* General further adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.Pedro F. Giffuni2017-11-201-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license. The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way, superceed or replace the license texts. Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a starting point. Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=326025
* Switch libc from using _sig{procmask,action,suspend} symbols, whichKonstantin Belousov2015-08-291-9/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | are aliases for the syscall stubs and are plt-interposed, to the libc-private aliases of internally interposed sigprocmask() etc. Since e.g. _sigaction is not interposed by libthr, calling signal() removes thr_sighandler() from the handler slot etc. The result was breaking signal semantic and rtld locking. The added __libc_sigprocmask and other symbols are hidden, they are not exported and cannot be called through PLT. The setjmp/longjmp functions for x86 were changed to use direct calls, and since PIC_PROLOGUE only needed for functional PLT indirection on i386, it is removed as well. The PowerPC bug of calling the syscall directly in the setjmp/longjmp implementation is kept as is.

* Fix known issues which blow up the process after dlopen("libthr.so")Konstantin Belousov2015-01-031-3/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (or loading a dso linked to libthr.so into process which was not linked against threading library). - Remove libthr interposers of the libc functions, including __error(). Instead, functions calls are indirected through the interposing table, similar to how pthread stubs in libc are already done. Libc by default points either to syscall trampolines or to existing libc implementations. On libthr load, libthr rewrites the pointers to the cancellable implementations already in libthr. The interposition table is separate from pthreads stubs indirection table to not pull pthreads stubs into static binaries. - Postpone the malloc(3) internal mutexes initialization until libthr is loaded. This avoids recursion between calloc(3) and static pthread_mutex_t initialization. - Reinstall signal handlers with wrapper on libthr load. The _rtld_is_dlopened(3) is used to avoid useless calls to sigaction(2) when libthr is statically referenced from the main binary. In the process, fix openat(2), swapcontext(2) and setcontext(2) interposing. The libc symbols were exported at different versions than libthr interposers. Export both libc and libthr versions from libc now, with default set to the higher version from libthr. Remove unused and disconnected swapcontext(3) userspace implementation from libc/gen.

* system(): Restore behaviour for SIGINT and SIGQUIT.Jilles Tjoelker2013-09-011-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As mentioned in r16117 and the book "Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment" by W. Richard Stevens, we should ignore SIGINT and SIGQUIT before forking, since it is not guaranteed that the parent process starts running soon enough. To avoid calling sigaction() in the vforked child, instead block SIGINT and SIGQUIT before vfork() and keep the sigaction() to ignore after vfork(). The FreeBSD kernel discards ignored signals, even if they are blocked; therefore, it is not necessary to unblock SIGINT and SIGQUIT earlier. Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=255129
* vfork(2) was listed as deprecated in 1994 (r1573) and was the falsePeter Wemm2013-08-131-19/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | reports of its impending demise were removed in 2009 (r199257). However, in 1996 (r16117) system(3) was switched from vfork(2) to fork(2) based partly on this. Switch back to vfork(2). This has a dramatic effect in cases of extreme mmap use - such as excessive abuse (500+) of shared libraries. popen(3) has used vfork(2) for a while. vfork(2) isn't going anywhere.

* Remove _THREAD_SAFE and make libc thread-safe by default byDaniel Eischen2001-01-241-11/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | adding (weak definitions to) stubs for some of the pthread functions. If the threads library is linked in, the real pthread functions will pulled in. Use the following convention for system calls wrapped by the threads library: __sys_foo - actual system call _foo - weak definition to __sys_foo foo - weak definition to __sys_foo Change all libc uses of system calls wrapped by the threads library from foo to _foo. In order to define the prototypes for _foo(), we introduce namespace.h and un-namespace.h (suggested by bde). All files that need to reference these system calls, should include namespace.h before any standard includes, then include un-namespace.h after the standard includes and before any local includes. <db.h> is an exception and shouldn't be included in between namespace.h and un-namespace.h namespace.h will define foo to _foo, and un-namespace.h will undefine foo. Try to eliminate some of the recursive calls to MT-safe functions in libc/stdio in preparation for adding a mutex to FILE. We have recursive mutexes, but would like to avoid using them if possible. Remove uneeded includes of <errno.h> from a few files. Add $FreeBSD$ to a few files in order to pass commitprep. Approved by: -arch Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=71579

* Simplify sytem call renaming. Instead of _foo() <-- _libc_foo <-- foo(),Jason Evans2000-01-271-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | just use _foo() <-- foo(). In the case of a libpthread that doesn't do call conversion (such as linuxthreads and our upcoming libpthread), this is adequate. In the case of libc_r, we still need three names, which are now _thread_sys_foo() <-- _foo() <-- foo(). Convert all internal libc usage of: aio_suspend(), close(), fsync(), msync(), nanosleep(), open(), fcntl(), read(), and write() to _foo() instead of foo(). Remove all internal libc usage of: creat(), pause(), sleep(), system(), tcdrain(), wait(), and waitpid(). Make thread cancellation fully POSIX-compliant.
