- GDB inferior may be suspended while the inferior grabs mutex.
This causes deadlock in terminal I/O. With this patch, timeout
for waiting mutex is set to 0 for the debugger process when the
process calls CreateProcess() with DEBUG_PROCESS flag to avoid
deadlock. This may cause the race issue in GDB, however, there
is no other way than that.

Drop mention of 32-bit installer, since it's offically discouraged, and
planned to be dropped soon.
Adjust various references to be something more generic, like 'the Cygwin
Setup program' to accommodate this.
32 bit Cygwin still exports function calls to support old applications.
E. g., when switching from 16 to 32 bit uid/gid values, new function
like getuid32 have been added and the old getuid function still only
provides 16 bit values. Newly built applications using getuid are
actually calling getuid32.
However, this link magic isn't performed inside Cygwin itself, so if
newlib functions call getuid, they actually call the old getuid, not
the new getuid32. This leads to truncated uid/gid values.
https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2022-January/250453.html reports
how this leads to problems in posix_spawn.
Fix this temporarily. i686 support will go away soon in Cygwin and the
fix can be dropped.

get_posix_access() creates DEF_*_OBJ aclent_t entries from Windows ACEs
with INHERIT flags set, independent of the file type. These flags only
make sense on directory objects, but certain Windows functions don't
check the file type and allow INHERIT ACE flags even on non-directories.
As a fix, make sure to ignore the INHERIT flags on non-directory ACLs
and don't propagate the matching DEF_*_OBJ aclent_t entries to callers.

Add patch, and make cocom unconditional in list of build prerequisites.
Even though the products of these tools are checked in, these tools are
required when building in a fresh git checkout, presumably due to the

noticing when building the documentation is broken.)
- This patch fixes the failure of input switching between io_handle
and io_handle_nat. This very rarely happens, however, input is
wrongly switched to io_handle_nat even though the non-cygwin app
is in the background.
- The recent commit "Cygwin: pty: Add missing input transfer when
switch_to_pcon_in state." causes regression that rlwrap cannot
work with cmd.exe. This patch fixes the issue.
- The recent commit: "Cygwin: pty: Fix Ctrl-C handling for non-cygwin
apps in background." causes the problem that cmd.exe is terminated
by Ctrl-C even if it is running in pseudo console. This patch fixes
the issue.
- With this patch, FILE_SYNCHRONOUS_IO_NONALERT flag is applied to
the read pipe so that native C# programs work with cygwin pipe.
To handle signals in reading pipe with this flag set, the read
pipe itself is always set to nonblocking mode and simulates the
blocking behaviour in raw_read().
- Default to byte mode rather than message mode in order to make
C# programs work with cygwin pipe.

reported a regression introduce by using a dynamically sized local
char array in favor of a statically sized array.
Fix this by reverting to a statically sized array, using a small
buffer on the stack for a reasonable number of requested digits, a
big mallocated buffer otherwise. This should work for small targets
as well, given that malloc is used in printf anyway right now.
This is *still* hopefully just a temporary measure, unless somebody
actually provides a new ldtoa.

The file attributes after creating a file are not necessarily
identical to the attributes we passed as argument to NtCreateFile.
This results in subsequent operations like fchmod or facl to

and cache those.

When running Cygwin's Bash in the Windows Terminal (see
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/terminal/ for details), Cygwin
is receiving keyboard input in the form of UTF-16 characters.
UTF-16 has that awkward challenge that it cannot map the full Unicode
range, and to make up for it, there are the ranges U+D800-U+DBFF and
U+DC00-U+DFFF which are illegal except when they come in a pair encoding
for Unicode characters beyond U+FFFF.
Cygwin does not handle such surrogate pairs correctly at the moment, as
can be seen e.g. when running Cygwin's Bash in the Windows Terminal and
then inserting an emoji (e.g. via Windows + <dot>, which opens an emoji
picker on recent Windows versions): Instead of showing an emoji, this
shows the infamous question mark in a black triangle, i.e. the invalid
Unicode character.
Let's special-case surrogate pairs in this scenario.
This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/3281

Use the same name as glibc & gnulib to indicate "newlib itself is
being compiled". This also harmonizes the codebase a bit in that
_LIBC was already used in places instead of _COMPILING_NEWLIB.
Building for bfin-elf, mips-elf, and x86_64-pc-cygwin produces
the same object code.
A recent change in binutils marks the .gnu_debuglink_overlay section
as debug section. When dllfixdbg calls objcopy -g, the section
is removed and the --add-gnu-debuglink option on the same command line
appends the section consequentially at the end of the sections.
This in turn breaks Windows Version info and, potentially, raising
the cygheap size at runtime.
Fix this by adding an explicit --keep-section=.gnu_debuglink_overlay
to the objcopy command line.

isabspath handles a path "X:", without trailing slash or backslash,
as absolute path. This breaks some scenarios with relative paths
starting with "X:". For instance, fstatat will mishandle a call
with valid dirfd and "c:" as path.
The reason is that gen_full_path_at() will check for isabspath("C:")
which returns true. So the path will be used verbatim in fstatat,
rather than being converted to a path "<dirfd-path>/c:".
So, introduce isabspath_strict, which returns true for paths starting
with "X:" only if the next char is actually a slash or backslash.
Use it from gen_full_path_at().
This still fixes only half the problem. The right thing would have been
to disallow using DOS paths in the first place. Unfortunately it's much
too late for that.

Per https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin-developers/2021-October/012429.html,
we may encounter a crash when starting multiple threads during process
startup (here: fhandler_fifo::fixup_after_{fork,exec}) which in turn
allocate memory via malloc.
The problem is concurrent usage of malloc before the malloc muto has
been initialized.
To fix this issue, convert the muto to a SRWLOCK and make sure it is
statically initalized. Thus, malloc can be called as early as necessary
and malloc_init is only required to check for user space provided malloc.
Note that this requires to implement a __malloc_trylock macro to be
called from fork.

This patch unifies the layout of the clipboard descriptor cygcb_t for
32- and 64-bit Cygwin. It allows correct copy/paste between the two
environments without corruption of user's copied data and without access
violations due to interpreting that data as a size field.
The definitions of CYGWIN_NATIVE and cygcb_t are moved to a new include
file, sys/clipboard.h. The include file is used by fhandler_clipboard.cc
as well as getclip.c and putclip.c in the Cygwin cygutils package.
When copy/pasting between 32- and 64-bit Cygwin environments, both must
be running version 3.3.0 or later for successful operation.
- The commit b531d6b0 introduced temporary_query_hdl() which uses
SystemHandleInformation. With this patch, ProcessHandleInformation
rather than SystemHandleInformation is used if it is available.
This request is faster, however, is only available since Windows 8,
therefore, SystemHandleInformation is used for Windows Vista and 7
as before.
- The commit f79a4611 introduced query_hdl, which is the read pipe
handle kept in the write pipe instance in order to determine if
the pipe is ready to write in select(). This implementation has
a potential risk that the write side fails to detect the closure
of the read side if more than one writer exists and one of them
is a non-cygwin process.
With this patch, the strategy of commit f79a4611 is used only if
the process is running as a service. For a normal process,
instead of keeping query_hdl in the write pipe instance, it is
retrieved temporarily when select() is called. Actually, we
want to use tenporary query_hdl for all processes, however, it
does not work for service processes due to OpenProcess()
failure.
open_setup is called by dtable::init_std_file_from_handle and
fhandler_base::open_with_arch. In both cases, failure of open_setup
is now a fatal error.
Currently this can only happen in the following situation: A Cygwin
process is started by a non-Cygwin process, one of the standard IO
handles is a pipe handle, and Cygwin is unable to create a required
mutex (read_mtx or hdl_cnt_mtx).
- query_hdl and hdl_cnt_mtx are moved from fhandler_pipe_fifo to
fhandler_pipe. Then reader_closed() is changed to virtual and
overridden in fhandler_pipe.
- This patch fixes the race issue in the handle counting to detect
closure of read pipe, which is introduced by commit f79a4611.
A mutex hdl_cnt_mtx is introduced for this issue.
