Calling free directly may end up freeing a pointer allocated by the
dynamic loader using malloc from libc.so in the base namespace using
the allocator from libc.so in a secondary namespace, which results in
crashes.
This commit redirects the free call through GLRO and the dynamic
linker, to reach the correct namespace. It also cleans up the dlerror
handling along the way, so that pthread_setspecific is no longer
needed (which avoids triggering bug 24774).
I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 6694 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c
and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this
diagnostic from Savannah:
remote: *** pre-commit check failed ...
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
This patch adds fall-through comments in some cases where -Wextra
produces implicit-fallthrough warnings.
The patch is non-exhaustive. Apart from architecture-specific code
for non-x86_64 architectures, it does not change sunrpc/xdr.c (legacy
code, probably should have such changes, but left to be dealt with
separately), or places that already had comments about the
fall-through but not matching the form expected by
-Wimplicit-fallthrough=3 (the default level with -Wextra; my
inclination is to adjust those comments to match rather than
downgrading to -Wimplicit-fallthrough=1 to allow any comment), or one
place where I thought the implicit fallthrough was not correct and so
should be handled separately as a bug fix. I think the key thing to
consider in review of this patch is whether the fall-through is indeed
intended and correct in each place where such a comment is added.
Tested for x86_64.
* elf/dl-exception.c (_dl_exception_create_format): Add
fall-through comments.
* elf/ldconfig.c (parse_conf_include): Likewise.
* elf/rtld.c (print_statistics): Likewise.
* locale/programs/charmap.c (parse_charmap): Likewise.
* misc/mntent_r.c (__getmntent_r): Likewise.
* posix/wordexp.c (parse_arith): Likewise.
(parse_backtick): Likewise.
* resolv/ns_ttl.c (ns_parse_ttl): Likewise.
* sysdeps/x86/cpu-features.c (init_cpu_features): Likewise.
* sysdeps/x86_64/dl-machine.h (elf_machine_rela): Likewise.
Add support for %x, %lx and %zx to _dl_exception_create_format and pad
to the full width with 0.
* elf/Makefile (tests-internal): Add tst-create_format1.
* elf/dl-exception.c (_dl_exception_create_format): Support
%x, %lx and %zx.
* elf/tst-create_format1.c: New file.
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.
