maintainer's note: past sentiment was that, despite being imperfect
and unable to force clearing of all possible copies of sensitive data
(e.g. in registers, register spills, signal contexts left on the
stack, etc.) this function would be added if major implementations
agreed on it, which has happened -- several BSDs and glibc all include
it.

adapted from patch by Matthias Schiffer.
|
|
memfd_create was added in linux v3.17 and glibc has api for it.
|
|
mlock2 syscall was added in linux v4.4 and glibc has api for it.
It falls back to mlock in case of flags==0, so that case works
even on older kernels.
MLOCK_ONFAULT is moved under _GNU_SOURCE following glibc.

commit d93c0740d86aaf7043e79b942a6c0b3f576af4c8 added use of feature
test macros without including features.h, causing a definition that
should be exposed in the default profile, TSVTX, to appear only when
_XOPEN_SOURCE or higher is explicitly defined.
|
|
standing alone, both the signed and int keywords identify the same
type, a (signed) int. however the C language has an exception where,
when the lone keyword int is used to declare a bitfield, it's
implementation-defined whether the bitfield is signed or unsigned. C11
footnote 125 extends this implementation-definedness to typedefs, and
DR#315 extends it to other integer types (for which support with
bitfields is implementation-defined).
while reasonable ABIs (all the ones we support) define bitfields as
signed by default, GCC and compatible compilers offer an option
-funsigned-bitfields to change the default. while any signed types
defined without explicit use of the signed keyword are affected, the
stdint.h types, especially intNN_t, have a natural use in bitfields.
ensure that bitfields defined with these types always have the correct
signedness regardless of compiler & flags used.
see also GCC PR 83294.

this must have been taken from POSIX without realizing that it was
meaningless. the resolution to Austin Group issue #844 removed it from
the standard.
|
|
the F_* macros associated with the lockf function are XSI-shaded (like
the lockf function itself) and should only be exposed when the
function is.
|
|
TSVTX is XSI-shaded.
|
|
PAGE_SIZE, NZERO, and NL_LANGMAX are XSI-shaded.
|
|
PAGESIZE is actually the version defined in POSIX base, with PAGE_SIZE
being in the XSI option. use PAGESIZE as the underlying definition to
facilitate making exposure of PAGE_SIZE conditional.
|
|
add a member of appropriate type to the fpos_t union so that accesses
are well-defined. use long long instead of off_t since off_t is not
always exposed in stdio.h and there's no namespace-clean alias for it.
access is still performed using pointer casts rather than by naming
the union member as a matter of style; to the extent possible, the
naming of fields in opaque types defined in the public headers is not
treated as an API contract with the implementation. access via the
pointer cast is valid as long as the union has a member of matching
type.

based loosely on patch by Hauke Mehrtens; converted to wrap the public
API of the underlying getrandom function rather than direct syscalls,
so that if/when a fallback implementation of getrandom is added it
will automatically get picked up by getentropy too.
|
|
This syscall is available since Linux 3.17 and was also implemented in
glibc in version 2.25 using the same interfaces.

*_HUGE_SHIFT, *_HUGE_2MB, *_HUGE_1GB are documented in the man page,
so add all of the *_HUGE_* macros from linux uapi.
if MAP_HUGETLB is set, top bits of the mmap flags encode the page size.
see the linux commit aafd4562dfee81a40ba21b5ea3cf5e06664bc7f6
if SHM_HUGETLB is set, top bits of the shmget flags encode the page size.
see the linux commit 4da243ac1cf6aeb30b7c555d56208982d66d6d33
*_HUGE_16GB is defined unsigned to avoid signed left shift ub.

With Linux kernel 4.16 it will be possible to guard more parts of the
Linux header files from a libc. Make use of this in musl to guard all
the structures and other definitions from the Linux header files which
are also defined by the header files provided by musl. This will make
it possible to compile source files which include both the libc
headers and the kernel userspace headers.
This extends the definitions done in commit 04983f227238 ("make
netinet/in.h suppress clashing definitions from kernel headers")

stdio types use the struct tag names from glibc libio to match C++
ABI.

notes added by maintainer:
this function is a GNU extension. it was chosen over the similar BSD
function funopen because the latter depends on fpos_t being an
arithmetic type as part of its public API, conflicting with our
definition of fpos_t and with the intent that it be an opaque type. it
was accepted for inclusion because, despite not being widely used, it
is usually very difficult to extricate software using it from the
dependency on it.
calling pattern for the read and write callbacks is not likely to
match glibc or other implementations, but should work with any
reasonable callbacks. in particular the read function is never called
without at least one byte being needed to satisfy its caller, so that
spurious blocking is not introduced.
contracts for what callbacks called from inside libc/stdio can do are
always complicated, and at some point still need to be specified
explicitly. at the very least, the callbacks must return or block
indefinitely (they cannot perform nonlocal exits) and they should not
make calls to stdio using their own FILE as an argument.
