The commit 49d877a80b (arm: Remove
_dl_skip_args usage) removed the _SKIP_ARGS literal, which was
previously loader to r4 on loader _start. However, the cleanup did not
remove the following 'ldr r4, [sl, r4]' on _dl_start_user, used to check
to skip the arguments after ld self-relocations.
In my testing, the kernel initially set r4 to 0, which makes the
ldr instruction just read the _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_. However, since r4
is a callee-saved register; a different runtime might not zero
initialize it and thus trigger an invalid memory access.

The 4af6982e4c fix does not fully handle RTLD_BOOTSTRAP usage on
rtld.c due two issues:
1. RTLD_BOOTSTRAP is also used on dl-machine.h on various
architectures and it changes the semantics of various machine
relocation functions.
2. The elf_get_dynamic_info() change was done sideways, previously
to 490e6c62aa get-dynamic-info.h was included by the first
dynamic-link.h include *without* RTLD_BOOTSTRAP being defined.
It means that the code within elf_get_dynamic_info() that uses
RTLD_BOOTSTRAP is in fact unused.
To fix 1. this patch now includes dynamic-link.h only once with
RTLD_BOOTSTRAP defined. The ELF_DYNAMIC_RELOCATE call will now have
the relocation fnctions with the expected semantics for the loader.
And to fix 2. part of 4af6982e4c is reverted (the check argument
elf_get_dynamic_info() is not required) and the RTLD_BOOTSTRAP
pieces are removed.
To reorganize the includes the static TLS definition is moved to
its own header to avoid a circular dependency (it is defined on
dynamic-link.h and dl-machine.h requires it at same time other
dynamic-link.h definition requires dl-machine.h defitions).
Also ELF_MACHINE_NO_REL, ELF_MACHINE_NO_RELA, and ELF_MACHINE_PLT_REL
are moved to its own header. Only ancient ABIs need special values
(arm, i386, and mips), so a generic one is used as default.
The powerpc Elf64_FuncDesc is also moved to its own header, since
csu code required its definition (which would require either include
elf/ folder or add a full path with elf/).

Before to 490e6c62aa ('elf: Avoid nested functions in the loader
[BZ #27220]'), elf_get_dynamic_info() was defined twice on rtld.c: on
the first dynamic-link.h include and later within _dl_start(). The
former definition did not define DONT_USE_BOOTSTRAP_MAP and it is used
on setup_vdso() (since it is a global definition), while the former does
define DONT_USE_BOOTSTRAP_MAP and it is used on loader self-relocation.
With the commit change, the function is now included and defined once
instead of defined as a nested function. So rtld.c defines without
defining RTLD_BOOTSTRAP and it brokes at least powerpc32.
This patch fixes by moving the get-dynamic-info.h include out of
dynamic-link.h, which then the caller can corirectly set the expected
semantic by defining STATIC_PIE_BOOTSTRAP, RTLD_BOOTSTRAP, and/or
RESOLVE_MAP.
It also required to enable some asserts only for the loader bootstrap
to avoid issues when called from setup_vdso().
As a side note, this is another issues with nested functions: it is
not clear from pre-processed output (-E -dD) how the function will
be build and its semantic (since nested function will be local and
extra C defines may change it).

dynamic-link.h is included more than once in some elf/ files (rtld.c,

functions. This harms readability and the nested functions usage
is the biggest obstacle prevents Clang build (Clang doesn't support GCC
nested functions).
The key idea for unnesting is to add extra parameters (struct link_map

ELF_MACHINE_BEFORE_RTLD_RELOC, ELF_DYNAMIC_RELOCATE, elf_machine_rel[a],
elf_machine_lazy_rel, and elf_machine_runtime_setup. (This is inspired
by Stan Shebs' ppc64/x86-64 implementation in the
google/grte/v5-2.27/master which uses mixed extra parameters and static

Future simplification:
* If mips elf_machine_runtime_setup no longer needs RESOLVE_GOTSYM,

Wrap symbol address run-time calculation into a macro and use it
throughout, replacing inline calculations.
There are a couple of variants, most of them different in a functionally
insignificant way. Most calculations are right following RESOLVE_MAP,
at which point either the map or the symbol returned can be checked for
validity as the macro sets either both or neither. In some places both
the symbol and the map has to be checked however.
My initial implementation therefore always checked both, however that
resulted in code larger by as much as 0.3%, as many places know from
elsewhere that no check is needed. I have decided the size growth was
unacceptable.
Having looked closer I realized that it's the map that is the culprit.
Therefore I have modified LOOKUP_VALUE_ADDRESS to accept an additional
boolean argument telling it to access the map without checking it for
validity. This in turn has brought quite nice results, with new code
actually being smaller for i686, and MIPS o32, n32 and little-endian n64
targets, unchanged in size for x86-64 and, unusually, marginally larger
for big-endian MIPS n64, as follows:

[BZ #17078] ARM: R_ARM_TLS_DESC prelinker support
This only implemented support for the lazy binding case (and thus
closed the bugzilla ticket prematurely), however tlsdesc on arm is
not correct with lazy binding because there is a data race between

Lazy initialization of tlsdesc entries will be removed from arm to
fix the data races and thus this half-finished prelinker support
is no longer useful.

There is bug report that ld.so in GLIBC 2.24 built by Binutils 2.29 will crash
on arm-linux-gnueabihf. This is confirmed, and the details is at:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21725.
As analyzed in the PR, the old code was with the assumption that assembler
won't set bit0 of thumb function address if it comes from PC-relative
instructions and the calculation can be finished during assembling. This
assumption however does not hold after PR gas/21458.

ELFv2 functions with localentry:0 are those with a single entry point,

r12 and guarantee r2 is unchanged on return. Such an external
function can be called via the PLT without saving r2 or restoring it
on return, avoiding a common load-hit-store for small functions.
This patch implements the ld.so changes necessary for this
optimization. ld.so needs to check that an optimized plt call
sequence is in fact calling a function implemented with localentry:0,
end emit a fatal error otherwise.
The elf/testobj6.c change is to stop "error while loading shared

When building on i686, x86_64, and arm, and with NDEBUG, or --with-cpu
there are various variables and functions which are unused based on
these settings.
This patch marks all such variables with __attribute__((unused)) to
avoid the compiler warnings when building with the aformentioned
options.
Continuing the removal of the obsolete INTDEF / INTUSE mechanism, this
patch eliminates its use for _dl_init. Since _dl_init was already
declared with hidden visibility, creating a second hidden alias for it
was completely pointless, so this patch replaces all uses of
_dl_init_internal with plain _dl_init instead of using hidden_proto /
hidden_def (which are only needed when you want a hidden alias for a
non-hidden symbol; it's quite possible there are cases where they are
used but don't need to be because the symbol in question is not part
of the public ABI and is only used within a single library, so using
attributes_hidden instead would suffice).
Tested for x86_64 that installed stripped shared libraries are
unchanged by the patch.

This is a change to the dynamic linker to add prelinker support for the
R_ARM_TLS_DESC relocation. Two cases can be considered here, the usual
one where lazy binding is in use and the less frequent one, where
immediate binding is requested via the use of the DF_BIND_NOW dynamic
flag (e.g. by using the GNU linker's "-z now" option).
This change only handles the first case. In this scenario the prelinker
does what the dynamic linker would do, that is it preinitialises
R_ARM_TLS_DESC relocations with a pointer to the lazy specialization as
provided with the DT_TLSDESC_PLT dynamic tag. A conflict is
additionally created and in the conflict resolution path the dynamic
linker complements the work by initialising the object's pointer as
indicated by the DT_TLSDESC_GOT dynamic tag to the linker's internal
lazy specialization worker function and also providing the associated
link map in the second entry of the GOT. This step is required, because
if prelinking is successful at the run time, then the dynamic linker's
elf_machine_runtime_setup() function isn't called that would normally do
so.
The second case remains unresolved, because support for that scenario
has not been implemented in the prelinker. In this case the lazy
specialization is unavailable and the DT_TLSDESC_PLT dynamic tag is not
present.
The prelinker could assume the common case of static specialization and
resolve the relocation, but that would require the exposure of dynamic
linker's specialization worker function. Furthermore the dynamic linker
would have to handle the relocation in the conflict resolution path and
see if the dynamic specialization should be used instead. This however
would require access to data structures currently not made available to
the conflict resolution path and therefore a redesign of this part of
the dynamic linker.
Alternatively the prelinker could defer all processing to the dynamic
linker's conflict resolution path, but that would require similar access
to the said data structures.
Therefore the prelinker issues an error instead and the dynamic linker
has assertions to check that DT_TLSDESC_PLT and DT_TLSDESC_GOT are in
use in its conflict resolution path.
This change resolves all TLS failures in the prelinker testsuite, as
noted in the bug report, as well as the small test case provided there.
Unfortunately we don't seem to have any hooks to factor in the prelinker
(if present on a system) to testing, so at this time this fix has to
rely on using the prelinker test suite and enabling TLS descriptors
there for coverage.
[BZ #17078]
* sysdeps/arm/dl-machine.h (elf_machine_rela)
[RESOLVE_CONFLICT_FIND_MAP]: Handle R_ARM_TLS_DESC relocation.
(elf_machine_lazy_rel): Handle prelinked R_ARM_TLS_DESC entries.
This fixes the calculation of R_ARM_TLS_DESC relocations for lazy global
symbol references, i.e. created with `-z lazy' in effect with the static
linker, where immediate resolution is requested with LD_BIND_NOW.
This patch fixes what I believe to be a bug in the handling of
R_ARM_IRELATIVE RELA relocations. At present, these are handled the
same as REL relocations: i.e. the addend is loaded from the relocation
address. Most of the time this isn't a problem because RELA relocations
aren't used on ARM (GNU/Linux at least) anyway, but it causes problems
with prelink, which uses RELA on all targets for its conflict table.
(Support for ifunc prelinking requires a prelink patch, not yet posted.)
Anyway, this patch works, though I'm not 100% sure if it is correct: I
notice that this code path received attention last year:
https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-ports/2013-07/msg00000.html
I'm not sure under what circumstances that patch would have had an
effect, nor if my patch conflicts with that case.
No regressions using Mentor's usual glibc cross-testing infrastructure.
[BZ #16888]
* sysdeps/arm/dl-machine.h (elf_machine_rela): Fix R_ARM_IRELATIVE
handling.
I've moved the ARM port from ports to the main sysdeps hierarchy.
Beyond the README update, the move of the files was simply
git mv ports/sysdeps/arm sysdeps/arm
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/arm sysdeps/unix/arm
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm
and in addition to the ChangeLog entries here, I put a note at the top
of ports/ChangeLog.arm similar to that at the top of
ChangeLog.powerpc. There is deliberately no NEWS change, as I think
it makes the most sense to put in a general note above all ports
having moved if we can achieve that for 2.20.
Tested that disassembly of installed shared libraries for arm is the
same before and after this patch, except for data (not instructions)
in ld.so (there are assertions in sysdeps/arm/dl-machine.h, and the
path by which that file is found, and so by which it appears in the
assertion message, changes as a result of the move).
* sysdeps/arm: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/arm.
* sysdeps/unix/arm: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/unix/arm.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm: Move directory from
ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm.
* README: Update listing for arm-*-linux-gnueabi.
ports/ChangeLog.arm:
* sysdeps/arm: Move directory to ../sysdeps/arm.
* sysdeps/unix/arm: Move directory to ../sysdeps.arm.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm: Move directory to
../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm.
