The value of PR_TAGGED_ADDR_ENABLE was incorrect in the installed
headers and the prctl command macros were missing that are needed
for it to be useful (PR_SET_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL). Linux headers have
the definitions since 5.4 so it's widely available, we don't need
to repeat these definitions. The remaining definitions are from
Linux 5.10.
To build glibc with --enable-memory-tagging, Linux 5.4 headers and
binutils 2.33.1 or newer is needed.

Since Linux 4.13, kernel limits the maximum command line arguments
length to 6 MiB [1]. Normally the limit is still quarter of the maximum
stack size but if that limit exceeds 6 MiB it's clamped down.
glibc's __sysconf implementation for Linux platform is not aware of
this limitation and for stack sizes of over 24 MiB it returns higher
ARG_MAX than Linux will actually accept. This can be verified by
executing the following application on Linux 4.13 or newer:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <sys/resource.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(void) {
const struct rlimit rlim = { 40 * 1024 * 1024,
40 * 1024 * 1024 };
if (setrlimit(RLIMIT_STACK, &rlim) < 0) {
perror("setrlimit: RLIMIT_STACK");
return 1;
}
printf("ARG_MAX : %8ld\n", sysconf(_SC_ARG_MAX));
printf("63 * 100 KiB: %8ld\n", 63L * 100 * 1024);
printf("6 MiB : %8ld\n", 6L * 1024 * 1024);
char str[100 * 1024], *argv[64], *envp[1];
memset(&str, 'A', sizeof str);
str[sizeof str - 1] = '\0';
for (size_t i = 0; i < sizeof argv / sizeof *argv - 1; ++i) {
argv[i] = str;
}
argv[sizeof argv / sizeof *argv - 1] = envp[0] = 0;
execve("/bin/true", argv, envp);
perror("execve");
return 1;
}
On affected systems the program will report ARG_MAX as 10 MiB but
despite that executing /bin/true with a bit over 6 MiB of command line
arguments will fail with E2BIG error. Expected result is that ARG_MAX
is reported as 6 MiB.
Update the __sysconf function to clamp ARG_MAX value to 6 MiB if it
would otherwise exceed it. This resolves bug #25305 which was market
WONTFIX as suggested solution was to cap ARG_MAX at 128 KiB.
As an aside and point of comparison, bionic (a libc implementation for
Android systems) decided to resolve this issue by always returning 128
KiB ignoring any potential xargs regressions [2].
On older kernels this results in returning overly conservative value
but that's a safer option than being aggressive and returning invalid
value on recent systems. It's also worth noting that at this point
all supported Linux releases have the 6 MiB barrier so only someone
running an unsupported kernel version would get incorrectly truncated
result.

So the patch fixes an existing violation of the openlog interface contract

The commit 2433d39b69, which added time64 support to select, changed
the function to use __NR_pselect6 (or __NR_pelect6_time64) on all
architectures. However, on architectures where the symbol was
implemented with __NR_select the kernel normalizes the passed timeout
instead of return EINVAL. For instance, the input timeval
{ 0, 5000000 } is interpreted as { 5, 0 }.
And as indicated by BZ #27651, this semantic seems to be expected
and changing it results in some performance issues (most likely
the program does not check the return code and keeps issuing
select with unormalized tv_usec argument).
To avoid a different semantic depending whether which syscall the
architecture used to issue, select now always normalize the timeout
input. This is a slight change for some ABIs (for instance aarch64).
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.
When parse_tunables tries to erase a tunable marked as SXID_ERASE for
setuid programs, it ends up setting the envvar string iterator
incorrectly, because of which it may parse the next tunable
incorrectly. Given that currently the implementation allows malformed
and unrecognized tunables pass through, it may even allow SXID_ERASE
tunables to go through.
This change revamps the SXID_ERASE implementation so that:
- Only valid tunables are written back to the tunestr string, because
of which children of SXID programs will only inherit a clean list of
identified tunables that are not SXID_ERASE.
- Unrecognized tunables get scrubbed off from the environment and
subsequently from the child environment.
- This has the side-effect that a tunable that is not identified by
the setxid binary, will not be passed on to a non-setxid child even
if the child could have identified that tunable. This may break
applications that expect this behaviour but expecting such tunables
to cross the SXID boundary is wrong.

Add a new function support_capture_subprogram_self_sgid that spawns an
sgid child of the running program with its own image and returns the
exit code of the child process. This functionality is used by at
least three tests in the testsuite at the moment, so it makes sense to
consolidate.
There is also a new function support_subprogram_wait which should
provide simple system() like functionality that does not set up file
actions. This is useful in cases where only the return code of the
spawned subprocess is interesting.
This patch also ports tst-secure-getenv to this new function. A
subsequent patch will port other tests. This also brings an important
change to tst-secure-getenv behaviour. Now instead of succeeding, the
test fails as UNSUPPORTED if it is unable to spawn a setgid child,
which is how it should have been in the first place.

An incorrect check in __longjmp_chk could fail on valid code causing
FAIL: debug/tst-longjmp_chk2
The original check was
altstack_sp + altstack_size - setjmp_sp > altstack_size
i.e. sp at setjmp was outside of the altstack range. Here we know that
longjmp is called from a signal handler on the altstack (SS_ONSTACK),
and that it jumps in the wrong direction (sp decreases), so the check
wants to ensure the jump goes to another stack.
The check is wrong when altstack_sp == setjmp_sp which can happen
when the altstack is a local buffer in the function that calls setjmp,
so the patch allows == too. This fixes bug 27709.
Note that the generic __longjmp_chk check seems to be different.
(it checks if longjmp was on the altstack but does not check setjmp,
so it would not catch incorrect longjmp use within the signal handler).
With this patch, the maximal known error for tgamma is now reduced to 9 ulps
for dbl-64, for all rounding modes. Since exhaustive testing is not possible
for dbl-64, it might be that there are still cases with an error larger than
9 ulps, but all known cases are fixed (intensive tests were done to find cases
with large errors).

The simplification of tunable_set interfaces took care of
signed/unsigned conversions while setting values, but comparison with

them to do comparison instead.
The 13th edition of Svenska Akademiens ordlista lists 'W' as a

the letter 'W'.
No regressions on x86_64, and locale sorting tests all pass.

dlopen updates libname_list by writing to lastp->next, but concurrent

This patch fixes the race between _dl_name_match_p reading lastp->next

For j0f/j1f/y0f/y1f, the largest error for all binary32
inputs is reduced to at most 9 ulps for all rounding modes.
The new code is enabled only when there is a cancellation at the very end of
the j0f/j1f/y0f/y1f computation, or for very large inputs, thus should not
give any visible slowdown on average. Two different algorithms are used:
* around the first 64 zeros of j0/j1/y0/y1, approximation polynomials of
degree 3 are used, computed using the Sollya tool (https://www.sollya.org/)
* for large inputs, an asymptotic formula from [1] is used
