I believe this was accidentally broken when the E enum for errno values
was introduces. These functions are quite the special case in that they
return the error value directly rather than returning -1 and passing the
error value through the errno variable.
In any case, using a u16 as the return type at the ABI boundary where a
c_int is expected is asking for trouble.
A pointer type already has an alignment, so this information does not
need to be duplicated on the function type. This already has precedence
with addrspace which is already disallowed on function types for this
reason. Also fixes `@TypeOf(&func)` to have the correct addrspace and
alignment.
* std.c: consolidate some definitions, making them share code. For
example, freebsd, dragonfly, and openbsd can all share the same
`pthread_mutex_t` definition.
* add type safety to std.c.O
- this caught a bug where mode flags were incorrectly passed as the
open flags.
* 3 fewer uses of usingnamespace keyword
* as per convention, remove purposeless field prefixes from struct field
names even if they have those prefixes in the corresponding C code.
* fix incorrect wasi libc Stat definition
* remove C definitions from incorrectly being in std.os.wasi
* make std.os.wasi definitions type safe
* go through wasi native APIs even when linking libc because the libc
APIs are problematic and wasteful
* don't expose WASI definitions in std.posix
* remove std.os.wasi.rights_t.ALL: this is a footgun. should it be all
future rights too? or only all current rights known? both are
the wrong answer.
Most of this migration was performed automatically with `zig fmt`. There
were a few exceptions which I had to manually fix:
* `@alignCast` and `@addrSpaceCast` cannot be automatically rewritten
* `@truncate`'s fixup is incorrect for vectors
* Test cases are not formatted, and their error locations change
The majority of these are in comments, some in doc comments which might
affect the generated documentation, and a few in parameter names -
nothing that should be breaking, however.
There are still a few occurrences of "stage1" in the standard library
and self-hosted compiler source, however, these instances need a bit
more careful inspection to ensure no breakage.
POSIX specifies that the sa_handler field of the sigaction struct may
be set to SIG_IGN or SIG_DFL. However, the current constants in the
standard library use the function pointer signature corresponding to
the sa_sigaction field instead.
This may not cause issues in practice because the fields usually occupy
the same memory in a union, but this isn't required by POSIX and there
may be systems we do not yet support that do this differently.
Fixing this also makes the Zig interface less confusing to use after
reading the man page.
alongside the typical msghdr struct, Zig has added a msghdr_const
type that can be used with sendmsg which allows const data to
be provided. I believe that data pointed to by the iov and control
fields in msghdr are also left unmodified, in which case they can
be marked const as well.
We already have a LICENSE file that covers the Zig Standard Library. We
no longer need to remind everyone that the license is MIT in every single
file.
Previously this was introduced to clarify the situation for a fork of
Zig that made Zig's LICENSE file harder to find, and replaced it with
their own license that required annual payments to their company.
However that fork now appears to be dead. So there is no need to
reinforce the copyright notice in every single file.
