* Add reallocarray functionDennis Wölfing2017-05-301-0/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The reallocarray function is an extension from OpenBSD. It is an integer-overflow-safe replacement for realloc(p, X*Y) and malloc(X*Y) (realloc(NULL, X*Y)). It can therefore help in preventing certain security issues in code. This is an updated version of a patch originally submitted by Rüdiger Sonderfeld in May 2014 [1]. Checked on i686-linux-gnu and x86_64-linux-gnu.

* elf: dl-minimal malloc needs to respect fundamental alignmentFlorian Weimer2016-08-031-0/+53
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The dynamic linker currently uses __libc_memalign for TLS-related allocations. The goal is to switch to malloc instead. If the minimal malloc follows the ABI fundamental alignment, we can assume that malloc provides this alignment, and thus skip explicit alignment in a few cases as an optimization. It was requested on libc-alpha that MALLOC_ALIGNMENT should be used, although this results in wasted space if MALLOC_ALIGNMENT is larger than the fundamental alignment. (The dynamic linker cannot assume that the non-minimal malloc will provide an alignment of MALLOC_ALIGNMENT; the ABI provides _Alignof (max_align_t) only.)

* malloc: Run fork handler as late as possible [BZ #19431]Florian Weimer2016-04-141-0/+32
Previously, a thread M invoking fork would acquire locks in this order: (M1) malloc arena locks (in the registered fork handler) (M2) libio list lock A thread F invoking flush (NULL) would acquire locks in this order: (F1) libio list lock (F2) individual _IO_FILE locks A thread G running getdelim would use this order: (G1) _IO_FILE lock (G2) malloc arena lock After executing (M1), (F1), (G1), none of the threads can make progress. This commit changes the fork lock order to: (M'1) libio list lock (M'2) malloc arena locks It explicitly encodes the lock order in the implementations of fork, and does not rely on the registration order, thus avoiding the deadlock.
