2021-03-02ld.so: Implement the --list-diagnostics optionFlorian Weimer
2021-01-15ld.so: Add --list-tunables to print tunable valuesH.J. Lu
Pass --list-tunables to ld.so to print tunables with min and max values. Reviewed-by: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>
2021-01-02Update copyright dates with scripts/update-copyrightsPaul Eggert
I used these shell commands: ../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright (cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]") and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning: copyright statement not found" for each of 6694 files FOO. I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this diagnostic from Savannah: remote: *** pre-commit check failed ... remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
2020-12-04elf: Add glibc-hwcaps support for LD_LIBRARY_PATHFlorian Weimer
This hacks non-power-set processing into _dl_important_hwcaps. Once the legacy hwcaps handling goes away, the subdirectory handling needs to be reworked, but it is premature to do this while both approaches are still supported. ld.so supports two new arguments, --glibc-hwcaps-prepend and --glibc-hwcaps-mask. Each accepts a colon-separated list of glibc-hwcaps subdirectory names. The prepend option adds additional subdirectories that are searched first, in the specified order. The mask option restricts the automatically selected subdirectories to those listed in the option argument. For example, on systems where /usr/lib64 is on the library search path, --glibc-hwcaps-prepend=valgrind:debug causes the dynamic loader to search the directories /usr/lib64/glibc-hwcaps/valgrind and /usr/lib64/glibc-hwcaps/debug just before /usr/lib64 is searched.

2020-10-08elf: Implement ld.so --versionFlorian Weimer
This prints out version information for the dynamic loader and exits immediately, without further command line processing (which seems to match what some GNU tools do). Reviewed-by: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>
2020-10-08elf: Implement ld.so --helpFlorian Weimer
--help processing is deferred to the point where the executable has been loaded, so that it is possible to eventually include information from the main executable in the help output. As suggested in the GNU command-line interface guidelines, the help message is printed to standard output, and the exit status is successful. Handle usage errors closer to the GNU command-line interface guidelines. Reviewed-by: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>
2020-10-08elf: Record whether paths come from LD_LIBRARY_PATH or --library-pathFlorian Weimer
This allows more precise LD_DEBUG diagnostics. Reviewed-by: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>
2020-10-08elf: Move ld.so error/help output to _dl_usageFlorian Weimer
Also add a comment to elf/Makefile, explaining why we cannot use config.status for autoconf template processing. Reviewed-by: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>
2020-10-08elf: Extract command-line/environment variables state from rtld.cFlorian Weimer
Introduce struct dl_main_state and move it to <dl-main.h>. Rename enum mode to enum rtld_mode and add the rtld_mode_ prefix to the enum constants. This avoids the need for putting state that is only needed during startup into the ld.so data segment.
