Assembler sources are more difficult to convert. In many cases,

This reverts commit 6f85dbf102.
Once this change hits the release branches, it will require relinking
of all statically linked applications before static dlopen works
again, for the majority of updates on release branches: The NEWS file
is regularly updated with bug references, so the __libc_early_init
suffix changes, and static dlopen cannot find the function anymore.
While this ABI check is still technically correct (we do require
rebuilding & relinking after glibc updates to keep static dlopen
working), it is too drastic for stable release branches.

The files NEWS, include/link.h, and sysdeps/generic/ldsodefs.h
contribute to the version fingerprint used for detection. The
fingerprint can be further refined using the --with-extra-version-id
configure argument.
_dl_call_libc_early_init is replaced with _dl_lookup_libc_early_init.
The new function is used store a pointer to libc.so's
__libc_early_init function in the libc_map_early_init member of the
ld.so namespace structure. This function pointer can then be called
directly, so the separate invocation function is no longer needed.
The versioned symbol lookup needs the symbol versioning data
structures, so the initialization of libc_map and libc_map_early_init
is now done from _dl_check_map_versions, after this information
becomes available. (_dl_map_object_from_fd does not set this up
in time, so the initialization code had to be moved from there.)
This means that the separate initialization code can be removed from
dl_main because _dl_check_map_versions covers all maps, including
the initial executable loaded by the kernel. The lookup still happens
before relocation and the invocation of IFUNC resolvers, so IFUNC
resolvers are protected from ABI mismatch.
The __libc_early_init function pointer is not protected because
so little code runs between the pointer write and the invocation
(only dynamic linker code and IFUNC resolvers).

Rather than buffering 16 MiB of entropy in userspace (by way of
chacha20), simply call getrandom() every time.
This approach is doubtlessly slower, for now, but trying to prematurely
optimize arc4random appears to be leading toward all sorts of nasty
properties and gotchas. Instead, this patch takes a much more
conservative approach. The interface is added as a basic loop wrapper
around getrandom(), and then later, the kernel and libc together can
work together on optimizing that.
This prevents numerous issues in which userspace is unaware of when it
really must throw away its buffer, since we avoid buffering all
together. Future improvements may include userspace learning more from
the kernel about when to do that, which might make these sorts of
chacha20-based optimizations more possible. The current heuristic of 16
MiB is meaningless garbage that doesn't correspond to anything the
kernel might know about. So for now, let's just do something
conservative that we know is correct and won't lead to cryptographic
issues for users of this function.
This patch might be considered along the lines of, "optimization is the
root of all evil," in that the much more complex implementation it
replaces moves too fast without considering security implications,
whereas the incremental approach done here is a much safer way of going
about things. Once this lands, we can take our time in optimizing this
properly using new interplay between the kernel and userspace.
getrandom(0) is used, since that's the one that ensures the bytes
returned are cryptographically secure. But on systems without it, we
fallback to using /dev/urandom. This is unfortunate because it means
opening a file descriptor, but there's not much of a choice. Secondly,
as part of the fallback, in order to get more or less the same
properties of getrandom(0), we poll on /dev/random, and if the poll
succeeds at least once, then we assume the RNG is initialized. This is a
rough approximation, as the ancient "non-blocking pool" initialized
after the "blocking pool", not before, and it may not port back to all
ancient kernels, though it does to all kernels supported by glibc
(≥3.2), so generally it's the best approximation we can do.
The motivation for including arc4random, in the first place, is to have
source-level compatibility with existing code. That means this patch
doesn't attempt to litigate the interface itself. It does, however,
choose a conservative approach for implementing it.

Checked on aarch64-linux-gnu.
The implementation is based on scalar Chacha20 with per-thread cache.
It uses getrandom or /dev/urandom as fallback to get the initial entropy,
and reseeds the internal state on every 16MB of consumed buffer.
To improve performance and lower memory consumption the per-thread cache
is allocated lazily on first arc4random functions call, and if the
memory allocation fails getentropy or /dev/urandom is used as fallback.
The cache is also cleared on thread exit iff it was initialized (so if
arc4random is not called it is not touched).
Although it is lock-free, arc4random is still not async-signal-safe
(the per thread state is not updated atomically).
The ChaCha20 implementation is based on RFC8439 [1], omitting the final
XOR of the keystream with the plaintext because the plaintext is a
stream of zeros. This strategy is similar to what OpenBSD arc4random
does.
The arc4random_uniform is based on previous work by Florian Weimer,
where the algorithm is based on Jérémie Lumbroso paper Optimal Discrete
Uniform Generation from Coin Flips, and Applications (2013) [2], who
credits Donald E. Knuth and Andrew C. Yao, The complexity of nonuniform
random number generation (1976), for solving the general case.
The main advantage of this method is the that the unit of randomness is not
the uniform random variable (uint32_t), but a random bit. It optimizes the
internal buffer sampling by initially consuming a 32-bit random variable
and then sampling byte per byte. Depending of the upper bound requested,
it might lead to better CPU utilization.

If an executable has copy relocations for extern protected data, that
can only work if the library containing the definition is built with
assumptions (a) the compiler emits GOT-generating relocations (b) the
linker produces R_*_GLOB_DAT instead of R_*_RELATIVE. Otherwise the
library uses its own definition directly and the executable accesses a
stale copy. Note: the GOT relocations defeat the purpose of protected
visibility as an optimization, but allow rtld to make the executable and
library use the same copy when copy relocations are present, but it
turns out this never worked perfectly.
ELF_RTYPE_CLASS_EXTERN_PROTECTED_DATA has strange semantics when both
a.so and b.so define protected var and the executable copy relocates
var: b.so accesses its own copy even with GLOB_DAT. The behavior change
is from commit 62da1e3b00 (x86) and then
copied to nios2 (ae5eae7cfc) and arc
(0e7d930c4c).
Without ELF_RTYPE_CLASS_EXTERN_PROTECTED_DATA, b.so accesses the copy
relocated data like a.so.
There is now a warning for copy relocation on protected symbol since
commit 7374c02b68. It's extremely
unlikely anyone relies on the ELF_RTYPE_CLASS_EXTERN_PROTECTED_DATA
behavior, so let's remove it: this removes a check in the symbol lookup
code.
Refine commit 349b0441da:
1. Copy relocations for extern protected data do not work properly,
regardless whether GNU_PROPERTY_1_NEEDED_INDIRECT_EXTERN_ACCESS is used.
It makes sense to produce a warning unconditionally.
2. Non-zero value of an undefined function symbol may break pointer
equality, but may be benign in many cases (many programs don't take the
address in the shared object then compare it with the address in the
executable). Reword the diagnostic to be clearer.
3. Remove the unneeded condition !(undef_map->l_1_needed &
GNU_PROPERTY_1_NEEDED_INDIRECT_EXTERN_ACCESS). If the executable does
not not have GNU_PROPERTY_1_NEEDED_INDIRECT_EXTERN_ACCESS (can only
occur in error cases), the diagnostic should be emitted as well.
When the defining shared object has
GNU_PROPERTY_1_NEEDED_INDIRECT_EXTERN_ACCESS, report an error to apply
the intended enforcement.

literals to float, use float literals (only required if the conversion
is inexact).
The patch was tested on aarch64 where the following symbols had new
spurious conversion instructions that got fixed:
__clog10f
__gammaf_r_finite@GLIBC_2.17
__j0f_finite@GLIBC_2.17
__j1f_finite@GLIBC_2.17
__jnf_finite@GLIBC_2.17
__kernel_casinhf
__lgamma_negf
__log1pf
__y0f_finite@GLIBC_2.17
__y1f_finite@GLIBC_2.17

Trapping SIGSEGV within the process is error-prone, adds security
issues, and modern analysis design tends to happen out of the
process (either by attaching a debugger or by post-mortem analysis).
The libSegfault also has some design problems, it uses non
async-signal-safe function (backtrace) on signal handler.
There are multiple alternatives if users do want to use similar
functionality, such as sigsegv gnulib module or libsegfault.
Add <dl-debug.h> to setup debugging entry in PT_DYNAMIC segment to support
DT_DEBUG, DT_MIPS_RLD_MAP_REL and DT_MIPS_RLD_MAP.
Tested on x86-64, x32 and i686 as well as with build-many-glibcs.py.
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 7061 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,
support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and
sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't
know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not.

It can be used to speed up the libgcc unwinder, and the internal
_dl_find_dso_for_object function (which is used for caller
identification in dlopen and related functions, and in dladdr).
_dl_find_object is in the internal namespace due to bug 28503.
If libgcc switches to _dl_find_object, this namespace issue will
be fixed. It is located in libc for two reasons: it is necessary
to forward the call to the static libc after static dlopen, and
there is a link ordering issue with -static-libgcc and libgcc_eh.a
because libc.so is not a linker script that includes ld.so in the
glibc build tree (so that GCC's internal -lc after libgcc_eh.a does
not pick up ld.so).
It is necessary to do the i386 customization in the
sysdeps/x86/bits/dl_find_object.h header shared with x86-64 because
otherwise, multilib installations are broken.
The implementation uses software transactional memory, as suggested
by Torvald Riegel. Two copies of the supporting data structures are
used, also achieving full async-signal-safety.

And use machine-sp.h instead. The Linux implementation is based on
already provided CURRENT_STACK_FRAME (used on nptl code) and
STACK_GROWS_UPWARD is replaced with _STACK_GROWS_UP.
