Since malloc debug support moved to a different library
(libc_malloc_debug.so), the glibc.malloc.check requires preloading the
debug library to enable it. It means that suid-debug support has not
been working since 2.34.
To restore its support, it would require to add additional information
and parsing to where to find libc_malloc_debug.so.
It is one thing less that might change AT_SECURE binaries' behavior
due to environment configurations.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.

These functions call the core allocator functions (realloc and malloc
respectively) and are hence guaranteed to allocate memory using the
correct functions when multiple allocators are interposed. Having
these functions interposed in one allocator and not another may result
in confusion, hence discourage interposing them altogether.

Make malloc hooks symbols compat-only so that new applications cannot
link against them and remove the declarations from the API. Also
remove the unused malloc-hooks.h.
Finally, mark all symbols in libc_malloc_debug.so as compat so that
the library cannot be linked against.
Add a note about the deprecation in NEWS.

Remove all malloc hook uses from core malloc functions and move it
into a new library libc_malloc_debug.so. With this, the hooks now no
longer have any effect on the core library.
libc_malloc_debug.so is a malloc interposer that needs to be preloaded
to get hooks functionality back so that the debugging features that
depend on the hooks, i.e. malloc-check, mcheck and mtrace work again.
Without the preloaded DSO these debugging features will be nops.
These features will be ported away from hooks in subsequent patches.
Similarly, legacy applications that need hooks functionality need to
preload libc_malloc_debug.so.
The symbols exported by libc_malloc_debug.so are maintained at exactly
the same version as libc.so.
Finally, static binaries will no longer be able to use malloc
debugging features since they cannot preload the debugging DSO.

Modify __libc_free to save and restore errno, so that

This is a major rewrite of the description of 'crypt', 'getentropy',
and 'getrandom'.
A few highlights of the content changes:
- Throughout the manual, public headers, and user-visible messages,
I replaced the term "password" with "passphrase", the term
"password database" with "user database", and the term
"encrypt(ion)" with "(one-way) hashing" whenever it was applied to
passphrases. I didn't bother making this change in internal code
or tests. The use of the term "password" in ruserpass.c survives,
because that refers to a keyword in netrc files, but it is adjusted
to make this clearer.
There is a note in crypt.texi explaining that they were
traditionally called passwords but single words are not good enough
anymore, and a note in users.texi explaining that actual passphrase
hashes are found in a "shadow" database nowadays.
- There is a new short introduction to the "Cryptographic Functions"
section, explaining how we do not intend to be a general-purpose
cryptography library, and cautioning that there _are_, or have
been, legal restrictions on the use of cryptography in many
countries, without getting into any kind of detail that we can't
promise to keep up to date.
- I added more detail about what a "one-way function" is, and why
they are used to obscure passphrases for storage. I removed the
paragraph saying that systems not connected to a network need no
user authentication, because that's a pretty rare situation
nowadays. (It still says "sometimes it is necessary" to
authenticate the user, though.)
- I added documentation for all of the hash functions that glibc
actually supports, but not for the additional hash functions
supported by libxcrypt. If we're going to keep this manual section
around after the transition is more advanced, it would probably
make sense to add them then.
- There is much more detailed discussion of how to generate a salt,
and the failure behavior for crypt is documented. (Returning an
invalid hash on failure is what libxcrypt does; Solar Designer's
notes say that this was done "for compatibility with old programs
that assume crypt can never fail".)
- As far as I can tell, the header 'crypt.h' is entirely a GNU
invention, and never existed on any other Unix lineage. The
function 'crypt', however, was in Issue 1 of the SVID and is now
in the XSI component of POSIX. I tried to make all of the
@standards annotations consistent with this, but I'm not sure I got
them perfectly right.
- The genpass.c example has been improved to use getentropy instead
of the current time to generate the salt, and to use a SHA-256 hash
instead of MD5. It uses more random bytes than is strictly
necessary because I didn't want to complicate the code with proper
base64 encoding.
- The testpass.c example has three hardwired hashes now, to
demonstrate that different one-way functions produce different
hashes for the same input. It also demonstrates how DES hashing
only pays attention to the first eight characters of the input.
- There is new text explaining in more detail how a CSPRNG differs
from a regular random number generator, and how
getentropy/getrandom are not exactly a CSPRNG. I tried not to make
specific falsifiable claims here. I also tried to make the
blocking/cancellation/error behavior of both getentropy and
getrandom clearer.

This adds system call wrappers for pkey_alloc, pkey_free, pkey_mprotect,
and x86-64 implementations of pkey_get and pkey_set, which abstract over
the PKRU CPU register and hide the actual number of memory protection
keys supported by the CPU. pkey_mprotect with a -1 key is implemented
using mprotect, so it will work even if the kernel does not support the
pkey_mprotect system call.
The system call wrapers use unsigned int instead of unsigned long for
parameters, so that no special treatment for x32 is needed. The flags
argument is currently unused, and the access rights bit mask is limited
to two bits by the current PKRU register layout anyway.

The Summary is now generated from @standards, and syntax-checking is
performed. If invalid @standards syntax is detected, summary.pl will
fail, reporting all errors. Failure and error reporting is disabled
for now, however, since much of the manual is still incomplete
wrt. header and standards annotations.
Note that the sorting order of the Summary has changed; summary.pl
respects the locale, like summary.awk did, but the use of LC_ALL=C is
introduced in the Makefile. Other notable deviations are improved
detection of the annotated elements' names, which are used for
sorting, and improved detection of the @node used to reference into
the manual. The most noticeable difference in the rendered Summary is
that entries may now contain multiple lines, one for each header and
standard combination.
summary.pl accepts a `--help' option, which details the expected

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

Texinfo @vindex commands add entries to the Variable and Constant
Macro Index. Similarly, @items in @vtables are automatically indexed.
A number of @tables exist where all @items are @vindexed or all @items
are variables, but not indexed, suggesting an optimization by
converting such @tables to @vtables and dropping the @vindex.
Using a @vtable provides a context for processing @items whereby it
can be known the @items should have header and standards annotations.
This commit converts @tables of such @items to @vtables in order to
establish a framework for automated processing.
A pleasant consequence of these changes is that @items previously
lacking a @vindex are present in the Variable and Constant Macro Index
now. @vindex entries previously detected by summary.awk will still be
detected as @items with appropriate annotations.
The @vtable of the NSS databases is converted to a @table because 1)
those @items are not variables (and will no longer appear in the
Variable and Constant Macro Index) and 2) they do not need header and
standards annotations, so the incorrect context is fixed.

The manual incorrectly references sbrk as the method used to grow and
shrink heaps and the fact that M_TRIM_THRESHOLD and M_TOP_PAD control
that behavior. In reality, a heap may be grown or shrunk through
multiple methods depending on whether it is the main arena (in which
case sbrk is correct) or not (in which case, there are a number of
strategies including allocating an additional heap to grow an arena
and/or 'mprotect' a region to make it available for allocation).

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.
