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.
