Eric Blake a512e041 2016-09-14T19:36:14 sys_types: avoid glibc 2.25 warnings about major() glibc 2.25 is deprecating the namespace pollution of <sys/types.h> injecting major(), minor(), and makedev() into the compilation environment, with a warning that insists that users include <sys/sysmacros.h> instead. However, because the expansion of AC_HEADER_MAJOR didn't bother checking sys/sysmacros.h until after probing whether sys/types.h pollutes the namespace, it was not defining MAJOR_IN_SYSMACROS, with the result that code compiled with -Werror chokes on the deprecation warnings because it was not including sysmacros.h. Backport the autoconf fix (see autoconf commit e17a30e98), so that gnulib projects avoid the warnings even when using older autoconf. * m4/sys_types_h.m4 (AC_HEADER_MAJOR): Replace broken version in older autoconf. * doc/posix-headers/sys_types.texi (sys/types.h): Document fix. * doc/glibc-functions/gnu_dev_major.texi (gnu_dev_major): Likewise. * doc/glibc-functions/gnu_dev_makedev.texi (gnu_dev_makedev): Likewise. * doc/glibc-functions/gnu_dev_minor.texi (gnu_dev_minor): Likewise.

Prompted by a request from Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos.
Pino Toscano f982bc8d 2015-10-12T12:27:10 accept4-tests: fix to avoid non portable flags * tests/test-accept4.c (main): Pass only SOCK_* flags to accept4(), as they are the only documented ones, and passing others may trigger EINVAL (seen on FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE). * doc/glibc-functions/accept4.texi: Mention that we don't provide the SOCK_CLOEXEC or SOCK_NONBLOCK defines.
Paul Eggert b4d1637b 2015-06-28T23:43:35 mgetgroups: port to strict OS X * doc/glibc-functions/getgrouplist.texi (getgrouplist): Document the getgrouplist problem. * lib/mgetgroups.c (getgrouplist_gids) [HAVE_GETGROUPLIST]: New macro.

Instead, just use getrlimit, taking care to avoid Cygwin bug. dup2, fcntl: cross-compile better for Android
Paul Eggert 5e2516d4 2015-02-16T21:38:02 getdtablesize, dup2, fcntl: port to Android Problem reported by Kevin Cernekee in: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2015-02/msg00092.html * doc/glibc-functions/getdtablesize.texi (getdtablesize): Mention that getdtablesize doesn't work on Android. * lib/getdtablesize.c: Use getrlimit substitute only if getdtablesize is declared. This should suffice for Cygwin while not breaking Android. * m4/dup2.m4 (gl_FUNC_DUP2): * m4/fcntl.m4 (gl_FUNC_FCNTL): Prefer sysconf (_SC_OPEN_MAX) to getdtablesize, as the former is standardized but the latter is not, and sysconf works on Android. * m4/getdtablesize.m4 (gl_FUNC_GETDTABLESIZE): Also check that getdtablesize is declared. This removes the need for a special case for Android.

Eric Blake fdd1b511 2013-09-26T07:07:07 dup2, dup3: work around another cygwin crasher Cygwin 1.7.25 can crash due to an off-by-one bug on an attempt to duplicate a file into the current RLIMIT_NOFILE soft limit, when that limit is smaller than the hard limit. The intent in the cygwin code was to allow the dup and auto-increase the soft limit, which is itself questionable (and which we work around in the gnulib getdtablesize module); but avoiding the crash is worth doing even if the soft limit semantics are wrong. http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2013-09/msg00397.html http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-developers/2013-q3/msg00010.html * m4/dup2.m4 (gl_FUNC_DUP2): Expose the bug. * m4/dup3.m4 (gl_FUNC_DUP3): Likewise. * tests/test-dup2.c (main): Likewise. * lib/dup2.c (rpl_dup2): Use setdtablesize to avoid it. * lib/dup3.c (dup3): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/dup2.texi (dup2): Document it. * doc/glibc-functions/dup3.texi (dup3): Likewise.

Eric Blake 3bd0d48d 2013-09-26T11:26:29 getdtablesize: work around cygwin issue Cygwin 1.7.25 has a bug that even though it claims to support RLIMIT_NOFILE inheritance, there is no enforcement of the soft limit, and getdtablesize() automatically grows until it reaches the hard limit which cannot be changed by setrlimit(). Best is to just treat things as an invariant limit, as several other modules assume that getdtablesize() will not change without an intervening setrlimit(). * m4/getdtablesize.m4 (gl_FUNC_GETDTABLESIZE): Detect problem. * modules/getdtablesize (configure.ac): Build replacement. * m4/unistd_h.m4 (gl_UNISTD_H_DEFAULTS): Set up a witness. * modules/unistd (Makefile.am): Expose the witness. * lib/unistd.in.h (getdtablesize): Declare replacement. * lib/getdtablesize.c (rpl_getdtablesize): Work around it. * tests/test-getdtablesize.c (main): Test it. * doc/glibc-functions/getdtablesize.texi (getdtablesize): Document it.

Eric Blake 3dbe75e4 2011-06-29T15:46:50 pipe, pipe2: don't corrupt fd on error I noticed a potential subtle double-close bug in libvirt. There, a common idiom is to initialize an int fd[2]={-1,-1}, then have multiple error paths goto common cleanup code. In the cleanup code, the fds are closed if they are not already -1; this works if the error label is reached before the pipe call, or after pipe succeeds, but if it was the pipe call itself that jumped to the error label, then it is relying on failed pipe() not altering the values already in fd array prior to the failure. Our pipe2 replacement violated this assumption, and could leave a non-negative value in the array, which in turn would let libvirt close an already-closed fd, possibly nuking an unrelated fd opened by another thread that happened to get the same value. As a result, I raised a POSIX issue regarding the behavior of pipe on failure: http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=467 Using that test program, I learned that most systems leave fd unchanged on error, but that mingw always assigns -1 into the array. This fixes the mingw pipe() replacement, as well as the gnulib pipe2() replacement. I don't know of any race-free way to work around a cygwin crash: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2011-06/msg00328.html - we could always open() and then close() two fds to guess whether two spare fd still remain before calling pipe(), but that is racy. * lib/pipe.c (pipe): Leave fd unchanged on error. * lib/pipe2.c (pipe2): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/pipe.texi (pipe): Document cygwin issue. * doc/glibc-functions/pipe2.texi (pipe2): Likewise.

To achieve this, m4 relies on the GNU getopt{,_long} extension of a leading '-'. However, BSD getopt fails to honor this extension when POSIXLY_CORRECT.

With this patch, canonicalize-lgpl always provides realpath and canonicalize_file_name, while canonicalize can provide canonicalize_file_name but not realpath; if both modules are in use, canonicalize_file_name comes from the LGPLv2+ sources, but the testing comes from canonicalize. * modules/canonicalize-lgpl (Files): Drop canonicalize.h. (Include): Mention <stdlib.h>. (configure.ac): Mention functions we provide. * modules/canonicalize (configure.ac): Likewise. * m4/canonicalize-lgpl.m4 (gl_CANONICALIZE_LGPL): Always replace realpath if canonicalize_file_name is missing. * m4/stdlib_h.m4 (gl_STDLIB_H_DEFAULTS): Provide defaults. * modules/stdlib (Makefile.am): Substitute witnesses. * lib/stdlib.in.h (canonicalize_file_name, realpath): Declare. * lib/canonicalize-lgpl.c (includes): Adjust accordingly. * lib/canonicalize.h (canonicalize_file_name): Drop declaration. * NEWS: Document this. * doc/glibc-functions/canonicalize_file_name.texi (canonicalize_file_name): Likewise. * doc/posix-functions/realpath.texi (realpath): Likewise. * tests/test-canonicalize-lgpl.c (includes): Use <stdlib.h>.
