If the '_DIRENT_HAVE_D_TYPE' macro is defined after "#include <dirent.h>" has been used successfully, it means that the "dirent" structure features the "d_type" member. The directory entry type values were adapted from 4.4BSD-Lite2, but not all of these are used.
The memory pools store puddles near head of the allocation list and the large allocations near the tail of the list.
Some hints added to point to side-effects which might apply to memory allocation operations.
The 'struct tm' is now properly updated to reflect the time and date information which comes out of the number of seconds calculated.
A bug reported by Andreas Falkenhahn is resolved which had the effect of distorting the number of seconds calculated.
If the stream is unbuffered and turns out to be an interactive stream (e.g. stderr) then output will be made to follow the rules of line buffering to yield better readability of the output. Similar code exists with fputs(), for example.
fwrite() now tries to fill the write buffer as far is possible and will only resort to using the __putc() macros when necessary. This should improve write performance by quite a bit.
If the write buffer happens to be empty and the number of bytes to write is at least as large as the write buffer, then fwrite() will directly call write(). This should improve write performance, too.
If the file is in unbuffered mode, fwrite() now always calls write(), bypassing the write buffer altogether.
Setting the buffer size to 0 had the effect of switching the buffering mode. This is a bad idea since it wasn't actually called for: this is what the 'bufmode' parameter is intended for. What happens now is that the default buffer size is used (BUFSIZ), which sort of follows what the BSD libc did: a zero buffer size delayed the allocation of a buffer until the first read/write access occured.
gets() now tries to copy as much data from the read buffer as possible, and will fall back onto using the __getc() macro only if necessary. This should improve performance on long lines, or crash faster if the read buffer happens to be too short. This is probably wasted on gets(), but you never know...
If the buffer mode is set to "no buffering" then fread() will always bypass the buffer and call read() instead.
If there is enough data waiting to be read from the buffer, fread() will now copy it directly, refilling the buffer as needed.
If the read buffer happens to be empty, buffering is enabled for the stream, and the number of bytes to read is at least as large as the buffer size, then fread() will directly call read(), which should improve performance significantly.
fgets() now copies as much data from the read buffer as possible, falling back onto the __getc() macro only as a last resort. This should help greatly when reading long lines since the overhead of calling __getc() goes away.
Added integer overflow test to calloc().
Tiny change in getopt_long() so that the value pointed to by the "longindex" parameter is always initialized to an invalid index position (that being -1), instead of 0. The value of 0 can break some shell commands, most notably GNU wget.
Unused slabs which get recycled are no longer reinitialized from scratch if their chunk size matches what the allocator needed. If the chunk size matches, the list of available chunks is left unchanged, and just the various counters are reset.
Added __get_slab_stats() function.
Added support for global __slab_purge_threshold tuning variable.
Added a short test program for the slab allocator.
The malloc-test program was linked against the wrong object file in GNUmakefile.68k. Fixed.
Added a slab allocator which replaces the use of memory pools or the plain AllocMem() operations, respectively. In order to activate the slab allocator, choose a slab size (e.g. 2048 bytes or 4096 bytes) and declare a global variable like this:
ULONG __slab_max_size = 2048;
Memory allocations smaller than the slab size will be made from "slabs", i.e. large chunks of memory of the given size. Larger allocations will be managed separately.
- Replaced ISO Latin 1 code #160 with a plain blank space (ASCII code #32) where necessary

- The fscanf() family failed to parse and convert %f parameters correctly
if the respective number did not begin with a digit, but a decimal
point. Hence ".7" would not be processed, but "0.7" would.

- Reworked the __putc() and putc() macros to reference the 'c' input
parameter only once, and to be free of side-effects when tinkering
with the buffer position.
- isatty() had the __fd_lock() call in the wrong place, which could have
led to cleanup problems later.
- The close action in the stdio, socket and termios hook code now
also zaps the fd pointer itself after cleaning up the file descriptor
table entry.
- Removed the remains of all the stack extension and stack overflow/underflow
checking code. It never actually worked. The bit that does work is the stack
usage measurement code, plus the bit that sets up the the custom stack
according to local setting or by calling a query function.

available only under OS4. There is a variant of dlopen() in libunix.a
which will perform a path name conversion. Note that these functions
will not work in the thread-safe variant of the library because it
would be unwise to tinker with the currently running program's binary.
