The TUNABLE_SET_VALUE and family of macros (and my later attempt to
add a TUNABLE_GET) never quite went together very well because the
overall interface was not clearly defined. This patch is an attempt
to do just that.
This patch consolidates the API to two simple sets of macros,
TUNABLE_GET* and TUNABLE_SET*. If TUNABLE_NAMESPACE is defined,
TUNABLE_GET takes just the tunable name, type and a (optionally NULL)
callback function to get the value of the tunable. The callback
function, if non-NULL, is called if the tunable was externally set
(i.e. via GLIBC_TUNABLES or any future mechanism). For example:
val = TUNABLE_GET (check, int32_t, check_callback)
returns the value of the glibc.malloc.check tunable (assuming
TUNABLE_NAMESPACE is set to malloc) as an int32_t into VAL after
calling check_callback.
Likewise, TUNABLE_SET can be used to set the value of the tunable,
although this is currently possible only in the dynamic linker before
it relocates itself. For example:
TUNABLE_SET (check, int32_t, 2)
will set glibc.malloc.check to 2. Of course, this is not possible
since we set (or read) glibc.malloc.check long after it is relocated.
To access or set a tunable outside of TUNABLE_NAMESPACE, use the
TUNABLE_GET_FULL and TUNABLE_SET_FULL macros, which have the following
prototype:
TUNABLE_GET_FULL (glibc, tune, hwcap_mask, uint64_t, NULL)
TUNABLE_SET_FULL (glibc, tune, hwcap_mask, uint64_t, 0xffff)
In future the tunable list may get split into mutable and immutable
tunables where mutable tunables can be modified by the library and
userspace after relocation as well and TUNABLE_SET will be more useful
than it currently is. However whenever we actually do that split, we
will have to ensure that the mutable tunables are protected with
locks.

Recognize the uint64_t type in addition to the current int32_t and
size_t. This allows addition of tunables of uint64_t types. In
addition to adding the uint64_t type, this patch also consolidates
validation and reading of integer types in tunables.
One notable change is that of overflow computation in
tunables_strtoul. The function was lifted from __internal_strtoul,
but it does not need the boundary condition check (i.e. result ==
ULONG_MAX) since it does not need to set errno. As a result the check
can be simplified, which I have now done.

Since commit 8b9e9c3c0bae497ad5e2d0ae2f333f62feddcc12, security_level replaces
is_secure. There were some old files need to be updated.

The tunables framework allows us to uniformly manage and expose global
variables inside glibc as switches to users. tunables/README has
instructions for glibc developers to add new tunables.
Tunables support can be enabled by passing the --enable-tunables
configure flag to the configure script. This patch only adds a
framework and does not pose any limitations on how tunable values are
read from the user. It also adds environment variables used in malloc
behaviour tweaking to the tunables framework as a PoC of the
compatibility interface.
