The kernel from 2.3.31 on supports the rt_tgsigqueueinfo syscall.
Use it to implement the non-standard extension which, like
sigqueue, can pass additional data to the receiving thread.
Old binutils don't provide IFUNC and don't generate the section start/end
symbols we expect. At least for now only add the initializer code for
static IFUNC relocations if multi-arch support is requested.
The test to call the indirect function now includes a subtest to
checked whether the symbol is defined. When coming to that point
this is almost always the case. The test for STT_GNU_IFUNC on the
other hand rarely is true. Move it to the front means we don't have
to perform the second test unless really necessary.
SO far Intel and AMD use exactly the same bits meaning the same
things in CPUID index 1. Simplify the code. Should an architecture
come along which doesn't use the same semantics then it must use a
different index value than COMMON_CPUID_INDEX_1.
The latest stratcliff extension exposed a bug in the IA-64 memchr which
uses non-speculative loads to prefetch data. Change the code to use
speculative loads with appropriate fixup. Fixes BZ 10162.
There are two issues with the forced loop exit in the nscd lookup:
1. the estimate of the entry size isn't pessimistic enough for all
databases, resulting potentially is too early exits
2. the combination of 64-bit process and 32-bit nscd would lead to
rejecting valid records in the database.
The nscd database mapped in processes can change at any time. We
have to be more vigilant when it comes to using that memory. Test
the data entries are valid in their entire size, don't read data
again from memory once we verified it, and make sure the trailing
pointer is not going off the deep end.
If longjmp restores the stack frame to an address which is beyond
the stack frame at the time of the longjmp call it would install
an uninitialized stack frame. If compiled with _FORTIFY_SOURCE
defined, longjmp will now bail out in this situation.
Add a text program, built to run on the host, to check all newly
built DSOs for executable stacks and fail if the stack information
is missing or indicates executable stacks.
