* Update copyright dates not handled by scripts/update-copyrights.Paul Eggert2021-01-025-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Eggert2021-01-02267-268/+268
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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

* elf: Add a tunable to control use of tagged memoryRichard Earnshaw2020-12-211-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | Add a new glibc tunable: mem.tagging. This is a decimal constant in the range 0-255 but used as a bit-field. Bit 0 enables use of tagged memory in the malloc family of functions. Bit 1 enables precise faulting of tag failure on platforms where this can be controlled. Other bits are currently unused, but if set will cause memory tag checking for the current process to be enabled in the kernel.
* Replace __libc_multiple_libcs with __libc_initial flagFlorian Weimer2020-12-163-8/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change sbrk to fail for !__libc_initial (in the generic implementation). As a result, sbrk is (relatively) safe to use for the __libc_initial case (from the main libc). It is therefore no longer necessary to avoid using it in that case (or updating the brk cache), and the __libc_initial flag does not need to be updated as part of dlmopen or static dlopen. As before, direct brk system calls on Linux may lead to memory corruption. Reviewed-by: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>
* elf: Record libc.so link map when it is the main program (bug 20972)Florian Weimer2020-12-151-0/+11

* elf: Fix failure handling in _dl_map_object_from_fdSzabolcs Nagy2020-12-151-10/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The failure paths in _dl_map_object_from_fd did not clean every potentially allocated resource up. Handle l_phdr, l_libname and mapped segments in the common failure handling code. There are various bits that may not be cleaned properly on failure (e.g. executable stack, incomplete dl_map_segments) fixing those need further changes.

* elf: inline lose for error handlingSzabolcs Nagy2020-12-151-48/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | _dl_map_object_from_fd has complex error handling with cleanups. It was managed by a separate function to avoid code bloat at every failure case, but since the code was changed to use gotos there is no longer such code bloat from inlining. Maintaining a separate error handling function is harder as it needs to access local state which has to be passed down. And the same lose function was used in open_verify which is error prone. The goto labels are changed since there is no longer a call. The new code generates slightly smaller binary. Reviewed-by: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>

* elf: Include libc.so.6 as main program in dependency sort (bug 20972)Florian Weimer2020-12-113-2/+43
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | _dl_map_object_deps always sorts the initially loaded object first during dependency sorting. This means it is relocated last in dl_open_worker. This results in crashes in IFUNC resolvers without lazy bindings if libraries are preloaded that refer to IFUNCs in libc.so.6: the resolvers are called when libc.so.6 has not been relocated yet, so references to _rtld_global_ro etc. crash. The fix is to check against the libc.so.6 link map recorded by the __libc_early_init framework, and let it participate in the dependency sort. This fixes bug 20972.

* elf: Pass the fd to note processingSzabolcs Nagy2020-12-112-7/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | To handle GNU property notes on aarch64 some segments need to be mmaped again, so the fd of the loaded ELF module is needed. When the fd is not available (kernel loaded modules), then -1 is passed. The fd is passed to both _dl_process_pt_gnu_property and _dl_process_pt_note for consistency. Target specific note processing functions are updated accordingly. Reviewed-by: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>
* elf: Move note processing after l_phdr is updatedSzabolcs Nagy2020-12-111-0/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Program headers are processed in two pass: after the first pass load segments are mmapped so in the second pass target specific note processing logic can access the notes. The second pass is moved later so various link_map fields are set up that may be useful for note processing such as l_phdr. The second pass should be before the fd is closed so that is available.

* elf: Add glibc-hwcaps subdirectory support to ld.so cache processingFlorian Weimer2020-12-0410-3/+508
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This recognizes the DL_CACHE_HWCAP_EXTENSION flag in cache entries, and picks the supported cache entry with the highest priority. The elf/tst-glibc-hwcaps-prepend-cache test documents a non-desired aspect of the current cache implementation: If the cache selects a DSO that does not exist on disk, _dl_map_object falls back to open_path, which may or may not find an alternative implementation. This is an existing limitation that also applies to the legacy hwcaps processing for ld.so.cache. Reviewed-by: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>

* elf: Implement tail merging of strings in ldconfigFlorian Weimer2020-12-042-39/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This simplifies the string table construction in elf/cache.c because there is no more need to keep track of offsets explicitly; the string table implementation does this internally. This change slightly reduces the size of the cache on disk. The file format does not change as a result. The strings are null-terminated, without explicit length, so tail merging is transparent to readers. Reviewed-by: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>
* elf: Implement a string table for ldconfig, with tail mergingFlorian Weimer2020-12-045-1/+488
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This will be used in ldconfig to reduce the ld.so.cache size slightly. Tail merging is an optimization where a pointer points into another string if the first string is a suffix of the second string. The hash function FNV-1a was chosen because it is simple and achieves good dispersion even for short strings (so that the hash table bucket count can be a power of two). It is clearly superior to the hsearch hash and the ELF hash in this regard. The hash table uses chaining for collision resolution. Reviewed-by: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>

* elf: Add glibc-hwcaps support for LD_LIBRARY_PATHFlorian Weimer2020-12-0415-28/+769
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This hacks non-power-set processing into _dl_important_hwcaps. Once the legacy hwcaps handling goes away, the subdirectory handling needs to be reworked, but it is premature to do this while both approaches are still supported. ld.so supports two new arguments, --glibc-hwcaps-prepend and --glibc-hwcaps-mask. Each accepts a colon-separated list of glibc-hwcaps subdirectory names. The prepend option adds additional subdirectories that are searched first, in the specified order. The mask option restricts the automatically selected subdirectories to those listed in the option argument. For example, on systems where /usr/lib64 is on the library search path, --glibc-hwcaps-prepend=valgrind:debug causes the dynamic loader to search the directories /usr/lib64/glibc-hwcaps/valgrind and /usr/lib64/glibc-hwcaps/debug just before /usr/lib64 is searched.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We need NO_RTLD_HIDDEN because of the need for PLT calls in ld.so. See Roland's comment in https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15605 "in the Hurd it's crucial that calls like __mmap be the libc ones instead of the rtld-local ones after the bootstrap phase, when the dynamic linker is being used for dlopen and the like." We used to just avoid all hidden use in the rtld ; this commit switches to keeping only those that should use PLT calls, i.e. essentially those defined in sysdeps/mach/hurd/dl-sysdep.c: __assert_fail __assert_perror_fail __*stat64 _exit This fixes a few startup issues, notably the call to __tunable_get_val that is made before PLTs are set up.

* Make elf.h header self contained.Érico Rolim2020-10-281-6/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | The elf/elf.h header is shared, verbatim, by the elfutils project. However, elfutils can be used on systems with libcs other than glibc, making the presence of __BEGIN_DECLS, __END_DECLS and <features.h> in the file something that downstream distros may have to add patches for. Furthermore, this file doesn't declare anything with language linkage, so `extern "C" {}` blocks aren't necessary; it also doesn't have any conditional definitions based on feature test macros, making inclusion of features.h unnecessary.
