eliminate the awkward startlock mechanism and corresponding fields of
the pthread structure that were only used at startup.
instead of having pthread_create perform the scheduling operations and
having the new thread wait for them to be completed, start the new
thread with a wrapper start function that performs its own scheduling,
sending the result code back via a futex. this way the new thread can
use storage from the calling thread's stack rather than permanent
fields in the pthread structure.
|
|
over time the pthread structure has accumulated a lot of cruft taking
up size. this commit removes unused fields and packs booleans and
other small data more efficiently. changes which would also require
changing code are not included at this time.
non-volatile booleans are packed as unsigned char bitfield members.
the canceldisable and cancelasync fields need volatile qualification
due to how they're accessed from the cancellation signal handler and
cancellable syscalls called from signal handlers. since volatile
bitfield semantics are not clearly defined, discrete char objects are
used instead.
the pid field is completely removed; it has been unused since commit
83dc6eb087633abcf5608ad651d3b525ca2ec35e.
the tid field's type is changed to int because its use is as a value
in futexes, which are defined as plain int. it has no conceptual
relationship to pid_t. also, its position is not ABI.
startlock is reduced to a length-1 array. the second element was
presumably intended as a waiter count, but it was never used and made
no sense, since there is at most one waiter.

previously, some accesses to the detached state (from pthread_join and
pthread_getattr_np) were unsynchronized; they were harmless in
programs with well-defined behavior, but ugly. other accesses (in
pthread_exit and pthread_detach) were synchronized by a poorly named
"exitlock", with an ad-hoc trylock operation on it open-coded in
pthread_detach, whose only purpose was establishing protocol for which
thread is responsible for deallocation of detached-thread resources.
instead, use an atomic detach_state and unify it with the futex used
to wait for thread exit. this eliminates 2 members from the pthread
structure, gets rid of the hackish lock usage, and makes rigorous the
trap added in commit 80bf5952551c002cf12d96deb145629765272db0 for
catching attempts to join detached threads. it should also make
attempt to detach an already-detached thread reliably trap.
|
|
if the last thread exited via pthread_exit, the logic that marked it
dead did not account for the possibility of it targeting itself via
atexit handlers. for example, an atexit handler calling
pthread_kill(pthread_self(), SIGKILL) would return success
(previously, ESRCH) rather than causing termination via the signal.
move the release of killlock after the determination is made whether
the exiting thread is the last thread. in the case where it's not,
move the release all the way to the end of the function. this way we
can clear the tid rather than spending storage on a dedicated
dead-flag. clearing the tid is also preferable in that it hardens
against inadvertent use of the value after the thread has terminated
but before it is joined.
|
|
posix documents in the rationale and future directions for
pthread_kill that, since the lifetime of the thread id for a joinable
thread lasts until it is joined, ESRCH is not a correct error for
pthread_kill to produce when the target thread has exited but not yet
been joined, and that conforming applications cannot attempt to detect
this state. future versions of the standard may explicitly require
that ESRCH not be returned for this case.

the tid field in the pthread structure is not volatile, and really
shouldn't be, so as not to limit the compiler's ability to reorder,
merge, or split loads in code paths that may be relevant to
performance (like controlling lock ownership).
however, use of objects which are not volatile or atomic with futex
wait is inherently broken, since the compiler is free to transform a
single load into multiple loads, thereby using a different value for
the controlling expression of the loop and the value passed to the
futex syscall, leading the syscall to block instead of returning.
reportedly glibc's pthread_join was actually affected by an equivalent
issue in glibc on s390.
add a separate, dedicated join_futex object for pthread_join to use.

the static const zero set ended up getting put in bss instead of
rodata, wasting writable memory, and the call to memcmp was
size-inefficient. generally for nonstandard extension functions we try
to avoid poking at any internals directly, but the way the zero set
was setup was arguably already doing so.
|

to support the GNU extension of allocating a buffer for getcwd's
result when a null pointer is passed without incurring a link
dependency on free, we use a PATH_MAX-sized buffer on the stack and
only duplicate it to allocated storage after the operation succeeds.
unfortunately this imposed excessive stack usage on all callers,
including those not making use of the GNU extension.
instead, use a VLA to make stack allocation conditional.

in thumb mode, r7 is the ABI frame pointer register, and unless frame
pointer is disabled, gcc insists on treating it as a fixed register,
refusing to spill it to satisfy constraints. unfortunately, r7 is also
used in the syscall ABI for passing the syscall number.
up til now we just treated this as a requirement to disable frame
pointer when generating code as thumb, but it turns out gcc forcibly
enables frame pointer, and the fixed register constraint that goes
with it, for functions which contain VLAs. this produces an
unacceptable arch-specific constraint that (non-arm-specific) source
files making syscalls cannot use VLAs.
as a workaround, avoid r7 register constraints when producing thumb
code and instead save/restore r7 in a temp register as part of the asm
block. at some point we may want/need to support armv6-m/thumb1, so
the asm has been tweaked to be thumb1-compatible while also
near-optimal for thumb2: it allows the temp and/or syscall number to
be in high registers (necessary since r0-r5 may all be used for
syscalll args) and in thumb2 mode allows the syscall number to be an
8-bit immediate.

for getopt_long, partial (prefix) matches of long options always begin
with "--" and thus can never be ambiguous with a short option. for
getopt_long_only, though, a single-character option can match both a
short option and as a prefix for a long option. in this case, we
wrongly interpreted it as a prefix for the long option.
introduce a new pass, only in long-only mode, to check the prefix
match against short options before accepting it. the only reason
there's a slightly nontrivial loop being introduced rather than strchr
is that our getopt already supports multibyte short options, and
getopt_long_long should handle them consistently. a temp buffer and
strstr could have been used, but the code to set it up would be just
as large as what's introduced here and it would unnecessarily pull in
relatively large code for strstr.

commit 618b18c78e33acfe54a4434e91aa57b8e171df89 removed the previous
detection and hardening since it was incorrect. commit
72141795d4edd17f88da192447395a48444afa10 already handled all that
remained for hardening the static-linked case. in the dynamic-linked
case, have the dynamic linker check whether malloc was replaced and
make that information available.
with these changes, the properties documented in commit
c9f415d7ea2dace5bf77f6518b6afc36bb7a5732 are restored: if calloc is
not provided, it will behave as malloc+memset, and any of the
memalign-family functions not provided will fail with ENOMEM.
|
|
this change serves multiple purposes:
1. it ensures that static linking of memalign-family functions will
pull in the system malloc implementation, thereby causing link errors
if an attempt is made to link the system memalign functions with a
replacement malloc (incomplete allocator replacement).
2. it eliminates calls to free that are unpaired with allocations,
which are confusing when setting breakpoints or tracing execution.
as a bonus, making __bin_chunk external may discourage aggressive and
unnecessary inlining of it.
|
|
the generated code should be mostly unchanged, except for explicit use
of C_INUSE in place of copying the low bits from existing chunk
headers/footers.
these changes also remove mild UB due to dubious arithmetic on
pointers into imaginary size_t[] arrays.

commit c9f415d7ea2dace5bf77f6518b6afc36bb7a5732 included checks to
make calloc fallback to memset if used with a replaced malloc that
didn't also replace calloc, and the memalign family fail if free has
been replaced. however, the checks gave false positives for
replacement whenever malloc or free resolved to a PLT entry in the
main program.
for now, disable the checks so as not to leave libc in a broken state.
this means that the properties documented in the above commit are no
longer satisfied; failure to replace calloc and the memalign family
along with malloc is unsafe if they are ever called.
the calloc checks were correct but useless for static linking. in both
cases (simple or full malloc), calloc and malloc are in a source file
together, so replacement of one but not the other would give linking
errors. the memalign-family check was useful for static linking, but
broken for dynamic as described above, and can be replaced with a
better link-time check.

ARMv6 cores with support for Thumb2 can take advantage of the "ldrex"
and "strex" based implementations of a_ll and a_sc.

__ARM_ARCH_6ZK__ is a gcc specific historical typo which may not be
defined by other compilers.
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2015-07/msg02237.html
To avoid unexpected results when building for ARMv6KZ with clang, the
correct form of the macro (ie 6KZ) needs to be tested. The incorrect
form of the macro (ie 6ZK) still needs to be tested for compatibility
with pre-2015 versions of gcc.

Provide an ARM specific a_ctz_32 helper function for architecture
versions for which it can be implemented efficiently via the "rbit"
instruction (ie all Thumb-2 capable versions of ARM v6 and above).
|
|
Update atomic.h to provide a_ctz_l in all cases (atomic_arch.h should
now only provide a_ctz_32 and/or a_ctz_64).
The generic version of a_ctz_32 now takes advantage of a_clz_32 if
available and the generic a_ctz_64 now makes use of a_ctz_32.

bring these functions up to date with the current idioms we use/prefer
in fmemopen and fopencookie.
|
|
rather than manually performing pointer arithmetic to carve multiple
objects out of one allocation, use a containing struct that
encompasses them all.
|
|
assign entire struct rather than member-at-a-time. don't repeat buffer
sizes; always use sizeof to ensure consistency.
|

replacement is subject to conditions on the replacement functions.
they may only call functions which are async-signal-safe, as specified
either by POSIX or as an implementation-defined extension. if any
allocator functions are replaced, at least malloc, realloc, and free
must be provided. if calloc is not provided, it will behave as
malloc+memset. any of the memalign-family functions not provided will
fail with ENOMEM.
in order to implement the above properties, calloc and __memalign
check that they are using their own malloc or free, respectively.
choice to check malloc or free is based on considerations of
supporting __simple_malloc. in order to make this work, calloc is
split into separate versions for __simple_malloc and full malloc;
commit ba819787ee93ceae94efd274f7849e317c1bff58 already did most of
the split anyway, and completing it saves an extra call frame.
previously, use of -Bsymbolic-functions made dynamic interposition
impossible. now, we are using an explicit dynamic-list, so add
allocator functions to the list. most are not referenced anyway, but
all are added for completeness.

instead of using a waiters count, add a bit to the lock field
indicating that the lock may have waiters. threads which obtain the
lock after contending for it will perform a potentially-spurious wake
when they release the lock.

commit e3bc22f1eff87b8f029a6ab31f1a269d69e4b053 removed all references

the existing laddr function for fdpic cannot translate ELF virtual
addresses outside of the LOAD segments to runtime addresses because
the fdpic loadmap only covers the logically-mapped part. however the
whole point of reclaim_gaps is to recover the slack space up to the
page boundaries, so it needs to work with such addresses.
add a new laddr_pg function that accepts any address in the page range
for the LOAD segment by expanding the loadmap records out to page
boundaries. only use the new version for reclaim_gaps, so as not to
impact performance of other address lookups.
also, only use laddr_pg for the start address of a gap; the end
address lies one byte beyond the end, potentially in a different page
where it would get mapped differently. instead of mapping end, apply
the length (end-start) to the mapped value of start.
|
|
|
|
Split 'free' into unmap_chunk and bin_chunk, use the latter to introduce
__malloc_donate and use it in reclaim_gaps instead of calling 'free'.
|
|
Fix an instance where realloc code would overallocate by OVERHEAD bytes
amount. Manually arrange for reuse of memcpy-free-return exit sequence.

we have always bound symbols at libc.so link time rather than runtime
to minimize startup-time relocations and overhead of calls through the
PLT, and possibly also to preclude interposition that would not work
correctly anyway if allowed. historically, binding at link-time was
also necessary for the dynamic linker to work, but the dynamic linker
bootstrap overhaul in commit f3ddd173806fd5c60b3f034528ca24542aecc5b9
made it unnecessary.
our use of -Bsymbolic-functions, rather than -Bsymbolic, was chosen
because the latter is incompatible with public global data; it makes
it incompatible with copy relocations in the main program. however,
not all global data needs to be public. by using --dynamic-list
instead with an explicit list, we can reduce the number of symbolic
relocations left for runtime.
this change will also allow us to permit interposition of specific
functions (e.g. the allocator) if/when we want to, by adding them to
the dynamic list.

the Linux SYS_nice syscall is unusable because it does not return the
newly set priority. always use SYS_setpriority. also avoid overflows
in addition of inc by handling large inc values directly without
examining the old nice value.
|

Implementation of __malloc0 in malloc.c takes care to preserve zero
pages by overwriting only non-zero data. However, malloc must have
already modified auxiliary heap data just before and beyond the
allocated region, so we know that edge pages need not be preserved.
For allocations smaller than one page, pass them immediately to memset.
Otherwise, use memset to handle partial pages at the head and tail of
the allocation, and scan complete pages in the interior. Optimize the
scanning loop by processing 16 bytes per iteration and handling rest of
page via memset as soon as a non-zero byte is found.

the catan implementation from OpenBSD includes a FIXME-annotated
"overflow" branch that produces a meaningless and incorrect
large-magnitude result. it was reachable via three paths,
corresponding to gotos removed by this commit, in order:
1. pure imaginary argument with imaginary component greater than 1 in
magnitude. this case does not seem at all exceptional and is
handled (at least with the quality currently expected from our
complex math functions) by the existing non-exceptional code path.
2. arguments on the unit circle, including the pure-real argument 1.0.
these are not exceptional except for ±i, which should produce
results with infinite imaginary component and which lead to
computation of atan2(±0,0) in the existing non-exceptional code
path. such calls to atan2() however are well-defined by POSIX.
3. the specific argument +i. this route should be unreachable due to
the above (2), but subtle rounding effects might have made it
possible in rare cases. continuing on the non-exceptional code path
in this case would lead to computing the (real) log of an infinite
argument, then producing a NAN when multiplying it by I.
for now, remove the exceptional code paths entirely. replace the
multiplication by I with construction of a complex number using the
CMPLX macro so that the NAN issue (3) prevented cannot arise.
with these changes, catan should give reasonably correct results for
real arguments, and should no longer give completely-wrong results for
pure-imaginary arguments outside the interval (-i,+i).
|
|
the factor of -i noted in the comment at the top of casin.c was
omitted from the actual code, yielding a result rotated 90 degrees and
propagating into errors in other functions defined in terms of casin.
implement multiplication by -i as a rotation of the real and imaginary
parts of the result, rather than by actual multiplication, since the
latter cannot be optimized without knowledge that the operand is
finite. here, the rotation is the actual intent, anyway.

Commit 8a6bd7307da3fc4d08dd6a9277b611ccb4971354 added support for
padding specifier extensions to strftime, but did not modify wcsftime.
In the process, it added a parameter to __strftime_fmt_1 in strftime.c,
but failed to update the prototype in wcsftime.c. This was found by
compiling musl with LTO:
src/time/wcsftime.c:7:13: warning: type of '__strftime_fmt_1' does \
not match original declaration [-Wlto-type-mismatch]
Fix the prototype of __strftime_fmt_1 in wcsftime.c, and generate the
'pad' argument the same way as it is done in strftime.

it was reported by Erik Bosman that poll fails without setting revents
when the nfds argument exceeds the current value for RLIMIT_NOFILE,
causing the subsequent open calls to be bypassed. if the rlimit is
either 1 or 2, this leaves fd 0 and 1 potentially closed but openable
when the application code is reached.
based on a brief reading of the poll syscall documentation and code,
it may be possible for poll to fail under other attacker-controlled
conditions as well. if it turns out these are reasonable conditions
that may happen in the real world, we may have to go back and
implement fallbacks to probe each fd individually if poll fails, but
for now, keep things simple and treat all poll failures as fatal.

if double precision r=x*y+z is not a half way case between two single
precision floats or it is an exact result then fmaf returns (float)r.
however the exactness check was wrong when |x*y| < |z| and could cause
incorrectly rounded result in nearest rounding mode when r is a half
way case.
fmaf(-0x1.26524ep-54, -0x1.cb7868p+11, 0x1.d10f5ep-29)
was incorrectly rounded up to 0x1.d117ap-29 instead of 0x1.d1179ep-29.
(exact result is 0x1.d1179efffffffecp-29, r is 0x1.d1179fp-29)

commit d93c0740d86aaf7043e79b942a6c0b3f576af4c8 added use of feature
test macros without including features.h, causing a definition that
should be exposed in the default profile, TSVTX, to appear only when
_XOPEN_SOURCE or higher is explicitly defined.
|

previously, MEMOPS_SRCS failed to include arch-specific replacement
files for memcpy, etc., omitting CFLAGS_MEMOPS and thereby potentially
causing build failure if an arch provided C (rather than asm)
replacements for these files.
instead of trying to explicitly include all the files that might have
arch replacements, which is prone to human error, extract final names
to be used out of $(LIBC_OBJS), where the rules for arch replacements
have already been applied. do the same for NOSSP_OBJS, using CRT_OBJS
and LDSO_OBJS rather than repeating ourselves with $(wildcard...) and
explicit pathnames again.
|
|
the makefile logic for these files was wrong in the out-of-tree case,
but it likely only affected the "all" level of stack protector.
|
|
standing alone, both the signed and int keywords identify the same
type, a (signed) int. however the C language has an exception where,
when the lone keyword int is used to declare a bitfield, it's
implementation-defined whether the bitfield is signed or unsigned. C11
footnote 125 extends this implementation-definedness to typedefs, and
DR#315 extends it to other integer types (for which support with
bitfields is implementation-defined).
while reasonable ABIs (all the ones we support) define bitfields as
signed by default, GCC and compatible compilers offer an option
-funsigned-bitfields to change the default. while any signed types
defined without explicit use of the signed keyword are affected, the
stdint.h types, especially intNN_t, have a natural use in bitfields.
ensure that bitfields defined with these types always have the correct
signedness regardless of compiler & flags used.

the output delay features (NL*, CR*, TAB*, BS*, and VT*) are
XSI-shaded. VT* is in the V* namespace reservation but the rest need
to be suppressed in base POSIX namespace.
unfortunately this change introduces feature test macro checks into
another bits header. at some point these checks should be simplified
by having features.h handle the "FTM X implies Y" relationships.
|
|
this must have been taken from POSIX without realizing that it was
meaningless. the resolution to Austin Group issue #844 removed it from
the standard.
|
|
the F_* macros associated with the lockf function are XSI-shaded (like
the lockf function itself) and should only be exposed when the
function is.
|
|
TSVTX is XSI-shaded.
|
|
PAGE_SIZE, NZERO, and NL_LANGMAX are XSI-shaded.
