2024-02-15Define _POSIX_C_SOURCE globallySimon Ser
Stop trying to maintain a per-file _POSIX_C_SOURCE. Instead, require POSIX.1-2008 globally. A lot of core source files depend on that already. Some care must be taken on a few select files where we need a bit more than POSIX. Some files need XSI extensions (_XOPEN_SOURCE) and some files need BSD extensions (_DEFAULT_SOURCE). In both cases, these feature test macros imply _POSIX_C_SOURCE. Make sure to not define both these macros and _POSIX_C_SOURCE explicitly to avoid POSIX requirement conflicts (e.g. _POSIX_C_SOURCE says POSIX.1-2001 but _XOPEN_SOURCE says POSIX.1-2008). Additionally, there is one special case in render/vulkan/vulkan.c. That file needs major()/minor(), and these are system-specific. On FreeBSD, _POSIX_C_SOURCE hides system-specific symbols so we need to make sure it's not defined for this file. On Linux, we can explicitly include <sys/sysmacros.h> and ensure that apart from symbols defined there the file only uses POSIX toys.
2022-05-12util/shm: clear mode permission bits in allocate_shm_file_pairSimon Ser
This ensures the file cannot be re-opened with write permissions. Closes: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wlroots/wlroots/-/issues/3429
2021-09-05util/shm: add allocate_shm_file_pairSimon Ser
This function behaves like allocate_shm_file, except it also returns a read-only FD. This is useful to share the same segment of memory with many Wayland clients.
2018-11-09Use ftruncate to set shared memory object's sizesghctoma
The posix_fallocate function should only be used with regular files.
2018-11-08Force ftruncate for shared mem. objects on FreeBSDsghctoma
FreeBSD does not allow to use posix_fallocate on shared memory objects.
2018-10-28util: use shm_open for in-memory filesemersion
shm_open is a POSIX function creating an in-memory file. Using it simplifies the code and removes the dependency on XDG_RUNTIME_DIR. The only downside is that we need to generate a random name for the shm file.
