5 years ago, commit 8f1b841e452dbb083112fd036033b7f4af506ba0
unintentionally added an ifunc to the loader.
That modification has not caused any harm so far, but it doesn't add any

libc initialization.

This patch modifies the current POWER9 implementation of strcpy and
stpcpy to optimize it for POWER9/10.
Since no new POWER10 instructions are used, the original POWER9 strcpy is
modified instead of creating a new implementation for POWER10. This
implementation is based on both the original POWER9 implementation of
strcpy and the preamble of the new POWER10 implementation of strlen.
The changes also affect stpcpy, which uses the same implementation with
some additional code before returning.
On POWER9, averaging improvements across the benchmark
inputs (length/source alignment/destination alignment), for an
experiment that ran the benchmark five times, bench-strcpy showed an
improvement of 5.23%, and bench-stpcpy showed an improvement of 6.59%.
On POWER10, bench-strcpy showed 13.16%, and bench-stpcpy showed 13.59%.
The changes are:
1. Removed the null string optimization.
Although this results in a few extra cycles for the null string, in
combination with the second change, this resulted in improvements for
for other cases.
2. Adapted the preamble from strlen for POWER10.
This is the part of the function that handles up to the first 16 bytes
of the string.
3. Increased number of unrolled iterations in the main loop to 6.

Commit 68ab82f56690ada86ac1e0c46bad06ba189a10ef added support for the scv
syscall ABI on powerpc. Since then systems that have kernel and processor
support started using scv. However adding the proper support for a new syscall
ABI requires changes to several other projects (e.g. qemu, valgrind, strace,
kernel), which are gradually receiving support.
Meanwhile, having a way to disable scv on glibc at build time can be useful for
distros that may encounter conflicts with projects that still do not support the
scv ABI, buying time until proper support is added.
This commit adds a --disable-scv option that disables scv support and uses sc
for all syscalls, like before commit 68ab82f56690ada86ac1e0c46bad06ba189a10ef.

This patch was based on the __memcmp_power8 and the recent
__strlen_power10.
Improvements from __memcmp_power8:
1. Don't need alignment code.
On POWER10 lxvp and lxvl do not generate alignment interrupts, so
they are safe for use on caching-inhibited memory. Notice that the
comparison on the main loop will wait for both VSR to be ready.
Therefore aligning one of the input address does not improve
performance. In order to align both registers a vperm is necessary
which add too much overhead.
2. Uses new POWER10 instructions
This code uses lxvp to decrease contention on load by loading 32 bytes
per instruction.
The vextractbm is used to have a smaller tail code for calculating the
return value.
3. Performance improvement
This version has around 35% better performance on average. I saw no
performance regressions for any length or alignment.
Thanks Matheus for helping me out with some details.

Reuse code for optimized strlen to implement a faster version of rawmemchr.
This takes advantage of the same benefits provided by the strlen implementation,
but needs some extra steps. __strlen_power10 code should be unchanged after this
change.
rawmemchr returns a pointer to the char found, while strlen returns only the
length, so we have to take that into account when preparing the return value.
To quickly check 64B, the loop on __strlen_power10 merges the whole block into
16B by using unsigned minimum vector operations (vminub) and checks if there are
any \0 on the resulting vector. The same code is used by rawmemchr if the char c
is 0. However, this approach does not work when c != 0. We first need to
subtract each byte by c, so that the value we are looking for is converted to a
0, then taking the minimum and checking for nulls works again.
The new code branches after it has compared ~256 bytes and chooses which of the
two strategies above will be used in the main loop, based on the char c. This
extra branch adds some overhead (~5%) for length ~256, but is quickly amortized
by the faster loop for larger sizes.
Compared to __rawmemchr_power9, this version is ~20% faster for length < 256.
Because of the optimized main loop, the improvement becomes ~35% for c != 0
and ~50% for c = 0 for strings longer than 256.

And replace the generic algorithm with the Brian Kernighan's one.
GCC optimize it with popcnt if the architecture supports, so there
is no need to add the extra POPCNT define to enable it.
This is really a micro-optimization that only adds complexity:
recent ABIs already support it (x86-64-v2 or power64le) and it
simplifies the code for internal usage, since i686 does not allow an
internal iFUNC call.

This implementation is based on __memset_power8 and integrates a lot
of suggestions from Anton Blanchard.
The biggest difference is that it makes extensive use of stxvl to
alignment and tail code to avoid branches and small stores. It has
three main execution paths:
a) "Short lengths" for lengths up to 64 bytes, avoiding as many
branches as possible.
b) "General case" for larger lengths, it has an alignment section
using stxvl to avoid branches, a 128 bytes loop and then a tail
code, again using stxvl with few branches.
c) "Zeroing cache blocks" for lengths from 256 bytes upwards and set
value being zero. It is mostly the __memset_power8 code but the
alignment phase was simplified because, at this point, address is
already 16-bytes aligned and also changed to use vector stores.
The tail code was also simplified to reuse the general case tail.
All unaligned stores use stxvl instructions that do not generate
alignment interrupts on POWER10, making it safe to use on
caching-inhibited memory.
On average, this implementation provides something around 30%
improvement when compared to __memset_power8.

It benefits from loads and stores with length for short lengths and for
tail code, simplifying the code.
All unaligned memory accesses use instructions that do not generate

The main loop has also been modified in order to increase instruction
throughput by reducing the dependency on updates from previous iterations.
On average, this implementation provides around 30% improvement when

This patch was initially based on the __memmove_power7 with some ideas
from strncpy implementation for Power 9.
Improvements from __memmove_power7:
1. Use lxvl/stxvl for alignment code.
The code for Power 7 uses branches when the input is not naturally
aligned to the width of a vector. The new implementation uses
lxvl/stxvl instead which reduces pressure on GPRs. It also allows
the removal of branch instructions, implicitly removing branch stalls
and mispredictions.
2. Use of lxv/stxv and lxvl/stxvl pair is safe to use on Cache Inhibited
memory.
On Power 10 vector load and stores are safe to use on CI memory for
addresses unaligned to 16B. This code takes advantage of this to
do unaligned loads.
The unaligned loads don't have a significant performance impact by
themselves. However doing so decreases register pressure on GPRs
and interdependence stalls on load/store pairs. This also improved
readability as there are now less code paths for different alignments.
Finally this reduces the overall code size.
3. Improved performance.
This version runs on average about 30% better than memmove_power7
for lengths larger than 8KB. For input lengths shorter than 8KB
the improvement is smaller, it has on average about 17% better
performance.
This version has a degradation of about 50% for input lengths
in the 0 to 31 bytes range when dest is unaligned.

Improvements compared to POWER9 version:
1. Take into account first 16B comparison for aligned strings
The previous version compares the first 16B and increments r4 by the number
of bytes until the address is 16B-aligned, then starts doing aligned loads at
that address. For aligned strings, this causes the first 16B to be compared
twice, because the increment is 0. Here we calculate the next 16B-aligned
address differently, which avoids that issue.
2. Use simple comparisons for the first ~192 bytes
The main loop is good for big strings, but comparing 16B each time is better
for smaller strings. So after aligning the address to 16 Bytes, we check
more 176B in 16B chunks. There may be some overlaps with the main loop for
unaligned strings, but we avoid using the more aggressive strategy too soon,
and also allow the loop to start at a 64B-aligned address. This greatly
benefits smaller strings and avoids overlapping checks if the string is
already aligned at a 64B boundary.
3. Reduce dependencies between load blocks caused by address calculation on loop
Doing a precise time tracing on the code showed many loads in the loop were
stalled waiting for updates to r4 from previous code blocks. This
implementation avoids that as much as possible by using 2 registers (r4 and
r5) to hold addresses to be used by different parts of the code.
Also, the previous code aligned the address to 16B, then to 64B by doing a
few 48B loops (if needed) until the address was aligned. The main loop could
not start until that 48B loop had finished and r4 was updated with the
current address. Here we calculate the address used by the loop very early,
so it can start sooner.
The main loop now uses 2 pointers 128B apart to make pointer updates less
frequent, and also unrolls 1 iteration to guarantee there is enough time
between iterations to update the pointers, reducing stalled cycles.
4. Use new P10 instructions
lxvp is used to load 32B with a single instruction, reducing contention in
the load queue.
vextractbm allows simplifying the tail code for the loop, replacing
vbpermq and avoiding having to generate a permute control vector.

The new code is enabled only when there is a cancellation at the very end of
the j0f/j1f/y0f/y1f computation, or for very large inputs, thus should not
give any visible slowdown on average. Two different algorithms are used:
* around the first 64 zeros of j0/j1/y0/y1, approximation polynomials of
degree 3 are used, computed using the Sollya tool (https://www.sollya.org/)
* for large inputs, an asymptotic formula from [1] is used

It turns out the startup code in csu/elf-init.c has a perfect pair of
ROP gadgets (see Marco-Gisbert and Ripoll-Ripoll, "return-to-csu: A
New Method to Bypass 64-bit Linux ASLR"). These functions are not
needed in dynamically-linked binaries because DT_INIT/DT_INIT_ARRAY
are already processed by the dynamic linker. However, the dynamic
linker skipped the main program for some reason. For maximum
backwards compatibility, this is not changed, and instead, the main
map is consulted from __libc_start_main if the init function argument
is a NULL pointer.
For statically linked binaries, the old approach based on linker
symbols is still used because there is nothing else available.
A new symbol version __libc_start_main@@GLIBC_2.34 is introduced because
new binaries running on an old libc would not run their ELF
constructors, leading to difficult-to-debug issues.

A not so recent kernel change[1] changed how the trampoline
`__kernel_sigtramp_rt64` is used to call signal handlers.
This was exposed on the test misc/tst-sigcontext-get_pc
Before kernel 5.9, the kernel set LR to the trampoline address and
jumped directly to the signal handler, and at the end the signal
handler, as any other function, would `blr` to the address set. In
other words, the trampoline was executed just at the end of the signal
handler and the only thing it did was call sigreturn. But since
kernel 5.9 the kernel set CTRL to the signal handler and calls to the
trampoline code, the trampoline then `bctrl` to the address in CTRL,
setting the LR to the next instruction in the middle of the
trampoline, when the signal handler returns, the rest of the
trampoline code executes the same code as before.
Here is the full trampoline code as of kernel 5.11.0-rc5 for
reference:
V_FUNCTION_BEGIN(__kernel_sigtramp_rt64)
.Lsigrt_start:
bctrl /* call the handler */
addi r1, r1, __SIGNAL_FRAMESIZE
li r0,__NR_rt_sigreturn
sc
.Lsigrt_end:
V_FUNCTION_END(__kernel_sigtramp_rt64)
This new behavior breaks how `backtrace()` uses to detect the
trampoline frame to correctly reconstruct the stack frame when it is
called from inside a signal handling.
This workaround rely on the fact that the trampoline code is at very
least two (maybe 3?) instructions in size (as it is in the 32 bits
version, only on `li` and `sc`), so it is safe to check the return
address be in the range __kernel_sigtramp_rt64 .. + 4.

Linux kernel v5.9 added support for system calls using the scv
instruction for POWER9 and later. The new codepath provides better
performance (see below) if compared to using sc. For the
foreseeable future, both sc and scv mechanisms will co-exist, so this
patch enables glibc to do a runtime check and use scv when it is
available.
Before issuing the system call to the kernel, we check hwcap2 in the TCB
for PPC_FEATURE2_SCV to see if scv is supported by the kernel. If not,
we fallback to sc and keep the old behavior.
The kernel implements a different error return convention for scv, so
when returning from a system call we need to handle the return value
differently depending on the instruction we used to enter the kernel.
For syscalls implemented in ASM, entry and exit are implemented by
different macros (PSEUDO and PSEUDO_RET, resp.), which may be used in
sequence (e.g. for templated syscalls) or with other instructions in
between (e.g. clone). To avoid accessing the TCB a second time on
PSEUDO_RET to check which instruction we used, the value read from
hwcap2 is cached on a non-volatile register.
This is not needed when using INTERNAL_SYSCALL macro, since entry and
exit are bundled into the same inline asm directive.
The dynamic loader may issue syscalls before the TCB has been setup
so it always uses sc with no extra checks. For the static case, there
is no compile-time way to determine if we are inside startup code,
so we also check the value of the thread pointer before effectively
accessing the TCB. For such situations in which the availability of
scv cannot be determined, sc is always used.
Support for scv in syscalls implemented in their own ASM file (clone and
vfork) will be added later. For now simply use sc as before.
Average performance over 1M calls for each syscall "type":
- stat: C wrapper calling INTERNAL_SYSCALL
- getpid: templated ASM syscall
- syscall: call to gettid using syscall function
Standard:
stat : 1.573445 us / ~3619 cycles
getpid : 0.164986 us / ~379 cycles
syscall : 0.162743 us / ~374 cycles
With scv:
stat : 1.537049 us / ~3535 cycles <~ -84 cycles / -2.32%
getpid : 0.109923 us / ~253 cycles <~ -126 cycles / -33.25%
syscall : 0.116410 us / ~268 cycles <~ -106 cycles / -28.34%
Tested on powerpc, powerpc64, powerpc64le (with and without scv)

Programatically generate simple wrappers for interesting libm *f128
objects. Selected functions are transcendental functions or
those with trivial compiler builtins. This can result in a 2-3x
speedup (e.g logf128 and expf128).
A second set of implementation files are generated which include
the first implementation encountered along the search path. This
usually works, except when a wrapper is overriden and makefile
search order slightly diverges from include order. Likewise,
wrapper object files are created for each generated file. These
hold the ifunc selection routines which export ABI.
Next, several shared headers are intercepted to control renaming of
asm function redirects are used first, and sometimes macro renames
if the former is impractical.
Notably, if the request machine supports hardware IEEE128 (i.e POWER9
and newer) this ifunc machinery is disabled. Likewise existing
ifunc support for float128 is consolidated into this (e.g sqrtf128
and fmaf128).

PT_THREAD_POINTER is currenty defined inside a #ifndef __ASSEMBLER__ block, but
its usage should not be limited to C code, as it can be useful when accessing

There are several compiler implementations that allow large stack
allocations to jump over the guard page at the end of the stack and
corrupt memory beyond that. See CVE-2017-1000364.
Compilers can emit code to probe the stack such that the guard page
cannot be skipped, but on aarch64 the probe interval is 64K by default
instead of the minimum supported page size (4K).
This patch enforces at least 64K guard on aarch64 unless the guard
is disabled by setting its size to 0. For backward compatibility
reasons the increased guard is not reported, so it is only observable
by exhausting the address space or parsing /proc/self/maps on linux.
On other targets the patch has no effect. If the stack probe interval
is larger than a page size on a target then ARCH_MIN_GUARD_SIZE can
be defined to get large enough stack guard on libc allocated stacks.
The patch does not affect threads with user allocated stacks.
Fixes bug 26691.
