* refactor group file access codeJosiah Worcester2015-02-136-51/+71
| | | | | this allows getgrnam and getgrgid to share code with the _r versions in preparation for alternate backend support.
* overhaul aio implementation for correctnessRich Felker2015-02-139-193/+440
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | previously, aio operations were not tracked by file descriptor; each operation was completely independent. this resulted in non-conforming behavior for non-seekable/append-mode writes (which are required to be ordered) and made it impossible to implement aio_cancel, which in turn made closing file descriptors with outstanding aio operations unsafe. the new implementation is significantly heavier (roughly twice the size, and seems to be slightly slower) and presently aims mainly at correctness, not performance. most of the public interfaces have been moved into a single file, aio.c, because there is little benefit to be had from splitting them. whenever any aio functions are used, aio_cancel and the internal queue lifetime management and fd-to-queue mapping code must be linked, and these functions make up the bulk of the code size. the close function's interaction with aio is implemented with weak alias magic, to avoid pulling in heavy aio cancellation code in programs that don't use aio, and the expensive cancellation path (which includes signal blocking) is optimized out when there are no active aio queues.
* fix bad character checking in wordexpRich Felker2015-02-111-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | the character sequence '$((' was incorrectly interpreted as the opening of arithmetic even within single-quoted contexts, thereby suppressing the checks for bad characters after the closing quote. presently bad character checking is only performed when the WRDE_NOCMD is used; this patch only corrects checking in that case.
* refactor passwd file access codeJosiah Worcester2015-02-106-49/+65
| | | | | this allows getpwnam and getpwuid to share code with the _r versions in preparation for alternate backend support.
* x86_64/memset: avoid performing final store twiceDenys Vlasenko2015-02-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The code does a potentially misaligned 8-byte store to fill the tail of the buffer. Then it fills the initial part of the buffer which is a multiple of 8 bytes. Therefore, if size is divisible by 8, we were storing last word twice. This patch decrements byte count before dividing it by 8, making one less store in "size is divisible by 8" case, and not changing anything in all other cases. All at the cost of replacing one MOV insn with LEA insn. Signed-off-by: Denys Vlasenko <vda.linux@googlemail.com>
* x86_64/memset: simple optimizationsDenys Vlasenko2015-02-101-14/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "and $0xff,%esi" is a six-byte insn (81 e6 ff 00 00 00), can use 4-byte "movzbl %sil,%esi" (40 0f b6 f6) instead. 64-bit imul is slow, move it as far up as possible so that the result (rax) has more time to be ready by the time we start using it in mem stores. There is no need to shuffle registers in preparation to "rep movs" if we are not going to take that code path. Thus, patch moves "jump if len < 16" instructions up, and changes alternate code path to use rdx and rdi instead of rcx and r8. Signed-off-by: Denys Vlasenko <vda.linux@googlemail.com>
* make protocol table zero byte separated and add ipv6 protocolsTimo Teräs2015-02-101-22/+26

* use the internal macro name FUTEX_PRIVATE in __waitSzabolcs Nagy2015-02-091-1/+1
| | | | | the name was recently added for the setxid/synccall rework, so use the name now that we have it.
* add IEEE binary128 long double support to floatscanSzabolcs Nagy2015-02-091-1/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | just defining the necessary constants: LD_B1B_MAX is 2^113 - 1 in base 10^9 KMAX is 2048 so the x array can hold up to 18432 decimal digits (the worst case is converting 2^-16495 = 5^16495 * 10^-16495 to binary, it requires the processing of int(log10(5)*16495)+1 = 11530 decimal digits after discarding the leading zeros, the conversion requires some headroom in x, but KMAX is more than enough for that) However this code is not optimal on archs with IEEE binary128 long double because the arithmetics is software emulated (on all such platforms as far as i know) which means big and slow strtod.
* math: fix fmodl for IEEE binary128Szabolcs Nagy2015-02-091-1/+1
| | | | | This trivial copy-paste bug went unnoticed due to lack of testing. No currently supported target archs are affected.
* simplify armhf fesetenvSzabolcs Nagy2015-02-081-1/+0
| | | | armhf fesetenv implementation did a useless read of the fpscr.
* fix fesetenv(FE_DFL_ENV) on mipsSzabolcs Nagy2015-02-081-1/+3
| | | | | mips fesetenv did not handle FE_DFL_ENV, now fcsr is cleared in that case.
* math: fix __fpclassifyl(-0.0) for IEEE binary128Szabolcs Nagy2015-02-081-3/+2
| | | | | The sign bit was not cleared before checking for 0 so -0.0 was misclassified as FP_SUBNORMAL instead of FP_ZERO.
* add parenthesis in fma.c to clarify intent and silence warningsSzabolcs Nagy2015-02-081-1/+1

* make getaddrinfo support SOCK_RAW and other socket typesRich Felker2015-02-074-34/+42
| | | | | | | | | all socket types are accepted at this point, but that may be changed at a later time if the behavior is not meaningful for other types. as before, omitting type (a value of 0) gives both UDP and TCP results, and SOCK_DGRAM or SOCK_STREAM restricts to UDP or TCP, respectively. for other socket types, the service name argument is required to be a null pointer, and the protocol number provided by the caller is used.
* remove cruft from x86_64 syscall.hSzabolcs Nagy2015-02-071-0/+3
| | | | | | | 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 failure of fchmodat to report EOPNOTSUPP in the race pathRich Felker2015-02-051-2/+4
| | | | | | | in the case where a non-symlink file was replaced by a symlink during the fchmodat operation with AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mode change on the new symlink target was successfully suppressed, but the error was not reported. instead, fchmodat simply returned 0.
* fix fd leak race (missing O_CLOEXEC) in fchmodatRich Felker2015-02-041-1/+1

* make execvp continue PATH search on EACCES rather than issuing an errrorRich Felker2015-02-031-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | the specification for execvp itself is unclear as to whether encountering a file that cannot be executed due to EACCES during the PATH search is a mandatory error condition; however, XBD 8.3's specification of the PATH environment variable clarifies that the search continues until a file with "appropriate execution permissions" is found. since it seems undesirable/erroneous to report ENOENT rather than EACCES when an early path element has a non-executable file and all later path elements lack any file by the requested name, the new code stores a flag indicating that EACCES was seen and sets errno back to EACCES in this case.
* fix missing memory barrier in cancellation signal handlerRich Felker2015-02-031-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | in practice this was probably a non-issue, because the necessary barrier almost certainly exists in kernel space -- implementing signal delivery without such a barrier seems impossible -- but for the sake of correctness, it should be done here too. in principle, without a barrier, it is possible that the thread to be cancelled does not see the store of its cancellation flag performed by another thread. this affects both the case where the signal arrives before entering the critical program counter range from __cp_begin to __cp_end (in which case both the signal handler and the inline check fail to see the value which was already stored) and the case where the signal arrives during the critical range (in which case the signal handler should be responsible for cancellation, but when it does not see the cancellation flag, it assumes the signal is spurious and refuses to act on it). in the fix, the barrier is placed only in the signal handler, not in the inline check at the beginning of the critical program counter range. if the signal handler runs before the critical range is entered, it will of course take no action, but its barrier will ensure that the inline check subsequently sees the store. if on the other hand the inline check runs first, it may miss seeing the store, but the subsequent signal handler in the critical range will act upon the cancellation request. this strategy avoids adding a memory barrier in the common, non-cancellation code path.
* make fsync, fdatasync, and msync cancellation pointsTrutz Behn2015-01-303-3/+3
| | | | | these are mandatory cancellation points per POSIX, so their omission was a conformance bug.
* fix missing comma in sh setjmp asmTrutz Behn2015-01-301-1/+1
| | | | | | this typo did not result in an erroneous setjmp with at least binutils 2.22 but fix it for clarity and compatibility with potentially stricter sh assemblers.
* fix erroneous return of partial username matches by getspnam[_r]Rich Felker2015-01-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | when using /etc/shadow (rather than tcb) as its backend, getspnam_r matched any username starting with the caller-provided string rather than requiring an exact match. in practice this seems to have affected only systems where one valid username is a prefix for another valid username, and where the longer username appears first in the shadow file.
* simplify part of getopt_longRich Felker2015-01-211-13/+11
| | | | | | | as a result of commit e8e4e56a8ce1f3d7e4a027ff5478f2f8ea70c46b, the later code path for setting optarg to a null pointer is no longer necessary, and removing it eliminates an indention level and arguably makes the code more readable.
* always set optarg in getopt_longRich Felker2015-01-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | the standard getopt does not touch optarg unless processing an option with an argument. however, programs using the GNU getopt API, which we attempt to provide in getopt_long, expect optarg to be a null pointer after processing an option without an argument. before argument permutation support was added, such programs typically detected its absence and used their own replacement getopt_long, masking the discrepency in behavior.
* overhaul __synccall and fix AS-safety and other issues in set*idRich Felker2015-01-152-45/+138
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | multi-threaded set*id and setrlimit use the internal __synccall function to work around the kernel's wrongful treatment of these process properties as thread-local. the old implementation of __synccall failed to be AS-safe, despite POSIX requiring setuid and setgid to be AS-safe, and was not rigorous in assuring that all threads were caught. in a worst case, threads late in the process of exiting could retain permissions after setuid reported success, in which case attacks to regain dropped permissions may have been possible under the right conditions. the new implementation of __synccall depends on the presence of /proc/self/task and will fail if it can't be opened, but is able to determine that it has caught all threads, and does not use any locks except its own. it thereby achieves AS-safety simply by blocking signals to preclude re-entry in the same thread. with this commit, all known conformance and safety issues in set*id functions should be fixed.
* add FUTEX_PRIVATE macro to internal futex.hRich Felker2015-01-151-0/+2
|
* suppress EINTR in sem_wait and sem_timedwaitRich Felker2015-01-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | per POSIX, the EINTR condition is an optional error for these functions, not a mandatory one. since old kernels (pre-2.6.22) failed to honor SA_RESTART for the futex syscall, it's dangerous to trust EINTR from the kernel. thankfully POSIX offers an easy way out.
* for multithreaded set*id/setrlimit, handle case where callback does not runRich Felker2015-01-152-4/+4
| | | | | | | | in the current version of __synccall, the callback is always run, so failure to handle this case did not matter. however, the upcoming overhaul of __synccall will have failure cases, in which case the callback does not run and errno is already set. the changes being committed now are in preparation for that.
* increase syslog message limit from 256 to 1024Rich Felker2015-01-131-1/+1
| | | | | this addresses alpine linux issue #3692 and brings the syslog message length limit in alignment with uclibc's implementation.
* remove rlimit hacks from multi-threaded set*id() codeRich Felker2015-01-121-23/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | the code being removed was introduced to work around "partial failure" of multi-threaded set*id() operations, where some threads would succeed in changing their ids but an RLIMIT_NPROC setting would prevent the rest from succeeding, leaving the process in an inconsistent and dangerous state. however, the workaround code did not handle important usage cases like swapping real and effective uids then restoring their original values, and the wrongful kernel enforcement of RLIMIT_NPROC at setuid time was removed in Linux 3.1, making the workaround obsolete. since the partial failure still is dangerous on old kernels, and could in principle happen on post-fix kernels as well if set*id() syscalls fail for another spurious reason such as resource-related failures, new code is added to detect and forcibly kill the process if/when such a situation arises. future documentation releases should be updated to reflect that setting RLIMIT_NPROC to RLIM_INFINITY is necessary to avoid this forced-kill on old kernels. ideally, at some point the kernel will get proper multi-threaded set*id() syscalls capable of performing their actions atomically, and all of the userspace code to emulate them can be treated as a fallback for outdated kernels.
* simplify ctermidRich Felker2015-01-121-14/+2
| | | | | | | | | | opening /dev/tty then using ttyname_r on it does not produce a canonical terminal name; it simply yields "/dev/tty". it would be possible to make ctermid determine the actual controlling terminal device via field 7 of /proc/self/stat, but doing so would introduce a buffer overflow into applications built with L_ctermid==9, which glibc defines, adversely affecting the quality of ABI compat.
* fix regression in getopt_long support for non-option argumentsRich Felker2015-01-111-7/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit b72cd07f176b876aa51864d93aa8101477b1d732 added support for a this feature in getopt, but it was later broken in the case where getopt_long is used as a side effect of the changes made in commit 91184c4f16b143107fa9935edebe5d2b20bd70d8, which prevented the underlying getopt call from seeing the leading '-' or '+' character in optstring. this commit changes the logic in the getopt_long core to check for a leading colon, possibly after the leading '-' or '+', without depending on the latter having been skipped by the caller. a minor incorrectness in the return value for one error condition in getopt_long is also fixed when opterr has been set to zero but optstring has no leading ':'.
* check for connect failure in syslog log openingRich Felker2015-01-091-2/+6
| | | | | | | based on patch by Dima Krasner, with minor improvements for code size. connect can fail if there is no listening syslogd, in which case a useless socket was kept open, preventing subsequent syslog call from attempting to connect again.
* overhaul forkpty function using new login_ttyRich Felker2014-12-211-26/+45
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | based on discussion with and patches by Felix Janda. these changes started as an effort to factor forkpty in terms of login_tty, which returns an error and skips fd reassignment and closing if setting the controlling terminal failed. the previous forkpty code was unable to handle errors in the child, and did not attempt to; it just silently ignored them. but this would have been unacceptable when switching to using login_tty, since the child would start with the wrong stdin, stdout, and stderr and thereby clobber the parent's files. the new code uses the same technique as the posix_spawn implementation to convey any possible error in the child to the parent so that the parent can report failure to the caller. it is also safe against thread cancellation and against signal delivery in the child prior to the determination of success.
* block pthread cancellation in openpty functionRich Felker2014-12-201-9/+14
| | | | | | | being a nonstandard function, this isn't strictly necessary, but it's inexpensive and avoids unpleasant surprises. eventually I would like all functions in libc to be safe against cancellation, either ignoring it or acting on it cleanly.
* don't write openpty results until success is determinedRich Felker2014-12-201-10/+12
| | | | | | not only is this semantically more correct; it also reduces code size slightly by eliminating the need for the compiler to assume the possibility of aliasing.
* add login_tty functionFelix Janda2014-12-201-0/+14
|
* set optopt in getopt_longRich Felker2014-12-201-0/+1
| | | | | | this is undocumented but possibly expected behavior of GNU getopt_long, and useful when error message printing has been suppressed.
* add error message printing to getopt_long and make related improvementsRich Felker2014-12-202-6/+32
| | | | | some related changes are also made to getopt, and the return value of getopt_long in the case of missing arguments is fixed.
* support translation for getopt error messagesRich Felker2014-12-201-0/+2
|
* fix stderr locking and ferror semantics in getopt message printingRich Felker2014-12-191-12/+16
| | | | | | | | | | if writing the error message fails, POSIX requires that ferror(stderr) be set. and as a function that operates on a stdio stream, getopt is required to lock the stream it uses, stderr. fwrite calls are used instead of fprintf since there is a demand from some users not to pull in heavy stdio machinery via getopt. this mimics the original code using write.
* use tkill instead of tgkill in implementing raiseRich Felker2014-12-181-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | this shaves off a useless syscall for getting the caller's pid and brings raise into alignment with other functions which were adapted to use tkill rather than tgkill. commit 83dc6eb087633abcf5608ad651d3b525ca2ec35e documents the rationale for this change, and in particular why the tgkill syscall is useless for its designed purpose of avoiding races.
* don't suppress sign output for NANs in printfRich Felker2014-12-181-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | formally, it seems a sign is only required when the '+' modifier appears in the format specifier, in which case either '+' or '-' must be present in the output. but the specification is written such that an optional negative sign is part of the output format anyway, and the simplest approach to fixing the problem is removing the code that was suppressing the sign.
* fix return value computation in one code path of wcsnrtombsRich Felker2014-12-181-1/+1
| | | | the affected code was wrongly counting characters instead of bytes.
* provide CMPLX macros in implementation-internal libm.hRich Felker2014-12-171-0/+12
| | | | | | this avoids assuming the presence of C11 macro definitions in the public complex.h, which need changes potentially incompatible with the way these macros are being used internally.
* implement FNM_CASEFOLD extension to fnmatch functionNagy Szabolcs2014-12-171-11/+25
|
* add basic dns record parsing functionsRich Felker2014-12-171-0/+171
| | | | | | | | | | | | based on patch by Timo Teräs, with some corrections to bounds checking code and other minor changes. while they are borderline scope creep, the functions added are fairly small and are roughly the minimum code needed to use the results of the res_query API without re-implementing error-prone DNS packet parsing, and they are used in practice by some kerberos related software and possibly other things. at this time there is no intent to implement further nameser.h API functions.
* correctly handle write errors encountered by printf-family functionsRich Felker2014-12-172-2/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | previously, write errors neither stopped further output attempts nor caused the function to return an error to the caller. this could result in silent loss of output, possibly in the middle of output in the event of a non-permanent error. the simplest solution is temporarily clearing the error flag for the target stream, then suppressing further output when the error flag is set and checking/restoring it at the end of the operation to determine the correct return value. since the wide version of the code internally calls the narrow fprintf to perform some of its underlying operations, initial clearing of the error flag is suppressed when performing a narrow vfprintf on a wide-oriented stream. this is not a problem since the behavior of narrow operations on wide-oriented streams is undefined.
* simplify getopt_long argv permutation loop logicRich Felker2014-12-131-3/+1
