breaks the dependency between exit/atexit and stdio. Buffers are no longer
flushed on abort() (because it's pretty risky). Move the relevant functions
into sys/core.
em libmon vanished decades ago (or never existed), and also ass appears to have
a different idea of what the em opcodes are to everything else and gets
confused.
*Important:* Do `make clean` to work around a problem and prevent
infinite rebuilds, https://github.com/davidgiven/ack/issues/68
I edit tokens.g in util/LLgen/src, so I regenerate tokens.c. The
regeneration script bootstrap.sh can't find LLgen, but I can run the
same command by typing the path to llgen.
Edit build.lua for programs losing their private assert.h, so they
depend on a list of .h files excluding assert.h.
Remove modules/src/assert; it would be a dependency of cpp.ansi but we
didn't build it, so cpp.ansi uses the libc assert.
I hope that libc <assert.h> can better report failed assertions. Some
old "assert.h" files didn't report the expression. Some reported a
literal "x", because traditional C expanded the macro parameter x in
"x", but ANSI C89 doesn't expand macro parameters in string literals.
This prevents an overflow reported by @hexcoder- in
https://github.com/davidgiven/ack/issues/56
lang/cem/cpp.ansi/LLlex.c used a plain 1 << ... and caused an overflow
on machines where sizeof(int) < sizeof(long). Using 1L << ... would
work for now but might fail later if arith became long long.
C doesn't specify whether negative integers use 2's complement or some
other format. Therefore, (arith) 1 << ... has an undefined value. It
should still work because the value is some integer where the sign bit
is set and all other bits are clear.
(unsigned arith) 1 << ... would also get the sign bit, but casting it
from unsigned back to signed would make the same undefined value.
(arith) -1 << ... would assume 2's complement.
If feof(fp) or ferror(fp) was set, then our libc returned EOF for all
later reads without trying to read. Our libc now behaves like BSD
(and probably Illumos and musl) by checking only feof(fp). For
difference, glibc doesn't check feof(fp).
I described the difference between our libc and BSD libc in
https://sourceforge.net/p/tack/mailman/message/35430300/
@hexcoder- reported in https://github.com/davidgiven/ack/issues/57
that our getpw() has bugs.
I don't fix these bugs, because Illumos and Linux manual pages say
that getpw() is obsolete. The function can overflow its buffer, so it
is never safe to use. Our libc did not build getpw().
