I'm trying to use the memfd_create syscall in my C code. I tried to include sys/memfd.h as the man page for memfd_create says is appropriate, but GCC gives me an error "sys/memfd: No such file or directory".
I've tried Googling around and couldn't find anyone having the same problem. I noticed some versions of the manpage for memfd_create say that I should include sys/mman.h, but it didn't seem to help when I tried it. It would say memfd_create was implicitly declared.
Here is a minimal reproduction of my problem.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <sys/memfd.h>
int main(){
int fd;
fd = memfd_create("test", MFD_CLOEXEC);
return 0;
}
I expect the above code to compile and run without error.
On older systems, you'll have to include linux/memfd.h for the MFD_ defines, and call memfd_create() via the the syscall(2) wrapper (and include unistd.h and sys/syscall.h for it work).
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/syscall.h>
#include <linux/memfd.h>
#include <err.h>
int main(void){
int fd;
if((fd = syscall(SYS_memfd_create, "test", MFD_CLOEXEC)) == -1)
err(1, "memfd_create");
return 0;
}
The Ubuntu man-pages in Bionic (18.04) are not up to date with this API (including its implementation in Bionic).
The Focal man-page correctly shows how to include memfd_create(). It says:
#define _GNU_SOURCE /* See feature_test_macros(7) */
#include <sys/mman.h>
So you only need to include <sys/mman.h>, and you need to build with -D_GNU_SOURCE in your compiler flags. Or, do as the man page says and literally #define _GNU_SOURCE before including the header. However, I recommend just compiling with -D_GNU_SOURCE instead.
I've been trying to get cgraph (https://graphviz.gitlab.io/_pages/pdf/cgraph.pdf) working so I read and write some graph files. I tried writing some very basic code:
#include <assert.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <float.h>
#include <limits.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <memory.h>
#include <stdarg.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <Windows.h>
#include <mysql.h>
#include <graphviz/cgraph.h>
int main() {
FILE *fp = NULL;
fp = fopen("test.dot", "w+");
if (fp == NULL) {
return -1;
}
Agraph_t *g;
g = agopen("test", Agdirected, NULL);
Agnode_t *signal1;
signal1 = agnode(g, "Signal1_ON", TRUE);
Agnode_t *signal2;
signal2 = agnode(g, "Signal1_OFF", TRUE);
Agedge_t *link = agedge(g, signal1, signal2, "link1", TRUE);
agattr(g, AGEDGE, "label", "transitionlink");
agwrite(g, fp);
fclose(fp);
system("pause");
return 0;
}
What should be happening is that the file should be written to test.dot. This code works perfectly fine on Win64 release, but fails on Win64 debug, Win32 debug, and Win32 release. I have double checked the .lib files and .dll files settings in visual studio and in the file directories, making sure to copy the release and debug versions of each platform correctly. However, the agwrite keeps causing a "Microsoft Visual Studio C Runtime Library has detected a fatal error" crash on Win64 debug, Win32 debug, and Win32 release. The weird thing is if I change
agwrite(g, fp); to agwrite(g, stdout);, the code works on all platforms/configurations. I am so confused why this is happening. Here is the source file which contains the code for agwrite if that helps: https://github.com/ellson/MOTHBALLED-graphviz/blob/master/lib/cgraph/write.c
I cannot debug the issue because the source has been compiled into .dlls, and .libs for each platform/configuration.
I appreciate any suggestions/feedback,
Thank you
Edit:
For anyone godly enough to try and get this working on their own system, here are all my binaries, libs, and include files: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/o9tjz7txu4m0k5q/AAAnp8Wu99q9IsFN7kvqZP7Ta?dl=0
Edit 2:
The compiler I am using is MSVC 14 on Windows 10.
I found out that using cgraph directly results in an error when trying to use agwrite(). The solution is to use the GVC abstraction layer which comes with the Graphviz C API to do file I/O. Here is the code that worked:
#include <assert.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <float.h>
#include <limits.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <memory.h>
#include <stdarg.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <Windows.h>
#include <mysql.h>
#include <graphviz/gvc.h>
int main() {
GVC_t *gvc;
gvc = gvContext();
Agraph_t *g;
g = agopen("test", Agdirected, NULL);
Agnode_t *signal1;
signal1 = agnode(g, "Signal1_ON", TRUE);
Agnode_t *signal2;
signal2 = agnode(g, "Signal1_OFF", TRUE);
Agedge_t *link = agedge(g, signal1, signal2, "link1", TRUE);
agattr(g, AGEDGE, "label", "transitionlink");
gvLayout(gvc, g, "dot");
gvRenderFilename(gvc, g, "dot", "test.dot");
gvFreeLayout(gvc, g);
agclose(g);
gvFreeContext(gvc);
system("pause");
return 0;
}
Edit:
Here is the documentation for GVC: https://graphviz.gitlab.io/_pages/pdf/gvc.3.pdf
The reason of crashing is described on official Graphviz site:
This usually happens when the Graphviz library is built using one version of the stdio library, and the user’s program is compiled using another. If the FILE structure of stdio is different, the call to agread() will cause a crash. This is mainly a problem on Windows where we just provide a binary release built with one version of Visual Studio and stdio changes depending on the version of Visual Studio. It can also occur if the user tries to use cygwin or something similar which may also use an incompatible stdio.

I have been able to remove almost all errors except these 5 errors in this C program (too long to paste so providing link).
http://codepad.org/AfqrDojN
The errors I receive are as follows:
I am using the following libraries:
#include <graphics.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <dos.h>
#include <conio.h>
What could be the issue?
you are redefining the function remove that is already declared in
#include <stdio.h>
changing the name of your function to (for example) void myremove() will probably solve your problem.
Looking at line 21 in radio.c
Where is "radiotimer_capture_cbt" structure defined? I am unable to locate it.
I am hoping the C/C++ experts from the community could help me locate the definition of this structure.
Here : https://github.com/openwsn-berkeley/openwsn-fw/blob/a1dbfd8a3341ac3a82ffbb610b4d749f44c429d9/firmware/openos/bsp/boards/radiotimer.h
typedef void (*radiotimer_compare_cbt)();
Just follow the header files
Almost certainly in one of the header files:
#include "board.h"
#include "radio.h"
#include "at86rf231.h"
#include "spi.h"
#include "radiotimer.h"
#include "debugpins.h"
#include "leds.h"
I have a code in which am trying to use outportb(), but while compiling it on MinGw i am getting below error.
C:\Users\A_TOMAR\AppData\Local\Temp\ccYPvctv.o:dsp.c:(.text+0x68): undefined reference to `outportb'
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <dos.h>
int main(void)
{
outportb(0x378,0xFF);
return 0;
}
I would like to know which header file is having this particular function?
Windows doesn't provide access to a hardware. You should use Win32 API calls.
This function is DOS specific and unavailable in Windows
Googling shows that your solution is inpout32.dll (example with weird font color)
#include <pc.h>
void outportb(unsigned short _port, unsigned char _data);
