The posix_spawnattr_tcsetpgrp_np works on a file descriptor (the

it on the file actions API.
Also, POSIX_SPAWN_TCSETPGROUP is not really required since it is
implicit by the presence of tcsetpgrp file action.
The posix/tst-spawn6.c is also fixed when TTY can is not present.

Currently there is no proper way to set the controlling terminal through
posix_spawn in race free manner [1]. This forces shell implementations
to keep using fork+exec when launching background process groups,
even when using posix_spawn yields better performance.
This patch adds a new GNU extension so the creating process can
configure the created process terminal group. This is done with a new
flag, POSIX_SPAWN_TCSETPGROUP, along with two new attribute functions:
posix_spawnattr_tcsetpgrp_np, and posix_spawnattr_tcgetpgrp_np.
The function sets a new attribute, spawn-tcgroupfd, that references to
the controlling terminal.
The controlling terminal is set after the spawn-pgroup attribute, and
uses the spawn-tcgroupfd along with current creating process group
(so it is composable with POSIX_SPAWN_SETPGROUP).
To create a process and set the controlling terminal, one can use the
following sequence:
posix_spawnattr_t attr;
posix_spawnattr_init (&attr);
posix_spawnattr_setflags (&attr, POSIX_SPAWN_TCSETPGROUP);
posix_spawnattr_tcsetpgrp_np (&attr, tcfd);
If the idea is also to create a new process groups:
posix_spawnattr_t attr;
posix_spawnattr_init (&attr);
posix_spawnattr_setflags (&attr, POSIX_SPAWN_TCSETPGROUP
| POSIX_SPAWN_SETPGROUP);
posix_spawnattr_tcsetpgrp_np (&attr, tcfd);
posix_spawnattr_setpgroup (&attr, 0);
The controlling terminal file descriptor is ignored if the new flag is
not set.
This interface is slight different than the one provided by QNX [2],
which only provides the POSIX_SPAWN_TCSETPGROUP flag. The QNX
documentation does not specify how the controlling terminal is obtained
nor how it iteracts with POSIX_SPAWN_SETPGROUP. Since a glibc
implementation is library based, it is more straightforward and avoid
requires additional file descriptor operations to request the caller
to setup the controlling terminal file descriptor (and it also allows
a bit less error handling by posix_spawn).

We add a new C.UTF-8 locale. This locale is not builtin to glibc, but
is provided as a distinct locale. The locale provides full support for
UTF-8 and this includes full code point sorting via STRCMP-based
collation (strcmp or wcscmp).
The collation uses a new keyword 'codepoint_collation' which drops all
collation rules and generates an empty zero rules collation to enable
STRCMP usage in collation. This ensures that we get full code point
sorting for C.UTF-8 with a minimal 1406 bytes of overhead (LC_COLLATE
structure information and ASCII collating tables).
The new locale is added to SUPPORTED. Minimal test data for specific
code points (minus those not supported by collate-test) is provided in
C.UTF-8.in, and this verifies code point sorting is working reasonably
across the range. The locale was tested manually with the full set of
code points without failure.
The locale is harmonized with locales already shipping in various
downstream distributions. A new tst-iconv9 test is added which verifies
the C.UTF-8 locale is generally usable.
Testing for fnmatch, regexec, and recomp is provided by extending
bug-regex1, bugregex19, bug-regex4, bug-regex6, transbug, tst-fnmatch,
tst-regcomp-truncated, and tst-regex to use C.UTF-8.

Split the mcheck implementation into the debugging hooks and API so

libc APIs always result in failure.
The mcheck implementation has also been moved entirely into
libc_malloc_debug.so and with it, all of the hook initialization code
can now be moved into the debug library. Now the initialization can
be done independently of libc internals.
With this patch, libc_malloc_debug.so can no longer be used with older
libcs, which is not its goal anyway. tst-vfork3 breaks due to this
since it spawns shell scripts, which in turn execute using the system
glibc. Move the test to tests-container so that only the built glibc

libc_malloc_debug.so is a malloc interposer that needs to be preloaded

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

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.

Austin Group issue 62 [1] dropped the async-signal-safe requirement
for fork and provided a async-signal-safe _Fork replacement that
does not run the atfork handlers. It will be included in the next
POSIX standard.
It allow to close a long standing issue to make fork AS-safe (BZ#4737).
As indicated on the bug, besides the internal lock for the atfork
handlers itself; there is no guarantee that the handlers itself will
not introduce more AS-safe issues.
The idea is synchronize fork with the required internal locks to allow
children in multithread processes to use mostly of standard function
(even though POSIX states only AS-safe function should be used). On
signal handles, _Fork should be used intead and only AS-safe functions
should be used.
For testing, the new tst-_Fork only check basic usage. I also added
a new tst-mallocfork3 which uses the same strategy to check for
deadlock of tst-mallocfork2 but using threads instead of subprocesses
(and it does deadlock if it replaces _Fork with fork).

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

Therefore those tests are now only relying on libnss_files.so by making

By moving the tests to tests-container, those are now running with

As noted in bug 13888, and as I noted previously in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2000-10/msg00111.html>, various
tests used hardcoded paths in /tmp, so posing issues for simultaneous
test runs from different build directories.
This patch fixes such uses of hardcoded file names to put them in the
build directory instead (in the case of stdio-common/bug5 the file
names are changed as well, to avoid a conflict with the name bug5.out
also used for the automatic test output redirection). It also fixes
test-installation.pl likewise (that was using filenames with $$ in
them rather than strictly hardcoded names, but that's still not good
practice for temporary file naming).
Note that my list of files changed is not identical to that in bug
13888. I added tst-spawn3.c and test-installation.pl, and removed
some tests that seem to me (now) to create temporary files securely
(simply using /tmp is not itself a problem if the temporary files are
handled properly with mkstemp; I haven't checked whether those tests
used to do things insecurely). conformtest is not changed because the
makefiles always pass a --tmpdir option so the /tmp default is
irrelevant, and for the same reason there is no actual problem with
nptl/tst-umask1.c because again the makefiles always override the
default.
nptl/sockperf.c is ignored because there is no code to run it;
probably that file should actually be removed.
Some tests use the mktemp function, but I think they all use it in a
way that *is* secure (for generating names for directories / sockets /
fifos / symlinks, where the operation using the name will not follow
symlinks and so there is no potential for a symlink attack on the
account running the testsuite).
Some tests use the tmpnam function to generate temporary file names.
This is in principle insecure, but not addressed by this patch (I
consider it a separate issue from the fully hardcoded paths).

Bug 13575 reports that SSIZE_MAX is wrongly defined as LONG_MAX on
32-bit systems where ssize_t is defined as int (which is most 32-bit
systems supported by glibc).
This patch fixes the definition, using a conditional on
__WORDSIZE32_SIZE_ULONG to determine the appropriate type in the
32-bit case. Formally ssize_t need not be the signed type
corresponding to size_t, but as it is for all current glibc
configurations, there is no need for a new macro different from the
one used for defining SIZE_MAX. A testcase is added for both the type
and the value of SSIZE_MAX.
There is a relevant peculiarity in
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/s390/bits/typesizes.h:
/* Compatibility with g++ 2.95.x. */
/* size_t is unsigned long int on s390 -m31. */
This has the effect that for GCC 2 for s390, ssize_t does not match
__WORDSIZE32_SIZE_ULONG. I don't think such a conditional on the GCC
version makes sense - to have a well-defined ABI, the choices of
standard types should not depend on the GCC version. It's also the
case that upstream GCC 2.95 did not support s390, and glibc headers
don't in general try to support past development GCC versions - only
actual releases and current mainline development. But whether or not
that GCC 2 case should be removed (with or without a NEWS entry for
such a change), this patch does not result in any changes for s390;
the value is always still LONG_MAX in the s390 case because
__WORDSIZE32_SIZE_ULONG is always defined for 32-bit s390. I don't
think any such oddity in code only active for unofficial or unreleased
old compiler versions should block closing the present bug as fixed
once this patch is in.
