2019-08-29Fix posix/tst-regex by using UTF-8 and own test inputPaul Eggert2-31/+30
Problem reported by Stefan Liebler in: https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2019-08/msg00658.html * posix/tst-regex.c: Convert this file from Latin-1 to UTF-8. (do_test, test_expr): Adjust to the fact that this source file, and the test data in ChangeLog.8, is now UTF-8 instead of Latin-1. * posix/tst-regex.input: Copy from ChangeLog.old/ChangeLog.8, so that it is now UTF-8.
2019-08-28Fix posix/tst-regex by using a dedicated input-file.Stefan Liebler2-1/+12550
The recent commit e6855a3bdfe147c52b29b5e7d70a95a8aa22ece0 changed the encoding of ChangeLog.old/ChangeLog.8 from ISO-8859 to UTF-8. Unfortunately the test posix/tst-regex assumes the former encoding. Furthermore Francesco Potortì is now written with 'ì' instead of 'i`' which would lead to two further matches in the first call to test_expr. This patch just copies the former ChangeLog.8 file to tst-regex.input and adjusts the test in order to use this new input file. ChangeLog: * posix/tst-regex.c (do_test): Use tst-regex.input as input file. * posix/tst-regex.input: New file.

2019-07-10posix: Fix large mmap64 offset for mips64n32 (BZ#24699)Adhemerval Zanella1-4/+5
The fix for BZ#21270 (commit 158d5fa0e19) added a mask to avoid offset larger than 1^44 to be used along __NR_mmap2. However mips64n32 users __NR_mmap, as mips64n64, but still defines off_t as old non-LFS type (other ILP32, such x32, defines off_t being equal to off64_t). This leads to use the same mask meant only for __NR_mmap2 call for __NR_mmap, thus limiting the maximum offset it can use with mmap64. This patch fixes by setting the high mask only for __NR_mmap2 usage. The posix/tst-mmap-offset.c already tests it and also fails for mips64n32. The patch also change the test to check for an arch-specific header that defines the maximum supported offset. Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, and I also tests tst-mmap-offset on qemu simulated mips64 with kernel 3.2.0 kernel for both mips-linux-gnu and mips64-n32-linux-gnu. [BZ #24699] * posix/tst-mmap-offset.c: Mention BZ #24699. (do_test_bz21270): Rename to do_test_large_offset and use mmap64_maximum_offset to check for maximum expected offset value. * sysdeps/generic/mmap_info.h: New file. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mmap_info.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mmap64.c (MMAP_OFF_HIGH_MASK): Define iff __NR_mmap2 is used.
2019-04-30Make mktime etc. compatible with __time64_tPaul Eggert1-3/+6
Keep these functions compatible with Gnulib while adding __time64_t support. The basic idea is to move private API declarations from include/time.h to time/mktime-internal.h, since the former file cannot easily be shared with Gnulib whereas the latter can. Also, do some other minor cleanup while in the neighborhood. * include/time.h: Include stdbool.h, time/mktime-internal.h.

(in_time_t_range): New static function. * posix/bits/types.h (__time64_t) [__TIMESIZE == 64 && !defined __LIBC]: Do not define as a macro in this case, so that portable code is less tempted to use __time64_t. * time/mktime-internal.h: Rewrite so that it does both glibc and Gnulib work. Include time.h if not _LIBC. (mktime_offset_t) [!_LIBC]: Define for gnulib. (__time64_t, __gmtime64_r, __localtime64_r, __mktime64, __timegm64) [!_LIBC || __TIMESIZE == 64]: New macros, mostly moved here from include/time.h. (__gmtime_r, __localtime_r, __mktime_internal) [!_LIBC]: New macros, taken from GNulib. (__mktime_internal): New prototype, moved here from include/time.h. * time/mktime.c (mktime_min, mktime_max, convert_time) (ranged_convert, __mktime_internal, __mktime64): * time/timegm.c (__timegm64): Use __time64_t, not time_t. * time/mktime.c: Stop worrying about whether time_t is floating-point. (__mktime64) [! (_LIBC && __TIMESIZE != 64)]: Rename from mktime. (mktime) [_LIBC && __TIMESIZE != 64]: New function. * time/timegm.c [!_LIBC]: Include libc-config.h, not config.h, for libc_hidden_def. Include errno.h. (__timegm64) [! (_LIBC && __TIMESIZE != 64)]: Rename from timegm. (timegm) [_LIBC && __TIMESIZE != 64]: New function. First cut at publicizing __time64_t
2019-03-14Remove obsolete, never-implemented XSI STREAMS declarationsFlorian Weimer3-1/+109
The stub implementations are turned into compat symbols. Linux actually has two reserved system call numbers (for getpmsg and putpmsg), but these system calls have never been implemented, and there are no plans to implement them, so this patch replaces the wrappers with the generic stubs. According to <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=436349>, the presence of the XSI STREAMS declarations is a minor portability hazard because they are not actually implemented. This commit does not change the TIRPC support code in sunrpc/rpc_svcout.c. It uses additional XTI functionality and therefore never worked with glibc. Reviewed-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com>
2019-03-13Use a proper C tokenizer to implement the obsolete typedefs test.Zack Weinberg2-30/+13
The test for obsolete typedefs in installed headers was implemented using grep, and could therefore get false positives on e.g. “ulong” in a comment. It was also scanning all of the headers included by our headers, and therefore testing headers we don’t control, e.g. Linux kernel headers. This patch splits the obsolete-typedef test from scripts/check-installed-headers.sh to a separate program, scripts/check-obsolete-constructs.py. Being implemented in Python, it is feasible to make it tokenize C accurately enough to avoid false positives on the contents of comments and strings. It also only examines $(headers) in each subdirectory--all the headers we install, but not any external dependencies of those headers. Headers whose installed name starts with finclude/ are ignored, on the assumption that they contain Fortran. It is also feasible to make the new test understand the difference between _defining_ the obsolete typedefs and _using_ the obsolete typedefs, which means posix/{bits,sys}/types.h no longer need to be exempted. This uncovered an actual bug in bits/types.h: __quad_t and __u_quad_t were being used to define __S64_TYPE, __U64_TYPE, __SQUAD_TYPE and __UQUAD_TYPE. These are changed to __int64_t and __uint64_t respectively. This is a safe change, despite the comments in bits/types.h claiming a difference between __quad_t and __int64_t, because those comments are incorrect. In all current ABIs, both __quad_t and __int64_t are ‘long’ when ‘long’ is a 64-bit type, and ‘long long’ when ‘long’ is a 32-bit type, and similarly for __u_quad_t and __uint64_t. (Changing the types to be what the comments say they are would be an ABI break, as it affects C++ name mangling.) This patch includes a minimal change to make the comments not completely wrong. sys/types.h was defining the legacy BSD u_intN_t typedefs using a construct that was not necessarily consistent with how the C99 uintN_t typedefs are defined, and is also too complicated for the new script to understand (it lexes C relatively accurately, but it does not attempt to expand preprocessor macros, nor does it do any actual parsing). This patch cuts all of that out and uses bits/types.h's __uintN_t typedefs to define u_intN_t instead. This is verified to not change the ABI on any supported architecture, via the c++-types test, which means u_intN_t and uintN_t were, in fact, consistent on all supported architectures.

2019-02-22Break some lines before not after operators.Joseph Myers7-38/+38
The GNU Coding Standards specify that line breaks in expressions should go before an operator, not after one. This patch fixes various code to do this. It only changes code that appears to be mostly following GNU style anyway, not files and directories with substantially different formatting. It is not exhaustive even for files using GNU style (for example, changes to sysdeps files are deferred for subsequent cleanups). Some files changed are shared with gnulib, but most are specific to glibc. Changes were made manually, with places to change found by grep (so some cases, e.g. where the operator was followed by a comment at end of line, are particularly liable to have been missed by grep, but I did include cases where the operator was followed by backslash-newline). This patch generally does not attempt to address other coding style issues in the expressions changed (for example, missing spaces before '(', or lack of parentheses to ensure indentation of continuation lines properly reflects operator precedence).

2019-02-12Add fall-through comments.Joseph Myers1-0/+2
This patch adds fall-through comments in some cases where -Wextra produces implicit-fallthrough warnings. The patch is non-exhaustive. Apart from architecture-specific code for non-x86_64 architectures, it does not change sunrpc/xdr.c (legacy code, probably should have such changes, but left to be dealt with separately), or places that already had comments about the fall-through but not matching the form expected by -Wimplicit-fallthrough=3 (the default level with -Wextra; my inclination is to adjust those comments to match rather than downgrading to -Wimplicit-fallthrough=1 to allow any comment), or one place where I thought the implicit fallthrough was not correct and so should be handled separately as a bug fix. I think the key thing to consider in review of this patch is whether the fall-through is indeed intended and correct in each place where such a comment is added.

2019-02-08Provide <bits/unistd_ext.h> as a sysdeps header exclusivelyFlorian Weimer1-21/+0
Non-sysdeps headers cannot be overriden by sysdeps headers across the entire build, so it is necessary to turn such extension headers into sysdeps headers themselves. The approach here follows the existing <bits/shm.h> header (although it uses sysdeps/gnu instead of sysdeps/generic). Fixes commit 1d0fc213824eaa2a8f8c4385daaa698ee8fb7c92 ("Linux: Add gettid system call wrapper [BZ #6399]") and commit 8f89ab216f205c2ffd90d1fc8454efdfc0b01dee ("posix: Fix missing wrapper header for <bits/unistd_ext.h>").

From time to time I get fails in tst-spawn like: tst-spawn.c:111: numeric comparison failure left: 0 (0x0); from: xlseek (fd2, 0, SEEK_CUR) right: 28 (0x1c); from: strlen (fd2string) error: 1 test failures tst-spawn.c:252: numeric comparison failure left: 1 (0x1); from: WEXITSTATUS (status) right: 0 (0x0); from: 0 error: 1 test failures It turned out, that a child process is testing it's open file descriptors with e.g. a sequence of testing the current position, setting the position to zero and reading a specific amount of bytes. Unfortunately starting with commit 2a69f853c03034c2e383e0f9c35b5402ce8b5473 the test is spawning a second child process which is sharing some of the file descriptors. If the test sequence as mentioned above is running in parallel it leads to test failures. As the second call of posix_spawn shall test a NULL pid argument, this patch is just moving the waitpid of the first child before the posix_spawn of the second child. ChangeLog: * posix/tst-spawn do_test(): Move waitpid before posix_spawn.

2019-01-03posix: Clear close-on-exec for posix_spawn adddup2 (BZ#23640)Adhemerval Zanella1-8/+36
Austin Group issue #411 [1] proposes that posix_spawn file action posix_spawn_file_actions_adddup2 resets the close-on-exec when source and destination refer to same file descriptor. It solves the issue on multi-thread applications which uses close-on-exec as default, and want to hand-chose specifically file descriptor to purposefully inherited into a child process. Current approach to achieve this scenario is to use two adddup2 file actions and a temporary file description which do not conflict with any other, coupled with a close file action to avoid leaking the temporary file descriptor. This approach, besides being complex, may fail with EMFILE/ENFILE file descriptor exaustion. This can be more easily accomplished with an in-place removal of FD_CLOEXEC. Although the resulting adddup2 semantic is slight different than dup2 (equal file descriptors should be handled as no-op), the proposed possible solution are either more complex (fcntl action which a limited set of operations) or results in unrequired operations (dup3 which also returns EINVAL for same file descriptor). Checked on aarch64-linux-gnu.

2018-11-01Avoid printf ("%s", NULL) in posix/bug-regex22.c.Joseph Myers1-4/+4
Building posix/bug-regex22.c fails with GCC mainline because of -Wformat-overflow= warnings for NULL arguments to %s formats. This is *not* testing how glibc handles such format arguments; in the context of the messages in question it makes no sense to pass NULL to such a %s format (the code passes s, inside "if (s == NULL)"). So this patch changes the code not to pass such a format argument at all (which means the string passed is constant, so no need to use printf at all - however, there are two separate tests here with different length arguments passed to re_compile_pattern, so it *does* make sense to make the strings used different so that in the event of failure it's clear which one of the tests failed). Tested with build-many-glibcs.py with GCC mainline for aarch64-linux-gnu. * posix/bug-regex22.c (main): Use puts with distinct error messages for unexpected success of re_compile_pattern, not printf with NULL argument to %s.
2018-10-24Y2038: Add 64-bit time for all architecturesAlbert ARIBAUD (3ADEV)1-0/+8
glibc support for 64-bit time_t on 32-bit architectures will involve: - Using 64-bit times inside glibc, with conversions to and from 32-bit times taking place as necessary for interfaces using such times. - Adding 64-bit-time support in the glibc public API. This support should be dynamic, i.e. glibc should provide both 32-bit and 64-bit implementations and let user code choose at compile time whether to use the 32-bit or 64-bit interfaces. This requires a glibc-internal name for a type for times that are always 64-bit. Based on __TIMESIZE, a new macro is defined, __TIME64_T_TYPE, which is always the right __*_T_TYPE to hold a 64-bit-time. __TIME64_T_TYPE equals __TIME_T_TYPE if __TIMESIZE equals 64 and equals __SQUAD_T_TYPE otherwise. __time64_t can then replace uses of internal_time_t. This patch was tested by running 'make check' on branch master then applying this patch and its predecessor and running 'make check' again, and checking that both 'make check' yield identical results. This was done on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu. * bits/time64.h: New file. * include/time.h: Replace internal_time_t with __time64_t. * posix/bits/types (__time64_t): Add. * stdlib/Makefile: Add bits/time64.h to includes. * time/tzfile.c: Replace internal_time_t with __time64_t.

2018-07-25Keep expected behaviour for [a-z] and [A-z] (Bug 23393).Carlos O'Donell2-44/+89
In commit 9479b6d5e08eacce06c6ab60abc9b2f4eb8b71e4 we updated all of the collation data to harmonize with the new version of ISO 14651 which is derived from Unicode 9.0.0. This collation update brought with it some changes to locales which were not desirable by some users, in particular it altered the meaning of the locale-dependent-range regular expression, namely [a-z] and [A-Z], and for en_US it caused uppercase letters to be matched by [a-z] for the first time. The matching of uppercase letters by [a-z] is something which is already known to users of other locales which have this property, but this change could cause significant problems to en_US and other similar locales that had never had this change before. Whether this behaviour is desirable or not is contentious and GNU Awk has this to say on the topic: https://www.gnu.org/software/gawk/manual/html_node/Ranges-and-Locales.html While the POSIX standard also has this further to say: "RE Bracket Expression": http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/xrat/V4_xbd_chap09.html "The current standard leaves unspecified the behavior of a range expression outside the POSIX locale. ... As noted above, efforts were made to resolve the differences, but no solution has been found that would be specific enough to allow for portable software while not invalidating existing implementations." In glibc we implement the requirement of ISO POSIX-2:1993 and use collation element order (CEO) to construct the range expression, the API internally is __collseq_table_lookup(). The fact that we use CEO and also have 4-level weights on each collation rule means that we can in practice reorder the collation rules in iso14651_t1_common (the new data) to provide consistent range expression resolution *and* the weights should maintain the expected total order. Therefore this patch does three things: * Reorder the collation rules for the LATIN script in iso14651_t1_common to deinterlace uppercase and lowercase letters in the collation element orders. * Adds new test data en_US.UTF-8.in for sort-test.sh which exercises strcoll* and strxfrm* and ensures the ISO 14651 collation remains. * Add back tests to tst-fnmatch.input and tst-regexloc.c which exercise that [a-z] does not match A or Z. The reordering of the ISO 14651 data is done in an entirely mechanical fashion using the following program attached to the bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23393#c28 It is up for discussion if the iso14651_t1_common data should be refined further to have 3 very tight collation element ranges that include only a-z, A-Z, and 0-9, which would implement the solution sought after in: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23393#c12 and implemented here: https://www.sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2018-07/msg00854.html No regressions on x86_64. Verified that removal of the iso14651_t1_common change causes tst-fnmatch to regress with: 422: fnmatch ("[a-z]", "A", 0) = 0 (FAIL, expected FNM_NOMATCH) *** ... 425: fnmatch ("[A-Z]", "z", 0) = 0 (FAIL, expected FNM_NOMATCH) ***

2018-07-18Avoid insecure usage of tmpnam in tests.Joseph Myers6-19/+40
Various glibc testcases use tmpnam in ways subject to race conditions (generate a temporary file name, then later open that file without O_EXCL). This patch fixes those tests to use mkstemp - generally a minimal local fix to use mkstemp instead of tmpnam, rather than a larger fix to use other testsuite infrastructure for temporary files. The unchanged use of tmpnam in posix/wordexp-test.c would fail safe in the event of a race (it's generating a name for use with mkdir rather than for a file to be opened for writing).

2018-07-10regexec: Fix off-by-one bug in weight comparison [BZ #23036]Florian Weimer1-23/+20
Each weight is prefixed by its length, and the length does not include itself in the count. This can be seen clearly from the find_idx function in string/strxfrm_l.c, for example. The old code behaved as if the length itself counted, thus comparing an additional byte after the weight, leading to spurious comparison failures and incorrect further partitioning of character equivalence classes.

This patch syncs the regex implementation with gnulib (commit 0ee5212). Only two changes in GLIBC regex testing are required: 1. posix/bug-regex28.c: as previously discussed [1] the change of expected results on the pattern should be safe. 2. posix/PCRE.tests: the ERE (a)|\1 is malformed (in the sense that the \1 doesn't mean anything) and although current GLIBC accepts it has undefined behavior. This patch removes the specific test. This sync contains some patches from thread 'Regex: Make libc regex more usable outside GLIBC.' [2] which have been pushed upstream in gnulib. This patches also fixes some regex issues (BZ #23233, BZ #21163, BZ #18986, BZ #13762) and I did not add testcases for both #23233 and #13762 because I couldn't think a simple way to trigger the expected failure path to trigger them.

2018-06-29manual: Revise crypt.texi.Zack Weinberg1-1/+5
This is a major rewrite of the description of 'crypt', 'getentropy', and 'getrandom'. A few highlights of the content changes: - Throughout the manual, public headers, and user-visible messages, I replaced the term "password" with "passphrase", the term "password database" with "user database", and the term "encrypt(ion)" with "(one-way) hashing" whenever it was applied to passphrases. I didn't bother making this change in internal code or tests. The use of the term "password" in ruserpass.c survives, because that refers to a keyword in netrc files, but it is adjusted to make this clearer. There is a note in crypt.texi explaining that they were traditionally called passwords but single words are not good enough anymore, and a note in users.texi explaining that actual passphrase hashes are found in a "shadow" database nowadays. - There is a new short introduction to the "Cryptographic Functions" section, explaining how we do not intend to be a general-purpose cryptography library, and cautioning that there _are_, or have been, legal restrictions on the use of cryptography in many countries, without getting into any kind of detail that we can't promise to keep up to date. - I added more detail about what a "one-way function" is, and why they are used to obscure passphrases for storage. I removed the paragraph saying that systems not connected to a network need no user authentication, because that's a pretty rare situation nowadays. (It still says "sometimes it is necessary" to authenticate the user, though.) - I added documentation for all of the hash functions that glibc actually supports, but not for the additional hash functions supported by libxcrypt. If we're going to keep this manual section around after the transition is more advanced, it would probably make sense to add them then. - There is much more detailed discussion of how to generate a salt, and the failure behavior for crypt is documented. (Returning an invalid hash on failure is what libxcrypt does; Solar Designer's notes say that this was done "for compatibility with old programs that assume crypt can never fail".) - As far as I can tell, the header 'crypt.h' is entirely a GNU invention, and never existed on any other Unix lineage. The function 'crypt', however, was in Issue 1 of the SVID and is now in the XSI component of POSIX. I tried to make all of the @standards annotations consistent with this, but I'm not sure I got them perfectly right. - The genpass.c example has been improved to use getentropy instead of the current time to generate the salt, and to use a SHA-256 hash instead of MD5. It uses more random bytes than is strictly necessary because I didn't want to complicate the code with proper base64 encoding. - The testpass.c example has three hardwired hashes now, to demonstrate that different one-way functions produce different hashes for the same input. It also demonstrates how DES hashing only pays attention to the first eight characters of the input. - There is new text explaining in more detail how a CSPRNG differs from a regular random number generator, and how getentropy/getrandom are not exactly a CSPRNG. I tried not to make specific falsifiable claims here. I also tried to make the blocking/cancellation/error behavior of both getentropy and getrandom clearer.
