Subject: [PATCH v3 0/3] nolibc: Add getcwd() and readlink()
Date: Thu, 2 Jul 2026 17:50:58 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260702085101.3304547-1-daniel@thingy.jp> (raw)
I needed getcwd() for something. So I added that, then realised
I also needed readlink() to test the result of getcwd().
This adds getcwd() and readlink() then adds a test that uses
both.
Note: getcwd() has some behaviour where if the current directory
is unreachable then the kernel returns "(unreachable)" and this
needs some special handling. I checked what musl was doing for
this. It seems pretty difficult to test and maybe needs some
calls nolibc doesn't have yet. Basically: It looks right but
there is no test.
v3:
- Addressed the issues noted by sashiko (impressed by how good it is now)
- Use __LINE__ for the error numbers in the test to make it
easy to spot where it broke.
- Redid the nolibc test for all archs, all passed.
v2:
- Addressed Thomas' comments for readlink() and making the test depend on proc.
- Filled out getcwd() so it matches what musl is doing.
- Expanded the test a little to try to cover passing bad arguments.
