libpthread_nonshared.a is unused after this, so remove it from the
build.
There is no ABI impact because pthread_atfork was implemented using
__register_atfork in libc even before this change.
pthread_atfork has to be a weak alias because pthread_* names are not
reserved in libc.

Current implementation (sysdeps/nptl/fork.c) replicates the atfork
handlers list backward to invoke the child handlers after fork/clone
syscall.
The internal atfork handlers is implemented as a single-linked list
so a lock-free algorithm can be used, trading fork mulithread call
performance for some code complexity and dynamic stack allocation
(since the backwards list should not fail).
This patch refactor it to use a dynarary instead of a linked list.
It simplifies the external variables need to be exported and also
the internal atfork handler member definition.
The downside is a serialization of fork call in multithread, since to
operate on the dynarray the internal lock should be used. However
as noted by Florian, it already acquires external locks for malloc
and libio so it is already hitting some lock contention. Besides,
posix_spawn should be faster and more scalable to run external programs
in multithread environments.

An elided mutex don't fail destroy. Elision was disabled for the
test nptl/tst-mutex8 in nptl/Makefile. Thus we can run tests which
destroy a locked mutex.
As elision is only disabled for tst-mutex8, the variants
tst-mutex8-static, tst-mutexpi8 and tst-mutexpi8-static are still
failing if lock elision is enabled.
This patch adds a runtime check, if the checked type of mutex will
be elided. This check is using TUNABLE_GET_FULL to determine if
elision is enabled via the tunables framework.
The pthread_mutex_destroy tests are only run if we dont't assume an
elided mutex.
This way, we can run the whole glibc testsuite with or without enabled
lock elision.
ChangeLog:
* nptl/Makefile (tst-mutex8-ENV): Delete.
* nptl/tst-mutex8.c (check_type):
Add runtime check if mutex will be elided.
In commit cba595c350 and commit
f81ddabffd, ABI compatibility with
applications was broken by increasing the size of the on-stack
allocated __pthread_unwind_buf_t beyond the oringal size.
Applications only have the origianl space available for
__pthread_unwind_register, and __pthread_unwind_next to use,
any increase in the size of __pthread_unwind_buf_t causes these
functions to write beyond the original structure into other
on-stack variables leading to segmentation faults in common
applications like vlc. The only workaround is to version those
functions which operate on the old sized objects, but this must
happen in glibc 2.28.
Thank you to Andrew Senkevich, H.J. Lu, and Aurelien Jarno, for
submitting reports and tracking the issue down.
The commit reverts the above mentioned commits and testing on
x86_64 shows that the ABI compatibility is restored. A tst-cleanup1
regression test linked with an older glibc now passes when run
with the newly built glibc. Previously a tst-cleanup1 linked with
an older glibc would segfault when run with an affected glibc build.
Tested on x86_64 with no regressions.

I verified that without the guard accounting change in commit
630f4cc3aa (Fix stack guard size
accounting) and RTLD_NOW for libgcc_s introduced by commit
f993b87540 (nptl: Open libgcc.so with
RTLD_NOW during pthread_cancel), the tst-minstack-cancel test fails on
an AVX-512F machine. tst-minstack-exit still passes, and either of
the mentioned commit by itself frees sufficient stack space to make
tst-minstack-cancel pass, too.

All binaries use TLS and thus need a properly set up TCB, so we can
simply return its address directly, instead of forwarding to the
libpthread implementation from libc.
For versioned symbols, the dynamic linker checks that the soname matches
the name supplied by the link editor, so a compatibility symbol in
libpthread is needed.
To avoid linking against the libpthread function in all cases, we would
have to bump the symbol version of libpthread in libc.so and supply a
compat symbol. This commit does not do that because the function
implementation is so small, so the overhead by two active copies of the
same function might well be smaller than the increase in symbol table
size.
On x86, padding in struct __jmp_buf_tag is used for shadow stack pointer
to support shadow stack in Intel Control-flow Enforcemen Technology.
Since the cancel_jmp_buf array is passed to setjmp and longjmp by
casting it to pointer to struct __jmp_buf_tag, it should be as large
as struct __jmp_buf_tag. Otherwise when shadow stack is enabled,
setjmp and longjmp will write and read beyond cancel_jmp_buf when saving
and restoring shadow stack pointer.
This patch adds bits/types/__cancel_jmp_buf_tag.h to define struct
__cancel_jmp_buf_tag so that Linux/x86 can add saved_mask to
cancel_jmp_buf.

This patch adds several new tunables to control the behavior of
elision on supported platforms[1]. Since elision now depends
on tunables, we should always *compile* with elision enabled,
and leave the code disabled, but available for runtime
selection. This gives us *much* better compile-time testing of
the existing code to avoid bit-rot[2].
Tested on ppc, ppc64, ppc64le, s390x and x86_64.

Various subdirectories of glibc include Banner files to put some text
in the output of executing libc.so.6, under "Available extensions".
Some of those subdirectories (e.g. crypt) may originally have been
add-ons (and so optional, so a particular glibc build might or might
not have included them), but except for libidn they aren't now (or if
only included in some builds, in the case of soft-fp, the inclusion
depends on the architecture for which glibc is configured rather than
having any glibc configuration for which it's an optional feature),
and it doesn't seem useful for the libc.so.6 output to call out a few
features like that.

65810f0ef0 fixed a robust mutex bug but
introduced BZ 21778: if the CAS used to try to acquire a lock fails, the
expected value is not updated, which breaks other cases in the loce
acquisition loop. The fix is to simply update the expected value with
the value returned by the CAS, which ensures that behavior is as if the
first case with the CAS never happened (if the CAS fails).
This is a regression introduced in the last release.
Tested on x86_64, i686, ppc64, ppc64le, s390x, aarch64, armv7hl.
Without this fix, the rwlock can fail to execute the explicit hand-over
in certain cases (e.g., empty critical sections that switch quickly between
read and write phases). This can then lead to errors in how __wrphase_futex
is accessed, which in turn can lead to deadlocks.
Single thread optimization is valid if at thread creation time the
optimization can be disabled. This is in principle true for all
stream objects that user code can access (and thus needs locking),
using the same internal list as fflush(0) uses. However in glibc
open_memstream is not on that list (BZ 21735) so the optimization
has to be disabled.

This patch adds a new build module called 'testsuite'.
IS_IN (testsuite) implies _ISOMAC, as do IS_IN_build and __cplusplus
(which means several ad-hoc tests for __cplusplus can go away).
libc-symbols.h now suppresses almost all of *itself* when _ISOMAC is
defined; in particular, _ISOMAC mode does not get config.h
automatically anymore.
There are still quite a few tests that need to see internal gunk of
one variety or another. For them, we now have 'tests-internal' and
'test-internal-extras'; files in this category will still be compiled
with MODULE_NAME=nonlib, and everything proceeds as it always has.
The bulk of this patch is moving tests from 'tests' to
'tests-internal'. There is also 'tests-static-internal', which has
the same effect on files in 'tests-static', and 'modules-names-tests',
which has the *inverse* effect on files in 'modules-names' (it's
inverted because most of the things in modules-names are *not* tests).
For both of these, the file must appear in *both* the new variable and
the old one.
There is also now a special case for when libc-symbols.h is included
without MODULE_NAME being defined at all. (This happens during the
creation of libc-modules.h, and also when preprocessing Versions
files.) When this happens, IS_IN is set to be always false and
_ISOMAC is *not* defined, which was the status quo, but now it's
explicit.
The remaining changes to C source files in this patch seemed likely to
cause problems in the absence of the main change. They should be
relatively self-explanatory. In a few cases I duplicated a definition
from an internal header rather than move the test to tests-internal;
this was a judgement call each time and I'm happy to change those
however reviewers feel is more appropriate.
* Makerules: New subdir configuration variables 'tests-internal'
and 'test-internal-extras'. Test files in these categories will
still be compiled with MODULE_NAME=nonlib. Test files in the
existing categories (tests, xtests, test-srcs, test-extras) are
now compiled with MODULE_NAME=testsuite.
New subdir configuration variable 'modules-names-tests'. Files
which are in both 'modules-names' and 'modules-names-tests' will
be compiled with MODULE_NAME=testsuite instead of
MODULE_NAME=extramodules.

false, and don't define _ISOMAC.
If any of IS_IN (testsuite), IS_IN_build, or __cplusplus are
true, define _ISOMAC and suppress everything else in this file,
starting with the inclusion of config.h.
Do check for inappropriate definitions of __OPTIMIZE__ and
__FAST_MATH__ here, but only if _ISOMAC is not defined.
Correct some out-of-date commentary.

The commit documents the ownership rules around 'struct pthread' and
when a thread can read or write to the descriptor. With those ownership
rules in place it becomes obvious that pd->stopped_start should not be
touched in several of the paths during thread startup, particularly so
for detached threads. In the case of detached threads, between the time
the thread is created by the OS kernel and the creating thread checks
pd->stopped_start, the detached thread might have already exited and the
memory for pd unmapped. As a regression test we add a simple test which
exercises this exact case by quickly creating detached threads with
large enough stacks to ensure the thread stack cache is bypassed and the
stacks are unmapped. Before the fix the testcase segfaults, after the
fix it works correctly and completes without issue.

lll_robust_unlock on i386 and x86_64 first sets the futex word to
FUTEX_WAITERS|0 before calling __lll_unlock_wake, which will set the
futex word to 0. If the thread is killed between these steps, then the
futex word will be FUTEX_WAITERS|0, and the kernel (at least current
upstream) will not set it to FUTEX_OWNER_DIED|FUTEX_WAITERS because 0 is
not equal to the TID of the crashed thread.
The lll_robust_lock assembly code on i386 and x86_64 is not prepared to
deal with this case because the fastpath tries to only CAS 0 to TID and
not FUTEX_WAITERS|0 to TID; the slowpath simply waits until it can CAS 0
to TID or the futex_word has the FUTEX_OWNER_DIED bit set.
This issue is fixed by removing the custom x86 assembly code and using
the generic C code instead. However, instead of adding more duplicate
code to the custom x86 lowlevellock.h, the code of the lll_robust* functions
is inlined into the single call sites that exist for each of these functions
in the pthread_mutex_* functions. The robust mutex paths in the latter
have been slightly reorganized to make them simpler.
This patch is meant to be easy to backport, so C11-style atomics are not
used.

This is a new implementation for condition variables, required
after http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=609 to fix bug 13165. In
essence, we need to be stricter in which waiters a signal or broadcast
is required to wake up; this couldn't be solved using the old algorithm.
ISO C++ made a similar clarification, so this also fixes a bug in
current libstdc++, for example.
We can't use the old algorithm anymore because futexes do not guarantee
to wake in FIFO order. Thus, when we wake, we can't simply let any
waiter grab a signal, but we need to ensure that one of the waiters
happening before the signal is woken up. This is something the previous
algorithm violated (see bug 13165).
There's another issue specific to condvars: ABA issues on the underlying
futexes. Unlike mutexes that have just three states, or semaphores that
have no tokens or a limited number of them, the state of a condvar is
the *order* of the waiters. A waiter on a semaphore can grab a token
whenever one is available; a condvar waiter must only consume a signal
if it is eligible to do so as determined by the relative order of the
waiter and the signal.
Therefore, this new algorithm maintains two groups of waiters: Those
eligible to consume signals (G1), and those that have to wait until
previous waiters have consumed signals (G2). Once G1 is empty, G2
becomes the new G1. 64b counters are used to avoid ABA issues.
This condvar doesn't yet use a requeue optimization (ie, on a broadcast,
waking just one thread and requeueing all others on the futex of the
mutex supplied by the program). I don't think doing the requeue is
necessarily the right approach (but I haven't done real measurements
yet):
* If a program expects to wake many threads at the same time and make
that scalable, a condvar isn't great anyway because of how it requires
waiters to operate mutually exclusive (due to the mutex usage). Thus, a
thundering herd problem is a scalability problem with or without the
optimization. Using something like a semaphore might be more
appropriate in such a case.
* The scalability problem is actually at the mutex side; the condvar
could help (and it tries to with the requeue optimization), but it
should be the mutex who decides how that is done, and whether it is done
at all.
* Forcing all but one waiter into the kernel-side wait queue of the
mutex prevents/avoids the use of lock elision on the mutex. Thus, it
prevents the only cure against the underlying scalability problem
inherent to condvars.
* If condvars use short critical sections (ie, hold the mutex just to
check a binary flag or such), which they should do ideally, then forcing
all those waiter to proceed serially with kernel-based hand-off (ie,
futex ops in the mutex' contended state, via the futex wait queues) will
be less efficient than just letting a scalable mutex implementation take
care of it. Our current mutex impl doesn't employ spinning at all, but
if critical sections are short, spinning can be much better.
* Doing the requeue stuff requires all waiters to always drive the mutex
into the contended state. This leads to each waiter having to call
futex_wake after lock release, even if this wouldn't be necessary.

The value of CPPFLAGS provided by the environment may have optimizations
that interfere with the pretty printer test requirements. To override
such optimizations the pretty printer tests must also specify CPPFLAGS.
The existing pretty printer tests are fixed and the
README.pretty-printers is updated with the new requirement.
This patch adds pretty printers for the following NPTL types:
- pthread_mutex_t
- pthread_mutexattr_t
- pthread_cond_t
- pthread_condattr_t
- pthread_rwlock_t
- pthread_rwlockattr_t
To load the pretty printers into your gdb session, do the following:
python
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, '/path/to/glibc/build/nptl/pretty-printers')
end
source /path/to/glibc/source/pretty-printers/nptl-printers.py
You can check which printers are registered and enabled by issuing the
'info pretty-printer' gdb command. Printers should trigger automatically when
trying to print a variable of one of the types mentioned above.
The printers are architecture-independent, and were tested on an AMD64 running
Ubuntu 14.04 and an x86 VM running Fedora 24.
In order to work, the printers need to know the values of various flags that
are scattered throughout pthread.h and pthreadP.h as enums and #defines. Since
replicating these constants in the printers file itself would create a
maintenance burden, I wrote a script called gen-py-const.awk that Makerules uses
to extract the constants. This script is pretty much the same as gen-as-const.awk,
except it doesn't cast the constant values to 'long' and is thorougly documented.
The constants need only to be enumerated in a .pysym file, which is then referenced
by a Make variable called gen-py-const-headers.
As for the install directory, I discussed this with Mike Frysinger and Siddhesh
Poyarekar, and we agreed that it can be handled in a separate patch, and shouldn't
block merging of this one.
In addition, I've written a series of test cases for the pretty printers.
Each lock type (mutex, condvar and rwlock) has two test programs, one for itself
and other for its related 'attributes' object. Each test program in turn has a
PExpect-based Python script that drives gdb and compares its output to the
expected printer's. The tests run on the glibc host, which is assumed to have
both gdb and PExpect; if either is absent the tests will fail with code 77
(UNSUPPORTED). For cross-testing you should use cross-test-ssh.sh as test-wrapper.
I've tested the printers on both native builds and a cross build using a Beaglebone
Black running Debian, with the build system's filesystem shared with the board
through NFS.
Finally, I've written a README that explains all this and more.

This patch consolidates all Linux lseek/lseek64/llseek implementation
in on on sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/lseek{64}.c. It also removes the llseek
file and instead consolidate the LFS lseek implementation on lseek64.c
as for other LFS symbols implementations.
The general idea is:
- lseek: ABIs that not define __OFF_T_MATCHES_OFF64_T will preferable
use __NR__llseek if kernel supports it, otherwise they will use __NR_lseek.
ABIs that defines __OFF_T_MATCHES_OFF64_T won't produce any symbol.
- lseek64: ABIs with __OFF_T_MATCHES_OFF64_T will preferable use __NR_lseek
(since it will use 64-bit arguments without low/high splitting) and
__NR__llseek if __NR_lseek is not defined (for some ILP32 ports).
- llseek: files will be removed and symbols will be aliased ot lseek64.
ABI without __OFF_T_MATCHES_OFF64_T and without __NR_llseek (basically MIPS64n32
so far) are covered by building lseek with off_t as expected and lseek64
using __NR_lseek (as expected for off64_t being passed using 64-bit registers).
For this consolidation I mantained the x32 assembly specific implementation
because to correctly fix this it would required both the x32 fix for
{INLINE,INTERNAL}_SYSCALL [1] and a wrapper to correctly subscribe it to
return 64 bits instead of default 32 bits (as for times). It could a future
cleanup.
It is based on my previous {INTERNAL,INLINE}_SYSCALL_CALL macro [2],
although it is mainly for simplification.
Tested on x86_64, i686, aarch64, armhf, and powerpc64le.

Nothing depends on the PTW macro anymore, so the mechanism to define
PTW for recompliations of libc routines is no longer needed. The
source files are still recompiled for the nptl directory, just without
the “ptw-” prefix.
(Reducing the number of pattern rules in sysd-rules is critical for
improving make performance.)
Instead, call malloc and explicitly align the pointer.
There is no external location to store the original (unaligned)
pointer, and this commit increases the allocation size to store
the pointer at a fixed location relative to the TCB pointer.
The manual alignment means that some space goes unused which
was previously made available for subsequent allocations.
However, in the TLS_DTV_AT_TP case, the manual alignment code
avoids aligning the pre-TCB to the TLS block alignment. (Even
while using memalign, the allocation had some unused padding
in front.)
This concludes the removal of memalign calls from the TLS code,
and the new tst-tls3-malloc test verifies that only core malloc
routines are used.
This reverts commit 62ce266b0b.
The change is not mature enough because it needs the following fixes:
1. Redirect test output to a file like other tests
2. Eliminate the need to use a .gdbinit because distributions will
break without it. I should have caught that but I was in too much
of a hurry to get the patch in :/
3. Feature checking during configure to determine things like minimum
required gdb version, python-pexpect version, etc. to make sure
that tests work correctly.
