* Fix elf/tst-audit25a with default bind now toolchainsSzabolcs Nagy2022-02-021-0/+1

* elf: Issue la_symbind for bind-now (BZ #23734)Adhemerval Zanella2022-02-011-1/+88
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The audit symbind callback is not called for binaries built with -Wl,-z,now or when LD_BIND_NOW=1 is used, nor the PLT tracking callbacks (plt_enter and plt_exit) since this would change the expected program semantics (where no PLT is expected) and would have performance implications (such as for BZ#15533). LAV_CURRENT is also bumped to indicate the audit ABI change (where la_symbind flags are set by the loader to indicate no possible PLT trace). To handle powerpc64 ELFv1 function descriptor, _dl_audit_symbind requires to know whether bind-now is used so the symbol value is updated to function text segment instead of the OPD (for lazy binding this is done by PPC64_LOAD_FUNCPTR on _dl_runtime_resolve). Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, aarch64-linux-gnu, powerpc64-linux-gnu. Reviewed-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com> Tested-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com>
* elf: Fix initial-exec TLS access on audit modules (BZ #28096)Adhemerval Zanella2022-02-011-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For audit modules and dependencies with initial-exec TLS, we can not set the initial TLS image on default loader initialization because it would already be set by the audit setup. However, subsequent thread creation would need to follow the default behaviour. This patch fixes it by setting l_auditing link_map field not only for the audit modules, but also for all its dependencies. This is used on _dl_allocate_tls_init to avoid the static TLS initialization at load time. Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, and aarch64-linux-gnu.

* Fix glibc 2.34 ABI omission (missing GLIBC_2.34 in dynamic loader)Florian Weimer2022-01-271-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The glibc 2.34 release really should have added a GLIBC_2.34 symbol to the dynamic loader. With it, we could move functions such as dlopen or pthread_key_create that work on process-global state into the dynamic loader (once we have fixed a longstanding issue with static linking). Without the GLIBC_2.34 symbol, yet another new symbol version would be needed because old glibc will fail to load binaries due to the missing symbol version in ld.so that newly linked programs will require.

* elf: Add _dl_find_object functionFlorian Weimer2021-12-281-4/+51
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It can be used to speed up the libgcc unwinder, and the internal _dl_find_dso_for_object function (which is used for caller identification in dlopen and related functions, and in dladdr). _dl_find_object is in the internal namespace due to bug 28503. If libgcc switches to _dl_find_object, this namespace issue will be fixed. It is located in libc for two reasons: it is necessary to forward the call to the static libc after static dlopen, and there is a link ordering issue with -static-libgcc and libgcc_eh.a because libc.so is not a linker script that includes ld.so in the glibc build tree (so that GCC's internal -lc after libgcc_eh.a does not pick up ld.so). It is necessary to do the i386 customization in the sysdeps/x86/bits/dl_find_object.h header shared with x86-64 because otherwise, multilib installations are broken. The implementation uses software transactional memory, as suggested by Torvald Riegel. Two copies of the supporting data structures are used, also achieving full async-signal-safety.

* elf: Do not fail for failed dlmopen on audit modules (BZ #28061)Adhemerval Zanella2021-12-281-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The dl_main sets the LM_ID_BASE to RT_ADD just before starting to add load new shared objects. The state is set to RT_CONSISTENT just after all objects are loaded. However if a audit modules tries to dlmopen an inexistent module, the _dl_open will assert that the namespace is in an inconsistent state. This is different than dlopen, since first it will not use LM_ID_BASE and second _dl_map_object_from_fd is the sole responsible to set and reset the r_state value. So the assert on _dl_open can not really be seen if the state is consistent, since _dt_main resets it. This patch removes the assert.

A new internal flag __RTLD_VDSO is added that acts as __RTLD_OPENEXEC to allocate the required 'struct auditstate' extra space for the 'struct link_map'. The return value from the callback is currently ignored, since there is no PLT call involved by glibc when using the vDSO, neither the vDSO are exported directly.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The rtld-audit interfaces introduces a slowdown due to enabling profiling instrumentation (as if LD_AUDIT implied LD_PROFILE). However, instrumenting is only necessary if one of audit libraries provides PLT callbacks (la_pltenter or la_pltexit symbols). Otherwise, the slowdown can be avoided. The following patch adjusts the logic that enables profiling to iterate over all audit modules and check if any of those provides a PLT hook. To keep la_symbind to work even without PLT callbacks, _dl_fixup now calls the audit callback if the modules implements it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the first of a 2-part patch set that fixes slow DSO sorting behavior in the dynamic loader, as reported in BZ #17645. In order to facilitate such a large modification to the dynamic loader, this first patch implements a testing framework for validating shared object sorting behavior, to enable comparison between old/new sorting algorithms, and any later enhancements. This testing infrastructure consists of a Python script scripts/dso-ordering-test.py' which takes in a description language, consisting of strings that describe a set of link dependency relations between DSOs, and generates testcase programs and Makefile fragments to automatically test the described situation, for example: a->b->c->d # four objects linked one after another a->[bc]->d;b->c # a depends on b and c, which both depend on d, # b depends on c (b,c linked to object a in fixed order) a->b->c;{+a;%a;-a} # a, b, c serially dependent, main program uses # dlopen/dlsym/dlclose on object a a->b->c;{}!->[abc] # a, b, c serially dependent; multiple tests generated # to test all permutations of a, b, c ordering linked # to main program (Above is just a short description of what the script can do, more documentation is in the script comments.) Two files containing several new tests, elf/dso-sort-tests-[12].def are added, including test scenarios for BZ #15311 and Redhat issue #1162810 [1]. Due to the nature of dynamic loader tests, where the sorting behavior and test output occurs before/after main(), generating testcases to use support/test-driver.c does not suffice to control meaningful timeout for ld.so. Therefore a new utility program 'support/test-run-command', based on test-driver.c/support_test_main.c has been added. This does the same testcase control, but for a program specified through a command-line rather than at the source code level. This utility is used to run the dynamic loader testcases generated by dso-ordering-test.py.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove all malloc hook uses from core malloc functions and move it into a new library libc_malloc_debug.so. With this, the hooks now no longer have any effect on the core library. libc_malloc_debug.so is a malloc interposer that needs to be preloaded to get hooks functionality back so that the debugging features that depend on the hooks, i.e. malloc-check, mcheck and mtrace work again. Without the preloaded DSO these debugging features will be nops. These features will be ported away from hooks in subsequent patches. Similarly, legacy applications that need hooks functionality need to preload libc_malloc_debug.so. The symbols exported by libc_malloc_debug.so are maintained at exactly the same version as libc.so. Finally, static binaries will no longer be able to use malloc debugging features since they cannot preload the debugging DSO.
