When glibc is built with -fstack-check, trying to use posix_spawn can
lead to segfaults due to gcc internally probing stack memory too far.
The new spawn API will allocate a minimum of 1 page, but the stack
checking logic might probe a couple of pages. When it tries to walk
them, everything falls apart.
The gcc internal docs [1] state the default interval checking is one
page. Which means we need two pages (the current one, and the next
probed). No target currently defines it larger.
Further, it mentions that the default minimum stack size needed to
recover from an overflow is 4/8KiB for sjlj or 8/12KiB for others.
But some Linux targets (like mips and ppc) go up to 16KiB (and some
non-Linux targets go up to 24KiB).
Let's create each child with a minimum of 32KiB slack space to support
them all, and give us future breathing room.
No test is added as existing ones crash. Even a simple call is
enough to trigger the problem:
char *argv[] = { "/bin/ls", NULL };
posix_spawn(NULL, "/bin/ls", NULL, NULL, argv, NULL);
[1] https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-6.3.0/gccint/Stack-Checking.html
The ia64-specific clone2 call expects the base of the stack mapping and
the stack size as sep arguments, not an initial stack value as on other
stack-grows-down architectures. Reuse the stack-grows-up macro so we
pass in the right stack base.

posix/wordexp-test.c used libc-internal.h for PTR_ALIGN_DOWN; similar
to what was done with libc-diag.h, I have split the definitions of
cast_to_integer, ALIGN_UP, ALIGN_DOWN, PTR_ALIGN_UP, and PTR_ALIGN_DOWN
to a new header, libc-pointer-arith.h.
It then occurred to me that the remaining declarations in libc-internal.h
are mostly to do with early initialization, and probably most of the
files including it, even in the core code, don't need it anymore. Indeed,
only 19 files actually need what remains of libc-internal.h. 23 others
need libc-diag.h instead, and 12 need libc-pointer-arith.h instead.
No file needs more than one of them, and 16 don't need any of them!
So, with this patch, libc-internal.h stops including libc-diag.h as
well as losing the pointer arithmetic macros, and all including files
are adjusted.

cast_to_integer, ALIGN_UP, ALIGN_DOWN, PTR_ALIGN_UP, and

On posix_spawn open file action (issued by posix_spawn_file_actions_addopen)
POSIX states that if fildes was already an open file descriptor, it shall be
closed before the new file is openedi [1]. This avoid pontential issues when
posix_spawn plus addopen action is called with the process already at maximum
number of file descriptor opened and also for multiple actions on single-open
special paths (like /dev/watchdog).
This fixes its behavior on Linux posix_spawn implementation and also adds
a tests to check for its behavior.
Checked on x86_64.
* posix/Makefile (tests): Add tst-spawn3.
* posix/tst-spawn3.c: New file.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/spawni.c (__spawni_child): Close file descriptor
if it is already opened for open action.

Using CLONE_VFORK already ensures that the parent does not run until the
child has either exec'ed succesfully or called _exit. Hence we don't
need to read from a CLOEXEC pipe to ensure proper synchronization - we
just make explicit use of the fact the the child and parent run in the
same VM, so the child can write an error code to a field of the
posix_spawn_args struct instead of sending it through a pipe.
To ensure that this mechanism really works, the parent initializes the
field to -1 and the child writes 0 before execing.
This eliminates some annoying bookkeeping that is necessary to avoid
the file actions from clobbering the write end of the pipe, and
getting rid of the pipe creation in the first place means fewer system
calls (four in the parent, usually one in the child) and fewer
chanches for the spawn to fail (e.g. if we're close to EMFILE).
Checked on x86_64 and i686.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/spawni.c (posix_spawn_args): Remove pipe
field, add err field.
(__spawni_child): Report error through err member instead of pipe.
(__spawnix): Likewise.
This patch correctly block and unblocks all signals when executing
Linux posix_spawn by using the __libc_signal_{un}block_all functions
instead of default sigprocmask. The latter might remove both
SIGCANCEL and SIGSETXID from the blocked signal list.
Checked on x86_64, i686, powerpc64le, and aarch64.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/spawni.c (__spawnix): Correctly block and unblock
all signals when executing the clone vfork child.
(SIGALL_SET): Remove macro.
This patch correctly enable and disable asynchronous cancellation on
Linux posix_spawn. Current code invert the logic by enabling and
disabling instead. It also adds a new test to check if posix_spawn
is not a cancellation entrypoint.

general convention one.

* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/spawni.c (__spawnix): Fix implict checks
style.
Current Linux posix_spawn spawn do not test if the pid argument is
valid before trying to update it for success case. This patch fixes
it.
Tested on x86_64 and i686.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/spawni.c (__spawnix): Fix invalid memory
access where posix_spawn success and pid argument is null.
* posix/tst-spawn.c (do_test): Add posix_spawn null pid argument for
success case.
This patch implements a new posix_spawn{p} implementation for Linux. The main
difference is it uses the clone syscall directly with CLONE_VM and CLONE_VFORK
flags and a direct allocated stack. The new stack and start function solves
most the vfork limitation (possible parent clobber due stack spilling). The
remaning issue are related to signal handling:
1. That no signal handlers must run in child context, to avoid corrupt
parent's state.
2. Child must synchronize with parent to enforce stack deallocation and
to possible return execv issues.
The first one is solved by blocking all signals in child, even NPTL-internal
ones (SIGCANCEL and SIGSETXID). The second issue is done by a stack allocation
in parent and a synchronization with using a pipe or waitpid (in case or error).
The pipe has the advantage of allowing the child signal an exec error (checked
with new tst-spawn2 test).
There is an inherent race condition in pipe2 usage for architectures that do not
support the syscall directly. In such cases the a pipe plus fctnl is used
instead and it may lead to file descriptor leak in parent (as decribed by fcntl
documentation).
The child process stack is allocate with a mmap with MAP_STACK flag using
default architecture stack size. Although it is slower than use a stack buffer
from parent, it allows some slack for the compatibility code to run scripts
with no shebang (which may use a buffer with size depending of argument list
count).
Performance should be similar to the vfork default posix implementation and
way faster than fork path (vfork on mostly linux ports are basically
clone with CLONE_VM plus CLONE_VFORK). The only difference is the syscalls
required for the stack allocation/deallocation.
It fixes BZ#10354, BZ#14750, and BZ#18433.
Tested on i386, x86_64, powerpc64le, and aarch64.
