This change enables Address Sanitizer systemically w/ `make MODE=dbg`. Our version of Rust's `unsafe` keyword is named `noasan` which is used for two functions that do aligned memory chunking, like `strcpy.c` and we need to fix the tiny DEFLATE code, but that's it everything else is fabulous you can have all the fischer price security blankets you need Best of all is we're now able to use the ASAN data in Blinkenlights to colorize the memory dumps. See the screenshot below of a test program: https://justine.lol/blinkenlights/asan.png Which is operating on float arrays stored on the stack, with red areas indicating poisoned memory, and the green areas indicate valid memory.
Cosmopolitan
Cosmopolitan Libc makes C a build-once run-anywhere language, like Java, except it doesn't need an interpreter or virtual machine. Instead, it reconfigures stock GCC to output a POSIX-approved polyglot format that runs natively on Linux + Mac + Windows + FreeBSD + OpenBSD + BIOS with the best possible performance and the tiniest footprint imaginable.
Background
For an introduction to this project, please read the αcτµαlly pδrταblε εxεcµταblε blog post and cosmopolitan libc website. We also have API documentation.
Getting Started
Here's how to get started with the freestanding hermetically-sealed monolithic source repository:
tar xf cosmopolitan-0.1.2.tar.gz # see our releases page
cd cosmo
make -j12
o//examples/hello.com
Here's how to get started with the amalgamated binaries, which let you bring your own build system:
unzip cosmopolitan-amalgamated-0.1.2.zip # see our releases page
echo 'main() { printf("hello world\n"); }' >hello.c
gcc -g -O -static -fno-pie -no-pie -mno-red-zone -nostdlib -nostdinc \
-o hello.com.dbg hello.c -Wl,--gc-sections -Wl,-z,max-page-size=0x1000 -fuse-ld=bfd \
-Wl,-T,ape.lds -include cosmopolitan.h crt.o ape.o cosmopolitan.a
objcopy -SO binary hello.com.dbg hello.com
./hello.com
