This looks like a post-exploitation hardening measure: If an attacker is
able to redirect execution flow, they could use that to load a DSO which
contains additional code (or perhaps make the stack executable).
However, the checks are not in the correct place to be effective: If
they are performed before the critical operation, an attacker with
sufficient control over execution flow could simply jump directly to
the code which performs the operation, bypassing the check. The check
would have to be executed unconditionally after the operation and
terminate the process in case a caller violation was detected.
Furthermore, in _dl_check_caller, there was a fallback reading global
writable data (GL(dl_rtld_map).l_map_start and
GL(dl_rtld_map).l_text_end), which could conceivably be targeted by an
attacker to disable the check, too.
Other critical functions (such as system) remain completely
unprotected, so the value of these additional checks does not appear
that large. Therefore this commit removes this functionality.
is_path argument is no longer used and could be safely removed.
* elf/dl-dst.h (DL_DST_COUNT): Remove is_path argument, all callers
updated.
* elf/dl-load.c (is_dst, _dl_dst_count, _dl_dst_substitute,
expand_dynamic_string_token): Likewise.
* sysdeps/generic/ldsodefs.h (_dl_dst_count, _dl_dst_substitute): Remove
is_path argument.
GLRO (_rtld_global_ro) is read-only after initialization and can
therefore not be patched at run time, unlike the hook table addresses
and their contents, so this is a desirable hardening feature.
The hooks are only needed if ld.so has not been initialized, and this
happens only after static dlopen (dlmopen uses a single ld.so object
across all namespaces).

Static PIE extends address space layout randomization to static
executables. It provides additional security hardening benefits at
the cost of some memory and performance.
Dynamic linker, ld.so, is a standalone program which can be loaded at
any address. This patch adds a configure option, --enable-static-pie,
to embed the part of ld.so in static executable to create static position
independent executable (static PIE). A static PIE is similar to static
executable, but can be loaded at any address without help from a dynamic
linker. When --enable-static-pie is used to configure glibc, libc.a is
built as PIE and all static executables, including tests, are built as
static PIE. The resulting libc.a can be used together with GCC 8 or
above to build static PIE with the compiler option, -static-pie. But
GCC 8 isn't required to build glibc with --enable-static-pie. Only GCC
with PIE support is needed. When an older GCC is used to build glibc
with --enable-static-pie, proper input files are passed to linker to
create static executables as static PIE, together with "-z text" to
prevent dynamic relocations in read-only segments, which are not allowed
in static PIE.
The following changes are made for static PIE:
1. Add a new function, _dl_relocate_static_pie, to:
a. Get the run-time load address.
b. Read the dynamic section.
c. Perform dynamic relocations.
Dynamic linker also performs these steps. But static PIE doesn't load
any shared objects.
2. Call _dl_relocate_static_pie at entrance of LIBC_START_MAIN in
libc.a. crt1.o, which is used to create dynamic and non-PIE static
executables, is updated to include a dummy _dl_relocate_static_pie.
rcrt1.o is added to create static PIE, which will link in the real
_dl_relocate_static_pie. grcrt1.o is also added to create static PIE
with -pg. GCC 8 has been updated to support rcrt1.o and grcrt1.o for
static PIE.
Static PIE can work on all architectures which support PIE, provided:
1. Target must support accessing of local functions without dynamic
relocations, which is needed in start.S to call __libc_start_main with
function addresses of __libc_csu_init, __libc_csu_fini and main. All
functions in static PIE are local functions. If PIE start.S can't reach
main () defined in a shared object, the code sequence:
pass address of local_main to __libc_start_main
...
local_main:
tail call to main via PLT
can be used.
2. start.S is updated to check PIC instead SHARED for PIC code path and
avoid dynamic relocation, when PIC is defined and SHARED isn't defined,
to support static PIE.
3. All assembly codes are updated check PIC instead SHARED for PIC code
path to avoid dynamic relocations in read-only sections.
4. All assembly codes are updated check SHARED instead PIC for static
symbol name.
5. elf_machine_load_address in dl-machine.h are updated to support static
PIE.
6. __brk works without TLS nor dynamic relocations in read-only section
so that it can be used by __libc_setup_tls to initializes TLS in static
PIE.
NB: When glibc is built with GCC defaulted to PIE, libc.a is compiled
with -fPIE, regardless if --enable-static-pie is used to configure glibc.
When glibc is configured with --enable-static-pie, libc.a is compiled
with -fPIE, regardless whether GCC defaults to PIE or not. The same
libc.a can be used to build both static executable and static PIE.
There is no need for separate PIE copy of libc.a.
On x86-64, the normal static sln:
text data bss dec hex filename
625425 8284 5456 639165 9c0bd elf/sln
the static PIE sln:
text data bss dec hex filename
657626 20636 5392 683654 a6e86 elf/sln
The code size is increased by 5% and the binary size is increased by 7%.
Linker requirements to build glibc with --enable-static-pie:
1. Linker supports --no-dynamic-linker to remove PT_INTERP segment from
static PIE.
2. Linker can create working static PIE. The x86-64 linker needs the
fix for
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21782
The i386 linker needs to be able to convert "movl main@GOT(%ebx), %eax"
to "leal main@GOTOFF(%ebx), %eax" if main is defined locally.
Binutils 2.29 or above are OK for i686 and x86-64. But linker status for
other targets need to be verified.
3. Linker should resolve undefined weak symbols to 0 in static PIE:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22269
4. Many ELF backend linkers incorrectly check bfd_link_pic for TLS
relocations, which should check bfd_link_executable instead:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22263
Tested on aarch64, i686 and x86-64.

Combine the four places where link maps are sorted into a single function.
This also moves the logic to skip the first map (representing the main
binary) to the callers.
To support Intel Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET) run-time
control:
1. An architecture specific field in the writable ld.so namespace is
needed to indicate if CET features are enabled at run-time.
2. An architecture specific field in struct link_map is needed if
CET features are enabled in an ELF module.
This patch adds dl-procruntime.c to the writable ld.so namespace and
link_map.h to struct link_map.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py.

Assembler code passes the address of _dl_fini to __libc_start_main,
whose function pointer argument lacks the attribute. This means
that calls could use the wrong ABI. Fortunately, for zero-parameter
void-returning functions, internal_function does not change ABI
on i386 (the only architecture which uses internal_function), so
this inconsistency was harmless (which is why it had not been
noticed so far).
This commit separates allocating and raising exceptions. This
simplifies catching and re-raising them because it is no longer
necessary to make a temporary, on-stack copy of the exception message.

The address of the stack canary is stored in a per-thread variable,
which means that we must ensure that the TLS area is intialized before
calling any -fstack-protector'ed functions. For dynamically linked
applications, we ensure this (in a later patch) by disabling
-fstack-protector for the whole dynamic linker, but for static
applications, the AT_ENTRY address is called directly by the kernel, so
we must deal with the problem differently.
In static appliations, __libc_setup_tls performs the TCB setup and TLS
initialization, so this commit arranges for it to be called early and
unconditionally. The call (and the stack guard initialization) is
before the DL_SYSDEP_OSCHECK hook, which if set will probably call
functions which are stack-protected (it does on Linux and NaCL too). We
also move apply_irel up, so that we can still safely call functions that
require ifuncs while in __libc_setup_tls (though if stack-protection is
enabled we still have to avoid calling functions that are not
stack-protected at this stage).
Commit 7a5e3d9d63 (elf: Assume TLS is
initialized in _dl_map_object_from_fd) removed the last call of
_dl_tls_setup, but did not remove the function itself.
This change moves the main implementation of _dl_catch_error,
_dl_signal_error to libc.so, where TLS variables can be used
directly. This removes a writable function pointer from the
rtld_global variable.
For use during initial relocation, minimal implementations of these
functions are provided in ld.so. These are eventually interposed
by the libc.so implementations. This is implemented by compiling
elf/dl-error-skeleton.c twice, via elf/dl-error.c and
elf/dl-error-minimal.c.
As a side effect of this change, the static version of dl-error.c
no longer includes support for the
_dl_signal_cerror/_dl_receive_error mechanism because it is only
used in ld.so.
In a reference to PR ld/19908 make ld.so respect symbol export classes
aka visibility and treat STV_HIDDEN and STV_INTERNAL symbols as local,
preventing such symbols from preempting exported symbols.
According to the ELF gABI[1] neither STV_HIDDEN nor STV_INTERNAL symbols
are supposed to be present in linked binaries:
"A hidden symbol contained in a relocatable object must be either
removed or converted to STB_LOCAL binding by the link-editor when the
relocatable object is included in an executable file or shared object."
"An internal symbol contained in a relocatable object must be either
removed or converted to STB_LOCAL binding by the link-editor when the
relocatable object is included in an executable file or shared object."
however some GNU binutils versions produce such symbols in some cases.
PR ld/19908 is one and we also have this note in scripts/abilist.awk:
so clearly there is linked code out there which contains such symbols
which is prone to symbol table misinterpretation, and it'll be more
productive if we handle this gracefully, under the Robustness Principle:
"be liberal in what you accept, and conservative in what you produce",
especially as this is a simple (STV_HIDDEN|STV_INTERNAL) => STB_LOCAL
mapping.

With copy relocation, address of protected data defined in the shared
library may be external. When there is a relocation against the
protected data symbol within the shared library, we need to check if we
should skip the definition in the executable copied from the protected
data. This patch adds ELF_RTYPE_CLASS_EXTERN_PROTECTED_DATA and defines
it for x86. If ELF_RTYPE_CLASS_EXTERN_PROTECTED_DATA isn't 0, do_lookup_x
will skip the data definition in the executable from copy reloc.

The ability to recursively call dlopen is useful for malloc
implementations that wish to load other dynamic modules that
implement reentrant/AS-safe functions to use in their own
implementation.
Given that a user malloc implementation may be called by an
ongoing dlopen to allocate memory the user malloc
implementation interrupts dlopen and if it calls dlopen again
that's a reentrant call.
This patch fixes the issues with the ld.so.cache mapping
and the _r_debug assertion which prevent this from working
as expected.

Completing the removal of the obsolete INTDEF / INTUSE mechanism, this
patch removes the final use - that for _dl_starting_up - replacing it
by rtld_hidden_def / rtld_hidden_proto. Having removed the last use,
the mechanism itself is also removed.
Tested for x86_64 that installed stripped shared libraries are
unchanged by the patch. (This is not much of a test since this
variable is only defined and used in the !HAVE_INLINED_SYSCALLS case.)

[!HAVE_INLINED_SYSCALLS] (_dl_starting_up_internal): Likewise.
(_dl_init) [!HAVE_INLINED_SYSCALLS]: Don't use INTUSE with
_dl_starting_up.
* elf/dl-writev.h (_dl_writev): Likewise.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/dl-machine.h [!HAVE_INLINED_SYSCALLS]
(DL_STARTING_UP_DEF): Use __GI__dl_starting_up instead of
_dl_starting_up_internal.
Continuing the removal of the obsolete INTDEF / INTUSE mechanism, this
patch replaces its use for _dl_mcount with use of rtld_hidden_def /
rtld_hidden_proto.
Tested for x86_64 that installed stripped shared libraries are
unchanged by the patch.
[BZ #14132]
* elf/dl-profile.c (_dl_mcount): Use rtld_hidden_def instead of
INTDEF.
* sysdeps/generic/ldsodefs.h (_dl_mcount_internal): Remove
declaration.
(_dl_mcount): Use rtld_hidden_proto.
* elf/dl-runtime.c (_dl_profile_fixup): Don't use INTUSE with
_dl_mcount.
* elf/rtld.c (_rtld_global_ro): Likewise.
Continuing the removal of the obsolete INTDEF / INTUSE mechanism, this
patch replaces its use for _dl_argv with rtld_hidden_data_def and
rtld_hidden_proto. Some places in .S files that previously used
_dl_argv_internal or INTUSE(_dl_argv) now use __GI__dl_argv directly
(there are plenty of existing examples of such direct use of __GI_*).
A single place in rtld.c previously used _dl_argv without INTUSE,
apparently accidentally, while the rtld_hidden_proto mechanism avoids
such accidential omissions. As a consequence, this patch *does*
change the contents of stripped ld.so. However, the installed
stripped shared libraries are identical to those you get if instead of
this patch you change that single _dl_argv use to use INTUSE, without
any other changes.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite as well as comparison of installed
stripped shared libraries as described above).
[BZ #14132]
* sysdeps/generic/ldsodefs.h (_dl_argv): Use rtld_hidden_proto.
[IS_IN_rtld] (_dl_argv_internal): Do not declare.
(rtld_progname): Make macro definition unconditional.
* elf/rtld.c (_dl_argv): Use rtld_hidden_data_def instead of
INTDEF.
(dlmopen_doit): Do not use INTUSE with _dl_argv.
(dl_main): Likewise.
* elf/dl-sysdep.c (_dl_sysdep_start): Likewise.
* sysdeps/alpha/dl-machine.h (RTLD_START): Use __GI__dl_argv
instead of _dl_argv_internal.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/dl-start.S (_dl_start_user): Use
__GI__dl_argv instead of INTUSE(_dl_argv).

* sysdeps/generic/ldsodefs.h: Check whether
HP_SMALL_TIMING_AVAIL is defined with #ifdef rather
than #if.
This commit fixes a bug where the dynamic loader would crash
when loading audit libraries, via LD_AUDIT, where those libraries
used TLS. The dynamic loader was not considering that the audit
libraries would use TLS and failed to bump the TLS generation
counter leaving TLS usage inconsistent after loading the audit
libraries.
