When the memory object is read-only, the kernel would be right in
refusing max vmprot containing VM_PROT_WRITE.

The AArch64 ABI is largely platform agnostic and does not specify
_GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_[0] ([1]). glibc ld.so turns out to be probably the
only user of _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_[0] and GNU ld defines the value
to the link-time address _DYNAMIC. [2]
In 2012, __ehdr_start was implemented in GNU ld and gold in binutils
2.23. Using adrp+add / (-mcmodel=tiny) adr to access
__ehdr_start/_DYNAMIC gives us a robust way to get the load address and
the link-time address of _DYNAMIC.
[1]: From a psABI maintainer, https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49672#c2
[2]: LLD's aarch64 port does not set _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_[0] to the
link-time address _DYNAMIC.
LLD is widely used on aarch64 Android and ChromeOS devices. Software
just works without the need for _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_[0].

We can consider __ehdr_start (from binutils 2.23 onwards)
unconditionally supported, since configure.ac requires binutils>=2.25.
The configure.ac check is related to an ia64 bug fixed by binutils 2.24.

Linux 5.13 adds a PTRACE_GET_RSEQ_CONFIGURATION constant, with an
associated ptrace_rseq_configuration structure.
Add this constant to the various sys/ptrace.h headers in glibc, with
the structure in bits/ptrace-shared.h (named struct
__ptrace_rseq_configuration in glibc, as with other such structures).
Tested for x86_64, and with build-many-glibcs.py.
Helper thread frees copied attribute on NOTIFY_REMOVED message
received from the OS kernel. Unfortunately, it fails to check whether
copied attribute actually exists (data.attr != NULL). This worked
earlier because free() checks passed pointer before actually
attempting to release corresponding memory. But
__pthread_attr_destroy assumes pointer is not NULL.
So passing NULL pointer to __pthread_attr_destroy will result in
segmentation fault. This scenario is possible if
notification->sigev_notify_attributes == NULL (which means default
thread attributes should be used).

Linux 5.13 adds an INADDR_DUMMY definition; add a corresponding

It turned that the generic implementation of brk() does not work

Checked on sparc64-linux-gnu and sparcv9-linux-gnu.
This test depends on the "last" function being called in a
different thread than the "first" function, as "last" posts
a semaphore that "first" is waiting on. However, if pthread_create
fails - for example, if running in an older container before
the clone3()-in-container-EPERM fixes - exit() is called in the
same thread as everything else, the semaphore never gets posted,
and first hangs.
The fix is to pre-post that semaphore before a single-threaded
exit.
