_int_realloc is correctly declared at the top to be static, but
incorrectly defined without the static keyword. Fix that. The
generated binaries have identical code.
The tcache allocator layer uses the tcache pointer as a key to
identify a block that may be freed twice. Since this is in the
application data area, an attacker exploiting a use-after-free could
potentially get access to the entire tcache structure through this
key. A detailed write-up was provided by Awarau here:
https://awaraucom.wordpress.com/2020/07/19/house-of-io-remastered/
Replace this static pointer use for key checking with one that is
generated at malloc initialization. The first attempt is through
getrandom with a fallback to random_bits(), which is a simple
pseudo-random number generator based on the clock. The fallback ought
to be sufficient since the goal of the randomness is only to make the
key arbitrary enough that it is very unlikely to collide with user
data.

The realloc (NULL, 0) test in tst-realloc fails with gcc 7.x but
passes with newer gcc. This is because a newer gcc transforms the
realloc call to malloc (0), thus masking the bug in mcheck.
Disable the test with mcheck for now. The malloc removal patchset

The variable and function pair appear to provide a way for users to
set conditional breakpoints in mtrace when a specific address is

this interface in the manual either, so it appears to have been a hack
that got added to debug malloc. Deprecate these symbols and do not

Austin Group issue 62 [1] dropped the async-signal-safe requirement
for fork and provided a async-signal-safe _Fork replacement that
does not run the atfork handlers. It will be included in the next
POSIX standard.
It allow to close a long standing issue to make fork AS-safe (BZ#4737).
As indicated on the bug, besides the internal lock for the atfork
handlers itself; there is no guarantee that the handlers itself will
not introduce more AS-safe issues.
The idea is synchronize fork with the required internal locks to allow
children in multithread processes to use mostly of standard function
(even though POSIX states only AS-safe function should be used). On
signal handles, _Fork should be used intead and only AS-safe functions
should be used.
For testing, the new tst-_Fork only check basic usage. I also added
a new tst-mallocfork3 which uses the same strategy to check for
deadlock of tst-mallocfork2 but using threads instead of subprocesses
(and it does deadlock if it replaces _Fork with fork).

To help detect common kinds of memory (and other resource) management
bugs, GCC 11 adds support for the detection of mismatched calls to
allocation and deallocation functions. At each call site to a known
deallocation function GCC checks the set of allocation functions
the former can be paired with and, if the two don't match, issues
a -Wmismatched-dealloc warning (something similar happens in C++
for mismatched calls to new and delete). GCC also uses the same
mechanism to detect attempts to deallocate objects not allocated
by any allocation function (or pointers past the first byte into
allocated objects) by -Wfree-nonheap-object.
This support is enabled for built-in functions like malloc and free.
To extend it beyond those, GCC extends attribute malloc to designate
a deallocation function to which pointers returned from the allocation
function may be passed to deallocate the allocated objects. Another,
optional argument designates the positional argument to which
the pointer must be passed.
This change is the first step in enabling this extended support for
Glibc.
(FYI, this is a repost of
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2019-July/105035.html now

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.
So I have looked for all occurences of @BASH@ or $(BASH) in installed
files, and replaced it by /bin/bash. This was suggested by Florian
Weimer in the bug report.

Calling free directly may end up freeing a pointer allocated by the
dynamic loader using malloc from libc.so in the base namespace using
the allocator from libc.so in a secondary namespace, which results in
crashes.
This commit redirects the free call through GLRO and the dynamic
linker, to reach the correct namespace. It also cleans up the dlerror
handling along the way, so that pthread_setspecific is no longer
needed (which avoids triggering bug 24774).
This is a workaround (hack) for a gcc optimization issue (PR 99551).
Without this the generated code may evaluate the expression in the
cold path which causes performance regression for small allocations

The previous patch ensured that all chunk to mem computations use

The difference between chunk2mem and chunk2rawmem is that the latter
does not get the memory tag for the returned pointer. It turns out
chunk2rawmem almost always works:
The input of chunk2mem is a chunk pointer that is untagged so it can
access the chunk header. All memory that is not user allocated heap
memory is untagged, which in the current implementation means that it
has the 0 tag, but this patch does not rely on the tag value. The
patch relies on that chunk operations are either done on untagged
chunks or without doing memory access to the user owned part.
Internal interface contracts:
sysmalloc: Returns untagged memory.
_int_malloc: Returns untagged memory.
_int_free: Takes untagged memory.
_int_memalign: Returns untagged memory.
_int_realloc: Takes and returns tagged memory.
So only _int_realloc and functions outside this list need care.
Alignment checks do not need the right tag and tcache works with
untagged memory.
tag_at was kept in realloc after an mremap, which is not strictly
necessary, since the pointer is only used to retag the memory, but this
way the tag is guaranteed to be different from the old tag.

This is a pure refactoring change that does not affect behaviour.

The user owned memory for a given chunk starts at chunk2mem(p) and
the size is memsize(p). It is not valid to use on dumped heap chunks.

Use the runtime check where possible: it should not cause slow down in

The branches may be better optimized since mtag_enabled is widely used.
Granule size larger than a chunk header is not supported since then we

A flag check can be faster than function pointers because of how

Memory tagging wrapper functions are moved to malloc.c from arena.c and
the logic now checks mmap_enabled. The definition of tag_new_usable is
moved after chunk related definitions.
This refactoring also allows using mtag_enabled checks instead of
USE_MTAG ifdefs when memory tagging support only changes code logic
when memory tagging is enabled at runtime. Note: an "if (false)" code

This essentially folds compat_symbol_unique functionality into
compat_symbol.
This change eliminates the need for intermediate aliases for defining
multiple symbol versions, for both compat_symbol and versioned_symbol.
Some binutils versions do not suport multiple versions per symbol on
some targets, so aliases are automatically introduced, similar to what
compat_symbol_unique did. To reduce symbol table sizes, a configure
check is added to avoid these aliases if they are not needed.
The new mechanism works with data symbols as well as function symbols,
due to the way an assembler-level redirect is used. It is not
compatible with weak symbols for old binutils versions, which is why
the definition of __malloc_initialize_hook had to be changed. This
is not a loss of functionality because weak symbols do not matter
to dynamic linking.
The placeholder symbol needs repeating in nptl/libpthread-compat.c
now that compat_symbol is used, but that seems more obvious than
introducing yet another macro.
A subtle difference was that compat_symbol_unique made the symbol
global automatically. compat_symbol does not do this, so static
had to be removed from the definition of
__libpthread_version_placeholder.
