Use the setresuid32 system call if it is available, prefering
it over setresuid. If both system calls exist, setresuid
is the 16-bit variant. This fixes a build failure on
sparcv9-linux-gnu.
The current racy approach is to enable asynchronous cancellation
before making the syscall and restore the previous cancellation
type once the syscall returns, and check if cancellation has happen
during the cancellation entrypoint.
As described in BZ#12683, this approach shows 2 problems:
1. Cancellation can act after the syscall has returned from the
kernel, but before userspace saves the return value. It might
result in a resource leak if the syscall allocated a resource or a
side effect (partial read/write), and there is no way to program
handle it with cancellation handlers.
2. If a signal is handled while the thread is blocked at a cancellable
syscall, the entire signal handler runs with asynchronous
cancellation enabled. This can lead to issues if the signal
handler call functions which are async-signal-safe but not
async-cancel-safe.
For the cancellation to work correctly, there are 5 points at which the
cancellation signal could arrive:
[ ... )[ ... )[ syscall ]( ...
1 2 3 4 5
1. Before initial testcancel, e.g. [*... testcancel)
2. Between testcancel and syscall start, e.g. [testcancel...syscall start)
3. While syscall is blocked and no side effects have yet taken
place, e.g. [ syscall ]
4. Same as 3 but with side-effects having occurred (e.g. a partial
read or write).
5. After syscall end e.g. (syscall end...*]
And libc wants to act on cancellation in cases 1, 2, and 3 but not
in cases 4 or 5. For the 4 and 5 cases, the cancellation will eventually
happen in the next cancellable entrypoint without any further external
event.
The proposed solution for each case is:
1. Do a conditional branch based on whether the thread has received
a cancellation request;
2. It can be caught by the signal handler determining that the saved
program counter (from the ucontext_t) is in some address range
beginning just before the "testcancel" and ending with the
syscall instruction.
3. SIGCANCEL can be caught by the signal handler and determine that
the saved program counter (from the ucontext_t) is in the address
range beginning just before "testcancel" and ending with the first
uninterruptable (via a signal) syscall instruction that enters the
kernel.
4. In this case, except for certain syscalls that ALWAYS fail with
EINTR even for non-interrupting signals, the kernel will reset
the program counter to point at the syscall instruction during
signal handling, so that the syscall is restarted when the signal
handler returns. So, from the signal handler's standpoint, this
looks the same as case 2, and thus it's taken care of.
5. For syscalls with side-effects, the kernel cannot restart the
syscall; when it's interrupted by a signal, the kernel must cause
the syscall to return with whatever partial result is obtained
(e.g. partial read or write).
6. The saved program counter points just after the syscall
instruction, so the signal handler won't act on cancellation.
This is similar to 4. since the program counter is past the syscall
instruction.
So The proposed fixes are:
1. Remove the enable_asynccancel/disable_asynccancel function usage in
cancellable syscall definition and instead make them call a common
symbol that will check if cancellation is enabled (__syscall_cancel
at nptl/cancellation.c), call the arch-specific cancellable
entry-point (__syscall_cancel_arch), and cancel the thread when
required.
2. Provide an arch-specific generic system call wrapper function
that contains global markers. These markers will be used in
SIGCANCEL signal handler to check if the interruption has been
called in a valid syscall and if the syscalls has side-effects.
A reference implementation sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscall_cancel.c
is provided. However, the markers may not be set on correct
expected places depending on how INTERNAL_SYSCALL_NCS is
implemented by the architecture. It is expected that all
architectures add an arch-specific implementation.
3. Rewrite SIGCANCEL asynchronous handler to check for both canceling
type and if current IP from signal handler falls between the global
markers and act accordingly.
4. Adjust libc code to replace LIBC_CANCEL_ASYNC/LIBC_CANCEL_RESET to
use the appropriate cancelable syscalls.
5. Adjust 'lowlevellock-futex.h' arch-specific implementations to
provide cancelable futex calls.
Some architectures require specific support on syscall handling:
* On i386 the syscall cancel bridge needs to use the old int80
instruction because the optimized vDSO symbol the resulting PC value
for an interrupted syscall points to an address outside the expected
markers in __syscall_cancel_arch. It has been discussed in LKML [1]
on how kernel could help userland to accomplish it, but afaik
discussion has stalled.
Also, sysenter should not be used directly by libc since its calling
convention is set by the kernel depending of the underlying x86 chip
(check kernel commit 30bfa7b3488bfb1bb75c9f50a5fcac1832970c60).
* mips o32 is the only kABI that requires 7 argument syscall, and to
avoid add a requirement on all architectures to support it, mips
support is added with extra internal defines.

Fix an issue with commit b74121ae4b ("Update.") and prevent a stray
process from being left behind by tst-cancel7 (and also tst-cancelx7,
which is the same test built with '-fexceptions' additionally supplied
to the compiler), which then blocks remote testing until the process has
been killed by hand.
This test case creates a thread that runs an extra copy of the test via
system(3) and using the '--direct' option so that the test wrapper does
not interfere with this instance. This extra copy executes its business
and calls sigsuspend(2) and then never terminates by itself. Instead it
relies on being killed by the main test process directly via a thread
cancellation request or, should that fail, by issuing SIGKILL either at
the conclusion of 'do_test' or by the test driver via 'do_cleanup' where
the test timeout has been hit or the test driver interrupted.
However if the main test process has been instead killed by a signal,
such as due to incorrect execution, before it had a chance to kill the
extra copy of the test case, then the test wrapper will terminate
without running 'do_cleanup' and consequently the extra copy of the test
case will remain forever in its suspended state, and in the remote case
in particular it means that the remote test wrapper will wait forever
for the SSH command to complete.
This has been observed with the 'alpha-linux-gnu' target, where the main
test process triggers SIGSEGV and the test wrapper correctly records:
Didn't expect signal from child: got `Segmentation fault'
in nptl/tst-cancel7.out and terminates, but then the calling SSH command
continues waiting for the remaining process started in the same session
on the remote target to complete.
Address this problem by also registering 'do_cleanup' via atexit(3),
observing that 'support_delete_temp_files' is registered by the test
wrapper before the test initializing function 'do_prepare' is called and
that we call all the functions registered in the reverse of the order in
which they were registered, so it is safe to refer to 'pidfilename' in
'do_cleanup' invoked by exit(3) because by that time temporary files
have not yet been deleted.
A minor inconvenience is that if 'signal_handler' is invoked in the test
wrapper as a result of SIGALRM rather than SIGINT, then 'do_cleanup'
will be called twice, once as a cleanup handler and again by exit(3).
In reality it is harmless though, because issuing SIGKILL is guarded by
a record lock, so if the first call has succeeded in killing the extra
copy of the test case, then the subsequent call will do nothing.

Move the release of the semaphore used to synchronize between an extra
copy of the test run as a separate process and the main test process
until after the PID file has been locked. It is so that if the cleanup
function gets called by the test driver due to premature termination of
the main test process, then the function does not get at the PID file
before it has been locked and conclude that the extra copy of the test
has already terminated. This won't usually happen due to a relatively
high amount of time required to elapse before timeout triggers in the
test driver, but it will change with the next change.
There is still a small time window remaining with this change in place
where the main test process gets killed for some reason between the
extra copy of the test has been already started by pthread_create(3) and
a successful return from the call to sem_wait(3), in which case the
cleanup function can be reached before PID has been written to the PID
file and the file locked. It seems that with the test case structured
as it is now and PID-based process management we have no means to avoid
it.

The old exception handling implementation used function interposition
to replace the dynamic loader implementation (no TLS support) with the
libc implementation (TLS support). This results in problems if the
link order between the dynamic loader and libc is reversed (bug 25486).
The new implementation moves the entire implementation of the
exception handling functions back into the dynamic loader, using
THREAD_GETMEM and THREAD_SETMEM for thread-local data support.
These depends on Hurd support for these macros, added in commit
b65a82e4e7 ("hurd: Add THREAD_GET/SETMEM/_NC").
One small obstacle is that the exception handling facilities are used
before the TCB has been set up, so a check is needed if the TCB is
available. If not, a regular global variable is used to store the
exception handling information.

The implementation is based on scalar Chacha20 with per-thread cache.
It uses getrandom or /dev/urandom as fallback to get the initial entropy,
and reseeds the internal state on every 16MB of consumed buffer.
To improve performance and lower memory consumption the per-thread cache
is allocated lazily on first arc4random functions call, and if the
memory allocation fails getentropy or /dev/urandom is used as fallback.
The cache is also cleared on thread exit iff it was initialized (so if
arc4random is not called it is not touched).
Although it is lock-free, arc4random is still not async-signal-safe
(the per thread state is not updated atomically).
The ChaCha20 implementation is based on RFC8439 [1], omitting the final
XOR of the keystream with the plaintext because the plaintext is a
stream of zeros. This strategy is similar to what OpenBSD arc4random
does.
The arc4random_uniform is based on previous work by Florian Weimer,
where the algorithm is based on Jérémie Lumbroso paper Optimal Discrete
Uniform Generation from Coin Flips, and Applications (2013) [2], who
credits Donald E. Knuth and Andrew C. Yao, The complexity of nonuniform
random number generation (1976), for solving the general case.
The main advantage of this method is the that the unit of randomness is not
the uniform random variable (uint32_t), but a random bit. It optimizes the
internal buffer sampling by initially consuming a 32-bit random variable
and then sampling byte per byte. Depending of the upper bound requested,
it might lead to better CPU utilization.
