I've updated copyright dates in glibc for 2021. This is the patch for
the changes not generated by scripts/update-copyrights and subsequent
build / regeneration of generated files. As well as the usual annual
updates, mainly dates in --version output (minus csu/version.c which
previously had to be handled manually but is now successfully updated
by update-copyrights), there is a small change to the copyright notice
in NEWS which should let NEWS get updated automatically next year.
Please remember to include 2021 in the dates for any new files added
in future (which means updating any existing uncommitted patches you
have that add new files to use the new copyright dates in them).

I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 6694 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c
and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this
diagnostic from Savannah:
remote: *** pre-commit check failed ...
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master

Add a new glibc tunable: mem.tagging. This is a decimal constant in
the range 0-255 but used as a bit-field.
Bit 0 enables use of tagged memory in the malloc family of functions.
Bit 1 enables precise faulting of tag failure on platforms where this
can be controlled.
Other bits are currently unused, but if set will cause memory tag
checking for the current process to be enabled in the kernel.

Change sbrk to fail for !__libc_initial (in the generic
implementation). As a result, sbrk is (relatively) safe to use
for the __libc_initial case (from the main libc). It is therefore
no longer necessary to avoid using it in that case (or updating the
brk cache), and the __libc_initial flag does not need to be updated
as part of dlmopen or static dlopen.
As before, direct brk system calls on Linux may lead to memory
corruption.

The failure paths in _dl_map_object_from_fd did not clean every
potentially allocated resource up.
Handle l_phdr, l_libname and mapped segments in the common failure
handling code.
There are various bits that may not be cleaned properly on failure
(e.g. executable stack, incomplete dl_map_segments) fixing those

_dl_map_object_from_fd has complex error handling with cleanups.
It was managed by a separate function to avoid code bloat at
every failure case, but since the code was changed to use gotos
there is no longer such code bloat from inlining.
Maintaining a separate error handling function is harder as it
needs to access local state which has to be passed down. And the
same lose function was used in open_verify which is error prone.
The goto labels are changed since there is no longer a call.
The new code generates slightly smaller binary.

_dl_map_object_deps always sorts the initially loaded object first
during dependency sorting. This means it is relocated last in
dl_open_worker. This results in crashes in IFUNC resolvers without
lazy bindings if libraries are preloaded that refer to IFUNCs in
libc.so.6: the resolvers are called when libc.so.6 has not been
relocated yet, so references to _rtld_global_ro etc. crash.
The fix is to check against the libc.so.6 link map recorded by the
__libc_early_init framework, and let it participate in the dependency
sort.
This fixes bug 20972.

To handle GNU property notes on aarch64 some segments need to
be mmaped again, so the fd of the loaded ELF module is needed.
When the fd is not available (kernel loaded modules), then -1
is passed.
The fd is passed to both _dl_process_pt_gnu_property and
_dl_process_pt_note for consistency. Target specific note
processing functions are updated accordingly.

Program headers are processed in two pass: after the first pass
load segments are mmapped so in the second pass target specific
note processing logic can access the notes.
The second pass is moved later so various link_map fields are
set up that may be useful for note processing such as l_phdr.
The second pass should be before the fd is closed so that is
available.

This recognizes the DL_CACHE_HWCAP_EXTENSION flag in cache entries,
and picks the supported cache entry with the highest priority.
The elf/tst-glibc-hwcaps-prepend-cache test documents a non-desired
aspect of the current cache implementation: If the cache selects a DSO
that does not exist on disk, _dl_map_object falls back to open_path,
which may or may not find an alternative implementation. This is an
existing limitation that also applies to the legacy hwcaps processing
for ld.so.cache.

This simplifies the string table construction in elf/cache.c
because there is no more need to keep track of offsets explicitly;
the string table implementation does this internally.
This change slightly reduces the size of the cache on disk. The
file format does not change as a result. The strings are
null-terminated, without explicit length, so tail merging is
transparent to readers.

This will be used in ldconfig to reduce the ld.so.cache size slightly.
Tail merging is an optimization where a pointer points into another
string if the first string is a suffix of the second string.
The hash function FNV-1a was chosen because it is simple and achieves
good dispersion even for short strings (so that the hash table bucket
count can be a power of two). It is clearly superior to the hsearch
hash and the ELF hash in this regard.
The hash table uses chaining for collision resolution.

This hacks non-power-set processing into _dl_important_hwcaps.
Once the legacy hwcaps handling goes away, the subdirectory
handling needs to be reworked, but it is premature to do this
while both approaches are still supported.
ld.so supports two new arguments, --glibc-hwcaps-prepend and
--glibc-hwcaps-mask. Each accepts a colon-separated list of
glibc-hwcaps subdirectory names. The prepend option adds additional
subdirectories that are searched first, in the specified order. The
mask option restricts the automatically selected subdirectories to
those listed in the option argument. For example, on systems where
/usr/lib64 is on the library search path,
--glibc-hwcaps-prepend=valgrind:debug causes the dynamic loader to
search the directories /usr/lib64/glibc-hwcaps/valgrind and
/usr/lib64/glibc-hwcaps/debug just before /usr/lib64 is searched.

We need NO_RTLD_HIDDEN because of the need for PLT calls in ld.so.
See Roland's comment in
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15605
"in the Hurd it's crucial that calls like __mmap be the libc ones
instead of the rtld-local ones after the bootstrap phase, when the
dynamic linker is being used for dlopen and the like."
We used to just avoid all hidden use in the rtld ; this commit switches to
keeping only those that should use PLT calls, i.e. essentially those defined in
sysdeps/mach/hurd/dl-sysdep.c:
__assert_fail
__assert_perror_fail
__*stat64
_exit
This fixes a few startup issues, notably the call to __tunable_get_val that is
made before PLTs are set up.

The elf/elf.h header is shared, verbatim, by the elfutils project.
However, elfutils can be used on systems with libcs other than glibc,
making the presence of __BEGIN_DECLS, __END_DECLS and <features.h> in
the file something that downstream distros may have to add patches for.
Furthermore, this file doesn't declare anything with language linkage,
so `extern "C" {}` blocks aren't necessary; it also doesn't have any
conditional definitions based on feature test macros, making inclusion
of features.h unnecessary.

The SXID_* tunable properties only influence processes that are
AT_SECURE, so make that a bit more explicit in the documentation and
comment.
Revisiting the code after a few years I managed to confuse myself, so
I imagine there could be others who may have incorrectly assumed like
I did that the SXID_ERASE tunables are not inherited by children of
non-AT_SECURE processes.
