Current implementation of tunables does not set arena_max and arena_test
values. Any value provided by glibc.malloc.arena_max and
glibc.malloc.arena_test parameters is ignored.
These tunables have minval value set to 1 (see elf/dl-tunables.list file)
and undefined maxval value. In that case default value (which is 0. see
scripts/gen-tunables.awk) is being used to set maxval.
For instance, generated tunable_list[] entry for arena_max is:
(gdb) p *cur
$1 = {name = 0x7ffff7df6217 "glibc.malloc.arena_max",
type = {type_code = TUNABLE_TYPE_SIZE_T, min = 1, max = 0},
val = {numval = 0, strval = 0x0}, initialized = false,
security_level = TUNABLE_SECLEVEL_SXID_IGNORE,
env_alias = 0x7ffff7df622e "MALLOC_ARENA_MAX"}
As a result, any value of glibc.malloc.arena_max is ignored by
TUNABLE_SET_VAL_IF_VALID_RANGE macro
__type min = (__cur)->type.min; <- initialized to 1
__type max = (__cur)->type.max; <- initialized to 0!
if (min == max) <- false
{
min = __default_min;
max = __default_max;
}
if ((__type) (__val) >= min && (__type) (val) <= max) <- false
{
(__cur)->val.numval = val;
(__cur)->initialized = true;
}
Assigning correct min/max values at a build time fixes a problem.
Plus, a bit of optimization: Setting of default min/max values for the
given type at a run time might be eliminated.
* elf/dl-tunables.c (do_tunable_update_val): Range checking fix.
* scripts/gen-tunables.awk: Set unspecified minval and/or maxval
values to correct default value for given type.
On Linux/i386, there are 3 ways to make a system call:
1. call *%gs:SYSINFO_OFFSET. This requires TLS initialization.
2. call *_dl_sysinfo. This requires relocation of _dl_sysinfo.
3. int $0x80. This is slower than #2 and #3, but works everywhere.
When an object file is compiled with PIC, #1 is prefered since it is
faster than #3 and doesn't require relocation of _dl_sysinfo. For
dynamic executables, ld.so initializes TLS. However, for static
executables, before TLS is initialized by __libc_setup_tls, #3 should
be used for system calls.
This patch adds <startup.h> which defines _startup_fatal and defaults
it to __libc_fatal. It replaces __libc_fatal with _startup_fatal in
static executables where it is called before __libc_setup_tls is called.
This header file is included in all files containing functions which are
called before __libc_setup_tls is called. On Linux/i386, when PIE is
enabled by default, _startup_fatal is turned into ABORT_INSTRUCTION and
I386_USE_SYSENTER is defined to 0 so that "int $0x80" is used for system
calls before __libc_setup_tls is called.
Tested on i686 and x86-64. Without this patch, all statically-linked
tests will fail on i686 when the compiler defaults to -fPIE.

The function maybe_enable_malloc_check, which is called by
__tunables_init, calls __access_noerrno. It isn't problem when
symbol is is in ld.so, which has a special version of __access_noerrno
without stack protector. But when glibc is built with stack protector,
maybe_enable_malloc_check in libc.a can't call the regular version of
__access_noerrno with stack protector.
This patch changes how Linux defines the __access_noerrno to be an
inline call instead and thus preventing defining different build
rules for ld/static and shared.

Add a new tunable (glibc.tune.cpu) to override CPU identification on
aarch64. This is useful in two cases: one where it is desirable to

where the underlying kernel does not support emulation of MRS to get
the MIDR of the CPU.

The TUNABLE_SET_VALUE and family of macros (and my later attempt to
add a TUNABLE_GET) never quite went together very well because the
overall interface was not clearly defined. This patch is an attempt
to do just that.
This patch consolidates the API to two simple sets of macros,
TUNABLE_GET* and TUNABLE_SET*. If TUNABLE_NAMESPACE is defined,
TUNABLE_GET takes just the tunable name, type and a (optionally NULL)
callback function to get the value of the tunable. The callback
function, if non-NULL, is called if the tunable was externally set
(i.e. via GLIBC_TUNABLES or any future mechanism). For example:
val = TUNABLE_GET (check, int32_t, check_callback)
returns the value of the glibc.malloc.check tunable (assuming
TUNABLE_NAMESPACE is set to malloc) as an int32_t into VAL after
calling check_callback.
Likewise, TUNABLE_SET can be used to set the value of the tunable,
although this is currently possible only in the dynamic linker before
it relocates itself. For example:
TUNABLE_SET (check, int32_t, 2)
will set glibc.malloc.check to 2. Of course, this is not possible
since we set (or read) glibc.malloc.check long after it is relocated.
To access or set a tunable outside of TUNABLE_NAMESPACE, use the
TUNABLE_GET_FULL and TUNABLE_SET_FULL macros, which have the following
prototype:
TUNABLE_GET_FULL (glibc, tune, hwcap_mask, uint64_t, NULL)
TUNABLE_SET_FULL (glibc, tune, hwcap_mask, uint64_t, 0xffff)
In future the tunable list may get split into mutable and immutable
tunables where mutable tunables can be modified by the library and
userspace after relocation as well and TUNABLE_SET will be more useful
than it currently is. However whenever we actually do that split, we
will have to ensure that the mutable tunables are protected with
locks.

Recognize the uint64_t type in addition to the current int32_t and
size_t. This allows addition of tunables of uint64_t types. In
addition to adding the uint64_t type, this patch also consolidates
validation and reading of integer types in tunables.
One notable change is that of overflow computation in
tunables_strtoul. The function was lifted from __internal_strtoul,
but it does not need the boundary condition check (i.e. result ==
ULONG_MAX) since it does not need to set errno. As a result the check
can be simplified, which I have now done.
* elf/dl-tunable-types.h (tunable_type_code_t): New type
TUNABLE_TYPE_UINT_64.
* elf/dl-tunables.c (tunables_strtoul): Return uint64_t.

posix/wordexp-test.c used libc-internal.h for PTR_ALIGN_DOWN; similar
to what was done with libc-diag.h, I have split the definitions of
cast_to_integer, ALIGN_UP, ALIGN_DOWN, PTR_ALIGN_UP, and PTR_ALIGN_DOWN
to a new header, libc-pointer-arith.h.
It then occurred to me that the remaining declarations in libc-internal.h
are mostly to do with early initialization, and probably most of the
files including it, even in the core code, don't need it anymore. Indeed,
only 19 files actually need what remains of libc-internal.h. 23 others
need libc-diag.h instead, and 12 need libc-pointer-arith.h instead.
No file needs more than one of them, and 16 don't need any of them!
So, with this patch, libc-internal.h stops including libc-diag.h as
well as losing the pointer arithmetic macros, and all including files
are adjusted.
* include/libc-pointer-arith.h: New file. Define
cast_to_integer, ALIGN_UP, ALIGN_DOWN, PTR_ALIGN_UP, and
PTR_ALIGN_DOWN here.

The code to set value passed a tunable_val_t, which when cast to
int32_t on big-endian gives the wrong value. Instead, use
tunable_val_t.numval instead, which can then be safely cast into
int32_t.
Florian Weimer pointed out that we have three different kinds of
environment variables (and hence tunables):
1. Variables that are removed for setxid processes
2. Variables that are ignored in setxid processes but is passed on to
child processes
3. Variables that are passed on to child processes all the time
Tunables currently only does (2) and (3) when it should be doing (1)
for MALLOC_CHECK_. This patch enhances the is_secure flag in tunables
to an enum value that can specify which of the above three categories
the tunable (and its envvar alias) belongs to.
The default is for tunables to be in (1). Hence, all of the malloc
tunables barring MALLOC_CHECK_ are explicitly specified to belong to
category (2). There were discussions around abolishing category (2)
completely but we can do that as a separate exercise in 2.26.
Tested on x86_64 to verify that there are no regressions.

The condition when the value of an envvar is empty (not just '\0'),

providing the test case. Verified on x86_64.

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.

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.

variables inside glibc as switches to users. tunables/README has
instructions for glibc developers to add new tunables.
