This patch adds a configure check to test if gcc supports attribute ifunc.
The support can either be enabled in <gcc-src>/gcc/config.gcc for one
architecture in general by setting default_gnu_indirect_function variable to yes
or by configuring gcc with --enable-gnu-indirect-function.
The next patch rewrites libc_ifunc macro to use gcc attribute ifunc instead
of inline assembly to generate the IFUNC symbols due to false debuginfo.
If gcc does not support attribute ifunc, the old approach for generating
ifunc'ed symbols is used. Then the debug-information is false. Thus it is
recommended to use a gcc with indirect function support (See notes in INSTALL).
After this patch-series these inline assemblies for ifunc-handling are not
scattered in multiple files but are used only indirect via ifunc-macros
and can simply removed in libc-symbols.h in future.
If glibc is configured with --enable-multi-arch and gcc does not support
attribute ifunc, a configure warning is dumped!
ChangeLog:
* config.h.in (HAVE_GCC_IFUNC): New undef.
* configure.ac: Add check if gcc supports attribute ifunc feature.
* configure: Regenerated.
* manual/install.texi: Add recommendation for gcc with
indirect-function support.
* INSTALL: Regenerated.
TS 18661-1 adds an iseqsig type-generic comparison macro to <math.h>.
This macro is like the == operator except that unordered operands
result in the "invalid" exception and errno being set to EDOM.
This patch implements this macro for glibc. Given the need to set
errno, this is implemented with out-of-line functions __iseqsigf,
__iseqsig and __iseqsigl (of which the last only exists at all if long
double is ABI-distinct from double, so no function aliases or compat
support are needed). The present patch ignores excess precision
issues; I intend to deal with those in a followup patch. (Like
comparison operators, type-generic comparison macros should *not*
convert operands to their semantic types but should preserve excess
range and precision, meaning that for some argument types and values
of FLT_EVAL_METHOD, an underlying function should be called for a
wider type than that of the arguments.)
The underlying functions are implemented with the type-generic
template machinery. Comparing x <= y && x >= y is sufficient in ISO C
to achieve an equality comparison with "invalid" raised for unordered
operands (and the results of those two comparisons can also be used to
tell whether errno needs to be set). However, some architectures have
GCC bugs meaning that unordered comparison instructions are used
instead of ordered ones. Thus, a mechanism is provided for
architectures to use an explicit call to feraiseexcept to raise
exceptions if required. If your architecture has such a bug you
should add a fix-fp-int-compare-invalid.h header for it, with a
comment pointing to the relevant GCC bug report; if such a GCC bug is
fixed, that header's contents should have a __GNUC_PREREQ conditional
added so that the workaround can eventually be removed for that
architecture.
Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64, arm and powerpc.

TS 18661-1 adds an iscanonical classification macro to <math.h>.
The motivation for this is decimal floating-point, where some values
have both canonical and noncanonical encodings. For IEEE binary
interchange formats, all encodings are canonical. For x86/m68k
ldbl-96, and for ldbl-128ibm, there are encodings that do not
represent any valid value of the type; although formally iscanonical
does not need to handle trap representations (and so could just always
return 1), it seems useful, and in line with the description in the TS
of "representations that are extraneous to the floating-point model"
as being non-canonical (as well as "redundant representations of some
or all of its values"), for it to detect those representations and
return 0 for them.
This patch adds iscanonical to glibc. It goes in a header
<bits/iscanonical.h>, included under appropriate conditions in
<math.h>. The default header version just evaluates the argument
(converted to its semantic type, though current GCC will probably
discard that conversion and any exceptions resulting from it) and
returns 1. ldbl-96 and ldbl-128ibm then have versions of the header
that call a function __iscanonicall for long double (the sizeof-based
tests will of course need updating for float128 support, like other
such type-generic macro implementations). The ldbl-96 version of
__iscanonicall has appropriate conditionals to reflect the differences
in the m68k version of that format (where the high mantissa bit may be
either 0 or 1 when the exponent is 0 or 0x7fff). Corresponding tests
for those formats are added as well. Other architectures do not have
any new functions added because just returning 1 is correct for all
their floating-point formats.
Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 (to test the default macro version) and
powerpc.

TS 18661-1 adds an iszero classification macro to <math.h>. This
patch implements it for glibc. There are no new underlying functions
in libm because the implementation uses fpclassify when sNaN support
is required and a direct comparison otherwise; any optimizations for
this macro should be done through adding __builtin_iszero in GCC and
using it in the header for suitable GCC versions, not through adding
other optimized inline or out-of-line versions to glibc.

TS 18661-1 adds an issubnormal classification macro to <math.h>. This

GCC and using it in the header for suitable GCC versions, not through
adding other optimized inline or out-of-line versions to glibc.
The intended structure of the NEWS entry for <math.h> features from TS
18661-1 is like:
* New <math.h> features are added from TS 18661-1:2014:
- Nearest integer functions: roundeven, roundevenf, roundevenl.
- Comparison macros: iseqsig.
- Classification macros: iscanonical, issubnormal, iszero.
(that is, following the grouping of interfaces in TS 18661-1:2014,
with any group where any interfaces are new in glibc 2.25 being listed
like that).

TS 18661-1 defines macros for the width of integer types, intended for
use with the fromfp functions to convert from floating-point types to
integer types of any width, in any rounding mode and with control over
whether "inexact" is raised. Such macros are, of course, more
generally useful than just with those functions.
Those macros are added to <limits.h> and <stdint.h>. Having
previously added the <limits.h> macros, this patch adds the <stdint.h>
ones. I've also added these macros to GCC's headers for GCC 7, but
for glibc systems, the definitions in GCC's <stdint.h> will only be
used with -ffreestanding.
Tested for x86_64 and x86.

TS 18661-1 defines a type femode_t to represent the set of dynamic
floating-point control modes (such as the rounding mode and trap
enablement modes), and functions fegetmode and fesetmode to manipulate
those modes (without affecting other state such as the raised
exception flags) and a corresponding macro FE_DFL_MODE.
This patch series implements those interfaces for glibc. This first
patch adds the architecture-independent pieces, the x86 and x86_64
implementations, and the <bits/fenv.h> and ABI baseline updates for
all architectures so glibc keeps building and passing the ABI tests on
all architectures. Subsequent patches add the fegetmode and fesetmode
implementations for other architectures.
femode_t is generally an integer type - the same type as fenv_t, or as
the single element of fenv_t where fenv_t is a structure containing a
single integer (or the single relevant element, where it has elements
for both status and control registers) - except where architecture
properties or consistency with the fenv_t implementation indicate
otherwise. FE_DFL_MODE follows FE_DFL_ENV in whether it's a magic
pointer value (-1 cast to const femode_t *), a value that can be
distinguished from valid pointers by its high bits but otherwise
contains a representation of the desired register contents, or a
pointer to a constant variable (the powerpc case; __fe_dfl_mode is
added as an exported constant object, an alias to __fe_dfl_env).
Note that where architectures (that share a register between control
and status bits) gain definitions of new floating-point control or
status bits in future, the implementations of fesetmode for those
architectures may need updating (depending on whether the new bits are
control or status bits and what the implementation does with
previously unknown bits), just like existing implementations of
<fenv.h> functions that take care not to touch reserved bits may need
updating when the set of reserved bits changes. (As any new bits are
outside the scope of ISO C, that's just a quality-of-implementation
issue for supporting them, not a conformance issue.)
As with fenv_t, femode_t should properly include any software DFP
rounding mode (and for both fenv_t and femode_t I'd consider that
fragment of DFP support appropriate for inclusion in glibc even in the
absence of the rest of libdfp; hardware DFP rounding modes should
already be included if the definitions of which bits are status /
control bits are correct).
Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 (hard float, and soft float to test the
fallback version), arm (hard float) and powerpc (hard float, soft
float and e500). Other architecture versions are untested.

TS 18661-1 defines an fetestexceptflag function to test the exception
state saved in an fexcept_t object by fegetexceptflag.
This patch implements this function for glibc. Almost all
architectures save exception state in such a way that it can be
directly ANDed with exception flag bits, so rather than having lots of
fetestexceptflag implementations that all do the same thing, the math/
implementation is made to use this generic logic (which is also OK in
the fallback case where FE_ALL_EXCEPT is zero). The only architecture
that seems to need anything different is s390.
(fegetexceptflag and fesetexceptflag use abbreviated filenames
fgetexcptflg.c and fsetexcptflg.c. Because we are no longer concerned
by 14-character filename limits, fetestexceptflag uses the obvious
filename fetestexceptflag.c.)
The NEWS entry is intended to be expanded along the lines given in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-08/msg00356.html> when
fegetmode and fesetmode are added.
Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 and powerpc.

TS 18661-1 defines an fesetexcept function for setting floating-point
exception flags without the side-effect of causing enabled traps to be
taken.
This patch series implements this function for glibc. The present
patch adds the fallback stub implementation, x86 and x86_64
implementations, documentation, tests and ABI baseline updates. The
remaining patches, some of them untested, add implementations for
other architectures. The implementations generally follow those of
the fesetexceptflag function.
As for fesetexceptflag, the approach taken for architectures where
setting flags causes enabled traps to be taken is to set the flags
(and potentially cause traps) rather than refusing to set the flags
and returning an error. Since ISO C and TS 18661 provide no way to
enable traps, this is formally in accordance with the standards.
The NEWS entry should be considered a placeholder, since this patch
series is intended to be followed by further such series adding other
TS 18661-1 features, so that the NEWS entry would end up looking more
like
* New <fenv.h> features from TS 18661-1:2014 are added to libm: the
fesetexcept, fetestexceptflag, fegetmode and fesetmode functions,
the femode_t type and the FE_DFL_MODE macro.
with hopefully more such entries for other features, rather than
having an entry for a single function in the end.
I believe we have consensus for adding TS 18661-1 interfaces as per
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-06/msg00421.html>.
Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 (hard float, and soft float to test the

This patch implements support for the
__STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_FUNCS_EXT__ feature test macro, following the
__GLIBC_USE approach used for other ISO C feature test macros.

for a long time).
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed stripped
shared libraries are unchanged by the patch).

The macros defined by <sys/sysmacros.h> are not part of POSIX nor XSI, and
their names frequently collide with user code; see for instance glibc bug
19239 and Red Hat bug 130601. <stdlib.h> includes <sys/types.h> under
_GNU_SOURCE, and C++ code presently cannot avoid being compiled under
_GNU_SOURCE, exacerbating the problem.

previously-activated deprecation warnings for these macros and prevent
subsequent inclusions of this header from having any effect.
* posix/sys/types.h: Define __SYSMACROS_DEPRECATED_INCLUSION before

This patch implements support for the __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_BFP_EXT__
feature test macro from ISO/IEC 18661-1:2014, following the
__GLIBC_USE approach now used for __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT2__. For this
macro, the relevant consideration is whether it is defined or
undefined when an affected header is included (not what its value is
if defined, and not whether it's defined or undefined when any other
unaffected system header is included).
Currently this macro only affects the issignaling macro and the nextup
and nextdown functions (so they can be enabled by defining this macro,
not just by defining _GNU_SOURCE as previously). Any further features
from this TS added in future would also be conditioned on this macro.

shared libraries are unchanged by the patch).

This patch implements support for the __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT2__ feature
test macro from ISO/IEC TR 24731-2:2010, thereby implementing one
possible approach for supporting ISO C feature test macros.
Recall that, as described in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-05/msg00486.html>, these
macros work based on the definition when affected headers are
included, so cannot be handled once when the first system header is
included because that might not be one of the headers the particular
macro in question affects.
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-05/msg00680.html> expresses
views on possible approaches for implementation and
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-06/msg00039.html> follows
up on that.
This patch arranges things so that the relevant condition is
__GLIBC_USE (LIB_EXT2), following one of the suggestions given.
Headers using these macros include <bits/libc-header-start.h>, which
in turn includes <features.h>. Headers must define
__GLIBC_INTERNAL_STARTING_HEADER_IMPLEMENTATION before including
<bits/libc-header-start.h>, to discourage inclusion outside glibc as
requested. __USE_GNU conditions on affected functions are changed to
__GLIBC_USE (LIB_EXT2), while it's added as an additional alternative
on the conditions for functions already enabled for some POSIX
versions.
It would be possible to convert existing __USE_* conditionals to
__GLIBC_USE (with the relevant __GLIBC_USE_* being defined in
<features.h> where __USE_* are presently defined), and so make them
typo-proof (given -Wundef -Werror in glibc builds) because __GLIBC_USE
is used with #if not #ifdef / #if defined.
No attempt is made to enforce the rule about diagnosing different
definitions of __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT2__ when affected headers are
included; such a diagnostic is incompatible with multiple-include
guards on the affected headers, unless compiler extensions are added
to support it.
As previously noted, glibc does not implement all features from TR
24731-2:2010: the functions aswprintf vaswprintf getwdelim getwline
are not in glibc, although they would be appropriate to add if someone
wished to do so. But I think it makes sense to support the feature
test macro if *any* of the controlled features are present in glibc.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed stripped
shared libraries are unchanged by the patch).
* bits/libc-header-start.h: New file.
* Makefile (headers): Add bits/libc-header-start.h.

This reverts commit 62ce266b0b.
The change is not mature enough because it needs the following fixes:
1. Redirect test output to a file like other tests
2. Eliminate the need to use a .gdbinit because distributions will
break without it. I should have caught that but I was in too much
of a hurry to get the patch in :/
3. Feature checking during configure to determine things like minimum
required gdb version, python-pexpect version, etc. to make sure
that tests work correctly.
This patch adds pretty printers for the following NPTL types:
- pthread_mutex_t
- pthread_mutexattr_t
- pthread_cond_t
- pthread_condattr_t
- pthread_rwlock_t
- pthread_rwlockattr_t
To load the pretty printers into your gdb session, do the following:
python
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, '/path/to/glibc/build/nptl/pretty-printers')
end
source /path/to/glibc/source/pretty-printers/nptl-printers.py
You can check which printers are registered and enabled by issuing the
'info pretty-printer' gdb command. Printers should trigger automatically when
trying to print a variable of one of the types mentioned above.
The printers are architecture-independent, and were manually tested on both
the gdb CLI and Eclipse CDT.
In order to work, the printers need to know the values of various flags that
are scattered throughout pthread.h and pthreadP.h as enums and #defines. Since
replicating these constants in the printers file itself would create a
maintenance burden, I wrote a script called gen-py-const.awk that Makerules uses
to extract the constants. This script is pretty much the same as gen-as-const.awk,
except it doesn't cast the constant values to 'long' and is thorougly documented.
The constants need only to be enumerated in a .pysym file, which is then referenced
by a Make variable called gen-py-const-headers.
As for the install directory, I discussed this with Mike Frysinger and Siddhesh
Poyarekar, and we agreed that it can be handled in a separate patch, and it shouldn't
block merging of this one.
In addition, I've written a series of test cases for the pretty printers.
Each lock type (mutex, condvar and rwlock) has two test programs, one for itself
and other for its related 'attributes' object. Each test program in turn has a
PExpect-based Python script that drives gdb and compares its output to the
expected printer's. The tests run on the glibc host, which is assumed to have
both gdb and PExpect; if either is absent the tests will fail with code 77
(UNSUPPORTED). For cross-testing you should use cross-test-ssh.sh as test-wrapper.
I've tested the printers on both a native build and a cross build using a Beaglebone
Black, with the build system's filesystem shared with the board through NFS.
Finally, I've written a README that explains all this and more.
Hopefully this should be good to go in now. Thanks.

TS 18661 adds nextup and nextdown functions alongside nextafter to provide
support for float128 equivalent to it. This patch adds nextupl, nextup,
nextupf, nextdownl, nextdown and nextdownf to libm before float128 support.
The nextup functions return the next representable value in the direction of
positive infinity and the nextdown functions return the next representable
value in the direction of negative infinity. These are currently enabled
as GNU extensions.
__malloc_initialize_hook is interposed by application code, so
the usual approach to define a compatibility symbol does not work.
This commit adds a new mechanism based on #pragma GCC poison in
<stdc-predef.h>.
The call is technically in a loop, and under certain circumstances
(which are quite difficult to reproduce in a test case), alloca
can be invoked repeatedly during a single call to clntudp_call.
As a result, the available stack space can be exhausted (even
though individual alloca sizes are bounded implicitly by what
can fit into a UDP packet, as a side effect of the earlier
successful send operation).
Instead, we store the data we need from the return value of
readdir in an object of the new type struct readdir_result.
This type is independent of the layout of struct dirent.
https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Proposals/GroupMerging
== Justification ==
It is common today for users to rely on centrally-managed user stores for
handling their user accounts. However, much software existing today does
not have an innate understanding of such accounts. Instead, they commonly
rely on membership in known groups for managing access-control (for
example the "wheel" group on Fedora and RHEL systems or the "adm" group
on Debian-derived systems). In the present incarnation of nsswitch, the
only way to have such groups managed by a remote user store such as
FreeIPA or Active Directory would be to manually remove the groups from
/etc/group on the clients so that nsswitch would then move past nss_files
and into the SSSD, nss-ldap or other remote user database.
== Solution ==
With this patch, a new action is introduced for nsswitch:
NSS_ACTION_MERGE. To take advantage of it, one will add [SUCCESS=merge]
between two database entries in the nsswitch.conf file. When a group is
located in the first of the two group entries, processing will continue
on to the next one. If the group is also found in the next entry (and the
group name and GID are an exact match), the member list of the second
entry will be added to the group object to be returned.
== Implementation ==
After each DL_LOOKUP_FN() returns, the next action is checked. If the
function returned NSS_STATUS_SUCCESS and the next action is
NSS_ACTION_MERGE, a copy of the result buffer is saved for the next pass
through the loop. If on this next pass through the loop the database
returns another instance of a group matching both the group name and GID,
the member list is added to the previous list and it is returned as a
single object. If the following database does not contain the same group,
then the original is copied back into the destination buffer.
This patch implements merge functionality only for the group database.
For other databases, there is a default implementation that will return
the EINVAL errno if a merge is requested. The merge functionality can be
implemented for other databases at a later time if such is needed. Each
database must provide a unique implementation of the deep-copy and merge
functions.
If [SUCCESS=merge] is present in nsswitch.conf for a glibc version that
does not support it, glibc will process results up until that operation,
at which time it will return results if it has found them or else will
simply return an error. In practical terms, this ends up behaving like
the remainder of the nsswitch.conf line does not exist.
== Iterators ==
This feature does not modify the iterator functionality from its current
behavior. If getgrnam() or getgrgid() is called, glibc will iterate
through all entries in the `group` line in nsswitch.conf and display the
list of members without attempting to merge them. This is consistent with
the behavior of nss_files where if two separate lines are specified for
the same group in /etc/groups, getgrnam()/getgrgid() will display both.
Clients are already expected to handle this gracefully.
== No Premature Optimizations ==
The following is a list of places that might be eligible for
optimization, but were not overengineered for this initial contribution:
* Any situation where a merge may occur will result in one malloc() of
the same size as the input buffer.
* Any situation where a merge does occur will result in a second
malloc() to hold the list of pointers to member name strings.
* The list of members is simply concatenated together and is not tested
for uniqueness (which is identical to the behavior for nss_files,
which will simply return identical values if they both exist on the
line in the file. This could potentially be optimized to reduce space
usage in the buffer, but it is both complex and computationally
expensive to do so.
== Testing ==
I performed testing by running the getent utility against my newly-built
glibc and configuring /etc/nsswitch.conf with the following entry:
group: group: files [SUCCESS=merge] sss
In /etc/group I included the line:
wheel❌10:sgallagh
I then configured my local SSSD using the id_provider=local to respond
with:
wheel:*:10:localuser,localuser2
I then ran `getent group wheel` against the newly-built glibc in
multiple situations and received the expected output as described
above:
* When SSSD was running.
* When SSSD was configured in nsswitch.conf but the daemon was not
running.
* When SSSD was configured in nsswitch.conf but nss_sss.so.2 was not
installed on the system.
* When the order of 'sss' and 'files' was reversed.
* All of the above with the [SUCCESS=merge] removed (to ensure no
regressions).
* All of the above with `getent group 10`.
* All of the above with `getent group` with and without
`enumerate=true` set in SSSD.
* All of the above with and without nscd enabled on the system.
When converting a struct hostent response to struct gaih_addrtuple, the
gethosts macro (which is called from gaih_inet) used alloca, without
malloc fallback for large responses. This commit changes this code to
use calloc unconditionally.
This commit also consolidated a second hostent-to-gaih_addrtuple
conversion loop (in gaih_inet) to use the new conversion function.
The overloading approach in the W* macros was incompatible with
integer expressions of a type different from int. Applications
using union wait and these macros will have to migrate to the
POSIX-specified int status type.
In <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-01/msg00885.html> I
proposed a minimum Linux kernel version of 3.2 for glibc 2.24, since
Linux 2.6.32 has reached EOL.
In the discussion in February, some concerns were expressed about
compatibility with OpenVZ containers. It's not clear that these are
real issues, given OpenVZ backporting kernel features and faking the
kernel version for guest software, as discussed in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-02/msg00278.html>. It's
also not clear that supporting running GNU/Linux distributions from
late 2016 (at the earliest) on a kernel series from 2009 is a sensible
expectation. However, as an interim step, this patch increases the
requirement everywhere except x86 / x86_64 (since the controversy was
only about those architectures); the special caveats and settings can
easily be removed later when we're ready to increase the requirements
on x86 / x86_64 (and if someone would like to raise the issue on LWN
as suggested in the previous discussion, that would be welcome). 3.2
kernel headers are required everywhere by this patch.
(x32 already requires 3.4 or later, so is unaffected by this patch.)
As usual for such a change, this patch only changes the configure
scripts and associated documentation. The intent is to follow up with
removal of dead __LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION conditionals. Each __ASSUME_*
or other macro that becomes dead can then be removed independently.
Tested for x86_64 and x86.

From the bug:
Netherlands Antilles was dissolved, and "AN" is not a part of ISO 3166
anymore. According to setlocale(3), "territory is an ISO 3166 country
code". We now have pap_AW and pap_CW.

* A stack-based buffer overflow was found in libresolv when invoked from
libnss_dns, allowing specially crafted DNS responses to seize control
of execution flow in the DNS client. The buffer overflow occurs in
the functions send_dg (send datagram) and send_vc (send TCP) for the
NSS module libnss_dns.so.2 when calling getaddrinfo with AF_UNSPEC
family. The use of AF_UNSPEC triggers the low-level resolver code to
send out two parallel queries for A and AAAA. A mismanagement of the
buffers used for those queries could result in the response of a query
writing beyond the alloca allocated buffer created by
_nss_dns_gethostbyname4_r. Buffer management is simplified to remove
the overflow. Thanks to the Google Security Team and Red Hat for
reporting the security impact of this issue, and Robert Holiday of
Ciena for reporting the related bug 18665. (CVE-2015-7547)

Various Linux kernel syscalls have become obsolete over time.
Specifically, the following are obsolete in all kernel versions
supported by glibc, are not present for architectures more recently
added to the kernel, and as such, the wrapper functions for them
should be compat symbols, not in static libc and not available for new
links with shared libc.
* bdflush: in Linux 2.6, does nothing if present.
* create_module get_kernel_syms query_module: Linux 2.4 module
interface, syscalls not present in Linux 2.6.
* uselib: part of the mechanism for loading a.out shared libraries,
irrelevant with ELF.
This patch adds support for syscalls.list to list syscall aliases of
the form NAME@VERSION:OBSOLETED, with SHLIB_COMPAT conditionals being
generated for such aliases. Those five syscalls are then made into
compat symbols (obsoleted in glibc 2.23, so future ports won't have
these symbols at all), with the header <sys/kdaemon.h> declaring
bdflush being removed. When we move to 3.2 as minimum kernel version,
the same can be done for nfsservctl (removed in Linux 3.1) as well.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, as well as checking that the
symbols in question indeed become compat symbols, that they are indeed
omitted from static libc, and that the generated SHLIB_COMPAT
conditionals look right).
