* localedef: Add verbose messages for failure paths.Carlos O'Donell2020-04-261-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During testing of localedef running in a minimal container there were several error cases which were hard to diagnose since they appeared as strerror (errno) values printed by the higher level functions. This change adds three new verbose messages for potential failure paths. The new messages give the user the opportunity to use -v and display additional information about why localedef might be failing. I found these messages useful myself while writing a localedef container test for --no-hard-links. Since the changes cleanup the code that handle codeset normalization we add tst-localedef-path-norm which contains many sub-tests to verify the correct expected normalization of codeset strings both when installing to default paths (the only time normalization is enabled) and installing to absolute paths. During the refactoring I created at least one buffer-overflow which valgrind caught, but these tests did not catch because the exec in the container had a very clean heap with zero-initialized memory. However, between valgrind and the tests the results are clean. The new tst-localedef-path-norm passes without regression on x86_64. Change-Id: I28b9f680711ff00252a2cb15625b774cc58ecb9d
* support: Add support_process_state_waitAdhemerval Zanella2020-02-271-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | It allows parent process to wait for child state using a polling strategy over procfs on Linux. The polling is used over ptrace to avoid the need to handle signals on the target pid and to handle some system specific limitation (such as YAMA). The polling has some limitations, such as resource consumption due the procfs read in a loop and the lack of synchronization after the state is obtained. The interface idea is to simplify some sleep synchronization waitid tests and is to reduce timeouts by replacing arbitrary waits.

* Add UNSUPPORTED check in elf/tst-pldd.Stefan Liebler2019-09-181-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The testcase forks a child process and runs pldd with PID of this child. On systems where /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope differs from zero, pldd will fail with /usr/bin/pldd: cannot attach to process 3: Operation not permitted This patch checks if ptrace_scope exists, is zero "classic ptrace permissions" or one "restricted ptrace". If ptrace_scope exists and has a higher restriction, then the test is marked as UNSUPPORTED. The case "restricted ptrace" is handled by rearranging the processes involved during the test. Now we have the following process tree: -parent: do_test (performs output checks) --subprocess 1: pldd_process (becomes pldd via execve) ---subprocess 2: target_process (ptraced via pldd) ChangeLog: * elf/tst-pldd.c (do_test): Add UNSUPPORTED check.

* nss_db: fix endent wrt NULL mappings [BZ #24695] [BZ #24696]DJ Delorie2019-07-101-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | nss_db allows for getpwent et al to be called without a set*ent, but it only works once. After the last get*ent a set*ent is required to restart, because the end*ent did not properly reset the module. Resetting it to NULL allows for a proper restart. If the database doesn't exist, however, end*ent erroniously called munmap which set errno. The test case runs "makedb" inside the testroot, so needs selinux DSOs installed.

* Fix alignment of TLS variables for tls variant TLS_TCB_AT_TP [BZ #23403]Stefan Liebler2019-02-061-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The alignment of TLS variables is wrong if accessed from within a thread for architectures with tls variant TLS_TCB_AT_TP. For the main thread the static tls data is properly aligned. For other threads the alignment depends on the alignment of the thread pointer as the static tls data is located relative to this pointer. This patch adds this alignment for TLS_TCB_AT_TP variants in the same way as it is already done for TLS_DTV_AT_TP. The thread pointer is also already properly aligned if the user provides its own stack for the new thread. This patch extends the testcase nptl/tst-tls1.c in order to check the alignment of the tls variables and it adds a pthread_create invocation with a user provided stack. The test itself is migrated from test-skeleton.c to test-driver.c and the missing support functions xpthread_attr_setstack and xposix_memalign are added.

* nptl: Fix pthread_rwlock_try*lock stalls (Bug 23844)Carlos O'Donell2019-01-311-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For a full analysis of both the pthread_rwlock_tryrdlock() stall and the pthread_rwlock_trywrlock() stall see: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23844#c14 In the pthread_rwlock_trydlock() function we fail to inspect for PTHREAD_RWLOCK_FUTEX_USED in __wrphase_futex and wake the waiting readers. In the pthread_rwlock_trywrlock() function we write 1 to __wrphase_futex and loose the setting of the PTHREAD_RWLOCK_FUTEX_USED bit, again failing to wake waiting readers during unlock. The fix in the case of pthread_rwlock_trydlock() is to check for PTHREAD_RWLOCK_FUTEX_USED and wake the readers. The fix in the case of pthread_rwlock_trywrlock() is to only write 1 to __wrphase_futex if we installed the write phase, since all other readers would be spinning waiting for this step. We add two new tests, one exercises the stall for pthread_rwlock_trywrlock() which is easy to exercise, and one exercises the stall for pthread_rwlock_trydlock() which is harder to exercise. The pthread_rwlock_trywrlock() test fails consistently without the fix, and passes after. The pthread_rwlock_tryrdlock() test fails roughly 5-10% of the time without the fix, and passes all the time after.

* Tests for minimal signal handler functionality in MINSIGSTKSZ space.Zack Weinberg2019-01-161-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is general agreement that the very short list of things that ISO C says you can do in an async signal handler should all work when the handler is running on an alternate signal stack with only MINSIGSTKSZ space. This patch adds tests to make sure those things do work.

* Adjust name of ld.so in test-container.c.Stefan Liebler2018-10-041-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The test-container.c file assumes that ld.so is always named something like /elf/ld-linux-*. But e.g. on s390x it is named ld64.so.1 or ld.so.1 on s390. There are other architectures like power or mips with similar names. This patch introduces the new global variable support_objdir_elf_ldso which contains the absolute path to the runtime linker used by the testsuite, e.g. OBJDIR_PATH/elf/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2. The check in test-container.c is now comparing against this path. Without this patch, test-container.c is searching invalid files / directories and fails to find glibc/nss/tst-nss-test3.root/tst-nss-test3.script. Then the test tst-nss-test3 fails!

* [BZ 1190] Make EOF sticky in stdio.Zack Weinberg2018-03-131-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | C99 specifies that the EOF condition on a file is "sticky": once EOF has been encountered, all subsequent reads should continue to return EOF until the file is closed or something clears the "end-of-file indicator" (e.g. fseek, clearerr). This is arguably a change from C89, where the wording was ambiguous; the BSDs always had sticky EOF, but the System V lineage would attempt to read from the underlying fd again. GNU libc has followed System V for as long as we've been using libio, but nowadays C99 conformance and BSD compatibility are more important than System V compatibility. You might wonder if changing the _underflow impls is sufficient to apply the C99 semantics to all of the many stdio functions that perform input. It should be enough to cover all paths to _IO_SYSREAD, and the only other functions that call _IO_SYSREAD are the _seekoff impls, which is OK because seeking clears EOF, and the _xsgetn impls, which, as far as I can tell, are unused within glibc. The test programs in this patch use a pseudoterminal to set up the necessary conditions. To facilitate this I added a new test-support function that sets up a pair of pty file descriptors for you; it's almost the same as BSD openpty, the only differences are that it allocates the optionally-returned tty pathname with malloc, and that it crashes if anything goes wrong.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

Although it works as expected, it pessimizes the allocation because it requires the kernel to actually increase commit charge (it counts against the available physical/swap memory available for the system). The only issue is to actually check this change since side-effects are really Linux specific and to actually account them it would require a kernel specific tests to parse the system wide information. On the kernel I checked /proc/self/statm does not show any meaningful difference for vmm and/or rss before and after thread creation. I could only see really meaningful information checking on system wide /proc/meminfo between thread creation: MemFree, MemAvailable, and Committed_AS shows large difference without the patch. I think trying to use these kind of information on a testcase is fragile. The BZ#18988 reports shows that the commit pages are easily seen with mlockall (MCL_FUTURE) (with lock all pages that become mapped in the process) however a more straighfoward testcase shows that pthread_create could be faster using this patch: -- static const int inner_count = 256; static const int outer_count = 128; static void *thread1(void *arg) { return NULL; } static void *sleeper(void *arg) { pthread_t ts[inner_count]; for (int i = 0; i < inner_count; i++) pthread_create (&ts[i], &a, thread1, NULL); for (int i = 0; i < inner_count; i++) pthread_join (ts[i], NULL); return NULL; } int main(void) { pthread_attr_init(&a); pthread_attr_setguardsize(&a, 1<<20); pthread_attr_setstacksize(&a, 1134592); pthread_t ts[outer_count]; for (int i = 0; i < outer_count; i++) pthread_create(&ts[i], &a, sleeper, NULL); for (int i = 0; i < outer_count; i++) pthread_join(ts[i], NULL); assert(r == 0); } return 0; } -- On x86_64 (4.4.0-45-generic, gcc 5.4.0) running the small benchtests I see: $ time ./test real 0m3.647s user 0m0.080s sys 0m11.836s While with the patch I see: $ time ./test real 0m0.696s user 0m0.040s sys 0m1.152s So I added a pthread_create benchtest (thread_create) which check the thread creation latency. As for the simple benchtests, I saw improvements in thread creation on all architectures I tested the change. Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, aarch64-linux-gnu, arm-linux-gnueabihf, powerpc64le-linux-gnu, sparc64-linux-gnu, and sparcv9-linux-gnu. [BZ #18988] * benchtests/thread_create-inputs: New file. * benchtests/thread_create-source.c: Likewise. * support/xpthread_attr_setguardsize.c: Likewise. * support/Makefile (libsupport-routines): Add xpthread_attr_setguardsize object. * support/xthread.h: Add xpthread_attr_setguardsize prototype. * benchtests/Makefile (bench-pthread): Add thread_create. * nptl/allocatestack.c (allocate_stack): Call mmap with PROT_NONE and then mprotect the required area.
* resolv: Tests for various versions of res_initFlorian Weimer2017-06-021-0/+9

* Add internal facility for dynamic array handlingFlorian Weimer2017-06-021-0/+4
| | | | | | This is intended as a type-safe alternative to obstacks and hand-written realloc constructs. The implementation avoids writing function pointers to the heap.
* Assume that accept4 is always available and worksFlorian Weimer2017-04-191-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Simplify the Linux accept4 implementation based on the assumption that it is available in some way. __ASSUME_ACCEPT4_SOCKETCALL was previously unused, so remove it. For ia64, the accept4 system call (and socket call) were backported in kernel version 3.2.18. Reflect this in the installation instructions.
* support: Add error checking to close system calls [BZ #21244]Florian Weimer2017-03-151-0/+1
