No bug. This commit optimizes strlen-evex.S. The
optimizations are mostly small things but they add up to roughly
10-30% performance improvement for strlen. The results for strnlen are
bit more ambiguous. test-strlen, test-strnlen, test-wcslen, and
test-wcsnlen are all passing.

No Bug. This commit expanding the range of tests / benchmarks for
memmove and memcpy. The test expansion is mostly in the vein of
increasing the maximum size, increasing the number of unique
alignments tested, and testing both source < destination and vice
versa. The benchmark expansaion is just to increase the number of
unique alignments. test-memcpy, test-memccpy, test-mempcpy,
test-memmove, and tst-memmove-overflow all pass.

So that text_set_element/data_set_element/bss_set_element defined
variables will be retained by the linker.
Note: 'used' and 'retain' are orthogonal: 'used' makes sure the variable
will not be optimized out; 'retain' prevents section garbage collection
if the linker support SHF_GNU_RETAIN.
GNU ld 2.37 and LLD 13 will support -z start-stop-gc which allow C
identifier name sections to be GCed even if there are live
__start_/__stop_ references.
Without the change, there are some static linking problems, e.g.
_IO_cleanup (libio/genops.c) may be discarded by ld --gc-sections, so
stdout is not flushed on exit.
Note: GCC may warning 'retain' attribute ignored while __has_attribute(retain)
is 1 (https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=99587).

No Bug. This commit updates the large memcpy case (no overlap). The
update is to perform memcpy on either 2 or 4 contiguous pages at
once. This 1) helps to alleviate the affects of false memory aliasing
when destination and source have a close 4k alignment and 2) In most
cases and for most DRAM units is a modestly more efficient access
pattern. These changes are a clear performance improvement for
VEC_SIZE =16/32, though more ambiguous for VEC_SIZE=64. test-memcpy,
test-memccpy, test-mempcpy, test-memmove, and tst-memmove-overflow all
pass.

Some registers that can be clobbered by the kernel during a syscall are not
listed on the clobbers list in sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/sysdep.h.
For syscalls using sc:
- XER is zeroed by the kernel on exit
For syscalls using scv:
- XER is zeroed by the kernel on exit
- Different from the sc case, most CR fields can be clobbered (according to
the ELF ABI and the Linux kernel's syscall ABI for powerpc
(linux/Documentation/powerpc/syscall64-abi.rst)
The same should apply to vsyscalls, which effectively execute a function call
but are not currently adding these registers as clobbers either.
These are likely not causing issues today, but they should be added to the
clobbers list just in case things change on the kernel side in the future.

Lazy tlsdesc relocation is racy because the static tls optimization and

Another issue is that ld auditing ignores DT_BIND_NOW and thus tries to
relocate tlsdesc lazily, but that does not work in a BIND_NOW module
due to missing DT_TLSDESC_PLT. Unconditionally relocating tlsdesc at
load time fixes this bug 27721 too.
map is not valid to access here because it can be freed by a concurrent
dlclose: during tls access (via __tls_get_addr) _dl_update_slotinfo is
called without holding dlopen locks. So don't check the modid of map.
The map == 0 and map != 0 code paths can be shared (avoiding the dtv
resize in case of map == 0 is just an optimization: larger dtv than
necessary would be fine too).

That commit ensures allocation in _dl_add_to_slotinfo happens before

second time actual dtv updates are done which then cannot fail).

Since Linux 4.13, kernel limits the maximum command line arguments
length to 6 MiB [1]. Normally the limit is still quarter of the maximum
stack size but if that limit exceeds 6 MiB it's clamped down.
glibc's __sysconf implementation for Linux platform is not aware of
this limitation and for stack sizes of over 24 MiB it returns higher
ARG_MAX than Linux will actually accept. This can be verified by
executing the following application on Linux 4.13 or newer:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <sys/resource.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(void) {
const struct rlimit rlim = { 40 * 1024 * 1024,
40 * 1024 * 1024 };
if (setrlimit(RLIMIT_STACK, &rlim) < 0) {
perror("setrlimit: RLIMIT_STACK");
return 1;
}
printf("ARG_MAX : %8ld\n", sysconf(_SC_ARG_MAX));
printf("63 * 100 KiB: %8ld\n", 63L * 100 * 1024);
printf("6 MiB : %8ld\n", 6L * 1024 * 1024);
char str[100 * 1024], *argv[64], *envp[1];
memset(&str, 'A', sizeof str);
str[sizeof str - 1] = '\0';
for (size_t i = 0; i < sizeof argv / sizeof *argv - 1; ++i) {
argv[i] = str;
}
argv[sizeof argv / sizeof *argv - 1] = envp[0] = 0;
execve("/bin/true", argv, envp);
perror("execve");
return 1;
}
On affected systems the program will report ARG_MAX as 10 MiB but
despite that executing /bin/true with a bit over 6 MiB of command line
arguments will fail with E2BIG error. Expected result is that ARG_MAX
is reported as 6 MiB.
Update the __sysconf function to clamp ARG_MAX value to 6 MiB if it
would otherwise exceed it. This resolves bug #25305 which was market
WONTFIX as suggested solution was to cap ARG_MAX at 128 KiB.
As an aside and point of comparison, bionic (a libc implementation for
Android systems) decided to resolve this issue by always returning 128
KiB ignoring any potential xargs regressions [2].
On older kernels this results in returning overly conservative value
but that's a safer option than being aggressive and returning invalid
value on recent systems. It's also worth noting that at this point
all supported Linux releases have the 6 MiB barrier so only someone
running an unsupported kernel version would get incorrectly truncated
result.

The commit 2433d39b69, which added time64 support to select, changed
the function to use __NR_pselect6 (or __NR_pelect6_time64) on all
architectures. However, on architectures where the symbol was
implemented with __NR_select the kernel normalizes the passed timeout
instead of return EINVAL. For instance, the input timeval
{ 0, 5000000 } is interpreted as { 5, 0 }.
And as indicated by BZ #27651, this semantic seems to be expected
and changing it results in some performance issues (most likely
the program does not check the return code and keeps issuing
select with unormalized tv_usec argument).
To avoid a different semantic depending whether which syscall the
architecture used to issue, select now always normalize the timeout
input. This is a slight change for some ABIs (for instance aarch64).
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.
When parse_tunables tries to erase a tunable marked as SXID_ERASE for
setuid programs, it ends up setting the envvar string iterator
incorrectly, because of which it may parse the next tunable
incorrectly. Given that currently the implementation allows malformed
and unrecognized tunables pass through, it may even allow SXID_ERASE
tunables to go through.
This change revamps the SXID_ERASE implementation so that:
- Only valid tunables are written back to the tunestr string, because
of which children of SXID programs will only inherit a clean list of
identified tunables that are not SXID_ERASE.
- Unrecognized tunables get scrubbed off from the environment and
subsequently from the child environment.
- This has the side-effect that a tunable that is not identified by
the setxid binary, will not be passed on to a non-setxid child even
if the child could have identified that tunable. This may break
applications that expect this behaviour but expecting such tunables
to cross the SXID boundary is wrong.
