i386: Add <startup.h> [BZ #21913] hjl/pr21913/master
On Linux/i386, there are 3 ways to make a system call: 1. call *%gs:SYSINFO_OFFSET. This requires TLS initialization. 2. call *_dl_sysinfo. This requires relocation of _dl_sysinfo. 3. int $0x80. This is slower than #2 and #3, but works everywhere. When an object file is compiled with PIC, #1 is prefered since it is faster than #3 and doesn't require relocation of _dl_sysinfo. For dynamic executables, ld.so initializes TLS. However, for static executables, before TLS is initialized by __libc_setup_tls, #3 should be used for syscalls. This patch adds <startup.h> which defines _startup_fatal and defaults it to __libc_fatal. It replaces __libc_fatal with _startup_fatal in static executables where it is called before __libc_setup_tls is called. This header file is included in all files containing functions which are called before __libc_setup_tls is called. On Linux/i386, when PIE is enabled by default, _startup_fatal is turned into ABORT_INSTRUCTION and I386_USE_SYSENTER is defined to 0 so that "int $0x80" is used for system calls before __libc_setup_tls is called. [BZ #21913] * config.h.in (BUILD_PIE_DEFAULT): New. * csu/libc-tls.c: Include <startup.h>. * elf/dl-tunables.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/brk.c: Likewise. * csu/libc-tls.c: Include <startup.h>. (__libc_setup_tls): Call _startup_fatal instead of __libc_fatal. * sysdeps/generic/startup.h: New file. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/startup.h: Likewise.
