Add support for MTE to strncmp. Regression tested with xcheck and benchmarked
with glibc's benchtests on the Cortex-A53, Cortex-A72, and Neoverse N1.
The existing implementation assumes that any access to the pages in which the
string resides is safe. This assumption is not true when MTE is enabled. This
patch updates the algorithm to ensure that accesses remain within the bounds
of an MTE tag (16-byte chunks) and improves overall performance.

On Fedora 40/x86-64, linker enables --enable-new-dtags by default which
generates DT_RUNPATH instead of DT_RPATH. Unlike DT_RPATH, DT_RUNPATH
only applies to DT_NEEDED entries in the executable and doesn't applies
to DT_NEEDED entries in shared libraries which are loaded via DT_NEEDED
entries in the executable. Some glibc tests have libstdc++.so.6 in
DT_NEEDED, which has libm.so.6 in DT_NEEDED. When DT_RUNPATH is generated,
/lib64/libm.so.6 is loaded for such tests. If the newly built glibc is
older than glibc 2.36, these tests fail with

Ffsll function randomly regress by ~20%, depending on how code gets
aligned in memory. Ffsll function code size is 17 bytes. Since default
function alignment is 16 bytes, it can load on 16, 32, 48 or 64 bytes
aligned memory. When ffsll function load at 16, 32 or 64 bytes aligned
memory, entire code fits in single 64 bytes cache line. When ffsll
function load at 48 bytes aligned memory, it splits in two cache line,
hence random regression.
Ffsll function size reduction from 17 bytes to 12 bytes ensures that it
will always fit in single 64 bytes cache line.

Split `shared` (cumulative cache size) from `shared_per_thread` (cache

Previously we added `core` even if `threads_l2` was invalid, and only
used `threads_l2` to divide `core` if it was present. The changed

This change restores the old behavior if `threads_l2` is invalid by

(cherry picked from commit 47f7472178)
Current `non_temporal_threshold` set to roughly '3/4 * sizeof_L3 /
ncores_per_socket'. This patch updates that value to roughly
'sizeof_L3 / 4`
The original value (specifically dividing the `ncores_per_socket`) was
done to limit the amount of other threads' data a `memcpy`/`memset`
could evict.
Dividing by 'ncores_per_socket', however leads to exceedingly low
non-temporal thresholds and leads to using non-temporal stores in
cases where REP MOVSB is multiple times faster.
Furthermore, non-temporal stores are written directly to main memory
so using it at a size much smaller than L3 can place soon to be
accessed data much further away than it otherwise could be. As well,
modern machines are able to detect streaming patterns (especially if
REP MOVSB is used) and provide LRU hints to the memory subsystem. This
in affect caps the total amount of eviction at 1/cache_associativity,
far below meaningfully thrashing the entire cache.
As best I can tell, the benchmarks that lead this small threshold
where done comparing non-temporal stores versus standard cacheable
stores. A better comparison (linked below) is to be REP MOVSB which,
on the measure systems, is nearly 2x faster than non-temporal stores
at the low-end of the previous threshold, and within 10% for over
100MB copies (well past even the current threshold). In cases with a
low number of threads competing for bandwidth, REP MOVSB is ~2x faster
up to `sizeof_L3`.
The divisor of `4` is a somewhat arbitrary value. From benchmarks it
seems Skylake and Icelake both prefer a divisor of `2`, but older CPUs
such as Broadwell prefer something closer to `8`. This patch is meant
to be followed up by another one to make the divisor cpu-specific, but
in the meantime (and for easier backporting), this patch settles on
`4` as a middle-ground.

stores where done using:

This tests for a bug that was introduced in commit edc1686af0 ("vfprintf:
Reuse work_buffer in group_number") and fixed as a side effect of commit
6caddd34bd ("Remove most vfprintf width/precision-dependent allocations
(bug 14231, bug 26211).").
(cherry picked from commit ca6466e8be)
A recent GCC mainline change introduces errors of the form:
vfprintf-internal.c: In function 'group_number':
vfprintf-internal.c:2093:15: error: 'memmove' specified bound between 9223372036854775808 and 18446744073709551615 exceeds maximum object size 9223372036854775807 [-Werror=stringop-overflow=]
2093 | memmove (w, s, (front_ptr -s) * sizeof (CHAR_T));
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is a genuine bug in the glibc code: s > front_ptr is always true
at this point in the code, and the intent is clearly for the
subtraction to be the other way round. The other arguments to the
memmove call here also appear to be wrong; w and s point just *after*
the destination and source for copying the rest of the number, so the
size needs to be subtracted to get appropriate pointers for the
copying. Adjust the memmove call to conform to the apparent intent of
the code, so fixing the -Wstringop-overflow error.
Now, if the original code were ever executed, a buffer overrun would
result. However, I believe this code (introduced in commit
edc1686af0, "vfprintf: Reuse work_buffer
in group_number", so in glibc 2.26) is unreachable in prior glibc
releases (so there is no need for a bug in Bugzilla, no need to
consider any backports unless someone wants to build older glibc
releases with GCC 12 and no possibility of this buffer overrun
resulting in a security issue).
work_buffer is 1000 bytes / 250 wide characters. This case is only
reachable if an initial part of the number, plus a grouped copy of the
rest of the number, fail to fit in that space; that is, if the grouped
number fails to fit in the space. In the wide character case,
grouping is always one wide character, so even with a locale (of which
there aren't any in glibc) grouping every digit, a number would need
to occupy at least 125 wide characters to overflow, and a 64-bit
integer occupies at most 23 characters in octal including a leading 0.
In the narrow character case, the multibyte encoding of the grouping
separator would need to be at least 42 bytes to overflow, again
supposing grouping every digit, but MB_LEN_MAX is 16. So even if we
admit the case of artificially constructed locales not shipped with
glibc, given that such a locale would need to use one of the character
sets supported by glibc, this code cannot be reached at present. (And
POSIX only actually specifies the ' flag for grouping for decimal
output, though glibc acts on it for other bases as well.)
With binary output (if you consider use of grouping there to be
valid), you'd need a 15-byte multibyte character for overflow; I don't
know if any supported character set has such a character (if, again,
we admit constructed locales using grouping every digit and a grouping
separator chosen to have a multibyte encoding as long as possible, as
well as accepting use of grouping with binary), but given that we have
this code at all (clearly it's not *correct*, or in accordance with
the principle of avoiding arbitrary limits, to skip grouping on
running out of internal space like that), I don't think it should need
any further changes for binary printf support to go in.
On the other hand, support for large sizes of _BitInt in printf (see
the N2858 proposal) *would* require something to be done about such
arbitrary limits (presumably using dynamic allocation in printf again,
for sufficiently large _BitInt arguments only - currently only
floating-point uses dynamic allocation, and, as previously discussed,
that could actually be replaced by bounded allocation given smarter
code).
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py for aarch64-linux-gnu (GCC mainline).
Also tested natively for x86_64.
(cherry picked from commit db6c4935fa)
The vfprintf implementation (used for all printf-family functions)
contains complicated logic to allocate internal buffers of a size
depending on the width and precision used for a format, using either
malloc or alloca depending on that size, and with consequent checks
for size overflow and allocation failure.
As noted in bug 26211, the version of that logic used when '$' plus
argument number formats are in use is missing the overflow checks,
which can result in segfaults (quite possibly exploitable, I didn't
try to work that out) when the width or precision is in the range
0x7fffffe0 through 0x7fffffff (maybe smaller values as well in the
wprintf case on 32-bit systems, when the multiplication by sizeof
(CHAR_T) can overflow).
All that complicated logic in fact appears to be useless. As far as I
can tell, there has been no need (outside the floating-point printf
code, which does its own allocations) for allocations depending on
width or precision since commit
3e95f6602b ("Remove limitation on size
of precision for integers", Sun Sep 12 21:23:32 1999 +0000). Thus,
this patch removes that logic completely, thereby fixing both problems
with excessive allocations for large width and precision for
non-floating-point formats, and the problem with missing overflow
checks with such allocations. Note that this does have the
consequence that width and precision up to INT_MAX are now allowed
where previously INT_MAX / sizeof (CHAR_T) - EXTSIZ or more would have
been rejected, so could potentially expose any other overflows where
the value would previously have been rejected by those removed checks.
I believe this completely fixes bugs 14231 and 26211.
Excessive allocations are still possible in the floating-point case
(bug 21127), as are other integer or buffer overflows (see bug 26201).
This does not address the cases where a precision larger than INT_MAX
(embedded in the format string) would be meaningful without printf's
return value overflowing (when it's used with a string format, or %g
without the '#' flag, so the actual output will be much smaller), as
mentioned in bug 17829 comment 8; using size_t internally for
precision to handle that case would be complicated by struct
printf_info being a public ABI. Nor does it address the matter of an
INT_MIN width being negated (bug 17829 comment 7; the same logic
appears a second time in the file as well, in the form of multiplying
by -1). There may be other sources of memory allocations with malloc
in printf functions as well (bug 24988, bug 16060). From inspection,
I think there are also integer overflows in two copies of "if ((width
-= len) < 0)" logic (where width is int, len is size_t and a very long
string could result in spurious padding being output on a 32-bit
system before printf overflows the count of output characters).
Tested for x86-64 and x86.
(cherry picked from commit 6caddd34bd)
This is an updated version of a previous patch [1] with the
following changes:
- Use compiler overflow builtins on done_add_func function.
- Define the scratch +utstring_converted_wide_string using
CHAR_T.
- Added a testcase and mention the bug report.
Both default and wide printf functions might leak memory when
manipulate multibyte characters conversion depending of the size
of the input (whether __libc_use_alloca trigger or not the fallback
heap allocation).
This patch fixes it by removing the extra memory allocation on
string formatting with conversion parts.
The testcase uses input argument size that trigger memory leaks
on unpatched code (using a scratch buffer the threashold to use
heap allocation is lower).
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.

with AVX512 instructions using ZMM16-ZMM31 registers to avoid RTM abort
with usable AVX512VL and AVX512BW since VZEROUPPER isn't needed at
function exit.
(cherry picked from commit 4e2d8f3527)
At function exit, AVX optimized string/memory functions have VZEROUPPER
which triggers RTM abort. When such functions are called inside a
transactionally executing RTM region, RTM abort causes severe performance
degradation. Add tests to verify that string/memory functions won't
cause RTM abort in RTM region.

at function exit on processors with usable RTM, but without 256-bit EVEX
instructions to avoid VZEROUPPER inside a transactionally executing RTM
region.
