* Replace --enable-static-pie with --disable-default-pieSiddhesh Poyarekar2021-12-131-10/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Build glibc programs and tests as PIE by default and enable static-pie automatically if the architecture and toolchain supports it. Also add a new configuration option --disable-default-pie to prevent building programs as PIE. Only the following architectures now have PIE disabled by default because they do not work at the moment. hppa, ia64, alpha and csky don't work because the linker is unable to handle a pcrel relocation generated from PIE objects. The microblaze compiler is currently failing with an ICE. GNU hurd tries to enable static-pie, which does not work and hence fails. All these targets have default PIE disabled at the moment and I have left it to the target maintainers to enable PIE on their targets. build-many-glibcs runs clean for all targets. I also tested x86_64 on Fedora and Ubuntu, to verify that the default build as well as --disable-default-pie work as expected with both system toolchains.

* Add build option to disable usage of scv on powerpcMatheus Castanho2021-06-101-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 68ab82f56690ada86ac1e0c46bad06ba189a10ef added support for the scv syscall ABI on powerpc. Since then systems that have kernel and processor support started using scv. However adding the proper support for a new syscall ABI requires changes to several other projects (e.g. qemu, valgrind, strace, kernel), which are gradually receiving support. Meanwhile, having a way to disable scv on glibc at build time can be useful for distros that may encounter conflicts with projects that still do not support the scv ABI, buying time until proper support is added. This commit adds a --disable-scv option that disables scv support and uses sc for all syscalls, like before commit 68ab82f56690ada86ac1e0c46bad06ba189a10ef.

* powerpc64le: raise GCC requirement to 7.4 for long double transitionPaul E. Murphy2020-04-301-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add compiler feature tests to ensure we can build ieee128 long double. These test for -mabi=ieeelongdouble, -mno-gnu-attribute, and -Wno-psabi. Likewise, verify some compiler bugs have been addressed. These aren't helpful for building glibc, but may cause test failures when testing the new long double. See notes below from Raji. On powerpc64le, some older compiler versions give error for the function signbit() for 128-bit floating point types. This is fixed by PR83862 in gcc 8.0 and backported to gcc6 and gcc7. This patch adds a test to check compiler version to avoid compiler errors during make check. Likewise, test for -mno-gnu-attribute support which was On powerpc64le, a few files are built on IEEE long double mode (-mabi=ieeelongdouble), whereas most are built on IBM long double mode (-mabi=ibmlongdouble, the default for -mlong-double-128). Since binutils 2.31, linking object files with different long double modes causes errors similar to: ld: libc_pic.a(s_isinfl.os) uses IBM long double, libc_pic.a(ieee128-qefgcvt.os) uses IEEE long double. collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [../Makerules:649: libc_pic.os] Error 1 The warnings are fair and correct, but in order for glibc to have support for both long double modes on powerpc64le, they have to be ignored. This can be accomplished with the use of -mno-gnu-attribute option when building the few files that require IEEE long double mode. However, -mno-gnu-attribute is not available in GCC 6, the minimum version required to build glibc, so this patch adds a test for this feature in powerpc64le builds, and fails early if it's not available.

* Require GCC 6.2 or later to build glibc.Joseph Myers2019-02-011-7/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As discussed during development for glibc 2.29, when we increased the required minimum GCC version for building glibc to GCC 5, working purely based on the times at which such requirements have been increased in the past it would be appropriate for glibc 2.30 to require GCC 6 (matching GCC 4.9 having been required for glibc 2.26). Naming 6.2 specifically as the minimum version then means a separate version requirement no longer needs to be specified for powerpc64le. Thus, this patch increases the minimum to 6.2, removing the documentation of the separate requirement for powerpc64le. It does not remove the powerpc64le configure test, or any __GNUC_PREREQ that could be removed as not being in installed headers or files shared with gnulib; I think such cleanups are best done separately.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We know that building glibc with GCC 4.9 is broken on various platforms (bug 23993). As it's more than a year since we last increased the minimum GCC version to build glibc, this patch changes the requirement to be GCC 5 or later (indeed, based on 4.9 having been required for building 2.26, it would be consistent in terms of timing to require GCC 6 or later from the 2.30 release onwards). It deliberately just updates the configure test and corresponding documentation, leaving removal of no-longer-needed __GNUC_PREREQ tests for a separate patch. In the NEWS entry, the requirement for a newer GCC version for powerpc64le is reiterated (as in the entry for the 4.9 requirement in 2.26) to avoid suggesting the version requirement there has gone down. (If that version goes up further as part of support for binary128 long double, of course the wording would change at that time.) Tested for x86_64.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The install.texi documentation of uses of Perl and Python is substantially out of date. The description of Perl is "to test the installation" (which I interpret as referring to test-installation.pl), but it's used for more tests than that, and to build the manual, and to regenerate one file in the source tree. The description of Python is only for pretty-printer tests, but it's used for other tests / benchmarks as well (and for other internal uses such as updating Unicode data, for which we already require Python 3, but I think install.texi only needs to describe uses from the main glibc Makefiles). This patch updates the descriptions of what those tools are used for. The Python information (and information about other tools for testing pretty printers) was awkwardly in the middle of the general description of building and testing glibc, rather than with the rest of information about tools used in glibc build and test; this patch moves the information about those tools into the main list.

The previous text incorrectly used @var markup with CC and CFLAGS. The correct markup for environment variables is @env, but it's also the case that passing such variables explicitly on the configure command line is preferred to passing them in the environment, so this patch changes the documentation to describe passing them on the command line (and uses @code). In many cases putting options in the wrong place may in fact work, but I believe what I've specified is the correct rule for which options to put where.

It provides additional security hardening benefits at the cost of some memory and performance. Dynamic linker, ld.so, is a standalone program which can be loaded at any address. This patch adds a configure option, --enable-static-pie, to embed the part of ld.so in static executable to create static position independent executable (static PIE). A static PIE is similar to static executable, but can be loaded at any address without help from a dynamic linker. When --enable-static-pie is used to configure glibc, libc.a is built as PIE and all static executables, including tests, are built as static PIE. The resulting libc.a can be used together with GCC 8 or above to build static PIE with the compiler option, -static-pie. But GCC 8 isn't required to build glibc with --enable-static-pie. Only GCC with PIE support is needed. When an older GCC is used to build glibc with --enable-static-pie, proper input files are passed to linker to create static executables as static PIE, together with "-z text" to prevent dynamic relocations in read-only segments, which are not allowed in static PIE. The following changes are made for static PIE: 1. Add a new function, _dl_relocate_static_pie, to: a. Get the run-time load address. b. Read the dynamic section. c. Perform dynamic relocations. Dynamic linker also performs these steps. But static PIE doesn't load any shared objects. 2. Call _dl_relocate_static_pie at entrance of LIBC_START_MAIN in libc.a. crt1.o, which is used to create dynamic and non-PIE static executables, is updated to include a dummy _dl_relocate_static_pie. rcrt1.o is added to create static PIE, which will link in the real _dl_relocate_static_pie. grcrt1.o is also added to create static PIE with -pg. GCC 8 has been updated to support rcrt1.o and grcrt1.o for static PIE. Static PIE can work on all architectures which support PIE, provided: 1. Target must support accessing of local functions without dynamic relocations, which is needed in start.S to call __libc_start_main with function addresses of __libc_csu_init, __libc_csu_fini and main. All functions in static PIE are local functions. If PIE start.S can't reach main () defined in a shared object, the code sequence: pass address of local_main to __libc_start_main ... local_main: tail call to main via PLT can be used. 2. start.S is updated to check PIC instead SHARED for PIC code path and avoid dynamic relocation, when PIC is defined and SHARED isn't defined, to support static PIE. 3. All assembly codes are updated check PIC instead SHARED for PIC code path to avoid dynamic relocations in read-only sections. 4. All assembly codes are updated check SHARED instead PIC for static symbol name. 5. elf_machine_load_address in dl-machine.h are updated to support static PIE. 6. __brk works without TLS nor dynamic relocations in read-only section so that it can be used by __libc_setup_tls to initializes TLS in static PIE. NB: When glibc is built with GCC defaulted to PIE, libc.a is compiled with -fPIE, regardless if --enable-static-pie is used to configure glibc. When glibc is configured with --enable-static-pie, libc.a is compiled with -fPIE, regardless whether GCC defaults to PIE or not. The same libc.a can be used to build both static executable and static PIE. There is no need for separate PIE copy of libc.a. On x86-64, the normal static sln: text data bss dec hex filename 625425 8284 5456 639165 9c0bd elf/sln the static PIE sln: text data bss dec hex filename 657626 20636 5392 683654 a6e86 elf/sln The code size is increased by 5% and the binary size is increased by 7%. Linker requirements to build glibc with --enable-static-pie: 1. Linker supports --no-dynamic-linker to remove PT_INTERP segment from static PIE. 2. Linker can create working static PIE. The x86-64 linker needs the fix for https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21782 The i386 linker needs to be able to convert "movl main@GOT(%ebx), %eax" to "leal main@GOTOFF(%ebx), %eax" if main is defined locally. Binutils 2.29 or above are OK for i686 and x86-64. But linker status for other targets need to be verified. 3. Linker should resolve undefined weak symbols to 0 in static PIE: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22269 4. Many ELF backend linkers incorrectly check bfd_link_pic for TLS relocations, which should check bfd_link_executable instead: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22263 Tested on aarch64, i686 and x86-64.

* Remove --with-fp / --without-fp.Joseph Myers2017-12-121-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a configure option --without-fp that specifies that nofpu sysdeps directories should be used instead of fpu directories. For most glibc configurations, this option is of no use: either there is no valid nofpu variant of that configuration, or there are no fpu or nofpu sysdeps directories for that processor and so the option does nothing. For a few configurations, if you are using a soft-float compiler this option is required, and failing to use it generally results in compilation errors from inline asm using unavailable floating-point instructions. We're moving away from --with-cpu to configuring glibc based on how the compiler generates code, and it is natural to do so for --without-fp as well; in most cases the soft-float and hard-float ABIs are incompatible so you have no hope of building a working glibc with an inappropriately configured compiler or libgcc. This patch eliminates --without-fp, replacing it entirely by automatic configuration based on the compiler. Configurations for which this is relevant (coldfire / mips / powerpc32 / sh) define a variable with_fp_cond in their preconfigure fragments (under the same conditions under which those fragments do anything); this is a preprocessor conditional which the toplevel configure script then uses in a test to determine which sysdeps directories to use. The config.make with-fp variable remains. It's used only by powerpc (sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/Makefile) to add -mhard-float to various flags variables. For powerpc, -mcpu= options can imply use of soft-float. That could be an issue if you want to build for e.g. 476fp, but are using --with-cpu=476 because there isn't a 476fp sysdeps directory. If in future we eliminate --with-cpu and replace it entirely by testing the compiler, it would be natural at that point to eliminate that code as well (as the user should then just use a compiler defaulting to 476fp and the 476 sysdeps directory would be used automatically). Tested for x86_64, and tested with build-many-glibcs.py that installed shared libraries are unchanged by this patch. * configure.ac (--with-fp): Remove configure option. (with_fp_cond): New variable. (libc_cv_with_fp): New configure test.

* plural.c: improve reproducibilityJuro Bystricky2017-11-301-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a subtle non-determinism when building glibc. This depends on whether the glibc is built using the distibuted file intl/plural.c or built using the generated file intl/plural.c. These two files (intl/plural.c generated vs. distributed) are slightly different, hence we may end up with slightly different libraries. Originally, having "bison" installed was optional. So if "bison" was not present, we always built libraries with the distributed plural.c. If bison was installed, we *** may have *** replaced the distributed file plural.c with a new plural.c generated from plural.y. if the timestamps triggered this rule: plural.c plural.y $(BISON) $(BISONFLAGS) $@ $^ Given that timestamps are not preserved in GIT repositories, the above rule is not reliable without explicitly touching plural.c or plural.y. In other words, the rule may or may not have fired. In summary: there are two distinct sources of non-determinism: 1. Having "bison" installed or not 2. Having "bison" installed but timestamps poorly defined. This patch fixes this by requiring "bison" being installed and by always generating intl/plural.c from intl/plural.y. (This is achieved by simply removing checked-in intl/plural.c) [BZ #22432] * configure.ac (BISON): Require to be present. * configure: Regenerated. * intl/Makefile (generated): Add plural.c.

* Remove add-ons mechanism.Joseph Myers2017-10-051-17/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | glibc has an add-ons mechanism to allow additional software to be integrated into the glibc build. Such add-ons may be within the glibc source tree, or outside it at a path passed to the --enable-add-ons configure option. localedata and crypt were once add-ons, distributed in separate release tarballs, but long since stopped using that mechanism. Linuxthreads was always an add-on. Ports spent some time as an add-on with separate release tarballs, then was first moved into the glibc source tree, then had its sysdeps files moved into the main sysdeps hierarchy so the add-ons mechanism was no longer used. NPTL spent some time as an add-on in the main glibc tree before stopping using the add-on mechanism. libidn used to have separate release tarballs but no longer does so, but still uses the add-ons mechanism within the glibc source tree. Various other software has supported building with the add-ons mechanism at times in the past, but I don't think any is still widely used. Add-ons involve significant, little-used complexity in the glibc build system, and make it hard to understand what the space of possible glibc configurations is. This patch removes the add-ons mechanism. libidn is now built via the Subdirs mechanism to cause any configuration using sysdeps/unix/inet to build libidn; HAVE_LIBIDN (which effectively means shared libraries are available) is now defined via sysdeps/unix/inet/configure. Various references to add-ons around the source tree are removed (in the case of maint.texi, the example list of sysdeps directories is still very out of date). Externally maintained ports should now put their files in the normal sysdeps directory structure rather than being arranged as add-ons; they probably need to change e.g. elf.h anyway, rather than actually being able to work just as a drop-in subtree. Hurd libpthread should be arranged similarly to NPTL, so some files might go in a hurd-pthreads (or similar) top-level directory in glibc, while sysdeps files should go in the normal sysdeps directory structure (possibly in hurd or hurd-pthreads subdirectories, just as there are nptl subdirectories in the sysdeps tree).
