Mirror of Suckless' sbase (git://git.suckless.org/sbase)
3c33abc520
A function used only in the OpenBSD-Kernel as of now, but it surely provides a helpful interface when you just don't want to make sure the incoming pointer to erealloc() is really NULL so it behaves like malloc, making it a bit more safer. Talking about *allocarray(): It's definitely a major step in code- hardening. Especially as a system administrator, you should be able to trust your core tools without having to worry about segfaults like this, which can easily lead to privilege escalation. How do the GNU coreutils handle this? $ strings -n 4611686018427387903 strings: invalid minimum string length -1 $ strings -n 4611686018427387904 strings: invalid minimum string length 0 They silently overflow... In comparison, sbase: $ strings -n 4611686018427387903 mallocarray: out of memory $ strings -n 4611686018427387904 mallocarray: out of memory The first out of memory is actually a true OOM returned by malloc, whereas the second one is a detected overflow, which is not marked in a special way. Now tell me which diagnostic error-messages are easier to understand. |

sbase - suckless unix tools =========================== sbase is a collection of unix tools that are inherently portable across UNIX and UNIX-like systems. The following tools are implemented ('*' == finished, '#' == UTF-8 support, '=' == implicit UTF-8 support, '|' == audited): UTILITY POSIX 2008 COMPLIANT MISSING OPTIONS ------- -------------------- --------------- =*| basename yes none =*| cal yes none =*| cat yes none =*| chgrp yes none =*| chmod yes none =*| chown yes none =*| chroot non-posix none =* cksum yes none =* cmp yes none #*| cols non-posix none col yes none =* comm yes none =*| cp yes none (-i) =* cron non-posix none #* cut yes none =*| date yes none =*| dirname yes none =* du yes none =*| echo yes none =*| env yes none #* expand yes none #* expr yes none =*| false yes none = find yes none #* fold yes none =* grep yes none =*| head yes none =*| hostname non-posix none =* kill yes none =*| link yes none =*| ln yes none =*| logger yes none =* logname yes none = ls no (-C), -S, -f, -m, -s, -x =*| md5sum non-posix none =*| mkdir yes none =*| mkfifo yes none =* mktemp non-posix none =*| mv yes none (-i) =*| nice yes none = nl no -d, -f, -h, -p =*| nohup yes none #* paste yes none =*| printenv non-posix none #* printf yes none =*| pwd yes none = readlink non-posix none =* renice yes none =*| rm yes none (-i) =*| rmdir yes none # sed seq non-posix none =*| setsid non-posix none =*| sha1sum non-posix none =*| sha256sum non-posix none =*| sha512sum non-posix none =*| sleep yes none sort no -m, -o, -d, -f, -i =* split yes none =*| sponge non-posix none #* strings yes none =* sync non-posix none =* tail yes none =* tar non-posix none =*| tee yes none =* test yes none =*| time yes none =* touch yes none #* tr yes none =*| true yes none =*| tty yes none =*| uname yes none #* unexpand yes none =* uniq yes none =*| unlink yes none =* uudecode yes none =* uuencode yes none #* wc yes none = xargs no -I, -L, -p, -s, -t, -x =*| yes non-posix none The complement of sbase is ubase[1] which is Linux-specific and 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 individual tools to sbase-box or run: make sbase-box-install 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.
