6a193804a8 add MIN/MAX macros to sys/param.h
this is a nonstandard junk header anyway, so just do what apps expect..

477e72ac4a add legacy futimes and lutimes functions
based on patch by sh4rm4. these functions are deprecated; futimens and
utimensat should be used instead in new programs.

b768c7bc63 make gcc wrapper support -shared correctly
it was previously attempting to link start files as part of shared
objects. this is definitely wrong and depending on the platform and
linker could range from just adding extraneous junk to introducing
textrels to making linking fail entirely.

d0678b58ab make glob mark symlinks-to-directories with the GLOB_MARK flag
POSIX is unclear on whether it should, but all historical
implementations seem to behave this way, and it seems more useful to
applications.

e12fe65c92 dynamic linker support for PIE binaries (position-independent main program)

ce7d72596c fix cancellation failure in single-threaded programs
even a single-threaded program can be cancellable, e.g. if it's called
pthread_cancel(pthread_self()). the correct predicate to check is not
whether multiple threads have been invoked, but whether pthread_self
has been invoked.

5235a2a5a4 use prlimit syscall for getrlimit/setrlimit
this allows the full range of 64-bit limit arguments even on 32-bit
systems. fallback to the old syscalls on old kernels that don't
support prlimit.

0b6dc09744 fix dynamic linker not to depend on DYNAMIC ptr in 0th entry of GOT
this fixes an issue using gold instead of gnu ld for linking. it also
should eliminate the need of the startup code to even load/pass the
got address to the dynamic linker.

based on patch submitted by sh4rm4 with minor cosmetic changes.

further cleanup will follow.

07065210ca alias basename to glibc name for it, to meet abi goals
note that regardless of the name used, basename is always conformant.
it never takes on the bogus gnu behavior, unlike glibc where basename
is nonconformant when declared manually without including libgen.h.

e5d78fe8df fix issue with excessive mremap syscalls on realloc
CHUNK_SIZE macro was defined incorrectly and shaving off at least one
significant bit in the size of mmapped chunks, resulting in the test
for oldlen==newlen always failing and incurring a syscall. fortunately
i don't think this issue caused any other observable behavior; the
definition worked correctly for all non-mmapped chunks where its
correctness matters more, since their lengths are always multiples of
the alignment.

26120950e2 report sem value overflows in sem_post
this is not required by the standard, but it's nicer than corrupting
the state and rather inexpensive.

1d3c276807 don't define wchar_t on c++
it's a keyword in c++ (wtf). i'm not sure this is the cleanest
solution; it might be better to avoid ever defining __NEED_wchar_t on
c++. but in any case, this works for now.

14f2e115c2 add dummy __cxa_finalize
musl's dynamic linker does not support unloading dsos, so there's
nothing for this function to do. adding the symbol in case anything
depends on its presence..

b7c683be35 support __cxa_atexit, and registering atexit functions from atexit handlers
mildly tested; may have bugs. the locking should be updated not to use
spinlocks but that's outside the scope of this one module.

8e8ddeff7e fix F_GETOWN return value handling
the fcntl syscall can return a negative value when the command is
F_GETOWN, and this is not an error code but an actual value. thus we
must special-case it and avoid calling __syscall_ret to set errno.
this fix is better than the glibc fix (using F_GETOWN_EX) which only
works on newer kernels and is more complex.

Rich Felker
b6f9974ad8 simplify robust mutex unlock code path
right now it's questionable whether this change is an improvement or
not, but if we later want to support priority inheritance mutexes, it
will be important to have the code paths unified like this to avoid
major code duplication.

b8688ff875 fix crash if pthread_mutex_unlock is called without ever locking
this is valid for error-checking mutexes; otherwise it invokes UB and
would be justified in crashing.

7fe58d3511 use count=0 instead of 1 for recursive mutex with only one lock reference
this simplifies the code paths slightly, but perhaps what's nicer is
that it makes recursive mutexes fully reentrant, i.e. locking and
unlocking from a signal handler works even if the interrupted code was
in the middle of locking or unlocking.

b85fec2ded fix failure-to-wake in rwlock unlock
a reader unlocking the lock need only wake one waiter (necessarily a
writer, but a writer unlocking the lock must wake all waiters
(necessarily readers). if it only wakes one, the remainder can remain
blocked indefinitely, or at least until the first reader unlocks (in
which case the whole lock becomes serialized and behaves as a mutex
rather than a read lock).
