This makes it more likely that the compiler can compute the strlen
argument in _startup_fatal at compile time, which is required to
avoid a dependency on strlen this early during process startup.

TLS_INIT_TCB_ALIGN is not actually used. TLS_TCB_ALIGN was likely
introduced to support a configuration where the thread pointer
has not the same alignment as THREAD_SELF. Only ia64 seems to use
that, but for the stack/pointer guard, not for storing tcbhead_t.
Some ports use TLS_TCB_OFFSET and TLS_PRE_TCB_SIZE to shift
the thread pointer, potentially landing in a different residue class
modulo the alignment, but the changes should not impact that.
In general, given that TLS variables have their own alignment
requirements, having different alignment for the (unshifted) thread
pointer and struct pthread would potentially result in dynamic
offsets, leading to more complexity.
hppa had different values before: __alignof__ (tcbhead_t), which
seems to be 4, and __alignof__ (struct pthread), which was 8
(old default) and is now 32. However, it defines THREAD_SELF as:
/* Return the thread descriptor for the current thread. */
# define THREAD_SELF \
({ struct pthread *__self; \
__self = __get_cr27(); \
__self - 1; \
})
So the thread pointer points after struct pthread (hence __self - 1),
and they have to have the same alignment on hppa as well.
Similarly, on ia64, the definitions were different. We have:
# define TLS_PRE_TCB_SIZE \
(sizeof (struct pthread) \
+ (PTHREAD_STRUCT_END_PADDING < 2 * sizeof (uintptr_t) \
? ((2 * sizeof (uintptr_t) + __alignof__ (struct pthread) - 1) \
& ~(__alignof__ (struct pthread) - 1)) \
: 0))
# define THREAD_SELF \
((struct pthread *) ((char *) __thread_self - TLS_PRE_TCB_SIZE))
And TLS_PRE_TCB_SIZE is a multiple of the struct pthread alignment
(confirmed by the new _Static_assert in sysdeps/ia64/libc-tls.c).
On m68k, we have a larger gap between tcbhead_t and struct pthread.
But as far as I can tell, the port is fine with that. The definition
of TCB_OFFSET is sufficient to handle the shifted TCB scenario.
This fixes commit 23c77f6018
("nptl: Increase default TCB alignment to 32").

We stopped adding "Contributed by" or similar lines in sources in 2012
in favour of git logs and keeping the Contributors section of the
glibc manual up to date. Removing these lines makes the license
header a bit more consistent across files and also removes the
possibility of error in attribution when license blocks or files are
copied across since the contributed-by lines don't actually reflect
reality in those cases.
Move all "Contributed by" and similar lines (Written by, Test by,

For some architectures, the two functions are aliased, so these
symbols need to be moved at the same time.
The symbols were moved using scripts/move-symbol-to-libc.py.
The current approach is to do this optimizations at a higher level,
in generic code, so that single-threaded cases can be specifically
targeted.
Furthermore, using IS_IN (libc) as a compile-time indicator that
all locks are private is no longer correct once process-shared lock
implementations are moved into libc.
The generic <lowlevellock.h> is not compatible with assembler code
(obviously), so it's necessary to remove two long-unused #includes.

The previous definition of THREAD_SELF did not tell the compiler
that %fs (or %gs) usage is invalid for the !DL_LOOKUP_GSCOPE_LOCK
case in _dl_lookup_symbol_x. As a result, ld.so could try to use the
TCB before it was initialized.
As the comment in tls.h explains, asm volatile is undesirable here.
Using the __seg_fs (or __seg_gs) namespace does not interfere with
optimization, and expresses that THREAD_SELF is potentially trapping.
Now __thread_gscope_wait (the function behind THREAD_GSCOPE_WAIT,
formerly __wait_lookup_done) can be implemented directly in ld.so,
eliminating the unprotected GL (dl_wait_lookup_done) function
pointer.

There are several compiler implementations that allow large stack
allocations to jump over the guard page at the end of the stack and
corrupt memory beyond that. See CVE-2017-1000364.
Compilers can emit code to probe the stack such that the guard page
cannot be skipped, but on aarch64 the probe interval is 64K by default
instead of the minimum supported page size (4K).
This patch enforces at least 64K guard on aarch64 unless the guard
is disabled by setting its size to 0. For backward compatibility
reasons the increased guard is not reported, so it is only observable
by exhausting the address space or parsing /proc/self/maps on linux.
On other targets the patch has no effect. If the stack probe interval
is larger than a page size on a target then ARCH_MIN_GUARD_SIZE can
be defined to get large enough stack guard on libc allocated stacks.
The patch does not affect threads with user allocated stacks.

In commit cba595c350 and commit
f81ddabffd, ABI compatibility with
applications was broken by increasing the size of the on-stack
allocated __pthread_unwind_buf_t beyond the oringal size.
Applications only have the origianl space available for
__pthread_unwind_register, and __pthread_unwind_next to use,
any increase in the size of __pthread_unwind_buf_t causes these
functions to write beyond the original structure into other
on-stack variables leading to segmentation faults in common
applications like vlc. The only workaround is to version those
functions which operate on the old sized objects, but this must
happen in glibc 2.28.
Thank you to Andrew Senkevich, H.J. Lu, and Aurelien Jarno, for
submitting reports and tracking the issue down.
The commit reverts the above mentioned commits and testing on
x86_64 shows that the ABI compatibility is restored. A tst-cleanup1
regression test linked with an older glibc now passes when run
with the newly built glibc. Previously a tst-cleanup1 linked with
an older glibc would segfault when run with an affected glibc build.

posix/wordexp-test.c used libc-internal.h for PTR_ALIGN_DOWN; similar

This patch remove the PID cache and usage in current GLIBC code. Current
usage is mainly used a performance optimization to avoid the syscall,
however it adds some issues:
- The exposed clone syscall will try to set pid/tid to make the new
thread somewhat compatible with current GLIBC assumptions. This cause
a set of issue with new workloads and usecases (such as BZ#17214 and
[1]) as well for new internal usage of clone to optimize other algorithms
(such as clone plus CLONE_VM for posix_spawn, BZ#19957).
- The caching complexity also added some bugs in the past [2] [3] and
requires more effort of each port to handle such requirements (for
both clone and vfork implementation).
- Caching performance gain in mainly on getpid and some specific
code paths. The getpid performance leverage is questionable [4],
either by the idea of getpid being a hotspot as for the getpid
implementation itself (if it is indeed a justifiable hotspot a
vDSO symbol could let to a much more simpler solution).
Other usage is mainly for non usual code paths, such as pthread
cancellation signal and handling.
For thread creation (on stack allocation) the code simplification in fact
adds some performance gain due the no need of transverse the stack cache
and invalidate each element pid.
Other thread usages will require a direct getpid syscall, such as
cancellation/setxid signal, thread cancellation, thread fail path (at
create_thread), and thread signal (pthread_kill and pthread_sigqueue).
However these are hardly usual hotspots and I think adding a syscall is
justifiable.
It also simplifies both the clone and vfork arch-specific implementation.
And by review each fork implementation there are some discrepancies that
this patch also solves:
- microblaze clone/vfork does not set/reset the pid/tid field
- hppa uses the default vfork implementation that fallback to fork.
Since vfork is deprecated I do not think we should bother with it.
The patch also removes the TID caching in clone. My understanding for
such semantic is try provide some pthread usage after a user program
issue clone directly (as done by thread creation with CLONE_PARENT_SETTID
and pthread tid member). However, as stated before in multiple discussions
threads, GLIBC provides clone syscalls without further supporting all this
semantics.
I ran a full make check on x86_64, x32, i686, armhf, aarch64, and powerpc64le.
For sparc32, sparc64, and mips I ran the basic fork and vfork tests from
posix/ folder (on a qemu system). So it would require further testing
on alpha, hppa, ia64, m68k, nios2, s390, sh, and tile (I excluded microblaze
because it is already implementing the patch semantic regarding clone/vfork).

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.
[BZ #17319]
* sysdeps/i386/nptl/tls.h (TLS_INIT_TP): Use INTERNAL_SYSCALL
to call set_thread_area instead of hand written asm.
(__NR_set_thread_area): Removed define.
(TLS_FLAG_WRITABLE): Likewise.
(__ASSUME_SET_THREAD_AREA): Remove check.
(TLS_EBX_ARG): Remove define.
(TLS_LOAD_EBX): Likewise.
This patch makes files using __ASSUME_* macros include
<kernel-features.h> explicitly, rather than relying on some other
header (such as tls.h, lowlevellock.h or pthreadP.h) to include it
implicitly. (I omitted cases where I've already posted or am testing
the patch that stops the file from needing __ASSUME_* at all.) This
accords with the general principle of making source files include the
headers for anything they use, and also helps make it safe to remove
<kernel-features.h> includes from any file that doesn't use
__ASSUME_* (some of those may be stray includes left behind after
increasing the minimum kernel version, others may never have been
needed or may have become obsolete after some other change).
Tested x86_64 that the disassembly of installed shared libraries is
unchanged by this patch.
