sbase - suckless unix tools
===========================
sbase is a collection of unix tools that are inherently portable
across UNIX and UNIX-like systems.
Prepare POSIX 2013 audit I can't believe we've come this far! The idea is to look at the 2013 POSIX corrigendum for each tool and deep-test features before making the first 0.1 release. To keep the noise low, I'll do this in batches, not on a per-tool- basis (as many of these are trivial to test). In the meantime, I'll also think of a fitting STANDARDS section for the non-POSIX tools. Now that the audits are pretty much done, I can also have a more relaxed view on standards compliance instead of having to dig through some uncleaned mess. To mark this "new beginning", the README has gotten a liftover. The POSIX 2008-column was more or less useless and as I expect the checks to go along pretty quickly, I "reset" the compliance state of all but the non-POSIX tools and will then go along and check every single one of them in the next few days. Apart from the few missing flags and audits, sbase should then be ready to hit the world with the first release after 4 years of work.

The following tools are implemented:
Add an easier to edit "table" of tools in README We need to go through the tools and update this table to reflect current state.

Some lines had to be commented out, as glibc/musl apparently have not fully implemented the mandatory variables for the 2013 corrigendum of POSIX 2008. Also added a manpage and the necessary entries in README. I also removed it from the TODO.

Rewrite od(1) Looking at the old code, it became clear that the desired functionality with the t-flag could not be added unless the underlying data-structures were reworked. Thus the only way to be successful was to rewrite the whole thing. od(1) allows giving arbitrarily many type-specs per call, both via -t x1o2... and -t x1 -t o2 and intermixed. This fortunately is easy to parse. Now, to be flexible, it should not only support types of integral length. Erroring out like this is inacceptable: $ echo -n "shrek"| od -t u3 od: invalid type string ‘u3’; this system doesn't provide a 3-byte integral type Thus, this new od(1) just collects the bytes until shortly before printing, when the numbers are written into a long long with the proper offset. The bytes per line are just the lcm of all given type-lengths and >= 16. They are equal to 16 for all types that are possible to print using the old od(1)'s. Endianness is of course also supported, needs some testing though, especially on Big Endian systems.

Audit sort(1) and mark it as finished 1) Remove the function prototypes. No need for them, as the functions are ordered. 2) Add fieldseplen, so the length of the field-separator is not calculated nearly each time skipcolumn() is called. 3) rename next_col to skip_to_next_col so the purpose is clear, also reorder the conditional accordingly. 4) Put parentheses around certain ternary expressions. 5) BUGFIX: Don't just exit() in check(), but make it return something, so we can cleanly fshut() everything. 6) OFF-POSIX: Posix for no apparent reason does not allow more than one file when the -c or -C flags are given. This can be problematic when you want to check multiple files. With the change 5), rewriting check() to return a value, I went off-posix after discussing this with Dimitris to just allow arbitrary numbers of files. Obviously, this does not break scripts and is convenient for everybody who wants to quickly check a big amount of files. As soon as 1 file is "unsorted", the return value is 1, as expected. For convenience reasons, check()'s warning now includes the filename. 7) BUGFIX: Set ret to 2 instead of 1 when the fshut(fp, *argv) fails. 8) BUGFIX: Don't forget to fshut stderr at the end. This would improperly return 1 in the following case: $ sort -c unsorted_file 2> /dev/full 9) Other style changes, line length, empty line before return.

The POSIX 2008-column was more or less useless and as I expect the checks to go along pretty quickly, I "reset" the compliance state of all but the non-POSIX tools and will then go along and check every single one of them in the next few days. Apart from the few missing flags and audits, sbase should then be ready to hit the world with the first release after 4 years of work.

POSIX 2013 audit Mostly manpage-shuffling according to the changes in the corrigendum, wording changes and more idiomatic expressions. All this is finished up by marking the POSIX 2013 conformant tools with .St -p1003.1-2013 which is not available in older mandoc builds or nroff, but which reflects what we actually did, so who cares? This is a huge step and it's not far until we can release sbase 0.1.

Add TFTP client as specified by RFC 1350 This client does not support the netascii mode. The default mode is octet/binary and should be sufficient. One thing left to do is to check the source port of the server to make sure it doesn't change. If it does, we should ignore the packet and send an error back without disturbing an existing transfer.

Refactor and audit which(1) Use the *at functions instead of building paths manually. We do still have path-building in recurse() and other areas, but the long-term goal is to rid most interfaces of that for practical and security reasons. In this case, it's more or less trivial. Also, refactor the manpage to be more consistent with the others. BUGFIX: Return exit status 3 on error.

Prepare POSIX 2013 audit I can't believe we've come this far! The idea is to look at the 2013 POSIX corrigendum for each tool and deep-test features before making the first 0.1 release. To keep the noise low, I'll do this in batches, not on a per-tool- basis (as many of these are trivial to test). In the meantime, I'll also think of a fitting STANDARDS section for the non-POSIX tools. Now that the audits are pretty much done, I can also have a more relaxed view on standards compliance instead of having to dig through some uncleaned mess. To mark this "new beginning", the README has gotten a liftover. The POSIX 2008-column was more or less useless and as I expect the checks to go along pretty quickly, I "reset" the compliance state of all but the non-POSIX tools and will then go along and check every single one of them in the next few days. Apart from the few missing flags and audits, sbase should then be ready to hit the world with the first release after 4 years of work.

Add an easier to edit "table" of tools in README We need to go through the tools and update this table to reflect current state.

Minor fix for README
2014-02-12 13:39:13 -05:00
The complement of sbase is ubase[1] which is Linux-specific and
Add initial README
2014-02-12 09:34:09 -05:00
provides all the non-portable tools. Together they are intended to
form a base system similar to busybox but much smaller and suckless.
Building
--------
To build sbase, simply type make. You may have to fiddle with
config.mk depending on your system.
You can also build sbase-box, which generates a single binary
containing all the required tools. You can then symlink the
README: document sbase-box-install rule
2015-02-28 09:40:16 -05:00
individual tools to sbase-box or run: make sbase-box-install
Add initial README
2014-02-12 09:34:09 -05:00
Ideally you will want to statically link sbase. If you are on Linux
we recommend using musl-libc[2].
Portability
-----------
sbase has been compiled on a variety of different operating systems,
including Linux, *BSD, OSX, Haiku, Solaris, SCO OpenServer and others.
Various combinations of operating systems and architectures have also
been built.
You can build sbase with gcc, clang, tcc, nwcc and pcc.
