change all kinds of setup references to "the Cygwin Setup program";
emphasize 64 bit and deemphasize 32 bit;
update options list;
explain why installing everything is now extremely inadvisable, with stats
|
|
Add --nokill option to dumper, for compatibility with minidumper, and to
assist with testing.
|
|
Use the (undocumented) MEMORY_WORKING_SET_EX_INFORMATION in dumper to
determine if a MEM_IMAGE region is unsharable, and hence has been
modified.
After this, we will end up dumping memory regions where:
- state is MEM_COMMIT (i.e. is not MEM_RESERVE or MEM_FREE), and
-- type is MEM_PRIVATE and protection allows reads (i.e. not a guardpage), or
-- type is MEM_IMAGE and attribute is non-sharable (i.e. it was WC, got
written to, and is now a RW copy)

Windows Explorer shows a warning with Cygwin-created DACLs, but putting
the text of the warning into Google doesn't lead to the relevant Cygwin
docs. Let's copy the warning text into the docs in the hopes of helping
confused users. Most of the credit for the wording belongs to Yaakov
Selkowitz.

The implicit assumption seemed to be that any subsequent occurence of
the same setting in nsswitch.conf is supposed to rewrite the previous
ones completely. This was not the case if the third or any further
schema was previously defined and the last line defined less than that
(but at least 2), for example:
```
db_home: windows cygwin /myhome/%U
db_home: cygwin desc
```
Let's document this behavior as well.

The descriptions of symlink handling are a bit dated, so
revamp them and add the new WSL symlink type.
Signed-off-by: Corinna Vinschen <corinna@vinschen.de>
|
|
WSL symlinks are reparse points containing a POSIX path in UTF-8.
On filesystems supporting reparse points, use this symlink type.
On other filesystems, or in case of error, fall back to the good
old plain SYSTEM file.

Treat WSL symlinks just like other symlinks. Convert

/mnt/<driveletter> to Windows-style paths <driveletter>:

Create/remove the Start Menu directory as needed/possible
Correctly use that directory when making shortcuts

- For programs which does not work properly with pseudo console,
disable_pcon in environment CYGWIN is introduced. If disable_pcon
is set, pseudo console support is disabled.

This patch supplies an implementation of the CPU_SET(3) processor
affinity macros as documented on the relevant Linux man page.
There is a mostly superset implementation of cpusets under newlib's
libc/sys/RTEMS/include/sys that has Linux and FreeBSD compatibility
and is built on top of FreeBSD bitsets. This Cygwin implementation
and the RTEMS one could be combined if desired at some future point.

This patch set implements the Linux syscalls sched_getaffinity,
sched_setaffinity, pthread_getaffinity_np, and pthread_setaffinity_np.
Linux has a straightforward view of the cpu sets used in affinity masks.
They are simply long (1024-bit) bit masks. This code emulates that view
while internally dealing with Windows' distribution of available CPUs among
processor groups.

libX11 provides <X11/Xlocale.h>. The build of libX11 itself adds
include/X11 to the compiler's include path. This results in a name
collision with /usr/include/xlocale.h on case-insensitive filesystems.
Commit 90e35b1eb3df renamed sys/_locale.h to xlocale.h in March 2017 under
the assumption that we should provide the locale_t type in the same file
as on Linux, FreeBSD, and Darwin.
A few weeks later (June 2017), glibc removed the xlocale.h file in favor
of bits/types/locale_t.h, which shouldn't be included directly anyway.
For reference and the reasoning, see
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=commit;h=f0be25b6336d
Given the above, revert 90e35b1eb3df4070e68afc5e7060665214d586be and
fix additional usage of xlocale.h.

- feenableexcept,fedisableexcept, fegetexcept are GNU-only
- fegetprec, fesetprec are Solaris, use __MISC_VISIBLE
- _feinitialise is Cygwin-internal only
- Replace self-named FP precision values to values from
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22//WG14/www/docs/n752.htm
as used by Solaris.
- Change return value of fesetprec to adhere to the above document

- Document fegetprec, fesetprec as Solaris functions, not as GNU
functions

disappearing diretories and files, file not found, etc.
