* tunables, aarch64: New tunable to override cpuSiddhesh Poyarekar2017-06-301-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a new tunable (glibc.tune.cpu) to override CPU identification on aarch64. This is useful in two cases: one where it is desirable to pretend to be another CPU for purposes of testing or because routines written for that CPU are beneficial for specific workloads and second where the underlying kernel does not support emulation of MRS to get the MIDR of the CPU. * elf/dl-tunables.h (tunable_is_name): Move from... * elf/dl-tunables.c (is_name): ... here. (parse_tunables, __tunables_init): Adjust. * manual/tunables.texi: Document glibc.tune.cpu. * sysdeps/aarch64/dl-tunables.list: New file. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64/cpu-features.c (struct cpu_list): New type. (cpu_list): New list of CPU names and their MIDR. (get_midr_from_mcpu): New function. (init_cpu_features): Override MIDR if necessary.
* tunables: Clean up hooks to get and set tunablesSiddhesh Poyarekar2017-06-071-19/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The TUNABLE_SET_VALUE and family of macros (and my later attempt to add a TUNABLE_GET) never quite went together very well because the overall interface was not clearly defined. This patch is an attempt to do just that. This patch consolidates the API to two simple sets of macros, TUNABLE_GET* and TUNABLE_SET*. If TUNABLE_NAMESPACE is defined, TUNABLE_GET takes just the tunable name, type and a (optionally NULL) callback function to get the value of the tunable. The callback function, if non-NULL, is called if the tunable was externally set (i.e. via GLIBC_TUNABLES or any future mechanism). For example: val = TUNABLE_GET (check, int32_t, check_callback) returns the value of the glibc.malloc.check tunable (assuming TUNABLE_NAMESPACE is set to malloc) as an int32_t into VAL after calling check_callback. Likewise, TUNABLE_SET can be used to set the value of the tunable, although this is currently possible only in the dynamic linker before it relocates itself. For example: TUNABLE_SET (check, int32_t, 2) will set glibc.malloc.check to 2. Of course, this is not possible since we set (or read) glibc.malloc.check long after it is relocated. To access or set a tunable outside of TUNABLE_NAMESPACE, use the TUNABLE_GET_FULL and TUNABLE_SET_FULL macros, which have the following prototype: TUNABLE_GET_FULL (glibc, tune, hwcap_mask, uint64_t, NULL) TUNABLE_SET_FULL (glibc, tune, hwcap_mask, uint64_t, 0xffff) In future the tunable list may get split into mutable and immutable tunables where mutable tunables can be modified by the library and userspace after relocation as well and TUNABLE_SET will be more useful than it currently is. However whenever we actually do that split, we will have to ensure that the mutable tunables are protected with locks. * elf/Versions (__tunable_set_val): Rename to __tunable_get_val. * elf/dl-tunables.c: Likewise. (do_tunable_update_val): New function. (__tunable_set_val): New function. (__tunable_get_val): Call CB only if the tunable was externally initialized.

* Make __tunables_init hidden and avoid PLTH.J. Lu2017-05-251-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Since __tunables_init is internal to ld.so, we should mark it hidden to avoid PLT. We should also avoid PLT when calling __tunable_set_val within ld.so. 2017-05-25 Siddhesh Poyarekar <siddhesh@sourceware.org> H.J.

* tunables: Fix environment variable processing for setuid binaries (bz #21073)Siddhesh Poyarekar2017-02-021-5/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Florian Weimer pointed out that we have three different kinds of environment variables (and hence tunables): 1. Variables that are removed for setxid processes 2. Variables that are ignored in setxid processes but is passed on to child processes 3. Variables that are passed on to child processes all the time Tunables currently only does (2) and (3) when it should be doing (1) for MALLOC_CHECK_. This patch enhances the is_secure flag in tunables to an enum value that can specify which of the above three categories the tunable (and its envvar alias) belongs to. The default is for tunables to be in (1). Hence, all of the malloc tunables barring MALLOC_CHECK_ are explicitly specified to belong to category (2). There were discussions around abolishing category (2) completely but we can do that as a separate exercise in 2.26. Tested on x86_64 to verify that there are no regressions. [BZ #21073] * elf/dl-tunable-types.h (tunable_seclevel_t): New enum. * elf/dl-tunables.c (tunables_strdup): Remove. (get_next_env): Also return the previous envp. (parse_tunables): Erase tunables of category TUNABLES_SECLEVEL_SXID_ERASE. (maybe_enable_malloc_check): Make MALLOC_CHECK_ TUNABLE_SECLEVEL_NONE if /etc/setuid-debug is accessible.

[TUNABLES_FRONTEND != TUNABLES_FRONTEND_valstring]: Erase tunable envvars of category TUNABLES_SECLEVEL_SXID_ERASE. * elf/dl-tunables.h (struct _tunable): Change member is_secure to security_level. * elf/dl-tunables.list: Add security_level annotations for all tunables. * scripts/gen-tunables.awk: Recognize and generate enum values for security_level. * elf/tst-env-setuid.c: New test case. * elf/tst-env-setuid-tunables: new test case. * elf/Makefile (tests-static): Add them.

* Enhance --enable-tunables to select tunables frontend at build timeSiddhesh Poyarekar2016-12-311-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At the GNU Tools Cauldron 2016, the state of the current tunables patchset was considered OK with the addition of a way to select the frontend to be used for the tunables. That is, to avoid being locked in to one type of frontend initially, it should be possible to build tunables with a different frontend with something as simple as a configure switch. To that effect, this patch enhances the --enable-tunables option to accept more values than just 'yes' or 'no'. The current frontend (and default when enable-tunables is 'yes') is called 'valstring', to select the frontend where a single environment variable is set to a colon-separated value string. More such frontends can be added in future. * Makeconfig (have-tunables): Check for non-negative instead of positive. * configure.ac: Add 'valstring' as a valid value for --enable-tunables. * configure: Regenerate. * elf/Makefile (have-tunables): Check for non-negative instead of positive. (CPPFLAGS-dl-tunables.c): Define TUNABLES_FRONTEND for dl-tunables.c. * elf/dl-tunables.c (GLIBC_TUNABLES): Define only when TUNABLES_FRONTEND == TUNABLES_FRONTEND_valstring. (tunables_strdup): Likewise. (disable_tunables): Likewise. (parse_tunables): Likewise. (__tunables_init): Process GLIBC_TUNABLES envvar only when. TUNABLES_FRONTEND == TUNABLES_FRONTEND_valstring. * elf/dl-tunables.h (TUNABLES_FRONTEND_valstring): New macro. (TUNABLES_FRONTEND_yes): New macro, define as TUNABLES_FRONTEND_valstring by default. * manual/install.texi: Document new acceptable values for --enable-tunables. * INSTALL: Regenerate.
* Add framework for tunablesSiddhesh Poyarekar2016-12-311-0/+88
The tunables framework allows us to uniformly manage and expose global variables inside glibc as switches to users. tunables/README has instructions for glibc developers to add new tunables. Tunables support can be enabled by passing the --enable-tunables configure flag to the configure script. This patch only adds a framework and does not pose any limitations on how tunable values are read from the user. It also adds environment variables used in malloc behaviour tweaking to the tunables framework as a PoC of the compatibility interface. * manual/install.texi: Add --enable-tunables option. * INSTALL: Regenerate. * README.tunables: New file. * Makeconfig (CPPFLAGS): Define TOP_NAMESPACE. (before-compile): Generate dl-tunable-list.h early. * config.h.in: Add HAVE_TUNABLES. * config.make.in: Add have-tunables. * configure.ac: Add --enable-tunables option. * configure: Regenerate. * csu/init-first.c (__libc_init_first): Move __libc_init_secure earlier... * csu/init-first.c (LIBC_START_MAIN):... to here. Include dl-tunables.h, libc-internal.h. (LIBC_START_MAIN) [!SHARED]: Initialize tunables for static binaries. * elf/Makefile (dl-routines): Add dl-tunables. * elf/Versions (ld): Add __tunable_set_val to GLIBC_PRIVATE namespace. * elf/dl-support (_dl_nondynamic_init): Unset MALLOC_CHECK_ only when !HAVE_TUNABLES. * elf/rtld.c (process_envvars): Likewise. * elf/dl-sysdep.c [HAVE_TUNABLES]: Include dl-tunables.h (_dl_sysdep_start): Call __tunables_init. * elf/dl-tunable-types.h: New file. * elf/dl-tunables.c: New file. * elf/dl-tunables.h: New file. * elf/dl-tunables.list: New file. * malloc/tst-malloc-usable-static.c: New test case. * malloc/Makefile (tests-static): Add it. * malloc/arena.c [HAVE_TUNABLES]: Include dl-tunables.h.
