* i386 TLS_INIT_TP might produce bogus asm changing stack pointer [BZ #17319]Mark Wielaard2014-08-281-29/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TLS_INIT_TP in sysdeps/i386/nptl/tls.h uses some hand written asm to generate a set_thread_area that might result in exchanging ebx and esp around the syscall causing introspection tools like valgrind to loose track of the user stack. Just use INTERNAL_SYSCALL which makes sure esp isn't changed arbitrarily. Before the patch the code would generate: mov $0xf3,%eax movl $0xfffff,0x8(%esp) movl $0x51,0xc(%esp) xchg %esp,%ebx int $0x80 xchg %esp,%ebx Using INTERNAL_SYSCALL instead will generate: movl $0xfffff,0x8(%esp) movl $0x51,0xc(%esp) xchg %ecx,%ebx mov $0xf3,%eax int $0x80 xchg %ecx,%ebx Thanks to Florian Weimer for analysing why the original code generated the bogus esp usage: _segdescr.desc happens to be at the top of the stack, so its address is in %esp. The asm statement says that %3 is an input, so its value will not change, and GCC can use %esp as the input register for the expression &_segdescr.desc. But the constraints do not fully describe the asm statement because the %3 register is actually modified, albeit only temporarily. [BZ #17319] * sysdeps/i386/nptl/tls.h (TLS_INIT_TP): Use INTERNAL_SYSCALL to call set_thread_area instead of hand written asm. (__NR_set_thread_area): Removed define. (TLS_FLAG_WRITABLE): Likewise. (__ASSUME_SET_THREAD_AREA): Remove check. (TLS_EBX_ARG): Remove define. (TLS_LOAD_EBX): Likewise.

* Include <kernel-features.h> explicitly where required.Joseph Myers2014-06-201-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes files using __ASSUME_* macros include <kernel-features.h> explicitly, rather than relying on some other header (such as tls.h, lowlevellock.h or pthreadP.h) to include it implicitly. (I omitted cases where I've already posted or am testing the patch that stops the file from needing __ASSUME_* at all.) This accords with the general principle of making source files include the headers for anything they use, and also helps make it safe to remove <kernel-features.h> includes from any file that doesn't use __ASSUME_* (some of those may be stray includes left behind after increasing the minimum kernel version, others may never have been needed or may have become obsolete after some other change). Tested x86_64 that the disassembly of installed shared libraries is unchanged by this patch. * nptl/pthread_cond_wait.c: Include <kernel-features.h>. * nptl/pthread_rwlock_timedrdlock.c: Likewise. * nptl/pthread_rwlock_timedwrlock.c: Likewise. * nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/lowlevelrobustlock.c: Likewise. * nscd/nscd.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/i386/nptl/tcb-offsets.sym: Likewise. * sysdeps/powerpc/nptl/tcb-offsets.sym: Likewise. * sysdeps/sh/nptl/tcb-offsets.sym: Likewise. * sysdeps/x86_64/nptl/tcb-offsets.sym: Likewise.
