open pidfd in child process and send to the parent via SOCK_SEQPACKET+CMSG
This avoids using `clone3` when a pidfd is requested while still getting it in a 100% race-free manner by passing it up from the child process.
This should solve most concerns in #82971
Make ExitStatus implement Default
And, necessarily, make it inhabited even on platforms without processes.
I noticed while preparing https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3362 that there was no way for anyone to construct an `ExitStatus`.
This would be insta-stable so needs an FCP.
Allow blocking `Command::output`
### Problem
Currently, `Command::output` is internally implemented using `Command::spawn`. This is problematic because some targets (like UEFI) do not actually support multitasking and thus block while the program is executing. This coupling does not make much sense as `Command::output` is supposed to block until the execution is complete anyway and thus does not need to rely on a non-blocking `Child` or any other intermediate.
### Solution
This PR moves the implementation of `Command::output` to `std::sys`. This means targets can choose to implement only `Command::output` without having to implement `Command::spawn`.
### Additional Information
This was originally conceived when working on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/100316. Currently, the only target I know about that will benefit from this change is UEFI.
This PR can also be used to implement more efficient `Command::output` since the intermediate `Process` is not actually needed anymore, but that is outside the scope of this PR.
Since this is not a public API change, I'm not sure if an RFC is needed or not.
This allows decoupling `Command::spawn` and `Command::output`. This is
useful for targets which do support launching programs in blocking mode
but do not support multitasking (Eg: UEFI).
This was originally conceived when working on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/100316

Previously, the signal mask is always reset when a child process is
started. This breaks tools like `nohup` which expect `SIGHUP` to be
blocked.
With this change, the default behavior changes to inherit the signal mask.
This also changes the signal disposition for `SIGPIPE` to only be
changed if the `#[unix_sigpipe]` attribute isn't set.
Currently, on macOS, Rust never uses the fast posix_spawn path if a
directory change is requested due to a bug in Apple's libc. However, the
bug is only triggered if the program is a relative path.
This PR makes it so that the fast path continues to work if the program
is an absolute path or a lone filename.
This was an alternative proposed in
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/80537#issue-776674009, and it
makes a measurable performance difference in some of my code that spawns
thousands of processes.
fix error handling for pthread_sigmask(3)
Errors from `pthread_sigmask(3)` were handled using `cvt()`, which expects a return value of `-1` on error and uses `errno`.
However, `pthread_sigmask(3)` returns `0` on success and an error number otherwise.
Fix it by replacing `cvt()` with `cvt_nz()`.
Add a `process_group` method to UNIX `CommandExt`
- Tracking issue: #93857
- RFC: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3228
Add a `process_group` method to `std::os::unix::process::CommandExt` that
allows setting the process group id (i.e. calling `setpgid`) in the child, thus
enabling users to set process groups while leveraging the `posix_spawn` fast
path.
Update stdlib for the l4re target
This PR contains the work by ``@humenda`` and myself to update standard library support for the x86_64-unknown-l4re-uclibc tier 3 target, split out from humenda/rust as requested in #85967. The changes have been rebased on current master and updated in follow up commits by myself. The publishing of the changes is authorized and preferred by the original author. To preserve attribution, when standard library changes were introduced as part of other changes to the compiler, I have kept the changes concerning the standard library and altered the commit messages as indicated. Any incompatibilities have been remedied in follow up commits, so that the PR as a whole should result in a clean update of the target.
This updates the standard library's documentation to use the new syntax. The
documentation is worthwhile to update as it should be more idiomatic
(particularly for features like this, which are nice for users to get acquainted
with). The general codebase is likely more hassle than benefit to update: it'll
hurt git blame, and generally updates can be done by folks updating the code if
(and when) that makes things more readable with the new format.
A few places in the compiler and library code are updated (mostly just due to
already having been done when this commit was first authored).
The ability to interoperate with C code via FFI is not limited to crates
using std; this allows using these types without std.
The existing types in `std::os::raw` become type aliases for the ones in
`core::ffi`. This uses type aliases rather than re-exports, to allow the
std types to remain stable while the core types are unstable.
This also moves the currently unstable `NonZero_` variants and
`c_size_t`/`c_ssize_t`/`c_ptrdiff_t` types to `core::ffi`, while leaving
them unstable.
Errors from pthread_sigmask(3) were handled using cvt(), which expects a
return value of -1 on error and uses errno.
However, pthread_sigmask(3) returns 0 on success and an error number
otherwise.
Fix it by replacing cvt() with cvt_nz().
This makes a few changes to the weak symbol macros in `sys::unix`:
- `dlsym!` is added to keep the functionality for runtime `dlsym`
lookups, like for `__pthread_get_minstack@GLIBC_PRIVATE` that we don't
want to show up in ELF symbol tables.
- `weak!` now uses `#[linkage = "extern_weak"]` symbols, so its runtime
behavior is just a simple null check. This is also used by `syscall!`.
- On non-ELF targets (macos/ios) where that linkage is not known to
behave, `weak!` is just an alias to `dlsym!` for the old behavior.
- `raw_syscall!` is added to always call `libc::syscall` on linux and
android, for cases like `clone3` that have no known libc wrapper.
The new `weak!` linkage does mean that you'll get versioned symbols if
you build with a newer glibc, like `WEAK DEFAULT UND statx@GLIBC_2.28`.
This might seem problematic, but old non-weak symbols can tie the build
to new versions too, like `dlsym@GLIBC_2.34` from their recent library
unification. If you build with an old glibc like `dist-x86_64-linux`
does, you'll still get unversioned `WEAK DEFAULT UND statx`, which may
be resolved based on the runtime glibc.
I also found a few functions that don't need to be weak anymore:
- Android can directly use `ftruncate64`, `pread64`, and `pwrite64`, as
these were added in API 12, and our baseline is API 14.
- Linux can directly use `splice`, added way back in glibc 2.5 and
similarly old musl. Android only added it in API 21 though.
In #89522 we learned that `clone3` is interacting poorly with Gentoo's
`sandbox` tool. We only need that for the unstable pidfd extensions, so
otherwise avoid that and use a normal `fork`.
Manual Debug for Unix ExitCode ExitStatus ExitStatusError
These structs have misleading names. An ExitStatus[Error] is actually a Unix wait status; an ExitCode is actually an exit status. These misleading names appear in the `Debug` output.
The `Display` impls on Unix have been improved, but the `Debug` impls are still misleading, as reported in #74832.
Fix this by pretending that these internal structs are called `unix_exit_status` and `unix_wait_status` as applicable. (We can't actually rename the structs because of the way that the cross-platform machinery works: the names are cross-platform.)
After this change, this program
```
#![feature(exit_status_error)]
fn main(){
let x = std::process::Command::new("false").status().unwrap();
dbg!(x.exit_ok());
eprintln!("x={:?}",x);
}
```
produces this output
```
[src/main.rs:4] x.exit_ok() = Err(
ExitStatusError(
unix_wait_status(
256,
),
),
)
x=ExitStatus(unix_wait_status(256))
```
Closes#74832
The reference automatically coerces to a pointer. Writing an explicit
cast here is slightly misleading because that's most commonly used when
a pointer needs to be converted from one pointer type to another, e.g.
`*const c_void` to `*const sigaction` or vice versa.
