2017-06-13Make copy of <bits/std_abs.h> from GCC 7 [BZ #21573]H.J. Lu
<bits/std_abs.h> from GCC 7 will include /usr/include/stdlib.h from "#include_next" (instead of stdlib/stdlib.h in the glibc source directory), and this turns up as a make dependency.

2016-12-31Initialize tunable list with the GLIBC_TUNABLES environment variableSiddhesh Poyarekar
Read tunables values from the users using the GLIBC_TUNABLES environment variable. The value of this variable is a colon-separated list of name=value pairs.

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. (before-compile): Generate dl-tunable-list.h early. * config.h.in: Add HAVE_TUNABLES. * config.make.in: Add have-tunables. * configure.ac: Add --enable-tunables option. * configure: Regenerate. * csu/init-first.c (__libc_init_first): Move __libc_init_secure earlier... * csu/init-first.c (LIBC_START_MAIN):... to here. Include dl-tunables.h, libc-internal.h. (LIBC_START_MAIN) [!SHARED]: Initialize tunables for static binaries. * elf/Makefile (dl-routines): Add dl-tunables. * elf/Versions (ld): Add __tunable_set_val to GLIBC_PRIVATE namespace. * elf/dl-support (_dl_nondynamic_init): Unset MALLOC_CHECK_ only when !HAVE_TUNABLES. * elf/rtld.c (process_envvars): Likewise. * elf/dl-sysdep.c [HAVE_TUNABLES]: Include dl-tunables.h (_dl_sysdep_start): Call __tunables_init. * elf/dl-tunable-types.h: New file. * elf/dl-tunables.c: New file. * elf/dl-tunables.h: New file. * elf/dl-tunables.list: New file. * malloc/tst-malloc-usable-static.c: New test case. * malloc/Makefile (tests-static): Add it. * malloc/arena.c [HAVE_TUNABLES]: Include dl-tunables.h.

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
2016-09-21Avoid running $(CXX) during build to obtain header file pathsFlorian Weimer
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 [$(have-forced-unwind) = yes]: Make code unconditional. * nptl/descr.h [HAVE_FORCED_UNWIND]: Likewise. * nptl/unwind.c [HAVE_FORCED_UNWIND]: Likewise. (__pthread_unwind) [!HAVE_FORCED_UNWIND]: Remove conditional code. * nptl/version.c [HAVE_FORCED_UNWIND]: Make code unconditional. * sysdeps/nptl/Makefile [$(have-forced-unwind) = yes]: Make code unconditional.
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
There is a configure test for -fgnu89-inline. This option was added in GCC 4.2, so the test is obsolete; this patch removes it. Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that installed shared libraries are unchanged by the patch). * configure.ac (libc_cv_gnu89_inline): Remove configure test. * configure: Regenerated. * config.make.in (gnu89-inline-CFLAGS): Remove variable. * Makeconfig (CFLAGS): Use -fgnu89-inline instead of $(gnu89-inline-CFLAGS).
2015-10-15Remove -Bgroup configure test.Joseph Myers
There is a configure test for the -Bgroup linker option whose results aren't used anywhere. This patch removes that test. Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that installed shared libraries are unchanged by the patch). * configure.ac (libc_cv_Bgroup): Remove configure test. * configure: Regenerated. * config.make.in (have-Bgroup): Remove variable.
2015-10-15Remove sizeof (long double) configure test.Joseph Myers

2015-10-15Remove -fexceptions configure test.Joseph Myers
There is a configure test for -fexceptions. This option was added in GCC 2.8, so the test is obsolete - and indeed plenty of code is using -fexceptions directly. This patch removes the configure test and makes all uses of $(exceptions) use -fexceptions directly. Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed shared libraries are unchanged by the patch). * configure.ac (libc_cv_gcc_exceptions): Remove configure test. * configure: Regenerated. * sysdeps/arm/configure.ac (libc_cv_gcc_exceptions): Do not set variable.

2015-10-06Add a test case for C++11 thread_local supportFlorian Weimer
This requires a C++ compiler with thread_local support, and a new configure check is needed.
2015-09-18timezone: add a configure flag to disable program installMike Frysinger
Some distros build+install the timezone tools (zic/zdump/tzselect) outside of glibc and use the upstream package directly. Add a configure flag to glibc so they can disable install of those tools. This allows tests to run & pass regardless of the configure flag. Only the install of them is impacted.
2015-06-25Support compilers defaulting to PIEH.J. Lu
To support building glibc with GCC 6 configured with --enable-default-pie, which generates PIE by default, we need to build programs as PIE. But elf/tst-dlopen-aout must not be built as PIE since it tests dlopen on ET_EXEC file and PIE is ET_DYN. [BZ #17841] * Makeconfig (no-pie-ldflag): New. (+link): Set to $(+link-pie) if default to PIE. (+link-tests): Set to $(+link-pie-tests) if default to PIE. * config.make.in (build-pie-default): New. * configure.ac (libc_cv_pie_default): New. Set to yes if -fPIE is default. AC_SUBST. * configure: Regenerated. * elf/Makefile (LDFLAGS-tst-dlopen-aout): New.
2015-03-31Add a testcase for copy reloc against protected dataH.J. Lu

2014-12-10Use -Werror by default, add --disable-werror.Joseph Myers
As discussed starting at <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-11/msg00323.html>, this patch makes the glibc build use -Werror by default to avoid accidentally adding new warnings to the build. The configure option --disable-werror can be used to disable this. -Wno-error=undef is temporarily used because the build isn't clean regarding -Wundef warnings. The idea is that once the remaining -Wundef warnings have been cleaned up (in at least one configuration), -Wno-error=undef will be removed. I get a clean build and test on x86_64 (GCC 4.9 branch) with this patch. The expectation is that this may well break the build for some other configurations, and people seeing such breakage should make appropriate fixes to fix or suppress the warnings for their configurations. In some cases that may involve using pragmas as the right fix (I think that will be right for the -Wno-inline issue for MIPS I referred to in <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2012-11/msg00798.html>, for example), in some cases -Wno-error in sysdeps makefiles (__restore_rt in MIPS sigaction, for example), in some cases substantive fixes for the warnings. Note that if, with a view to listing all the warnings then fixing them all, you just look for "warning:" in output from building and testing with --disable-werror, you'll see lots of warnings from the linker about functions such as tmpnam. Those warnings can be ignored - only compiler warnings are relevant to -Werror, not linker warnings. * configure.ac (--disable-werror): New configure option.

2014-09-16Remove bitrotten --enable-oldest-abi (bug 6652).Joseph Myers
This patch removes the --enable-oldest-abi configure option, which has long been bitrotten (as reported in bug 6652). The principle of removing this option was agreed in the thread starting at <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2013-07/msg00174.html>. Tested for x86_64 and x86 that the installed shared libraries other than libc.so are unchanged by this patch and that libc.so disassembly and symbol versions are unchanged (debug info changes because of changed line numbers in csu/version.c). [BZ #6652] * Makeconfig (soversions-default-setname): Remove variable. ($(common-objpfx)soversions.i): Don't pass default_setname to soversions.awk. * Makerules ($(common-objpfx)abi-versions.h): Don't pass oldest_abi to abi-versions.awk. * config.h.in (GLIBC_OLDEST_ABI): Remove macro undefine. * config.make.in (oldest-abi): Remove variable. * configure.ac (--enable-oldest-abi): Remove configure option. * configure: Regenerated. * csu/version.c (banner) [GLIBC_OLDEST_ABI]: Remove conditional text. * scripts/abi-versions.awk: Do not handle oldest_abi variable. * scripts/soversions.awk: Do not handle default_setname variable. * sysdeps/mach/hurd/configure.ac: Do not handle oldest_abi variable. * sysdeps/mach/hurd/configure: Regenerated. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/configure.ac: Do not handle oldest_abi variable. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/configure: Regenerated.
2014-05-09S/390: Port of lock elision to System/zDominik Vogt
Added support for TX lock elision of pthread mutexes on s390 and s390x. This may improve lock scaling of existing programs on TX capable systems. The lock elision code is only built with --enable-lock-elision=yes and then requires a GCC version supporting the TX builtins. With lock elision default mutexes are elided via __builtin_tbegin, if the cpu supports transactions. By default lock elision is not enabled and the elision code is not built.
2014-04-06PowerPC: define _CALL_ELF if compiler does notAdhemerval Zanella
This patch makes the configure adds -D_CALL_ELF=1 when compiler does not define _CALL_ELF (versions before powerpc64le support). It cleans up compiler warnings on old compiler where _CALL_ELF is not defined on powerpc64(be) builds. It does by add a new config.make variable for configure-deduced CPPFLAGS and accumulate into that (confix-extra-cppflags). It also generalizes libc_extra_cflags so it accumulates in sysdeps configure fragmenets.
2014-03-13stop supporting bash-1.xMike Frysinger
We've stopped supporting toolchain packages older than 2009, so punting bash-1.x is reasonable when bash-2 was released almost 20 years ago.

2013-07-21CVE-2013-2207, BZ #15755: Disable pt_chown.Carlos O'Donell
The helper binary pt_chown tricked into granting access to another user's pseudo-terminal. Pre-conditions for the attack: * Attacker with local user account * Kernel with FUSE support * "user_allow_other" in /etc/fuse.conf * Victim with allocated slave in /dev/pts Using the setuid installed pt_chown and a weak check on whether a file descriptor is a tty, an attacker could fake a pty check using FUSE and trick pt_chown to grant ownership of a pty descriptor that the current user does not own. It cannot access /dev/pts/ptmx however. In most modern distributions pt_chown is not needed because devpts is enabled by default. The fix for this CVE is to disable building and using pt_chown by default. We still provide a configure option to enable hte use of pt_chown but distributions do so at their own risk.
