* refactor to remove arch-specific relocation code from dynamic linkerRich Felker2014-06-181-24/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | this was one of the main instances of ugly code duplication: all archs use basically the same types of relocations, but roughly equivalent logic was duplicated for each arch to account for the different naming and numbering of relocation types and variation in whether REL or RELA records are used. as an added bonus, both REL and RELA are now supported on all archs, regardless of which is used by the standard toolchain.
* fix powerpc dynamic linker thread-pointer-relative relocationsRich Felker2014-06-171-3/+3
| | | | | | | processing of R_PPC_TPREL32 was ignoring the addend provided by the RELA-style relocation and instead using the inline value as the addend. this presumably broke dynamic-linked access to initial TLS in cases where the addend was nonzero.
* dynamic linker: permit error returns from arch-specific reloc functionRich Felker2014-06-161-1/+2
| | | | | | | | the immediate motivation is supporting TLSDESC relocations which require allocation and thus may fail (unless we pre-allocate), but this mechanism should also be used for throwing an error on unsupported or invalid relocation types, and perhaps in certain cases, for reporting when a relocation is not satisfiable.
* support configurable page size on mips, powerpc and microblazeSzabolcs Nagy2013-09-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | PAGE_SIZE was hardcoded to 4096, which is historically what most systems use, but on several archs it is a kernel config parameter, user space can only know it at execution time from the aux vector. PAGE_SIZE and PAGESIZE are not defined on archs where page size is a runtime parameter, applications should use sysconf(_SC_PAGE_SIZE) to query it. Internally libc code defines PAGE_SIZE to libc.page_size, which is set to aux[AT_PAGESZ] in __init_libc and early in __dynlink as well. (Note that libc.page_size can be accessed without GOT, ie. before relocations are done) Some fpathconf settings are hardcoded to 4096, these should be actually queried from the filesystem using statfs.
* fix powerpc build breakage from dynamic linker path search changesRich Felker2013-07-261-1/+1

* make the dynamic linker find its path file relative to its own locationRich Felker2013-07-181-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | prior to this change, using a non-default syslibdir was impractical on systems where the ordinary library paths contain musl-incompatible library files. the file containing search paths was always taken from /etc, which would either correspond to a system-wide musl installation, or fail to exist at all, resulting in searching of the default library path. the new search strategy is safe even for suid programs because the pathname used comes from the PT_INTERP header of the program being run, rather than any external input. as part of this change, I have also begun differentiating the names of arch variants that differ by endianness or floating point calling convention. the corresponding changes in the build system and and gcc wrapper script (to use an alternate dynamic linker name) for these configurations have not yet been made.
* dynamic linking support for powerpcRich Felker2012-11-161-8/+27
| | | | | | | | incomplete but at least partly working. requires all files to be compiled in the new "secure" plt model, not the old one that put plt code in the data segment. TLS is untested but may work. invoking the dynamic linker explicitly to load a program does not yet handle argv correctly.
* PPC port cleaned up, static linking works well now.rofl0r2012-11-131-0/+36
