a34817457f Improve the _FILE_OFFSET_BITS docs and link to them.
We're still seeing lots of confusion. People do seem to look as far as
the headers, but stop there. So let's try a bit harder to point them in
the right direction.

Also explicitly state that removing _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 is the
behavior-preserving fix for compilation problems when upgrading to NDK
r15 or later.

c8a2612ffc Merge "Implement pthread_attr_getinheritsched/pthread_attr_setinheritsched." 2017-10-26 16:12:04 +00:00
Elliott Hughes
8aecba7aa6 Implement pthread_attr_getinheritsched/pthread_attr_setinheritsched.
Historically, Android defaulted to EXPLICIT but with a special case
because SCHED_NORMAL/priority 0 was awkward. Because the code couldn't
actually tell whether SCHED_NORMAL/priority 0 was a genuine attempt to
explicitly set those attributes (because the parent thread is SCHED_FIFO,
say) or just because the pthread_attr_t was left at its defaults.

Now we support INHERIT, we could call sched_getscheduler to see whether
we actually need to call sched_setscheduler, but since the major cost
is the fixed syscall overhead, we may as well just conservatively
call sched_setscheduler and let the kernel decide whether it's a
no-op. (Especially because we'd then have to add both sched_getscheduler
and sched_setscheduler to any seccomp filter.)

Platform code (or app code that only needs to support >= P) can actually
add a call to pthread_attr_setinheritsched to say that they just want
to inherit (if they know that none of their threads actually mess with
scheduler attributes at all), which will save them a sched_setscheduler
call except in the doubly-special case of SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK (which we
do handle).

An alternative would be "make pthread_attr_setschedparams and
pthread_attr_setschedprio set EXPLICIT and change the platform default
to INHERIT", but even though I can only think of weird pathological
examples where anyone would notice that change, that behavior -- of
pthread_attr_setschedparams/pthread_attr_setschedprio overriding an
earlier call to pthread_attr_setinheritsched -- isn't allowed by POSIX
(whereas defaulting to EXPLICIT is).

If we have a lot of trouble with this change in the app compatibility
testing phase, though, we'll want to reconsider this decision!

 -*-

This change also removes a comment about setting the scheduler attributes
in main_thread because we'd have to actually keep them up to date,
and it's not clear that doing so would be worth the trouble.

Also make async_safe_format_log preserve errno so we don't have to be
so careful around it.

    5.  Advice to New Applications Employing TCP

Applications that think they want to do these tricksy things should be
referred to section 3.4, wherein it's noted that these semantics are
effectively dead and it's middleboxes what killed 'em:

    3.4.  Interaction of Middleboxes with TCP Urgent Indications

      As a result of the publication of Network Intrusion Detection System
      (NIDS) evasion techniques based on TCP urgent indications [phrack],
      some middleboxes clear the urgent indications by clearing the URG
      flag and setting the Urgent Pointer to zero.  This causes the "urgent
      data" to become "in line" (that is, accessible by the read(2) call or
      the recv(2) call without the MSG_OOB flag) in the case of those TCP
      implementations that interpret the TCP urgent mechanism as a facility
      for delivering "out-of-band" data (as described in Section 3.1).  An
      example of such a middlebox is the Cisco PIX firewall [Cisco-PIX].
      This should discourage applications from depending on urgent
      indications for their correct operation, as urgent indications may
      not be reliable in the current Internet.

01a57d1eb6 Call fmtmsg/getdate/getdate_err useless.
They're POSIX, and they're implemented in iOS and glibc, but they're
not actually used in any codebase I have access to. They're *defined*
in several places, and some of those places have a handful of tests,
but I couldn't find a single genuine caller.

5033918092 Complete <netdb.h>.
Add all the missing <netdb.h> functions.

Also fix getservbyport to handle a null protocol correctly.

Also fix getservbyname/getservbyport to not interfere with getservent.

Also fix endservent to reset getservent iteration.

Also reduce unnecessary differences from upstream NetBSD sethostent.c.

The servent implementation is still horrific, and we should
probably support protoent too so that debugging tools can use
getprotobyname/getprotobynumber.
