2011-11-02Implement PSEUDO_UNLOAD, replacing existing PSEUDO_RELOADED semantics.Mark Hatle
Change from internal PSEUDO_RELOADED to external PSEUDO_UNLOAD environment variable. Enable external programs to have a safe and reliable way to unload pseudo on the next exec*. PSEUDO_UNLOAD also will disable pseudo if we're in a fork/clone situation in the same way PSEUDO_DISABLED=1 would. Rename the PSEUDO_DISABLED tests, and create a similar set for the new PSEUDO_UNLOAD. Signed-off-by: Mark Hatle <mark.hatle@windriver.com>
2011-06-09Fix realpath(name, NULL) when PSEUDO_DISABLED=1Peter Seebach
On some Linux systems, dlsym("realpath", RTLD_NEXT) prefers for reasons of its own to give a symbol that is also known as old_realpath, which fails and yields EINVAL when called with a null pointer as the second argument. This can be avoided, on some systems, by using dlvsym() to request the GLIBC_2.3 version of the symbol. The wrapper logic is enhanced to allow for specifying versions, although this currently only works for Linux (Darwin has no dlvsym, apparently?). The test case is a trivial program which calls realpath(name, NULL) run with PSEUDO_DISABLED=1.
2011-06-06Improve system()Peter Seebach
2011-06-02Add system() wrapper to force setup of the pseudo environment. NotePeter Seebach
that we add an extra fork() so we can do the setup in a child process, but still just pass the command string to the standard system() call.
2011-05-31Change logic on file creation/chmod so that we only secretly mask inPeter Seebach
the 0100 bit for directories. The reason is that otherwise we create plain files which are 0700 on disk, which means they're non-zero &0111, which breaks euidaccess(X_OK).

2011-03-25Merge in ports workPeter Seebach
This is a spiffied-up rebase of a bunch of intermediate changes, presented as a whole because it is, surprisingly, less confusing that way. The basic idea is to separate the guts code into categories ranging from generic stuff that can be the same everywhere and specific variants. The big scary one is the Darwin support, which actually seems to run okay on 64-bit OS X 10.6. (No other variants were tested.) The other example given is support for the old clone() syscall on RHEL 4, which affects some wrlinux use cases. There's a few minor cleanup bits here, such as a function with inconsistent calling conventions, but nothing really exciting.
