TLS_INIT_TP is processor-specific, so it is not a good place to
put thread library initialization code (it would have to be repeated
for all CPUs). Introduce __tls_init_tp as a separate function,
to be called immediately after TLS_INIT_TP. Move the existing
stack list setup code for NPTL to this function.

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).
Commit 9e78f6f6e7 ("Implement
_dl_catch_error, _dl_signal_error in libc.so [BZ #16628]") has the
side effect that distinct namespaces, as created by dlmopen, now have
separate implementations of the rtld exception mechanism. This means
that the call to _dl_catch_error from libdl in a secondary namespace
does not actually install an exception handler because the
thread-local variable catch_hook in the libc.so copy in the secondary
namespace is distinct from that of the base namepace. As a result, a
dlsym/dlopen/... failure in a secondary namespace terminates the process
with a dynamic linker error because it looks to the exception handler
mechanism as if no handler has been installed.
This commit restores GLRO (dl_catch_error) and uses it to set the
handler in the base namespace.

When parse_tunables tries to erase a tunable marked as SXID_ERASE for
setuid programs, it ends up setting the envvar string iterator
incorrectly, because of which it may parse the next tunable
incorrectly. Given that currently the implementation allows malformed
and unrecognized tunables pass through, it may even allow SXID_ERASE
tunables to go through.
This change revamps the SXID_ERASE implementation so that:
- Only valid tunables are written back to the tunestr string, because
of which children of SXID programs will only inherit a clean list of
identified tunables that are not SXID_ERASE.
- Unrecognized tunables get scrubbed off from the environment and
subsequently from the child environment.
- This has the side-effect that a tunable that is not identified by
the setxid binary, will not be passed on to a non-setxid child even
if the child could have identified that tunable. This may break
applications that expect this behaviour but expecting such tunables
to cross the SXID boundary is wrong.

It turns out the startup code in csu/elf-init.c has a perfect pair of
ROP gadgets (see Marco-Gisbert and Ripoll-Ripoll, "return-to-csu: A
New Method to Bypass 64-bit Linux ASLR"). These functions are not
needed in dynamically-linked binaries because DT_INIT/DT_INIT_ARRAY
are already processed by the dynamic linker. However, the dynamic
linker skipped the main program for some reason. For maximum
backwards compatibility, this is not changed, and instead, the main
map is consulted from __libc_start_main if the init function argument
is a NULL pointer.
For statically linked binaries, the old approach based on linker
symbols is still used because there is nothing else available.
A new symbol version __libc_start_main@@GLIBC_2.34 is introduced because
new binaries running on an old libc would not run their ELF
constructors, leading to difficult-to-debug issues.
The elision interfaces are closely aligned between the targets that
implement them, so declare them in the generic <lowlevellock.h>
file.
Empty .c stubs are provided, so that fewer makefile updates
under sysdeps are needed. Also simplify initialization via
__libc_early_init.
The symbols __lll_clocklock_elision, __lll_lock_elision,
__lll_trylock_elision, __lll_unlock_elision, __pthread_force_elision
move into libc. For the time being, non-hidden references are used
from libpthread to access them, but once that part of libpthread
is moved into libc, hidden symbols will be used again. (Hidden
references seem desirable to reduce the likelihood of transactions
aborts.)
The kernel does not put the vDSO at special addresses, so writev can

The glibc.malloc.mmap_max tunable as well as al of the INT_32 tunables
don't have use for negative values, so pin the hardcoded limits in the
non-negative range of INT. There's no real benefit in any of those
use cases for the extended range of unsigned, so I have avoided added
a new type to keep things simple.
The TUNABLE_SET interface took a primitive C type argument, which
resulted in inconsistent type conversions internally due to incorrect
dereferencing of types, especialy on 32-bit architectures. This
change simplifies the TUNABLE setting logic along with the interfaces.
Now all numeric tunable values are stored as signed numbers in
tunable_num_t, which is intmax_t. All calls to set tunables cast the
input value to its primitive type and then to tunable_num_t for
storage. This relies on gcc-specific (although I suspect other
compilers woul also do the same) unsigned to signed integer conversion
semantics, i.e. the bit pattern is conserved. The reverse conversion
is guaranteed by the standard.
Add _SC_MINSIGSTKSZ for the minimum signal stack size derived from
AT_MINSIGSTKSZ, which is the minimum number of bytes of free stack
space required in order to gurantee successful, non-nested handling
of a single signal whose handler is an empty function, and _SC_SIGSTKSZ
which is the suggested minimum number of bytes of stack space required
for a signal stack.
If AT_MINSIGSTKSZ isn't available, sysconf (_SC_MINSIGSTKSZ) returns
MINSIGSTKSZ. On Linux/x86 with XSAVE, the signal frame used by kernel
is composed of the following areas and laid out as:
------------------------------
| alignment padding |
------------------------------
| xsave buffer |
------------------------------
| fsave header (32-bit only) |
------------------------------
| siginfo + ucontext |
------------------------------
Compute AT_MINSIGSTKSZ value as size of xsave buffer + size of fsave
header (32-bit only) + size of siginfo and ucontext + alignment padding.
If _SC_SIGSTKSZ_SOURCE or _GNU_SOURCE are defined, MINSIGSTKSZ and SIGSTKSZ
are redefined as
/* Default stack size for a signal handler: sysconf (SC_SIGSTKSZ). */
# undef SIGSTKSZ
# define SIGSTKSZ sysconf (_SC_SIGSTKSZ)
/* Minimum stack size for a signal handler: SIGSTKSZ. */
# undef MINSIGSTKSZ
# define MINSIGSTKSZ SIGSTKSZ
Compilation will fail if the source assumes constant MINSIGSTKSZ or
SIGSTKSZ.
The reason for not simply increasing the kernel's MINSIGSTKSZ #define
(apart from the fact that it is rarely used, due to glibc's shadowing
definitions) was that userspace binaries will have baked in the old
value of the constant and may be making assumptions about it.
For example, the type (char [MINSIGSTKSZ]) changes if this #define
changes. This could be a problem if an newly built library tries to
memcpy() or dump such an object defined by and old binary.
Bounds-checking and the stack sizes passed to things like sigaltstack()
and makecontext() could similarly go wrong.
The existing code specifies -Wl,--defsym=malloc=0 and other malloc.os
definitions before libc_pic.a so that libc_pic.a(malloc.os) is not
fetched. This trick is used to avoid multiple definition errors which
would happen as a chain result:
dl-allobjs.os has an undefined __libc_scratch_buffer_set_array_size
__libc_scratch_buffer_set_array_size fetches libc_pic.a(scratch_buffer_set_array_size.os)
libc_pic.a(scratch_buffer_set_array_size.os) has an undefined free
free fetches libc_pic.a(malloc.os)
libc_pic.a(malloc.os) has an undefined __libc_message
__libc_message fetches libc_pic.a(libc_fatal.os)
libc_fatal.os will cause a multiple definition error (__GI___libc_fatal)
>>> defined at dl-fxstatat64.c
>>> /tmp/p/glibc/Release/elf/dl-allobjs.os:(__GI___libc_fatal)
>>> defined at libc_fatal.c
>>> libc_fatal.os:(.text+0x240) in archive /tmp/p/glibc/Release/libc_pic.a
LLD processes --defsym after all input files, so this trick does not
suppress multiple definition errors with LLD. Split the step into two
and use an object file to make the intention more obvious and make LLD
work.
This is conceptually more appropriate because --defsym defines a SHN_ABS
symbol while a normal definition is relative to the image base.
See https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2020-March/111910.html
for discussions about the --defsym semantics.

Extern symbol access in position independent code usually involves GOT
indirection which needs RELATIVE reloc in a static linked PIE. (On
some targets this is avoided e.g. because the linker can relax a GOT
access to a pc-relative access, but this is not generally true.) Code
that runs before static PIE self relocation must avoid relying on
dynamic relocations which can be ensured by using hidden visibility.
However we cannot just make all symbols hidden:
On i386, all calls to IFUNC functions must go through PLT and calls to
hidden functions CANNOT go through PLT in PIE since EBX used in PIE PLT
may not be set up for local calls to hidden IFUNC functions.
This patch aims to make symbol references hidden in code that is used
before and by _dl_relocate_static_pie when building a static PIE libc.
Note: for an object that is used in the startup code, its references
and definition may not have consistent visibility: it is only forced
hidden in the startup code.

With static pie linking pointers in the tunables list need

relocation can be done after tunables are initialized.
This is a simple fix that embeds the tunable strings into the
tunable list instead of using pointers. It is possible to have
a more compact representation of tunables with some additional
complexity in the generator and tunable parser logic. Such
optimization will be useful if the list of tunables grows.
There is still an issue that tunables_strdup allocates and the
failure handling code path is sufficiently complex that it can
easily have RELATIVE relocations. It is possible to avoid the
early allocation and only change environment variables in a
setuid exe after relocations are processed. But that is a
bigger change and early failure is fatal anyway so it is not
