Use struct stat from NetBSD. It requires adding new STAT, FSTAT and LSTAT
syscalls. Libc modification is both backward and forward compatible.
Also new struct stat uses modern field sizes to avoid ABI
incompatibility, when we update uid_t, gid_t and company.
Exceptions are ino_t and off_t in old libc (though paddings added).
The opendir(3) function was setting errno to ENOTDIR even
when the directory existed and was opened successfully. This
caused git to falsely detect an error.
This change moves the errno assignment into the failure code
block. It also adds a test to test24 to check for errno
changing when opendir(3) returns success.
reverse order to easily support variadic arguments. Thus, instead of
using the proper stdarg.h macros (that nowadays are
compiler-dependent), it may be tempting to directly take the address of
the last argument and considering it as the start of an array. This is
a shortcut that avoid looping to get all the arguments as the CPU
already pushed them on the stack before the call to the function.
Unfortunately, such an assumption is strictly compiler-dependent and
compilers are free to move the last argument on the stack, as a local
variable, and return the address of the location where the argument was
stored, if asked for. This will break things as the rest of the array's
argument are stored elsewhere (typically, a couple of words above the
location where the argument was stored).
This patch fixes the issue by allowing ACK to take the shortcut and
enabling gcc/llvm-gcc to follow the right way.
swapcontext, and makecontext).
- Fix VM to not erroneously think the stack segment and data segment have
collided when a user-space thread invokes brk().
- Add test51 to test ucontext functionality.
- Add man pages for ucontext system calls.
