2016-02-24Enable --localedir to set message catalog directory (Bug 14259)Carlos O'Donell
In 1999 the project split "localedir" into "localedir" (path to compiled locale archives) and "msgcatdir" (path to message catalogs). This predates the 2002 change in the GNU Coding Standard to document the use of "localedir" for the path to the message catalogs. It appears that newlib, gcc, and several other projects also used "msgcatdir" at one point or another in the past, and so it is in line with historical precedent that glibc would also use "msgcatdir." However, given that the GNU Coding Standard uses "localedir", we will switch to that for consistency as a GNU project. Previous uses of --localdir didn't work anyway (see bug 14259). I am committing this patch in the understanding that nobody would object to fixing #14259 as part of aligning our variable usage to the GNU Coding Standard. Given that previous "localedir" uses were converted to "complocaledir" by [1], we can now convert "msgcatdir" to "localedir" and complete the transition. With an addition to config.make.in we also fix bug 14259 and allow users to specify the locale dependent data directory with "--localedir" at configure time. There is still no way to control at configure time the location of the *compiled* locale directory. Tested on x86_64 with no regressions. Tested using "--localedir" to specify alternate locale dependent data directory and verified with "make install DESTDIR=/tmp/glibc". [1] 90fe682d3067163aa773feecf497ef599429457a

2016-02-24Remove linux/fanotify.h configure test.Joseph Myers
Now we require Linux 3.2 or later kernel headers everywhere, the configure test for <linux/fanotify.h> is obsolete; this patch removes it. Tested for x86_64. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/configure.ac (linux/fanotify.h): Do not test for header. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/configure: Regenerated. * config.h.in (HAVE_LINUX_FANOTIFY_H): Remove #undef. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tst-fanotify.c [!HAVE_LINUX_FANOTIFY_H]: Remove conditional code.

2016-02-24Require Linux 3.2 except on x86 / x86_64, 3.2 headers everywhere.Joseph Myers
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. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/configure.ac (LIBC_LINUX_VERSION): Define to 3.2.0. (arch_minimum_kernel): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/configure: Regenerated. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/configure.ac (arch_minimum_kernel): Define to 2.6.32. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/configure: Regenerated. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/64/configure.ac (arch_minimum_kernel): Define to 2.6.32. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/64/configure: Regenerated. * README: Document Linux 3.2 requirement. * manual/install.texi (Linux): Document Linux 3.2 headers requirement. * INSTALL: Regenerated.

2016-02-22intl: reintroduce unintentionally disabled optimizationDmitry V. Levin
HAVE_BUILTIN_EXPECT macro was removed by commit glibc-2.14-280-g3ce1f29, but then its use was unintentionally reintroduced during merge with GNU gettext 0.19.3 by commit glibc-2.20-324-g6d24885, effectively disabling all optimization based on __builtin_expect. As intl files are also part of GNU gettext, HAVE_BUILTIN_EXPECT macro cannot be removed, so define it unconditionally in config.h.in instead. [BZ #19512] * config.h.in (HAVE_BUILTIN_EXPECT): New macro.
2016-02-22Add missing inclusion of libc-internal.h.Stefan Liebler
The build of posix/tst-dir.c fails due to undefined DIAG_* macros. The usage of the macros were introduced in recent commit 7584a3f96de88d5eefe5d6c634515278cbfbf052 "Deprecate readdir_r, readdir64_r [BZ #19056]". This patch adds the missing header libc-internal.h.

2016-02-19[x86_64] Set DL_RUNTIME_UNALIGNED_VEC_SIZE to 8H.J. Lu
Due to GCC bug: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58066 __tls_get_addr may be called with 8-byte stack alignment. Although this bug has been fixed in GCC 4.9.4, 5.3 and 6, we can't assume that stack will be always aligned at 16 bytes. Since SSE optimized memory/string functions with aligned SSE register load and store are used in the dynamic linker, we must set DL_RUNTIME_UNALIGNED_VEC_SIZE to 8 so that _dl_runtime_resolve_sse will align the stack before calling _dl_fixup: Dump of assembler code for function _dl_runtime_resolve_sse: 0x00007ffff7deea90 <+0>: push %rbx 0x00007ffff7deea91 <+1>: mov %rsp,%rbx 0x00007ffff7deea94 <+4>: and $0xfffffffffffffff0,%rsp ^^^^^^^^^^^ Align stack to 16 bytes 0x00007ffff7deea98 <+8>: sub $0x100,%rsp 0x00007ffff7deea9f <+15>: mov %rax,0xc0(%rsp) 0x00007ffff7deeaa7 <+23>: mov %rcx,0xc8(%rsp) 0x00007ffff7deeaaf <+31>: mov %rdx,0xd0(%rsp) 0x00007ffff7deeab7 <+39>: mov %rsi,0xd8(%rsp) 0x00007ffff7deeabf <+47>: mov %rdi,0xe0(%rsp) 0x00007ffff7deeac7 <+55>: mov %r8,0xe8(%rsp) 0x00007ffff7deeacf <+63>: mov %r9,0xf0(%rsp) 0x00007ffff7deead7 <+71>: movaps %xmm0,(%rsp) 0x00007ffff7deeadb <+75>: movaps %xmm1,0x10(%rsp) 0x00007ffff7deeae0 <+80>: movaps %xmm2,0x20(%rsp) 0x00007ffff7deeae5 <+85>: movaps %xmm3,0x30(%rsp) 0x00007ffff7deeaea <+90>: movaps %xmm4,0x40(%rsp) 0x00007ffff7deeaef <+95>: movaps %xmm5,0x50(%rsp) 0x00007ffff7deeaf4 <+100>: movaps %xmm6,0x60(%rsp) 0x00007ffff7deeaf9 <+105>: movaps %xmm7,0x70(%rsp) [BZ #19679] * sysdeps/x86_64/dl-trampoline.S (DL_RUNIME_UNALIGNED_VEC_SIZE): Renamed to ...

The following new 386 and X86_64 were added to binutils. They are non-dynamic relocations, so don't need direct handling in glibc. But other programs, like elfutils, use the glibc elf.h definitions for the names and numbers when inspecting ET_REL files.

2016-02-19test-skeleton: increase default TIMEOUT to 20 secondsMike Frysinger
The vast majority of timeouts I've seen w/glibc tests are due to: - slow system (e.g. <1 GHz cpu) - loaded system (e.g. lots of parallelism) Even then, I've seen timeouts on system I don't generally consider slow, or even loaded, and considering TIMEOUT is set to <=10 in ~60 tests (and <=20 in ~75 tests), it seems I'm not alone. I've just gotten in the habit of doing `export TIMEOUTFACTOR=10` on all my setups. In the edge case where there is a bug in the test and the timeout is hit, I think we all agree that's either a problem with the test or a real bug in the library somewhere. In either case, the incident rate should be low, so catering to that seems like the wrong trade-off. Other developers too usually set large timeout factors. Increase the default to 20 seconds to match reality.

The ldbl-128ibm implementation of nextafterl / nexttowardl returns -0 in FE_DOWNWARD mode when taking the next value below the least positive subnormal, when it should return +0. This patch fixes it to check explicitly for this case. Tested for powerpc.

2016-02-19Fix ldbl-128ibm powl overflow handling (bug 19674).Joseph Myers
The ldbl-128ibm implementation of powl has some problems in the case of overflow or underflow, which are mainly visible in non-default rounding modes. * When overflow or underflow is detected early, the correct sign of an overflowing or underflowing result is not allowed for. This is mostly hidden in the default rounding mode by the errno-setting wrappers recomputing the result (except in non-default error-handling modes such as -lieee), but visible in other rounding modes where a result that is not zero or infinity causes the wrappers not to do the recomputation. * The final scaling is done before the sign is incorporated in the result, but should be done afterwards for correct overflowing and underflowing results in directed rounding modes. This patch fixes those problems. Tested for powerpc. [BZ #19674] * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/e_powl.c (__ieee754_powl): Include sign in overflowing and underflowing results when overflow or underflow is detected early. Include sign in result before rather than after scaling.
2016-02-19Fix ldbl-128ibm remainderl, remquol equality tests (bug 19603).Joseph Myers
The ldbl-128ibm implementations of remainderl and remquol have logic resulting in incorrect tests for equality of the absolute values of the arguments. Equality is tested based on the integer representations of the high and low parts, with the sign bit masked off the high part - but when this changes the sign of the high part, the sign of the low part needs to be changed as well, and failure to do this means arguments are wrongly treated as equal when they are not. This patch fixes the logic to adjust signs of low parts as needed. Tested for powerpc. [BZ #19603] * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/e_remainderl.c (__ieee754_remainderl): Adjust sign of integer version of low part when taking absolute value of high part. * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_remquol.c (__remquol): Likewise. * math/libm-test.inc (remainder_test_data): Add another test. (remquo_test_data): Likewise.
2016-02-18Fix ldbl-128ibm fmodl handling of equal arguments with low part zero (bug ↵Joseph Myers
19602). The ldbl-128ibm implementation of fmodl has logic to detect when the first argument has absolute value less than or equal to the second. This logic is only correct for nonzero low parts; if the high parts are equal and the low parts are zero, then the signs of the low parts (which have no semantic effect on the value of the long double number) can result in equal values being wrongly treated as unequal, and an incorrect result being returned from fmodl. This patch fixes this by checking for the case of zero low parts. Although this does show up in tests from libm-test.inc (both tests of fmodl, and, indirectly, of remainderl / dreml), the dependence on non-semantic zero low parts means that test shouldn't be expected to reproduce it reliably; thus, this patch adds a standalone test that sets up affected values using unions. Tested for powerpc. [BZ #19602] * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/e_fmodl.c (__ieee754_fmodl): Handle equal high parts and both low parts zero specially. * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/test-fmodl-ldbl-128ibm.c: New test. * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/Makefile [$(subdir) = math] (tests): Add test-fmodl-ldbl-128ibm.
2016-02-18Fix ldbl-128ibm fmodl handling of subnormal results (bug 19595).Joseph Myers
The ldbl-128ibm implementation of fmodl has completely bogus logic for subnormal results (in this context, that means results for which the result is in the subnormal range for double, not results with absolute value below LDBL_MIN), based on code used for ldbl-128 that is correct in that case but incorrect in the ldbl-128ibm use. This patch fixes it to convert the mantissa into the correct form expected by ldbl_insert_mantissa, removing the other cases of the code that were incorrect and in one case unreachable for ldbl-128ibm. A correct exponent value is then passed to ldbl_insert_mantissa to reflect the shifted result. Tested for powerpc. [BZ #19595] * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/e_fmodl.c (__ieee754_fmodl): Use common logic for all cases of shifting subnormal results. Do not insert sign bit in shifted mantissa. Always pass -1023 as biased exponent to ldbl_insert_mantissa in subnormal case.
2016-02-18Fix ldbl-128ibm roundl for non-default rounding modes (bug 19594).Joseph Myers
The ldbl-128ibm implementation of roundl is only correct in round-to-nearest mode (in other modes, there are incorrect results and overflow exceptions in some cases). This patch reimplements it along the lines used for floorl, ceill and truncl, using __round on the high part, and on the low part if the high part is an integer, and then adjusting in the cases where this is incorrect. Tested for powerpc. [BZ #19594] * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_roundl.c (__roundl): Use __round on high and low parts then adjust result and use ldbl_canonicalize_int if needed.
2016-02-18Fix ldbl-128ibm truncl for non-default rounding modes (bug 19593).Joseph Myers
The ldbl-128ibm implementation of truncl is only correct in round-to-nearest mode (in other modes, there are incorrect results and overflow exceptions in some cases). It is also unnecessarily complicated, rounding both high and low parts to the nearest integer and then adjusting for the semantics of trunc, when it seems more natural to take the truncation of the high part (__trunc optimized inline versions can be used), and the floor or ceiling of the low part (depending on the sign of the high part) if the high part is an integer, as was done for floorl and ceill. This patch makes it use that simpler approach. Tested for powerpc. [BZ #19593] * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_truncl.c (__truncl): Use __trunc on high part and __floor or __ceil on low part then use ldbl_canonicalize_int if needed.
2016-02-18Fix ldbl-128ibm ceill for non-default rounding modes (bug 19592).Joseph Myers
The ldbl-128ibm implementation of ceill is only correct in round-to-nearest mode (in other modes, there are incorrect results and overflow exceptions in some cases). It is also unnecessarily complicated, rounding both high and low parts to the nearest integer and then adjusting for the semantics of ceil, when it seems more natural to take the ceiling of the high part (__ceil optimized inline versions can be used), and that of the low part if the high part is an integer, as was done for floorl. This patch makes it use that simpler approach. Tested for powerpc.

2016-02-18Fix ldbl-128ibm floorl for non-default rounding modes (bug 17899).Joseph Myers
The ldbl-128ibm implementation of floorl is only correct in round-to-nearest mode (in other modes, there are incorrect results and overflow exceptions in some cases going beyond the incorrect signs of zero results noted in bug 17899). It is also unnecessarily complicated, rounding both high and low parts to the nearest integer and then adjusting for the semantics of floor, when it seems more natural to take the floor of the high part (__floor optimized inline versions can be used), and that of the low part if the high part is an integer. This patch makes it use that simpler approach, with a canonicalization that works in all rounding modes (given that the only way the result can be noncanonical is if taking the floor of a negative noninteger low part increased its exponent). Tested for powerpc, where over a thousand failures are removed from test-ldouble.out (floorl problems affect many powl tests). [BZ #17899] * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/math_ldbl.h (ldbl_canonicalize_int): New function. * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_floorl.c (__floorl): Use __floor on high and low parts then use ldbl_canonicalize_int if needed.

2016-02-18Add _STRING_INLINE_unaligned and string_private.hH.J. Lu
As discussed in https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-10/msg00403.html the setting of _STRING_ARCH_unaligned currently controls the external GLIBC ABI as well as selecting the use of unaligned accesses withing GLIBC. Since _STRING_ARCH_unaligned was recently changed for AArch64, this would potentially break the ABI in GLIBC 2.23, so split the uses and add _STRING_INLINE_unaligned to select the string ABI. This setting must be fixed for each target, while _STRING_ARCH_unaligned may be changed from release to release. _STRING_ARCH_unaligned is used unconditionally in glibc. But <bits/string.h>, which defines _STRING_ARCH_unaligned, isn't included with -Os. Since _STRING_ARCH_unaligned is internal to glibc and may change between glibc releases, it should be made private to glibc. _STRING_ARCH_unaligned should defined in the new string_private.h heade file which is included unconditionally from internal <string.h> for glibc build.

2016-02-16CVE-2015-7547: getaddrinfo() stack-based buffer overflow (Bug 18665).Carlos O'Donell
* 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.

2016-02-14Ensure isinff, isinfl, isnanf, and isnanl are defined (Bug 19439)Carlos O'Donell
In ICO C++11 mode ensure that isinff, isinfl, isnanf, and isnanl are defined. These functions were accidentally removed from the header as part of commit d9b965fa56350d6eea9f7f438a0714c7ffbb183f, but being GNU extensions, they should have been left in place.

2016-02-01Fix MIPS mmap negative offset handling for consistency (bug 19550).Joseph Myers
The handling of negative offsets in MIPS mmap is inconsistent with other architectures, as shown by failure of the test posix/tst-mmap-offset for o32 and n32. The MIPS mmap syscall uses a signed argument and does a signed arithmetic shift on it, whereas the glibc semantics expected by that test are for the offset to be considered as a large positive offset. This patch makes MIPS consistent with other architectures as far as possible by using the mmap2 syscall on o32 (#including the generic implementation), and making mmap not an alias for mmap64 for n32, with a custom implementation for n32 that zero-extends the offset argument to 64-bit before calling the mmap syscall. Tested for MIPS64 (o32, n32, n64).
