We could keep strechr as inline implementation in string.h and copy it over to strfunc.cc as exportable non-inline function strchrnul. Is our strechr really faster than an implementation which uses the word-wise pattern matching optimization? At least as far as the matching case is concerned. It will likely be faster in the non-matching case. Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Project Co-Leader cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat
[PATCH] Fix return value and errno set by sem_init(), sem_destroy() and sem_close()
While looking into some mysterious failures of sem_init() in python, I was
somewhat surprised to find the following comment in python/thread_pthread.h:
/*
* As of February 2002, Cygwin thread implementations mistakenly report error
* codes in the return value of the sem_ calls (like the pthread_ functions).
* Correct implementations return -1 and put the code in errno. This supports
* either.
*/
While this comment refers to sem_wait() and sem_trywait(), which seem to have
been fixed since [1], it seems that sem_init(), sem_destroy() and sem_close()
are still non-conformant with SUS in that (i) they do not set errno, and (ii)
they don't return -1 on failure, instead returning the value which should be
set as errno.
I'm not sure if (ii) makes much practical difference, as portable code should
arguably be comparing the result against 0, although this is not helped by the
fact that (as the linux man page puts it) Bizarrely, POSIX.1-2001 does not
specify the value that should be returned by a successful call to sem_init().
POSIX.1-2008 rectifies this, specifying the zero return on success.
(i) causes the reason for a sem_init() failure to be incorrectly reported as
whatever the previous value of errno is, more on which anon.
Attached is a patch which fixes this conformance issue with these functions.
I did wonder if there were internal uses in the cygwin DLL of these functions
which might be affected by this change. In a quick audit, the only point of
concern I found was semaphore::_terminate(). semaphore::_terminate() is only
used by semaphore::terminate() and does not propagate the result, but now may
be setting errno. I guess that semaphore::terminate() will now normally be
setting errno, as it attempts to apply semaphore::_terminate() to all
semaphores, not just shared ones.
semaphore::terminate() is only called from close_all_files(). Having this
change errno when used from do_exit() seems safe as we are past the point
where errno might be of significance, but the other uses of close_all_files()
are a bit more mysterious to me.
In what is probably an excess of caution, I've added a save_errno to
semaphore::terminate(), but I could use some help in determining if that is
actually needed.
2011-03-28 Jon TURNEY jon.tur...@dronecode.org.uk
* thread.cc (semaphore::init, destroy, close): Standards conformance
fix. On a failure, return -1 and set errno.
* thread.h (semaphore::terminate): Save errno since semaphore::close()
may now modify it.

Re: cyggfortran-3.dll broken ?
Since Dave Korn was wondering how many people this would be bothering, I'm just chiming in to say I was bitten by this too (since I both run cygwin setup less often than others and use octave less often than others, and since I'm not subscribed to the list, I'm late to the party). It was kind of baffling to have no output, error message, core dump, etc- just an immediate return regardless of what command line options I specified- and to have cygcheck say all was well with the library situation. Thankfully the thread Octave 3.4.0 crashes silently on the latest cygwin 1.7.8 over on the Octave mailing list came up high in search results and led to this thread. For me, just rolling back libgfortran is fine, and though I think it's kind of rough to have such API breakage in a upgrade which doesn't change the version number at all (just the build number), I'd certainly prefer that limited development resources be spent on getting gcc 4.6 and associated binutils etc ready for prime time. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
Bash: Cannot execute binary file
Ok here is my problem I used to be able to run bIRCD on a shell before. But now first time I try cygwin, I WGET http://ircd.bircd.org/bewareircd-linux.tar.gz and unzip it, edit the config files. And now I try to execute it using (.) ./BIRCD and it says BASH: Cannot execute binary file. I have full access to the file and when I type file bircd it says ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (GNU/Linux), statically linked, stripped.

Re: Bash: Cannot execute binary file
Why not just use the Windows version and invoke it from
cygwin (if cygwin is the environment from which you
want to do that)? It is easy to invoke Windows programs
from cygwin; you just need to remember to format any
arguments in the form the Windows program wants. To
that end, cygpath is a useful utility, e.g.:
function acrobat () {
command acrobat $(cygpath -wa ${1})
}
in your .bashrc file allows you to invoke Windows
acrobat with a path rewritten from cygwin format
to Windows format. This can be improved to check for
presence of the argument ${1}, etc., but perhaps
you get the idea.

- You should probably also add some quotes, in case your paths have spaces.
- A complete path to acrobat will avoid needing to have it in your path.
- Using cygstart will get you back to your command prompt.
function acrobat () {
if [ -f ${1} ]
then
cygstart '/path/acrobat' $(cygpath -wa ${1})
else
echo error: file `${1}' not found!
fi
}
Note: I have not tested the above. Debugging is left as an exercise for
the user.
- You also might look at cyg-wrapper.sh, found here:
http://hermitte.free.fr/cygwin/
Note: I don't use it so YMMV.
Good luck.
