It turns out the startup code in csu/elf-init.c has a perfect pair of
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.
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
Wrapping the _start function with ENTRY and END to insert ENDBR32 at
function entry when CET is enabled. Since _start now includes CFI,
without "cfi_undefined (eip)", unwinder may not terminate at _start
and we will get
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

* sysdeps/i386/start.S: Include <sysdep.h>
(_start): Use ENTRY/END to insert ENDBR32 at entry when CET is
enabled. Add cfi_undefined (eip).

Don't use "leal main@GOTOFF(%ebx), %eax" since main may be in a
shared object. Linker will convert "movl main@GOT(%ebx), %eax"
to "leal main@GOTOFF(%ebx), %eax" if main is defined locally.
* sysdeps/i386/start.S: Replace "leal main@GOT(%ebx), %eax" with
"movl main@GOTOFF(%ebx), %eax".
Since start.o may be compiled as PIC, we should check PIC instead of
SHARED. Also avoid dynamic relocation against main in static PIE since
_start is the entry point before the executable is relocated.
* sysdeps/i386/start.S (_start): Check Check PIC instead of
SHARED. Avoid dynamic relocation against main in static PIE.
