for ordinary ELF with fixed segment displacements, load address
computation is simply adding the base load address. but for FDPIC,
each segment has its own load address, and virtual addresses need to
be adjusted according to the segment they fall in. abstracting this
computation is the first step to making the dynamic linker ready for
FDPIC.
for this first commit, a macro is used rather than a function in order
to facilitate correctness checking. I have verified that the generated
code does not change on my i386 build.

this new generic version of the stage-2 function lookup should work
for any arch where static data is accessible via got-relative or
pc-relative addressing, using approximately the technique described in
the log message for commit 2907afb8dbd4c1d34825c3c9bd2b41564baca210.
since all the mips-like archs that need got slots fo access static
data have already transitioned to the new stage chaining scheme, the
old dynamic symbol lookup code is now removed.
aarch64, arm, and sh have not yet transitioned; with this commit, they
are now using the new generic code.

previously, the call into stage 2 was made by looking up the symbol
name "__dls2" (which was chosen short to be easy to look up) from the
dynamic symbol table. this was no problem for the dynamic linker,
since it always exports all its symbols. in the case of the static pie
entry point, however, the dynamic symbol table does not contain the
necessary symbol unless -rdynamic/-E was used when linking. this
linking requirement is a major obstacle both to practical use of
static-pie as a nommu binary format (since it greatly enlarges the
file) and to upstream toolchain support for static-pie (adding -E to
default linking specs is not reasonable).
this patch replaces the runtime symbolic lookup with a link-time
lookup via an inline asm fragment, which reloc.h is responsible for
providing. in this initial commit, the asm is provided only for i386,
and the old lookup code is left in place as a fallback for archs that
have not yet transitioned.
modifying crt_arch.h to pass the stage-2 function pointer as an
argument was considered as an alternative, but such an approach would
not be compatible with fdpic, where it's impossible to compute
function pointers without already having performed relocations. it was
also deemed desirable to keep crt_arch.h as simple/minimal as
possible.
in principle, archs with pc-relative or got-relative addressing of
static variables could instead load the stage-2 function pointer from
a static volatile object. that does not work for fdpic, and is not
safe against reordering on mips-like archs that use got slots even for
static functions, but it's a valid on i386 and many others, and could
provide a reasonable default implementation in the future.

this attribute was applied to pthread_self and the functions providing
the locations for errno and h_errno as an optimization; however, it is
subtly incorrect. as specified, it means the return value will always
be the same, which is not true; it varies per-thread.
this attribute also implies that the function does not depend on any
state, and that calls to it can safely be reordered across any other
code. however such reordering is unsafe for these functions: they
break when reordered before initialization of the thread pointer. such
breakage was actually observed when compiled by libfirm/cparser.
to some extent the reordering problem could be solved with strong
compiler barriers between the stages of early startup code, but the
specified meaning of of attribute((const)) is sufficiently strong that
a compiler would theoretically be justified inserting gratuitous calls
to attribute((const)) const functions at random locations (e.g. to
save the value in static storage for later use).
this reverts commit cbf35978a9870fb1f5c73a852c986d4fcca6c2d4.

their absence completely breaks format string warnings in programs
with gettext message translations: -Wformat gives no results, and
-Wformat-nonliteral produces spurious warnings.
with gcc, the problem manifests only in standards-conforming profiles;
otherwise gcc sets these attributes by default for the gettext family.
with clang, the problem always manifests; clang has no such defaults.

in analogy with commit a627eb35864d5c29a3c3300dfe83745ab1e7a00f
|
|
with this commit it should be possible to produce a working
static-linked fdpic libc and application binaries for sh.
the changes in reloc.h are largely unused at this point since dynamic
linking is not supported, but the CRTJMP macro is used one place
outside of dynamic linking, in __unmapself.
|
|
this version of the entry point is only suitable for static linking in
ET_EXEC form. neither dynamic linking nor pie is supported yet. at
some point in the future the fdpic and non-fdpic versions of this code
may be unified but for now it's easiest to work with them separately.
|
|
this file is intended to be included by crt_arch.h on fdpic-based
targets and needs to be called from the entry point asm.
|
|
clone calls back to a function pointer provided by the caller, which
will actually be a pointer to a function descriptor on fdpic. the
obvious solution is to have a separate version of clone for fdpic, but
I have taken a simpler approach to go around the problem. instead of
calling the pointed-to function from asm, a direct call is made to an
internal C function which then calls the pointed-to function. this
lets the C compiler generate the appropriate calling convention for an
indirect call with no need for ABI-specific assembly.
|
|
for fdpic support is is essential that the got pointer be saved at a
known, ABI-dictated offset from the frame pointer, since there is no
way to recover it once it's lost.

this error was only found by reading the code, but it seems to have
been causing gcc to produce wrong code in malloc: the same register
was used for the output and the high word of the input. in principle
this could have caused an infinite loop searching for an available
bin, but in practice most x86 models seem to implement the "undefined"
result of the bsf instruction as "unchanged".
|
|
originally, the comment in this code was correct and it would likely
work if the compiler generated a tail call to setjmp. however, commit
583e55122e767b1586286a0d9c35e2a4027998ab redesigned sigsetjmp and
siglongjmp such that the old C implementation (which was not intended
to be used) is not even conceptually correct. remove it in the
interest of avoiding confusion when porting to new archs.

this restores the original behavior prior to the addition of the
byte-based C locale and fixes what is effectively a regression in
musl's property of always providing working UTF-8 support.
commit 1507ebf837334e9e07cfab1ca1c2e88449069a80 introduced the codeset
name "UTF-8-CODE-UNITS" for the byte-based C locale to represent that
the semantic content is UTF-8 but that it is being processed as code
units (bytes) rather than whole multibyte characters. however, many
programs assume that the codeset name is usable with iconv and/or
comes from a set of standard/widely-used names known to the
application. such programs are likely to produce warnings or errors,
run with reduced functionality, or mangle character data when run
explicitly in the C locale.
the standard places basically no requirements for the string returned
by nl_langinfo(CODESET) and how it interacts with other interfaces, so
returning "UTF-8" is permissible. moreover, it seems like the right
thing to do, since the identity of the character encoding as "UTF-8"
is independent of whether it is being processed as bytes of characters
by the standard library functions.

this fixes a bug reported by Nuno Gonçalves. previously, calling
fclose on stdin or stdout resulted in deadlock at exit time, since
__stdio_exit attempts to lock these streams to flush/seek them, and
has no easy way of knowing that they were closed.
conceptually, leaving a FILE stream locked on fclose is valid since,
in the abstract machine, it ceases to exist. but to satisfy the
implementation-internal assumption in __stdio_exit that it can access
these streams unconditionally, we need to unlock them.
it's also necessary that fclose leaves permanent streams in a state
where __stdio_exit will not attempt any further operations on them.
fortunately, the call to fflush already yields this property.

these functions are part of the ARM EABI, meaning compilers may
generate references to them. known versions of gcc do not use them,
but llvm does. they are not provided by libgcc, and the de facto
standard seems to be that libc provides them.

this functionality is affected by GNU make bug #30653, "intermediate
files incorrectly pruned in parallel builds". on affected versions of
make, parallel builds attempt to compile source files before
alltypes.h is generated.
as noted with commit a91ebdcfac6804714a1fe39f4375e2b4ebab085b, which
added the use of .SECONDARY, suppression of removal of "intermediate"
files does not seem to be needed at present. if it is needed in the
future, it should be achievable by explicitly mentioning their names
as targets or prerequisites.
|
|
|
|
at one point, GNU make was removing crt/*.o after producing the copies
in lib/ due to an arcane misfeature for handling "intermediate" files.
the circumstances that caused this are no longer present in our
makefile, but the previous workaround using .PRECIOUS was wrong and
could result in corrupt/partial files being left behind during an
interrupted build. using .SECONDARY is the correct, documented fix
that will prevent deletion of "intermediate" files from ever
resurfacing.

Some functions implemented in asm need to use EBP for purposes other
than acting as a frame pointer. (Notably, it is used for the 6th
argument to syscalls with 6 arguments.) Without frame pointers, GDB
can only show backtraces if it gets CFI information from a
.debug_frame or .eh_frame ELF section.
Rather than littering our asm with ugly .cfi directives, use an awk
script to insert them in the right places during the build process, so
GDB can keep track of where the current stack frame is relative to the
stack pointer. This means GDB can produce beautiful stack traces at
any given point when single-stepping through asm functions.
Additionally, when registers are saved on the stack and later
overwritten, emit ..cfi directives so GDB will know where they were
saved relative to the stack pointer. This way, when you look back up
the stack from within an asm function, you can still reliably print
the values of local variables in the caller.
If this awk script were to understand every possible wild and crazy
contortion that an asm programmer can do with the stack and registers,
and always emit the exact ..cfi directives needed for GDB to know what
the register values were in the preceding stack frame, it would
necessarily be as complex as a full x86 emulator. That way lies
madness.
Hence, we assume that the stack pointer will _only_ ever be adjusted
using push/pop or else add/sub with a constant. We do not attempt to
detect every possible way that a register value could be saved for
later use, just the simple and common ways.
Thanks to Szabolcs Nagy for suggesting numerous improvements to this
code.

commit 3c43c0761e1725fd5f89a9c028cbf43250abb913 fixed missing
synchronization in the atomic store operation for i386 and x86_64, but
opted to use mfence for the barrier on x86_64 where it's always
available. however, in practice mfence is significantly slower than
the barrier approach used on i386 (a nop-like lock orl operation).
this commit changes x86_64 (and x32) to use the faster barrier.

tm_gmtoff is a nonstandard field, but on historical systems which have
this field, it stores the offset of the local time zone from GMT or
UTC. this is the opposite of the POSIX extern long timezone object and
the offsets used in POSIX-form TZ strings, which represent the offset
from local time to UTC. previously we were storing these negated
offsets in tm_gmtoff too.
programs which only used this field indirectly via strftime were not
affected since strftime performed the negation for presentation.
however, some programs and libraries accesse tm_gmtoff directly and
were obtaining negated time zone offsets.

On 32bit systems long long arguments are passed in a special way
to some syscalls; this accidentally got copied to the AArch64 port.
The following interfaces were broken: fallocate, fanotify, ftruncate,
posix_fadvise, posix_fallocate, pread, pwrite, readahead,
sync_file_range, truncate.

tempnam uses an uninitialized buffer which is filled using memcpy and
__randname. It is therefore necessary to explicitly null-terminate it.

during calls to free, any free chunks adjacent to the chunk being
freed are momentarily held in allocated state for the purpose of
merging, possibly leaving little or no available free memory for other
threads to allocate. under this condition, other threads will attempt
to expand the heap rather than waiting to use memory that will soon be
available. the race window where this happens is normally very small,
but became huge when free chooses to use madvise to release unused
physical memory, causing unbounded heap size growth.
this patch drastically shrinks the race window for unwanted heap
expansion by performing madvise with the bin lock held and marking the
bin non-empty in the binmask before making the expensive madvise
syscall. testing by Timo Teräs has shown this approach to be a
suitable mitigation.
more invasive changes to the synchronization between malloc and free
would be needed to completely eliminate the problem. it's not clear
whether such changes would improve or worsen typical-case performance,
or whether this would be a worthwhile direction to take malloc
development.

despite being strongly ordered, the x86 memory model does not preclude
reordering of loads across earlier stores. while a plain store
suffices as a release barrier, we actually need a full barrier, since
users of a_store subsequently load a waiter count to determine whether
to issue a futex wait, and using a stale count will result in soft
(fail-to-wake) deadlocks. these deadlocks were observed in malloc and
possible with stdio locks and other libc-internal locking.
on i386, an atomic operation on the caller's stack is used as the
barrier rather than performing the store itself using xchg; this
avoids the need to read the cache line on which the store is being
performed. mfence is used on x86_64 where it's always available, and
could be used on i386 with the appropriate cpu model checks if it's
shown to perform better.

The old code accepted atexit handlers after exit, but did not run them
reliably. C11 seems to explicitly allow atexit to fail (and report
such failure) in this case, but this situation can easily come up in
C++ if a destructor has a local static object with a destructor so it
should be handled.
Note that the memory usage can grow linearly with the overall number
of registered atexit handlers instead of with the worst case list
length. (This only matters if atexit handlers keep registering atexit
handlers which should not happen in practice).

when traditional syslogd implementations are restarted, the old server
socket ceases to exist and a new unix socket with the same pathname is
created. when this happens, the default destination address associated
with the client socket via connect is no longer valid, and attempts to
send produce errors. this happens despite the socket being datagram
type, and is in contrast to the behavior that would be seen with an IP
datagram (UDP) socket.
in order to avoid a situation where the application is unable to send
further syslog messages without calling closelog, this patch makes
syslog attempt to reconnect the socket when send returns an error
indicating a lost connection.
additionally, initial failure to connect the socket no longer results
in the socket being closed. this ensures that an application which
calls openlog to reserve the socket file descriptor will not run into
a situation where transient connection failure (e.g. due to syslogd
restart) prevents fd reservation. however, applications which may be
unable to connect the socket later (e.g. due to chroot, restricted
permissions, seccomp, etc.) will still fail to log if the syslog
socket cannot be connected at openlog time or if it has to be
reconnected later.
|
|
being nonstandard, the closest thing to a specification for this
function is its man page, which documents it as returning int. it can
fail with EBADF if the file descriptor passed is invalid.
|
|
due to a reversed pointer difference computation, ns_skiprr always
returned a negative value, which functions using it would interpret as
an error.

musl-clang allows the user to compile musl-powered programs using their
already existent clang install, without the need of a special cross compiler.
it achieves this by wrapping around both the system clang install and the
linker and passing them special flags to re-target musl at runtime.
it does only affect invocations done through the special musl-clang wrapper
script, so that the user setup remains fully intact otherwise.
the clang wrapper consists of the compiler frontend wrapper script,
musl-clang, and the linker wrapper script, ld.musl-clang.
musl-clang makes sure clang invokes ld.musl-clang to link objects; neither
script needs to be in PATH for the wrapper to work.
|
|
the old test was broken in that it would never fail on a toolchains built
without dynamic linking support, leading to the wrapper script possibly being
installed on compilers that do not support it. in addition, the new test is
portable across compilers: the old test only worked on GCC.
the new test works by testing whether the toolchain libc defines __GLIBC__:
most non-musl Linux libc's do define this for compatibility even when they
are not glibc, so this is a safe bet to check for musl. in addition, the
compiler runtime would need to have a somewhat glibc-compatible ABI in the
first place, so any non-glibc compatible libc's compiler runtime might not
work. it is safer to disable these cases by default and have the user enable
the wrappers manually there using --enable-wrapper if they certain it works.
|
|
this overhauls part of the build system in order to support multiple
toolchain wrapper scripts, as opposed to solely the musl-gcc wrapper as
before. it thereby replaces --enable-gcc-wrapper with --enable-wrapper=...,
which has the options 'auto' (the default, detect whether to use wrappers),
'all' (build and install all wrappers), 'no' (don't build any) and finally
the options named after the individual compiler scripts (currently only
'gcc' is available) to build and install only that wrapper.
the old --enable-gcc-wrapper is removed from --help, but still available.
it also modifies the wrappers to use the C compiler specified to the build
system as 'inner' compiler, when applicable. as wrapper detection works by
probing this compiler, it may not work with any other.
|
|
this improves compatibility with the behavior of other systems and
with some applications which set an empty TZ var to disable use of
local time by mktime, etc.
|
|
The callers need to check the value of the pointer anyway, so make
them pass the pointer to gnu_lookup instead of reloading it there.
Reorder gnu_lookup arguments so that always-used ones are listed
first. GCC can choose a calling convention with arguments in registers
(e.g. up to 3 arguments in eax, ecx, edx on x86), but cannot reorder
the arguments for static functions.
