2021-07-09Force building with -fno-commonFlorian Weimer1-1/+5
As a result, is not necessary to specify __attribute__ ((nocommon)) on individual definitions. GCC 10 defaults to -fno-common on all architectures except ARC, but this change is compatible with older GCC versions and ARC, too. Reviewed-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com>
2021-07-02resolv: Move libanl into libc (if libpthread is in libc)Florian Weimer1-0/+2
The symbols gai_cancel, gai_error, gai_suspend, getaddrinfo_a, __gai_suspend_time64 were moved using scripts/move-symbol-to-libc.py. For Hurd (which remains !PTHREAD_IN_LIBC), a few #define redirects had to be added because several pthread functions are not available under __. (Linux uses __ prefixes for most hidden aliases, and has to in some cases to avoid linknamespace issues.)

2021-06-17Makeconfig: Fix time64-compat.mk targetSiddhesh Poyarekar1-4/+4
The time64-compat.i needed for the time64-compat.mk Makeconfig include ends up trying to include libc-modules.h, which is not generated until later. This results in an error during build which is not noticed because it somehow does not terminate the build. Exclude the modules cppflags from the pre-processing command and fix up the time64-compat.mk target so that the build runs without issues. Reviewed-by: Andreas Schwab <schwab@linux-m68k.org>

It is enabled through a new rule, tests-y2038, which is built only when the ABI supports the comapt 64-bit time_t (defined by the header time64-compat.h, which also enables the creation of the symbol Version for Linux).

2020-04-29Makeconfig: Use $(error ...) to output error messageSimon Marchi1-1/+1
Being not familiar with the glibc repository, I typed "make" inside some subdirectory that has a Makefile, and was met with: $ make ../Makeconfig:42: *** missing separator. Stop. At Makeconfig:42, we have: objdir must be defined by the build-directory Makefile. Change that to use $(error ...), which I guess was the original intention. The result is: $ make ../Makeconfig:42: *** objdir must be defined by the build-directory Makefile. Stop.

2019-04-26Makeconfig: Move -Wl,-rpath-link options before library referencesFlorian Weimer1-5/+14
Previously, the -Wl,-rpath-link options came after the libraries injected using LDLIBS-* variables on the link editor command line for main programs. As a result, it could happen that installed libraries that reference glibc libraries used the installed glibc from the system directories, instead of the glibc from the build tree. This can lead to link failures if the wrong version of libpthread.so.0 is used, for instance, due to differences in the internal GLIBC_PRIVATE interfaces, as seen with memusagestat and -lgd after commit f9b645b4b0a10c43753296ce3fa40053fa44606a ("memusagestat: use local glibc when linking [BZ #18465]"). The isolation is necessarily imperfect because these installed libraries are linked against the installed glibc in the system directories. However, in most cases, the built glibc will be newer than the installed glibc, and this link is permitted because of the ABI backwards compatibility glibc provides.

2019-01-07Only build libm with -fno-math-errno (bug 24024)Aurelien Jarno1-2/+4
Commit 1294b1892e ("Add support for sqrt asm redirects") added the -fno-math-errno flag to build most of the glibc in order to enable GCC to inline math functions. Due to GCC bug #88576, saving and restoring errno around calls to malloc are optimized-out. In turn this causes strerror to set errno to ENOMEM if it get passed an invalid error number and if malloc sets errno to ENOMEM (which might happen even if it succeeds). This is not allowed by POSIX. This patch changes the build flags, building only libm with -fno-math-errno and all the remaining code with -fno-math-errno. This should be safe as libm doesn't contain any code saving and restoring errno around malloc. This patch can probably be reverted once the GCC bug is fixed and available in stable releases. Tested on x86-64, no regression in the testsuite. Changelog: [BZ #24024] * Makeconfig: Build libm with -fno-math-errno but build the remaining code with -fmath-errno. * string/Makefile [$(build-shared)] (tests): Add test-strerror-errno.

2018-03-15Add support for sqrt asm redirectsWilco Dijkstra1-0/+4
This patch series cleans up the many uses of __ieee754_sqrt(f/l) in GLIBC. The goal is to enable GCC to do the inlining, and if this fails call the __ieee754_sqrt function. This is done by internally declaring sqrt with asm redirects. The compat symbols and sqrt wrappers need to disable the redirect. The redirect is also disabled if there are already redirects defined when using -ffinite-math-only. All math functions (but not math tests, non-library code and libnldbl) are built with -fno-math-errno which means GCC will typically inline sqrt as a single instruction. This means targets are no longer forced to add a special inline for sqrt. * include/math.h (sqrt): Declare with asm redirect. (sqrtf): Likewise. (sqrtl): Likewise. (sqrtf128): Likewise. * Makeconfig: Add -fno-math-errno for libc/libm, but build testsuite, nonlib and libnldbl with -fmath-errno. * math/w_sqrt_compat.c: Define NO_MATH_REDIRECT. * math/w_sqrt_template.c: Likewise. * math/w_sqrtf_compat.c: Likewise. * math/w_sqrtl_compat.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/i386/fpu/w_sqrt.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/i386/fpu/w_sqrt_compat.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/generic/math-type-macros-float128.h: Remove math.h and complex.h.

2017-12-15Add --enable-static-pie configure option to build static PIE [BZ #19574]H.J. Lu1-4/+34
Static PIE extends address space layout randomization to static executables. It provides additional security hardening benefits at the cost of some memory and performance. Dynamic linker, ld.so, is a standalone program which can be loaded at any address. This patch adds a configure option, --enable-static-pie, to embed the part of ld.so in static executable to create static position independent executable (static PIE). A static PIE is similar to static executable, but can be loaded at any address without help from a dynamic linker. When --enable-static-pie is used to configure glibc, libc.a is built as PIE and all static executables, including tests, are built as static PIE. The resulting libc.a can be used together with GCC 8 or above to build static PIE with the compiler option, -static-pie. But GCC 8 isn't required to build glibc with --enable-static-pie. Only GCC with PIE support is needed. When an older GCC is used to build glibc with --enable-static-pie, proper input files are passed to linker to create static executables as static PIE, together with "-z text" to prevent dynamic relocations in read-only segments, which are not allowed in static PIE. The following changes are made for static PIE: 1. Add a new function, _dl_relocate_static_pie, to: a. Get the run-time load address. b. Read the dynamic section. c. Perform dynamic relocations. Dynamic linker also performs these steps. But static PIE doesn't load any shared objects. 2. Call _dl_relocate_static_pie at entrance of LIBC_START_MAIN in libc.a. crt1.o, which is used to create dynamic and non-PIE static executables, is updated to include a dummy _dl_relocate_static_pie. rcrt1.o is added to create static PIE, which will link in the real _dl_relocate_static_pie. grcrt1.o is also added to create static PIE with -pg. GCC 8 has been updated to support rcrt1.o and grcrt1.o for static PIE. Static PIE can work on all architectures which support PIE, provided: 1. Target must support accessing of local functions without dynamic relocations, which is needed in start.S to call __libc_start_main with function addresses of __libc_csu_init, __libc_csu_fini and main. All functions in static PIE are local functions. If PIE start.S can't reach main () defined in a shared object, the code sequence: pass address of local_main to __libc_start_main ... local_main: tail call to main via PLT can be used. 2. start.S is updated to check PIC instead SHARED for PIC code path and avoid dynamic relocation, when PIC is defined and SHARED isn't defined, to support static PIE. 3. All assembly codes are updated check PIC instead SHARED for PIC code path to avoid dynamic relocations in read-only sections. 4. All assembly codes are updated check SHARED instead PIC for static symbol name. 5. elf_machine_load_address in dl-machine.h are updated to support static PIE. 6. __brk works without TLS nor dynamic relocations in read-only section so that it can be used by __libc_setup_tls to initializes TLS in static PIE. NB: When glibc is built with GCC defaulted to PIE, libc.a is compiled with -fPIE, regardless if --enable-static-pie is used to configure glibc. When glibc is configured with --enable-static-pie, libc.a is compiled with -fPIE, regardless whether GCC defaults to PIE or not. The same libc.a can be used to build both static executable and static PIE. There is no need for separate PIE copy of libc.a. On x86-64, the normal static sln: text data bss dec hex filename 625425 8284 5456 639165 9c0bd elf/sln the static PIE sln: text data bss dec hex filename 657626 20636 5392 683654 a6e86 elf/sln The code size is increased by 5% and the binary size is increased by 7%. Linker requirements to build glibc with --enable-static-pie: 1. Linker supports --no-dynamic-linker to remove PT_INTERP segment from static PIE. 2. Linker can create working static PIE. The x86-64 linker needs the fix for https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21782 The i386 linker needs to be able to convert "movl main@GOT(%ebx), %eax" to "leal main@GOTOFF(%ebx), %eax" if main is defined locally. Binutils 2.29 or above are OK for i686 and x86-64. But linker status for other targets need to be verified. 3. Linker should resolve undefined weak symbols to 0 in static PIE: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22269 4. Many ELF backend linkers incorrectly check bfd_link_pic for TLS relocations, which should check bfd_link_executable instead: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22263 Tested on aarch64, i686 and x86-64. Using GCC 7 and binutils master branch, build-many-glibcs.py with --enable-static-pie with all patches for static PIE applied have the following build successes: PASS: glibcs-aarch64_be-linux-gnu build PASS: glibcs-aarch64-linux-gnu build PASS: glibcs-armeb-linux-gnueabi-be8 build PASS: glibcs-armeb-linux-gnueabi build PASS: glibcs-armeb-linux-gnueabihf-be8 build PASS: glibcs-armeb-linux-gnueabihf build PASS: glibcs-arm-linux-gnueabi build PASS: glibcs-arm-linux-gnueabihf build PASS: glibcs-arm-linux-gnueabihf-v7a build PASS: glibcs-arm-linux-gnueabihf-v7a-disable-multi-arch build PASS: glibcs-m68k-linux-gnu build PASS: glibcs-microblazeel-linux-gnu build PASS: glibcs-microblaze-linux-gnu build PASS: glibcs-mips64el-linux-gnu-n32 build PASS: glibcs-mips64el-linux-gnu-n32-nan2008 build PASS: glibcs-mips64el-linux-gnu-n32-nan2008-soft build PASS: glibcs-mips64el-linux-gnu-n32-soft build PASS: glibcs-mips64el-linux-gnu-n64 build PASS: glibcs-mips64el-linux-gnu-n64-nan2008 build PASS: glibcs-mips64el-linux-gnu-n64-nan2008-soft build PASS: glibcs-mips64el-linux-gnu-n64-soft build PASS: glibcs-mips64-linux-gnu-n32 build PASS: glibcs-mips64-linux-gnu-n32-nan2008 build PASS: glibcs-mips64-linux-gnu-n32-nan2008-soft build PASS: glibcs-mips64-linux-gnu-n32-soft build PASS: glibcs-mips64-linux-gnu-n64 build PASS: glibcs-mips64-linux-gnu-n64-nan2008 build PASS: glibcs-mips64-linux-gnu-n64-nan2008-soft build PASS: glibcs-mips64-linux-gnu-n64-soft build PASS: glibcs-mipsel-linux-gnu build PASS: glibcs-mipsel-linux-gnu-nan2008 build PASS: glibcs-mipsel-linux-gnu-nan2008-soft build PASS: glibcs-mipsel-linux-gnu-soft build PASS: glibcs-mips-linux-gnu build PASS: glibcs-mips-linux-gnu-nan2008 build PASS: glibcs-mips-linux-gnu-nan2008-soft build PASS: glibcs-mips-linux-gnu-soft build PASS: glibcs-nios2-linux-gnu build PASS: glibcs-powerpc64le-linux-gnu build PASS: glibcs-powerpc64-linux-gnu build PASS: glibcs-tilegxbe-linux-gnu-32 build PASS: glibcs-tilegxbe-linux-gnu build PASS: glibcs-tilegx-linux-gnu-32 build PASS: glibcs-tilegx-linux-gnu build PASS: glibcs-tilepro-linux-gnu build and the following build failures: FAIL: glibcs-alpha-linux-gnu build elf/sln is failed to link due to: assertion fail bfd/elf64-alpha.c:4125 This is caused by linker bug and/or non-PIC code in PIE libc.a.
