2023-10-30crypt: Remove libcrypt supportAdhemerval Zanella
All the crypt related functions, cryptographic algorithms, and make requirements are removed, with only the exception of md5 implementation which is moved to locale folder since it is required by localedef for integrity protection (libc's locale-reading code does not check these, but localedef does generate them). Besides thec code itself, both internal documentation and the manual is also adjusted. This allows to remove both --enable-crypt and --enable-nss-crypt configure options. Checked with a build for all affected ABIs. Co-authored-by: Zack Weinberg <zack@owlfolio.org> Reviewed-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com>

2023-07-05Allow glibc to be built with _FORTIFY_SOURCEFrédéric Bérat
Add --enable-fortify-source option. It is now possible to enable fortification through a configure option. The level may be given as parameter, if none is provided, the configure script will determine what is the highest level possible that can be set considering GCC built-ins availability and set it. If level is explicitly set to 3, configure checks if the compiler supports the built-in function necessary for it or raise an error if it isn't. If the configure option isn't explicitly enabled, it _FORTIFY_SOURCE is forcibly undefined (and therefore disabled). The result of the configure checks are new variables, ${fortify_source} and ${no_fortify_source} that can be used to appropriately populate CFLAGS. A dedicated patch will follow to make use of this variable in Makefiles when necessary. Updated NEWS and INSTALL. Adding dedicated x86_64 variant that enables the configuration.

2022-08-25Revert "Detect ld.so and libc.so version inconsistency during startup"Florian Weimer
This reverts commit 6f85dbf102ad7982409ba0fe96886caeb6389fef. Once this change hits the release branches, it will require relinking of all statically linked applications before static dlopen works again, for the majority of updates on release branches: The NEWS file is regularly updated with bug references, so the __libc_early_init suffix changes, and static dlopen cannot find the function anymore. While this ABI check is still technically correct (we do require rebuilding & relinking after glibc updates to keep static dlopen working), it is too drastic for stable release branches.

2022-08-24Detect ld.so and libc.so version inconsistency during startupFlorian Weimer
The files NEWS, include/link.h, and sysdeps/generic/ldsodefs.h contribute to the version fingerprint used for detection. The fingerprint can be further refined using the --with-extra-version-id configure argument. _dl_call_libc_early_init is replaced with _dl_lookup_libc_early_init. The new function is used store a pointer to libc.so's __libc_early_init function in the libc_map_early_init member of the ld.so namespace structure. This function pointer can then be called directly, so the separate invocation function is no longer needed. The versioned symbol lookup needs the symbol versioning data structures, so the initialization of libc_map and libc_map_early_init is now done from _dl_check_map_versions, after this information becomes available. (_dl_map_object_from_fd does not set this up in time, so the initialization code had to be moved from there.) This means that the separate initialization code can be removed from dl_main because _dl_check_map_versions covers all maps, including the initial executable loaded by the kernel. The lookup still happens before relocation and the invocation of IFUNC resolvers, so IFUNC resolvers are protected from ABI mismatch. The __libc_early_init function pointer is not protected because so little code runs between the pointer write and the invocation (only dynamic linker code and IFUNC resolvers).

2021-12-13Replace --enable-static-pie with --disable-default-pieSiddhesh Poyarekar
Build glibc programs and tests as PIE by default and enable static-pie automatically if the architecture and toolchain supports it. Also add a new configuration option --disable-default-pie to prevent building programs as PIE. Only the following architectures now have PIE disabled by default because they do not work at the moment. hppa, ia64, alpha and csky don't work because the linker is unable to handle a pcrel relocation generated from PIE objects. The microblaze compiler is currently failing with an ICE. GNU hurd tries to enable static-pie, which does not work and hence fails. All these targets have default PIE disabled at the moment and I have left it to the target maintainers to enable PIE on their targets. build-many-glibcs runs clean for all targets. I also tested x86_64 on Fedora and Ubuntu, to verify that the default build as well as --disable-default-pie work as expected with both system toolchains.

GNU ld and gold have supported --print-output-format since 2011. glibc requires binutils>=2.25 (2015), so if LD is GNU ld or gold, we can assume the option is supported. lld is by default a cross linker supporting multiple targets.

Sun RPC was removed from glibc. This includes rpcgen program, librpcsvc, and Sun RPC headers. Also test for bug #20790 was removed (test for rpcgen). Backward compatibility for old programs is kept only for architectures and ABIs that have been added in or before version 2.28. libtirpc is mature enough, librpcsvc and rpcgen are provided in rpcsvc-proto project. NOTE: libnsl code depends on Sun RPC (installed libnsl headers use installed Sun RPC headers), thus --enable-obsolete-rpc was a dependency for --enable-obsolete-nsl (removed in a previous commit).

2018-09-25Fix ifunc support with DT_TEXTREL segments (BZ#20480)Adhemerval Zanella
Currently, DT_TEXTREL is incompatible with IFUNC. When DT_TEXTREL or DF_TEXTREL is seen, the dynamic linker calls __mprotect on the segments with PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE before applying dynamic relocations. It leads to segfault when performing IFUNC resolution (which requires PROT_EXEC as well for the IFUNC resolver). This patch makes it call __mprotect with extra PROT_WRITE bit, which will keep the PROT_EXEC bit if exists, and thus fixes the segfault. FreeBSD rtld libexec/rtld-elf/rtld.c (reloc_textrel_prot) does the same.

2017-12-12Remove --with-fp / --without-fp.Joseph Myers
There is a configure option --without-fp that specifies that nofpu sysdeps directories should be used instead of fpu directories. For most glibc configurations, this option is of no use: either there is no valid nofpu variant of that configuration, or there are no fpu or nofpu sysdeps directories for that processor and so the option does nothing. For a few configurations, if you are using a soft-float compiler this option is required, and failing to use it generally results in compilation errors from inline asm using unavailable floating-point instructions. We're moving away from --with-cpu to configuring glibc based on how the compiler generates code, and it is natural to do so for --without-fp as well; in most cases the soft-float and hard-float ABIs are incompatible so you have no hope of building a working glibc with an inappropriately configured compiler or libgcc. This patch eliminates --without-fp, replacing it entirely by automatic configuration based on the compiler. Configurations for which this is relevant (coldfire / mips / powerpc32 / sh) define a variable with_fp_cond in their preconfigure fragments (under the same conditions under which those fragments do anything); this is a preprocessor conditional which the toplevel configure script then uses in a test to determine which sysdeps directories to use. The config.make with-fp variable remains. It's used only by powerpc (sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/Makefile) to add -mhard-float to various flags variables. For powerpc, -mcpu= options can imply use of soft-float. That could be an issue if you want to build for e.g. 476fp, but are using --with-cpu=476 because there isn't a 476fp sysdeps directory. If in future we eliminate --with-cpu and replace it entirely by testing the compiler, it would be natural at that point to eliminate that code as well (as the user should then just use a compiler defaulting to 476fp and the 476 sysdeps directory would be used automatically). Tested for x86_64, and tested with build-many-glibcs.py that installed shared libraries are unchanged by this patch. * configure.ac (--with-fp): Remove configure option. (with_fp_cond): New variable.

2017-12-05Add elision tunablesRogerio Alves
This patch adds several new tunables to control the behavior of elision on supported platforms[1]. Since elision now depends on tunables, we should always *compile* with elision enabled, and leave the code disabled, but available for runtime selection.

2017-10-05Remove add-ons mechanism.Joseph Myers
glibc has an add-ons mechanism to allow additional software to be integrated into the glibc build. Such add-ons may be within the glibc source tree, or outside it at a path passed to the --enable-add-ons configure option. localedata and crypt were once add-ons, distributed in separate release tarballs, but long since stopped using that mechanism. Linuxthreads was always an add-on. Ports spent some time as an add-on with separate release tarballs, then was first moved into the glibc source tree, then had its sysdeps files moved into the main sysdeps hierarchy so the add-ons mechanism was no longer used. NPTL spent some time as an add-on in the main glibc tree before stopping using the add-on mechanism. libidn used to have separate release tarballs but no longer does so, but still uses the add-ons mechanism within the glibc source tree. Various other software has supported building with the add-ons mechanism at times in the past, but I don't think any is still widely used. Add-ons involve significant, little-used complexity in the glibc build system, and make it hard to understand what the space of possible glibc configurations is. This patch removes the add-ons mechanism. libidn is now built via the Subdirs mechanism to cause any configuration using sysdeps/unix/inet to build libidn; HAVE_LIBIDN (which effectively means shared libraries are available) is now defined via sysdeps/unix/inet/configure. Various references to add-ons around the source tree are removed (in the case of maint.texi, the example list of sysdeps directories is still very out of date). Externally maintained ports should now put their files in the normal sysdeps directory structure rather than being arranged as add-ons; they probably need to change e.g. elf.h anyway, rather than actually being able to work just as a drop-in subtree. Hurd libpthread should be arranged similarly to NPTL, so some files might go in a hurd-pthreads (or similar) top-level directory in glibc, while sysdeps files should go in the normal sysdeps directory structure (possibly in hurd or hurd-pthreads subdirectories, just as there are nptl subdirectories in the sysdeps tree).

2016-12-31Add framework for tunablesSiddhesh Poyarekar
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. * manual/install.texi: Add --enable-tunables option. * INSTALL: Regenerate. * README.tunables: New file. * Makeconfig (CPPFLAGS): Define TOP_NAMESPACE.

2016-12-26Disable stack protector in early static initialization [BZ #7065]Nick Alcock
The startup code in csu/, and the brk and sbrk functions are needed very early in initialization of a statically-linked program, before the stack guard is initialized; TLS initialization also uses memcpy, which cannot overrun its own stack. Mark all of these as -fno-stack-protector. We also finally introduce @libc_cv_ssp@ and @no_stack_protector@, both substituted by the configury changes made earlier, to detect the case when -fno-stack-protector is supported by the compiler, and unconditionally pass it in when this is the case, whether or not --enable-stack-protector is passed to configure. (This means that it'll even work when the compiler's been hacked to pass -fstack-protector by default, unless the hackage is so broken that it does so in a way that is impossible to override.)
2016-12-22Add configure check for python programSiddhesh Poyarekar
Add a configure check that looks for python3 and python in that order since we had agreed in the past to prefer python3 over python in all our code. The patch also adjusts invocations through the various Makefiles to use the set variable. * configure.ac: Check for python3 or python. * configure: Regenerated. * config.make.in (PYTHON): New variable. * benchtests/Makefile: Don't define PYTHON. (bench): Define target only if PYTHON was defined. * Rules: Don't define PYTHON. Define pretty printer targets only if PYTHON was defined. (tests-printers): Add to tests-unsupported if PYTHON is not found. (python-flags, python-invoke): Remove. (tests-printers-out): Use PYTHON instead of python-invoke.
2016-12-02Bug 20918 - Building with --enable-nss-crypt fails tst-linkall-staticCarlos O'Donell
Some configurations may use NSS cryptographic routines but have no static library for those routines. The following changes allow glibc to be built and tested with --enable-nss-crypt, but without having a static NSS library. At a high level the change does two things: (1) Detect at configure time if static NSS crypto libraries are available. Assumes libfreebl3.a (instead of the existing Fedora libfreebl.a which is incomplete) which matches libfreebl3.so. (2) If static NSS crypto libraries are _not_ available then adjust the way in which we build tst-linkall-static. This includes excluding a reference to crypt and not linking against libcrypt.a, all of which will fail otherwise. Testing assumptions: * Static library is named libfreebl3.a (not libfreebl.a as is currently provided in Fedora), matching libfreebl3.so shared link name. Tested on x86_64 on Fedora with: (a) --enable-nss-crypt, with no static NSS library support: PASS (previous FAIL) (b) --enable-nss-crypt, with faked static NSS library support: PASS (unsupported) * Requires changing elf/Makefile to include a stub /lib64/libfreebl3.a for testing purposes. (c) --disable-nss-crypt: PASS (default) No regressions on x86_64. For details see: https://www.sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-11/msg00647.html

This reduces the build time somewhat and is particularly noticeable during rebuilds with few code changes.
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
2015-11-27Rename localedir to complocaledir (bug 14259).Carlos O'Donell
In preparation to fix the --localedir configure argument we must move the existing conflicting definition of localedir to a more appropriate name. Given that all current internal uses of localedir relate to the compiled locales we rename to complocaledir.

2015-10-27Remove sysdeps/nptl/configure.ac.Joseph Myers
sysdeps/nptl/configure.ac tests for forced unwind support and the C cleanup attribute, giving errors if either is unsupported. It does nothing beyond running those two tests. Both the attribute, and _Unwind_GetCFA which is used in the forced unwind test, were added in GCC 3.3. Thus these tests are long obsolete, and this patch removes the configure fragment running them, along with associated conditionals. Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed stripped shared libraries are unchanged by the patch). * sysdeps/nptl/configure.ac: Remove file. * sysdeps/nptl/configure: Remove generated file. * configure.ac (libc_cv_forced_unwind): Do not substitute. * configure: Regenerated. * config.h.in (HAVE_FORCED_UNWIND): Remove #undef. * config.make.in (have-forced-unwind): Remove variable. * nptl/Makefile [$(have-forced-unwind) = yes]: Make code unconditional. * nptl/descr.h [HAVE_FORCED_UNWIND]: Likewise. * nptl/unwind.c [HAVE_FORCED_UNWIND]: Likewise.

2015-10-26Remove support for removing glibc 2.0 headers.Joseph Myers
There is a configure test for the presence of glibc 2.0 headers (that were renamed / no longer installed in glibc 2.1) and associated support for removing them on "make install". Normal practice for subsequent removal / renaming of installed files has been not to do anything special about removing them; if you want installed files from an old installation removed reliably, you need to use a packaging system that tracks what files were installed by a previous glibc package (via installing in an intermediate directory with install_root). I think it's been long enough since 2.0 that it's not particularly useful to have that special logic for those old headers either; this patch removes it. Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed shared libraries are unchanged by the patch). * configure.ac (old_glibc_headers): Remove configure test. * configure: Regenerated. * config.make.in (old-glibc-headers): Remove variable. * Makefile [!$(install_root) && $(old-glibc-headers) = yes] (install): Remove dependency on remove-old-headers. (headers2_0): Remove variable. (remove-old-headers): Remove rule.
2015-10-19use -fstack-protector-strong when availableMike Frysinger
With gcc-4.9, a new -fstack-protector-strong flag is available that is between -fstack-protector (pretty weak) and -fstack-protector-all (pretty strong) that provides good trade-offs between overhead but still providing good coverage. Update the places in glibc that use ssp to use this flag when it's available. This also kills off the indirection of hardcoding the flag name in the Makefiles and adding it based on a have-ssp boolean. Instead, the build always expands the $(stack-protector) variable to the best ssp setting. This makes the build logic a bit simpler and allows people to easily set to a diff flag like: make stack-protector=-fstack-protector-all
2015-10-19Remove -fgnu89-inline configure test.Joseph Myers
