the sig*set routines. mount actually works now *bg*
968: fix fwrite dividing by zero when trying to fwrite n records of size 0.
1.85 fefe 969: added an initial regex implementation (3500 bytes!!!).
1.87 fefe 970: add llseek and lseek64 with optional lseek fall-back.
1.88 fefe 971: add res_init.
972: add asprintf (ugh, what an ugly function).
1.89 fefe 973: expanded arpa/nameser.h to include backwards compatibility defines
1.90 fefe 974: add ut_name alias to ut_host in struct utmp.
975: add inet_ntop, inet_pton, gethostbyname2.
1.92 fefe 976: add sysinfo, recvmsg, sendmsg.
1.93 fefe 977: add endmntent, getmntent, setmntent.
1.94 fefe 978: fix fnmatch (thanks, Guillaume Cottenceau!)
1.96 fefe 979: add setenv.
980: remove __restrict from mntent.h, add __restrict__ removal alias for
981: older gcc versions in sys/cdefs.h.
982: add rlim_t, sig_atomic_t declarations.
983: add sigsetjmp #define for __sigsetjmp (oops).
984: (Thanks to Chris Siebenmann for these three bug reports)
1.97 fefe 985: add a gruesome hack to printf floating point to accept %f and kludge
986: together support for %.2f. Don't look at the code, please!
1.98 fefe 987: fixed tcsetpgrp (oops, this is embarassing! Thanks, Chris Siebenmann)
1.99 fefe 988: imported fix for entlib by Jeff Garzik.
1.100 fefe 989: add glob implementation from Guillaume Cottenceau (Thanks!!)
990: add libdl fragments from Olaf (Yeah! One step closer to dynamic linking!)
1.101 fefe 991: add REG_ICASE and word start/end handling to my regular expressions.
992: my regular expressions now actually match substrings (i.e. "foobar" to "bar").
1.102 fefe 993: wrap getcwd to comply to man page (the syscall returns the number of
994: bytes, not the buffer)
995: add realpath.
1.103 fefe 996: fix vfprintf.
1.104 fefe 997: fix *scanf %s zero termination.
998: add abs, labs, llabs.
1.105 fefe 999: add <sys/io.h>, ioperm syscall.
1000: add flock to <sys/file.h>
1.106 fefe 1001: fixes to bsearch and the regular expressions.
1.107 fefe 1002: add fake herror.
1.108 fefe 1003: add scandir and alphasort.
1.109 fefe 1004: add killpg
1.110 fefe 1005: implemented a gross hack to make libpthread compile when
1006: dietfeatures.h does not define WANT_THREAD_SAFE (it's empty then).
1.111 fefe 1007: add getaddrinfo and freeaddrinfo (man, what a fucked up interface!)
1.112 fefe 1008: fix sigsuspend (syscall had completely fscked up arguments!)
1.113 fefe 1009: RLIM_INFINITY from the kernel is broken. Thanks to Chris Siebenmann
1010: for sending a patch.
1.114 fefe 1011: add getserv*.
1012: add WANT_FULL_RESOLV_CONF so that the DNS routines use "domain" and
1013: "search" from resolv.conf.
1.74 fefe 1014:
1.73 fefe 1015: 0.9:
1.65 fefe 1016: fixed initgroups (oops)
1.66 fefe 1017: Cleanup appending file open for stdio (thanks, James Antill)
1018: imported vfprintf fix from James Antill.
1.67 fefe 1019: add fnmatch
1020: change index, rindex and bcmp as weak ELF symbols (were #defined before)
1.68 fefe 1021: Olaf added character classes to *scanf.
1.69 fefe 1022: Put object and library files into a separate directory (bin-$ARCH).
1023: Add "cross" make target to make all architectures.
1024: Add "diet" program and man page.
1.70 fefe 1025: Add getgrnam, getgrgid
1.71 fefe 1026: Add cfmakeraw (Thanks, Antonio Musumeci)
1.72 fefe 1027: localtime won't call gettimeofday when the tzfile parser is used.
1.65 fefe 1028:
1.64 fefe 1029: 0.8:
1.34 fefe 1030: vsnprintf(0,...) estimated the length of strings with a padding width
1031: incorrectly.
1.35 fefe 1032: new reboot() from Olaf.
1.36 fefe 1033: added prototypes for getsockopt and setsockopt.
1.39 fefe 1034: added experimental sem* and shm*
1.38 fefe 1035: define EXIT_SUCCESS and EXIT_FAILURE
1.40 fefe 1036: added setvbuf (only changes mode, not buffer)
1.41 fefe 1037: added dietwarning.h (woohoo, linker warnings!) and used it to warn of
1038: insecurity (system, sprintf) or bloat (printf and stdio).
1.42 fefe 1039: added qsort() and bsearch(). Benchmark on 1000 random ints:
1040: glibc: 679414 cycles qsort and 3352 cycles bsearch
1041: diet libc: 300010 cycles qsort, 553 cycles bsearch
1042: I have no idea why glibc is so slow.
1.43 fefe 1043: added __isnan (references by libm.a from glibc).
1044: added popen() and pclose(). Now the diet libc can link slsh (from
1045: S-Lang!)
1.44 fefe 1046: corrected usleep. It was more of an msleep until now.
1.45 fefe 1047: corrected __dtostr (it looped when trying to format "0.0").
1048: several fixes to stdio (thanks to S-Lang's excellent test suite!)
1.46 fefe 1049: added ungetc (does it work?)
1.47 fefe 1050: added inet_aton (yuck!)
1.50 fefe 1051: added gethostbyname, gethostbyaddr, gethostbyname_r and gethostbyaddr_r
1.48 fefe 1052: added h_errno and __h_errno_location
1053: added inet_ntoa
1.49 fefe 1054: added setpgrp and getpgrp, strsignal and execv (thanks, Olaf)
1.51 fefe 1055: add bcopy, index, rindex macros
1056: add isgraph and isxdigit
1.52 fefe 1057: add strftime (ugh!!!)
1.53 olaf 1058: Olaf fixed strftime, gmtime_r leap year bug.
1.54 fefe 1059: Jeff Garzik contributed a spec file. I put it in contrib and hope
1060: everbody knows what to do with it...
1061: Olaf checked in a ton of libpthread stuff.
1.55 fefe 1062: added mkstemp using /dev/urandom (harder to guess than getpid()).
1.56 fefe 1063: add large file backwards compatibility support (so gzip will run on
1064: kernel 2.2 and 2.0)
1.57 fefe 1065: added shutdown
1.58 fefe 1066: added nice
1067: added pseudo-locale support for is* (they are now weak aliases,
1068: isupper -> __isupper_ascii etc). So, for example, liblatin1 can
1069: overwrite the default is* functions.
1.59 fefe 1070: added liblatin1.a
1.60 fefe 1071: added tzfile implementation (does it work for anyone else?)
1.668 leitner 1072: added syslog(3) (thanks to Rene M?ller!)
1.62 fefe 1073: Jeff Garzik contributed getgr*, getpw* and getsp* in one tiny package.
1074: Thanks!
1.63 fefe 1075: merged duplicate code in execv and execvp into exec_lib.o
1.34 fefe 1076:
1.21 fefe 1077: 0.7.2:
1078: added several prototypes to already implemented functions and
1079: <sys/reboot.h>. Thanks for Abraham for pointing this out.
1.22 fefe 1080: added prototypes for process group and dup syscalls. Thanks to
1081: Abraham again. He also contributed an implementation for daemon(),
1082: an ugly BSD hack. I decided to diversify the lib/ directory a
1083: little and now created a libugly/ directory for stuff like system()
1084: and daemon() ;-)
1085: added libstdio and moved all that stdio crap from lib/ there. The
1086: idea is to start separating now what we will separate for shared
1087: libraries anyway.
1.26 fefe 1088: optimized x86 unified-syscall by Olaf.
1.27 fefe 1089: added limits.h, removed __ARCHBITS from endian.h (use __WORDSIZE from
1090: limits.h instead)
1091: added remove.c and enough cruft to limits.h to make it compile lzo,
1092: lzop and bzip2.
1.28 fefe 1093: added mktime, asctime_r, asctime and ctime (needed for gzip).
1094: Someone will need to implement a reader for the glibc localtime file
1.31 fefe 1095: format some day (man tzfile, ugh!) :-(
1.29 fefe 1096: added unlink prototype to unistd.h.
1097: added gmtime and gmtime_r.
1.31 fefe 1098: fixed sparc unified syscall error handling (please upgrade!).
1.30 fefe 1099: removed readdir glibc compatibility cruft.
1.31 fefe 1100: removed stat glibc compatibility cruft.
1.32 fefe 1101: oops, my fread was broken for pipes.
1.33 fefe 1102: Olaf found a bug in pipe() for sparc, too.
1.21 fefe 1103:
1.9 fefe 1104: 0.7.1:
1.11 fefe 1105: optimized away the static arrays from __ltostr and __lltostr.
1106: optimized away the static arrays (and more!) from strtoul and strtoull.
1107: added system (by Olaf).
1.12 fefe 1108: added tolower and toupper
1.13 fefe 1109: added getopt from Olaf (~600 bytes on x86!)
1.14 fefe 1110: added clone for mips (by Olaf).
1111: fixed longjmp and setjmp on sparc not to require glibc include files.
1.15 olaf 1112: added pause for all (by Olaf).
1.17 fefe 1113: added __attribute__ ((__const__)) to ctype.h
1.16 fefe 1114: added isupper and islower.
1115: added putc and putchar as macros.
1.17 fefe 1116: added strcasecmp and strncasecmp (thanks to Abraham vd Merwe for
1117: insightful discussions and patches I partially used for the last three)
1.18 fefe 1118: added getpriority and setpriority (also by Abraham)
1.19 fefe 1119: oops, I broke strtoul in a recent optimization attempt.
1.20 fefe 1120: oi, setjmp and longjmp were broken on other platforms, too!
1.668 leitner 1121: Thanks to S?bastien C?t? for reporting this.
1.9 fefe 1122:
1123: 0.7:
1.6 olaf 1124: clone support for i386,alpha,arm and sparc by Olaf.
1.1 cvs 1125: Initial dynamic loading glue for i386, also by Olaf.
1126: We don't have a dynamic loader yet, so this is not yet usable.
1127: added readv, sigdelset, sigaltstack, sigfillset, sigismember, usleep,
1128: vsprintf, writev, all by Olaf.
1.2 fefe 1129: imported readdir fix from Guillaume. Mhh, can the kernel interface
1130: really be this broken?
1.3 fefe 1131: Found a kludgy way to detect whether the kernel includes define struct
1132: stat64 (they also define STAT64_HAS_BROKEN_ST_INO). If this does
1133: not work for you, please tell me!
1.4 fefe 1134: Removed bogus __seek_types enum, it's a bunch of #defines now.
1.7 fefe 1135: Fixed stdio line buffering. The code was already there but I forgot
1136: to mark stdio and stdout as line buffered. This should really be
1137: done dynamically using isatty, though.
1.8 fefe 1138: Removed superfluous "if (1)" in execvp.c
1.1 cvs 1139:
1140: 0.6.14:
1141: *scanf did not append the 0 byte for %s.
1142: added creat and changed creat to call open directly instead of open64.
1143: did for fread what 0.6.10 did for fwrite.
1144: repaired buffered stdio a little (line buffering is still not
1145: supported).
1146: [All of these bugs have been reported by Guillaume. Thanks!]
1147: added __pure__ to strchr and strrchr in <string.h>
1148:
1149: 0.6.13:
1150: included COPYING to make clear that the diet libc is covered by the
1151: GNU General Public License (and _not_ the LGPL). That means that
1152: you need to obtain a license from me if you want to use the diet
1153: libc in a proprietary program that you want to distribute.
1154: The x86 unified syscall swapped arguments #4 and #5 and noone
1155: noticed until now! Thanks to Guillaume Cottenceau for reporting
1156: this!
1157: The malloc had a subtle bug with small allocations that could cause
1158: segfault. Guillaume reported it, Olaf fixed it.
1159:
1160: 0.6.12:
1161: added assert, statfs and fstatfs
1162: added include/net/if.h so fget compiles again.
1163:
1164: 0.6.11:
1165: added putenv.
1166:
1167: 0.6.10:
1168: fixed fwrite. It returned the number of bytes written, not the number
1169: of records. Thanks to Albert D. Cahalan for pointing this out.
1170: fixed fgets. It returned EOF on empty lines. Thanks, Erik Frey.
1171: added brk and sbrk. harold@nb.com.sg made me do it.
1172:
1173: 0.6.9:
1174: fixed execvp not to return on ENOENT
1175: did for {open|read|close|seek|tell}dir what I did for stat before.
1176: The glibc compatibility part is currently non-functional.
1177: fixed white space handling in sscanf " (" would not match " (".
1178: fixed printf to accept 'l' flag.
1179: fixed getpwuid (ignored last line)
1180:
1181: 0.6.8:
1182: Olaf contributed initial thread-safe syscalls for i386, alpha, sparc,
1183: mips and arm. I did the one for ppc. They can be enabled in dietfeatures.h.
1184: added strlcpy and strlcat from OpenBSD.
1185: added stat64, fstat64 and lstat64.
1186: added endian.h and made ending of strlen.c endianness-aware
1187: added string routines size tweak to dietfeatures.h. Most of the
1188: string routines have been unrolled. This is up to three times as
1189: fast but creates up to three times larger code. Now you can disable
1190: the unrolling.
1191: added sendfile.
1192: I also added pread. It works on x86 and sparc but not on ppc and mips.
1193: I have no idea what's going on. strace disagrees with the kernel.
1194: Can anyone help? I asked the Linux kernel mailing list for help, too.
1195: added a few aliases of the type __libc_open for open. nm on
1196: libpthreads.so indicates that we will need them.
1197:
1198: 0.6.7:
1199: the sources now compile without warnings with -Wall.
1200: printf now prints "(null)" when %s is passed NULL. This can be
1201: removed with WANT_NULL_PRINTF in dietfeatures.h
1202: added vfprintf, execl, ttyname.
1203: stat, lstat and fstat are now #defined to __dietstat, __dietlstat and
1204: __dietfstat so they can use the normal kernel struct stat.
1205: stat, lstat and fstat are now C wrappers that convert to the glibc
1206: struct stat. So we can avoid that overhead for programs that use
1207: dietlibc headers.
1208:
1209: 0.6.6:
1210: changed the Makefiles so you can now set CFLAGS on the command line
1211: added memccmp (analogous to memccpy) and strncmp.
1212: Olaf fixed another bug in the sparc unified syscall.
1213: Paul Clifford contributed a C version of his strlen.S that is much
1214: more efficient than the previous strlen on all platforms! It also
1215: looks like technology from Roswell. ;-}
1216: added a "real" stdio. Well, almost. Please contribute!
1217: added dietfeatures.h so you can remove features you don't need.
1218: removed debug code from vsnprintf that changed \0 to ' ' (argh!).
1219: stdio now works with simple programs and minigzip from libz.
1220: stdio uses some major trickery to avoid linking the stdio, stderr and
1221: stdout (and reserving space for them) when they are not used.
1222:
1223: 0.6.5:
1224: Red Plait <redplait@ixcelerator.com> found several bugs in diet libc,
1225: most of them bugs in the new header files, but also missing sigset
1226: functions.
1227: Paul Clifford contributed an assembly strlen.S for ARM and fixed
1228: several bugs.
1229: Fixed ppc/setjmp and mips/pipe.
1230: Olaf contributed a new sparc unified syscall.
1231:
1232: 0.6.4:
1233: declared is* static inline in getservent.
1234: added assert_fail, strtoul, isalpha, isdigit, isalnum, isascii.
1235: changed strlen to return 0 when passed NULL.
1236: new, much smaller unified syscall for MIPS. Thanks to Olaf the Mad
1237: Scientist who actually implemented this without access to a MIPS
1238: box, just from reading the architecture manual. And it worked out
1239: of the box.
1240: started a set of system includes, mainly so that I can use lcc and
1241: my alpha-linux cross compiler (which is unable to cross-compile
1242: glibc). diet libc can now be compiled without any include files
1243: from a normal libc. The includes do declare more than diet libc
1244: currently delivers and they are still far from complete for real
1245: applications.
1246: I will only add assembly versions that are smaller _and_ faster than
1247: the C version. Larger routines are only accepted if they are called
1248: very often and are substantially faster.
1249: added i386 assembly strchr, which is smaller and faster than the old
1250: version. It is, however, larger than the version contributed by
1251: proton (thanks, anyway).
1252: added i386 strlen (31% faster, 14% smaller)
1253: "make t" will now create a map file called "mapfile".
1254:
1255: 0.6.3:
1256: added sys_errlist, strerror and perror
1257: added isblank
1258: added atol
1259:
1260: 0.6.2:
1261: mmap for ARM didn't compile. Thanks, Paul!
1262:
1263: 0.6.1:
1264: split mmap into the architecture specific subdirectories.
1265: getenv now copes with environ==NULL, thanks Paul Clifford.
1266: Paul also contributed a smaller ARM startup code.
1267:
1268: 0.6:
1.668 leitner 1269: strcat returned the wrong result. Thanks, Dietz Pr?pper.
1.1 cvs 1270: strtod now understands a negative exponent (oops, thanks Bertram Barth)
1271: Port to arm-linux-gnu, but on the Netwinder I use for testing the
1272: __dtostr does not work (I have no idea why!)
1273: The MIPS port now uses (much smaller) non-PIC code. That means that
1274: the applications you link against diet libc also have to be compiled
1275: non-PIC. I suggest copying the CFLAGS from the diet libc Makefile.
1.668 leitner 1276: Thanks to Ralf B?chle for helping me with this!
1.1 cvs 1277: I made subdirectories for the architectures and use VPATH to override
1278: VPATH so that make finds the source file automatically. That should
1279: simplify the sources greatly.
1280: Olaf Dreesen contributed Alpha support including setjmp and longjmp!
1281: ARM and MIPS now also have setjmp and longjmp
1282: "compile" and "load" are now make targets. Use them for djb programs.
1283: added contrib/elftrunc.c which will remove unnecessary ELF headers.
1284: Again, contributed from Olaf. Great work!
1285:
1286: 0.5.12:
1287: printf also does signed numbers.
1288: If you don't use atexit, dietlibc now does not link exit, only _exit.
1289: *printf now correctly returns the number of bytes written.
1290: Olaf contributed experimental sscanf and vsscanf implementations.
1291: If passed NULL as buffer, snprintf will not write anything but still
1292: return the number of bytes it would have written.
1293: Initial MIPS port! (Oh, the agony!)
1294: No setjmp and longjmp support yet! Please contribute!
1295: I even implemented unified syscalls for MIPS. Still, MIPS code is
1296: almost twice the size of SPARC code. If anyone knows why: please
1297: tell me!
1298:
1299: 0.5.11:
1300: I implemented new unified syscalls for x86, sparc and ppc, this time based
1301: on .s files and not .c files, and I moved the syscalls into
1302: subdirectores to clean the dietlibc sources up a little.
1303: A binary consisting of printf("%s is %d\n","olaf",23) is now
1304: 2864 bytes on sparc
1305: 2488 bytes on intel
1306: I kludgily implemented fprintf(stdout,... and fprintf(stderr,...
1307: to make a few more applications work.
1308: Olaf Dreesen also implemented some unified syscall stuff for x86.
1309: He discovered that with our unified syscall interface it actually
1310: costs <10 bytes total to make all system calls thread safe!
1311: I implemented atexit() (can register up to 4 callbacks).
1312: I implemented strtod and __dtostr (the opposite). Now we can add
1313: floating point support to vsnprintf and sscanf!
1314:
1315: 0.5.10:
1316: I actually saw that I can not only merge the errno handling code of
1317: the system calls on x86, I can also merge the rest (including the
1318: arguments) except for setting the system call number. All those
1319: system calls are now just a jump to a unified system call handler.
1320: I got rid of x86openclose again. The savings are substantial:
1321: chown from embutils went from 7664 to 7184 bytes!
1322: If I'd move the system call wrappers to assembly language, I could
1323: even reduce the alignment (does not matter since it's just a jump
1324: anyway) and get rid of the "ret" behind each jump (one byte per
1325: system call!)
1326:
1327: 0.5.9:
1328: added memchr, strpbrk, strstr, strtol, isspace (hehe)
1329: fixed strdup
1330: fixed return values for strcpy and strcat (thanks to Norbert Berzen)
1331: Olaf Dreesen contributed a strtol and initial {sn|vsn|}printf implementation
1332: (no signed integers, only strings and unsigned integers (but
1333: supporting octal, hex and decimal). Thanks, Olaf! (by the way:
1334: that code must be wonderful, I don't understand it at all *bg*)
1335: Olaf's printf does understand padding like in "%08d" and "%8d" and
1336: automatically pads pointers with '0'.
1337: Rewrote the x86 start code, old: 22 instructions, new: 12 instructions.
1338: Thanks to proton for inspiration on this.
1339: The new x86 start code also does not reference exit any more, thus saving
1340: 64 bytes for executables that don't call exit explicitly.
1341: [insert maniacal laughter] EVERY BYTE COUNTS!1!! ;-)
1342: Moved errno and environ to start.S, saving no byte binary size but
1343: speeding up compilation and slightly shortening dietlibc.a ;-)
1344: For x86: joined open and close into one assembler file, sharing the
1345: errno handling. This is a feasibility test and it actually saves a
1346: few bytes. I think I will reimplement the _syscall[1-6] macros on
1347: all platforms now to share the errno handling code for them.
1348:
1349: 0.5.8:
1350: fixed strchr to be able to look for 0.
1351:
1352: added _llseek, ftruncate, getpgid, getresgid, getresuid, getsid,
1353: memccpy, memmove, mprotect, setregid, setresgid, setresuid, setreuid,
1354: strncpy, swapon, truncate, strtok, strtok_r, strspn, strcspn (all
1355: contributed by Olaf Dreesen)
1356:
1357: added execvp, getcwd
1358:
1359: fixed __xmknod
1360:
1361: Note: can it be that the ftw interface really is so broken that I
1362: cannot implement it without having to implement some searching data
1363: structure? I included an experimental ftw implementation that will
1364: not follow symlinks.
1365:
1366: 0.5.7:
1367: oops, if_nametoindex was broken!
1368:
1369: 0.5.6:
1370: ported to ppc-linux.
1371: fixed i386 sigsetjmp (I mistyped the function name)
1372: included sigjmp.c
1373:
1374: 0.5.5:
1375: added wait, sys_siglist, longjmp/setjmp/sigsetjmp for i386 and sparc
1376: actually, it wasn't fork that wasn't working for sparc, it was pipe.
1377: I fixed it now.
1378: dietlibc/SPARC assumes -msupersparc (does not provide div, mul, etc)
1379: fixed readdir to use getdents and not the intel inline asm
1380:
1381: 0.5.4:
1382: ported to sparclinux (sparc32 only). Beware: does not work yet.
1383: added raise, abort, readlink, strcat, geteuid, geteuid, wait3, access
1384:
1385: 0.5.3:
1386: added tcsetattr and getenv to compile e3
1387:
1388: 0.5.2:
1389: added vhangup, tcgetattr, isatty and memcmp for fgetty
