* y2038: linux: Provide __clock_adjtime64 implementationLukasz Majewski2020-05-201-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch replaces auto generated wrapper (as described in sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list) for clock_adjtime with one which adds extra support for reading 64 bit time values on machines with __TIMESIZE != 64. To achieve this goal new __clock_adjtime64 explicit 64 bit function for adjusting Linux clock has been added. Moreover, a 32 bit version - __clock_adjtime has been refactored to internally use __clock_adjtime64. The __clock_adjtime is now supposed to be used on systems still supporting 32 bit time (__TIMESIZE != 64) - hence the necessary conversions between 64 bit struct __timespec64 and struct timespec. The new __clock_adjtime64 syscall available from Linux 5.1+ has been used, when applicable. Up till v5.4 in the Linux kernel there was a bug preventing this call from obtaining correct struct's timex time.tv_sec time after time_t overflow (i.e. not being Y2038 safe). Build tests: - ./src/scripts/build-many-glibcs.py glibcs Run-time tests: - Run specific tests on ARM/x86 32bit systems (qemu): https://github.com/lmajewski/meta-y2038 and run tests: https://github.com/lmajewski/y2038-tests/commits/master Linux kernel, headers and minimal kernel version for glibc build test matrix: - Linux v5.1 (with clock_adjtime64) and glibc build with v5.1 as minimal kernel version (--enable-kernel="5.1.0") The __ASSUME_TIME64_SYSCALLS flag defined. - Linux v5.1 and default minimal kernel version The __ASSUME_TIME64_SYSCALLS not defined, but kernel supports clock_adjtime64 syscall. - Linux v4.19 (no clock_adjtime64 support) with default minimal kernel version for contemporary glibc (3.2.0) This kernel doesn't support clock_adjtime64 syscall, so the fallback to clock_adjtime is tested. Above tests were performed with Y2038 redirection applied as well as without (so the __TIMESIZE != 64 execution path is checked as well). No regressions were observed.

* Add SYSCALL_ULONG_ARG_[12] to pass long to syscall [BZ #25810]H.J. Lu2020-04-291-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | X32 has 32-bit long and pointer with 64-bit off_t. Since x32 psABI requires that pointers passed in registers must be zero-extended to 64bit, x32 can share many syscall interfaces with LP64. When a LP64 syscall with long and unsigned long int arguments is used for x32, these arguments must be properly extended to 64-bit. Otherwise if the upper 32 bits of the register have undefined value, such a syscall will be rejected by kernel. For syscalls implemented in assembly codes, 'U' is added to syscall signature key letters for unsigned long, which is zero-extended to 64-bit types. SYSCALL_ULONG_ARG_1 and SYSCALL_ULONG_ARG_2 are passed to syscall-template.S for the first and the second unsigned long int arguments if PSEUDOS_HAVE_ULONG_INDICES is defined. They are used by x32 to zero-extend 32-bit arguments to 64 bits. Tested on i386, x86-64 and x32 as well as with build-many-glibcs.py.

* linux: Use waitid on wait4 if __NR_wait4 is not definedAdhemerval Zanella2019-12-191-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the wait4 syscall is not available (such as y2038 safe 32-bit systems) waitid should be used instead. However prior Linux 5.4 waitid is not a full superset of other wait syscalls, since it does not include support for waiting for the current process group. It is possible to emulate wait4 by issuing an extra syscall to get the current process group, but it is inherent racy: after the current process group is received and before it is passed to waitid a signal could arrive causing the current process group to change. So waitid is used if wait4 is not defined iff the build is enabled with a minimum kernel if 5.4+. The new assume __ASSUME_WAITID_PID0_P_PGID is added and an error is issued if waitid can not be implemented by either __NR_wait4 or __NR_waitid && __ASSUME_WAITID_PID0_P_PGID.

* Linux/Alpha: don't use timeval32 system calls.Zack Weinberg2019-10-301-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Linux/Alpha has two versions of several system call wrappers that take or return data of type "struct timeval" (possibly nested inside a larger structure). The GLIBC_2.0 version is a compat symbol that calls __NR_osf_foo or __NR_old_foo and uses a struct timeval with a 32-bit tv_sec field. The GLIBC_2.1 version is used for current code, calls __NR_foo, and uses a struct timeval with a 64-bit tv_sec field. This patch changes all of the compat symbols of this type to be wrappers around their GLIBC_2.1 counterparts; the compatibility system calls will no longer be used. It serves as a proposal for part of how we do the transition to 64-bit time_t on systems that currently use 32-bit time_t: * The patched glibc will NOT use system calls that involve 32-bit time_t to implement its compatibility symbols. This will make both our lives and the kernel maintainers' lives easier. The primary argument I've seen against it is that the kernel could warn about uses of the old system calls, helping people find old binaries that need to be recompiled. I think there are several other ways we could accomplish this, e.g. scripts to scan the filesystem for binaries with references to the old symbol versions, or issuing diagnostics ourselves. * The compat symbols do NOT report failure after the Y2038 deadline. An earlier revision of this patch had them return -1 and set errno to EOVERFLOW, but Adhemerval pointed out that many of them have already performed side effects at the point where we discover the overflow, so that would break more than it fixes. Also, we don't want people to be _checking_ for EOVERFLOW from these functions; we want them to recompile with 64-bit time_t. So it's not actually useful for them to report failure to the calling code. * What they do do, when they encounter overflow, is saturate the overflowed "struct timeval"(s): tv_sec is set to INT32_MAX and tv_nsec is set to 999999. That means time stops advancing for programs with 32-bit time_t when they reach the deadline. That's obviously going to break stuff, but I think wrapping around is probably going to break _more_ stuff. I'd be interested to hear arguments against, if anyone has one. The new header file tv32-compat.h is currently Alpha-specific but I mean for it to be reused to aid in writing wrappers for all affected architectures. I only put it in sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha for now because I haven't checked whether the various "foo32" structures it defines agree with the ABI for ports other than Linux/Alpha.

* Remove obsolete, never-implemented XSI STREAMS declarationsFlorian Weimer2019-03-141-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The stub implementations are turned into compat symbols. Linux actually has two reserved system call numbers (for getpmsg and putpmsg), but these system calls have never been implemented, and there are no plans to implement them, so this patch replaces the wrappers with the generic stubs. According to <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=436349>, the presence of the XSI STREAMS declarations is a minor portability hazard because they are not actually implemented. This commit does not change the TIRPC support code in sunrpc/rpc_svcout.c. It uses additional XTI functionality and therefore never worked with glibc. Reviewed-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Linux nfsservctl syscall was removed in Linux 3.1. Since the minimum kernel version for use with glibc is 3.2, the glibc wrapper for this syscall can no longer usefully be called. This patch makes it into a compat symbol, not provided at all for static linking or new ports. (It was already the case that there was no header declaration of this function.) Tested for x86_64. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list (nfsservctl): Make into a compat symbol, disabled for minimum symbol version GLIBC_2.28 and later.
* Linux: Implement interfaces for memory protection keysFlorian Weimer2017-12-051-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Linux: Add memfd_create system call wrapperFlorian Weimer2017-11-231-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The system call is somewhat obscure because it is closely related to file descriptor sealing. However, it is also the recommended way to create alias mappings, which is why it has more general use. No emulation is provided. Except for the name of the /proc/self/fd links, it would be possible to implement an approximation using O_TMPFILE and tmpfs, but this does not appear to be worth the added complexity.

* Remove cached PID/TID in cloneAdhemerval Zanella2016-11-241-0/+1

Current usage is mainly used a performance optimization to avoid the syscall, however it adds some issues: - The exposed clone syscall will try to set pid/tid to make the new thread somewhat compatible with current GLIBC assumptions. This cause a set of issue with new workloads and usecases (such as BZ#17214 and [1]) as well for new internal usage of clone to optimize other algorithms (such as clone plus CLONE_VM for posix_spawn, BZ#19957). - The caching complexity also added some bugs in the past [2] [3] and requires more effort of each port to handle such requirements (for both clone and vfork implementation). - Caching performance gain in mainly on getpid and some specific code paths. The getpid performance leverage is questionable [4], either by the idea of getpid being a hotspot as for the getpid implementation itself (if it is indeed a justifiable hotspot a vDSO symbol could let to a much more simpler solution). Other usage is mainly for non usual code paths, such as pthread cancellation signal and handling. For thread creation (on stack allocation) the code simplification in fact adds some performance gain due the no need of transverse the stack cache and invalidate each element pid. Other thread usages will require a direct getpid syscall, such as cancellation/setxid signal, thread cancellation, thread fail path (at create_thread), and thread signal (pthread_kill and pthread_sigqueue). However these are hardly usual hotspots and I think adding a syscall is justifiable. It also simplifies both the clone and vfork arch-specific implementation. And by review each fork implementation there are some discrepancies that this patch also solves: - microblaze clone/vfork does not set/reset the pid/tid field - hppa uses the default vfork implementation that fallback to fork. Since vfork is deprecated I do not think we should bother with it. The patch also removes the TID caching in clone. My understanding for such semantic is try provide some pthread usage after a user program issue clone directly (as done by thread creation with CLONE_PARENT_SETTID and pthread tid member). However, as stated before in multiple discussions threads, GLIBC provides clone syscalls without further supporting all this semantics. I ran a full make check on x86_64, x32, i686, armhf, aarch64, and powerpc64le. For sparc32, sparc64, and mips I ran the basic fork and vfork tests from posix/ folder (on a qemu system). So it would require further testing on alpha, hppa, ia64, m68k, nios2, s390, sh, and tile (I excluded microblaze because it is already implementing the patch semantic regarding clone/vfork).

* Consolidate Linux setrlimit and getrlimit implementationAdhemerval Zanella2016-11-171-1/+0

It contains two exceptions: 1. mips32 and mips64n32 which requires a versioned symbol for GLIBC 2.19 and higher due a broken RLIM64_INFINITY constant. 2. sparc32 does not define a compat symbol for getrlimit64 for old 2GB limit. I am not sure if it is required, but a RLIM_INFINITY fix [1] change its definition without adding a compat symbol. This patch does not aim to address this possible issue, it follow current symbol export. The default implementation uses prlimit64 for 64 bit rlim_t ({set,get}rlimit64) and if it fails with ENOSYS it fall back to {get,set}rlimit syscall. This code path is only used on kernel older than 2.6.36 (basically now only x86) and I avoid to user __ASSUME_PRLIMTI64 to simplify the implementation. Once x86 moves to be on par with other architectures regarding minimum kernel supported we can get rid of using old syscalls and default path. A new type size define is added, __RLIM_T_MATCHES_RLIM64_T, where is set as default for 64 bits ports. This allows the default implementation to avoid {get,set}rlimit building and alias {get,set}rlimit64 to {get,set}rlimit. Checked on x86_64, i386, armhf, aarch64, and powerpc64le. I also did a sanity build plus check-abi on all other supported architectures.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The personality system call, starting with linux kernel commit v2.6.29-6609-g11d06b2a1e5658f448a308aa3beb97bacd64a940, always successfully changes the personality if requested. The syscall wrapper, however, still can return an error in the following cases: - the value returned by the system call looks like an error due to architecture limitations of 32-bit kernels; - a personality greater than 0xffffffff is passed to the system call, and the 64-bit kernel does not have commit v2.6.35-rc1-372-g485d527686850d68a0e9006dd9904f19f122485e that would truncate this value to unsigned int; - on sparc64, the value returned by the system call looks like an error due to sparc64 kernel sign extension bug. The solution is three-fold: - move generic syscalls.list personality entry to generic 64-bit syscalls.list file; - for each 32-bit architecture that use negated errno semantics, add a NOERRNO personality entry to their syscalls.list file; - for sparc64 and 32-bit architectures that use dedicated registers to flag syscall errors, add a wrapper around personality syscall; if the system call return value is flagged as an error, this wrapper returns the negated "would be errno" value, otherwise it returns the system call return value; on sparc64, it also truncates the personality argument to unsigned int before passing it to the kernel.

* Make obsolete syscall wrappers into compat symbols (bug 18472).Joseph Myers2015-12-141-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Various Linux kernel syscalls have become obsolete over time. Specifically, the following are obsolete in all kernel versions supported by glibc, are not present for architectures more recently added to the kernel, and as such, the wrapper functions for them should be compat symbols, not in static libc and not available for new links with shared libc. * bdflush: in Linux 2.6, does nothing if present. * create_module get_kernel_syms query_module: Linux 2.4 module interface, syscalls not present in Linux 2.6. * uselib: part of the mechanism for loading a.out shared libraries, irrelevant with ELF. This patch adds support for syscalls.list to list syscall aliases of the form NAME@VERSION:OBSOLETED, with SHLIB_COMPAT conditionals being generated for such aliases. Those five syscalls are then made into compat symbols (obsoleted in glibc 2.23, so future ports won't have these symbols at all), with the header <sys/kdaemon.h> declaring bdflush being removed. When we move to 3.2 as minimum kernel version, the same can be done for nfsservctl (removed in Linux 3.1) as well. Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, as well as checking that the symbols in question indeed become compat symbols, that they are indeed omitted from static libc, and that the generated SHLIB_COMPAT conditionals look right).

* linux/getsysstats.c: use sysinfo() instead of parsing /proc/meminfoRasmus Villemoes2015-09-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Profiling git's test suite, Linus noted [1] that a disproportionately large amount of time was spent reading /proc/meminfo. This is done by the glibc functions get_phys_pages and get_avphys_pages, but they only need the MemTotal and MemFree fields, respectively. That same information can be obtained with a single syscall, sysinfo, instead of six: open, fstat, mmap, read, close, munmap. While sysinfo also provides more than necessary, it does a lot less work than what the kernel needs to do to provide the entire /proc/meminfo. Both strace -T and in-app microbenchmarks shows that the sysinfo() approach is roughly an order of magnitude faster. sysinfo() is much older than what glibc currently requires, so I don't think there's any reason to keep the old parsing code. Moreover, this makes get_[av]phys_pages work even in the absence of /proc. Linus noted that something as simple as 'bash -c "echo"' would trigger the reading of /proc/meminfo, but gdb says that many more applications than just bash are affected: Starting program: /bin/bash "-c" "echo" Breakpoint 1, __get_phys_pages () at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/getsysstats.c:283 283 ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/getsysstats.c: No such file or directory.

* Create hidden aliases for non-libc syscalls automatically.Joseph Myers2015-06-171-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The syscall wrappers mechanism automatically creates hidden aliases for syscalls with libc_hidden_def / libc_hidden_weak. The use of libc_hidden_* has the side-effect that for syscall wrappers in non-libc libraries those aliases are not created. In turn, this means that three mq_* syscalls in sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list list the __GI_* names explicitly. The use of libc_hidden_* dates back to the original introduction of that support in 2002-08-03 Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> * sysdeps/unix/make-syscalls.sh: Generate libc_hidden_def or libc_hidden_weak for every system call symbol defined.

This patch changes the code to use hidden_def / hidden_weak (via a wrapper syscall_hidden_def in the case where the argument is itself a macro, so that the argument gets expanded before concatenation with __GI_), so avoiding the need to specify the hidden aliases explicitly in this case. Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that disassembly of installed stripped shared libraries is unchanged by the patch; the mq_* symbols change from weak to strong, which is of no significance and two of them will shortly change back to weak as part of a fix for bug 18545). * sysdeps/unix/make-syscalls.sh (emit_weak_aliases): Use hidden_def and hidden_weak instead of libc_hidden_def and libc_hidden_weak. (top level): Refer to hidden_def in comment. * sysdeps/unix/syscall-template.S (syscall_hidden_def): New macro. Use it instead of libc_hidden_def. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list (mq_timedsend): Do not specify __GI_* name explicitly. (mq_timedreceive): Likewise. (mq_setattr): Likewise.
* Remove __libc_nanosleep function name.Joseph Myers2014-11-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Continuing the removal of unused __libc_* function names, this patch removes the __libc_nanosleep name. Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that the disassembly of installed shared libraries is unchanged by the patch; __nanosleep changes from weak to strong, which is of no significance). * posix/nanosleep.c (__libc_nanosleep): Rename to __nanosleep. (__nanosleep): Do not define as alias. (nanosleep): Define as alias of __nanosleep. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list (nanosleep): Remove __libc_nanosleep name.
* Remove __libc_creat function name.Joseph Myers2014-10-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | glibc has lots of __libc_* function names that no longer serve any purpose (are not used for any calls or exported at a public symbol version). This patch removes __libc_creat. It has the effect of creat becoming a strong symbol instead of a weak symbol in various cases, but that's fine; in shared libraries it doesn't matter at all, while for static linking the only other symbol sometimes defined in the same object is creat64, and whenever creat64 is a reserved name so is creat. Other such cases of unnecessary __libc_* symbols are expected to be dealt with in separate patches over time. Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that the disassembly of installed shared libraries is unchanged by the patch). * include/fcntl.h (__libc_creat): Remove declaration. * io/creat.c (__libc_creat): Rename to creat. (creat): Do not define as alias. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/creat.c (creat64): Define as alias of creat instead of __libc_creat. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/generic/creat.c (__libc_creat): Rename to creat. (creat): Do not define as alias. [__WORDSIZE == 64] (creat64): Define as alias of creat instead of __libc_creat. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list (creat): Do not define __libc_creat name. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/wordsize-64/syscalls.list (creat): Likewise.
* Don't use INTUSE with __adjtimex (bug 14132).Joseph Myers2014-10-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug 14132 is removal of the old INTDEF/INTUSE system of *_internal aliases as obsoleted by the hidden_proto / hidden_def system. Various cases were cleaned up in 2012, but some remain. This patch removes the use of this mechanism for __adjtimex. Tested for x86_64 that stripped installed shared libraries are unchanged by the patch. [BZ #14132] * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/include/sys/timex.h: New file. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/adjtime.c [!ADJTIMEX] (ADJTIMEX): Do not use INTUSE. [!ADJTIMEX] (INTUSE(__adjtimex)): Remove declaration. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/adjtime.c (__adjtimex_internal): Remove alias. (__adjtimex): Define using libc_hidden_ver. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ntp_gettime.c (INTUSE(__adjtimex)): Remove declaration. (ntp_gettime): Call __adjtimex directly. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ntp_gettimex.c (INTUSE(__adjtimex)): Remove declaration. (ntp_gettimex): Call __adjtimex directly. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list (adjtimex): Remove __adjtimex_internal alias.
* Move execve to syscalls.list (bug 14138).Joseph Myers2014-10-011-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Continuing the move of syscall definitions to syscalls.list, where previous cleanups have made this possible, this patch moves the definition of execve. (In this case, it was the removal of bounded pointers support, rather than old kernel support, which made the move possible.) Tested for x86_64. [BZ #14138] * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/execve.c: Remove file. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list (execve): Add syscall.
* Move some *at definitions to syscalls.list (bug 14138).Joseph Myers2014-09-301-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Continuing the move of syscall definitions to syscalls.list, where the removal of support for old kernel versions has made this possible, this patch moves definitions of various *at functions in sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/. These particular moves are straightforward: there are no #includes of these source files, no special architecture-specific versions, no special symbol version handling and no aliases. Each source file can be replaced by a single line in sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list. Tested for x86_64. [BZ #14138] * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list (fchownat): New syscall. (linkat): Likewise. (mkdirat): Likewise. (readlinkat): Likewise. (renameat): Likewise. (symlinkat): Likewise. (unlinkat): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/fchownat.c: Remove file. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/linkat.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mkdirat.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/readlinkat.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/renameat.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/symlinkat.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/unlinkat.c: Likewise.
