This patch adds decoration on the stack created and used by

And for user-provided stacks:

The guard page is not decorated, and the mapping name is cleared when
the thread finishes its execution (so the cached stack does not have any

This reverts commit 6985865bc3.
Reason for revert:
The commit changes the order of ELF destructor calls too much relative
to what applications expect or can handle. In particular, during
process exit and _dl_fini, after the revert commit, we no longer call
the destructors of the main program first; that only happens after
some dlopen'ed objects have been destructed. This robs applications
of an opportunity to influence destructor order by calling dlclose
explicitly from the main program's ELF destructors. A couple of
different approaches involving reverse constructor order were tried,
and none of them worked really well. It seems we need to keep the
dependency sorting in _dl_fini.
There is also an ambiguity regarding nested dlopen calls from ELF
constructors: Should those destructors run before or after the object
that called dlopen? Commit 6985865bc3 used reverse order
of the start of ELF constructor calls for destructors, but arguably
using completion of constructors is more correct. However, that alone
is not sufficient to address application compatibility issues (it
does not change _dl_fini ordering at all).
The string parsing routine may end up writing beyond bounds of tunestr
if the input tunable string is malformed, of the form name=name=val.
This gets processed twice, first as name=name=val and next as name=val,
resulting in tunestr being name=name=val:name=val, thus overflowing
tunestr.
Terminate the parsing loop at the first instance itself so that tunestr
does not overflow.
This also fixes up tst-env-setuid-tunables to actually handle failures
correct and add new tests to validate the fix for this CVE.

The current implementation of dlclose (and process exit) re-sorts the
link maps before calling ELF destructors. Destructor order is not the
reverse of the constructor order as a result: The second sort takes
relocation dependencies into account, and other differences can result
from ambiguous inputs, such as cycles. (The force_first handling in
_dl_sort_maps is not effective for dlclose.) After the changes in
this commit, there is still a required difference due to
dlopen/dlclose ordering by the application, but the previous
discrepancies went beyond that.
A new global (namespace-spanning) list of link maps,
_dl_init_called_list, is updated right before ELF constructors are
called from _dl_init.
In dl_close_worker, the maps variable, an on-stack variable length
array, is eliminated. (VLAs are problematic, and dlclose should not
call malloc because it cannot readily deal with malloc failure.)
Marking still-used objects uses the namespace list directly, with
next and next_idx replacing the done_index variable.
After marking, _dl_init_called_list is used to call the destructors
of now-unused maps in reverse destructor order. These destructors
can call dlopen. Previously, new objects do not have l_map_used set.
This had to change: There is no copy of the link map list anymore,
so processing would cover newly opened (and unmarked) mappings,
unloading them. Now, _dl_init (indirectly) sets l_map_used, too.
(dlclose is handled by the existing reentrancy guard.)
After _dl_init_called_list traversal, two more loops follow. The
processing order changes to the original link map order in the
namespace. Previously, dependency order was used. The difference
should not matter because relocation dependencies could already
reorder link maps in the old code.
The changes to _dl_fini remove the sorting step and replace it with
a traversal of _dl_init_called_list. The l_direct_opencount
decrement outside the loader lock is removed because it appears
incorrect: the counter manipulation could race with other dynamic
loader operations.
tst-audit23 needs adjustments to the changes in LA_ACT_DELETE
notifications. The new approach for checking la_activity should
make it clearer that la_activty calls come in pairs around namespace
updates.
The dependency sorting test cases need updates because the destructor
order is always the opposite order of constructor order, even with
relocation dependencies or cycles present.
There is a future cleanup opportunity to remove the now-constant
force_first and for_fini arguments from the _dl_sort_maps function.
Fixes commit 1df71d32fe ("elf: Implement
force_first handling in _dl_sort_maps_dfs (bug 28937)").

In short: __tls_get_addr checks the global generation counter and if
the current dtv is older then _dl_update_slotinfo updates dtv up to the
generation of the accessed module. So if the global generation is newer
than generation of the module then __tls_get_addr keeps hitting the
slow dtv update path. The dtv update path includes a number of checks
to see if any update is needed and this already causes measurable tls
access slow down after dlopen.
It may be possible to detect up-to-date dtv faster. But if there are
many modules loaded (> TLS_SLOTINFO_SURPLUS) then this requires at
least walking the slotinfo list.
This patch tries to update the dtv to the global generation instead, so
after a dlopen the tls access slow path is only hit once. The modules
with larger generation than the accessed one were not necessarily
synchronized before, so additional synchronization is needed.
This patch uses acquire/release synchronization when accessing the
generation counter.
Note: in the x86_64 version of dl-tls.c the generation is only loaded
once, since relaxed mo is not faster than acquire mo load.

When dlopen is being called, efforts have been made to improve
future lookup performance. This includes marking a search path
as non-existent using `stat`. However, if the root directory
is given as a search path, there exists a bug which erroneously
marks it as non-existing.
The bug is reproduced under the following sequence:
1. dlopen is called to open a shared library, with at least:
1) a dependency 'A.so' not directly under the '/' directory
(e.g. /lib/A.so), and
2) another dependency 'B.so' resides in '/'.
2. for this bug to reproduce, 'A.so' should be searched *before* 'B.so'.
3. it first tries to find 'A.so' in /, (e.g. /A.so):
- this will (obviously) fail,
- since it's the first time we have seen the '/' directory,
its 'status' is 'unknown'.
4. `buf[buflen - namelen - 1] = '\0'` is executed:
- it intends to remove the leaf and its final slash,
- because of the speciality of '/', its buflen == namelen + 1,
- it erroneously clears the entire buffer.
6. it then calls 'stat' with the empty buffer:
- which will result in an error.
7. so it marks '/' as 'nonexisting', future lookups will not consider
this path.
8. while /B.so *does* exist, failure to look it up in the '/'
directory leads to a 'cannot open shared object file' error.
This patch fixes the bug by preventing 'buflen', an index to put '\0',
from being set to 0, so that the root '/' is always kept.
Relative search paths are always considered as 'existing' so this
wont be affected.

When mcount overflows, no gmon.out file is generated, but no message is printed

some bug - which is how BZ 27576 ended up being logged. Print a message to
stderr in this case so the user knows what is going on.
As a comment in sys/gmon.h acknowledges, the hardcoded MAXARCS value is too
small for some large applications, including the test case in that BZ. Rather
than increase it, add tunables to enable MINARCS and MAXARCS to be overridden
at runtime (glibc.gmon.minarcs and glibc.gmon.maxarcs). So if a user gets the
mcount overflow error, they can try increasing maxarcs (they might need to
increase minarcs too if the heuristic is wrong in their case.)
Note setting minarcs/maxarcs too large can cause monstartup to fail with an
out of memory error. If you set them large enough, it can cause an integer
overflow in calculating the buffer size. I haven't done anything to defend
against that - it would not generally be a security vulnerability, since these
tunables will be ignored in suid/sgid programs (due to the SXID_ERASE default),
and if you can set GLIBC_TUNABLES in the environment of a process, you can take
it over anyway (LD_PRELOAD, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc). I thought about modifying
the code of monstartup to defend against integer overflows, but doing so is
complicated, and I realise the existing code is susceptible to them even prior
to this change (e.g. try passing a pathologically large highpc argument to
monstartup), so I decided just to leave that possibility in-place.

As the libc6 version of the `implicit_soname` code is a trivial `xstrdup`,
just inline it and remove `implicit_soname` altogether.
Some further simplification looks possible (e.g. the call to `create_links`

which is always added by the static linker, to get the correct values.
This is problematic in some ways:
- The segment may see its in-memory size differ from its in-file
size (or the binary may have holes). The Linux has fixed is to
provide concise values for both AT_PHDR and AT_PHNUM (commit
0da1d5002745c - "fs/binfmt_elf: Fix AT_PHDR for unusual ELF files")
- Some archs (alpha for instance) the hidden weak reference is not
correctly pulled by the static linker and __ehdr_start address
end up being 0, which makes GL(dl_phdr) and GL(dl_phnum) have both
invalid values (and triggering a segfault later on libc.so while
accessing TLS variables).
The safer fix is to just restore the previous behavior to setup
GL(dl_phdr) and GL(dl_phnum) for static based on kernel auxv. The
__ehdr_start fallback can also be simplified by not assuming weak
linkage (as for PIE).
The libc-static.c auxv init logic is moved to dl-support.c, since
the later is build without SHARED and then GLRO macro is defined

The __printf_fp rewrite does not change the actual binary-to-decimal

this Lua script
for i=1,5000000 do
print(i, i * math.pi)
end
runs about 5% faster for me. To preserve fprintf performance for
a simple "%d" format, this commit has some logic changes under
LABEL (unsigned_number) to avoid additional function calls. There
are certainly some very easy performance improvements here: binary,
octal and hexadecimal formatting can easily avoid the temporary work
buffer (the number of digits can be computed ahead-of-time using one
of the __builtin_clz* built-ins). Decimal formatting can use a
specialized version of _itoa_word for base 10.
The existing (inconsistent) width handling between strfmon and printf
is preserved here. __print_fp_buffer_1 would have to use
__translated_number_width to achieve ISO conformance for printf.
Test expectations in libio/tst-vtables-common.c are adjusted because
the internal staging buffer merges all virtual function calls into
one.
In general, stack buffer usage is greatly reduced, particularly for
unbuffered input streams. __printf_fp can still use a large buffer
in binary128 mode for %g, though.

These buffers will eventually be used instead of FILE * objects
to implement printf functions. The multibyte buffer is struct
__printf_buffer, the wide buffer is struct __wprintf_buffer.
To enable writing type-generic code, the header files
printf_buffer-char.h and printf_buffer-wchar_t.h define the
Xprintf macro differently, enabling Xprintf (buffer) to stand
for __printf_buffer and __wprintf_buffer as appropriate. For
common cases, macros like Xprintf_buffer are provided as a more
syntactically convenient shortcut.
Buffer-specific flush callbacks are implemented with a switch
statement instead of a function pointer, to avoid hardening issues
similar to those of libio vtables. struct __printf_buffer_as_file
is needed to support custom printf specifiers because the public
interface for that requires passing a FILE *, which is why there
is a trapdoor back from these buffers to FILE * streams.
Since the immediate user of these interfaces knows when processing
has finished, there is no flush callback for the end of processing,
only a flush callback for the intermediate buffer flush.

The old exception handling implementation used function interposition
to replace the dynamic loader implementation (no TLS support) with the
libc implementation (TLS support). This results in problems if the
link order between the dynamic loader and libc is reversed (bug 25486).
The new implementation moves the entire implementation of the
exception handling functions back into the dynamic loader, using
THREAD_GETMEM and THREAD_SETMEM for thread-local data support.
These depends on Hurd support for these macros, added in commit
b65a82e4e7 ("hurd: Add THREAD_GET/SETMEM/_NC").
One small obstacle is that the exception handling facilities are used
before the TCB has been set up, so a check is needed if the TCB is
available. If not, a regular global variable is used to store the
exception handling information.
Also rename dl-error.c to dl-catch.c, to avoid confusion with the
dlerror function.

The need to maintain elf/elf.h and scripts/glibcelf.py in parallel
results in a backporting hazard: they need to be kept in sync to
avoid elf/tst-glibcelf consistency check failures. glibcelf (unlike
tst-glibcelf) does not use the C implementation to extract constants.
This applies the additional glibcpp syntax checks to <elf.h>.
This changereplaces the types derived from Python enum types with
custom types _TypedConstant, _IntConstant, and _FlagConstant. These
types have fewer safeguards, but this also allows incremental
construction and greater flexibility for grouping constants among
the types. Architectures-specific named constants are now added
as members into their superclasses (but value-based lookup is
still restricted to generic constants only).
Consequently, check_duplicates in elf/tst-glibcelf has been adjusted
to accept differently-named constants of the same value if their
subtypes are distinct. The ordering check for named constants
has been dropped because they are no longer strictly ordered.
Further test adjustments: Some of the type names are different.
The new types do not support iteration (because it is unclear
whether iteration should cover the all named values (including
architecture-specific constants), or only the generic named values),
so elf/tst-glibcelf now uses by_name explicit (to get all constants).
PF_HP_SBP and PF_PARISC_SBP are now of distinct types (PfHP and
PfPARISC), so they are how both present on the Python side. EM_NUM
and PT_NUM are filtered (which was an oversight in the old
conversion).
The new version of glibcelf should also be compatible with earlier
Python versions because it no longer depends on the enum module and its
advanced features.

libc_map is never reset to NULL, neither during dlclose nor on a

To prevent similar bugs on namespace reuse from surfacing,
unconditionally initialize the chosen namespace to zero using memset.

Once this change hits the release branches, it will require relinking
of all statically linked applications before static dlopen works
again, for the majority of updates on release branches: The NEWS file
is regularly updated with bug references, so the __libc_early_init
suffix changes, and static dlopen cannot find the function anymore.

configure argument.
_dl_call_libc_early_init is replaced with _dl_lookup_libc_early_init.
The new function is used store a pointer to libc.so's
__libc_early_init function in the libc_map_early_init member of the
ld.so namespace structure. This function pointer can then be called
directly, so the separate invocation function is no longer needed.
The versioned symbol lookup needs the symbol versioning data
structures, so the initialization of libc_map and libc_map_early_init
is now done from _dl_check_map_versions, after this information
becomes available. (_dl_map_object_from_fd does not set this up
in time, so the initialization code had to be moved from there.)
This means that the separate initialization code can be removed from
dl_main because _dl_check_map_versions covers all maps, including
the initial executable loaded by the kernel. The lookup still happens
before relocation and the invocation of IFUNC resolvers, so IFUNC
resolvers are protected from ABI mismatch.
The __libc_early_init function pointer is not protected because
so little code runs between the pointer write and the invocation
(only dynamic linker code and IFUNC resolvers).

turns out this never worked perfectly.

When an executable is invoked as
./ld.so [ld.so-args] ./exe [exe-args]
then the argv is adujusted in ld.so before calling the entry point of
the executable so ld.so args are not visible to it. On most targets
this requires moving argv, env and auxv on the stack to ensure correct
stack alignment at the entry point. This had several issues:
- The code for this adjustment on the stack is written in asm as part
of the target specific ld.so _start code which is hard to maintain.
- The adjustment is done after _dl_start returns, where it's too late
to update GLRO(dl_auxv), as it is already readonly, so it points to
memory that was clobbered by the adjustment. This is bug 23293.
- _environ is also wrong in ld.so after the adjustment, but it is
likely not used after _dl_start returns so this is not user visible.
- _dl_argv was updated, but for this it was moved out of relro, which
changes security properties across targets unnecessarily.
This patch introduces a generic _dl_start_args_adjust function that
handles the argument adjustments after ld.so processed its own args
and before relro protection is applied.
The same algorithm is used on all targets, _dl_skip_args is now 0, so
existing target specific adjustment code is no longer used. The bug
affects aarch64, alpha, arc, arm, csky, ia64, nios2, s390-32 and sparc,
other targets don't need the change in principle, only for consistency.

built glibc is still provided through NT_GNU_ABI_TAG ELF note and
also printed when libc.so is issued.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.
This implements mmap fallback for a brk failure during TLS
allocation.
scripts/tls-elf-edit.py is updated to support the new patching method.
The script no longer requires that in the input object is of ET_DYN
type.

When neither DT_HASH nor DT_GNU_HASH is present, the code scans
[DT_SYMTAB, DT_STRTAB). However, there is no guarantee that .dynstr
immediately follows .dynsym (e.g. lld typically places .gnu.version
after .dynsym).
In the absence of a hash table, symbol lookup will always fail
(map->l_nbuckets == 0 in dl-lookup.c) as if the object has no symbol, so
it seems fair for dladdr to do the same.
