d03511f48f nptl: Eliminate the __static_tls_size, __static_tls_align_m1 variables
Use the  __nptl_tls_static_size_for_stack inline function instead,
and the GLRO (dl_tls_static_align) value directly.

The computation of GLRO (dl_tls_static_align)  in
_dl_determine_tlsoffset ensures that the alignment is at least
TLS_TCB_ALIGN, which at least STACK_ALIGN (see allocate_stack).
Therefore, the additional rounding-up step is removed.

ALso move the initialization of the default stack size from
__pthread_initialize_minimal_internal to __pthread_early_init.
This introduces an extra system call during single-threaded startup,
but this simplifies the initialization sequence.  No locking is
needed around the writes to __default_pthread_attr because the
process is single-threaded at this point.

78b31cc834 elf: Partially initialize ld.so after static dlopen (bug 20802)
After static dlopen, a copy of ld.so is loaded into the inner
namespace, but that copy is not initialized at all.  Some
architectures run into serious problems as result, which is why the
_dl_var_init mechanism was invented.  With libpthread moving into
libc and parts into ld.so, more architectures impacted, so it makes
sense to switch to a generic mechanism which performs the partial
initialization.

As a result, getauxval now works after static dlopen (bug 20802).

This trivial patch attemps to fix BZ 24106. Basically the bash locally
used when building glibc on the host shall not leak on the installed
glibc, as the system where it is installed might be different and use
another bash location.

572bd547d5 elf: Fix DTV gap reuse logic [BZ #27135]
For some reason only dlopen failure caused dtv gaps to be reused.

It is possible that the intent was to never reuse modids for a
different module, but after dlopen failure all gaps are reused
not just the ones caused by the unfinished dlopened.

So the code has to handle reused modids already which seems to
work, however the data races at thread creation and tls access
(see bug 19329 and bug 27111) may be more severe if slots are
reused so this is scheduled after those fixes. I think fixing
the races are not simpler if reuse is disallowed and reuse has
other benefits, so set GL(dl_tls_dtv_gaps) whenever entries are
removed from the middle of the slotinfo list. The value does
not have to be correct: incorrect true value causes the next
modid query to do a slotinfo walk, incorrect false will leave
gaps and new entries are added at the end.

Fixes bug 27135.

Test concurrent dlopen and pthread_create when the loaded modules have

nptl/tst-stack4 test.

The dlopened module has 100 DT_NEEDED dependencies with TLS, they were
reused from an existing TLS test. The number of created threads during
dlopen depends on filesystem speed and hardware, but at most 3 threads
are alive at a time to limit resource usage.

f4f8f4d4e0 elf: Use relaxed atomics for racy accesses [BZ #19329]
This is a follow up patch to the fix for bug 19329.  This adds relaxed
MO atomics to accesses that were previously data races but are now
race conditions, and where relaxed MO is sufficient.

The race conditions all follow the pattern that the write is behind the
dlopen lock, but a read can happen concurrently (e.g. during tls access)
without holding the lock.  For slotinfo entries the read value only
matters if it reads from a synchronized write in dlopen or dlclose,
otherwise the related dtv entry is not valid to access so it is fine
to leave it in an inconsistent state.  The same applies for
GL(dl_tls_max_dtv_idx) and GL(dl_tls_generation), but there the
algorithm relies on the fact that the read of the last synchronized
write is an increasing value.

1387ad6225 elf: Fix data races in pthread_create and TLS access [BZ #19329]
DTV setup at thread creation (_dl_allocate_tls_init) is changed
to take the dlopen lock, GL(dl_load_lock).  Avoiding data races
here without locks would require design changes: the map that is
accessed for static TLS initialization here may be concurrently
freed by dlclose.  That use after free may be solved by only
locking around static TLS setup or by ensuring dlclose does not
free modules with static TLS, however currently every link map
with TLS has to be accessed at least to see if it needs static
TLS.  And even if that's solved, still a lot of atomics would be
needed to synchronize DTV related globals without a lock. So fix
both bug 19329 and bug 27111 with a lock that prevents DTV setup
running concurrently with dlopen or dlclose.

_dl_update_slotinfo at TLS access still does not use any locks
so CONCURRENCY NOTES are added to explain the synchronization.
The early exit from the slotinfo walk when max_modid is reached
is not strictly necessary, but does not hurt either.

An incorrect acquire load was removed from _dl_resize_dtv: it
did not synchronize with any release store or fence and
synchronization is now handled separately at thread creation
and TLS access time.

There are still a number of racy read accesses to globals that
will be changed to relaxed MO atomics in a followup patch. This
should not introduce regressions compared to existing behaviour
and avoid cluttering the main part of the fix.

Not all TLS access related data races got fixed here: there are
additional races at lazy tlsdesc relocations see bug 27137.

b2964eb1d9 dlfcn: Failures after dlmopen should not terminate process [BZ #24772]
Commit 9e78f6f6e7 ("Implement
_dl_catch_error, _dl_signal_error in libc.so [BZ #16628]") has the
side effect that distinct namespaces, as created by dlmopen, now have
separate implementations of the rtld exception mechanism.  This means
that the call to _dl_catch_error from libdl in a secondary namespace
does not actually install an exception handler because the
thread-local variable catch_hook in the libc.so copy in the secondary
namespace is distinct from that of the base namepace.  As a result, a
dlsym/dlopen/... failure in a secondary namespace terminates the process
with a dynamic linker error because it looks to the exception handler
mechanism as if no handler has been installed.

This commit restores GLRO (dl_catch_error) and uses it to set the
handler in the base namespace.

2ed18c5b53 Fix SXID_ERASE behavior in setuid programs (BZ #27471)
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.

ROP gadgets (see Marco-Gisbert and Ripoll-Ripoll, "return-to-csu: A
New Method to Bypass 64-bit Linux ASLR").  These functions are not
needed in dynamically-linked binaries because DT_INIT/DT_INIT_ARRAY
are already processed by the dynamic linker.  However, the dynamic
linker skipped the main program for some reason.  For maximum
backwards compatibility, this is not changed, and instead, the main
map is consulted from __libc_start_main if the init function argument
is a NULL pointer.

For statically linked binaries, the old approach based on linker
symbols is still used because there is nothing else available.

A new symbol version __libc_start_main@@GLIBC_2.34 is introduced because
new binaries running on an old libc would not run their ELF
constructors, leading to difficult-to-debug issues.

5a664d7ae8 nptl: Move elision implementations into libc
The elision interfaces are closely aligned between the targets that
implement them, so declare them in the generic <lowlevellock.h>
file.

Empty .c stubs are provided, so that fewer makefile updates
under sysdeps are needed.  Also simplify initialization via
__libc_early_init.

The symbols __lll_clocklock_elision, __lll_lock_elision,
__lll_trylock_elision, __lll_unlock_elision, __pthread_force_elision
move into libc.  For the time being, non-hidden references are used
from libpthread to access them, but once that part of libpthread
is moved into libc, hidden symbols will be used again.  (Hidden
references seem desirable to reduce the likelihood of transactions
aborts.)

ebcf45a16c elf: Do not copy vDSO soname when setting up link map
The kernel does not put the vDSO at special addresses, so writev can
write the name directly.  Also remove the incorrect comment about not
setting l_name.

Andy Lutomirski confirmed in
<https://lore.kernel.org/linux-api/442A16C0-AE5A-4A44-B261-FE6F817EAF3C@amacapital.net/>
that this copy is not necessary.

228f30ab47 tunables: Disallow negative values for some tunables
The glibc.malloc.mmap_max tunable as well as al of the INT_32 tunables
don't have use for negative values, so pin the hardcoded limits in the
non-negative range of INT.  There's no real benefit in any of those
use cases for the extended range of unsigned, so I have avoided added
a new type to keep things simple.
