14 dayself: Merge __dl_libc_freemem into __rtld_libc_freeresFlorian Weimer1-1/+0
The functions serve very similar purposes. The advantage of __rtld_libc_freeres is that it is located within ld.so, so it is more natural to poke at link map internals there. This slightly regresses cleanup capabilities for statically linked binaries. If that becomes a problem, we should start calling __rtld_libc_freeres from __libc_freeres (perhaps after renaming it).

2025-01-24Revert "stdlib: Support malloc-managed environ arrays for compatibility"Florian Weimer1-3/+0
This reverts commit b62759db04b8ed7f829c06f1d7c3b8fb70616493. Reason for revert: Incompatible with “env -i” and coreutils (bug 32588). Reviewed-by: H.J. Lu <hjl.tools@gmail.com>
2025-01-23stdlib: Support malloc-managed environ arrays for compatibilityFlorian Weimer1-0/+3
Some applications set environ to a heap-allocated pointer, call setenv (expecting it to call realloc), free environ, and then restore the original environ pointer. This breaks after commit 7a61e7f557a97ab597d6fca5e2d1f13f65685c61 ("stdlib: Make getenv thread-safe in more cases") because after the setenv call, the environ pointer does not point to the start of a heap allocation. Instead, setenv creates a separate allocation and changes environ to point into that. This means that the free call in the application results in heap corruption. The interim approach was more compatible with other libcs because it does not assume that the incoming environ pointer is allocated as if by malloc (if it was written by the application). However, it seems to be more important to stay compatible with previous glibc version: assume the incoming pointer is heap allocated, and preserve this property after setenv calls.

2025-01-07include/string.h: Also redirect calls if not inlined in libpthreadSamuel Thibault1-1/+1
htl's pt-alloc.c calls __mempcpy, which is #defined to __builtin_mempcpy, but which does not happen to get inlined (the size is dynamic), and then gcc emits a reference to mempcpy, thus violating symbol exposition standard. We thus also have to redirect such references to __mempcpy too.
2025-01-03Redirect mempcpy and stpcpy only in libc.aH.J. Lu1-1/+1
The mempcpy and stpcpy redirections to __mempcpy and __stpcpy were added by commit 939da41143341bbcdd3dd50ee7b57776603da260 Author: Joseph Myers <joseph@codesourcery.com> Date: Wed Nov 12 22:36:34 2014 +0000 Fix stpcpy / mempcpy namespace (bug 17573). to fix the namespace bug since __mempcpy and __stpcpy were defined as macros in <bits/string2.h>. These macros call __builtin_mempcpy and __builtin_stpcpy which may end up calling the C functions mempcpy and stpcpy. In libc.so, libc_hidden_builtin_proto ensures that calls to mempcpy and stpcpy are in turn mapped to call __GI_mempcpy and __GI_stpcpy. The redirections were applied outside of libc.so, including libc.a, to map mempcpy and stpcpy to __mempcpy and __stpcpy.

2024-11-04Add feature test macro _ISOC2Y_SOURCELenard Mollenkopf1-5/+18
This patch starts preparation for C2Y support in glibc headers by adding a feature test macro _ISOC2Y_SOURCE and corresponding __GLIBC_USE (ISOC2Y). (I mostly copied the work of Joseph Myers for C2X). As with other such macros, C2Y features are also enabled by compiling for a standard newer than C23, or by using _GNU_SOURCE. This patch does not itself enable anything new in the headers for C2Y; that is to be done in followup patches. (For example an implementation of WG14 N3349.) Once C2Y becomes an actual standard we'll presumably move to using the actual year in the feature test macro and __GLIBC_USE, with some period when both macro spellings are accepted, as was done with _ISOC2X_SOURCE.

2024-10-08stdlib: Make abort/_Exit AS-safe (BZ 26275)Adhemerval Zanella2-0/+10
The recursive lock used on abort does not synchronize with a new process creation (either by fork-like interfaces or posix_spawn ones), nor it is reinitialized after fork(). Also, the SIGABRT unblock before raise() shows another race condition, where a fork or posix_spawn() call by another thread, just after the recursive lock release and before the SIGABRT signal, might create programs with a non-expected signal mask. With the default option (without POSIX_SPAWN_SETSIGDEF), the process can see SIG_DFL for SIGABRT, where it should be SIG_IGN. To fix the AS-safe, raise() does not change the process signal mask, and an AS-safe lock is used if a SIGABRT is installed or the process is blocked or ignored. With the signal mask change removal, there is no need to use a recursive loc. The lock is also taken on both _Fork() and posix_spawn(), to avoid the spawn process to see the abort handler as SIG_DFL. A read-write lock is used to avoid serialize _Fork and posix_spawn execution. Both sigaction (SIGABRT) and abort() requires to lock as writer (since both change the disposition). The fallback is also simplified: there is no need to use a loop of ABORT_INSTRUCTION after _exit() (if the syscall does not terminate the process, the system is broken). The proposed fix changes how setjmp works on a SIGABRT handler, where glibc does not save the signal mask. So usage like the below will now always abort. static volatile int chk_fail_ok; static jmp_buf chk_fail_buf; static void handler (int sig) { if (chk_fail_ok) { chk_fail_ok = 0; longjmp (chk_fail_buf, 1); } else _exit (127); } [...] signal (SIGABRT, handler); [....] chk_fail_ok = 1; if (! setjmp (chk_fail_buf)) { // Something that can calls abort, like a failed fortify function. chk_fail_ok = 0; printf ("FAIL\n"); } Such cases will need to use sigsetjmp instead. The _dl_start_profile calls sigaction through _profil, and to avoid pulling abort() on loader the call is replaced with __libc_sigaction. Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and aarch64-linux-gnu.

2024-08-05elf: Avoid re-initializing already allocated TLS in dlopen (bug 31717)Florian Weimer1-0/+1
The old code used l_init_called as an indicator for whether TLS initialization was complete. However, it is possible that TLS for an object is initialized, written to, and then dlopen for this object is called again, and l_init_called is not true at this point. Previously, this resulted in TLS being initialized twice, discarding any interim writes (technically introducing a use-after-free bug even). This commit introduces an explicit per-object flag, l_tls_in_slotinfo. It indicates whether _dl_add_to_slotinfo has been called for this object. This flag is used to avoid double-initialization of TLS. In update_tls_slotinfo, the first_static_tls micro-optimization is removed because preserving the initalization flag for subsequent use by the second loop for static TLS is a bit complicated, and another per-object flag does not seem to be worth it. Furthermore, the l_init_called flag is dropped from the second loop (for static TLS initialization) because l_need_tls_init on its own prevents double-initialization. The remaining l_init_called usage in resize_scopes and update_scopes is just an optimization due to the use of scope_has_map, so it is not changed in this commit. The isupper check ensures that libc.so.6 is TLS is not reverted. Such a revert happens if l_need_tls_init is not cleared in _dl_allocate_tls_init for the main_thread case, now that l_init_called is not checked anymore in update_tls_slotinfo in elf/dl-open.c.

2024-03-01riscv: Enable multi-arg ifunc resolversEvan Green1-11/+17
RISC-V is apparently the first architecture to pass more than one argument to ifunc resolvers. The helper macros in libc-symbols.h, __ifunc_resolver(), __ifunc(), and __ifunc_hidden(), are incompatible with this. These macros have an "arg" (non-final) parameter that represents the parameter signature of the ifunc resolver. The result is an inability to pass the required comma through in a single preprocessor argument. Rearrange the __ifunc_resolver() macro to be variadic, and pass the types as those variable parameters. Move the guts of __ifunc() and __ifunc_hidden() into new macros, __ifunc_args(), and __ifunc_args_hidden(), that pass the variable arguments down through to __ifunc_resolver(). Then redefine __ifunc() and __ifunc_hidden(), which are used in a bunch of places, to simply shuffle the arguments down into __ifunc_args[_hidden]. Finally, define a riscv-ifunc.h header, which provides convenience macros to those looking to write ifunc selectors that use both arguments.

2024-01-03Implement C23 <stdbit.h>Joseph Myers1-0/+1
C23 adds a header <stdbit.h> with various functions and type-generic macros for bit-manipulation of unsigned integers (plus macro defines related to endianness). Implement this header for glibc. The functions have both inline definitions in the header (referenced by macros defined in the header) and copies with external linkage in the library (which are implemented in terms of those macros to avoid duplication). They are documented in the glibc manual. Tests, as well as verifying results for various inputs (of both the macros and the out-of-line functions), verify the types of those results (which showed up a bug in an earlier version with the type-generic macro stdc_has_single_bit wrongly returning a promoted type), that the macros can be used at top level in a source file (so don't use ({})), that they evaluate their arguments exactly once, and that the macros for the type-specific functions have the expected implicit conversions to the relevant argument type. Jakub previously referred to -Wconversion warnings in type-generic macros, so I've included a test with -Wconversion (but the only warnings I saw and fixed from that test were actually in inline functions in the <stdbit.h> header - not anything coming from use of the type-generic macros themselves). This implementation of the type-generic macros does not handle unsigned __int128, or unsigned _BitInt types with a width other than that of a standard integer type (and C23 doesn't require the header to handle such types either). Support for those types, using the new type-generic built-in functions Jakub's added for GCC 14, can reasonably be added in a followup (along of course with associated tests). This implementation doesn't do anything special to handle C++, or have any tests of functionality in C++ beyond the existing tests that all headers can be compiled in C++ code; it's not clear exactly what form this header should take in C++, but probably not one using macros. DIS ballot comment AT-107 asks for the word "count" to be added to the names of the stdc_leading_zeros, stdc_leading_ones, stdc_trailing_zeros and stdc_trailing_ones functions and macros. I don't think it's likely to be accepted (accepting any technical comments would mean having an FDIS ballot), but if it is accepted at the WG14 meeting (22-26 January in Strasbourg, starting with DIS ballot comment handling) then there would still be time to update glibc for the renaming before the 2.39 release. The new functions and header are placed in the stdlib/ directory in glibc, rather than creating a new toplevel stdbit/ or putting them in string/ alongside ffs. Tested for x86_64 and x86.

2023-10-31stdlib: Remove use of mergesort on qsort (BZ 21719)Adhemerval Zanella1-2/+0
This patch removes the mergesort optimization on qsort implementation and uses the introsort instead. The mergesort implementation has some issues: - It is as-safe only for certain types sizes (if total size is less than 1 KB with large element sizes also forcing memory allocation) which contradicts the function documentation. Although not required by the C standard, it is preferable and doable to have an O(1) space implementation. - The malloc for certain element size and element number adds arbitrary latency (might even be worse if malloc is interposed). - To avoid trigger swap from memory allocation the implementation relies on system information that might be virtualized (for instance VMs with overcommit memory) which might lead to potentially use of swap even if system advertise more memory than actually has. The check also have the downside of issuing syscalls where none is expected (although only once per execution). - The mergesort is suboptimal on an already sorted array (BZ#21719). The introsort implementation is already optimized to use constant extra space (due to the limit of total number of elements from maximum VM size) and thus can be used to avoid the malloc usage issues. Resulting performance is slower due the usage of qsort, specially in the worst-case scenario (partialy or sorted arrays) and due the fact mergesort uses a slight improved swap operations. This change also renders the BZ#21719 fix unrequired (since it is meant to fix the sorted input performance degradation for mergesort).

2023-10-18Revert "elf: Always call destructors in reverse constructor order (bug 30785)"Florian Weimer1-4/+0
This reverts commit 6985865bc3ad5b23147ee73466583dd7fdf65892. Reason for revert: The commit changes the order of ELF destructor calls too much relative to what applications expect or can handle. In particular, during process exit and _dl_fini, after the revert commit, we no longer call the destructors of the main program first; that only happens after some dlopen'ed objects have been destructed. This robs applications of an opportunity to influence destructor order by calling dlclose explicitly from the main program's ELF destructors. A couple of different approaches involving reverse constructor order were tried, and none of them worked really well. It seems we need to keep the dependency sorting in _dl_fini. There is also an ambiguity regarding nested dlopen calls from ELF constructors: Should those destructors run before or after the object that called dlopen? Commit 6985865bc3ad5b2314 used reverse order of the start of ELF constructor calls for destructors, but arguably using completion of constructors is more correct. However, that alone is not sufficient to address application compatibility issues (it does not change _dl_fini ordering at all).

2023-09-08elf: Always call destructors in reverse constructor order (bug 30785)Florian Weimer1-0/+4
The current implementation of dlclose (and process exit) re-sorts the link maps before calling ELF destructors. Destructor order is not the reverse of the constructor order as a result: The second sort takes relocation dependencies into account, and other differences can result from ambiguous inputs, such as cycles. (The force_first handling in _dl_sort_maps is not effective for dlclose.) After the changes in this commit, there is still a required difference due to dlopen/dlclose ordering by the application, but the previous discrepancies went beyond that. A new global (namespace-spanning) list of link maps, _dl_init_called_list, is updated right before ELF constructors are called from _dl_init. In dl_close_worker, the maps variable, an on-stack variable length array, is eliminated. (VLAs are problematic, and dlclose should not call malloc because it cannot readily deal with malloc failure.) Marking still-used objects uses the namespace list directly, with next and next_idx replacing the done_index variable. After marking, _dl_init_called_list is used to call the destructors of now-unused maps in reverse destructor order. These destructors can call dlopen. Previously, new objects do not have l_map_used set. This had to change: There is no copy of the link map list anymore, so processing would cover newly opened (and unmarked) mappings, unloading them. Now, _dl_init (indirectly) sets l_map_used, too. (dlclose is handled by the existing reentrancy guard.) After _dl_init_called_list traversal, two more loops follow. The processing order changes to the original link map order in the namespace. Previously, dependency order was used. The difference should not matter because relocation dependencies could already reorder link maps in the old code. The changes to _dl_fini remove the sorting step and replace it with a traversal of _dl_init_called_list. The l_direct_opencount decrement outside the loader lock is removed because it appears incorrect: the counter manipulation could race with other dynamic loader operations. tst-audit23 needs adjustments to the changes in LA_ACT_DELETE notifications. The new approach for checking la_activity should make it clearer that la_activty calls come in pairs around namespace updates. The dependency sorting test cases need updates because the destructor order is always the opposite order of constructor order, even with relocation dependencies or cycles present. There is a future cleanup opportunity to remove the now-constant force_first and for_fini arguments from the _dl_sort_maps function.

2023-09-05posix: Add pidfd_spawn and pidfd_spawnp (BZ 30349)Adhemerval Zanella Netto1-0/+4
Returning a pidfd allows a process to keep a race-free handle for a child process, otherwise, the caller will need to either use pidfd_open (which still might be subject to TOCTOU) or keep the old racy interface base on pid_t. To correct use pifd_spawn, the kernel must support not only returning the pidfd with clone/clone3 but also waitid (P_PIDFD) (added on Linux 5.4). If kernel does not support the waitid, pidfd return ENOSYS. It avoids the need to racy workarounds, such as reading the procfs fdinfo to get the pid to use along with other wait interfaces. These interfaces are similar to the posix_spawn and posix_spawnp, with the only difference being it returns a process file descriptor (int) instead of a process ID (pid_t). Their prototypes are: int pidfd_spawn (int *restrict pidfd, const char *restrict file, const posix_spawn_file_actions_t *restrict facts, const posix_spawnattr_t *restrict attrp, char *const argv[restrict], char *const envp[restrict]) int pidfd_spawnp (int *restrict pidfd, const char *restrict path, const posix_spawn_file_actions_t *restrict facts, const posix_spawnattr_t *restrict attrp, char *const argv[restrict_arr], char *const envp[restrict_arr]); A new symbol is used instead of a posix_spawn extension to avoid possible issues with language bindings that might track the return argument lifetime. Although on Linux pid_t and int are interchangeable, POSIX only states that pid_t should be a signed integer. Both symbols reuse the posix_spawn posix_spawn_file_actions_t and posix_spawnattr_t, to void rehash posix_spawn API or add a new one. It also means that both interfaces support the same attribute and file actions, and a new flag or file action on posix_spawn is also added automatically for pidfd_spawn. Also, using posix_spawn plumbing allows the reusing of most of the current testing with some changes: - waitid is used instead of waitpid since it is a more generic interface. - tst-posix_spawn-setsid.c is adapted to take into consideration that the caller can check for session id directly. The test now spawns itself and writes the session id as a file instead. - tst-spawn3.c need to know where pidfd_spawn is used so it keeps an extra file description unused.

2023-08-11nscd: Do not rebuild getaddrinfo (bug 30709)Florian Weimer1-4/+0
The nscd daemon caches hosts data from NSS modules verbatim, without filtering protocol families or sorting them (otherwise separate caches would be needed for certain ai_flags combinations). The cache implementation is complete separate from the getaddrinfo code. This means that rebuilding getaddrinfo is not needed. The only function actually used is __bump_nl_timestamp from check_pf.c, and this change moves it into nscd/connections.c. Tested on x86_64-linux-gnu with -fexceptions, built with build-many-glibcs.py. I also backported this patch into a distribution that still supports nscd and verified manually that caching still works. Reviewed-by: Siddhesh Poyarekar <siddhesh@sourceware.org>
