2011-09-18disable dynamic linking/loading code in static libc builds, for nowRich Felker-0/+2
it does not work, but some configure scripts will falsely detect support then generate programs that crash when they call dlopen.
2011-08-16ldso: move the suid/secure check code closer to env/auxv processingRich Felker-7/+7
this does not change behavior, but the idea is to avoid letting other code build up between these two points, whereby the environment variables might get used before security it checked.
2011-08-16honor AT_SECURE aux vector flagRich Felker-2/+2
2011-08-16RTLD_NEXT supportRich Felker-3/+8
the asm wrapper is needed to get the return address without compiler-specific extensions.
2011-08-16LD_PRELOAD supportRich Felker-0/+20
2011-07-25when resolving symbols with only weak defs, use first def, not last defRich Felker-0/+1
2011-07-24fix resolution of weak symbols (hopefully right now) and vdsoRich Felker-3/+9
2011-07-24load vdso, if present, into the dso listRich Felker-2/+31
2011-07-24simplify dynamic linker startupRich Felker-23/+17
instead of creating temp dso objects on the stack and moving them to the heap if dlopen/dlsym are used, use static objects to begin with, and just donate them to malloc if we no longer need them.
2011-07-01fix dlopen UB due to longjmp/volatile rules violationRich Felker-1/+1
2011-06-30simple rpath support (no token expansion yet) for dynamic linkerRich Felker-2/+8
2011-06-29textrel support, cheap and uglyRich Felker-0/+5
2011-06-28reclaim the memory wasted by dynamic linking for use by mallocRich Felker-0/+39
2011-06-28use load address from elf header if possibleRich Felker-1/+1
this is mostly useless for shared libs (though it could help for prelink-like purposes); the intended use case is for adding support for calling the dynamic linker directly to run a program, as in: ./libc.so ./a.out foo this usage is not yet supported.
2011-06-28make dynamic linker relocate the main program image last, after all libsRich Felker-0/+1
prior to this change, copy relocations for initialized pointer variables would not reflect the relocated contents of the pointer.
2011-06-26fix stale pointer issue in dynamic linker with dlopenRich Felker-0/+1
2011-06-26don't leave the lock held on dlopen failure..Rich Felker-2/+2
2011-06-26add RTLD_DEFAULT supportRich Felker-1/+2
2011-06-26in dlopen: don't use null pointerRich Felker-3/+3
deps can be null if a library has no dependencies (such as libc itself)
2011-06-26fix resolving symbols in objects loaded in RTLD_LOCAL modeRich Felker-0/+11
basically we temporarily make the library and all its dependencies part of the global namespace but only for the duration of performing relocations, then return them to their former state.
2011-06-26experimental dlopen/dlsym and dynlink changes needed to support themRich Felker-8/+125
2011-06-26error handling in dynamic linkingRich Felker-2/+19
some of the code is not yet used, and is in preparation for dlopen which needs to be able to handle failure loading libraries without terminating the program.
2011-06-25fix some symbol resolution issues in dynamic linkerRich Felker-4/+4
1. search was wrongly beginning with lib itself rather than dso head 2. inconsistent resolution of function pointers for functions in plt
2011-06-25handle library paths better (ignore empty path components, etc.)Rich Felker-3/+5
2011-06-25fix possible (questionable) strict aliasing violations and ptr arithRich Felker-3/+3
2011-06-25proper path searching for dynamic linkerRich Felker-14/+38
first, use $LD_LIBRARY_PATH unless suid. if that fails, read path from /etc/ld-musl-$ARCH.path and fallback to a builtin default.
2011-06-25discard dso descriptors after performing relocationsRich Felker-0/+12
eventually (once dlopen exists) this behavior will be conditional on dlopen/dlsym not being reachable.
2011-06-25keep track of which dsos have been relocatedRich Felker-0/+1
2011-06-23prepare support for LD_LIBRARY_PATH (checking suid/sgid safety)Rich Felker-0/+6
the use of this test will be much stricter than glibc and other typical implementations; the environment will not be honored whatsoever unless the program is confirmed non-suid/sgid by the aux vector the kernel passed in. no fallback to slow syscall-based checking is used if the kernel fails to provide the information; we simply assume the worst (suid) in this case and refuse to honor environment.
2011-06-18dynamic linker 64bit fix: hash table entries are always 32bitRich Felker-2/+2
2011-06-18experimental dynamic linker!Rich Felker-0/+385
some notes: - library search path is hard coded - x86_64 code is untested and may not work - dlopen/dlsym is not yet implemented - relocations in read-only memory won't work
