* Linux: Cleanups after librt moveFlorian Weimer2021-06-281-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | librt.so is no longer installed for PTHREAD_IN_LIBC, and tests are not linked against it. $(librt) is introduced globally for shared tests that need to be linked for both PTHREAD_IN_LIBC and !PTHREAD_IN_LIBC. GLIBC_PRIVATE symbols that were needed during the transition are removed again. Reviewed-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com>
* Install shared objects under their ABI namesFlorian Weimer2021-06-281-8/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, the installed objects were named like libc-2.33.so, and the ABI soname libc.so.6 was just a symbolic link. The Makefile targets to install these symbolic links are no longer needed after this, so they are removed with this commit. The more general $(make-link) command (which invokes scripts/rellns-sh) is retained because other symbolic links are still needed.

* elf: Disable most of TLS modid gaps processing [BZ #27135]Florian Weimer2021-06-253-6/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Revert "elf: Fix DTV gap reuse logic [BZ #27135]" This reverts commit 572bd547d57a39b6cf0ea072545dc4048921f4c3. It turns out that the _dl_next_tls_modid in _dl_map_object_from_fd keeps returning the same modid over and over again if there is a gap and more than TLS-using module is loaded in one dlopen call. This corrupts TLS data structures. The bug is still present after a revert, but empirically it is much more difficult to trigger (because it involves a dlopen failure).
* elf: Fix glibc-hwcaps priorities with cache flags mismatches [BZ #27046]Florian Weimer2021-06-251-64/+60
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If lib->flags (in the cache) did not match GLRO (dl_correct_cache_id), searching for further glibc-hwcaps entries did not happen, and it was possible that the best glibc-hwcaps was not found. By accident, this causes a test failure for elf/tst-glibc-hwcaps-prepend-cache on armv7l. This commit changes the cache lookup logic to continue searching if (a) no match has been found, (b) a named glibc-hwcaps match has been found(), or (c) non-glibc-hwcaps match has been found and the entry flags and cache default flags do not match. _DL_CACHE_DEFAULT_ID is used instead of GLRO (dl_correct_cache_id) because the latter is only written once on i386 if loading of libc.so.5 libraries is selected, so GLRO (dl_correct_cache_id) should probably removed in a future change.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Consolidate all hooks structures into a single one. There are no static dlopen ABI concerns because glibc 2.34 already comes with substantial ABI-incompatible changes in this area. (Static dlopen requires the exact same dynamic glibc version that was used for static linking.) The new approach uses a pointer to the hooks structure into _rtld_global_ro and initalizes it in __rtld_static_init. This avoids a back-and-forth with various callback functions.

* nptl: Eliminate the __static_tls_size, __static_tls_align_m1 variablesFlorian Weimer2021-05-211-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use the __nptl_tls_static_size_for_stack inline function instead, and the GLRO (dl_tls_static_align) value directly. The computation of GLRO (dl_tls_static_align) in _dl_determine_tlsoffset ensures that the alignment is at least TLS_TCB_ALIGN, which at least STACK_ALIGN (see allocate_stack). Therefore, the additional rounding-up step is removed. ALso move the initialization of the default stack size from __pthread_initialize_minimal_internal to __pthread_early_init. This introduces an extra system call during single-threaded startup, but this simplifies the initialization sequence. No locking is needed around the writes to __default_pthread_attr because the process is single-threaded at this point. Reviewed-by: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>

* elf: Fix DTV gap reuse logic [BZ #27135]Szabolcs Nagy2021-05-113-15/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For some reason only dlopen failure caused dtv gaps to be reused. It is possible that the intent was to never reuse modids for a different module, but after dlopen failure all gaps are reused not just the ones caused by the unfinished dlopened. So the code has to handle reused modids already which seems to work, however the data races at thread creation and tls access (see bug 19329 and bug 27111) may be more severe if slots are reused so this is scheduled after those fixes. I think fixing the races are not simpler if reuse is disallowed and reuse has other benefits, so set GL(dl_tls_dtv_gaps) whenever entries are removed from the middle of the slotinfo list. The value does not have to be correct: incorrect true value causes the next modid query to do a slotinfo walk, incorrect false will leave gaps and new entries are added at the end. Fixes bug 27135.

The number of created threads during dlopen depends on filesystem speed and hardware, but at most 3 threads are alive at a time to limit resource usage.

* elf: Use relaxed atomics for racy accesses [BZ #19329]Szabolcs Nagy2021-05-113-16/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a follow up patch to the fix for bug 19329. This adds relaxed MO atomics to accesses that were previously data races but are now race conditions, and where relaxed MO is sufficient. The race conditions all follow the pattern that the write is behind the dlopen lock, but a read can happen concurrently (e.g. during tls access) without holding the lock. For slotinfo entries the read value only matters if it reads from a synchronized write in dlopen or dlclose, otherwise the related dtv entry is not valid to access so it is fine to leave it in an inconsistent state. The same applies for GL(dl_tls_max_dtv_idx) and GL(dl_tls_generation), but there the algorithm relies on the fact that the read of the last synchronized write is an increasing value.

* elf: Fix data races in pthread_create and TLS access [BZ #19329]Szabolcs Nagy2021-05-111-16/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | DTV setup at thread creation (_dl_allocate_tls_init) is changed to take the dlopen lock, GL(dl_load_lock). Avoiding data races here without locks would require design changes: the map that is accessed for static TLS initialization here may be concurrently freed by dlclose. That use after free may be solved by only locking around static TLS setup or by ensuring dlclose does not free modules with static TLS, however currently every link map with TLS has to be accessed at least to see if it needs static TLS. And even if that's solved, still a lot of atomics would be needed to synchronize DTV related globals without a lock. So fix both bug 19329 and bug 27111 with a lock that prevents DTV setup running concurrently with dlopen or dlclose. _dl_update_slotinfo at TLS access still does not use any locks so CONCURRENCY NOTES are added to explain the synchronization. The early exit from the slotinfo walk when max_modid is reached is not strictly necessary, but does not hurt either. An incorrect acquire load was removed from _dl_resize_dtv: it did not synchronize with any release store or fence and synchronization is now handled separately at thread creation and TLS access time. There are still a number of racy read accesses to globals that will be changed to relaxed MO atomics in a followup patch. This should not introduce regressions compared to existing behaviour and avoid cluttering the main part of the fix. Not all TLS access related data races got fixed here: there are additional races at lazy tlsdesc relocations see bug 27137. Reviewed-by: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When parse_tunables tries to erase a tunable marked as SXID_ERASE for setuid programs, it ends up setting the envvar string iterator incorrectly, because of which it may parse the next tunable incorrectly. Given that currently the implementation allows malformed and unrecognized tunables pass through, it may even allow SXID_ERASE tunables to go through. This change revamps the SXID_ERASE implementation so that: - Only valid tunables are written back to the tunestr string, because of which children of SXID programs will only inherit a clean list of identified tunables that are not SXID_ERASE. - Unrecognized tunables get scrubbed off from the environment and subsequently from the child environment. - This has the side-effect that a tunable that is not identified by the setxid binary, will not be passed on to a non-setxid child even if the child could have identified that tunable.

Add comparison helpers that take tunable types into account and use them to do comparison instead.
