We technically support versions much earlier, possibly dating back to
2018 or earlier, but they're not officially supported since I have no
way of testing them.
Closes#1129
The toolchain will now be downloaded going forward from multiple pinned
URLs which have shasums. Either wget or curl must be installed.
This change unblocks #1053
The `cosmocc` compiler is now being distributed as a self-contained
toolchain that's path-agnostic and it no longer requires you clone the
Cosmop repo to use it. The bin/ folder has been deleted from the mono
repo. The `fatcosmocc` command has been renamed to `cosmocc`. MacOS
support now works very well.
This change fixes bugs in the APE loader. The execve() unit tests are
now enabled for MODE=aarch64. See the README for how you need to have
binfmt_misc configured with Qemu to run them. Apple Silicon bugs have
been fixed too, e.g. tkill() now works.
- Introduce ualarm() function
- Make rename() report EISEMPTY on Windows
- Always raise EINVAL upon open(O_RDONLY|O_TRUNC)
- Add macro so ./configure will detect SOCK_CLOEXEC
- Fix O_TRUNC without O_CREAT not working on Windows
- Let fcntl(F_SETFL) change O_APPEND status on Windows
- Make sure pwrite() / pread() report ESPIPE on sockets
- Raise ESPIPE on Windows when pwrite() is used on pipe
- Properly compute O_APPEND CreateFile() flags on Windows
- Don't require O_DIRECTORY to open directories on Windows
- Fix more instances of Windows reporting EISDIR and ENOTDIR
- Normalize EFTYPE and EMLINK to ELOOP on NetBSD and FreeBSD
- Make unlink() / rmdir() work on read-only files on Windows
- Validate UTF-8 on Windows paths to fix bug with overlong NUL
- Always print signal name to stderr when crashing due to SIG_DFL
- Fix Windows bug where denormalized paths >260 chars didn't work
- Block signals on BSDs when thread exits before trashing its own stack
This new script is an alternative to the `cosmocc` command. It's still a
work in progress. It abstracts all the gory details of building separate
copies of your executable and then running the apelink.com program.
This change ports APE Loader to Linux AARCH64, so that Raspberry Pi
users can run programs like redbean, without the executable needing
to modify itself. Progress has also slipped into this change on the
issue of making progress better conforming to user expectations and
industry standards regarding which symbols we're allowed to declare
This change (1) upgrades to OpenBSD's newer kernel ABIs, and (2)
modifies APE to have a read-only data segment. Doing this required
creating APE Loader v1.1, which is backwards and forwards compatible
with the previous version.
If you've run the following commands in the past to install your APE
Loader systemwide, then you need to run them again. Ad-hoc installations
shouldn't be impacted. It's also recommended that APE binaries be remade
after upgrading, since they embed old versions of the APE Loader.
ape/apeuninstall.sh
ape/apeinstall.sh
This change does more than just fix OpenBSD. The new loader is smarter
and more reliable. We're now able create much tinier ELF and Mach-O data
structures than we could before. Both APE Loader and execvpe() will now
normalize ambiguous argv[0] resolution the same way as the UNIX shell.
Badness with TLS linkage has been solved.
Fixes#826
All tests pass now under WSL2. They should pass under WSL1 too, but only
WSL2 is integrated into the test fleet right now. This change also fills
in some gaps in the error numbers.
Fixes#665
Doing this makes binaries tinier, since we don't need to have all the
extra code for supporting a 32-bit address space. It also benefits us
because we're able to use WIN32 futexes, which makes locking simpler.
b69f3d2488 is what officially ended our
Windows 7 support. This change is merely a formalization. You can use
old versions of Cosmo now and forevermore if you need Windows 7 since
our repository is hermetic and vendors all its dependencies.
Won't fix#617
We had previously not enabled TLS in MODE=tiny in order to keep the
smallest example programs (e.g. life.com) just 16kb in size. But it
was error prone doing that, so now we just always enable it because
this change uses hacks to ensure it won't increase life.com's size.
This change also fixes a bug on NetBSD, where signal handlers would
break thread local storage if SA_SIGINFO was being used. This looks
like it might be a bug in NetBSD, but it's got a simple workaround.
- Introduce __assert_disable global
- Improve strsignal() thread safety
- Make system call tracing thread safe
- Fix SO_RCVTIMEO / SO_SNDTIMEO on Windows
- Refactor DescribeFoo() functions into one place
- Fix fork() on Windows when TLS and MAP_STACK exist
- Round upwards in setsockopt(SO_RCVTIMEO) on Windows
- Disable futexes on OpenBSD which seem extremely broken
- Implement a better kludge for monotonic time on Windows
These releases are really exciting since they contained the patches we
worked to get upstreamed. It means that their /bin/sh interpreters all
work fine with Actually Portable Executable now.
- Fix some minor issues in ar.com
- Have execve() look for `ape` command
- Rewrite NT paths using /c/ rather /??/c:/
- Replace broken GCC symlinks with .sym files
- Rewrite $PATH environment variables on startup
- Make $(APE_NO_MODIFY_SELF) the default bootloader
- Add all build command dependencies to build/bootstrap
- Get the repository mostly building from source on non-Linux
- Implement openpty()
- Add `--assimilate` flag to APE bootloader
- Restore Linux vDSO clock_gettime() support
- Use `$(APE_NO_MODIFY_SELF)` on more programs
