2022-10-19remove LFS64 symbol aliases; replace with dynamic linker remappingRich Felker-1/+0
originally the namespace-infringing "large file support" interfaces were included as part of glibc-ABI-compat, with the intent that they not be used for linking, since our off_t is and always has been unconditionally 64-bit and since we usually do not aim to support nonstandard interfaces when there is an equivalent standard interface. unfortunately, having the symbols present and available for linking caused configure scripts to detect them and attempt to use them without declarations, producing all the expected ill effects that entails. as a result, commit 2dd8d5e1b8ba1118ff1782e96545cb8a2318592c was made to prevent this, using macros to redirect the LFS64 names to the standard names, conditional on _GNU_SOURCE or _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE. however, this has turned out to be a source of further problems, especially since g++ defines _GNU_SOURCE by default. in particular, the presence of these names as macros breaks a lot of valid code. this commit removes all the LFS64 symbols and replaces them with a mechanism in the dynamic linker symbol lookup failure path to retry with the spurious "64" removed from the symbol name. in the future, if/when the rest of glibc-ABI-compat is moved out of libc, this can be removed.
2019-07-16use namespace-safe __lseek for __stdio_seek instead of direct syscallRich Felker-2/+3
this probably saves a few bytes, avoids duplicating the clunky lseek/_llseek syscall convention in two places, and sets the stage for fixing broken seeks on x32 and mipsn32.
2018-09-12remove spurious inclusion of libc.h for LFS64 ABI aliasesRich Felker-2/+1
the LFS64 macro was not self-documenting and barely saved any characters. simply use weak_alias directly so that it's clear what's being done, and doesn't depend on a header to provide a strange macro.
2011-04-06consistency: change all remaining syscalls to use SYS_ rather than __NR_ prefixRich Felker-1/+1
2011-03-20global cleanup to use the new syscall interfaceRich Felker-2/+2
2011-02-13cleaning up syscalls in preparation for x86_64 portRich Felker-7/+6
- hide all the legacy xxxxxx32 name cruft in syscall.h so the actual source files can be clean and uniform across all archs. - cleanup llseek/lseek and mmap2/mmap handling for 32/64 bit systems - alternate implementation for nice if the target lacks nice syscall
