Guillem Jover be4aced4 2024-02-11T23:55:40 build: Make almost all exposed interfaces use the new ABI selection Explicitly select what to include as part of the target ABI, instead of letting autoconfiguration potentially break ABI if the system grows functionality provided by the library. Make almost all the library selectable per target. Do not install manual pages for interfaces not included in the library. Control inclusion of symbols in map file via pre-processor macros, and move the comments describing the ABI selection to configure.ac. For now the header files are included as is and filtered through pre-processor conditionals. Eventually they might get switched to be autogenerated at build time.
Guillem Jover 99739877 2024-02-14T04:59:44 build: Rename ABI selection variables from need_ to abi_ This should make the purpose of these variables more clear.
Guillem Jover a81d0b71 2024-02-11T23:55:40 build: Sort variables and their contents in automake files This should make it easier to add new entries, and find them afterwards.
Guillem Jover f8cb9d8b 2024-02-20T03:57:37 build: Remove space before shell redirection This makes it more clear what the redirection applies to.
Guillem Jover 9fab225f 2024-02-17T05:25:01 Split errc family of functions from err ones On most systems the err family of functions is already present, but are missing the errc family of functions, which are also present on some other systems. Splitting them into separate files will make it easer to conditionally include one or the other.
Guillem Jover 461f10ac 2024-02-17T03:07:58 Sync strtoi()/strtou() implementations from NetBSD These contain the fixes to the error handling logic. In NetBSD the manual page for strtou.3 is generated from the strtoi.3 manual page applying some substitutions, the problem is that the cross-references are then lost. We will still keep them separate. Reported-by: Alejandro Colomar <alx@kernel.org>
Guillem Jover 10920c30 2024-02-12T00:06:56 build: Make name_from_id man pages conditional instead of id_from_name The code is only making the name_from_id function conditional, and assumes id_from_name are always to be included, so we need to match the logic for the man page inclusion.
Guillem Jover 97b0fe84 2024-01-08T23:57:45 man: Mention that funopen() can be made available on musl As musl got fopencookie() implemented in 1.1.19, the funopen() function can also be provided there. Note this in the documentation.
Guillem Jover e87ae3be 2024-01-08T23:40:31 man: Fix manual page references When referring to another manual page and their section number, we need to use Xr instead of Fn, otherwise the section number is interpreted as a function argument. For functions provided by libbsd itself we should be using the 3bsd section instead of 3.
Guillem Jover 9275d134 2024-01-08T23:39:19 man: Add closefrom(), strlcpy() and strlcat() as superseded functions These were missing from the list of functions provided by some libc implementation.
Guillem Jover 304a1f83 2024-01-08T23:37:43 doc: Use macOS to refer to the operating system This is the correct spelling, instead of capitalizing it.
Guillem Jover df116b55 2024-01-07T17:43:12 Adjust strlcpy() and strlcat() per glibc adoption These functions were added in glibc 2.38, in anticipation of POSIX adopting them too. Closes: #26
Guillem Jover 9d3e59a0 2023-10-10T01:53:32 man: Use VARIANTS instead of ALTERNATIVES in libbsd(7) Using alternatives seems confusing in this context.
Guillem Jover f02562d6 2023-10-10T01:52:37 man: Markup function references with Xr instead of Fn These references had man page sections in them, so using Fn meant that these appeared as function arguments.

Guillem Jover 5434ba16 2023-04-23T02:05:04 build: Conditionalize wcslcpy() and wcslcat() functions on macOS These functions are provided by the system libc.
Guillem Jover dc1bd1a2 2023-04-23T02:00:10 build: Conditionalize only id-from-name functions not the entire pwcache On macOS the name-from-id functions are present, but not the id-from-name ones, so we want to provide those instead of suppressing the entire file.
Guillem Jover edc746ea 2023-04-22T22:47:10 build: Conditionalize getprogname()/setprogname on macOS These functions are provided by the system libc, so there is no need for us to provide them.
Guillem Jover 21d12b02 2023-04-04T23:59:05 build: On macOS do not build functions provided by the system We have never built before on macOS, so we can exclude all the functions that are currently provided in the system. Closes: #1 Closes: !3
Guillem Jover bc65806c 2023-04-06T23:05:27 build: Select whether to include funopen() in the build system This makes sure we include it when expected, alongside the man pages, and the test cases, and do not accidentally break the ABI if the system starts providing such interface.
Guillem Jover ff46386f 2023-03-29T02:32:37 man: Add HISTORY section to arc4random(3bsd)
Guillem Jover 4c6da577 2023-03-29T02:28:52 man: Switch arc4random(3bsd) man page from OpenBSD to NetBSD This gets rid of the last BSD-4-clause licensed file in the project. The man page will probably need to be adapted to the current implementation, but that can be done piecemeal afterwards. Closes: #7
Guillem Jover 5962e03c 2023-03-03T01:27:31 man: Fix BSD and glibc versions The versions used in the BSD macros are unknown, so they emit warnings, extend or reduce them to use the two digit form. Correct the glibc version when closefrom(3) got introduced.
Guillem Jover 59a21c7f 2023-02-20T00:11:10 man: Update STANDARDS and HISTORY sections Include BSD versions when functions were introduced. Add mention whether these are BSD extensions.
Guilherme Janczak 23377191 2022-12-07T04:06:37 man: Prune unneeded <sys/types.h> include in setproctitle(3) FreeBSD first declared the function in unistd.h in 2000: https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/commit/include/unistd.h?id=9feac5c21886 No other #include line was needed to use the function, but the man page unnecessarily instructed users to include sys/types.h until 2022-11-29: https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/commit/?id=5b6f0a5012e9bc37dcb32b57b41e2443a46da620 libbsd first declared the function in unistd.h in 2010 with commit 3fed78e5b08f78256e533788b4bcd6502b0949d7 and inherited the bug from FreeBSD's man page. No need to do anything for backwards compat. Signed-off-by: Guillem Jover <guillem@hadrons.org>
Guillem Jover e5089628 2022-11-23T23:31:54 build: Do not require funopen() to be ported This function cannot be easily and (more importantly) correctly ported without cooperation from the libc stdio layer. We already document that users should be prepared to have the function not available on some platforms and that they should ideally switch their code to other more portable and better interfaces. Instead of making the build fail, and requiring porters to add exceptions for something that most probably cannot be ported correctly anyway, simply print a warning and let it build. This will not be a regression because on those systems libbsd would have never been built before. Prompted-by: Jens Finkhaeuser <jens@finkhaeuser.de>
Guillem Jover 00b538ff 2022-11-23T23:28:34 build: Terminate lists in variables with «# EOL» This means we can add a trailing «\» to every element, so that they can be removed without requiring modification of other lines, and can be easily sorted. Replace the old usage of $(nil) which could possibly end up with junk added if such variable is ever defined, in the environment.
Guillem Jover 3538d38f 2022-10-06T03:59:33 man: Discourage using the library in non-overlay mode This makes code using it non-portable, and requires the namespeced headers from libbsd, instead of any generic system headers. It also requires more code changes than the overlay mode.
Guillem Jover 28298ac0 2022-10-05T01:35:08 doc: Switch references from pkg-config to pkgconf The former used to be the reference implementation, but it has been stagnant to the point of not showing much signs of life. Switch to the currently active and more complete implementation for references.

Guillem Jover f35c5458 2022-08-03T02:21:16 man: Lowercase man page title While using fully uppercase man page titles has been the usual convention for a very long time, it is rather ugly and something that some other projects are switching away from.
Guillem Jover b466b14a 2022-08-03T01:23:09 man: Document that some arc4random(3) functions are now in glibc 2.36

Guillem Jover 847e682f 2021-02-07T00:09:30 Use libmd hashing function implementations instead of embedding our own This splits the implementation responsibilities, and reduces embedded code copies, which was one of the driving points with this project to start with, so it's nice to give a good example.

Faidon Liambotis 01f0d1ea 2020-12-31T12:46:03 Add recallocarray() and freezero() from OpenBSD Add recallocarray(), introduced in OpenBSD 6.1, and freezero(), introduced in OpenBSD 6.2. The former is imported as-is from OpenBSD, while the latter is the non-malloc-internal branch of the same code (and also the OpenSSH portable variant). Both of these originated in OpenBSD, but have also been implemented by IllumOS, cf. https://www.illumos.org/issues/8546 Documentation for these functions is in malloc(3) upstream, the relevant parts of which were previously imported in reallocarray(3bsd). Update reallocarray(3bsd) with the changes that were introduced since, and add the relevant bits for recallocarray() and freezero(), plus aliases.

Guillem Jover f41fdcf1 2013-10-21T05:07:56 Add funopen() function This is a wrapper over the glibc fopencookie() function. We diverge from the FreeBSD, OpenBSD and DragonFlyBSD declarations, because seekfn() there wrongly uses fpos_t, assuming it's an integral type, and any code using that on a system where fpos_t is a struct (such as GNU-based systems or NetBSD) will fail to build. In which case, as the code has to be modified anyway, we might just as well use the correct declaration.
Guillem Jover c5b95902 2013-07-11T12:25:54 Move setproctitle() automatic initialization to its own library The automatic initialization cannot be part of the main shared library, because there is no thread-safe way to change the environ global variable. This is not a problem if the initializaion happens just at program load time, but becomes one if the shared library is directly or indirectly dlopen()ed during the execution of the program, which could have either kept references to the old environ or could change it in some other thread. This has been observed for example on systems using Samba NSS modules. To avoid any other possible fallout, the constructor is split into a new static library that needs to be linked explicitly into programs using setproctitle(). As an additional safety measure the pkg-config linker flags will mark the program as not allowing to be dlopen()ed so that we avoid the problem described above.
