These are a grab bag of changes where the testsuite was using internal
symbols of some variety, but this was straightforward to fix, and the
fixed code should work with or without the change to compile the
testsuite under _ISOMAC.
Four of these are just more #include adjustments, but I want to highlight
sysdeps/powerpc/fpu/tst-setcontext-fpscr.c, which appears to have been
written before the advent of sys/auxv.h. I think a big chunk of this file
could be replaced by a simple call to getauxval, but I'll let someone who
actually has a powerpc machine to test on do that.
dlfcn/tst-dladdr.c was including ldsodefs.h just so it could use
DL_LOOKUP_ADDRESS to print an additional diagnostic; as requested by Carlos,
I have removed this.
math/test-misc.c was using #ifndef NO_LONG_DOUBLE, which is an internal
configuration macro, to decide whether to do certain tests involving
'long double'. I changed the test to #if LDBL_MANT_DIG > DBL_MANT_DIG
instead, which uses only public float.h macros and is equivalent on
all supported platforms. (Note that NO_LONG_DOUBLE doesn't mean 'the
compiler doesn't support long double', it means 'long double is the
same as double'.)
tst-writev.c has a configuration macro 'ARTIFICIAL_LIMIT' that the
Makefiles are expected to define, and sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Makefile
was using the internal __getpagesize in the definition; changed to
sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE) which is the POSIX equivalent.
ia64-linux doesn't supply 'clone', only '__clone2', which is not
defined in the public headers(!) All the other clone tests have local
extern declarations of __clone2, but tst-clone.c doesn't; it was
getting away with this because include/sched.h does declare __clone2.
* nss/tst-cancel-getpwuid_r.c: Include nss.h.
* string/strcasestr.c: No need to include config.h.
* sysdeps/powerpc/fpu/tst-setcontext-fpscr.c: Include
sys/auxv.h. Don't include sysdep.h.
* sysdeps/powerpc/tst-set_ppr.c: Don't include dl-procinfo.h.
* dlfcn/tst-dladdr.c: Don't include ldsodefs.h. Don't use
DL_LOOKUP_ADDRESS.
* math/test-misc.c: Instead of testing NO_LONG_DOUBLE, test whether
LDBL_MANT_DIG is greater than DBL_MANT_DIG.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Makefile (CFLAGS-tst-writev.c): Use
sysconf (_SC_PAGESIZE) instead of __getpagesize in definition
of ARTIFICIAL_LIMIT.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tst-clone.c [__ia64__]: Add extern
declaration of __clone2.

The recently introduced TLS variables in the thread-local destructor
implementation (__cxa_thread_atexit_impl) used the default GD access
model, resulting in a call to __tls_get_addr. This causes a deadlock
with recent changes to the way TLS is initialized because DTV
allocations are delayed and hence despite knowing the offset to the
variable inside its TLS block, the thread has to take the global rtld
lock to safely update the TLS offset.
This causes deadlocks when a thread is instantiated and joined inside
a destructor of a dlopen'd DSO. The correct long term fix is to
somehow not take the lock, but that will need a lot deeper change set
to alter the way in which the big rtld lock is used.
Instead, this patch just eliminates the call to __tls_get_addr for the
thread-local variables inside libc.so, libpthread.so and rtld by
building all of their units with -mtls-model=initial-exec.
There were concerns that the static storage for TLS is limited and
hence we should not be using it. Additionally, dynamically loaded
modules may result in libc.so looking for this static storage pretty
late in static binaries. Both concerns are valid when using TLSDESC
since that is where one may attempt to allocate a TLS block from
static storage for even those variables that are not IE. They're not
very strong arguments for the traditional TLS model though, since it
assumes that the static storage would be used sparingly and definitely
not by default. Hence, for now this would only theoretically affect
ARM architectures.
The impact is hence limited to statically linked binaries that dlopen
modules that in turn load libc.so, all that on arm hardware. It seems
like a small enough impact to justify fixing the larger problem that
currently affects everything everywhere.
This still does not solve the original problem completely. That is,
it is still possible to deadlock on the big rtld lock with a small
tweak to the test case attached to this patch. That problem is
however not a regression in 2.22 and hence could be tackled as a
separate project. The test case is picked up as is from Alex's patch.
This change has been tested to verify that it does not cause any
issues on x86_64.
ChangeLog:
[BZ #18457]
* nptl/Makefile (tests): New test case tst-join7.
(modules-names): New test case module tst-join7mod.
* nptl/tst-join7.c: New file.
* nptl/tst-join7mod.c: New file.
* Makeconfig (tls-model): Pass -ftls-model=initial-exec for
all translation units in libc.so, libpthread.so and rtld.
