* `comptime const` is redundant
* don't use `extern enum`; specify a tag type.
`extern enum` is only when you need tags to alias. But aliasing tags
is a smell. I will be making a proposal shortly to remove `extern enum`
from the language.
* there is no such thing as `packed enum`.
* instead of `catch |_|`, omit the capture entirely.
* unused function definition with missing parameter name
* using `try` outside of a function or test
* Truncate user and group ids
Calls to `getuid`, `getgid` and their `eid` variants fail to compile on
64bit Linux systems because the return value of the syscall is of
`usize` and needs to be truncated to fit the size of `uid_t` that is 32
bit.
Thanks to @FireFox317 for figuring this out in Zig's Discord channel!
* Add a regression test for user and group ids
* Replace @truncate with @intCast
This should be safe because `uid_t` will be 32-bit.
* Add missing import for getauxval
* Add missing package names
* Revert "Add missing import for getauxval"
This reverts commit 38f93dc89e.
* Skip user and group test if builtin.link_libc
Everybody gets what they want!
* AT_RANDOM is completely ignored.
* On Linux, MADV_WIPEONFORK is used to provide fork safety.
* On pthread systems, `pthread_atfork` is used to provide fork safety.
* For systems that do not have the capability to provide fork safety,
the implementation falls back to calling getrandom() every time.
* If madvise is unavailable or returns an error, or pthread_atfork
fails for whatever reason, it falls back to calling getrandom() every
time.
* Applications may choose to opt-out of fork safety.
* Applications may choose to opt-in to unconditionally calling
getrandom() for every call to std.crypto.random.fillFn.
* Added `std.meta.globalOption`.
* Added `std.os.madvise` and related bits.
* Bumped up the size of the main thread TLS buffer. See the comment
there for justification.
* Simpler hot path in TLS initialization.
fork() on Linux/sparc64 seems to return its result in two registers,
with %o0 always holding the current process' PID, and the parent/child
status returned in %o1. Add some glue code to convert those into
the libc-style return value.
There's no guarantee for the kernel definition to be ABI compatible with
the libc one (and vice versa).
There's also no guarantee of ABI compatibility between musl/glibc.
Fun, isn't it?
Both `offset` and `len` are `off_t`.
Like the rest of the std lib we assume that `_FILE_OFFSET_BITS == 64`
is always true, so that `off_t` is a `u64`.
When passing to 32-bit kernels, we split these into two `u32`
parameters.
std.os.accept already wants to allow null, which matches `man 3p accept`:
> address Either a null pointer, or a pointer to a sockaddr structure
> where the address of the connecting socket shall be re‐
> turned.
>
> address_len Either a null pointer, if address is a null pointer, or a

> specifies the length of the stored address.
Fixes ziglang#6832.
