This reverts commit 6f85dbf102.
Once this change hits the release branches, it will require relinking
of all statically linked applications before static dlopen works
again, for the majority of updates on release branches: The NEWS file
is regularly updated with bug references, so the __libc_early_init
suffix changes, and static dlopen cannot find the function anymore.
While this ABI check is still technically correct (we do require
rebuilding & relinking after glibc updates to keep static dlopen
working), it is too drastic for stable release branches.

The files NEWS, include/link.h, and sysdeps/generic/ldsodefs.h
contribute to the version fingerprint used for detection. The
fingerprint can be further refined using the --with-extra-version-id
configure argument.
_dl_call_libc_early_init is replaced with _dl_lookup_libc_early_init.
The new function is used store a pointer to libc.so's
__libc_early_init function in the libc_map_early_init member of the
ld.so namespace structure. This function pointer can then be called
directly, so the separate invocation function is no longer needed.
The versioned symbol lookup needs the symbol versioning data
structures, so the initialization of libc_map and libc_map_early_init
is now done from _dl_check_map_versions, after this information
becomes available. (_dl_map_object_from_fd does not set this up
in time, so the initialization code had to be moved from there.)
This means that the separate initialization code can be removed from
dl_main because _dl_check_map_versions covers all maps, including
the initial executable loaded by the kernel. The lookup still happens
before relocation and the invocation of IFUNC resolvers, so IFUNC
resolvers are protected from ABI mismatch.
The __libc_early_init function pointer is not protected because
so little code runs between the pointer write and the invocation
(only dynamic linker code and IFUNC resolvers).

On _dl_map_object the underlying file is not opened in trace mode
(in other cases where the underlying file can't be opened,
_dl_map_object quits with an error). If there any missing libraries
being processed, they will not be considered on final nlist size
passed on _dl_sort_maps later in the function. And it is then used by
_dl_sort_maps_dfs on the stack allocated working maps:
222 /* Array to hold RPO sorting results, before we copy back to maps[]. */
223 struct link_map *rpo[nmaps];
224
225 /* The 'head' position during each DFS iteration. Note that we start at
226 one past the last element due to first-decrement-then-store (see the
227 bottom of above dfs_traversal() routine). */
228 struct link_map **rpo_head = &rpo[nmaps];
However while transversing the 'l_initfini' on dfs_traversal it will
still consider the l_faked maps and thus update rpo more times than the
allocated working 'rpo', overflowing the stack object.
As suggested in bugzilla, one option would be to avoid sorting the maps
for trace mode. However I think ignoring l_faked object does make
sense (there is one less constraint to call the sorting function), it
allows a slight less stack usage for trace, and it is slight simpler
solution.
The tests does trigger the stack overflow, however I tried to make
it more generic to check different scenarios or missing objects.

The EI_ABIVERSION field of the ELF header in executables and shared
libraries can be bumped to indicate the minimum ABI requirement on the
dynamic linker. However, EI_ABIVERSION in executables isn't checked by
the Linux kernel ELF loader nor the existing dynamic linker. Executables
will crash mysteriously if the dynamic linker doesn't support the ABI
features required by the EI_ABIVERSION field. The dynamic linker should
be changed to check EI_ABIVERSION in executables.
Add a glibc version, GLIBC_ABI_DT_RELR, to indicate DT_RELR support so
that the existing dynamic linkers will issue an error on executables with
GLIBC_ABI_DT_RELR dependency. When there is a DT_VERNEED entry with
libc.so on DT_NEEDED, issue an error if there is a DT_RELR entry without
GLIBC_ABI_DT_RELR dependency.
Support __placeholder_only_for_empty_version_map as the placeholder symbol
used only for empty version map to generate GLIBC_ABI_DT_RELR without any
symbols.
Hopefully, this will lead to tests that are easier to maintain. The
current approach of parsing readelf -W output using regular expressions
is not necessarily easier than parsing the ELF data directly.
This module is still somewhat incomplete (e.g., coverage of relocation
types and versioning information is missing), but it is sufficient to
perform basic symbol analysis or program header analysis.

Always enable DT_INIT_ARRAY/DT_FINI_ARRAY on Linux
configure GCC with --enable-initfini-array to enable them when using GCC
release branches.
Fixes BZ #27945.
This is the first of a 2-part patch set that fixes slow DSO sorting behavior in
the dynamic loader, as reported in BZ #17645. In order to facilitate such a
large modification to the dynamic loader, this first patch implements a testing
framework for validating shared object sorting behavior, to enable comparison
between old/new sorting algorithms, and any later enhancements.
This testing infrastructure consists of a Python script
scripts/dso-ordering-test.py' which takes in a description language, consisting
of strings that describe a set of link dependency relations between DSOs, and
generates testcase programs and Makefile fragments to automatically test the
described situation, for example:
a->b->c->d # four objects linked one after another
a->[bc]->d;b->c # a depends on b and c, which both depend on d,
# b depends on c (b,c linked to object a in fixed order)
a->b->c;{+a;%a;-a} # a, b, c serially dependent, main program uses
# dlopen/dlsym/dlclose on object a
a->b->c;{}!->[abc] # a, b, c serially dependent; multiple tests generated
# to test all permutations of a, b, c ordering linked
# to main program
(Above is just a short description of what the script can do, more
documentation is in the script comments.)
Two files containing several new tests, elf/dso-sort-tests-[12].def are added,
including test scenarios for BZ #15311 and Redhat issue #1162810 [1].
Due to the nature of dynamic loader tests, where the sorting behavior and test
output occurs before/after main(), generating testcases to use
support/test-driver.c does not suffice to control meaningful timeout for ld.so.
Therefore a new utility program 'support/test-run-command', based on
test-driver.c/support_test_main.c has been added. This does the same testcase
control, but for a program specified through a command-line rather than at the
source code level. This utility is used to run the dynamic loader testcases
generated by dso-ordering-test.py.

We stopped adding "Contributed by" or similar lines in sources in 2012

Some targets have a GLIBC_2.0 baseline for libdl, while using
GLIBC_2.2 for libc. This means that the generated libc.map file
does not have any version nodes for GLIBC_2.0 or GLIBC_2.1. However,
moving symbols from libdl into libc needs such version nodes.
(Future symbol moves from librt will need this as well.)
This kludge is only necessary for symbols predating GLIBC_2.2 because
the affected targets use GLIBC_2.2 as the baseline for libc. Given
the small number and fixed set of affected architectures, no generic
mechanism is implemented, and instead the map file fragment is
hard-coded in scripts/versions.mk.

With static pie linking pointers in the tunables list need
RELATIVE relocs since the absolute address is not known at link
time. We want to avoid relocations so the static pie self
relocation can be done after tunables are initialized.
This is a simple fix that embeds the tunable strings into the
tunable list instead of using pointers. It is possible to have
a more compact representation of tunables with some additional
complexity in the generator and tunable parser logic. Such
optimization will be useful if the list of tunables grows.
There is still an issue that tunables_strdup allocates and the
failure handling code path is sufficiently complex that it can
easily have RELATIVE relocations. It is possible to avoid the
early allocation and only change environment variables in a
setuid exe after relocations are processed. But that is a
bigger change and early failure is fatal anyway so it is not
as critical to fix right away. This is bug 27181.

Adding this gcc option also to our tests was proposed by Florian Weimer.
This change also found a hit in resource.h where now "microseconds" is used.
I've adjusted all the resource.h files.
I've used the following command to check for further hits in headers.
LC_ALL=C find -name "*.h" -exec grep -PHn "[\x80-\xFF]" {} \;
Tested on s390x and x86_64.

Now that binutils-gdb has gdbserver at top level, an extra
--disable-gdbserver configure option is needed when configuring
binutils from a git checkout to avoid it also building gdbserver
unnecessarily (although fairly harmlessly). This patch updates the
options used in build-many-glibcs.py accordingly (although this might
end up not being needed depending on what happens regarding whether
gdbserver gets built for host != target).
Tested with a build-many-glibcs.py compilers build for
aarch64-linux-gnu using binutils-gdb master.
