This patch fixes the glibc testsuite build for GCC 7
-Wformat-truncation, newly moved out of -Wformat-length and with some
further warnings that didn't previously appear. Two tests that
previously disabled -Wformat-length are changed to disable
-Wformat-truncation instead; two others are made to disable that
option as well.
Tested (compilation only) with build-many-glibcs.py for aarch64 with
GCC mainline.
* stdio-common/tst-printf.c [__GNUC_PREREQ (7, 0)]: Ignore
-Wformat-truncation instead of -Wformat-length.
* time/tst-strptime2.c (mkbuf) [__GNUC_PREREQ (7, 0)]: Likewise.
* stdio-common/tstdiomisc.c (F): Ignore -Wformat-truncation for
GCC 7.
* wcsmbs/tst-wcstof.c: Include <libc-internal.h>.
(do_test): Ignore -Wformat-truncation for GCC 7.
With the elf/sotruss-lib.c failure fixed, building 64-bit glibc with
GCC mainline fails with another format-truncation error in
locale/programs/ld-address.c, where 11 bytes are allocated for a
buffer to print a long int value.
This patch changes that code to allocate 21 bytes. Treating this
value as signed is questionable and I don't think large values are
actually useful here, but I think those can be considered as instances
of bug 21036 which I've filed for overflow checks for numeric values
in localedef in general, and don't need to be addressed to fix the
build.
Tested with GCC mainline with compilation for aarch64 with
build-many-glibcs.py, and with glibc testsuite for x86_64 (built with
GCC 6).
(Note that while this fixes the build of 64-bit glibc with GCC
mainline, further fixes will be needed to get the testsuite building
with GCC mainline again.)
* locale/programs/ld-address.c (INT_STR_ELEM): Increase size of
buffer used to print long int value.
Building 64-bit glibc with GCC mainline fails with:
../elf/sotruss-lib.c: In function 'la_version':
../elf/sotruss-lib.c:91:28: error: '%lu' directive output may be truncated writing between 1 and 20 bytes into a region of size 11 [-Werror=format-truncation=]

^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pids from getpid cannot actually be negative, but the compiler doesn't
know this. Other places in this file use (signed) long int for
printing, so this patch makes this place do so as well. Then it
increases the buffer size by one byte to allow for the minus sign that
can't actually occur. It doesn't seem worth using diagnostic pragmas
to save one byte; other place in this file just use a cruder 3 *
sizeof (pid_t) calculation for number of digits.
Tested with GCC mainline with compilation for aarch64 with
build-many-glibcs.py, and with glibc testsuite for x86_64 (built with
GCC 6).
* elf/sotruss-lib.c (init): Increase space allocated for pid by
one byte. Print it with %ld, cast to long int.
I used this patch to run the new build script with python3.2, it may be worth
adding this hack if python3.5 is not widespread (might work with older python,
i haven't tested that).
This patch make build-many-glibcs.py work with python 3.2 by
adding fallback implementation to python 3.5 facilities if they
are not present.
Checked building a x86_64-linux-gnu toolchain with python 3.2.
2016-11-22 Szabolcs Nagy <szabolcs.nagy@arm.com>
* scripts/build-many-glibcs.py (os.cpu_count): Add compatibility definition.
(re.fullmatch, subprocess.run): Likewise.
Builds with --enable-tunables failed on i686 because a call to getenv
got snuck into tunables, which pulled in strncmp. This patch fixes
this build failure by making the glibc.malloc.check check even
simpler. The previous approach was convoluted where the tunable was
disabled using an unsetenv and overwriting the tunable value with
colons. The easier way is to simply mark the tunable as insecure by
default (i.e. won't be read for AT_SECURE programs) and then enabled
only when the /etc/suid-debug file is found.
This also ends up removing a bunch of functions that were specially
reimplemented (strlen, unsetenv) to avoid calling into string
routines.
Tested on x86_64 and i686.
* elf/dl-tunables.c (tunables_unsetenv): Remove function.
(min_strlen): Likewise.
(disable_tunable): Likewise.
(maybe_disable_malloc_check): Rename to
maybe_enable_malloc_check.
(maybe_enable_malloc_check): Enable glibc.malloc.check tunable
if /etc/suid-debug file exists.
(__tunables_init): Update caller.
* elf/dl-tunables.list (glibc.malloc.check): Don't mark as
secure.
This patch arranges for various libm-test.inc tests to be XFAILed for
ibm128-libgcc in non-default rounding modes. The tests are marked
with XFAIL_ROUNDING_IBM128_LIBGCC and gen-libm-test.pl is made to
transform that to XFAIL_IBM128_LIBGCC or 0 depending on the rounding
mode.
This should allow test-ldouble, test-ildouble and test-ldouble-finite
to pass with unmodified libgcc, given an ulps regeneration. (The case
of patched libgcc was already clean up to ulps and possibly hypot
cases very close to the overflow threshold that may need more
XFAILing; patched libgcc, which should work with
TEST_COND_ibm128_libgcc defined to 0 to disable all these XFAILs, does
need slightly different ulps from unpatched.) Note that soft-float
powerpc will still fail because of
<https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=64811> resulting in
spurious "invalid" exceptions in the libgcc code (for hard float,
<https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58684> hides that bug).
Tested for powerpc.
* math/libm-test.inc (XFAIL_IBM128_LIBGCC): New macro.
(fdim_test_data): Use XFAIL_ROUNDING_IBM128_LIBGCC for some tests.
(fma_test_data): Likewise.
(hypot_test_data): Likewise.
(log1p_test_data): Likewise.
(modf_test_data): Likewise.
(pow_test_data): Likewise.
(remainder_test_data): Likewise.
(remquo_test_data): Likewise.
(scalb_test_data): Likewise.
(scalbn_test_data): Likewise.
(scalbln_test_data): Likewise.
* math/gen-libm-test.pl (parse_args): Transform
XFAIL_ROUNDING_IBM128_LIBGCC to XFAIL_IBM128_LIBGCC or 0 depending
on the rounding mode.
This patch further improves XFAILing for ibm128-libgcc of tests in
auto-libm-test-*.
The bulk of the cases needing XFAILing are
xfail-rounding:ibm128-libgcc used for inputs where (possibly after
rounding the inputs to another floating-point type) the result
overflows (and the result in non-default rounding modes may be wildly
wrong with unpatched libgcc) or underflows near 0 (and the result in
non-default rounding modes may end up having the wrong sign). This
patch makes gen-auto-libm-tests detect such cases and apply
xfail-rounding:ibm128-libgcc automatically to them, so most of the
manual XFAILs in auto-libm-test-in are no longer needed (some are
still needed if e.g. the result is very close to overflow, resulting
in an internal overflow in libgcc in some rounding modes). A few
manual XFAILs are added for cases not covered by this
gen-auto-libm-tests change, and a few existing such XFAILs are left
in.
Tested for powerpc.
* math/gen-auto-libm-tests.c (output_for_one_input_case): Apply
xfail-rounding:ibm128-libgcc automatically to tests overflowing
and those that can underflow to zero.
* math/auto-libm-test-in: Remove most XFAILs for ibm128-libgcc and
add others.
* math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated.
This patch fixes math/test-fenv.c to check EXCEPTION_TESTS and
ROUNDING_TESTS to avoid failing in cases where some exceptions or
rounding modes are defined but not supported at runtime.
Tested for mips64 soft float and for x86_64.
* math/test-fenv.c (fe_tests): Skip most tests when exceptions not
supported.
(feholdexcept_tests): Skip tests requiring exceptions or rounding
modes support if not supported.
This patch updates the MicroBlaze localplt.data based on the results
of a build with build-many-glibcs.py. This is simply an empirical
update; quite possibly the port could be optimized to remove more
local PLT entry usage.
Tested (compilation tests) with build-many-glibcs.py.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/microblaze/localplt.data (__pread64):
Add libc.so PLT entry.
(__tls_get_addr): Make ld.so PLT entry optional.
Commit 38765ab68f moved the bzero, bcopy, and explicit_bzero
fortified macros to a common header (strings_fortified.h). However
the side effect is a fortified explicit_bzero is defined when including
only strings.h.
This patch moves back the fortified explicit_bzero definition to
strings3.h header.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.
* string/bits/strings_fortified.h (explicit_bzero): Move back to ..
* string/bits/string3.h: ... here.
The fallback implementation of fesetexceptflag currently fails if any
exceptions are specified. It should always succeed, because the
exception state is always that all exceptions (if any are defined in
<fenv.h> but not supported in this configuration) are always clear,
just as fallback fetestexcept always succeeds and fallback fesetenv
always succeeds unless asked to set FE_NOMASK_ENV.
This patch fixes it accordingly. Together with the patch to
test-fexcept.c to allow feraiseexcept to fail in another place, this
stops that test from failing for MIPS soft-float.
Tested for mips64 soft-float.
[BZ #21028]
* math/fsetexcptflg.c (__fesetexceptflag): Always return 0.
* math/test-fexcept.c (test_set): Allow failure of feraiseexcept
if EXCEPTION_TESTS returns false.
As described in BZ#20558, bzero and bcopy declaration can only benefit
from fortified macros when decl came from string.h and when __USE_MISC
is defined (default behaviour).
This is due no standard includes those functions in string.h, so they
are only declared if __USE_MISC is defined (as pointed out in comment 4).
However fortification should be orthogona to other features test macros,
i.e, any function should be fortified if that function is declared.
To fix this behavior, the patch moved the bzero, bcopy, and
__explicit_bzero_chk to a common header (string/bits/strings_fortified.h)
and explicit fortified inclusion macros similar to string.h is added
on strings.h. This allows to get fortified declarions by only including
strings.h.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and along on a bootstrap installation to check
if the fortified are correctly triggered with example from bug report.
[BZ #20558]
* string/bits/string3.h [__USE_MISC] (bcopy): Move to
strings_fortified.h.
[__USE_MISC] (bzero): Likewise.
[__USE_MISC] (explicit_bzero): Likewise.
* string/strings.h: Include strings_fortified.h.
* string/Makefile (headers): Add strings_fortified.h.
* string/bits/strings_fortified.h: New file.
* include/bits/strings_fortified.h: Likewise.
This patch increases timeouts on some tests I've observed timing out.
elf/tst-tls13 and iconvdata/tst-loading both dynamically load many
objects and so are slow when testing over NFS. They had timeouts set
from before the default changed from 2 to 20 seconds; this patch
removes those old settings, so effectively increasing the timeout to
20 seconds (from 3 and 10 seconds respectively).
malloc/tst-malloc-thread-fail.c and malloc/tst-mallocfork2.c are slow
on slow systems and so I set a fairly arbitrary 100 second timeout,
which seems to suffice on the system where I saw them timing out.
nss/tst-cancel-getpwuid_r.c and nss/tst-nss-getpwent.c are slow on
systems with a large passwd file; I set timeouts that empirically
worked for me. (It seems tst-cancel-getpwuid_r.c is hitting the
100000 getpwuid_r call limit in my testing, with each call taking a
bit over 0.007 seconds, so 700 seconds for the test.)
* elf/tst-tls13.c (TIMEOUT): Remove.
* iconvdata/tst-loading.c (TIMEOUT): Likewise.
* malloc/tst-malloc-thread-fail.c (TIMEOUT): Increase to 100.
* malloc/tst-mallocfork2.c (TIMEOUT): Define to 100.
* nss/tst-cancel-getpwuid_r.c (TIMEOUT): Define to 900.
* nss/tst-nss-getpwent.c (TIMEOUT): Define to 300.
As noted in bug 20126, MIPS n64 uses an incorrect implementation of
readahead intended for 32-bit systems. This patch adds a
syscalls.list entry to fix this. An updated version of the
consolidation patch
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-09/msg00527.html> could
remove this syscalls.list entry again.
Tested with compilation (only) for mips64; the nature of the syscall
doesn't allow for a glibc test to detect this issue.
[BZ #21026]
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips64/n64/syscalls.list
(readahead): New syscall entry.
GCC 7 has a -Wstringop-overflow= warning that includes warning for
strncat with a size specified that is larger than the size of the
buffer (which is dubious usage, but valid at runtime if in fact there
isn't an overflow with the particular buffer contents present).
string/tester.c tests such cases; this patch arranges for this warning
to be ignored around relevant strncat calls.
Tested compilation for aarch64 (GCC mainline) with
build-many-glibcs.py; did execution testing for x86_64 (GCC 5).
* string/tester.c (test_strncat): Disable -Wstringop-overflow=
around tests of strncat with large sizes.
GCC 7 has a -Walloc-size-larger-than= warning for allocations of half
the address space or more. This causes errors building glibc tests
that deliberately test failure of very large allocations. This patch
arranges for this warning to be ignored around the problematic
function calls.
Tested compilation for aarch64 (GCC mainline) with
build-many-glibcs.py; did execution testing for x86_64 (GCC 5).
* malloc/tst-malloc.c: Include <libc-internal.h>.
(do_test): Disable -Walloc-size-larger-than= around tests of
malloc with negative sizes.
* malloc/tst-mcheck.c: Include <libc-internal.h>.
(do_test): Disable -Walloc-size-larger-than= around tests of
malloc and realloc with negative sizes.
* malloc/tst-realloc.c: Include <libc-internal.h>.
(do_test): Disable -Walloc-size-larger-than= around tests of
realloc with negative sizes.
This patch cleans up and updates the libm-test XFAILs for the ibm128
format. More of them are changed to use a new ibm128-libgcc
conditional, to reflect that they are not in fact needed if you've
patched libgcc to fix the known issues (at substantial performance
cost). Many additional XFAILs are added for tests that fail with
unpatched libgcc (most but not all of them xfail-rounding).
Note that further such fixes will be needed for test-ldouble actually
to pass with default libgcc (in particular, XFAILs for pow tests and
for various affected tests directly embedded in libm-test.inc). With
patched libgcc, there may be a few XFAILs needed but the results are
already substantially clean apart from a few ulps differences.
Tested for powerpc.
* math/libm-test.inc (TEST_COND_ibm128_libgcc): New macro.
(init_max_error) [TEST_COND_ibm128]: Increase maximum error
allowed to 16 ulps.
* math/auto-libm-test-in: Change most XFAILs for ibm128 to use
ibm128-libgcc. XFAIL more tests for ibm128-libgcc.
* math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated.
This commit moves one step towards the deprecation of wrappers that
use _LIB_VERSION / matherr / __kernel_standard functionality, by
adding the suffix '_compat' to their filenames and adjusting Makefiles
and #includes accordingly.
New template wrappers that do not use such functionality will be added
by future patches and will be first used by the float128 wrappers.
For MicroBlaze, setjmp/check-installed-headers-cxx fails with:
../setjmp/setjmp.h:34:8: error: '__jmp_buf_tag' has a field '__jmp_buf_tag::__jmpbuf' whose type depends on the type '<unnamed struct>' which has no linkage [-Werror=subobject-linkage]
This patch fixes this in the same way as for some other architectures:
the struct used for the internal __jmp_buf type is given the tag
__jmp_buf_internal_tag.
Tested (compilation tests) with build-many-glibcs.py.
* sysdeps/microblaze/bits/setjmp.h (__jmp_buf): Give struct tag
__jmp_buf_internal_tag.
This corresponds to a patch applied to libgcc. In glibc it doesn't
actually affect much (only fma, I think).
The MIPS sfp-machine.h files have an _FP_CHOOSENAN implementation
which emulates hardware semantics of not preserving signaling NaN
payloads for an operation with two NaN arguments (although that
doesn't suffice to avoid sNaN payload preservation in any case with
just one NaN argument).
However, those are only hardware semantics in the legacy NaN case; in
the NAN2008 case, the architecture documentation says hardware
preserves payloads in such cases. Furthermore, this implementation
assumes legacy NaN semantics, so in the NAN2008 case the
implementation actually has the effect of preserving sNaN payloads but
not preserving qNaN payloads, when both should be preserved.
This patch fixes the code just to copy from the first argument.
Tested for mips64 soft-float.
* sysdeps/mips/mips32/sfp-machine.h (_FP_CHOOSENAN): Always
preserve NaN payload if [__mips_nan2008].
* sysdeps/mips/mips64/sfp-machine.h (_FP_CHOOSENAN): Likewise.
Many linknamespace tests fail for MicroBlaze because __backtrace (as
brought in by libc_fatal.c) uses an inline function get_frame_size
which is not declared static. This patch fixes it to be declared
static.
Tested (compilation tests) with build-many-glibcs.py.
[BZ #21022]
* sysdeps/microblaze/backtrace.c (get_frame_size): Make static.
When testing changes to i386 libm functions (that are shadowed for
i686 builds by i686 versions) recently, I saw that the plain i386
libm-test-ulps (as opposed to the i686 multiarch version) needed
updating for tests that had been added since it was last updated.
This patch updates it accordingly.
* sysdeps/i386/fpu/libm-test-ulps: Update.
Since commit 6e46de42fe default strcat implementation is essentially
the same for specialized ia64 and powerpc ones. This patch removes the
redundant implementation and adjust powerpc64 ifunc code to use the
default one.
Checked on powerpc32-linux-gnu (default and power4) and ia64-linux build
and on powerpc64le-linux-gnu.
* sysdeps/ia64/strcat.c: Remove file.
* sysdeps/powerpc/strcat.c: Likewise.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/multiarch/strcat-power7.c: Use default

The update of *adapt_count after the release of the lock causes a race
condition when thread A unlocks, thread B continues and destroys the
mutex, and thread A writes to *adapt_count.
This patch fixes math/test-fenvinline.c to stop it failing in
no-exceptions configurations (where some exception macros are defined
but may not be supported at runtime). The relevant parts of the test
are disabled in that case; some parts can still run (and the rounding
mode tests are written in a way such that they work even if the
rounding modes aren't supported).
Tested for mips64 soft-float, and for x86_64 to make sure the tests
still run when the exceptions are supported.
* math/test-fenvinline.c (do_test): Disable tests of raised
exceptions if !EXCEPTION_TESTS (FLOAT).
Similar to BZ#19387, BZ#21014, and BZ#20971, both x86 sse2 strncat
optimized assembly implementations do not handle the size overflow
correctly.
The x86_64 one is in fact an issue with strcpy-sse2-unaligned, but
that is triggered also with strncat optimized implementation.
This patch uses a similar strategy used on 3daef2c8ee, where
saturared math is used for overflow case.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu. It fixes BZ #19390.
[BZ #19390]
* string/test-strncat.c (test_main): Add tests with SIZE_MAX as
maximum string size.
* sysdeps/i386/i686/multiarch/strcat-sse2.S (STRCAT): Avoid overflow
in pointer addition.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strcpy-sse2-unaligned.S (STRCPY):
Likewise.
elf/Makefile passes arguments to tst-ldconfig-X.sh that are different
from what it expects, so resulting in the test failing in cross
testing. This patch corrects the arguments passed (the script itself
has correct logic for cross testing, it's just the Makefile that's
wrong).
Tested for powerpc (cross testing) and for x86_64 (native testing).
* elf/Makefile ($(objpfx)tst-ldconfig-X.out): Correct arguments
passed to tst-ldconfig-X.sh.
Mixing them up breaks the gdb pretty printer tests.

The lseek consolidation broke lseek64 for MIPS n32, so resulting in
io/test-lfs failing with an incorrect return from ftello64. This
configuration uses the lseek syscall with a 64-bit return value; as
the C syscall macros return long, they cannot be used in this case and
so an assembly implementation is needed; accordingly, this patch adds
lseek64 back to syscalls.list for this configuration.
lseek was also broken, truncating the result without checking for
overflow. lseek however was already broken before the consolidation;
it aliased lseek64 so would return an out-of-range value, resulting in
architecturally undefined behavior in the caller if it tried to use a
non-sign-extended value with a 32-bit instruction. This patch adds a
custom lseek implementation in C for n32, which calls __lseek64 to get
the 64-bit value then checks for overflow.
Because the prior lseek breakage did not show in test results, and the
lseek64 breakage showed only indirectly through tests of ftello64,
test coverage was clearly inadequate. This patch extends
io/test-lfs.c to test the lseek64 return value (at a point where it
has already seeked over 2GB into a file), and then to test the lseek
return value (with the latter's expectations depending on whether
off_t is smaller than off64_t).
Tested for mips64 n32. Also tested test-lfs for x86_64 and x86, where
as expected it passes.
[BZ #21019]
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips64/n32/syscalls.list (lseek64):
New syscall entry.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips64/n32/lseek.c: New file.
* io/test-lfs.c (do_test): Test offset returned from lseek64 and
lseek.
The 32-bit powerpc configurations in build-many-glibcs.py were failing
to cover the powerpc32 multiarch code at all, because that code is
only built for power4 and above configurations. This patch adds a
32-bit power4 configuration so that at least some of that multiarch
code gets build-tested. (This is preparation for reviewing the w_*
file renaming, which affects such powerpc32 multiarch files.)
* scripts/build-many-glibcs.py (Context.add_all_configs): Add
power4 glibc for powerpc-linux-gnu.
The command IPC_STAT of semctl expects an union semun in its fourth
argument instead of struct semid_ds *. This can cause failures on
powerpc32-linux-gnu.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, and powerpc32-linux-gnu
(qemu system emulation).
The test math/test-nearbyint-except conditions some of its tests on an
EXCEPTION_TESTS call, not not all that need such a condition. This
patch fixes it to use such a conditional for all its tests and to
return 77 (UNSUPPORTED) if none of the floating-point types tested
support exceptions.
Tested for mips64 soft float (where the test previously failed and is
now UNSUPPORTED); also tested for x86_64 to make sure the test still
PASSes in exceptions-supported cases.
* math/test-nearbyint-except.c: Include <stdbool.h>.
(any_supported): New variable.
(TEST_FUNC): Return early if !EXCEPTION_TESTS (FLOAT). Otherwise
set any_supported.
(do_test): Return 77 if no floating-point type supported
exceptions.
Testing for MIPS soft float shows that the issue with NaN payload
preservation applies to soft float as well as hard float: the
sfp-machine.h emulates hardware non-preservation semantics, although
only for the case of two NaN arguments.
This patch duly changes the MIPS math-tests.h to expect such
non-preservation for soft float as well as hard float. The issue in
the NAN2008 case for which I posted
<https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2017-01/msg00034.html>, of sNaN
payloads being preserved but qNaN payloads not being preserved, is not
currently an issue for glibc tests because we don't have any tests
that check for qNaN payloads being preserved by arithmetic, so a
simple __mips_nan2008 conditional suffices without needing compiler
version checks in the __mips_nan2008 case.
Tested for mips64 soft float.
* sysdeps/mips/math-tests.h (SNAN_TESTS_PRESERVE_PAYLOAD): Do not
condition on [__mips_hard_float].
Similar to BZ#19387 and BZ#20971, both i686 memchr optimized assembly
implementations (memchr-sse2-bsf and memchr-sse2) do not handle the
size overflow correctly.
It is shown by the new tests added by commit 3daef2c8ee, where
both implementation fails with size as SIZE_MAX.
This patch uses a similar strategy used on 3daef2c8ee, where
saturared math is used for overflow case.
Checked on i686-linux-gnu.
[BZ #21014]
* sysdeps/i386/i686/multiarch/memchr-sse2-bsf.S (MEMCHR): Avoid overflow

Now that a release branch exists for binutils 2.28, this patch makes
build-many-glibcs.py use that by default in place of 2.27.
* scripts/build-many-glibcs.py (Context.checkout): Default
binutils version to 2.28 branch.
Create a new node for tunables documentation and add notes for the
malloc tunables.
* manual/tunables.texi: New chapter.
* manual/Makefile (chapters): Add it.
* manual/probes.texi (@node): Point to the Tunables chapter.
At the GNU Tools Cauldron 2016, the state of the current tunables
patchset was considered OK with the addition of a way to select the
frontend to be used for the tunables. That is, to avoid being locked
in to one type of frontend initially, it should be possible to build
tunables with a different frontend with something as simple as a
configure switch.
To that effect, this patch enhances the --enable-tunables option to
accept more values than just 'yes' or 'no'. The current frontend (and
default when enable-tunables is 'yes') is called 'valstring', to
select the frontend where a single environment variable is set to a
colon-separated value string. More such frontends can be added in
future.
