commit f3ddd173806fd5c60b3f034528ca24542aecc5b9 introduced early
relocations and subsequent reprocessing as part of the dynamic linker
bootstrap overhaul, to allow use of arbitrary libc functions before
the main application and libraries are loaded, but only reprocessed
GOT/PLT relocation types.
commit c093e2e8201524db0d638920e76bcb6b1d925f3a added reprocessing of
non-GOT/PLT relocations to fix an actual regression that was observed
on powerpc, but only for RELA format tables with out-of-line addends.
REL table (inline addends at the relocation address) reprocessing is
trickier because the first relocation pass clobbers the addends.
this patch extends symbolic relocation reprocessing for libc/ldso to
support all relocation types, whether REL or RELA format tables are
used. it is believed not to alter behavior on any existing archs for
the current dynamic linker and libc code. the motivations for this
change are consistency and future-proofing. it ensures that behavior
does not differ depending on whether REL or RELA tables are used,
which could lead to undetected arch-specific bugs. it also ensures
that, if in the future code depending on additional relocation types
is added to libc.so, either at the source level or as part of the
compiler runtime that gets pulled in (for example, soft-float with TLS
for fenv), the new code will work properly.
the implementation concept is simple: stage 2 of the dynamic linker
counts the number of symbolic relocations in the libc/ldso REL table
and allocates a VLA to save their addends into; stage 3 then uses the
saved addends in place of the inline ones which were clobbered. for
stack safety, a hard limit (currently 4k) is imposed on the number of
such addends; this should be a couple orders of magnitude larger than
the actual need. this number is not a runtime variable that could
break fail-safety; it is constant for a given libc.so build.

this move eliminates a duplicate "by-hand" symbol lookup loop from the
stage-1 code and replaces it with a call to find_sym, which can be
used once we're in stage 2. it reduces the size of the stage 1 code,
which is helpful because stage 1 will become the crt start file for
static-PIE executables, and it will allow stage 3 to access stage 2's
automatic storage, which will be important in an upcoming commit.

the outer-loop approach made sense when we were also processing
DT_JMPREL, which might be in REL or RELA form, to avoid major code
duplication. commit 09db855b35709aa627d7055c57a98e1e471920ab removed
processing of DT_JMPREL, and in the remaining two tables, the format
(REL or RELA) is known by the name of the table. simply writing two
versions of the loop results in smaller and simpler code.
|
|
the DT_JMPREL relocation table necessarily consists entirely of
JMP_SLOT (REL_PLT in internal nomenclature) relocations, which are
symbolic; they cannot be resolved in stage 1, so there is no point in
processing them.

the instruction used to align the stack, "and $sp, $sp, -8", does not
actually exist; it's expanded to 2 instructions using the 'at'
(assembler temporary) register, and thus cannot be used in a branch
delay slot. since alignment mod 16 commutes with subtracting 8, simply
swapping these two operations fixes the problem.
crt1.o was not affected because it's still being generated from a
dedicated asm source file. dlstart.lo was not affected because the
stack pointer it receives is already aligned by the kernel. but
Scrt1.o was affected in cases where the dynamic linker gave it a
misaligned stack pointer.

i386 and x86_64 versions already had the .text directive; other archs
did not. normally, top-level (file scope) __asm__ starts in the .text
section anyway, but problems were reported with some versions of
clang, and it seems preferable to set it explicitly anyway, at least
for the sake of consistency between archs.
|
|
the comment claimed that EUC/GBK/Big5 are not implemented, which has
been incorrect since commit 19b4a0a20efc6b9df98b6a43536ecdd628ba4643.
|
|
while not a requirement, it's common convention in other iconv
implementations to accept "CHAR" as an alias for nl_langinfo(CODESET),
meaning the encoding used for char[] strings in the current locale,
and also "" as an alternate form. supporting this is not costly and
improves compatibility.
|
|
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.
|
|
If we're building for sh4a, the compiler is already free to use
instructions only available on sh4a, so we can do the same and inline the
llsc atomics. If we're building for an older processor, we still do the
same runtime atomics selection as before.

this fixes a regression on powerpc that was introduced in commit
f3ddd173806fd5c60b3f034528ca24542aecc5b9. global data accesses on
powerpc seem to be using a translation-unit-local GOT filled via
R_PPC_ADDR32 relocations rather than R_PPC_GLOB_DAT. being a non-GOT
relocation type, these were not reprocessed after adding the main
application and its libraries to the chain, causing libc code not to
see copy relocations in the main program, and therefore to use the
pre-copy-relocation addresses for global data objects (like environ).
the motivation for the dynamic linker only reprocessing GOT/PLT
relocation types in stage 3 is that these types always have a zero
addend, making them safe to process again even if the storage for the
addend has been clobbered. other relocation types which can be used
for address constants in initialized data objects may have non-zero
addends which will be clobbered during the first pass of relocation
processing if they're stored inline (REL form) rather than out-of-line
(RELA form).
powerpc generally uses only RELA, so this patch is sufficient to fix
the regression in practice, but is not fully general, and would not
suffice if an alternate toolchain generated REL for powerpc.

if setlocale has not been called, the current locale's messages_name
may be a null pointer. the code path where it's assumed to be non-null
was only reachable if bindtextdomain had already been called, which is
normally not done in programs which do not call setlocale, so the
omitted check went unnoticed.
patch from Void Linux, with description rewritten.

the code being removed used atomics to track whether any threads might
be using a locale other than the current global locale, and whether
any threads might have abstract 8-bit (non-UTF-8) LC_CTYPE active, a
feature which was never committed (still pending). the motivations
were to support early execution prior to setup of the thread pointer,
to partially support systems (ancient kernels) where thread pointer
setup is not possible, and to avoid high performance cost on archs
where accessing the thread pointer may be very slow.
since commit 19a1fe670acb3ab9ead0fe31859ca7d4fe40dd54, the thread
pointer is always available, so these hacks are no longer needed.
removing them greatly simplifies the affected code.

commit f630df09b1fd954eda16e2f779da0b5ecc9d80d3 added logic to handle
the case where __set_thread_area is called more than once by reusing
the GDT slot already in the %gs register, and only setting up a new
GDT slot when %gs is zero. this created a hidden assumption that %gs
is zero when a new process image starts, which is true in practice on
Linux, but does not seem to be documented ABI, and fails to hold under
qemu app-level emulation.
while it would in theory be possible to zero %gs in the entry point
code, this code is shared between static and dynamic binaries, and
dynamic binaries must not clobber the value of %gs already setup by
the dynamic linker.
the alternative solution implemented in this commit simply uses global
data to store the GDT index that's selected. __set_thread_area should
only be called in the initial thread anyway (subsequent threads get
their thread pointer setup by __clone), but even if it were called by
another thread, it would simply read and write back the same GDT index
that was already assigned to the initial thread, and thus (in the x86
memory model) there is no data race.

compilers targeting armv7 may be configured to produce thumb2 code
instead of arm code by default, and in the future we may wish to
support targets where only the thumb instruction set is available.
the instructions this patch omits in thumb mode are needed only for
non-thumb versions of armv4 or earlier, which are not supported by any
current compilers/toolchains and thus rather pointless to have. at
some point these compatibility return sequences may be removed from
all asm source files, and in that case it would make sense to remove
them here too and remove the ifdef.

compilers targeting armv7 may be configured to produce thumb2 code
instead of arm code by default, and in the future we may wish to
support targets where only the thumb instruction set is available.
the changes made here avoid operating directly on the sp register,
which is not possible in thumb code, and address an issue with the way
the address of _DYNAMIC is computed.
previously, the relative address of _DYNAMIC was stored with an
additional offset of -8 versus the pc-relative add instruction, since
on arm the pc register evaluates to ".+8". in thumb code, it instead
evaluates to ".+4". both are two (normal-size) instructions beyond "."
in the current execution mode, so the numbered label 2 used in the
relative address expression is simply moved two instructions ahead to
be compatible with both instruction sets.

a null pointer is valid here and indicates that the current time
should be used. based on patch by Felix Janda, simplified.

i386, x86_64, x32, and powerpc all use TLS for stack protector canary
values in the default stack protector ABI, but the location only
matched the ABI on i386 and x86_64. on x32, the expected location for
the canary contained the tid, thus producing spurious mismatches
(resulting in process termination) upon fork. on powerpc, the expected
location contained the stdio_locks list head, so returning from a
function after calling flockfile produced spurious mismatches. in both
cases, the random canary was not present, and a predictable value was
used instead, making the stack protector hardening much less effective
than it should be.
in the current fix, the thread structure has been expanded to have
canary fields at all three possible locations, and archs that use a
non-default location must define a macro in pthread_arch.h to choose
which location is used. for most archs (which lack TLS canary ABI) the
choice does not matter.

this is analogous to commit 2ca55a93f2a11185d72dcb69006fd2c30b5c3144
for the macros in ctype.h.

the 64-bit push reads not only the 32-bit return address but also the
first 32 signal mask bits. if any were nonzero, the return address
obtained will be invalid.
at some point storage of the return address should probably be moved
to follow the saved mask so that there's plenty room and the same code
can be used on x32 and regular x86_64, but for now I want a fix that
does not risk breaking x86_64, and this simple re-zeroing works.

the kernel does not properly clear the upper bits of the syscall
argument, so we have to do it before the syscall.
|
|
the lifetime of compound literals is the block in which they appear.
the temporary struct __timespec_kernel objects created as compound
literals no longer existed at the time their addresses were passed to
the kernel.
|
|
These macros were introduced in glibc 2.12 to follow RFC 2474 which
deprecates "IP Precedence" in favor of "Class Selector Codepoints".
|
|
These cases were incorrect in C11 as described by
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1886.htm
|
|
|
|
due to an incorrect return statement in this error case, the
previously blocked cancellation state was not restored and no result
was stored. this could lead to invalid (read) accesses in the caller
resulting in crashes or nonsensical result data in the event of memory
exhaustion.
|
|
remove __syscall declaration where it is not needed (aarch64, arm,
microblaze, or1k) and add the hidden attribute where it is (mips).

commit f3ddd173806fd5c60b3f034528ca24542aecc5b9 broke the build by
using "bx" instead of "br".

while the sh port is still experimental and subject to ABI
instability, this is not actually an application/libc boundary ABI
change. it only affects third-party APIs where jmp_buf is used in a
shared structure at the ABI boundary, because nothing anywhere near
the end of the jmp_buf object (which includes the oversized sigset_t)
is accessed by libc.
both glibc and uclibc have 15-slot jmp_buf for sh. presumably the
smaller version was used in musl because the slots for fpu status
register and thread pointer register (gbr) were incorrect and must not
be restored by longjmp, but the size should have been preserved, as
it's generally treated as a libc-agnostic ABI property for the arch,
and having extra slots free in case we ever need them for something is
useful anyway.

at least some assembler versions do not accept the register name lr.
use the name x30 instead.
|
|
previously it was using the same name as the default ABI with hard
float (floating point args and return value in registers).
the test __SH_FPU_ANY__ || __SH4__ matches what's used in the
configure script already, and seems correct under casual review
against gcc's config/sh.h, but may need tweaks. the logic for
predefined macros for sh, and what they all mean, is very complex.
eventually this should be documented in comments here.
configure already rejects "half-hard" configurations on sh where
double=float since these do not conform to Annex F and are not
suitable for musl, so these do not need to be considered here.

commit 646cb9a4a04e5ed78e2dd928bf9dc6e79202f609 switched sigsetjmp to
use the new hidden ___setjmp symbol for setjmp, but the nofpu variant
of setjmp.s was not updated to match.
|

versions of reloc.h that rely on endian macros much include endian.h
to ensure they are available.
|
|
both static and dynamic linked versions of the __copy_tls function
have a hidden assumption that the alignment of the beginning or end of
the memory passed is suitable for storing an array of pointers for the
dtv. pthread_create satisfies this requirement except when
libc.tls_size is misaligned, which cannot happen with dynamic linking
due to way update_tls_size computes the total size, but could happen
with static linking and odd-sized TLS.
|
|
commit dab441aea240f3b7c18a26d2ef51979ea36c301c, which made thread
pointer init mandatory for all programs, rendered this store obsolete
by removing the early-return path for static programs with no TLS.
|
|
this slightly reduces the code size cost of TLS/thread-pointer for
static linking since __init_tp can be inlined into its only caller and
removed. this is analogous to the handling of __init_libc in
__libc_start_main, where the function only has external linkage when
it needs to be called from the dynamic linker.

the implicit-operand form of fucomip is rejected by binutils 2.19 and
perhaps other versions still in use. writing both operands explicitly
fixes the issue. there is no change to the resulting output.
commit a732e80d33b4fd6f510f7cec4f5573ef5d89bc4e was the source of this
regression.

|
use CAS instead of swap since it's lighter for most archs, and keep
EBUSY in the lock value so that the old value obtained by CAS can be
used directly as the return value for pthread_spin_trylock.
|
|
|
|
the motivation for this change is that the extra declaration (with or
without visibility) using "struct _IO_FILE" instead of "FILE" seems to
trigger a bug in gcc 3.x where it considers the types mismatched.
however, this change also results in slightly better code and it is
valid because (1) these three objects are constant, and (2) applying
the & operator to any of them is invalid C, since they are not even
specified to be objects. thus it does not matter if the application
and libc see different addresses for them, as long as the (initial,
unchanging) value is seen the same by both.
|
|
these are used as hidden by asm files (and such use is the whole
reason they exist), but their actual definitions were not hidden.
|
|
commit f9cccfc16e58b39ee381fbdfb8688db3bb8e3555 left behind the part
in libc.c; remove it too.
