Previously, glibc would pick an arbitrary tmpfs file system from
/proc/mounts if /dev/shm was not available. This could lead to
an unsuitable file system being picked for the backing storage for
shm_open, sem_open, and related functions.
This patch introduces a new function, __shm_get_name, which builds
the file name under the appropriate (now hard-coded) directory. It is
called from the various shm_* and sem_* function. Unlike the
SHM_GET_NAME macro it replaces, the callers handle the return values
and errno updates. shm-directory.c is moved directly into the posix
subdirectory because it can be implemented directly using POSIX
functionality. It resides in libc because it is needed by both
librt and nptl/htl.
In the sem_open implementation, tmpfname is initialized directly
from a string constant. This happens to remove one alloca call.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.
Add _SC_MINSIGSTKSZ for the minimum signal stack size derived from
AT_MINSIGSTKSZ, which is the minimum number of bytes of free stack
space required in order to gurantee successful, non-nested handling
of a single signal whose handler is an empty function, and _SC_SIGSTKSZ
which is the suggested minimum number of bytes of stack space required
for a signal stack.
If AT_MINSIGSTKSZ isn't available, sysconf (_SC_MINSIGSTKSZ) returns
MINSIGSTKSZ. On Linux/x86 with XSAVE, the signal frame used by kernel
is composed of the following areas and laid out as:
------------------------------
| alignment padding |
------------------------------
| xsave buffer |
------------------------------
| fsave header (32-bit only) |
------------------------------
| siginfo + ucontext |
------------------------------
Compute AT_MINSIGSTKSZ value as size of xsave buffer + size of fsave
header (32-bit only) + size of siginfo and ucontext + alignment padding.
If _SC_SIGSTKSZ_SOURCE or _GNU_SOURCE are defined, MINSIGSTKSZ and SIGSTKSZ
are redefined as
/* Default stack size for a signal handler: sysconf (SC_SIGSTKSZ). */
# undef SIGSTKSZ
# define SIGSTKSZ sysconf (_SC_SIGSTKSZ)
/* Minimum stack size for a signal handler: SIGSTKSZ. */
# undef MINSIGSTKSZ
# define MINSIGSTKSZ SIGSTKSZ
Compilation will fail if the source assumes constant MINSIGSTKSZ or
SIGSTKSZ.
The reason for not simply increasing the kernel's MINSIGSTKSZ #define
(apart from the fact that it is rarely used, due to glibc's shadowing
definitions) was that userspace binaries will have baked in the old
value of the constant and may be making assumptions about it.
For example, the type (char [MINSIGSTKSZ]) changes if this #define
changes. This could be a problem if an newly built library tries to
memcpy() or dump such an object defined by and old binary.
Bounds-checking and the stack sizes passed to things like sigaltstack()
and makecontext() could similarly go wrong.
I've updated copyright dates in glibc for 2021. This is the patch for
the changes not generated by scripts/update-copyrights and subsequent
build / regeneration of generated files. As well as the usual annual
updates, mainly dates in --version output (minus csu/version.c which
previously had to be handled manually but is now successfully updated
by update-copyrights), there is a small change to the copyright notice
in NEWS which should let NEWS get updated automatically next year.
Please remember to include 2021 in the dates for any new files added
in future (which means updating any existing uncommitted patches you
have that add new files to use the new copyright dates in them).
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:

Introduce a new _FORTIFY_SOURCE level of 3 to enable additional
fortifications that may have a noticeable performance impact, allowing
more fortification coverage at the cost of some performance.
With llvm 9.0 or later, this will replace the use of
__builtin_object_size with __builtin_dynamic_object_size.
__builtin_dynamic_object_size
-----------------------------
__builtin_dynamic_object_size is an LLVM builtin that is similar to
__builtin_object_size. In addition to what __builtin_object_size
does, i.e. replace the builtin call with a constant object size,
__builtin_dynamic_object_size will replace the call site with an
expression that evaluates to the object size, thus expanding its
applicability. In practice, __builtin_dynamic_object_size evaluates
these expressions through malloc/calloc calls that it can associate
with the object being evaluated.
A simple motivating example is below; -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 would miss
this and emit memcpy, but -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 with the help of
__builtin_dynamic_object_size is able to emit __memcpy_chk with the
allocation size expression passed into the function:
void *copy_obj (const void *src, size_t alloc, size_t copysize)
{
void *obj = malloc (alloc);
memcpy (obj, src, copysize);
return obj;
}
Limitations
-----------
If the object was allocated elsewhere that the compiler cannot see, or
if it was allocated in the function with a function that the compiler
does not recognize as an allocator then __builtin_dynamic_object_size
also returns -1.
Further, the expression used to compute object size may be non-trivial
and may potentially incur a noticeable performance impact. These
fortifications are hence enabled at a new _FORTIFY_SOURCE level to
allow developers to make a choice on the tradeoff according to their
environment.
GCC 6.5 fails to correctly build ldconfig with recent ld.so.cache
commits, e.g.:
785969a047
elf: Implement a string table for ldconfig, with tail merging
If glibc is build with gcc 6.5.0:
__builtin_add_overflow is used in
<glibc>/elf/stringtable.c:stringtable_finalize()
which leads to ldconfig failing with "String table is too large".
This is also recognizable in following tests:
FAIL: elf/tst-glibc-hwcaps-cache
FAIL: elf/tst-glibc-hwcaps-prepend-cache
FAIL: elf/tst-ldconfig-X
FAIL: elf/tst-ldconfig-bad-aux-cache
FAIL: elf/tst-ldconfig-ld_so_conf-update
FAIL: elf/tst-stringtable
See gcc "Bug 98269 - gcc 6.5.0 __builtin_add_overflow() with small
uint32_t values incorrectly detects overflow"
(https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=98269)
float_t supposedly represents the type that is used to evaluate float
expressions internally. While the isa supports single-precision float
operations, the port of glibc to s390 incorrectly deferred to the
generic definitions which, back then, tied float_t to double. gcc by
default evaluates float in single precision, so that scenario violates
the C standard (sections 5.2.4.2.2 and 7.12 in C11/C17). With
-fexcess-precision=standard, gcc evaluates float in double precision,
which aligns with the standard yet at the cost of added conversion
instructions.
With this patch, we drop the s390-specific definition of float_t and
defer to the default behavior, which aligns float_t with the
compiler-defined FLT_EVAL_METHOD in a standard-compliant way.
Checked on s390x-linux-gnu with 31-bit and 64-bit builds.
The IBM1364, IBM1371, IBM1388, IBM1390 and IBM1399 character sets
share converter logic (iconvdata/ibm1364.c) which would reject
redundant shift sequences when processing input in these character
sets. This led to a hang in the iconv program (CVE-2020-27618).
This commit adjusts the converter to ignore redundant shift sequences
and adds test cases for iconv_prog hangs that would be triggered upon
their rejection. This brings the implementation in line with other
converters that also ignore redundant shift sequences (e.g. IBM930
etc., fixed in commit 692de4b396).

I couldn't pinpoint which standard has added it, but no other POSIX
system supports it and/or no longer provide it. The 'struct vtimes'
also has a lot of drawbacks due its limited internal type size.
I couldn't also see find any project that actually uses this symbol,
either in some dignostic way (such as sanitizer). So I think it should
be safer to just move to compat symbol, instead of deprecated. The
idea it to avoid new ports to export such broken interface (riscv32
for instance).
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.
This functionality does not seem to be useful since static dlopen
is mostly used for iconv/character set conversion and NSS support.
gconv modules are loaded with full paths anyway, so that the
HWCAP subdirectory logic does not apply.

Current systems do not have BSD terminals, so the fallback code in
posix_openpt/getpt does not do anything. Also remove the file system
check for /dev/pts. Current systems always have a devpts file system
mounted there if /dev/ptmx exists.
grantpt is now essentially a no-op. It only verifies that the

array can be expanded with backward binary compatibility for both .o and

processor features, __x86_get_cpu_features in the older glibc binaries
returns NULL and HAS_CPU_FEATURE/CPU_FEATURE_USABLE return false on the
new processor feature. No new symbol version is neeeded.
Both CPU_FEATURE_USABLE and HAS_CPU_FEATURE are provided. HAS_CPU_FEATURE
can be used to identify processor features.
Note: Although GCC has __builtin_cpu_supports, it only supports a subset

After some discussions it seems the original news was not clear
and that it is valid to manually pass the branch protection flags
iff GCC target libs are built with them too. The main difference
between manually passing the flags and using the configure
option is that the latter also makes branch protection the
default in GCC which may not be desirable in some cases.
