Wrapper around readdir.c. * dirent/dirent.h: Add prototype for readdir_r. * misc/hsearch_r.c (ENTRY): Make field `used' of type `unsigned int' to prevent warnings. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/getsysstats.c (get_proc_path): Initialize `result'. Sat Sep 28 01:16:42 1996 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com> * sysdeps/generic/strsep.c: Rename to __strsep and make strsep weak alias. * string/string.h: Add prototype for __strsep. * misc/mntent_r.c: Use __strsep instead of strsep to keep namespace clean. * sysdeps/stub/nanosleep.c: Rename to __libc_nanosleep and make __nanosleep and nanosleep weak aliases. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list: Add __nanosleep as weak alias. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sleep.c: Call __nanosleep instead of nanosleep to keep namespace clean. * sysdeps/posix/ttyname.c (ttyname): Add cast to prevent warning. * sysdeps/posix/ttyname_r.c (ttyname_r): Likewise. * sysdeps/posix/getcwd.c (__getcwd): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/nlist.c: Use ISO C definition since we don't always have prototype. * login/Makefile (headers): Add pty.h. * login/pty.h: New file. * sysdeps/generic/pty.h: Include <pty.h>. * login/pututline_r.c: Add cast to prevent warning. * gmon/gmon.c: Add prototype for __profile_frequency.

Sat Sep 28 00:11:08 1996 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com> * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list: Add weak alias `adjtimex'. Set caller for mlock, mlockall, mremap, munlock, and munlockall to EXTRA. Reported by Matthias Urlichs <smurf@smurf.noris.de>. 1996-09-27 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com> * strftime.c (strftime): Output incomplete formats like %E at end of string. 1996-09-27 Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com> * strftime.c (strftime): Add support for %EC and %Ey. Fix support for %EY. This uses the new _nl_get_era_entry function. Fri Sep 27 14:12:27 1996 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@cygnus.com> Security related patch by Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com> and David Holland <dholland@eecs.harvard.edu>. * inet/rexec.c (rexec): Increase size of `num' array from 8 to 32. * inet/ruserpass.c (ruserpass): Don't allow $HOME envvar to not exist. * sysdeps/generic/getenv.c (__secure_getenv): New function.

Make temporary file handling functions reentrant. * stdio-common/tmpnam.c: Rewrite to have own buffer to write result to. The called __stdio_gen_tempname function must be thread safe. * stdio-common/tmpnam_r.c: New file. * stdio/stdio.h: Add prototype for `tmpnam_r'. Change prototype for __stdio_gen_tempname. * stdio/libio.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/posix/tempname.c: Add new parameters and use them instead of static buffer. Don't reset `indeces' when PID changed between calls. Don't fail for long running programs when index counter once reached the limit. * sysdeps/stub/tempname.c: Likewise. * stdio-common/tempnam.c: Provide local buffer as extra argument to __stdio_gen_tempname. This makes this function reentrant. * stdio-common/tmpfile.c: Likewise. * stdio-common/temptest.c: Provide extra argument to __stdio_gen_tempname. * manual/filesys.texi: Describe tmpnam_r and add comments about reentrancy of the functions. * inet/rcmd.c: Fixed address length handling. * sysdeps/posix/mk-stdiolim.c: Count final \0 byte in L_tmpnam value. * time/strftime.c: Remove unused variables alt_digits and end_alt_digits. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sys/sysinfo.h: Correct prototype names for get_nprocs and get_nprocs_conf. * sysdeps/generic/sys/sysinfo.h: Likewise. * stdlib/test-canon.c: Finally do the right fix. * misc/Makefile: Only compile force-wrapper when compiling reentrant libc.
This directory contains the version 1.94 test release of the GNU C Library. Many bugs have been fixed since the last release. Some bugs surely remain. As of this release, the GNU C library is known to run on the following configurations: *-*-gnu GNU Hurd i[3456]86-*-linux Linux-2.0 on Intel m68k-*-linux Linux-2.0 on Motorola 680x0 alpha-*-linux Linux-2.0 on DEC Alpha Former releases of this library (version 1.09.1 and perhaps earlier versions) used to run on the following configurations: alpha-dec-osf1 i[3456]86-*-bsd4.3 i[3456]86-*-isc2.2 i[3456]86-*-isc3 i[3456]86-*-sco3.2 i[3456]86-*-sco3.2v4 i[3456]86-*-sysv i[3456]86-*-sysv4 i[3456]86-force_cpu386-none i[3456]86-sequent-bsd i960-nindy960-none m68k-hp-bsd4.3 m68k-mvme135-none m68k-mvme136-none m68k-sony-newsos3 m68k-sony-newsos4 m68k-sun-sunos4 mips-dec-ultrix4 mips-sgi-irix4 sparc-sun-solaris2 sparc-sun-sunos4 Whether this is still true for this release is unknown. Porting the library is not hard. If you are interested in doing a port, please get on the mailing list by sending electronic mail to bug-glibc-request@prep.ai.mit.edu. The GNU C library now includes Michael Glad's Ultra Fast Crypt, which provides the Unix `crypt' function, plus some other entry points. Because of the United States export restriction on DES implementations, we are distributing this code separately from the rest of the C library. There is an extra distribution tar file just for crypt; it is called `glibc-1.94-crypt.tar.gz'. You can just unpack the crypt distribution along with the rest of the C library and build; you can also build the library without getting crypt. Users outside the USA can get the crypt distribution via anonymous FTP from ftp.uni-c.dk [129.142.6.74], or another archive site outside the USA. Archive maintainers are encouraged to copy this distribution to their archives outside the USA. Please get it from ftp.uni-c.dk; transferring this distribution from prep.ai.mit.edu (or any other site in the USA) to a site outside the USA is in violation of US export laws. See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, install, and port the GNU C library. The GNU C Library is completely documented by the Texinfo manual found in the `manual/' subdirectory. The manual is still being updated and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like. Please send comments on the manual to bug-glibc-manual@prep.ai.mit.edu, and not to the library bug-reporting address. The file NOTES contains a description of the feature-test macros used in the GNU C library, explaining how you can tell the library what facilities you want it to make available. Send bug reports to bug-glibc@prep.ai.mit.edu. The GNU C Library is free software. See the file COPYING.LIB for copying conditions.
