When dynamically loading a library along with several dependencies, calls to
_dl_add_to_slotinfo and _dl_update_slotinfo can become intermixed. As a
consequence, _dl_update_slotinfo will update the generation counter of the dtv
although not all of the slots belonging to that generation have been added.
Subsequent calls to _dl_add_to_slotinfo will add more slots to the same
generation, for which no storage will be allocated, as the dtv generation
checks will claim no work is necessary. This will lead to uninitialized dtv
entries and will likely cause a SIGSEGV when thread local variables are
accessed.
This patch fixes mixed SSE/AVX audit and checks AVX only once in
_dl_runtime_profile. When an AVX or SSE register value in pltenter is
modified, we have to make sure that the SSE part value is the same in both
lr_xmm and lr_vector fields so that pltexit will get the correct value
from either lr_xmm or lr_vector fields. AVX-enabled pltenter should
update both lr_xmm and lr_vector fields to support stacked AVX/SSE
pltenter functions.
Some symbols have to be identified process-wide by their name. This is
particularly important for some C++ features (e.g., class local static data
and static variables in inline functions). This cannot completely be
implemented with ELF functionality so far. The STB_GNU_UNIQUE binding
helps by ensuring the dynamic linker will always use the same definition for
all symbols with the same name and this binding.
Add a text program, built to run on the host, to check all newly
built DSOs for executable stacks and fail if the stack information
is missing or indicates executable stacks.
refetch dtv, as it might have changed.
