This patch fixes bugs in ldbl-128ibm frexpl for 32-bit systems shown
up by warnings:
../sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_frexpl.c:82:4: warning: left shift count >= width of type
../sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_frexpl.c:129:5: warning: left shift count >= width of type
This did in fact show up in test-ldouble.out (alongside all the other
problems there ... maybe we should again consider running the libm
tests at finer granularity from the makefiles) as already covered by
the testsuite after the previous patch that fixed these bugs for
64-bit systems. The fix is simply using 1LL instead of 1L when
shifting by 52.
Tested for powerpc32 (soft float).
[BZ #16619]
[BZ #16740]
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_frexpl.c (__frexpl): Use 1LL << 52
instead of 1L << 52.
perror, an ISO C function, uses fileno, which is not an ISO C
function. This patch makes it use __fileno instead. (The nearby call
to fdopen is not a problem because that's #defined to _IO_new_fdopen.)
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that installed stripped shared
libraries are unchanged by this patch).

If we drop it here, we will fail to detect a duplicate trailing dot
later on. Retaining, OTOH, has no ill effects whatsoever, and it even
saves us the trouble of copying the domain name minus the trailing
dot, like we used to do.

nss_db uses nss_files code for services, but a continue on protocol
mismatch that doesn't affect nss_files skipped the code that advanced
to the next db entry. Any one of these changes would suffice to fix
it, but fixing both makes them both safer to reuse elsewhere.

The function wordexp() fails to properly handle the WRDE_NOCMD
flag when processing arithmetic inputs in the form of "$((... ``))"
where "..." can be anything valid. The backticks in the arithmetic
epxression are evaluated by in a shell even if WRDE_NOCMD forbade
command substitution. This allows an attacker to attempt to pass
dangerous commands via constructs of the above form, and bypass
the WRDE_NOCMD flag. This patch fixes this by checking for WRDE_NOCMD
in exec_comm(), the only place that can execute a shell. All other
checks for WRDE_NOCMD are superfluous and removed.
We expand the testsuite and add 3 new regression tests of roughly
the same form but with a couple of nested levels.
On top of the 3 new tests we add fork validation to the WRDE_NOCMD
testing. If any forks are detected during the execution of a wordexp()
call with WRDE_NOCMD, the test is marked as failed. This is slightly
heuristic since vfork might be used in the future, but it provides a
higher level of assurance that no shells were executed as part of
command substitution with WRDE_NOCMD in effect. In addition it doesn't
require libpthread or libdl, instead we use the public implementation
namespace function __register_atfork (already part of the public ABI
for libpthread).
Tested on x86_64 with no regressions.
libm uses symbols mpone and mptwo for internal purposes. This patch
moves them to the implementation namespace (__mpone and __mptwo).

As discussed in the thread starting at
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-10/msg00792.html>, and
continuing into November, this patch increases the minimum GCC version
for building glibc to 4.6 (there seemed to be no clear consensus for
4.7). In particular, this allows us to use #pragma GCC diagnostic for
fine-grained warning control with -Werror (subject to establishing a
suitable policy for that use). The documentation has a statement, as
requested, about the most recent GCC version tested for building
glibc, and I've updated <https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Release> to
refer to updating that statement. A NEWS entry is added for this
change, although previous such changes didn't get them.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that installed shared libraries are
unchanged by this patch).
* configure.ac (libc_cv_compiler_ok): Require GCC 4.6 or later.
* configure: Regenerated.
* manual/install.texi (Tools for Compilation): Document a

For 32-bit platforms, strtoll and strtoull are strong symbols in libc,
but they are not in ISO C90, and are brought in by references to
__strtoll_internal / __strtoull_internal from scanf. (For 64-bit
platforms, they are properly weak.) This patch makes them weak for
32-bit (it has a side-effect of making other symbols weak that don't
need to be weak, such as strtol, but that's harmless).
Tested for x86 (testsuite, and that the disassembly of installed
shared libraries is unchanged by the patch). This fixes all 120
unXFAILed FAILs of the new linknamespace tests seen for x86 (in fact,
there are now seven XPASSes of those tests for x86
XPASS: conform/POSIX2008/fcntl.h/linknamespace

so suggesting that the failures seen for those on x86_64 are in some
way architecture-specific or 64-bit-specific).

(strtol): Rename to __strtol and define as weak alias of

intl/localealias.c is brought in by ISO C functions, but uses
fgets_unlocked, which is not an ISO C function. This patch changes
this to use __fgets_unlocked.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that stripped installed shared
libraries are unchanged by the patch).
[BZ #17589]
* intl/localealias.c [_LIBC] (FGETS): Use __fgets_unlocked instead
of fgets_unlocked.
Locale code, brought in by ISO C functions, calls memmem, which is not
an ISO C function. This isn't an ISO C conformance bug, because all
mem* names are reserved, but glibc practice is not to rely on that
reservation (thus, memmem is only declared in string.h if __USE_GNU
even though ISO C would allow it to be declared unconditionally, for
example). This patch changes that code to use __memmem.
Note: there are uses of memmem elsewhere in glibc that I didn't
change, although it may turn out some of those also need to use
__memmem.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that disassembly of installed shared
libraries is unchanged by this patch).
[BZ #17585]
* string/memmem.c [!_LIBC] (__memmem): Define to memmem.

* include/string.h (__memmem): Declare. Use libc_hidden_proto.
* locale/findlocale.c (valid_locale_name): Use __memmem instead of

__get_nprocs is called from malloc code, but calls fgets_unlocked,
which is not an ISO C or POSIX function. This patch fixes it to call
a new __fgets_unlocked name instead.
Note: there are various other uses of fgets_unlocked in glibc's
libraries, and I haven't yet investigated which others might also be
problematic (called directly or indirectly from standard functions)
and so need to change to use __fgets_unlocked.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that disassembly of installed shared

__printf_fp calls wmemset, but that is not an ISO C90 function. This
patch fixes it to call a new __wmemset name instead (with wmemset
being a weak alias).
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that disassembly of installed shared

* wcsmbs/wmemset.c (wmemset): Rename to __wmemset and define as
weak alias of __wmemset. Use libc_hidden_weak.

* stdio-common/printf_fp.c (___printf_fp): Call __wmemset instead

Various glibc functions call __stpcpy and __mempcpy for namespace
reasons instead of plain stpcpy and mempcpy. But __stpcpy and
__mempcpy are macros that call __builtin_stpcpy and __builtin_mempcpy,
and unless GCC optimizes the calls, they end up calling the C
functions stpcpy and mempcpy.
For calls from within shared libc, libc_hidden_builtin_proto ensures
that calls to those C functions are in turn mapped to call __GI_stpcpy
and __GI_mempcpy. However, for static libc, and for calls from shared
libraries other than libc, the ELF symbols stpcpy and mempcpy end up
getting called, breaking the ISO C namespace (in the case of stpcpy)
or glibc conventions about not relying on the "future library
directions" reservations (in the case of mempcpy).
This patch fixes this by adding declarations of these functions to
include/string.h, under an appropriate condition, with __asm__ used to
change the assembler name used for calls (the mempcpy case was
previously discussed, and the approach for the fix is as I suggested
in <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2013-02/msg00063.html>).
Tested for x86_64 with the testsuite; also checked that dcigettext.o
(an example previously noted of undesired calls to stpcpy and mempcpy)
now calls __stpcpy and __mempcpy instead, as do non-libc shared
libraries (__stpcpy and __mempcpy were already exported from shared
libc). Disassembly of installed shared libraries isn't easy to
compare because of reordered PLT entries resulting from the change in
functions called (libnsl, libnss_compat, libnss_dns, libnss_files,
libnss_hesiod, libnss_nis, libnss_nisplus, libpthread, librt all have
such changes).
[BZ #17573]
* include/string.h [NOT_IN_libc || !SHARED] (mempcpy): Declare
with asm name __mempcpy.
[NOT_IN_libc || !SHARED] (stpcpy): Declare with asm name __stpcpy.
rawmemchr is not an ISO C function, but __rawmemchr is called from ISO
C functions, so rawmemchr should be a weak alias. On most
architecture it is, but x86_64 defines the function as rawmemchr with
__rawmemchr as a strong alias. This patch makes x86_64 follow the
same arrangements as other architectures.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that disassembly of installed shared
libraries is unchanged by the patch).
[BZ #17572]
* sysdeps/x86_64/rawmemchr.S (rawmemchr): Rename to __rawmemchr
and define as weak alias of __rawmemchr.
(__rawmemchr): Do not define as strong alias of rawmemchr.
qsort_r is defined in the same file as qsort, but is not an ISO C
function, so should be a weak alias for __qsort_r. The uses in
getaddrinfo should also call __qsort_r, since getaddrinfo is a POSIX
function and qsort_r isn't. This patch implements this. Because nscd
uses the getaddrinfo sources outside libc, as do the tst-rfc3484
tests, a #define of __qsort_r to qsort_r is added there alongside the
similar defines for other libc-internal symbols used in getaddrinfo.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that disassembly of installed shared
libraries is unchanged by the patch).
[BZ #17571]
* stdlib/msort.c (qsort_r): Rename to __qsort_r and define as weak
alias of __qsort_r.

malloc_info is defined in the same file as malloc and free, but is not
an ISO C function, so should be a weak symbol. This patch makes it
so.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that disassembly of installed shared
libraries is unchanged by the patch).
[BZ #17570]
* malloc/malloc.c (malloc_info): Rename to __malloc_info and
define as weak alias of __malloc_info.
__getcwd is called from dcigettext.o (brought in by various ISO C
functionality), but calls rewinddir, which is not an ISO C function.
This patch makes __getcwd call __rewinddir instead and makes rewinddir
a weak alias for __rewinddir.
Since getcwd.c is shared with gnulib (albeit not merged in either
direction for a long time, and omitted from gnulib's
config/srclist.txt list of shared files) I put in a #ifndef _LIBC
define of __rewinddir to rewinddir, although a future merged version
of getcwd could end up looking significantly different.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that disassembly of installed shared
libraries is unchanged by this patch).

* sysdeps/posix/getcwd.c [!_LIBC] (__rewinddir): Define to
rewinddir.
(__getcwd): Use __rewinddir instead of rewinddir.
tzfile.c is brought in by various ISO C functions, but calls fileno,
fread_unlocked and ftello, which are not ISO C functions. This patch
adds names __fileno, __fread_unlocked and __ftello for those
functions, making tzfile.c use those new names.
Note: there are various uses of fileno elsewhere in glibc that I
didn't change, although it may turn out that some of those also need
to use __fileno.
Tested for x86_64 with the glibc testsuite. Changed line numbers in
tzfile.c cause changes in assertions, and for some reason this ends up
with different instruction choice and register allocation, affecting
the size of __tzfile_read and so making comparison of disassembly for
libc.so problematic.
[BZ #17583]
* libio/fileno.c (fileno): Rename to __fileno and define as weak
alias of __fileno. Use libc_hidden_weak.
(__fileno): Use libc_hidden_def.

Modifies the test examination in test-skeleton.c so that a test can be
successful if it is interrupted or it returns uninterrupted with the
expected status. For this both EXPECTED_SIGNAL and EXPECTED_STATUS
have to be set, as is done in tst-strcoll-overflow.c.
Completing the removal of the obsolete INTDEF / INTUSE mechanism, this
patch removes the final use - that for _dl_starting_up - replacing it
by rtld_hidden_def / rtld_hidden_proto. Having removed the last use,
the mechanism itself is also removed.
Tested for x86_64 that installed stripped shared libraries are
unchanged by the patch. (This is not much of a test since this
variable is only defined and used in the !HAVE_INLINED_SYSCALLS case.)

Here is an optimized implementation of __strchrnul. The
simplification that we don't have to track precisely why the loop
terminates (match or end-of-string) means we have to do less work in
both setup and the core inner loop. That means this should never be
slower than strchr.
As with strchr, the use of LD1 means we do not need different versions
for big-/little-endian.
Concluding the move of syscall definitions to syscalls.list, where the
removal of support for old kernel versions has made this possible,
this patch removes C definitions of pread, pread64, pwrite and
pwrite64 for powerpc64. As far as I can tell, the existing
syscalls.list definitions in
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/wordsize-64/syscalls.list should suffice to
produce results equivalent to what these C files do.

In the Linux kernel version 3.17 the signal numbers were rearranged in
order to make hppa like every other arch. Previously we started
__SIGRTMIN at 37, and that meant several pieces of important software,
including systemd, would fail to build. To support systemd we removed
SIGEMT and SIGLOST, and rearranged the others according to expected
values. This is technically an ABI incompatible change, but because
zero applications use SIGSTKFLT, SIGXCPU, SIGXFSZ and SIGSYS nothing
broke. Nothing uses SIGEMT and SIGLOST, and they were present for
HPUX compatibility which is no longer supported. Thus because nothing
breaks we don't do any compatibility work here.

This satisfies a symbol reference created with:
.symver __libc_vfork, vfork@GLIBC_2.0
where `__libc_vfork' has not been defined or referenced. In this case
the `vfork@GLIBC_2.0' reference is supposed to be discarded, however a
bug present in GAS since forever causes an undefined symbol table entry
to be created. This in turn triggers a problem in the linker that can
manifest itself by link errors such as:
ld: libpthread.so: invalid string offset 2765592330 >= 5154 for section `.dynstr'
The GAS and linker bugs need to be resolved, but we can avoid them too
by providing a `__libc_vfork' definition just like our other platforms.
[BZ #17485]
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/vfork.S (__libc_vfork): Define.
this is a path that should solve bug 15884. It complains about the performance
of strcoll(). It was found out that the runtime of strcoll() is actually bound
to strlen which is needed for calculating the size of a cache that was
installed to improve the comparison performance.
The idea for this patch was that the cache is only useful in rare cases
(strings of same length and same first-level-chars) and that it would be
better to avoid memory allocation at all. To prove this I wrote a performance
test bench-strcoll.c with test data in benchtests-strcoll.tar.gz. Also
modifications in benchtests/Makefile and localedata/Makefile are necessary to
make it work.
After removing the cache the strcoll method showed the predicted behavior
(getting slightly faster) in all but the test case for hindi word sorting.
This was due the hindi text having much more equal words than the other ones.
For equal strings the performance was worse since all comparison levels were
run through and from the second level on the cache improved the comparison
performance of the original version.
Therefore I added a bytewise test via strcmp iff the first level comparison
found that both strings did match because in this case it is very likely that
equal strings are compared. This solved the problem with the hindi test case
and improved the performance of the others.

builds a cache of the relocated PLT entries in order
to reuse them when called again through the same PLT
entry. This way the PLT entry is never completed and
the call into the resolver always results in profiling
or auditing code running.
The problem is that the PLT relocation cache size
is not computed correctly. The size of the cache
should be "Size of a relocation result structure"
x "Number of PLT-related relocations". Instead the
code erroneously computes "Size of a relocation
result" x "Number of bytes worth of PLT-related
relocations". I can only assume this was a mistake
in the understanding of the value of DT_PLTRELSZ
which is the number of bytes of PLT-related relocs.
We do have a DT_RELACOUNT entry, which is a count
for dynamic relative relocs, but we have no
DT_PLTRELCOUNT and thus we need to compute it.
This patch corrects the computation of the size of the
relocation table used by the glibc profiling code.

[BZ #17411]
* elf/dl-reloc.c (_dl_relocate_object): Allocate correct amount for
l_reloc_result.
This patch eliminates the mixture of SONAME information in
shlib-versions files and SONAME information used to generate
gnu/lib-names.h in makefiles, with the information in the makefiles
being removed so all this information comes from the shlib-versions
files.
So that gnu/lib-names.h supports multiple ABIs, it is changed to be
generated on the same basis as gnu/stubs.h: when there are multiple
ABIs, gnu/lib-names.h is a wrapper header (the same header installed
whatever ABI is being built) and separate headers such as
gnu/lib-names-64.h contain the substantive contents (only one such
header being installed by any glibc build).
The rules for building gnu/lib-names.h were moved from Makeconfig to
Makerules because they need to come after sysdeps makefiles are
included (now that "ifndef abi-variants" is a toplevel conditional on
the rules rather than $(abi-variants) being evaluated later inside the
commands for a rule).
Tested for x86_64 and x86 that the installed shared libraries are
unchanged by this patch, and examined the installed gnu/lib-names*.h
headers by hand. Also tested the case of a single ABI (where there is
just a single header installed, again like stubs.h) by hacking
abi-variants to empty for x86_64.

This patch removes the --enable-oldest-abi configure option, which has
long been bitrotten (as reported in bug 6652). The principle of
removing this option was agreed in the thread starting at
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2013-07/msg00174.html>.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 that the installed shared libraries other
than libc.so are unchanged by this patch and that libc.so disassembly
and symbol versions are unchanged (debug info changes because of
changed line numbers in csu/version.c).

The netgroups lookup code fails when one of the groups in the search
tree is empty. In such a case it only returns the leaves of the tree
after the blank netgroup. This is because the line parser returns a
NOTFOUND status when the netgroup exists but is empty. The
__getnetgrent_internal implementation needs to be fixed to try
remaining groups if the current group is entry. This patch implements
this fix. Tested on x86_64.
[BZ #17363]
* inet/getnetgrent_r.c (__internal_getnetgrent_r): Try next
group if the current group is empty.
Some types of relocations technically need to be signed rather than
unsigned: in particular ones that are used with moveli or movei,
or for jump and branch. This is almost never a problem. Jump and
branch opcodes are pretty much uniformly resolved by the static linker
(unless you omit -fpic for a shared library, which is not recommended).
The moveli and movei opcodes that need to be sign-extended generally
are for positive displacements, like the construction of the address of
main() from _start(). However, tst-pie1 ends up with main below _start
(in a different module) and the test failed due to signedness issues in
relocation handling.
This commit treats the value as signed when shifting (to preserve the
high bit) and also sign-extends the value generated from the updated
bundle when comparing with the desired bundle, which we do to make sure
no overflow occurred. As a result, the tst-pie1 test now passes.
TLS_INIT_TP in sysdeps/i386/nptl/tls.h uses some hand written asm to
generate a set_thread_area that might result in exchanging ebx and esp
around the syscall causing introspection tools like valgrind to loose
track of the user stack. Just use INTERNAL_SYSCALL which makes sure
esp isn't changed arbitrarily.
Before the patch the code would generate:
mov $0xf3,%eax
movl $0xfffff,0x8(%esp)
movl $0x51,0xc(%esp)
xchg %esp,%ebx
int $0x80
xchg %esp,%ebx
Using INTERNAL_SYSCALL instead will generate:
movl $0xfffff,0x8(%esp)
movl $0x51,0xc(%esp)
xchg %ecx,%ebx
mov $0xf3,%eax
int $0x80
xchg %ecx,%ebx
Thanks to Florian Weimer for analysing why the original code generated
the bogus esp usage:
_segdescr.desc happens to be at the top of the stack, so its address
is in %esp. The asm statement says that %3 is an input, so its value
will not change, and GCC can use %esp as the input register for the
expression &_segdescr.desc. But the constraints do not fully describe
the asm statement because the %3 register is actually modified, albeit
only temporarily.

In my powerpc32 testing I've observed misc/test-gettimebasefreq
failing.
This is a glibc build (soft-float, though that's not relevant here)
without any --with-cpu and without any special configuration of the
default CPU for GCC either. In particular, it's one not using
sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/power4/hp-timing.h (although in fact the
processor I'm using for testing is POWER4-based), so hp_timing_t is
32-bit not 64-bit. But the VDSO call being used by
INTERNAL_VSYSCALL_NO_SYSCALL_FALLBACK is generating a 64-bit result
(high part in r3, low part in r4). The code extracting that result,
however, expects a result of the type hp_timing_t as passed to
INTERNAL_VSYSCALL_NO_SYSCALL_FALLBACK, meaning that only r3 (= 0) is
used and the value in r4 is ignored. This patch fixes this by always
using uint64_t as the type in INTERNAL_VSYSCALL_NO_SYSCALL_FALLBACK -
reflecting the actual ABI (unconditional in the kernel) of that VDSO
call. This is the minimal change for this issue - no check for
overflow, no change of the type of the timebase_freq variable or the
return type of __get_clockfreq to something other than hp_timing_t
(such a change would simply move the implicit conversions to the over
callers of that function), no change to hp_timing_t itself.
Tested for powerpc32 soft float.
[BZ #17263]
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/get_clockfreq.c: Include
<stdint.h>.
(__get_clockfreq): Use uint64_t instead of hp_timing_t in
INTERNAL_VSYSCALL_NO_SYSCALL_FALLBACK call.
