This interface allows to obtain the associated process ID from the
process file descriptor. It is done by parsing the procps fdinfo
information. Its prototype is:
pid_t pidfd_getpid (int fd)
It returns the associated pid or -1 in case of an error and sets the
errno accordingly. The possible errno values are those from open, read,
and close (used on procps parsing), along with:
- EBADF if the FD is negative, does not have a PID associated, or if
the fdinfo fields contain a value larger than pid_t.
- EREMOTE if the PID is in a separate namespace.
- ESRCH if the process is already terminated.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu on Linux 4.15 (no CLONE_PIDFD or waitid
support), Linux 5.4 (full support), and Linux 6.2.

Returning a pidfd allows a process to keep a race-free handle for a
child process, otherwise, the caller will need to either use pidfd_open
(which still might be subject to TOCTOU) or keep the old racy interface
base on pid_t.
To correct use pifd_spawn, the kernel must support not only returning
the pidfd with clone/clone3 but also waitid (P_PIDFD) (added on Linux
5.4). If kernel does not support the waitid, pidfd return ENOSYS.
It avoids the need to racy workarounds, such as reading the procfs
fdinfo to get the pid to use along with other wait interfaces.
These interfaces are similar to the posix_spawn and posix_spawnp, with
the only difference being it returns a process file descriptor (int)
instead of a process ID (pid_t). Their prototypes are:
int pidfd_spawn (int *restrict pidfd,
const char *restrict file,
const posix_spawn_file_actions_t *restrict facts,
const posix_spawnattr_t *restrict attrp,
char *const argv[restrict],
char *const envp[restrict])
int pidfd_spawnp (int *restrict pidfd,
const char *restrict path,
const posix_spawn_file_actions_t *restrict facts,
const posix_spawnattr_t *restrict attrp,
char *const argv[restrict_arr],
char *const envp[restrict_arr]);
A new symbol is used instead of a posix_spawn extension to avoid
possible issues with language bindings that might track the return
argument lifetime. Although on Linux pid_t and int are interchangeable,
POSIX only states that pid_t should be a signed integer.
Both symbols reuse the posix_spawn posix_spawn_file_actions_t and
posix_spawnattr_t, to void rehash posix_spawn API or add a new one. It
also means that both interfaces support the same attribute and file
actions, and a new flag or file action on posix_spawn is also added
automatically for pidfd_spawn.
Also, using posix_spawn plumbing allows the reusing of most of the
current testing with some changes:
- waitid is used instead of waitpid since it is a more generic
interface.
- tst-posix_spawn-setsid.c is adapted to take into consideration that
the caller can check for session id directly. The test now spawns
itself and writes the session id as a file instead.
- tst-spawn3.c need to know where pidfd_spawn is used so it keeps an
extra file description unused.

These functions allow to posix_spawn and posix_spawnp to use
CLONE_INTO_CGROUP with clone3, allowing the child process to
be created in a different cgroup version 2. These are GNU
extensions that are available only for Linux, and also only
for the architectures that implement clone3 wrapper
(HAVE_CLONE3_WRAPPER).
To create a process on a different cgroupv2, one can use the:
posix_spawnattr_t attr;
posix_spawnattr_init (&attr);
posix_spawnattr_setflags (&attr, POSIX_SPAWN_SETCGROUP);
posix_spawnattr_setcgroup_np (&attr, cgroup);
posix_spawn (...)
Similar to other posix_spawn flags, POSIX_SPAWN_SETCGROUP control
whether the cgroup file descriptor will be used or not with
clone3.
There is no fallback if either clone3 does not support the flag
or if the architecture does not provide the clone3 wrapper, in
this case posix_spawn returns EOPNOTSUPP.

In short: __tls_get_addr checks the global generation counter and if
the current dtv is older then _dl_update_slotinfo updates dtv up to the
generation of the accessed module. So if the global generation is newer
than generation of the module then __tls_get_addr keeps hitting the
slow dtv update path. The dtv update path includes a number of checks
to see if any update is needed and this already causes measurable tls
access slow down after dlopen.
It may be possible to detect up-to-date dtv faster. But if there are
many modules loaded (> TLS_SLOTINFO_SURPLUS) then this requires at
least walking the slotinfo list.
This patch tries to update the dtv to the global generation instead, so
after a dlopen the tls access slow path is only hit once. The modules
with larger generation than the accessed one were not necessarily
synchronized before, so additional synchronization is needed.
This patch uses acquire/release synchronization when accessing the
generation counter.
Note: in the x86_64 version of dl-tls.c the generation is only loaded
once, since relaxed mo is not faster than acquire mo load.

The old Intel software developer manual specified that the low byte of
EAX of CPUID leaf 2 returned 1 which indicated the number of rounds of
CPUDID leaf 2 was needed to retrieve the complete cache information. The
newer Intel manual has been changed to that it should always return 1
and be ignored. If the lower byte isn't 1, CPUID leaf 2 can't be used.
In this case, we ignore CPUID leaf 2 and use CPUID leaf 4 instead. If
CPUID leaf 4 doesn't contain the cache information, cache information
isn't available at all. This addresses BZ #30643.

Previously, if an entry was marked unusable for any reason, but had
not timed out yet, the assert would trigger.
One way to get into such state is if a data change is detected during
re-validation of an entry. This causes the entry to be marked as not
usable. If exits nscd soon after that, then the clock jumps
backwards, and nscd restarted, the cache re-validation run after
startup triggers the removed assert.
The change is more complicated than just the removal of the assert
because entries marked as not usable should be garbage-collected in
the second pass. To make this happen, it is necessary to update some
book-keeping data.
