* Update copyright dates not handled by scripts/update-copyrights.Paul Eggert2021-01-021-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | I've updated copyright dates in glibc for 2021. This is the patch for the changes not generated by scripts/update-copyrights and subsequent build / regeneration of generated files. As well as the usual annual updates, mainly dates in --version output (minus csu/version.c which previously had to be handled manually but is now successfully updated by update-copyrights), there is a small change to the copyright notice in NEWS which should let NEWS get updated automatically next year. Please remember to include 2021 in the dates for any new files added in future (which means updating any existing uncommitted patches you have that add new files to use the new copyright dates in them).
* Update copyright dates with scripts/update-copyrightsPaul Eggert2021-01-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I used these shell commands: ../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright (cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]") and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning: copyright statement not found" for each of 6694 files FOO. I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this diagnostic from Savannah: remote: *** pre-commit check failed ... remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
* Introduce _FORTIFY_SOURCE=3Siddhesh Poyarekar2020-12-311-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce a new _FORTIFY_SOURCE level of 3 to enable additional fortifications that may have a noticeable performance impact, allowing more fortification coverage at the cost of some performance. With llvm 9.0 or later, this will replace the use of __builtin_object_size with __builtin_dynamic_object_size. __builtin_dynamic_object_size ----------------------------- __builtin_dynamic_object_size is an LLVM builtin that is similar to __builtin_object_size. In addition to what __builtin_object_size does, i.e. replace the builtin call with a constant object size, __builtin_dynamic_object_size will replace the call site with an expression that evaluates to the object size, thus expanding its applicability. In practice, __builtin_dynamic_object_size evaluates these expressions through malloc/calloc calls that it can associate with the object being evaluated. A simple motivating example is below; -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 would miss this and emit memcpy, but -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 with the help of __builtin_dynamic_object_size is able to emit __memcpy_chk with the allocation size expression passed into the function: void *copy_obj (const void *src, size_t alloc, size_t copysize) { void *obj = malloc (alloc); memcpy (obj, src, copysize); return obj; } Limitations ----------- If the object was allocated elsewhere that the compiler cannot see, or if it was allocated in the function with a function that the compiler does not recognize as an allocator then __builtin_dynamic_object_size also returns -1. Further, the expression used to compute object size may be non-trivial and may potentially incur a noticeable performance impact. These fortifications are hence enabled at a new _FORTIFY_SOURCE level to allow developers to make a choice on the tradeoff according to their environment.
* s390x: Require GCC 7.1 or later to build glibc.Stefan Liebler2020-12-171-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GCC 6.5 fails to correctly build ldconfig with recent ld.so.cache commits, e.g.: 785969a047ad2f23f758901c6816422573544453 elf: Implement a string table for ldconfig, with tail merging If glibc is build with gcc 6.5.0: __builtin_add_overflow is used in <glibc>/elf/stringtable.c:stringtable_finalize() which leads to ldconfig failing with "String table is too large". This is also recognizable in following tests: FAIL: elf/tst-glibc-hwcaps-cache FAIL: elf/tst-glibc-hwcaps-prepend-cache FAIL: elf/tst-ldconfig-X FAIL: elf/tst-ldconfig-bad-aux-cache FAIL: elf/tst-ldconfig-ld_so_conf-update FAIL: elf/tst-stringtable See gcc "Bug 98269 - gcc 6.5.0 __builtin_add_overflow() with small uint32_t values incorrectly detects overflow" (https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=98269)
* S390: Derive float_t from FLT_EVAL_METHODMarius Hillenbrand2020-12-091-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | float_t supposedly represents the type that is used to evaluate float expressions internally. While the isa supports single-precision float operations, the port of glibc to s390 incorrectly deferred to the generic definitions which, back then, tied float_t to double. gcc by default evaluates float in single precision, so that scenario violates the C standard (sections 5.2.4.2.2 and 7.12 in C11/C17). With -fexcess-precision=standard, gcc evaluates float in double precision, which aligns with the standard yet at the cost of added conversion instructions. With this patch, we drop the s390-specific definition of float_t and defer to the default behavior, which aligns float_t with the compiler-defined FLT_EVAL_METHOD in a standard-compliant way. Checked on s390x-linux-gnu with 31-bit and 64-bit builds.

* iconv: Accept redundant shift sequences in IBM1364 [BZ #26224]Arjun Shankar2020-11-041-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The IBM1364, IBM1371, IBM1388, IBM1390 and IBM1399 character sets share converter logic (iconvdata/ibm1364.c) which would reject redundant shift sequences when processing input in these character sets. This led to a hang in the iconv program (CVE-2020-27618). This commit adjusts the converter to ignore redundant shift sequences and adds test cases for iconv_prog hangs that would be triggered upon their rejection. This brings the implementation in line with other converters that also ignore redundant shift sequences (e.g. IBM930 etc., fixed in commit 692de4b3960d).

* Move vtimes to a compatibility symbolAdhemerval Zanella2020-10-191-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | I couldn't pinpoint which standard has added it, but no other POSIX system supports it and/or no longer provide it. The 'struct vtimes' also has a lot of drawbacks due its limited internal type size. I couldn't also see find any project that actually uses this symbol, either in some dignostic way (such as sanitizer). So I think it should be safer to just move to compat symbol, instead of deprecated. The idea it to avoid new ports to export such broken interface (riscv32 for instance). Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.

* Linux: Require properly configured /dev/pts for PTYsFlorian Weimer2020-10-071-1/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Current systems do not have BSD terminals, so the fallback code in posix_openpt/getpt does not do anything. Also remove the file system check for /dev/pts. Current systems always have a devpts file system mounted there if /dev/ptmx exists. grantpt is now essentially a no-op. It only verifies that the argument is a ptmx-descriptor.

The features array can be expanded with backward binary compatibility for both .o and .so files. When COMMON_CPUID_INDEX_MAX is increased to support new processor features, __x86_get_cpu_features in the older glibc binaries returns NULL and HAS_CPU_FEATURE/CPU_FEATURE_USABLE return false on the new processor feature. No new symbol version is neeeded. Both CPU_FEATURE_USABLE and HAS_CPU_FEATURE are provided. HAS_CPU_FEATURE can be used to identify processor features. Note: Although GCC has __builtin_cpu_supports, it only supports a subset of <sys/platform/x86.h> and it is equivalent to CPU_FEATURE_USABLE. It doesn't support HAS_CPU_FEATURE.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Register rseq TLS for each thread (including main), and unregister for each thread (excluding main). "rseq" stands for Restartable Sequences. See the rseq(2) man page proposed here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/9/19/647 Those are based on glibc master branch commit 3ee1e0ec5c. The rseq system call was merged into Linux 4.18. The TLS_STATIC_SURPLUS define is increased to leave additional room for dlopen'd initial-exec TLS, which keeps elf/tst-auditmany working. The increase (76 bytes) is larger than 32 bytes because it has not been increased in quite a while. The cost in terms of additional TLS storage is quite significant, but it will also obscure some initial-exec-related dlopen failures.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | On platforms where long double may have two different formats, i.e.: the same format as double (64-bits) or something else (128-bits), building with -mlong-double-128 is the default and function calls in the user program match the name of the function in Glibc. When building with -mlong-double-64, Glibc installed headers redirect such calls to the appropriate function. Likewise, the internals of glibc are now built against IEEE long double. However, the only (minimally) notable usage of long double is difftime. Reviewed-by: Tulio Magno Quites Machado Filho <tuliom@linux.ibm.com>
