The implementation in LibC did a timestamp->day-of-week conversion
which looks like a valuable thing to have. But we only need it in
time_to_tm, where we already computed year/month/day -- so let's
consolidate on the day_of_week function in DateTime (which is
getting extracted to AK).
The JS tests pointed out that the implementation in DateTime
had an off-by-one in the month when doing the leap year check,
so this change fixes that bug.
mktime() is supposed to fill in tm_wday and tm_yday, and it
it's supposed to canonicalize out-of-range values (that is,
"Jan 31" is turned into "Feb 1").
Instead of making the straightfoward tm_to_time() implementation
more complicated, just make it call time_to_tm() once the timestamp
is computed to break it back down ot (canonical) tm entries.
Before, strftime unintentionally interpreted 0 as 'unlimited'. The specification
of strftime says no such thing.
Now, it properly returns 0 in that case (because the NUL byte doesn't fit).
Year computation has to be based on seconds, not days, in case
t is < 0 but t / __seconds_per_day is 0.
Year computation also has to consider negative timestamps.
With this, days is always positive and <= the number of days in the
year, so base the tm_wday computation directly on the timestamp,
and do it first, before t is modified in the year computation.
In C, % can return a negative number if the left operand is negative,
compensate for that.
Tested via test-js. (Except for tm_wday, since we don't implement
Date.prototype.getUTCDate() yet.)
timegm() is like mktime() in that it converts a struct tm to
a timestamp, but it treats the struct tm as UTC instead of as
local time.
timegm() is nonstandard, but availabe in both Linux and BSD,
and it's a useful function to have.
We stopped using gettimeofday() in Core::EventLoop a while back,
in favor of clock_gettime() for monotonic time.
Maintaining an optimization for a syscall we're not using doesn't make
a lot of sense, so let's go back to the old-style sys$gettimeofday().
As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.
This patch adds a single "kernel info page" that is mappable read-only
by any process and contains the current time of day.
This is then used to implement a version of gettimeofday() that doesn't
have to make a syscall.
To protect against race condition issues, the info page also has a
serial number which is incremented whenever the kernel updates the
contents of the page. Make sure to verify that the serial number is the
same before and after reading the information you want from the page.
