Previously, getrandom would, each time it's called, traverse the file
system to find /dev/urandom, fetch some random data from it, then throw
away that port. This is quite slow, while calls to getrandom are
genrally expected to be fast.
Additionally, this means that getrandom can not work when /dev/urandom
is unavailable, such as inside a chroot that lacks one. User programs
expect calls to getrandom to work inside a chroot if they first call
getrandom outside of the chroot.
In particular, this is known to break the OpenSSH server, and in that
case the issue is exacerbated by the API of arc4random, which prevents
it from properly reporting errors, forcing glibc to abort on failure.
This causes sshd to just die once it tries to generate a random number.
Caching the random server port, in a manner similar to how socket
server ports are cached, both improves the performance and works around
the chroot issue.
Tested on i686-gnu with the following program:
pthread_barrier_t barrier;
void *worker(void*) {
pthread_barrier_wait(&barrier);
uint32_t sum = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < 10000; i++) {
sum += arc4random();
}
return (void *)(uintptr_t) sum;
}
int main() {
pthread_t threads[THREAD_COUNT];
pthread_barrier_init(&barrier, NULL, THREAD_COUNT);
for (int i = 0; i < THREAD_COUNT; i++) {
pthread_create(&threads[i], NULL, worker, NULL);
}
for (int i = 0; i < THREAD_COUNT; i++) {
void *retval;
pthread_join(threads[i], &retval);
printf("Thread %i: %lu\n", i, (unsigned long)(uintptr_t) retval);
}
In my totally unscientific benchmark, with this patch, this completes
in about 7 seconds, whereas previously it took about 50 seconds. This
program was also used to test that getrandom () doesn't explode if the
random server dies, but instead reopens the /dev/urandom anew. I have
also verified that with this patch, OpenSSH can once again accept
connections properly.

lld does not implement all the linker optimization to avoid the GOT
relocation as done by binutils (bfd/elf32-i386.c:elf_i386_convert_load_reloc).
The current 'movl main@GOT(%ebx), %eax' will then create a GOT
relocation when building with lld, which make static-pie status to
not being able to start the provided main function.
The change uses a __wrap_main local symbol, which in turn calls main
(similar as used by aarch64 and s390x).
Checked on i686-linux-gnu with binutils and lld.

This patch fixes two problems with audit:
1. The DL_OFFSET_RV_VPCS offset was mixed up with DL_OFFSET_RG_VPCS,
resulting in x2 register value nulling in RG structure.
2. We need to preserve the x8 register before function call, but
don't have to save it's new value and restore it before return.
Anyway the final restore was using OFFSET_RV instead of OFFSET_RG value
which is wrong (althoug doesn't affect anything).

Currently glibc uses in_time_t_range to detects time_t overflow,
and if it occurs fallbacks to 64 bit syscall version.
The function name is confusing because internally time_t might be
either 32 bits or 64 bits (depending on __TIMESIZE).
This patch refactors the in_time_t_range by replacing it with
in_int32_t_range for the case to check if the 64 bit time_t syscall
should be used.
The in_time_t range is used to detect overflow of the
syscall return value.

Use __builtin_{fma, fmaf} to implement function {fma, fmaf} instead of
the generic implementation.
* sysdeps/loongarch/fpu/math-use-builtins-fma.h: New file.
Old applications pass __IPC_64 as part of the command argument because
old glibc did not check for unknown commands, and passed through the
arguments directly to the kernel, without adding __IPC_64.
Applications need to continue doing that for old glibc compatibility,
so this commit enables this approach in current glibc.
For msgctl and shmctl, if no translation is required, make
direct system calls, as we did before the time64 changes. If
translation is required, mask __IPC_64 from the command argument.
For semctl, the union-in-vararg argument handling means that
translation is needed on all architectures.

single basic-block (the space to add the extra branch without
changing code size is bought with the above change).
