The function is exposed in libc headers provided by Genode, the code for
the function is being compiled and actually works, but the symbol is
missing from the symbols file resulting in linking failures. Add it to
the libc symbols file.

The new implementation relieves the main entrypoint from monitor jobs
for contended lock primitives and is based on custom applicant data
structures, per-lock resp. per-semaphore applicant lists, and a
libc-internal blockade with timeouts based on libc kernel primitives.
Generated a separate 'config.h' for arm, arm_64, x86_32, x86_64 for the
current version (6.1.2) of GMP. This became necessary because
configurations differ for each architecture.
'config.h' generaton on x86_64 host in'gmp-6.1.2' directory:
for x86_64 (native):
! configure
for x86_32:
! configure --host=x86-pc-linux-gnu --build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
for arm:
! configure --host=arm-linux-gnu --build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu \
! CC=/usr/local/gcc-linaro-arm/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc ABI=32
for arm_v8:
! configure --host=aarch64-linux-gnu --build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu \
! CC=/usr/local/gcc-linaro/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc ABI=64
issue #3598
The libc monitor facility enables the execution of monitor jobs by the
main thread when the monitor pool was charged. In comparison to the
current suspend/resume_all mechanism the main thread iterates over all
job functions in contrast to waking up all threads to check their
conditions by themselves. Threads are only woken up if the completion
condition was met.
This commit is the result of a collaboration with Christian Prochaska.
Many thanks for your support, Christian.
Fixes#3550
sleep(), usleep(), and nanosleep() now return immediately on
zero-timeout. Also, non-zero timeouts sleep at least 1 ms (the current
minimal timeout in libc), which compensates rounding errors.
Issue #3550
If the suspend method for the main thread detects that the suspend
condition is false it must return the passed timeout value (not always
0). Otherwise, the caller may incorrectly assume the timeout expired.
Incoming ACK packets for sent data packets may be the only unblocker for
suspended write/send loops. This patch informs VFS users about I/O of
VFS handle on successfully sent packets.
Store errno in pthread objects, return member upon call to '__error()'.
This became necessary in order to make errno thread-safe.
Note, any call to libc code from a non-pthread (beside the first
entrypoint) is not supported.
issue #3568
This is important to issue sync requests for written-to files.
As the closing must be performed by an atexit handler, it happens at a
time _after_ libc plugins are destructed. Consequently an FD allocated
by such a plugin results in a close error, which in turn, does not
destruct the FD. We ultimatedly end up in an infinte loop of
re-attempting the close. For this reason, the patch changes 'close' to
be robust against this special case.
This is generally not a problem because libc plugins are phased out.
However, at present, the libc_noux plugin is still important. With the
changed 'close' in place, there occurred an error message "Error: close:
close not implemented" at the exit of each noux program. This patch
removes the error printing from the libc plugin mechansim to avoid this
noise. The error messages are not important anyway because the
deprecation of the libc plugin interface.
Issue #3578
The getpeername function is provided only by the socket fs.
In the case where the socket fs is not configured, return an appropriate
errno instead probing for a libc plugin (there is none).
Issue #3578
- Close FDs marked with the close-on-execve flag
(needed for 'make', which sets the flag for the pipe-in
FD of forked children)
- Update binary name on execve to use as ROM for subsequent fork
- Enable vfork as an alias for fork (needed by make)
- Purge line buffers for output streams during execve because they
may be allocated at the allocation heap, which does not survive
the execve call.
- Consider short-lived processes that may exit while the parent still
blocks in the fork call.
With these changes, the website generator of genodians.org works without
the need for the Noux runtime.
Issue #3578
fd > FD_SETSIZE cannot use 'select' or 'poll' within our libc.
Therefore, we added a bit allocator in order to allocate fd < FD_SETSIZE
(1024).
