* mtrace: Deprecate mallwatch and tr_breakSiddhesh Poyarekar2021-07-031-37/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The variable and function pair appear to provide a way for users to set conditional breakpoints in mtrace when a specific address is returned by the allocator. This can be achieved by using conditional breakpoints in gdb so it is redundant. There is no documentation of this interface in the manual either, so it appears to have been a hack that got added to debug malloc. Deprecate these symbols and do not call tr_break anymore.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Like malloc-check, add generic rules to run all tests in malloc by linking with libmcheck.a so as to provide coverage for mcheck(). Currently the following 12 tests fail: FAIL: malloc/tst-malloc-backtrace-mcheck FAIL: malloc/tst-malloc-fork-deadlock-mcheck FAIL: malloc/tst-malloc-stats-cancellation-mcheck FAIL: malloc/tst-malloc-tcache-leak-mcheck FAIL: malloc/tst-malloc-thread-exit-mcheck FAIL: malloc/tst-malloc-thread-fail-mcheck FAIL: malloc/tst-malloc-usable-static-mcheck FAIL: malloc/tst-malloc-usable-static-tunables-mcheck FAIL: malloc/tst-malloc-usable-tunables-mcheck FAIL: malloc/tst-malloc_info-mcheck FAIL: malloc/tst-memalign-mcheck FAIL: malloc/tst-posix_memalign-mcheck and they have been added to tests-exclude-mcheck for now to keep status quo. At least the last two can be attributed to bugs in mcheck() but I haven't fixed them here since they should be fixed by removing malloc hooks. Others need to be triaged to check if they're due to mcheck bugs or due to actual bugs. Reviewed-by: DJ Delorie <dj@redhat.com>
* posix: Add _Fork [BZ #4737]Adhemerval Zanella2021-06-282-0/+216
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Austin Group issue 62 [1] dropped the async-signal-safe requirement for fork and provided a async-signal-safe _Fork replacement that does not run the atfork handlers. It will be included in the next POSIX standard. It allow to close a long standing issue to make fork AS-safe (BZ#4737). As indicated on the bug, besides the internal lock for the atfork handlers itself; there is no guarantee that the handlers itself will not introduce more AS-safe issues. The idea is synchronize fork with the required internal locks to allow children in multithread processes to use mostly of standard function (even though POSIX states only AS-safe function should be used). On signal handles, _Fork should be used intead and only AS-safe functions should be used. For testing, the new tst-_Fork only check basic usage. I also added a new tst-mallocfork3 which uses the same strategy to check for deadlock of tst-mallocfork2 but using threads instead of subprocesses (and it does deadlock if it replaces _Fork with fork).

* Enable support for GCC 11 -Wmismatched-dealloc.Martin Sebor2021-05-161-4/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To help detect common kinds of memory (and other resource) management bugs, GCC 11 adds support for the detection of mismatched calls to allocation and deallocation functions. At each call site to a known deallocation function GCC checks the set of allocation functions the former can be paired with and, if the two don't match, issues a -Wmismatched-dealloc warning (something similar happens in C++ for mismatched calls to new and delete). GCC also uses the same mechanism to detect attempts to deallocate objects not allocated by any allocation function (or pointers past the first byte into allocated objects) by -Wfree-nonheap-object. This support is enabled for built-in functions like malloc and free. To extend it beyond those, GCC extends attribute malloc to designate a deallocation function to which pointers returned from the allocation function may be passed to deallocate the allocated objects. Another, optional argument designates the positional argument to which the pointer must be passed. This change is the first step in enabling this extended support for Glibc.
* Remove all usage of @BASH@ or ${BASH} in installed files, and hardcode ↵Romain GEISSLER2021-05-122-4/+3

This trivial patch attemps to fix BZ 24106. Basically the bash locally used when building glibc on the host shall not leak on the installed glibc, as the system where it is installed might be different and use another bash location. So I have looked for all occurences of @BASH@ or $(BASH) in installed files, and replaced it by /bin/bash. This was suggested by Florian Weimer in the bug report.

* dlfcn: dlerror needs to call free from the base namespace [BZ #24773]Florian Weimer2021-04-212-7/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | Calling free directly may end up freeing a pointer allocated by the dynamic loader using malloc from libc.so in the base namespace using the allocator from libc.so in a secondary namespace, which results in crashes. This commit redirects the free call through GLRO and the dynamic linker, to reach the correct namespace. It also cleans up the dlerror handling along the way, so that pthread_setspecific is no longer needed (which avoids triggering bug 24774).

* malloc: Use chunk2rawmem throughoutSzabolcs Nagy2021-03-262-26/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The difference between chunk2mem and chunk2rawmem is that the latter does not get the memory tag for the returned pointer. It turns out chunk2rawmem almost always works: The input of chunk2mem is a chunk pointer that is untagged so it can access the chunk header. All memory that is not user allocated heap memory is untagged, which in the current implementation means that it has the 0 tag, but this patch does not rely on the tag value. The patch relies on that chunk operations are either done on untagged chunks or without doing memory access to the user owned part. Internal interface contracts: sysmalloc: Returns untagged memory. _int_malloc: Returns untagged memory. _int_free: Takes untagged memory. _int_memalign: Returns untagged memory. _int_realloc: Takes and returns tagged memory. So only _int_realloc and functions outside this list need care. Alignment checks do not need the right tag and tcache works with untagged memory. tag_at was kept in realloc after an mremap, which is not strictly necessary, since the pointer is only used to retag the memory, but this way the tag is guaranteed to be different from the old tag.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a pure refactoring change that does not affect behaviour. The CHUNK_AVAILABLE_SIZE name was unclear, the memsize name tries to follow the existing convention of mem denoting the allocation that is handed out to the user, while chunk is its internally used container. The user owned memory for a given chunk starts at chunk2mem(p) and the size is memsize(p). It is not valid to use on dumped heap chunks. Moved the definition next to other chunk and mem related macros. Reviewed-by: DJ Delorie <dj@redhat.com>
* malloc: Use mtag_enabled instead of USE_MTAGSzabolcs Nagy2021-03-262-12/+8
| | | | | | | | | Use the runtime check where possible: it should not cause slow down in the !USE_MTAG case since then mtag_enabled is constant false, but it allows compiling the tagging logic so it's less likely to break or diverge when developers only test the !USE_MTAG case.

* malloc: Use branches instead of mtag_granule_maskSzabolcs Nagy2021-03-262-21/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The branches may be better optimized since mtag_enabled is widely used. Granule size larger than a chunk header is not supported since then we cannot have both the chunk header and user area granule aligned. To fix that for targets with large granule, the chunk layout has to change. So code that attempted to handle the granule mask generally was changed. This simplified CHUNK_AVAILABLE_SIZE and the logic in malloc_usable_size. Reviewed-by: DJ Delorie <dj@redhat.com>
* malloc: Change calloc when tagging is disabledSzabolcs Nagy2021-03-261-6/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | When glibc is built with memory tagging support (USE_MTAG) but it is not enabled at runtime (mtag_enabled) then unconditional memset was used even though that can be often avoided. This is for performance when tagging is supported but not enabled. The extra check should have no overhead: tag_new_zero_region already had a runtime check which the compiler can now optimize away.

| | | | | | | | | | The memset api is suboptimal and does not provide much benefit.

* malloc: Use global flag instead of function pointer dispatch for mtagSzabolcs Nagy2021-03-262-52/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A flag check can be faster than function pointers because of how branch prediction and speculation works and it can also remove a layer of indirection when there is a mismatch between the malloc internal tag_* api and __libc_mtag_* target hooks. Memory tagging wrapper functions are moved to malloc.c from arena.c and the logic now checks mmap_enabled. The definition of tag_new_usable is moved after chunk related definitions. This refactoring also allows using mtag_enabled checks instead of USE_MTAG ifdefs when memory tagging support only changes code logic when memory tagging is enabled at runtime. Note: an "if (false)" code block is optimized away even at -O0 by gcc. Reviewed-by: DJ Delorie <dj@redhat.com>

* Support for multiple versions in versioned_symbol, compat_symbolFlorian Weimer2021-03-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This essentially folds compat_symbol_unique functionality into compat_symbol. This change eliminates the need for intermediate aliases for defining multiple symbol versions, for both compat_symbol and versioned_symbol. Some binutils versions do not suport multiple versions per symbol on some targets, so aliases are automatically introduced, similar to what compat_symbol_unique did. To reduce symbol table sizes, a configure check is added to avoid these aliases if they are not needed. The new mechanism works with data symbols as well as function symbols, due to the way an assembler-level redirect is used. It is not compatible with weak symbols for old binutils versions, which is why the definition of __malloc_initialize_hook had to be changed. This is not a loss of functionality because weak symbols do not matter to dynamic linking. The placeholder symbol needs repeating in nptl/libpthread-compat.c now that compat_symbol is used, but that seems more obvious than introducing yet another macro. A subtle difference was that compat_symbol_unique made the symbol global automatically. compat_symbol does not do this, so static had to be removed from the definition of __libpthread_version_placeholder.
