2019-01-24strftime: Pass the additional flags from "%EY" to "%Ey" [BZ #24096]TAMUKI Shoichi
The full representation of the alternative calendar year (%EY) typically includes an internal use of "%Ey". As a GNU extension, apply any flags on "%EY" (e.g. "%_EY", "%-EY") to the internal "%Ey", allowing users of "%EY" to control how the year is padded.

(LOCALES): Add ja_JP.UTF-8, lo_LA.UTF-8, and th_TH.UTF-8. * time/strftime_l.c (__strftime_internal): Add argument yr_spec to override padding for "%Ey". If an optional flag ('_' or '-') is specified to "%EY", interpret the "%Ey" in the subformat as if decorated with that flag. * time/tst-strftime2.c: New file.
2019-01-24strftime: Set the default width of "%Ey" to 2 [BZ #23758]TAMUKI Shoichi
In Japanese locales, strftime's alternative year format (%Ey) produces a year numbered within a time period called an _era_. A new era typically begins when a new emperor is enthroned. The result of "%Ey" is therefore usually a one- or two-digit number. Many programs that display Japanese era dates assume that the era year is two digits wide. To improve how these programs display dates during the first nine years of a new era, change "%Ey" to pad one- digit numbers on the left with a zero. This change applies to all locales. It is expected to be harmless for other locales that use the alternative year format (e.g. lo_LA and th_TH, in which "%Ey" produces the year of the Buddhist calendar) as those calendars' year numbers are already more than two digits wide, and this is not expected to change. This change needs to be in place before 2019-05-01 CE, as a new era is scheduled to begin on that date.

2019-01-21CVE-2016-10739: getaddrinfo: Fully parse IPv4 address strings [BZ #20018]Florian Weimer
The IPv4 address parser in the getaddrinfo function is changed so that it does not ignore trailing whitespace and all characters after it. For backwards compatibility, the getaddrinfo function still recognizes legacy name syntax, such as 192.000.002.010 interpreted as 192.0.2.8 (octal). This commit does not change the behavior of inet_addr and inet_aton. gethostbyname already had additional sanity checks (but is switched over to the new __inet_aton_exact function for completeness as well). To avoid sending the problematic query names over DNS, commit 6ca53a2453598804a2559a548a08424fca96434a ("resolv: Do not send queries for non-host-names in nss_dns [BZ #24112]") is needed.
2019-01-21x86-64 memchr/wmemchr: Properly handle the length parameter [BZ# 24097]H.J. Lu
On x32, the size_t parameter may be passed in the lower 32 bits of a 64-bit register with the non-zero upper 32 bits. The string/memory functions written in assembly can only use the lower 32 bits of a 64-bit register as length or must clear the upper 32 bits before using the full 64-bit register for length. This pach fixes memchr/wmemchr for x32. Tested on x86-64 and x32. On x86-64, libc.so is the same with and withou the fix. [BZ# 24097] CVE-2019-6488 * sysdeps/x86_64/memchr.S: Use RDX_LP for length.

2019-01-03Use C99-compliant scanf under _GNU_SOURCE with modern compilers.Zack Weinberg
The only difference between noncompliant and C99-compliant scanf is that the former accepts the archaic GNU extension '%as' (also %aS and %a[...]) meaning to allocate space for the input string with malloc. This extension conflicts with C99's use of %a as a format _type_ meaning to read a floating-point number; POSIX.1-2008 standardized equivalent functionality using the modifier letter 'm' instead (%ms, %mS, %m[...]). The extension was already disabled in most conformance modes: specifically, any mode that doesn't involve _GNU_SOURCE and _does_ involve either strict conformance to C99 or loose conformance to both C99 and POSIX.1-2001 would get the C99-compliant scanf. With compilers new enough to use -std=gnu11 instead of -std=gnu89, or equivalent, that includes the default mode. With this patch, we now provide C99-compliant scanf in all configurations except when _GNU_SOURCE is defined *and* __STDC_VERSION__ or __cplusplus (whichever is relevant) indicates C89/C++98. This leaves the old scanf available under e.g. -std=c89 -D_GNU_SOURCE, but removes it from e.g. -std=gnu11 -D_GNU_SOURCE (it was already not present under -std=gnu11 without -D_GNU_SOURCE) and from -std=gnu89 without -D_GNU_SOURCE. There needs to be an internal override so we can compile the noncompliant scanf itself. This is the same problem we had when we removed 'gets' from _GNU_SOURCE and it's dealt with the same way: there's a new __GLIBC_USE symbol, DEPRECATED_SCANF, which defaults to off under the appropriate conditions for external code, but can be overridden by individual files within stdio. We also run into problems with PLT bypass for internal uses of sscanf, because libc_hidden_proto uses __REDIRECT and so does the logic in stdio.h for choosing which implementation of scanf to use; __REDIRECT isn't transitive, so include/stdio.h needs to bridge the gap with a macro. As far as I can tell, sscanf is the only function in this family that's internally called by unrelated code. Finally, there are several tests in stdio-common that use the extension. bug21.c is a regression test for a crash; it still exercises the relevant code when changed to use %ms instead of %as. scanf14.c through scanf17.c are more complicated since they are actually testing the subtleties of the extension - under what circumstances is 'a' treated as a modifier letter, etc. I changed all of them to use %ms instead of %as as well, but duplicated scanf14.c and scanf16.c as scanf14a.c and scanf16a.c. These still use %as and are compiled with -std=gnu89 to access the old extension. A bunch of diagnostic overrides and manual workarounds for the old stdio.h behavior become unnecessary. Yay! * include/features.h (__GLIBC_USE_DEPRECATED_SCANF): New __GLIBC_USE parameter.

2018-12-28NEWS: Fix a minor typo ("incosistent" -> "inconsistent").Rafal Luzynski
2018-12-21Require GCC 5 or later to build glibc (bug 23993).Joseph Myers
We know that building glibc with GCC 4.9 is broken on various platforms (bug 23993). As it's more than a year since we last increased the minimum GCC version to build glibc, this patch changes the requirement to be GCC 5 or later (indeed, based on 4.9 having been required for building 2.26, it would be consistent in terms of timing to require GCC 6 or later from the 2.30 release onwards). It deliberately just updates the configure test and corresponding documentation, leaving removal of no-longer-needed __GNUC_PREREQ tests for a separate patch. In the NEWS entry, the requirement for a newer GCC version for powerpc64le is reiterated (as in the entry for the 4.9 requirement in 2.26) to avoid suggesting the version requirement there has gone down. (If that version goes up further as part of support for binary128 long double, of course the wording would change at that time.) Tested for x86_64. [BZ #23993] * configure.ac (libc_cv_compiler_ok): Require GCC 5 or later. * configure: Regenerated. * manual/install.texi (Tools for Compilation): Update minimum GCC version. * INSTALL: Regenerated.

2018-11-30posix: Use posix_spawn on popenAdhemerval Zanella
This patch uses posix_spawn on popen instead of fork and execl. On Linux this has the advantage of much lower memory consumption (usually 32 Kb minimum for the mmap stack area). Two issues are also fixed with this change: * BZ#17490: although POSIX pthread_atfork description only list 'fork' as the function that should execute the atfork handlers, popen description states that: '[...] shall be *as if* a child process were created within the popen() call using the fork() function [...]' Other libc/system seems to follow the idea atfork handlers should not be executed for popen: libc/system | run atfork handles | notes ------------|----------------------|--------------------------------------- Freebsd | no | uses vfork Solaris 11 | no | MacOSX 11 | no | implemented through posix_spawn syscall ------------|----------------------|---------------------------------------- Similar to posix_spawn and system, popen idea is to spawn a different binary so all the POSIX rationale to run the atfork handlers to avoid internal process inconsistency is not really required and in some cases might be unsafe. * BZ#22834: the described scenario, where the forked process might access invalid memory due an inconsistent state in multithreaded environment, should not happen because posix_spawn does not access the affected data structure (proc_file_chain). Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.

2018-10-29Patch to require Python 3.4 or later to build glibc.Joseph Myers
This patch makes Python 3.4 or later a required tool for building glibc, so allowing changes of awk, perl etc. code used in the build and test to Python code without any such changes needing makefile conditionals or to handle older Python versions. This patch makes the configure test for Python check the version and give an error if Python is missing or too old, and removes makefile conditionals that are no longer needed. It does not itself convert any code from another language to Python, and does not remove any compatibility with older Python versions from existing scripts.

2018-10-24Use gen-libm-test.py to generate ulps table for manual.Joseph Myers
This patch extends gen-libm-test.py to generate the ulps table for the manual, so meaning there is only a single ulps file parser needed and another Perl script is eliminated. As with the introduction of gen-libm-test.py, this is designed to generate exactly the same libm-err.texi as libm-err-tab.pl did. (gen-libm-test.py is still shorter in lines than the old gen-libm-test.pl even after this patch.) Note that this introduces a Python dependency for building the manual, which is thus noted in install.texi and NEWS.

2018-09-21powerpc: Only enable TLE with PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_NOSCAdhemerval Zanella
Linux from 3.9 through 4.2 does not abort HTM transaction on syscalls, instead it suspend and resume it when leaving the kernel. The side-effects of the syscall will always remain visible, even if the transaction is aborted. This is an issue when transaction is used along with futex syscall, on pthread_cond_wait for instance, where the futex call might succeed but the transaction is rolled back leading the pthread_cond object in an inconsistent state. Glibc used to prevent it by always aborting a transaction before issuing a syscall. Linux 4.2 also decided to abort active transaction in syscalls which makes the glibc workaround superfluous. Worse, glibc transaction abortion leads to a performance issue on recent kernels where the HTM state is saved/restore lazily (v4.9). By aborting a transaction on every syscalls, regardless whether a transaction has being initiated before, GLIBS makes the kernel always save/restore HTM state (it can not even lazily disable it after a certain number of syscall iterations). Because of this shortcoming, Transactional Lock Elision is just enabled when it has been explicitly set (either by tunables of by a configure switch) and if kernel aborts HTM transactions on syscalls (PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_NOSC). It is reported that using simple benchmark [1], the context-switch is about 5% faster by not issuing a tabort in every syscall in newer kernels. Checked on powerpc64le-linux-gnu with 4.4.0 kernel (Ubuntu 16.04). * NEWS: Add note about new TLE support on powerpc64le. * sysdeps/powerpc/nptl/tcb-offsets.sym (TM_CAPABLE): Remove. * sysdeps/powerpc/nptl/tls.h (tcbhead_t): Rename tm_capable to __ununsed1.

2018-09-19Add new pow implementationSzabolcs Nagy
The algorithm is exp(y * log(x)), where log(x) is computed with about 1.3*2^-68 relative error (1.5*2^-68 without fma), returning the result in two doubles, and the exp part uses the same algorithm (and lookup tables) as exp, but takes the input as two doubles and a sign (to handle negative bases with odd integer exponent). The __exp1 internal symbol is no longer necessary. There is separate code path when fma is not available but the worst case error is about 0.54 ULP in both cases. The lookup table and consts for log are 4168 bytes. The .rodata+.text is decreased by 37908 bytes on aarch64. The non-nearest rounding error is less than 1 ULP.

2018-09-14Fix MIPS n32 pr_sigpend, pr_sighold, pr_flag type (bug 23656).Joseph Myers
As discussed at <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2018-09/msg00191.html> and followup discussions, the MIPS n32 definitions of pr_sigpend and pr_sighold in struct elf_prstatus, and pr_flag in struct elf_prpsinfo, are wrong to use unsigned long long int; actual n32 core dumps use a 32-bit type there, so userspace unsigned long int is correct for all MIPS ABIs. This patch removes the conditionals (also thereby aligning the structures with other architectures and so facilitating future unification of different versions of this header). Tested with build-many-glibcs.py for its MIPS configurations. [BZ #23656] * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/sys/procfs.h (struct elf_prstatus): Remove [_MIPS_SIM = _ABIN32] conditional case. (struct elf_prpsinfo): Likewise.
2018-09-14Fix sys/procfs.h pr_uid, pr_gid type (bug 23649).Joseph Myers
As noted in <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2018-09/msg00178.html>, glibc's sys/procfs.h headers for microblaze, mips (n64), nios2 and riscv have incorrect types for the pr_uid and pr_gid members of struct elf_prpsinfo (as does the generic Linux version, but nothing uses that). This patch fixes those headers to use unsigned int. The generic Linux version is also fixed, but I do *not* recommend making new architectures use it yet. Rather, I think it should be reworked to look more like a copy of the AArch64 version, but with a new <bits/procfs.h> header included to provide register set definitions; <bits/procfs.h> would then be architecture-specific while many architectures could use the generic <sys/procfs.h>. This fix is deliberately separate from any reworking to use a generic header more, since it's possible there could be uses for backporting this fix but not for backporting a subsequent cleanup. Tested with build-many-glibcs.py. This of course doesn't provide much validation of the structure layout; if the Linux kernel is fixed so that "#include <linux/elfcore.h>" actually compiles with the headers from "make headers_install" (and if the layout in both headers is meant to be the same, whatever ABI we are building for), I have a test that can be added to glibc to check the layout against that from the Linux kernel.

2018-09-12Add new log2 implementationSzabolcs Nagy
Similar algorithm is used as in log: log2(2^k x) = k + log2(c) + log2(x/c) where the last term is approximated by a polynomial of x/c - 1, the first order coefficient is about 1/ln2 in this case. There is separate code path when fma instruction is not available for computing x/c - 1 precisely, for which the table size is doubled. The worst case error is 0.547 ULP (0.55 without fma), the read only global data size is 1168 bytes (2192 without fma) on aarch64. The non-nearest rounding error is less than 1 ULP.

2018-09-12Add new log implementationSzabolcs Nagy
Optimized log using carefully generated lookup table with 1/c and log(c) values for small intervalls around 1. The log(c) is very near a double precision value, it has about 62 bits precision. The algorithm is log(2^k x) = k log(2) + log(c) + log(x/c), where the last term is approximated by a polynomial of x/c - 1. Near 1 a single polynomial of x - 1 is used. There is separate code path when fma instruction is not available for computing x/c - 1 precisely, in which case the table size is doubled. The code uses __builtin_fma under __FP_FAST_FMA to ensure it is inlined as an instruction. With the default configuration settings the worst case error is 0.519 ULP (and 0.520 without fma), the rodata size is 2192 bytes (4240 without fma). The non-nearest rounding error is less than 1 ULP.

2018-09-05Add new exp and exp2 implementationsSzabolcs Nagy
Optimized exp and exp2 implementations using a lookup table for fractional powers of 2. There are several variants, see e_exp_data.c, they can be selected by modifying math_config.h allowing different tradeoffs. The default selection should be acceptable as generic libm code. Worst case error is 0.509 ULP for exp and 0.507 ULP for exp2, on aarch64 the rodata size is 2160 bytes, shared between exp and exp2. On aarch64 .text + .rodata size decreased by 24912 bytes. The non-nearest rounding error is less than 1 ULP even on targets without efficient round implementation (although the error rate is higher in that case). Targets with single instruction, rounding mode independent, to nearest integer rounding and conversion can use them by setting TOINT_INTRINSICS and adding the necessary code to their math_private.h. The __exp1 code uses the same algorithm, so the error bound of pow increased a bit. New double precision error handling code was added following the style of the single precision error handling code. Improvements on Cortex-A72 compared to current glibc master: exp thruput: 1.61x in [-9.9 9.9] exp latency: 1.53x in [-9.9 9.9] exp thruput: 1.13x in [0.5 1] exp latency: 1.30x in [0.5 1] exp2 thruput: 2.03x in [-9.9 9.9] exp2 latency: 1.64x in [-9.9 9.9] For small (< 1) inputs the current exp code uses a separate algorithm so the speed up there is less.

The change has been consulted off-list with a native speaker. [BZ #23140] * localedata/locales/hy_AM (mon): Synchronize with CLDR (lowercase, genitive case).

2018-06-29New configure option --disable-crypt.Zack Weinberg
Some Linux distributions are experimenting with a new, separately maintained and hopefully more agile implementation of the crypt API. To facilitate this, add a configure option which disables glibc's embedded libcrypt. When this option is given, libcrypt.* and crypt.h will not be built nor installed.
