Commit 6c9e1be87a37bf wrongly fixes BZ#20847 by lefting the else branch
on maybe_script_execute to still being able to invalid write on stack
allocated buffer. It happens if execvp{e} is executed with an empty
arguments list ({ NULL }) and although manual states first argument
should be the script name itself, by convention, old and current
implementation allows it.
This patch fixes the issue by just account for arguments and not the
final 'NULL' (since the 'argv + 1' will indeed ignored the script name).
The empty argument list is handled in a special case with a minimum
allocated size. The patch also adds extra tests for such case in
tst-vfork3.
Tested on x86_64.
[BZ #20847]
* posix/execvpe.c (maybe_script_execute): Remove write past allocated
array bounds for else branch.
(__execvpe): Style fixes.
* posix/tst-vfork3.c (run_script): New function.
(create_script): Likewise.
(do_test): Use run_script internal function.
(do_prepare): Use create_script internal function.

This patch fixes an invalid write out or stack allocated buffer in
2 places at execvpe implementation:
1. On 'maybe_script_execute' function where it allocates the new
argument list and it does not account that a minimum of argc
plus 3 elements (default shell path, script name, arguments,
and ending null pointer) should be considered. The straightforward
fix is just to take account of the correct list size on argument
copy.
2. On '__execvpe' where the executable file name lenght may not
account for ending '\0' and thus subsequent path creation may
write past array bounds because it requires to add the terminating
null. The fix is to change how to calculate the executable name
size to add the final '\0' and adjust the rest of the code
accordingly.
As described in GCC bug report 78433 [1], these issues were masked off by
GCC because it allocated several bytes more than necessary so that many
off-by-one bugs went unnoticed.
Checked on x86_64 with a latest GCC (7.0.0 20161121) with -O3 on CFLAGS.

This patch removes all the dynamic allocation on execvpe code and
instead use direct stack allocation. This is QoI approach to make
it possible use in scenarios where memory is shared with parent
(vfork or clone with CLONE_VM).
For default process spawn (script file without a shebang), stack
allocation is bounded by NAME_MAX plus PATH_MAX plus 1. Large
file arguments returns an error (ENAMETOOLONG). This differs than
current GLIBC pratice in general, but it used to limit stack
allocation for large inputs. Also, path in PATH environment variable
larger than PATH_MAX are ignored.
The shell direct execution exeception, where execve returns ENOEXEC,
might requires a large stack allocation due large input argument list.
Tested on i686, x86_64, powerpc64le, and aarch64.
* posix/execvpe.c (__execvpe): Remove dynamic allocation.
* posix/Makefile (tests): Add tst-execvpe{1,2,3,4,5,6}.

This automatically-generated patch converts 24 function definitions in
glibc from old-style K&R to prototype-style. Following my other
recent such patches, this one deals with the case of functions with
array parameters.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed stripped
shared libraries are unchanged by the patch).
* crypt/cert.c (main): Convert to prototype-style function
definition.

There is some existing practice in other OSes and it's trivial to
implement giving the existing code. Fixes BZ #10221.
