the archive. This will change the behaviour when creating archives
without members, i.e., instead of generating a 0-size archive file, an
archive with just the global header (8 bytes in total) will be created
and it is indeed a valid archive by the definition of libarchive, thus
subsequent operation on this archive will be accepted. This especially
solves the failure caused by following sequence: (several ports do)

fields in FTS and FTSENT structs being too narrow. In addition,
the narrow types creep from there into fts.c. As a result, fts(3)
consumers, e.g., find(1) or rm(1), can't handle file trees an ordinary
user can create, which can have security implications.
To fix the historic implementation of fts(3), OpenBSD and NetBSD
have already changed <fts.h> in somewhat incompatible ways, so we
are free to do so, too. This change is a superset of changes from
the other BSDs with a few more improvements. It doesn't touch
fts(3) functionality; it just extends integer types used by it to
match modern reality and the C standard.
Here are its points:
o For C object sizes, use size_t unless it's 100% certain that
the object will be really small. (Note that fts(3) can construct
pathnames _much_ longer than PATH_MAX for its consumers.)
o Avoid the short types because on modern platforms using them
results in larger and slower code. Change shorts to ints as
follows:
- For variables than count simple, limited things like states,
use plain vanilla `int' as it's the type of choice in C.
- For a limited number of bit flags use `unsigned' because signed
bit-wise operations are implementation-defined, i.e., unportable,
in C.
o For things that should be at least 64 bits wide, use long long
and not int64_t, as the latter is an optional type. See
FTSENT.fts_number aka FTS.fts_bignum. Extending fts_number `to
satisfy future needs' is pointless because there is fts_pointer,
which can be used to link to arbitrary data from an FTSENT.
However, there already are fts(3) consumers that require fts_number,
or fts_bignum, have at least 64 bits in it, so we must allow for them.
o For the tree depth, use `long'. This is a trade-off between making
this field too wide and allowing for 64-bit inode numbers and/or
chain-mounted filesystems. On the one hand, `long' is almost
enough for 32-bit filesystems on a 32-bit platform (our ino_t is
uint32_t now). On the other hand, platforms with a 64-bit (or
wider) `long' will be ready for 64-bit inode numbers, as well as
for several 32-bit filesystems mounted one under another. Note
that fts_level has to be signed because -1 is a magic value for it,
FTS_ROOTPARENTLEVEL.
o For the `nlinks' local var in fts_build(), use `long'. The logic
in fts_build() requires that `nlinks' be signed, but our nlink_t
currently is uint16_t. Therefore let's make the signed var wide
enough to be able to represent 2^16-1 in pure C99, and even 2^32-1
on a 64-bit platform. Perhaps the logic should be changed just
to use nlink_t, but it can be done later w/o breaking fts(3) ABI
any more because `nlinks' is just a local var.
This commit also inludes supporting stuff for the fts change:
o Preserve the old versions of fts(3) functions through libc symbol
versioning because the old versions appeared in all our former releases.
o Bump __FreeBSD_version just in case. There is a small chance that
some ill-written 3-rd party apps may fail to build or work correctly
if compiled after this change.
o Update the fts(3) manpage accordingly. In particular, remove
references to fts_bignum, which was a FreeBSD-specific hack to work
around the too narrow types of FTSENT members. Now fts_number is
at least 64 bits wide (long long) and fts_bignum is an undocumented
alias for fts_number kept around for compatibility reasons. According
to Google Code Search, the only big consumers of fts_bignum are in
our own source tree, so they can be fixed easily to use fts_number.
o Mention the change in src/UPDATING.

Even though I believe this is a good change, it does

good to document the reasoning behind the change.
cases which are used mainly by regression tests.
As usual, the cutoff for tiny args was not correctly translated to
float precision. It was 2**-54 but 2**-24 works. It must be about
2**-precision, since the error from approximating log(1+x) by x is
about the same as |x|. Exhaustive testing shows that 2**-24 gives
perfect rounding in round-to-nearest mode.
Similarly for the cutoff for being small, except this is not used by
so many other functions. It was 2**-29 but 2**-15 works. It must be
a bit smaller than sqrt(2**-precision), since the error from
approximating log(1+x) by x-x*x/2 is about the same as x*x. Exhaustive
testing shows that 2**-15 gives a maximum error of 0.5052 ulps in
round-to-nearest-mode. The algorithm for the general case is only good
for 0.8388 ulps, so this is sufficient (but it loses slightly on i386 --
then extra precision gives 0.5032 ulps for the general case).
While investigating this, I noticed that optimizing the usual case by
falling into a middle case involving a simple polynomial evaluation
(return x-x*x/2 instead of x here) is not such a good idea since it
gives an enormous pessimization of tinier args on machines for which
denormals are slow. Float x*x/2 is denormal when |x| ~< 2**-64 and
x*x/2 is evaluated in float precision, so it can easily be denormal
for normal x. This is even more interesting for general polynomial
evaluations. Multiplying out large powers of x is normally a good
optimization since it reduces dependencies, but it creates denormals
starting with quite large x.
forget to translate "float" to "double".
ucbtest didn't detect the bug, but exhaustive testing of the float
case relative to the double case eventually did. The bug only affects
args x with |x| ~> 2**19*(pi/2) on non-i386 (i386 is broken in a
different way for large args).
it should never have existed and it has not been used for many years
(floats are reduced faster using doubles). All relevant changes (just
the workaround for broken assignment) have been merged to the double
version.
there is a problem with non-floats (when i386 defaults to extra
precision). This essentially restores yesterday's behaviour for doubles
on i386 (since generic rint() isn't used and everywhere else assumed
working assignment), but for arches that use the generic rint() it
finishes restoring some of 1995's behaviour (don't waste time doing
unnecessary store/load).
variable hack for exp2f() only.
The volatile variable had a surprisingly large cost for exp2f() -- 19
cycles or 15% on i386 in the worst case observed. This is only partly
explained by there being several references to the variable, only one
of which benefited from it being volatile. Arches that have working
assignment are likely to benefit even more from not having any volatile
variable.
exp2() now has a chance of working with extra precision on i386.
exp2() has even more references to the variable, so it would have been
pessimized more by simply declaring the variable as volatile. Even
the temporary volatile variable for STRICT_ASSIGN costs 5-10% on i386,
(A64) so I will change STRICT_ASSIGN() to do an ordinary assignment
until i386 defaults to extra precision.
instead of a volatile cast hack for the float version only. The cast
hack broke with gcc-4, but this was harmless since the float version
hasn't been used for a few years. Merge from the float version so
that the double version has a chance of working on i386 with extra
precision.
See k_rem_pio2f.c rev.1.8 for the original hack.
Convert to _FBSDID().
hack for log1pf() only. The cast hack broke with gcc-4, resulting in
~1 million errors of more than 1 ulp, with a maximum error of ~1.5 ulps.
Now the maximum error for log1pf() on i386 is 0.5034 ulps again (this
depends on extra precision), and log1p() has a chance of working with
extra precision.
See s_log1pf.c 1.8 for the original hack. (It claims only 62343 large
errors).
Convert to _FBSDID(). Another thing broken with gcc-4 is the static
const hack used for rcsids.
around assignments not working for gcc on i386. Now volatile hacks
for rint() and rintf() don't needlessly pessimize so many arches
and the remaining pessimizations (for arm and powerpc) can be avoided
centrally.
This cleans up after s_rint.c 1.3 and 1.13 and s_rintf.c 1.3 and 1.9:
- s_rint.c 1.13 broke 1.3 by only using a volatile cast hack in 1 place
when it was needed in 2 places, and the volatile cast hack stopped
working with gcc-4. These bugs only affected correctness tests on
i386 since i386 normally uses asm rint() and doesn't support the
extra precision mode that would break assignments of doubles.
- s_rintf.c 1.9 improved(?) on 1.3 by using a volatile variable hack
instead of an extra-precision variable hack, but it declared 2
variables as volatile when only 1 variable needed to be volatile.
This only affected speed tests on i386 since i386 uses asm rintf().

write a new test to exercise the hardlink strategies used
by different archive formats (tar, old cpio, new cpio).
This uncovered two problems, both fixed by this commit:
1) Enforce file size when writing files to disk.
2) When restoring hardlink entries, if they have data associated, go
ahead and open the file so we can write the data.
In particular, this fixes bsdtar/bsdcpio extraction of new cpio
formats where the "original" is empty and the subsequent "hardlink"
entry actually carries the data. It also provides correct behavior
for old cpio archives where hardlinked entries have their bodies
stored multiple times in the archive; the last body should always be
the one that ends up in the final file. The new pax format also
permits (but does not require) hardlinks to carry file data; again,
the last contents should always win.
Note that with any of these, a size of zero on a hardlink simply means
that the hardlink carries no data; it does not mean that the file has
zero size. A non-zero size on a hardlink does provide the file size.
Thanks to: John Baldwin, for reminding me about this long-standing bug
and sending me a simple example archive that prompted this test case
assignments and casts don't clip extra precision, if any. The
implementation is to assign to a temporary volatile variable and read
the result back to assign to the original lvalue.
lib/msun currently 2 different hard-coded hacks to avoid the problem
in just a few places and needs it in a few more places. One variant
uses volatile for the original lvalue. This works but is slower than
necessary. Another temporarily casts the lvalue to volatile. This
broke with gcc-4.2.1 or earlier (gcc now stores to the lvalue but
doesn't load from it).
instead of 32+32+15+1) on all arches that have such long doubles (amd64,
ia64 and i386). Large objects should be be accessed in large units,
and the 32+32+15+1[+padding] decomposition asks for almost the opposite
of that, sometimes resulting in very slow accesses depending on how
well the compiler ignores what we ask for and converts to the best
units for the given machine. E.g., on Athlons, there is a 10-20 cycle
penalty for accessing the middle 32-bit word immediately after an
80-bit store.
Whether actually using the alternative view is better is very machine-
dependent. A 32+32+16 view is probably best with old 32-bit systems
and gcc through 4.2.1. The compiler should mostly avoid the view and
generate best accesses, but gcc-4.2.1 is far from doing that. I think
64+16 is best for now. Similarly for doubles -- they should be using
64+0 especially on 64-bit machines, but fdlibm uses 32+32 extensively
for them. Fortunately, in 64-bit mode for doubles, gcc already ignores
the 32+32-bit view and generates best accesses in many cases.
