* elf: Fix fences in _dl_find_object_update (bug 28745)Florian Weimer2022-01-071-9/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As explained in Hans Boehm, Can Seqlocks Get Along with Programming Language Memory Models?, an acquire fence is needed in _dlfo_read_success. The lack of a fence resulted in an observable bug on powerpc64le compile-time load reordering. The fence in _dlfo_mappings_begin_update has been reordered, turning the fence/store sequence into a release MO store equivalent. Relaxed MO loads are used on the reader side, and relaxed MO stores on the writer side for the shared data, to avoid formal data races. This is just to be conservative; it should not actually be necessary given how the data is used. This commit also fixes the test run time. The intent was to run it for 3 seconds, but 0.3 seconds was enough to uncover the bug very occasionally (while 3 seconds did not reliably show the bug on every test run).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 7061 files FOO. I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h, support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not. remote: *** 912-#endif remote: *** 913: remote: *** 914- remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found ... remote: *** error: sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/statx_cp.c: trailing lines
* elf: Add _dl_find_object functionFlorian Weimer2021-12-281-0/+115
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.
