we don't actually support building asm source files as thumb1, but
it's possible that the condition __ARM_ARCH>=5 would be false on old
compilers that did not define __ARM_ARCH at all. avoiding that would
require enumerating all of the possible __ARM_ARCH_*__ macros for
testing.
as noted in commit 05870abeaac0588fb9115cfd11f96880a0af2108, mov lr,pc
is not valid for saving a return address when in thumb mode. since
this code is a hot path (dynamic TLS access), don't do the out-of-line
bl->bx chaining to save the return value; instead, use the fact that
this file is preprocessed asm to add the missing thumb bit with an add
in place of the mov.
the change here does not affect builds for ISA levels new enough to
have a thread pointer read instruction, or for armv5 and later as long
as the compiler properly defines __ARM_ARCH, or for any build as arm
(not thumb) code. it's likely that it makes no difference whatsoever
to any present-day practical build environments, but nonetheless now
it's safe.
as an alternative, we could just assume __thumb__ implies availability
of blx since we don't support building asm source files as thumb1. I
didn't do that in order to avoid having a wrong assumption here if
that ever changes.

as noted in commit 05870abeaac0588fb9115cfd11f96880a0af2108, mov lr,pc
is not a valid method for saving the return address in code that might
be built as thumb.
this one is unlikely to matter, since any ISA level that has thumb2
should also have native implementations of atomics that don't involve
kuser_helper, and the affected code is only used on very old kernels
to begin with.
|
|
mov lr,pc is not a valid way to save the return address in thumb mode
since it omits the thumb bit. use a chain of bl and bx to emulate blx.
this could be avoided by converting to a .S file with preprocessor
conditions to use blx if available, but the time cost here is
dominated by the syscall anyway.
while making this change, also remove the remnants of support for
pre-bx ISA levels. commit 9f290a49bf9ee247d540d3c83875288a7991699c
removed the hack from the parent code paths, but left the unnecessary
code in the child. keeping it would require rewriting two code paths
rather than one, and is useless for reasons described in that commit.

previously, when pthread_create failed due to inability to set
explicit scheduling according to the requested attributes, the nascent
thread was detached and made responsible for its own cleanup via the
standard pthread_exit code path. this left it consuming resources
potentially well after pthread_create returned, in a way that the
application could not see or mitigate, and unnecessarily exposed its
existence to the rest of the implementation via the global thread
list.
instead, attempt explicit scheduling early and reuse the failure path
for __clone failure if it fails. the nascent thread's exit futex is
not needed for unlocking the thread list, since the thread calling
pthread_create holds the thread list lock the whole time, so it can be
repurposed to ensure the thread has finished exiting. no pthread_exit
is needed, and freeing the stack, if needed, can happen just as it
would if __clone failed.
|
|
if setting scheduling properties succeeds, the new thread may end up
with lower priority than the caller, and may be unable to continue
running due to another intermediate-priority thread. this produces a
priority inversion situation for the thread calling pthread_create,
since it cannot return until the new thread reports success.
originally, the parent was responsible for setting the new thread's
priority; commits b8742f32602add243ee2ce74d804015463726899 and
40bae2d32fd6f3ffea437fa745ad38a1fe77b27e changed it as part of
trimming down the pthread structure. since then, commit
04335d9260c076cf4d9264bd93dd3b06c237a639 partly reversed the changes,
but did not switch responsibilities back. do that now.

commit 8f11e6127fe93093f81a52b15bb1537edc3fc8af wrongly documented
that all changes to libc.threads_minus_1 were guarded by the thread
list lock, but the decrement for failed SYS_clone took place after the
thread list lock was released.

commit 030e52639248ac8417a4934298caa78c21a228d1 added optreset, a BSD
extension to getopt duplicating the functionality (also an extension)
of setting optind to 0, but failed to provide a public declaration for
it. according to the BSD documentation and headers, the application is
not supposed to need to provide its own declaration.
|
|
these are presently extensions, thus named with _np to match glibc and
other implementations that provide them; however they are likely to be
standardized in the future without the _np suffix as a result of
Austin Group issue 1208. if so, both names will be kept as aliases.

commit 9b14ad541068d4f7d0be9bcd1ff4c70090d868d3 introduced this
namespace violation.

commit 7590203c486d9002522019045d34ee3dee0a66f5 omitted static here.

R_PPC_UADDR32 (R_PPC64_UADDR64) has the same meaning as R_PPC_ADDR32
(R_PPC64_ADDR64), except that its address need not be aligned. For
powerpc64, BFD ld(1) will automatically convert between ADDR<->UADDR
relocations when the address is/isn't at its native alignment. This
will happen if, for example, there is a pointer in a packed struct.
gold and lld do not currently generate R_PPC64_UADDR64, but pass
through misaligned R_PPC64_ADDR64 relocations from object files,
possibly relaxing them to misaligned R_PPC64_RELATIVE. In both cases
(relaxed or not) this violates the PSABI, which defines the relevant
field type as "a 64-bit field occupying 8 bytes, the alignment of
which is 8 bytes unless otherwise specified."
All three linkers violate the PSABI on 32-bit powerpc, where the only
difference is that the field is 32 bits wide, aligned to 4 bytes.
Currently musl fails to load executables linked by BFD ld containing
R_PPC64_UADDR64, with the error "unsupported relocation type 43".
This change provides compatibility with BFD ld on powerpc64, and any
static linker on either architecture that starts following the PSABI
more closely.

This function is a GNU extension introduced in glibc 2.17.
|
|
POSIX allows a null pointer, in which case the function only checks
the validity of the clock id argument.
|
|
at the point of this check, the pointer has already been dereferenced.
clock_settime is not defined for null pointer arguments.
|
|
somewhat analogous to commit d0b547dfb5f7678cab6bc39dd736ed6454357ca4,
but here the omission of the null timeout check was in the time64
syscall code path. this code is not yet used except on x32.
|
|
these accept the netbsd/openbsd message catalog file format,
consisting of a sorted list of set headers and a sorted list of
message headers for each set, admitting trivial binary search for
lookups.
the gnu format was not chosen because it's unusably bad. it does not
admit efficient (log time or better) lookups; rather, it requires
linear search or hash table lookups, and the hash function is awful:
it's literally set_id*msg_id.
|
|
commit 722a1ae3351a03ab25010dbebd492eced664853b inadvertently passed a
copy of {s,us} to the syscall even if the timeout argument tv was
null, thereby causing immediate timeout (polling) in place of
unlimited timeout. only archs using SYS_select were affected.
|
|
when the pattern ended with one or more literal path components, or
when the GLOB_MARK flag was passed to request that glob flag directory
results and the type obtained by readdir was unknown or inconclusive
(symlink), the stat function was called to evaluate existence and/or
determine type. however, stat fails with ENOENT for broken symlinks,
and this caused the match to be omitted from the results.
instead, use stat only for the unknown/inconclusive cases with
GLOB_MARK, and otherwise, or if stat fails, use lstat existence still
needs to be determined. this minimizes the number of costly syscalls,
performing both only in the case where GLOB_MARK is in use and there
is a final literal path component which is a broken symlink.
based on/simplified from patch by James Y Knight.

The only reason we needed to preserve the link register was because we
were using a branch-link instruction to branch to __cp_cancel.
Replacing this with a branch means we can avoid the save/restore as
the link register is no longer modified.
|
|
|
|
otherwise alarm will break on 32-bit archs when time_t is changed to
64-bit. a second itimerval object is introduced for retrieving the old
value, since the setitimer function has restrict-qualified arguments.

commit f3ed8bfe8a82af1870ddc8696ed4cc1d5aa6b441 inadvertently removed

commit 31c5fb80b9eae86f801be4f46025bc6532a554c5 introduced underflow
code paths for the i386 math asm, along with checks on the fpu status
word to skip the underflow-generation instructions if the underflow
flag was already raised. unfortunately, at least one such path, in
log1p, returned with 2 items on the x87 stack rather than just 1 item
for the return value. this is a violation of the ABI's calling
convention, and could cause subsequent floating point code to produce
NANs due to x87 stack overflow. if floating point results are used in
flow control, this can lead to runaway wrong code execution.
rather than reviewing each "underflow already raised" code path for
correctness, remove them all. they're likely slower than just
performing the underflow code unconditionally, and significantly more
complex.
all of this code should be ripped out and replaced by C source files
with inline asm. doing so would preclude this kind of error by having
the compiler perform all x87 stack register allocation and stack
manipulation, and would produce comparable or better code. however
such a change is a much larger project.

commit 72f50245d018af0c31b38dec83c557a4e5dd1ea8 broke this by creating
a code path where r is uninitialized.
|
|
this fixes a major upcoming performance regression introduced by
commit 72f50245d018af0c31b38dec83c557a4e5dd1ea8, whereby 32-bit archs
would lose vdso clock_gettime after switching to 64-bit time_t, unless
the kernel supports time64 and provides a time64 version of the vdso
function. this would incur not just one but two syscalls: first, the
failed time64 syscall, then the fallback time32 one.
overflow of the 32-bit result is detected and triggers a revert to
syscalls. normally, on a system that's not Y2038-ready, this would
still overflow, but if the process has been migrated to a
time64-capable kernel or if the kernel has been hot-patched to add
time64 syscalls, it may conceivably work.
|
|
per policy, define the feature test macro to get declarations for the
pthread_tryjoin_np and pthread_timedjoin_np functions. in the past
this has been only for checking; with 32-bit archs getting 64-bit
time_t it will also be necessary for symbols to get redirected
correctly.
|
|
the time64 syscall has to be used if time_t is 64-bit, since there's
no way of knowing before making a syscall whether the result will fit
in 32 bits, and the 32-bit syscalls do not report overflow as an
error.
on 64-bit archs, there is no change to the code after preprocessing.
on current 32-bit archs, the result is now read from the kernel
through long[2] array, then copied into the timespec, to remove the
assumption that time_t is the same as long.
vdso clock_gettime is still used in place of a syscall if available.
32-bit archs with 64-bit time_t must use the time64 version of the
vdso function; if it's not available, performance will significantly
suffer. support for both vdso functions could be added, but would
break the ability to move a long-lived process from a pre-time64
kernel to one that can outlast Y2038 with checkpoint/resume, at least
without added hacks to identify that the 32-bit function is no longer
usable and stop using it (e.g. by seeing negative tv_sec). this
possibility may be explored in future work on the function.
|
|
the 64-bit/time64 version of the syscall is not API-compatible with
the userspace timex structure definition; fields specified as long
have type long long. so when using the time64 syscall, we have to
convert the entire structure. this was always the case for x32 as
well, but went unnoticed, meaning that clock_adjtime just passed junk
to the kernel on x32. it should be fixed now.
for the fallback case, we avoid encoding any assumptions about the new
location of the time member or naming of the legacy slots by accessing
them through a union of the kernel type and the new userspace type.
the only assumption is that the non-time members live at the same
offsets as in the (non-time64, long-based) kernel timex struct. this
property saves us from having to convert the whole thing, and avoids a
lot of additional work in compat shims.
the new code is statically unreachable for now except on x32, where it
fixes major brokenness. it is permanently unreachable on 64-bit.
|
|
without this, the SIOCGSTAMP and SIOCGSTAMPNS ioctl commands, for
obtaining timestamps, would stop working on pre-5.1 kernels after
time_t is switched to 64-bit and their values are changed to the new
time64 versions.
new code is written such that it's statically unreachable on 64-bit
archs, and on existing 32-bit archs until the macro values are changed
to activate 64-bit time_t.
|
|
without this, the SO_RCVTIMEO and SO_SNDTIMEO socket options would
stop working on pre-5.1 kernels after time_t is switched to 64-bit and
their values are changed to the new time64 versions.
new code is written such that it's statically unreachable on 64-bit
archs, and on existing 32-bit archs until the macro values are changed

|
|
the __socketcall and __socketcall_cp macros are remnants from a really
old version of the syscall-mechanism infrastructure, and don't follow
the pattern that the "__" version of the macro returns the raw negated
error number rather than setting errno and returning -1.
for time64 purposes, some socket syscalls will need to operate on the
error value rather than returning immediately, so fix this up so they
can use it.
|
|
being "ctl" functions that take command numbers, these will be handled
like ioctl/sockopt/etc., using new command numbers for the time64
variants with an "IPC_TIME64" bit added to their values. to obtain
such a reserved bit, we reuse the IPC_64 bit, 0x100, which served only
as part of the libc-to-kernel interface, not as a public interface of
the libc functions.
using new command numbers avoids the need for compat shims (in ABIs
doing time64 through symbol redirection and compat shims) and, by
virtue of having a fixed time64 bit for all commands, we can ensure
that libc can perform the appropriate translations, even if the
application is using new commands from a newer version of the libc
headers than the libc available at runtime.
for the vast majority of 32-bit archs, the kernel {sem,shm,msq}id64_ds
definitions left padding space intended for expanding their time_t
fields to 64 bits in-place, and it would have been really nice to be
able to do time64 support that way. however the padding was almost
always in little-endian order (except on powerpc, and for msqid_ds
only on mips, where it matched the arch's byte order), and more
importantly, the alignment was overlooked. in semid_ds and msqid_ds,
the time_t members were not suitably aligned to be expanded to 64-bit,
due to the ipc_perm header consisting of 9 32-bit words -- except on
powerpc where ipc_perm contains an extra padding word. in shmid_ds,
the time_t members were suitably aligned, except that mips
(accidentally?) omitted the padding for them alltogether.
as a result, we're stuck with adding new time_t fields on the end of
the structures, and assembling the 32-bit lo/hi parts (or 16-bit hi
parts, for mips shmid_ds, which lacked sufficient reserved space for
full 32-bit hi parts) to fill them in.
all of the functional changes here are conditional on the IPC_TIME64
macro having a nonzero definition, which will only happen when
IPC_STAT is redefined for 32-bit archs, and on time_t being larger
than long, so for now the new code is all dead code.
|
|
due to the variadic signature, semctl needs to be made aware of any
new commands that take arguments. this was overlooked when commit
af55070eae5438476f921d827b7ae49e8141c3fe added SEM_STAT_ANY.
|
|
the definition of the IPC_64 macro controls the interface between libc
and the kernel through syscalls; it's not a public API. the meaning is
rather obscure. long ago, Linux's sysvipc *id_ds structures used
16-bit uids/gids and wrong types for a few other fields. this was in
the libc5 era, before glibc. the IPC_64 flag (64 is a misnomer; it's
more like 32) tells the kernel to use the modern[-ish] versions of the
structures.
the definition of IPC_64 has nothing to do with whether the arch is
32- or 64-bit. rather, due to either historical accident or
intentional obnoxiousness, the kernel only accepts and masks off the
0x100 IPC_64 flag conditional on CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_IPC_PARSE_VERSION,
i.e. for archs that want to provide, or that accidentally provided,
both. for archs which don't define this option, no masking is
performed and commands with the 0x100 bit set will fail as invalid. so
ultimately, the definition is just a matter of matching an arbitrary
switch defined per-arch in the kernel.
|
|
major changes are made alongside adding time64 syscall support to
account for issues found during research. select historically accepts
non-normalized (tv_usec not restricted to less than 1000000) timeouts,
and the kernel normalizes them, but the normalization code is buggy
and subject to integer overflows. since normalization is needed anyway
when using SYS_pselect6 or SYS_pselect6_time64 as the backend, simply
do it up-front to eliminate both code path complexity and the
possibility of kernel bugs.
as a side effect, select no longer updates the caller's timeout
timeval with the remaining time. previously, archs that used
SYS_select updated it and archs that used SYS_pselect6 didn't. this
change may turn out to be controversial and may need revisiting, but
in any case the old behavior was not strictly conforming.
POSIX allows modification of the timeout "upon successful completion",
but the Linux syscall modifies it upon unsuccessful completion (EINTR)
as well (and presumably each time the syscall stops and restarts
before it's known whether completion will be successful). it's
possible that this language does not reflect the actual intent of the
standard, since other historical implementations probably behaved like
Linux, but that should be clarified if there's a desire to bring the
old behavior back. regardless, programs that are depending on this are
not correct and are already broken on some archs we support.
|
|
the time64 syscall is used only if the timeout does not fit in 32
bits. after preprocessing, the code is unchanged on 64-bit archs. for
32-bit archs, the timeout now goes through an intermediate copy,
meaning that the caller does not get back the updated timeout. this is
based on my reading of the documentation, which does not document the
updating as a contract you can rely on, and mentions that the whole
recvmmsg timeout mechanism is buggy and unlikely to be useful. if it
turns out that there's interest in making the remaining time
officially available to callers, such functionality could be added
back later.
|
|
these functions have no new time64 syscall, so the existence of a
time64 syscall cannot be used as the condition for the new code.
instead, assume the syscall takes timevals as longs, which is true
everywhere but x32, and interface with the kernel through long[4]
objects.
rather than adding new hacks to special-case x32 here, just add
x32-specific source files since a trivial syscall wrapper suffices
there.
the new code paths added in this commit are statically unreachable on
all current archs, but will become reachable when 32-bit archs get
64-bit time_t.
|
|
the changes here are semantically and structurally identical to those
made to timer_settime and timer_gettime for time64 support.
|
|
as with clock_getres, the time64 syscall for this is not necessary or
useful, this time since scheduling timeslices are not on the order 68
years. if there's a 32-bit syscall, use it and expand the result into
timespec; otherwise there is only one syscall and it does the right
thing to store to timespec directly.
on 64-bit archs, there is no change to the code after preprocessing.
|
|
the time64 syscall for this is not necessary or useful, since clock
resolution is generally better than 68-year granularity. if there's a
32-bit syscall, use it and expand the result into timespec; otherwise
there is only one syscall and it does the right thing to store to
timespec directly.
on 64-bit archs, there is no change to the code after preprocessing.
|

the time64 syscall has to be used if time_t is 64-bit, since there's
no way of knowing before making a syscall whether the result will fit
in 32 bits, and the 32-bit syscalls do not report overflow as an
error.

on current 32-bit archs, the result is now read from the kernel
through long[4] array, then copied into the timespec, to remove the
assumption that time_t is the same as long.
|
|
the x32 syscall interfaces treat timespec's tv_nsec member as 64-bit
despite the API type being long and long being 32-bit in the ABI. this
is no problem for syscalls that store timespecs to userspace as
results, but caused uninitialized padding to be misinterpreted as the
high bits in syscalls that take timespecs as input.
since the beginning of the port, we've dealt with this situation with
hacks in syscall_arch.h, and injected between __syscall_cp_c and
__syscall_cp_asm, to special-case the syscall numbers that involve
timespecs as inputs and copy them to a form suitable to pass to the
kernel.
commit 40aa18d55ab763e69ad16d0cf1cebea708ffde47 set the stage for
removal of these hacks by letting us treat the "normal" x32 syscalls
dealing with timespec as if they're x32's "time64" syscalls,
effectively making x32 ax "time64-only 32-bit arch" like riscv32 will
be when it's added. since then, all users of syscalls that x32's
syscall_arch.h had hacks for have been updated to use time64 syscalls,
so the hacks can be removed.
there are still at least a few other timespec-related syscalls broken
on x32, which were overlooked when the x32 hacks were done or added
later. these include at least recvmmsg, adjtimex/clock_adjtime, and
timerfd_settime, and they will be fixed independently later on.
|
|
time64 syscall is used only if it's the only one defined for the arch,
or if either of the requested times does not fit in 32 bits. care is
taken to normalize the inputs to account for UTIME_NOW or UTIME_OMIT
in tv_nsec, in which case tv_sec should be ignored. this is needed not
only to avoid spurious time64 syscalls that might waste time failing
with ENOSYS, but also to accurately decide whether fallback is
possible.
if the requested time cannot be represented, the function fails with
ENOTSUP, defined in general as "The implementation does not support
the requested feature or value". neither the time64 syscall, nor this
error, can happen on current 32-bit archs where time_t is a 32-bit
type, and both are statically unreachable.
on 64-bit archs, there are only superficial changes to the
SYS_futimesat fallback path, which has been modified to pass long[4]
instead of struct timeval[2] to the kernel, making it suitable for use
on 32-bit archs even once time_t is changed to 64-bit. for 32-bit
archs, the call to SYS_utimensat has also been changed to copy the
timespecs through an array of long[4] rather than passing the
timespec[2] in-place.

|
time64 syscall is used only if it's the only one defined for the arch,
or if the requested time does not fit in 32 bits. on current 32-bit
archs where time_t is a 32-bit type, this makes it statically
unreachable.
if the time64 syscall is needed because the requested time does not
fit in 32 bits, we define this as an error ENOTSUP, for "The
implementation does not support the requested feature or value".
on 64-bit archs, there is no change to the code after preprocessing.
on current 32-bit archs, the time is moved through an intermediate

time64 syscall is used only if it's the only one defined for the arch,
if either component of the itimerspec does not fit in 32 bits, or if
time_t is 64-bit and the caller requested the old value, in which case
there's a possibility that the old value might not fit in 32 bits. on
current 32-bit archs where time_t is a 32-bit type, this makes it
statically unreachable.

time64 syscall is used only if it's the only one defined for the arch,
or if the requested timeout length does not fit in 32 bits. on current
32-bit archs where time_t is a 32-bit type, this makes it statically
unreachable.
on 64-bit archs, there are only superficial changes to the code after
preprocessing. both before and after these changes, these functions
copied their timeout arguments to avoid letting the kernel clobber the
caller's copies. now, the copying also serves to change the type from
userspace timespec to a pair of longs, which makes a difference only
in the 32-bit fallback case, not on 64-bit.
|
|
thanks to the original factorization using the __timedwait function,
there are no FUTEX_WAIT calls anywhere else, giving us a single point
of change to make nearly all the timed thread primitives time64-ready.
the one exception is the FUTEX_LOCK_PI command for PI mutex timedlock.
I haven't tried to make these two points share code, since they have
different fallbacks (no non-private fallback needed for PI since PI
was added later) and FUTEX_LOCK_PI isn't a cancellation point (thus
allowing the whole code path to inline into pthread_mutex_timedlock).
as for other changes in this series, the time64 syscall is used only
if it's the only one defined for the arch, or if the requested timeout
does not fit in 32 bits. on current 32-bit archs where time_t is a
32-bit type, this makes it statically unreachable.
on 64-bit archs, there are only superficial changes to the code after
preprocessing. on current 32-bit archs, the time is passed via an
intermediate copy to remove the assumption that time_t is a 32-bit
type.

to avoid duplicating SYS_ipc/SYS_semtimedop choice logic, the code for
32-bit archs "falls through" after updating the timeout argument ts to
point to a [compound literal] array of longs. in preparation for
"time64-only" 32-bit archs, an extra case is added for neither SYS_ipc
nor the non-time64 SYS_semtimedop existing; the ENOSYS failure path
here should never be reachable, and is added just in case a compiler
can't see that it's not reachable, to avoid spurious static analysis
complaints.

time64 syscall is used only if it's the only one defined for the arch,
or if the requested timeout length does not fit in 32 bits. on current
32-bit archs where time_t is a 32-bit type, this makes it statically
unreachable.
on 64-bit archs, there are only superficial changes to the code after
preprocessing. on current 32-bit archs, the timeout is passed via an
intermediate copy to remove the assumption that time_t is a 32-bit
type.
