2018-10-24Y2038: add _TIME_BITS supportaaribaud/y2038Albert ARIBAUD (3ADEV)1-0/+28
This makes all previously defined Y2038-proof API types, functions and implementations the default when _TIME_BITS==64 and __WORDSIZE==32 (so that 64-bit architectures are unaffected). Note: it is assumed that the API is consistent, i.e. for each API type which is enabled here, all API functions which depend on this type are enabled and mapped to Y2038-proof implementations.
2018-10-17[manual] Job control is no longer optional.Zack Weinberg2-29/+11
Job control was made mandatory in POSIX.1-2001: compare <http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7990989775/xsh/unistd.h.html> with <http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/basedefs/unistd.h.html>. Seventeen years later, we need not devote an entire manual @node to warning people that this was once an optional POSIX feature. * manual/job.texi (Job Control is Optional): Remove node, as job control has not been optional in quite some time. (Job Control): Mention briefly that systems older than POSIX.1-2001 might not support job control. * manual/conf.texi (_POSIX_JOB_CONTROL): Will always be defined on systems conforming to POSIX.1-2001.

2018-08-13Update install.texi documentation of uses of Perl and Python.Joseph Myers1-37/+32
The install.texi documentation of uses of Perl and Python is substantially out of date. The description of Perl is "to test the installation" (which I interpret as referring to test-installation.pl), but it's used for more tests than that, and to build the manual, and to regenerate one file in the source tree. The description of Python is only for pretty-printer tests, but it's used for other tests / benchmarks as well (and for other internal uses such as updating Unicode data, for which we already require Python 3, but I think install.texi only needs to describe uses from the main glibc Makefiles). This patch updates the descriptions of what those tools are used for. The Python information (and information about other tools for testing pretty printers) was awkwardly in the middle of the general description of building and testing glibc, rather than with the rest of information about tools used in glibc build and test; this patch moves the information about those tools into the main list. Tested with regeneration of INSTALL as well as "make info" and "make pdf". * manual/install.texi (Configuring and compiling): Do not list tools used for testing pretty printers here. (Tools for Compilation): List Python, PExpect and GDB here. Update descriptions of uses of Perl and Python. * INSTALL: Regenerate.

2018-06-29New configure option --disable-crypt.Zack Weinberg1-0/+11
Some Linux distributions are experimenting with a new, separately maintained and hopefully more agile implementation of the crypt API. To facilitate this, add a configure option which disables glibc's embedded libcrypt. When this option is given, libcrypt.* and crypt.h will not be built nor installed.
2018-06-29manual: Revise crypt.texi.Zack Weinberg11-197/+351
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.
2018-06-29manual: Reorganize crypt.texi.Zack Weinberg2-119/+73
In preparation for a major revision of the documentation for crypt(_r), getentropy, and getrandom, reorganize crypt.texi. This patch does not change any text; it only deletes and moves text. The description of 'getpass' moves to terminal.texi, since all it does is read a password from the controlling terminal with echo disabled. The "Legal Problems" section of crypt.texi is dropped, and the introductory text is shifted down to the "Encrypting Passwords" section; the next patch will add some new introductory text. Also, it is no longer true that crypt.texi's top @node needs to have no pointers. That was a vestige of crypt/ being an add-on. (makeinfo itself doesn't need @node pointers anymore, but the scripts that assemble the libc manual's topmost node rely on each chapter-level node having them.)
2018-06-29Disallow use of DES encryption functions in new programs.Zack Weinberg3-242/+43
The functions encrypt, setkey, encrypt_r, setkey_r, cbc_crypt, ecb_crypt, and des_setparity should not be used in new programs, because they use the DES block cipher, which is unacceptably weak by modern standards. Demote all of them to compatibility symbols, and remove their prototypes from installed headers. cbc_crypt, ecb_crypt, and des_setparity were already compat symbols when glibc was configured with --disable-obsolete-rpc. POSIX requires encrypt and setkey to be available when _XOPEN_CRYPT is defined, so this change also removes the definition of X_OPEN_CRYPT from <unistd.h>. The entire "DES Encryption" section is dropped from the manual, as is the mention of AUTH_DES and FIPS 140-2 in the introduction to crypt.texi. The documentation of 'memfrob' cross-referenced the DES Encryption section, which is replaced by a hyperlink to libgcrypt, and while I was in there I spruced up the actual documentation of 'memfrob' and 'strfry' a little. It's still fairly jokey, because those functions _are_ jokes, but they do also have real use cases, so people trying to use them for real should have all the information they need. DES-based authentication for Sun RPC is also insecure and should be deprecated or even removed, but maybe that can be left as TI-RPC's problem.

2018-06-26Fix Linux fcntl OFD locks for non-LFS architectures (BZ#20251)Adhemerval Zanella1-6/+7
This patch fixes the OFD ("file private") locks for architectures that support non-LFS flock definition (__USE_FILE_OFFSET64 not defined). The issue in this case is both F_OFD_{GETLK,SETLK,SETLKW} and F_{SET,GET}L{W}K64 expects a flock64 argument and when using old F_OFD_* flags with a non LFS flock argument the kernel might interpret the underlying data wrongly. Kernel idea originally was to avoid using such flags in non-LFS syscall, but since GLIBC uses fcntl with LFS semantic as default it is possible to provide the functionality and avoid the bogus struct kernel passing by adjusting the struct manually for the required flags. The idea follows other LFS interfaces that provide two symbols: 1. A new LFS fcntl64 is added on default ABI with the usual macros to select it for FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64. 2. The Linux non-LFS fcntl use a stack allocated struct flock64 for F_OFD_{GETLK,SETLK,SETLKW} copy the results on the user provided struct. 3. Keep a compat symbol with old broken semantic for architectures that do not define __OFF_T_MATCHES_OFF64_T. So for architectures which defines __USE_FILE_OFFSET64, fcntl64 will aliased to fcntl and no adjustment would be required. So to actually use F_OFD_* with LFS support the source must be built with LFS support (_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64). Also F_OFD_SETLKW command is handled a cancellation point, as for F_SETLKW{64}. Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.

This patch adds the narrowing multiply functions from TS 18661-1 to glibc's libm: fmul, fmull, dmull, f32mulf64, f32mulf32x, f32xmulf64 for all configurations; f32mulf64x, f32mulf128, f64mulf64x, f64mulf128, f32xmulf64x, f32xmulf128, f64xmulf128 for configurations with _Float64x and _Float128; __nldbl_dmull for ldbl-opt. The changes are mostly essentially the same as for the narrowing add functions, so the description of those generally applies to this patch as well. f32xmulf64 for i386 cannot use precision control as used for add and subtract, because that would result in double rounding for subnormal results, so that uses round-to-odd with long double intermediate result instead.

2018-04-30 Raymond Nicholson <rain1@airmail.cc> * manual/startup.texi (Aborting a Program): Remove inappropriate joke. This complies with the decision of the project leader and primary and ultimate maintainer, who partially delegated maintainership to myself and others under certain constraints. This is also in line with the community-agreed procedures. It is obvious that we didn't have consensus on a decision to install that patch, since both sides are still arguing over it. As for the decision to reverse the deletion, if we even need one to counter a move that did not have consensus, although nobody else offered to install the reversal and restore the status prior to the fait accompli, and some explicitly refused to do so themselves, nobody objected when I offered to do so. Therefore, by the same reasoning that led to the mistaken installation of the patch, and after a much longer wait for objections, I understand there is consensus on my reverting it.

2018-04-27Remove tilegx port.Joseph Myers1-1/+2
Since tile support has been removed from the Linux kernel for 4.17, this patch removes the (unmaintained) port to tilegx from glibc (the tilepro support having been previously removed). This reflects the general principle that a glibc port needs upstream support for the architecture in all the components it build-depends on (so binutils, GCC and the Linux kernel, for the normal case of a port supporting the Linux kernel but no other OS), in order to be maintainable. Apart from removal of sysdeps/tile and sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tile, there are updates to various comments referencing tile for which removal of those references seemed appropriate. The configuration is removed from README and from build-many-glibcs.py. contrib.texi keeps mention of removed contributions, but I updated Chris Metcalf's entry to reflect that he also contributed the non-removed support for the generic Linux kernel syscall interface. __ASSUME_FADVISE64_64_NO_ALIGN support is removed, as it was only used by tile. * sysdeps/tile: Remove. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tile: Likewise. * README (tilegx-*-linux-gnu): Remove from list of supported configurations. * manual/contrib.texi (Contributors): Mention Chris Metcalf's contribution of support for generic Linux kernel syscall interface. * scripts/build-many-glibcs.py (Context.add_all_configs): Remove tilegx configurations.

2018-04-05manual: Various fixes to the mbstouwcs example, and mbrtowc updateFlorian Weimer2-43/+77
The example did not work because the null byte was not converted, and mbrtowc was called with a zero-length input string. This results in a (size_t) -2 return value, so the function always returns NULL. The size computation for the heap allocation of the result was incorrect because it did not deal with integer overflow. Error checking was missing, and the allocated memory was not freed on error paths. All error returns now set errno. (Note that there is an assumption that free does not clobber errno.) The slightly unportable comparision against (size_t) -2 to catch both (size_t) -1 and (size_t) -2 return values is gone as well. A null wide character needs to be stored in the result explicitly, to terminate it. The description in the manual is updated to deal with these finer points. The (size_t) -2 behavior (consuming the input bytes) matches what is specified in ISO C11.

This patch adds the narrowing subtract functions from TS 18661-1 to glibc's libm: fsub, fsubl, dsubl, f32subf64, f32subf32x, f32xsubf64 for all configurations; f32subf64x, f32subf128, f64subf64x, f64subf128, f32xsubf64x, f32xsubf128, f64xsubf128 for configurations with _Float64x and _Float128; __nldbl_dsubl for ldbl-opt.

The description of the interplay between feature test macros and compiler options in the description of _DEFAULT_SOURCE is a little confusing, and dated, so clarify the situation, and don't assume a specific value for _DEFAULT_SOURCE.

2018-02-15Document use of CC and CFLAGS in more detail (bug 20980, bug 21234).Joseph Myers1-7/+18
There are some bug reports from people setting CFLAGS not including a -O option and then being confused when the build fails. This patch addresses this by documenting the proper use of CC and CFLAGS in more detail - saying what options should go where and specifying the requirement to compile with optimization. The previous text incorrectly used @var markup with CC and CFLAGS. The correct markup for environment variables is @env, but it's also the case that passing such variables explicitly on the configure command line is preferred to passing them in the environment, so this patch changes the documentation to describe passing them on the command line (and uses @code). In many cases putting options in the wrong place may in fact work, but I believe what I've specified is the correct rule for which options to put where. [BZ #20980] [BZ #21234] * manual/install.texi (Configuring and compiling): Describe passing CC and CFLAGS on configure command line, not as environment variables. Use @code markup on those variables.

2018-02-12Remove slow paths from powWilco Dijkstra1-16/+0
Remove the slow paths from pow. Like several other double precision math functions, pow is exactly rounded. This is not required from math functions and causes major overheads as it requires multiple fallbacks using higher precision arithmetic if a result is close to 0.5ULP. Ridiculous slowdowns of up to 100000x have been reported when the highest precision path triggers. All GLIBC math tests pass on AArch64 and x64 (with ULP of pow set to 1). The worst case error is ~0.506ULP. A simple test over a few hundred million values shows pow is 10% faster on average. This fixes BZ #13932.

As discussed for the build infrastructure patch, tgmath.h support is deliberately deferred, and FP_FAST_* macros are not applicable without optimized function implementations. Function implementations are added for all relevant pairs of formats (including certain cases of a format and itself where more than one type has that format). The main implementations use round-to-odd, or a trivial computation in the case where both formats are the same or where the wider format is IBM long double (in which case we don't attempt to be correctly rounding). The sysdeps/ieee754/soft-fp implementations use soft-fp, and are used automatically for configurations without exceptions and rounding modes by virtue of existing Implies files. As previously discussed, optimized versions for particular architectures are possible, but not included. i386 gets a special version of f32xaddf64 to avoid problems with double rounding (similar to the existing fdim version), since this function must round just once without an intermediate rounding to long double. (No such special version is needed for any other function, because the nontrivial functions use round-to-odd, which does the intermediate computation with the rounding mode set to round-to-zero, and double rounding is OK except in round-to-nearest mode, so is OK for that intermediate round-to-zero computation.) mul and div will need slightly different special versions for i386 (using round-to-odd on long double instead of precision control) because of the possibility of inexact intermediate results in the subnormal range for double. To reduce duplication among the different function implementations, math-narrow.h gets macros CHECK_NARROW_ADD, NARROW_ADD_ROUND_TO_ODD and NARROW_ADD_TRIVIAL. In the trivial cases and for any architecture-specific optimized implementations, the overhead of the errno setting might be significant, but I think that's best handled through compiler built-in functions rather than providing separate no-errno versions in glibc (and likewise there are no __*_finite entry points for these function provided, __*_finite effectively being no-errno versions at present in most cases). Tested for x86_64 and x86, with both GCC 6 and GCC 7. Tested for mips64 (all three ABIs, both hard and soft float) and powerpc with GCC 7.

2018-02-09manual: Fix Texinfo warnings about improper node names.Rical Jasan3-6/+6
A number of cross-references to the GCC info manual cause Texinfo warnings; e.g.: ./creature.texi:11: warning: @xref node name should not contain `.' This is due to "gcc.info" being used in the INFO-FILE-NAME (fourth) argument. Changing it to "gcc" removes these warnings. (Manually confirmed equivalent behaviour for make info, html, and pdf.) * manual/creature.texi: Convert references to gcc.info to gcc. * manual/stdio.texi: Likewise. * manual/string.texi: Likewise.
2018-02-07Remove slow paths from logWilco Dijkstra1-17/+0
Remove the slow paths from log. Like several other double precision math functions, log is exactly rounded. This is not required from math functions and causes major overheads as it requires multiple fallbacks using higher precision arithmetic if a result is close to 0.5ULP. Ridiculous slowdowns of up to 100000x have been reported when the highest precision path triggers. Interestingly removing the slow paths makes hardly any difference in practice: the worst case error is still ~0.502ULP, and exp(log(x)) shows identical results before/after on many millions of random cases. All GLIBC math tests pass on AArch64 and x64 with no change in ULP error. A simple test over a few hundred million values shows log is now 18% faster on average. * manual/probes.texi (slowlog): Delete documentation of removed probe. (slowlog_inexact): Likewise * sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/e_log.c (__ieee754_log): Remove slow paths. * sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/ulog.h: Remove unused declarations.
