Linux 6.11 has getrandom() in vDSO. It operates on a thread-local opaque
state allocated with mmap using flags specified by the vDSO.
Multiple states are allocated at once, as many as fit into a page, and
these are held in an array of available states to be doled out to each
thread upon first use, and recycled when a thread terminates. As these
states run low, more are allocated.
To make this procedure async-signal-safe, a simple guard is used in the
LSB of the opaque state address, falling back to the syscall if there's
reentrancy contention.
Also, _Fork() is handled by blocking signals on opaque state allocation
(so _Fork() always sees a consistent state even if it interrupts a
getrandom() call) and by iterating over the thread stack cache on
reclaim_stack. Each opaque state will be in the free states list
(grnd_alloc.states) or allocated to a running thread.
The cancellation is handled by always using GRND_NONBLOCK flags while
calling the vDSO, and falling back to the cancellable syscall if the
kernel returns EAGAIN (would block). Since getrandom is not defined by
POSIX and cancellation is supported as an extension, the cancellation is
handled as 'may occur' instead of 'shall occur' [1], meaning that if
vDSO does not block (the expected behavior) getrandom will not act as a
cancellation entrypoint. It avoids a pthread_testcancel call on the fast
path (different than 'shall occur' functions, like sem_wait()).
It is currently enabled for x86_64, which is available in Linux 6.11,
and aarch64, powerpc32, powerpc64, loongarch64, and s390x, which are
available in Linux 6.12.

As for exit, also allows concurrent quick_exit to avoid race
conditions when it is called concurrently. Since it uses the same
internal function as exit, the __exit_lock lock is moved to
__run_exit_handlers. It also solved a potential concurrent when
calling exit and quick_exit concurrently.
The test case 'expected' is expanded to a value larger than the
minimum required by C/POSIX (32 entries) so at_quick_exit() will
require libc to allocate a new block. This makes the test mre likely to
trigger concurrent issues (through free() at __run_exit_handlers)
if quick_exit() interacts with the at_quick_exit list concurrently.
This is also the latest interpretation of the Austin Ticket [1].

Even if C/POSIX standard states that exit is not formally thread-unsafe,
calling it more than once is UB. The glibc already supports
it for the single-thread, and both elf/nodelete2.c and tst-rseq-disable.c
call exit from a DSO destructor (which is called by _dl_fini, registered
at program startup with __cxa_atexit).
However, there are still race issues when it is called more than once
concurrently by multiple threads. A recent Rust PR triggered this
issue [1], which resulted in an Austin Group ask for clarification [2].
Besides it, there is a discussion to make concurrent calling not UB [3],
wtih a defined semantic where any remaining callers block until the first
call to exit has finished (reentrant calls, leaving through longjmp, and
exceptions are still undefined).
For glibc, at least reentrant calls are required to be supported to avoid
changing the current behaviour. This requires locking using a recursive
lock, where any exit called by atexit() handlers resumes at the point of
the current handler (thus avoiding calling the current handle multiple
times).

it supports not just 8/16/32/64-bit unsigned integers, but also 128-bit

And so that the macros don't expand arguments multiple times and can be
evaluated in constant expressions.

The mergesort removal from qsort implementation (commit 03bf8357e8)
had the side-effect of making sorting nonstable. Although neither
POSIX nor C standard specify that qsort should be stable, it seems
that it has become an instance of Hyrum's law where multiple programs
expect it.
Also, the resulting introsort implementation is not faster than
the previous mergesort (which makes the change even less appealing).
This patch restores the previous mergesort implementation, with the
exception of machinery that checks the resulting allocation against
the _SC_PHYS_PAGES (it only adds complexity and the heuristic not
always make sense depending on the system configuration and load).
The alloca usage was replaced with a fixed-size buffer.
For the fallback mechanism, the implementation uses heapsort. It is
simpler than quicksort, and it does not suffer from adversarial
inputs. With memory overcommit, it should be rarely triggered.
The drawback is mergesort requires O(n) extra space, and since it is
allocated with malloc the function is AS-signal-unsafe. It should be
feasible to change it to use mmap, although I am not sure how urgent
it is. The heapsort is also nonstable, so programs that require a
stable sort would still be subject to this latent issue.
The tst-qsort5 is removed since it will not create quicksort adversarial
inputs with the current qsort_r implementation.

C23 adds a header <stdbit.h> with various functions and type-generic
macros for bit-manipulation of unsigned integers (plus macro defines
related to endianness). Implement this header for glibc.
The functions have both inline definitions in the header (referenced
by macros defined in the header) and copies with external linkage in
the library (which are implemented in terms of those macros to avoid
duplication). They are documented in the glibc manual. Tests, as
well as verifying results for various inputs (of both the macros and
the out-of-line functions), verify the types of those results (which
showed up a bug in an earlier version with the type-generic macro
stdc_has_single_bit wrongly returning a promoted type), that the
macros can be used at top level in a source file (so don't use ({})),
that they evaluate their arguments exactly once, and that the macros
for the type-specific functions have the expected implicit conversions
to the relevant argument type.
Jakub previously referred to -Wconversion warnings in type-generic
macros, so I've included a test with -Wconversion (but the only
warnings I saw and fixed from that test were actually in inline
functions in the <stdbit.h> header - not anything coming from use of
the type-generic macros themselves).
This implementation of the type-generic macros does not handle
unsigned __int128, or unsigned _BitInt types with a width other than
that of a standard integer type (and C23 doesn't require the header to
handle such types either). Support for those types, using the new
type-generic built-in functions Jakub's added for GCC 14, can
reasonably be added in a followup (along of course with associated
tests).
This implementation doesn't do anything special to handle C++, or have
any tests of functionality in C++ beyond the existing tests that all
headers can be compiled in C++ code; it's not clear exactly what form
this header should take in C++, but probably not one using macros.
DIS ballot comment AT-107 asks for the word "count" to be added to the
names of the stdc_leading_zeros, stdc_leading_ones,
stdc_trailing_zeros and stdc_trailing_ones functions and macros. I
don't think it's likely to be accepted (accepting any technical
comments would mean having an FDIS ballot), but if it is accepted at
the WG14 meeting (22-26 January in Strasbourg, starting with DIS
ballot comment handling) then there would still be time to update
glibc for the renaming before the 2.39 release.
The new functions and header are placed in the stdlib/ directory in
glibc, rather than creating a new toplevel stdbit/ or putting them in
string/ alongside ffs.

This patch removes the mergesort optimization on qsort implementation
and uses the introsort instead. The mergesort implementation has some
issues:
- It is as-safe only for certain types sizes (if total size is less
than 1 KB with large element sizes also forcing memory allocation)
which contradicts the function documentation. Although not required
by the C standard, it is preferable and doable to have an O(1) space
implementation.
- The malloc for certain element size and element number adds
arbitrary latency (might even be worse if malloc is interposed).
- To avoid trigger swap from memory allocation the implementation
relies on system information that might be virtualized (for instance
VMs with overcommit memory) which might lead to potentially use of
swap even if system advertise more memory than actually has. The
check also have the downside of issuing syscalls where none is
expected (although only once per execution).
- The mergesort is suboptimal on an already sorted array (BZ#21719).
The introsort implementation is already optimized to use constant extra
space (due to the limit of total number of elements from maximum VM
size) and thus can be used to avoid the malloc usage issues.
Resulting performance is slower due the usage of qsort, specially in the
worst-case scenario (partialy or sorted arrays) and due the fact
mergesort uses a slight improved swap operations.
This change also renders the BZ#21719 fix unrequired (since it is meant
to fix the sorted input performance degradation for mergesort). The
manual is also updated to indicate the function is now async-cancel
safe.

C2x adds binary integer constants starting with 0b or 0B, and supports
those constants in strtol-family functions when the base passed is 0
or 2. Implement that strtol support for glibc.
As discussed at
<https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2020-December/120414.html>,
this is incompatible with previous C standard versions, in that such
an input string starting with 0b or 0B was previously required to be
parsed as 0 (with the rest of the string unprocessed). Thus, as
proposed there, this patch adds 20 new __isoc23_* functions with
appropriate header redirection support. This patch does *not* do
anything about scanf %i (which will need 12 new functions per long
double variant, so 12, 24 or 36 depending on the glibc configuration),
instead leaving that for a future patch. The function names would
remain as __isoc23_* even if C2x ends up published in 2024 rather than
2023.
Making this change leads to the question of what should happen to
internal uses of these functions in glibc and its tests. The header
redirection (which applies for _GNU_SOURCE or any other feature test
macros enabling C2x features) has the effect of redirecting internal
uses but without those uses then ending up at a hidden alias (see the
comment in include/stdio.h about interaction with libc_hidden_proto).
It seems desirable for the default for internal uses to be the same
versions used by normal code using _GNU_SOURCE, so rather than doing
anything to disable that redirection, similar macro definitions to
those in include/stdio.h are added to the include/ headers for the new
functions.
Given that the default for uses in glibc is for the redirections to
apply, the next question is whether the C2x semantics are correct for
all those uses. Uses with the base fixed to 10, 16 or any other value
other than 0 or 2 can be ignored. I think this leaves the following
internal uses to consider (an important consideration for review of
this patch will be both whether this list is complete and whether my
conclusions on all entries in it are correct):
benchtests/bench-malloc-simple.c
benchtests/bench-string.h
elf/sotruss-lib.c
math/libm-test-support.c
nptl/perf.c
nscd/nscd_conf.c
nss/nss_files/files-parse.c
posix/tst-fnmatch.c
posix/wordexp.c
resolv/inet_addr.c
rt/tst-mqueue7.c
soft-fp/testit.c
stdlib/fmtmsg.c
support/support_test_main.c
support/test-container.c
sysdeps/pthread/tst-mutex10.c
I think all of these places are OK with the new semantics, except for
resolv/inet_addr.c, where the POSIX semantics of inet_addr do not
allow for binary constants; thus, I changed that file (to use
__strtoul_internal, whose semantics are unchanged) and added a test
for this case. In the case of posix/wordexp.c I think accepting
binary constants is OK since POSIX explicitly allows additional forms
of shell arithmetic expressions, and in stdlib/fmtmsg.c SEV_LEVEL is
not in POSIX so again I think accepting binary constants is OK.
Functions such as __strtol_internal, which are only exported for
compatibility with old binaries from when those were used in inline
functions in headers, have unchanged semantics; the __*_l_internal
versions (purely internal to libc and not exported) have a new
argument to specify whether to accept binary constants.
As well as for the standard functions, the header redirection also
applies to the *_l versions (GNU extensions), and to legacy functions
such as strtoq, to avoid confusing inconsistency (the *q functions
redirect to __isoc23_*ll rather than needing their own __isoc23_*
entry points). For the functions that are only declared with
_GNU_SOURCE, this means the old versions are no longer available for
normal user programs at all. An internal __GLIBC_USE_C2X_STRTOL macro
is used to control the redirections in the headers, and cases in glibc
that wish to avoid the redirections - the function implementations
themselves and the tests of the old versions of the GNU functions -
then undefine and redefine that macro to allow the old versions to be
accessed. (There would of course be greater complexity should we wish
to make any of the old versions into compat symbols / avoid them being
defined at all for new glibc ABIs.)
strtol_l.c has some similarity to strtol.c in gnulib, but has already
diverged some way (and isn't listed at all at
https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/SharedSourceFiles unlike strtoll.c
and strtoul.c); I haven't made any attempts at gnulib compatibility in
the changes to that file.
I note incidentally that inttypes.h and wchar.h are missing the
__nonnull present on declarations of this family of functions in
stdlib.h; I didn't make any changes in that regard for the new
declarations added.
If using -D_FORITFY_SOURCE=3 (in my case, I've patched GCC to add
=3 instead of =2 (we've done =2 for years in Gentoo)), building
glibc tests will fail on testmb like:
```
<command-line>: error: "_FORTIFY_SOURCE" redefined [-Werror]
<built-in>: note: this is the location of the previous definition
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
make[2]: *** [../o-iterator.mk:9: /var/tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.36/work/build-x86-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl/stdlib/testmb.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
```
It's just because we're always setting -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2
rather than unsetting it first. If F_S is already 2, it's harmless,
but if it's another value (say, 1, or 3), the compiler will bawk.
(I'm not aware of a reason this couldn't be tested with =3,
but the toolchain support is limited for that (too new), and we want
to run the tests everywhere possible.)

Rather than buffering 16 MiB of entropy in userspace (by way of
chacha20), simply call getrandom() every time.
This approach is doubtlessly slower, for now, but trying to prematurely
optimize arc4random appears to be leading toward all sorts of nasty
properties and gotchas. Instead, this patch takes a much more
conservative approach. The interface is added as a basic loop wrapper
around getrandom(), and then later, the kernel and libc together can
work together on optimizing that.
This prevents numerous issues in which userspace is unaware of when it
really must throw away its buffer, since we avoid buffering all
together. Future improvements may include userspace learning more from
the kernel about when to do that, which might make these sorts of
chacha20-based optimizations more possible. The current heuristic of 16
MiB is meaningless garbage that doesn't correspond to anything the
kernel might know about. So for now, let's just do something
conservative that we know is correct and won't lead to cryptographic
issues for users of this function.
This patch might be considered along the lines of, "optimization is the
root of all evil," in that the much more complex implementation it
replaces moves too fast without considering security implications,
whereas the incremental approach done here is a much safer way of going
about things. Once this lands, we can take our time in optimizing this
properly using new interplay between the kernel and userspace.
getrandom(0) is used, since that's the one that ensures the bytes
returned are cryptographically secure. But on systems without it, we
fallback to using /dev/urandom. This is unfortunate because it means
opening a file descriptor, but there's not much of a choice. Secondly,
as part of the fallback, in order to get more or less the same
properties of getrandom(0), we poll on /dev/random, and if the poll
succeeds at least once, then we assume the RNG is initialized. This is a
rough approximation, as the ancient "non-blocking pool" initialized
after the "blocking pool", not before, and it may not port back to all
ancient kernels, though it does to all kernels supported by glibc
(≥3.2), so generally it's the best approximation we can do.
The motivation for including arc4random, in the first place, is to have
source-level compatibility with existing code. That means this patch
doesn't attempt to litigate the interface itself. It does, however,
choose a conservative approach for implementing it.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and aarch64-linux-gnu.
The implementation is based on scalar Chacha20 with per-thread cache.
It uses getrandom or /dev/urandom as fallback to get the initial entropy,
and reseeds the internal state on every 16MB of consumed buffer.
To improve performance and lower memory consumption the per-thread cache
is allocated lazily on first arc4random functions call, and if the
memory allocation fails getentropy or /dev/urandom is used as fallback.
The cache is also cleared on thread exit iff it was initialized (so if
arc4random is not called it is not touched).
Although it is lock-free, arc4random is still not async-signal-safe
(the per thread state is not updated atomically).
The ChaCha20 implementation is based on RFC8439 [1], omitting the final
XOR of the keystream with the plaintext because the plaintext is a
stream of zeros. This strategy is similar to what OpenBSD arc4random
does.
The arc4random_uniform is based on previous work by Florian Weimer,
where the algorithm is based on Jérémie Lumbroso paper Optimal Discrete
Uniform Generation from Coin Flips, and Applications (2013) [2], who
credits Donald E. Knuth and Andrew C. Yao, The complexity of nonuniform
random number generation (1976), for solving the general case.
The main advantage of this method is the that the unit of randomness is not
the uniform random variable (uint32_t), but a random bit. It optimizes the
internal buffer sampling by initially consuming a 32-bit random variable
and then sampling byte per byte. Depending of the upper bound requested,
it might lead to better CPU utilization.

allocation and deallocation functions. At each call site to a known
deallocation function GCC checks the set of allocation functions
the former can be paired with and, if the two don't match, issues
a -Wmismatched-dealloc warning (something similar happens in C++
for mismatched calls to new and delete). GCC also uses the same
mechanism to detect attempts to deallocate objects not allocated
by any allocation function (or pointers past the first byte into
allocated objects) by -Wfree-nonheap-object.
This support is enabled for built-in functions like malloc and free.
To extend it beyond those, GCC extends attribute malloc to designate
a deallocation function to which pointers returned from the allocation
function may be passed to deallocate the allocated objects. Another,
optional argument designates the positional argument to which
the pointer must be passed.
This change is the first step in enabling this extended support for
Glibc.
Keep __exit_funcs_lock almost all the time and unlock it only to execute
callbacks. This fixed two issues.
1. f->func.cxa was modified outside the lock with rare data race like:
thread 0: __run_exit_handlers unlock __exit_funcs_lock
thread 1: __internal_atexit locks __exit_funcs_lock
thread 0: f->flavor = ef_free;
thread 1: sees ef_free and use it as new
thread 1: new->func.cxa.fn = (void (*) (void *, int)) func;
thread 1: new->func.cxa.arg = arg;
thread 1: new->flavor = ef_cxa;
thread 0: cxafct = f->func.cxa.fn; // it's wrong fn!
thread 0: cxafct (f->func.cxa.arg, status); // it's wrong arg!
thread 0: goto restart;
thread 0: call the same exit_function again as it's ef_cxa
2. Don't unlock in main while loop after *listp = cur->next. If *listp
is NULL and __exit_funcs_done is false another thread may fail in
__new_exitfn on assert (l != NULL):
thread 0: *listp = cur->next; // It can be the last: *listp = NULL.
thread 0: __libc_lock_unlock
thread 1: __libc_lock_lock in __on_exit
thread 1: __new_exitfn
thread 1: if (__exit_funcs_done) // false: thread 0 isn't there yet.
thread 1: l = *listp
thread 1: moves one and crashes on assert (l != NULL);
The test needs multiple iterations to consistently fail without the fix.

Old implementation of realpath allocates a PATH_MAX using alloca for
each symlink in the path, leading to MAXSYMLINKS times PATH_MAX
maximum stack usage.
The test create a symlink with __eloop_threshold() loops and creates
a thread with minimum stack size (obtained through
support_small_stack_thread_attribute). The thread issues a stack
allocations that fill the thread allocated stack minus some slack
plus and the realpath usage (which assumes a bounded stack usage).
If realpath uses more than about 2 * PATH_MAX plus some slack it
triggers a stackoverflow.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.

I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 6694 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c
and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this
diagnostic from Savannah:
remote: *** pre-commit check failed ...
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
The functions strtoimax, strtoumax, wcstoimax, wcstoumax currently
have three implementations each (wordsize-32, wordsize-64 and dummy
implementation in stdlib/ using #error), defining the functions as
thin wrappers round corresponding *_internal functions. Simplify the
code by changing them into aliases of functions such as strtol and
wcstoull. This is more consistent with how e.g. imaxdiv is handled.
Tested for x86_64 and x86.
Since commit a3cc4f48e9 ("Remove
--as-needed configure test."), --as-needed support is no longer
optional.
The macros are not much shorter and do not provide documentary
value, either, so this commit removes them.
