From 0ff18be20833928064f6eff88e590cea9625f602 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rich Felker Date: Wed, 15 Jan 2020 16:15:49 -0500 Subject: fix incorrect __hwcap seen in dynamic-linked __set_thread_area the bug fixed in commit b82cd6c78d812d38c31febba5a9e57dbaa7919c4 was mostly masked on arm because __hwcap was zero at the point of the call from the dynamic linker to __set_thread_area, causing the access to libc.auxv to be skipped and kuser_helper versions of TLS access and atomics to be used instead of the armv6 or v7 versions. however, on kernels with kuser_helper removed for hardening it would crash. since __set_thread_area potentially uses __hwcap, it must be initialized before the function is called. move the AT_HWCAP lookup from stage 3 to stage 2b. --- ldso/dynlink.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'ldso/dynlink.c') diff --git a/ldso/dynlink.c b/ldso/dynlink.c index a18461e3..afec985a 100644 --- a/ldso/dynlink.c +++ b/ldso/dynlink.c @@ -1670,6 +1670,7 @@ void __dls2b(size_t *sp, size_t *auxv) /* Setup early thread pointer in builtin_tls for ldso/libc itself to * use during dynamic linking.
