Windows 9x compatibility.
* fhandler_disk_file.cc (fhandler_base::fstat_helper): Drop now unneeded
casts in calls to_timestruc_t.
(fhandler_base::utimens_fs): Ditto for timespec_to_filetime.
* fhandler_proc.cc (format_proc_stat): Ditto for to_time_t.
* hires.h (class hires_ms): Remove unused member initime_ns.
Remove declarations for timeGetTime_ns and prime.
(hires_ms::uptime): Remove.
* posix_ipc.cc (ipc_cond_timedwait): Ditto for timespec_to_filetime.
* fhandler_registry.cc (fhandler_registry::fstat): Add cast.
* resource.cc (fill_rusage): Call NtQueryInformationProcess rather than
GetProcessTimes to deal with LARGE_INTEGER rather than FILETIME.
* times.cc: Simplify time handling. Throughout, use LARGE_INTEGER
rather than FILETIME to simplify computations. Throughout use
{u}int64_t rather than {unsigned} long long. Drop unneeded casts since
NSPERSEC is 64 bit anyway.
(systime_ns): Remove.
(times): Call NtQuerySystemInformation to fetch boot time. Call
NtQueryInformationProcess rather than GetProcessTimes to deal with
LARGE_INTEGER rather than FILETIME. Call GetSystemTimeAsFileTime.
(totimeval): Use constant 1000000 as in other functions.
(time_t_to_filetime): Remove.
(to_time_t): Change return type to time_t.
(time_as_timestruc_t): Rename filetime to systime.
(time): Ditto. Add cast.
(hires_ns::nsecs): Fix return type cast.
(hires_ms::timeGetTime_ns): Remove.
(hires_ns::prime): Remove.
(hires_ms::nsecs): Drop call to prime. Call GetSystemTimeAsFileTime
directly. Subtract FACTOR here since it's the only function needing
to do so.
(minperiod): Cosmetically change to ULONG.
(hires_ns::resolution): Fix return type cast.
(hires_ms::resolution): Simplify, rely on NtQueryTimerResolution.
* winsup.h: Align time related prototypes to above changes.
essentially guarded by thread-specific signal_arrived.
* exceptions.cc (_cygtls::handle_SIGCONT): Simplify. Eliminate lock/unlock
since code is guarded by signal_arrived.
code if mandatory locking is used on this descriptor. Explain why.
(fhandler_disk_file::pwrite): Ditto.
* posix.sgml (std-notes): Extend description of file locking.
sig_handle_tty_stop to wake up. Make sure to unlock before calling
yield to avoid starvation of sig_handle_tty_stop. Add comments.
* miscfuncs.cc (yield): Explain why yield should never be called under
_cygtls::lock conditions. Call SleepEx with 1ms timeout. Explain why.
Include Makefile.dep last.
(Makefile.dep): Run xidepend within source dir. Temporarily drop
faq.xml from dependencies.
* xidepend: Fix creating base filename to accommodate VPATH.
accommodate process with all runtime loaded DLLs already dlclosed
at fork time.
* gendef (_sigfe_maybe): Fix code handling early return if we don't
have a tls, broken on 2013-05-21.
using wide chars to make sure native chars don't get scrambled.
* environ.h (build_env): Fix formatting in declaration.
* pinfo.cc (pinfo::status_exit): Handle STATUS_NO_MEMORY. Explain why.
stacksize to SIZE_T. Cast to SIZE_T in pointer arithmetic. Slightly
enhance output in case of a fatal error.
* fork.cc (frok::parent): Always set ch.stackaddr to DeallocationStack
value of current thread to help stack reservation in
child_info_fork::alloc_stack_hard_way along. Simplify subsequent code
storing stack values in ch. Print guardsize in hex, too.
winsymliks:nativestrict option. Strip out description of symlink types
and refer to new pathnames-symlinks section.
* highlights.xml (ov-hi-files): Rip out most of symlink description and
refer to new pathnames-symlinks section instead.
* new-features.xml (ov-new1.7.19): Add CYGWIN=winsymlinks:nativestrict.
* pathnames.xml (pathnames-symlinks): New section describing symbolic
link handling.
