* add io_pgetevents and rseq syscall numbers from linux v4.18Szabolcs Nagy2018-12-091-0/+2
| | | | | | | | io_pgetevents is new in linux commit 7a074e96dee62586c935c80cecd931431bfdd0be rseq is new in linux commit d7822b1e24f2df5df98c76f0e94a5416349ff759
* make thread-pointer-loading asm non-volatileRich Felker2018-10-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | this will allow the compiler to cache and reuse the result, meaning we no longer have to take care not to load it more than once for the sake of archs where the load may be expensive. depends on commit 1c84c99913bf1cd47b866ed31e665848a0da84a2 for correctness, since otherwise the compiler could hoist loads during stage 3 of dynamic linking before the initial thread-pointer setup.
* apply hidden visibility to sigreturn code fragmentsRich Felker2018-09-121-1/+3
| | | | | | | these were overlooked in the declarations overhaul work because they are not properly declared, and the current framework even allows their declared types to vary by arch. at some point this should be cleaned up, but I'm not sure what the right way would be.
* add support for arch-specific ptrace command macrosSzabolcs Nagy2018-07-171-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sys/ptrace.h is target specific, use bits/ptrace.h to add target specific macro definitions. these macros are kept in the generic sys/ptrace.h even though some targets don't support them: PTRACE_GETREGS PTRACE_SETREGS PTRACE_GETFPREGS PTRACE_SETFPREGS PTRACE_GETFPXREGS PTRACE_SETFPXREGS so no macro definition got removed in this patch on any target. only s390x has a numerically conflicting macro definition (PTRACE_SINGLEBLOCK). the PT_ aliases follow glibc headers, otherwise the definitions come from linux uapi headers except ones that are skipped in glibc and there is no real kernel support (s390x PTRACE_*_AREA) or need special type definitions (mips PTRACE_*_WATCH_*) or only relevant for linux 2.4 compatibility (PTRACE_OLDSETOPTIONS).
* use PAGESIZE rather than PAGE_SIZE in user.h bitsRich Felker2018-03-101-2/+2
| | | | align with commit c9c2cd3e6955cb1d57b8be01d4b072bf44058762.
* reverse definition dependency between PAGESIZE and PAGE_SIZERich Felker2018-03-101-1/+1
| | | | | | PAGESIZE is actually the version defined in POSIX base, with PAGE_SIZE being in the XSI option. use PAGESIZE as the underlying definition to facilitate making exposure of PAGE_SIZE conditional.
* add statx syscall numbers from linux v4.11Szabolcs Nagy2017-11-051-0/+1
| | | | | statx was added in linux commit a528d35e8bfcc521d7cb70aaf03e1bd296c8493f (there is no libc wrapper yet and microblaze and sh misses the number).
* add a_clz_64 helper functionSzabolcs Nagy2017-08-291-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | counts leading zero bits of a 64bit int, undefined on zero input. (has nothing to do with atomics, added to atomic.h so target specific helper functions are together.) there is a logarithmic generic implementation and another in terms of a 32bit a_clz_32 on targets where that's available.
* reduce impact of REG_* namespace pollution in x86[_64] signal.hRich Felker2017-01-041-23/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | when _GNU_SOURCE is defined, which is always the case when compiling c++ with gcc, these macros for the the indices in gregset_t are exposed and likely to clash with applications. by using enum constants rather than macros defined with integer literals, we can make the clash slightly less likely to break software. the macros are still defined in case anything checks for them with #ifdef, but they're defined to expand to themselves so that non-file-scope (e.g. namespaced) identifiers by the same names still work. for the sake of avoiding mistakes, the changes were generated with sed via the command: sed -i -e 's/#define *\(REG_[A-Z_0-9]\{1,\}\) *\([0-9]\{1,\}\)'\ '/enum { \1 = \2 };\n#define \1 \1/' \ arch/i386/bits/signal.h arch/x86_64/bits/signal.h arch/x32/bits/signal.h
* add pkey_{mprotect,alloc,free} syscalls from linux v4.9Szabolcs Nagy2016-12-291-0/+3

* work around gdb issues recognizing sigreturn trampoline on x86_64Rich Felker2016-11-121-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | gdb can only backtrace/unwind across signal handlers if it recognizes the sa_restorer trampoline. for x86_64, gdb first attempts to determine the symbol name for the function in which the program counter resides and match it against "__restore_rt". if no name can be found (e.g. in the case of a stripped binary), the exact instruction sequence is matched instead. when matching the function name, however, gdb's unwind code wrongly considers the interval [sym,sym+size] rather than [sym,sym+size). thus, if __restore_rt begins immediately after another function, gdb wrongly identifies pc as lying within the previous adjacent function. this patch adds a nop before __restore_rt to preclude that possibility. it also removes the symbol name __restore and replaces it with a macro since the stability of whether gdb identifies the function as __restore_rt or __restore is not clear. for the no-symbols case, the instruction sequence is changed to use %rax rather than %eax to match what gdb expects. based on patch by Szabolcs Nagy, with extended description and corresponding x32 changes added.
* make brace placement in public header typedef'd structs consistentRich Felker2016-07-031-2/+1
| | | | | | commit befa5866ee30d09c0c96e88af2eabff5911342ea performed this change for struct definitions that did not also involve typedef, but omitted the latter.
* make brace placement in public header struct definitions consistentRich Felker2016-07-035-14/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | placing the opening brace on the same line as the struct keyword/tag is the style I prefer and seems to be the prevailing practice in more recent additions. these changes were generated by the command: find include/ arch/*/bits -name '*.h' \ -exec sed -i '/^struct [^;{]*$/{N;s/\n/ /;}' {} + and subsequently checked by hand to ensure that the regex did not pick up any false positives.
* use the generic ioctl.h for x86_64, x32 and aarch64Szabolcs Nagy2016-07-031-197/+0
| | | | | they were slightly different in musl, but should be the same: the linux uapi and glibc headers are not different.
* add preadv2 and pwritev2 syscall numbers for linux v4.6Szabolcs Nagy2016-06-091-0/+2
| | | | | | | | the syscalls take an additional flag argument, they were added in commit f17d8b35452cab31a70d224964cd583fb2845449 and a RWF_HIPRI priority hint flag was added to linux/fs.h in 97be7ebe53915af504fb491fb99f064c7cf3cb09. the syscall is not allocated for microblaze and sh yet.

* fix regression disabling use of pause instruction for x86 a_spinRich Felker2016-03-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | commits e24984efd5c6ac5ea8e6cb6cd914fa8435d458bc and 16b55298dc4b6a54d287d7494e04542667ef8861 inadvertently disabled the a_spin implementations for i386, x86_64, and x32 by defining a macro named a_pause instead of a_spin. this should not have caused any functional regression, but it inhibited cpu relaxation while spinning for locks. bug reported by George Kulakowski.
* add copy_file_range syscall numbers from linux v4.5Szabolcs Nagy2016-03-191-0/+2
| | | | | | | it was introduced for offloading copying between regular files in linux commit 29732938a6289a15e907da234d6692a2ead71855 (microblaze and sh does not yet have the syscall number.)
* deduplicate bits/mman.hSzabolcs Nagy2016-03-181-59/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | currently five targets use the same mman.h constants and the rest share most constants too, so move them to sys/mman.h before the bits/mman.h include where the differences can be corrected by redefinition of the macros. this fixes two minor bugs: POSIX_MADV_DONTNEED was wrong on most targets (it should be the same as MADV_DONTNEED), and sh defined the x86-only MAP_32BIT mmap flag.
* add sched_getcpu vDSO supportNathan Zadoks2016-03-021-0/+2
| | | | | This brings the call to an actually usable speed. Quick unscientific benchmark: 14ns : 102ns :: vDSO : syscall
* deduplicate the bulk of the arch bits headersRich Felker2016-01-277-321/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | all bits headers that were identical for a number of 'clean' archs are moved to the new arch/generic tree. in addition, a few headers that differed only cosmetically from the new generic version are removed. additional deduplication may be possible in mman.h and in several headers (limits.h, posix.h, stdint.h) that mostly depend on whether the arch is 32- or 64-bit, but they are left alone for now because greater gains are likely possible with more invasive changes to header logic, which is beyond the scope of this commit.
* add MCL_ONFAULT and MLOCK_ONFAULT mlockall and mlock2 flagsSzabolcs Nagy2016-01-261-0/+1
| | | | | | | | they lock faulted pages into memory (useful when a small part of a large mapped file needs efficient access), new in linux v4.4, commit b0f205c2a3082dd9081f9a94e50658c5fa906ff1 MLOCK_* is not in the POSIX reserved namespace for sys/mman.h
* add mlock2 syscall number from linux v4.4Szabolcs Nagy2016-01-261-0/+2
| | | | | | | this is mlock with a flags argument, new in linux commit a8ca5d0ecbdde5cc3d7accacbd69968b0c98764e as usual microblaze and sh don't have allocated syscall number yet.
* add new membarrier, userfaultfd and switch_endian syscallsSzabolcs Nagy2016-01-261-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | new in linux v4.3 added for aarch64, arm, i386, mips, or1k, powerpc, x32 and x86_64. membarrier is a system wide memory barrier, moves most of the synchronization cost to one side, new in kernel commit 5b25b13ab08f616efd566347d809b4ece54570d1 userfaultfd is useful for qemu and is new in kernel commit 8d2afd96c20316d112e04d935d9e09150e988397 switch_endian is powerpc only for switching endianness, new in commit 529d235a0e190ded1d21ccc80a73e625ebcad09b
* clean up x86_64 (and x32) atomics for new atomics frameworkRich Felker2016-01-221-55/+64
| | | | | | | this commit mostly makes consistent things like spacing, function ordering in atomic_arch.h, argument names, use of volatile, etc. a_ctz_l was also removed from x86_64 since atomic.h provides it automatically using a_ctz_64.
* refactor internal atomic.hRich Felker2016-01-211-14/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | rather than having each arch provide its own atomic.h, there is a new shared atomic.h in src/internal which pulls arch-specific definitions from arc/$(ARCH)/atomic_arch.h. the latter can be extremely minimal, defining only a_cas or new ll/sc type primitives which the shared atomic.h will use to construct everything else. this commit avoids making heavy changes to the individual archs' atomic implementations. definitions which are identical or near-identical to what the new shared atomic.h would produce have been removed, but otherwise the changes made are just hooking up the arch-specific files to the new infrastructure. major changes to take advantage of the new system will come in subsequent commits.
* properly access mcontext_t program counter in cancellation handlerRich Felker2015-11-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | using the actual mcontext_t definition rather than an overlaid pointer array both improves correctness/readability and eliminates some ugly hacks for archs with 64-bit registers bit 32-bit program counter. also fix UB due to comparison of pointers not in a common array object.
* new dlstart stage-2 chaining for x86_64 and x32Rich Felker2015-09-171-0/+5

* mitigate performance regression in libc-internal locks on x86_64Rich Felker2015-08-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | commit 3c43c0761e1725fd5f89a9c028cbf43250abb913 fixed missing synchronization in the atomic store operation for i386 and x86_64, but opted to use mfence for the barrier on x86_64 where it's always available. however, in practice mfence is significantly slower than the barrier approach used on i386 (a nop-like lock orl operation). this commit changes x86_64 (and x32) to use the faster barrier.
* fix missing synchronization in atomic store on i386 and x86_64Rich Felker2015-07-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | despite being strongly ordered, the x86 memory model does not preclude reordering of loads across earlier stores. while a plain store suffices as a release barrier, we actually need a full barrier, since users of a_store subsequently load a waiter count to determine whether to issue a futex wait, and using a stale count will result in soft (fail-to-wake) deadlocks. these deadlocks were observed in malloc and possible with stdio locks and other libc-internal locking. on i386, an atomic operation on the caller's stack is used as the barrier rather than performing the store itself using xchg; this avoids the need to read the cache line on which the store is being performed. mfence is used on x86_64 where it's always available, and could be used on i386 with the appropriate cpu model checks if it's shown to perform better.
* fix inconsistency in a_and and a_or argument types on x86[_64]Rich Felker2015-05-201-4/+4
| | | | | | conceptually, and on other archs, these functions take a pointer to int, but in the i386, x86_64, and x32 versions of atomic.h, they took a pointer to void instead.
* dynamic linker bootstrap overhaulRich Felker2015-04-132-39/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | this overhaul further reduces the amount of arch-specific code needed by the dynamic linker and removes a number of assumptions, including: - that symbolic function references inside libc are bound at link time via the linker option -Bsymbolic-functions. - that libc functions used by the dynamic linker do not require access to data symbols. - that static/internal function calls and data accesses can be made without performing any relocations, or that arch-specific startup code handled any such relocations needed. removing these assumptions paves the way for allowing libc.so itself to be built with stack protector (among other things), and is achieved by a three-stage bootstrap process: 1. relative relocations are processed with a flat function. 2. symbolic relocations are processed with no external calls/data. 3. main program and dependency libs are processed with a fully-functional libc/ldso. reduction in arch-specific code is achived through the following: - crt_arch.h, used for generating crt1.o, now provides the entry point for the dynamic linker too. - asm is no longer responsible for skipping the beginning of argv[] when ldso is invoked as a command. - the functionality previously provided by __reloc_self for heavily GOT-dependent RISC archs is now the arch-agnostic stage-1. - arch-specific relocation type codes are mapped directly as macros rather than via an inline translation function/switch statement.
* move O_PATH definition back to arch bitsRich Felker2015-04-011-0/+1
| | | | | | | while it's the same for all presently supported archs, it differs at least on sparc, and conceptually it's no less arch-specific than the other O_* macros. O_SEARCH and O_EXEC are still defined in terms of O_PATH in the main fcntl.h.
* fix MINSIGSTKSZ values for archs with large signal contextsRich Felker2015-03-181-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | the previous values (2k min and 8k default) were too small for some archs. aarch64 reserves 4k in the signal context for future extensions and requires about 4.5k total, and powerpc reportedly uses over 2k. the new minimums are chosen to fit the saved context and also allow a minimal signal handler to run. since the default (SIGSTKSZ) has always been 6k larger than the minimum, it is also increased to maintain the 6k usable by the signal handler. this happens to be able to store one pathname buffer and should be sufficient for calling any function in libc that doesn't involve conversion between floating point and decimal representations. x86 (both 32-bit and 64-bit variants) may also need a larger minimum (around 2.5k) in the future to support avx-512, but the values on these archs are left alone for now pending further analysis. the value for PTHREAD_STACK_MIN is not increased to match MINSIGSTKSZ at this time. this is so as not to preclude applications from using extremely small thread stacks when they know they will not be handling signals. unfortunately cancellation and multi-threaded set*id() use signals as an implementation detail and therefore require a stack large enough for a signal context, so applications which use extremely small thread stacks may still need to avoid using these features.
* fix FLT_ROUNDS to reflect the current rounding modeSzabolcs Nagy2015-03-071-1/+0
| | | | | Implemented as a wrapper around fegetround introducing a new function to the ABI: __flt_rounds. (fegetround cannot be used directly from float.h)
* fix POLLWRNORM and POLLWRBAND on mipsTrutz Behn2015-03-041-0/+0
| | | | | | these macros have the same distinct definition on blackfin, frv, m68k, mips, sparc and xtensa kernels. POLLMSG and POLLRDHUP additionally differ on sparc.
* make all objects used with atomic operations volatileRich Felker2015-03-031-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | the memory model we use internally for atomics permits plain loads of values which may be subject to concurrent modification without requiring that a special load function be used. since a compiler is free to make transformations that alter the number of loads or the way in which loads are performed, the compiler is theoretically free to break this usage. the most obvious concern is with atomic cas constructs: something of the form tmp=*p;a_cas(p,tmp,f(tmp)); could be transformed to a_cas(p,*p,f(*p)); where the latter is intended to show multiple loads of *p whose resulting values might fail to be equal; this would break the atomicity of the whole operation. but even more fundamental breakage is possible. with the changes being made now, objects that may be modified by atomics are modeled as volatile, and the atomic operations performed on them by other threads are modeled as asynchronous stores by hardware which happens to be acting on the request of another thread. such modeling of course does not itself address memory synchronization between cores/cpus, but that aspect was already handled. this all seems less than ideal, but it's the best we can do without mandating a C11 compiler and using the C11 model for atomics. in the case of pthread_once_t, the ABI type of the underlying object is not volatile-qualified. so we are assuming that accessing the object through a volatile-qualified lvalue via casts yields volatile access semantics. the language of the C standard is somewhat unclear on this matter, but this is an assumption the linux kernel also makes, and seems to be the correct interpretation of the standard.
* add syscall numbers for the new execveat syscallSzabolcs Nagy2015-02-091-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | this syscall allows fexecve to be implemented without /proc, it is new in linux v3.19, added in commit 51f39a1f0cea1cacf8c787f652f26dfee9611874 (sh and microblaze do not have allocated syscall numbers yet) added a x32 fix as well: the io_setup and io_submit syscalls are no longer common with x86_64, so use the x32 specific numbers.
* remove cruft from x86_64 syscall.hSzabolcs Nagy2015-02-071-23/+0
| | | | | | | x86_64 syscall.h defined some musl internal syscall names and made them public. These defines were already moved to src/internal/syscall.h (except for SYS_fadvise which is added now) so the cruft in x86_64 syscall.h is not needed.
* fix typo in x86_64/x32 user_fpregs_structFelix Janda2015-02-011-1/+1
| | | | mxcs_mask should be mxcr_mask
* move MREMAP_MAYMOVE and MREMAP_FIXED out of bitsTrutz Behn2015-01-301-3/+0
| | | | | | the definitions are generic for all kernel archs. exposure of these macros now only occurs on the same feature test as for the function accepting them, which is believed to be more correct.
* add new syscall numbers for bpf and kexec_file_loadSzabolcs Nagy2014-12-231-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | these syscalls are new in linux v3.18, bpf is present on all supported archs except sh, kexec_file_load is only allocted for x86_64 and x32 yet. bpf was added in linux commit 99c55f7d47c0dc6fc64729f37bf435abf43f4c60 kexec_file_load syscall number was allocated in commit f0895685c7fd8c938c91a9d8a6f7c11f22df58d2

* add explicit barrier operation to internal atomic.h APIRich Felker2014-10-101-0/+5

* add new syscall numbers for seccomp, getrandom, memfd_createSzabolcs Nagy2014-10-081-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | these syscalls are new in linux v3.17 and present on all supported archs except sh. seccomp was added in commit 48dc92b9fc3926844257316e75ba11eb5c742b2c it has operation, flags and pointer arguments (if flags==0 then it is the same as prctl(PR_SET_SECCOMP,...)), the uapi header for flag definitions is linux/seccomp.h getrandom was added in commit c6e9d6f38894798696f23c8084ca7edbf16ee895 it provides an entropy source when open("/dev/urandom",..) would fail, the uapi header for flags is linux/random.h memfd_create was added in commit 9183df25fe7b194563db3fec6dc3202a5855839c it allows anon mmap to have an fd, that can be shared, sealed and needs no mount point, the uapi header for flags is linux/memfd.h
* add threads.h and needed per-arch types for mtx_t and cnd_tRich Felker2014-09-061-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | based on patch by Jens Gustedt. mtx_t and cnd_t are defined in such a way that they are formally "compatible types" with pthread_mutex_t and pthread_cond_t, respectively, when accessed from a different translation unit. this makes it possible to implement the C11 functions using the pthread functions (which will dereference them with the pthread types) without having to use the same types, which would necessitate either namespace violations (exposing pthread type names in threads.h) or incompatible changes to the C++ name mangling ABI for the pthread types. for the rest of the types, things are much simpler; using identical types is possible without any namespace considerations.
* add max_align_t definition for C11 and C++11Rich Felker2014-08-201-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | unfortunately this needs to be able to vary by arch, because of a huge mess GCC made: the GCC definition, which became the ABI, depends on quirks in GCC's definition of __alignof__, which does not match the formal alignment of the type. GCC's __alignof__ unexpectedly exposes the an implementation detail, its "preferred alignment" for the type, rather than the formal/ABI alignment of the type, which it only actually uses in structures. on most archs the two values are the same, but on some (at least i386) the preferred alignment is greater than the ABI alignment. I considered using _Alignas(8) unconditionally, but on at least one arch (or1k), the alignment of max_align_t with GCC's definition is only 4 (even the "preferred alignment" for these types is only 4).
* make pointers used in robust list volatileRich Felker2014-08-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | when manipulating the robust list, the order of stores matters, because the code may be asynchronously interrupted by a fatal signal and the kernel will then access the robust list in what is essentially an async-signal context. previously, aliasing considerations made it seem unlikely that a compiler could reorder the stores, but proving that they could not be reordered incorrectly would have been extremely difficult. instead I've opted to make all the pointers used as part of the robust list, including those in the robust list head and in the individual mutexes, volatile. in addition, the format of the robust list has been changed to point back to the head at the end, rather than ending with a null pointer. this is to match the documented kernel robust list ABI. the null pointer, which was previously used, only worked because faults during access terminate the robust list processing.
* clean up unused and inconsistent atomics in arch dirsRich Felker2014-07-271-25/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | the a_cas_l, a_swap_l, a_swap_p, and a_store_l operations were probably used a long time ago when only i386 and x86_64 were supported. as other archs were added, support for them was inconsistent, and they are obviously not in use at present. having them around potentially confuses readers working on new ports, and the type-punning hacks and inconsistent use of types in their definitions is not a style I wish to perpetuate in the source tree, so removing them seems appropriate.
* add syscall numbers for the new renameat2 syscallSzabolcs Nagy2014-07-201-0/+3
