2018-09-12fix issues from public functions defined without declaration visibleRich Felker-0/+2
policy is that all public functions which have a public declaration should be defined in a context where that public declaration is visible, to avoid preventable type mismatches. an audit performed using GCC's -Wmissing-declarations turned up the violations corrected here. in some cases the public header had not been included; in others, a feature test macro needed to make the declaration visible had been omitted. in the case of gethostent and getnetent, the omission seems to have been intentional, as a hack to admit a single stub definition for both functions. this kind of hack is no longer acceptable; it's UB and would not fly with LTO or advanced toolchains. the hack is undone to make exposure of the declarations possible.
2014-02-09clone: make clone a wrapper around __cloneBobby Bingham-0/+19
The architecture-specific assembly versions of clone did not set errno on failure, which is inconsistent with glibc. __clone still returns the error via its return value, and clone is now a wrapper that sets errno as needed. The public clone has also been moved to src/linux, as it's not directly related to the pthreads API. __clone is called by pthread_create, which does not report errors via errno. Though not strictly necessary, it's nice to avoid clobbering errno here.
