Commit glibc-2.14~10 disallowed rtld self loading to avoid a segfault
that used to happen when rtld was loading itself in normal mode.
Unfortunately, that commit disallowed all modes of self loading,
including those that used to work before. This change limits the check
for self loading to normal mode only, so that instruments like ldd could
handle rtld properly.
* csu/libc-tls.c (static_dtv): Renamed to ...
(_dl_static_dtv): This. Make it global.
(_dl_initial_dtv): Removed.
(__libc_setup_tls): Updated.
* elf/dl-tls.c (DL_INITIAL_DTV): New macro.
(_dl_deallocate_tls): Replace GL(dl_initial_dtv) with
DL_INITIAL_DTV.
When unmapping the first object in a namespace, the runtime linker
did not update the externally visible pointer. This resulted in
debuggers seeing pointers to memory that had been freed.
Add support for STT_GNU_IFUNC symbols and the new R_390_IRELATIVE
relocation. Provide optimized version of memcpy, memset, and memcmp
for z10 and z196.
[BZ #13579] Do not free l_initfini and allow it to be reused
on subsequent dl_open calls for the same library. This fixes
the invalid memory access in do_lookup_x when the previously
free'd l_initfini was accessed through l_searchlist when a
library had been opened for the second time.
[BZ #13882]
* elf/dl-deps.c (_dl_map_object_deps): Fix cycle detection. Use
uint16_t for elements in the "seen" array to avoid char overflows.
* elf/dl-fini.c (_dl_sort_fini): Likewise.
* elf/dl-open.c (dl_open_worker): Likewise.
When a stack is marked executable due to loading a DSO that requires
an executable stack, the logic tends to leave out a portion of stack
after the first frame, thus causing a difference in the value returned
by pthread_getattr_np before and after the stack is marked
executable. It ought to be possible to fix this by marking the rest of
the stack as executable too, but in the interest of marking as less of
the stack as executable as possible, the path this fix takes is to
make pthread_getattr_np also look at the first frame as the underflow
end of the stack and compute size and stack top accordingly.
The above happens only for the main process stack. NPTL thread stacks
are not affected by this change.
The current implementation of __strtoul_internal seems to only pretend
to support hex and octal strings by detecting a preceding 0x or 0 and
marking base as 8 or 16. When it comes to the actual processing of the
string, it only considers numeric values within, thus breaking hex
values that may have [a-f] in them. Fixed with this commit.
It may sometimes be desirable to make the dynamic linker only pick up
libraries from the library path and rpath and not look at the
ld.so.cache that ldconfig generates. An example of such a use case is
the glibc testsuite where the dynamic linker must not be influenced by
any external paths or caches.
This change adds a new option --inhibit-ldcache that when used, tells
the dynamic linker to not use ld.so.cache even if it is available.
* elf/rtld.c (dl_main): If DL_DEBUG_UNUSED is enabled, turn off
lazy binding.
* elf/dl-lookup (_dl_lookup_symbol_x): If DL_DEBUG_UNUSED, ignore
undefined symbol errors.
* elf/rtlc.c (dl_main): Skip VDSO when checking for unused
DT_NEEDED entries.
* sysdeps/sparc/sparc32/dl-machine.h (elf_machine_rela): Protect local
variables with appropriate CPP guards.
* sysdeps/sparc/sparc32/dl-trampoline.S: Propagate the stack_ptr from the
frame pointer, not the stack pointer. Correct layout comments. Fix test
on resulting framesize and the management of the outregs buffer for pltexit.
Preserve floating point return values across _dl_call_pltexit call.
* sysdeps/sparc/sparc64/dl-trampoline.S: Fix test on resulting
framesize and the management of the outregs buffer for pltexit.
Preserve floating point return values across _dl_call_pltexit
call.
* elf/sotruss-lib.c (la_sparc32_gnu_pltenter, la_sparc64_gnu_pltenter,
la_sparc32_gnu_pltexit, la_sparc64_gnu_pltexit): New functions.
(print_exit): Fix format string for return register value.
update_get_addr returns a link_map*, but the return expression
was of type char*. Fix by relying on gcc's void* arithmetic
extension and auto-conversion from void*.
We never seem to have hit this problem but way relative relocations
were skipped was wrong. There are relative relocations only in the
DT_REL/DT_RELA section. The elf_dynamic_do_##reloc function skipped
the entries in all calls, though.
