win32: move is_absolute_path()

2021-03-01T09:20:58+00:00

Make is_absolute_path() a function rather than a macro and move it from ash.c into mingw.c.

win32: fixes to build on Windows/MSYS2/mingw-w64

2021-02-21T09:51:08+00:00

To investigate GitHub issue #200 it was necessary to perform build on Window using the MSYS2/mingw-w64 toolchain. This threw up some issues: - The settings for _WIN32_WINNT and __USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO differ from those in Fedora resulting in compiler errors and warnings. Force the defaults I'm used to. - The workaround to allow native compilation of mconf.c was broken by a subsequent upstream change. Make it work again.

win32: update sysinfo(2) implementation

2021-02-19T13:10:06+00:00

Add a call to GetPerformanceInfo. Treat the SystemCache member of the PERFORMANCE_INFORMATION structure as buffer RAM. Deduct it from available RAM. The numbers reported by 'free' move about in vaguely sensible ways when I start and stop programs, though I still don't know if they're in any way accurate.

free: implement sysinfo(2) and enable free(1)

2021-02-18T15:47:47+00:00

This is an experimental implementation of sysinfo(2)/free(1). It uses the WIN32 API GlobalMemoryStatusEx() to obtain information about memory. It seems that the 'total pagefile' value includes total RAM as well as pagefile and 'available pagefile' includes available RAM. So the RAM values are deducted. I've no idea what corresponds to Linux buffers and cache.

ash: code shrink

2021-02-14T12:27:27+00:00

Since there's only one call to mingw_spawn_forkshell() we might as well just call spawnve() directly from ash.

win32: implement symlink(2)

2021-02-12T14:11:01+00:00

Provide an implementation of symlink(2). Calls to symlink(2) will fail in default Windows installations unless running with elevated privileges. Failure to create a symlink when extracting files from an archive is therefore treated as a non-fatal error. There are two ways to permit the creation of symlinks: - Edit security policy to give users the 'Create symbolic links' privilege. Unfortunately this doesn't work for users who are an Administrator. - Enable developer mode, which is available in later versions of Windows 10. The ability to create symlinks is not available in Windows XP or ReactOS.

win32: make readlink(2) implementation unconditional

2021-02-12T14:02:28+00:00

There doesn't seem to be much advantage in having readlink(2) as a configuration option. Making it unconditional reduces divergence from upstream and allows the removal of a check for ENOSYS that's been in busybox-w32 since the start.

win32: code shrink

2021-02-06T09:52:11+00:00

Don't compile some code that isn't currently supported for WIN32. Saves 24 bytes.
