The rtld audit support show two problems on aarch64:
1. _dl_runtime_resolve does not preserve x8, the indirect result
location register, which might generate wrong result calls
depending of the function signature.
2. The NEON Q registers pushed onto the stack by _dl_runtime_resolve
were twice the size of D registers extracted from the stack frame by
_dl_runtime_profile.
While 2. might result in wrong information passed on the PLT tracing,
1. generates wrong runtime behaviour.
The aarch64 rtld audit support is changed to:
* Both La_aarch64_regs and La_aarch64_retval are expanded to include
both x8 and the full sized NEON V registers, as defined by the
ABI.
* dl_runtime_profile needed to extract registers saved by
_dl_runtime_resolve and put them into the new correctly sized
La_aarch64_regs structure.
* The LAV_CURRENT check is change to only accept new audit modules
to avoid the undefined behavior of not save/restore x8.
* Different than other architectures, audit modules older than
LAV_CURRENT are rejected (both La_aarch64_regs and La_aarch64_retval
changed their layout and there are no requirements to support multiple
audit interface with the inherent aarch64 issues).
* A new field is also reserved on both La_aarch64_regs and
La_aarch64_retval to support variant pcs symbols.
Similar to x86, a new La_aarch64_vector type to represent the NEON
register is added on the La_aarch64_regs (so each type can be accessed
directly).
Since LAV_CURRENT was already bumped to support bind-now, there is
no need to increase it again.
Checked on aarch64-linux-gnu.

The audit symbind callback is not called for binaries built with
-Wl,-z,now or when LD_BIND_NOW=1 is used, nor the PLT tracking callbacks
(plt_enter and plt_exit) since this would change the expected
program semantics (where no PLT is expected) and would have performance
implications (such as for BZ#15533).
LAV_CURRENT is also bumped to indicate the audit ABI change (where
la_symbind flags are set by the loader to indicate no possible PLT
trace).
To handle powerpc64 ELFv1 function descriptor, _dl_audit_symbind
requires to know whether bind-now is used so the symbol value is
updated to function text segment instead of the OPD (for lazy binding
this is done by PPC64_LOAD_FUNCPTR on _dl_runtime_resolve).

The 4af6982e4c fix does not fully handle RTLD_BOOTSTRAP usage on
rtld.c due two issues:
1. RTLD_BOOTSTRAP is also used on dl-machine.h on various
architectures and it changes the semantics of various machine
relocation functions.
2. The elf_get_dynamic_info() change was done sideways, previously
to 490e6c62aa get-dynamic-info.h was included by the first
dynamic-link.h include *without* RTLD_BOOTSTRAP being defined.
It means that the code within elf_get_dynamic_info() that uses
RTLD_BOOTSTRAP is in fact unused.
To fix 1. this patch now includes dynamic-link.h only once with
RTLD_BOOTSTRAP defined. The ELF_DYNAMIC_RELOCATE call will now have
the relocation fnctions with the expected semantics for the loader.
And to fix 2. part of 4af6982e4c is reverted (the check argument
elf_get_dynamic_info() is not required) and the RTLD_BOOTSTRAP
pieces are removed.
To reorganize the includes the static TLS definition is moved to
its own header to avoid a circular dependency (it is defined on
dynamic-link.h and dl-machine.h requires it at same time other
dynamic-link.h definition requires dl-machine.h defitions).
Also ELF_MACHINE_NO_REL, ELF_MACHINE_NO_RELA, and ELF_MACHINE_PLT_REL
are moved to its own header. Only ancient ABIs need special values
(arm, i386, and mips), so a generic one is used as default.

The fix for bug 19329 caused a regression such that pthread_create can
deadlock when concurrent ctors from dlopen are waiting for it to finish.
Use a new GL(dl_load_tls_lock) in pthread_create that is not taken
around ctors in dlopen.
The new lock is also used in __tls_get_addr instead of GL(dl_load_lock).
The new lock is held in _dl_open_worker and _dl_close_worker around
most of the logic before/after the init/fini routines. When init/fini
routines are running then TLS is in a consistent, usable state.
In _dl_open_worker the new lock requires catching and reraising dlopen
failures that happen in the critical section.
The new lock is reinitialized in a fork child, to keep the existing
behaviour and it is kept recursive in case malloc interposition or TLS
access from signal handlers can retake it. It is not obvious if this
is necessary or helps, but avoids changing the preexisting behaviour.
The new lock may be more appropriate for dl_iterate_phdr too than
GL(dl_load_write_lock), since TLS state of an incompletely loaded
module may be accessed. If the new lock can replace the old one,
that can be a separate change.

Remove all malloc hook uses from core malloc functions and move it

longer have any effect on the core library.
libc_malloc_debug.so is a malloc interposer that needs to be preloaded
to get hooks functionality back so that the debugging features that
depend on the hooks, i.e. malloc-check, mcheck and mtrace work again.
Without the preloaded DSO these debugging features will be nops.
These features will be ported away from hooks in subsequent patches.
Similarly, legacy applications that need hooks functionality need to
preload libc_malloc_debug.so.
The symbols exported by libc_malloc_debug.so are maintained at exactly
the same version as libc.so.
Finally, static binaries will no longer be able to use malloc

This patch adds a way to close a range of file descriptors on
posix_spawn as a new file action. The API is similar to the one
provided by Solaris 11 [1], where the file action causes the all open
file descriptors greater than or equal to input on to be closed when
the new process is spawned.
The function posix_spawn_file_actions_addclosefrom_np is safe to be
implemented by iterating over /proc/self/fd, since the Linux spawni.c
helper process does not use CLONE_FILES, so its has own file descriptor
table and any failure (in /proc operation) aborts the process creation
and returns an error to the caller.
I am aware that this file action might be redundant to the current
approach of POSIX in promoting O_CLOEXEC in more interfaces. However
O_CLOEXEC is still not the default and for some specific usages, the
caller needs to close all possible file descriptors to avoid them
leaking. Some examples are CPython (discussed in BZ#10353) and OpenJDK
jspawnhelper [2] (where OpenJDK spawns a helper process to exactly
closes all file descriptors). Most likely any environment which calls
functions that might open file descriptor under the hood and aim to use
posix_spawn might face the same requirement.

Calling free directly may end up freeing a pointer allocated by the
dynamic loader using malloc from libc.so in the base namespace using
the allocator from libc.so in a secondary namespace, which results in
crashes.
This commit redirects the free call through GLRO and the dynamic
linker, to reach the correct namespace. It also cleans up the dlerror
handling along the way, so that pthread_setspecific is no longer
needed (which avoids triggering bug 24774).
Commit 9e78f6f6e7 ("Implement
_dl_catch_error, _dl_signal_error in libc.so [BZ #16628]") has the
side effect that distinct namespaces, as created by dlmopen, now have
separate implementations of the rtld exception mechanism. This means
that the call to _dl_catch_error from libdl in a secondary namespace
does not actually install an exception handler because the
thread-local variable catch_hook in the libc.so copy in the secondary
namespace is distinct from that of the base namepace. As a result, a
dlsym/dlopen/... failure in a secondary namespace terminates the process
with a dynamic linker error because it looks to the exception handler
mechanism as if no handler has been installed.
This commit restores GLRO (dl_catch_error) and uses it to set the
handler in the base namespace.

This essentially folds compat_symbol_unique functionality into
compat_symbol.
This change eliminates the need for intermediate aliases for defining
multiple symbol versions, for both compat_symbol and versioned_symbol.
Some binutils versions do not suport multiple versions per symbol on
some targets, so aliases are automatically introduced, similar to what
compat_symbol_unique did. To reduce symbol table sizes, a configure
check is added to avoid these aliases if they are not needed.
The new mechanism works with data symbols as well as function symbols,
due to the way an assembler-level redirect is used. It is not
compatible with weak symbols for old binutils versions, which is why
the definition of __malloc_initialize_hook had to be changed. This
is not a loss of functionality because weak symbols do not matter
to dynamic linking.
The placeholder symbol needs repeating in nptl/libpthread-compat.c
now that compat_symbol is used, but that seems more obvious than
introducing yet another macro.
A subtle difference was that compat_symbol_unique made the symbol
global automatically. compat_symbol does not do this, so static
had to be removed from the definition of
__libpthread_version_placeholder.
