2024-02-01Refer to C23 in place of C2X in glibcJoseph Myers1-3/+3
WG14 decided to use the name C23 as the informal name of the next revision of the C standard (notwithstanding the publication date in 2024). Update references to C2X in glibc to use the C23 name. This is intended to update everything *except* where it involves renaming files (the changes involving renaming tests are intended to be done separately). In the case of the _ISOC2X_SOURCE feature test macro - the only user-visible interface involved - support for that macro is kept for backwards compatibility, while adding _ISOC23_SOURCE. Tested for x86_64.

These functions are about to be added to POSIX, under Austin Group issue 986. The fortified strlcat implementation does not raise SIGABRT if the destination buffer does not contain a null terminator, it just inherits the non-failing regular strlcat behavior.

2021-10-26String: Add support for __memcmpeq() ABI on all targetsNoah Goldstein1-0/+16
No bug. This commit adds support for __memcmpeq() as a new ABI for all targets. In this commit __memcmpeq() is implemented only as an alias to the corresponding targets memcmp() implementation. __memcmpeq() is added as a new symbol starting with GLIBC_2.35 and defined in string.h with comments explaining its behavior. Basic tests that it is callable and works where added in string/tester.c As discussed in the proposal "Add new ABI '__memcmpeq()' to libc" __memcmpeq() is essentially a reserved namespace for bcmp(). The means is shares the same specifications as memcmp() except the return value for non-equal byte sequences is any non-zero value. This is less strict than memcmp()'s return value specification and can be better optimized when a boolean return is all that is needed. __memcmpeq() is meant to only be called by compilers if they can prove that the return value of a memcmp() call is only used for its boolean value. All tests in string/tester.c passed. As well build succeeds on x86_64-linux-gnu target.
2021-10-20Correct access attribute on memfrob (bug 28475)Joseph Myers1-1/+1
As noted in bug 28475, the access attribute on memfrob in <string.h> is incorrect: the function both reads and writes the memory pointed to by its argument, so it needs to use __read_write__, not __write_only__. This incorrect attribute results in a build failure for accessing uninitialized memory for s390x-linux-gnu-O3 with build-many-glibcs.py using GCC mainline. Correct the attribute. Fixing this shows up that some calls to memfrob in elf/ tests are reading uninitialized memory; I'm not entirely sure of the purpose of those calls, but guess they are about ensuring that the stack space is indeed allocated at that point in the function, and so it matters that they are calling a function whose semantics are unknown to the compiler. Thus, change the first memfrob call in those tests to use explicit_bzero instead, as suggested by Florian in <https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2021-October/132119.html>, to avoid the use of uninitialized memory. Tested for x86_64, and with build-many-glibcs.py (GCC mainline) for s390x-linux-gnu-O3.
2021-10-20Don't add access size hints to fortifiable functionsSiddhesh Poyarekar1-1/+1
In the context of a function definition, the size hints imply that the size of an object pointed to by one parameter is another parameter. This doesn't make sense for the fortified versions of the functions since that's the bit it's trying to validate. This is harmless with __builtin_object_size since it has fairly simple semantics when it comes to objects passed as function parameters. With __builtin_dynamic_object_size we could (as my patchset for gcc[1] already does) use the access attribute to determine the object size in the general case but it misleads the fortified functions. Basically the problem occurs when access attributes are present on regular functions that have inline fortified definitions to generate _chk variants; the attributes get inherited by these definitions, causing problems when analyzing them. For example with poll(fds, nfds, timeout), nfds is hinted using the __attr_access as being the size of fds. Now, when analyzing the inline function definition in bits/poll2.h, the compiler sees that nfds is the size of fds and tries to use that information in the function body. In _FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 case, where the object size could be a non-constant expression, this information results in the conclusion that nfds is the size of fds, which defeats the purpose of the implementation because we're trying to check here if nfds does indeed represent the size of fds. Hence for this case, it is best to not have the access attribute. With the attributes gone, the expression evaluation should get delayed until the function is actually inlined into its destinations. Disable the access attribute for fortified function inline functions when building at _FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 to make this work better. The access attributes remain for the _chk variants since they can be used by the compiler to warn when the caller is passing invalid arguments.

Without the asm redirects, strchr et al. are not const-correct. libc++ has a wrapper header that works with and without __CORRECT_ISO_CPP_STRING_H_PROTO (using a Clang extension). But when Clang is used with libstdc++ or just C headers, the overloaded functions with the correct types are not declared. This change does not impact current GCC (with libstdc++ or libc++).

2017-06-20Rename xlocale.h to bits/types/__locale_t.h.Zack Weinberg1-1/+2
xlocale.h is already a single-type micro-header, defining struct __locale_struct and the typedefs __locale_t and locale_t. This patch brings it into the bits/types/ scheme: there are now bits/types/__locale_t.h which defines only __locale_struct and __locale_t, and bits/types/locale_t.h which defines locale_t as well as the other two. None of *our* headers need __locale_t.h, but it appears to me that libstdc++ could make use of it. There are a lot of external uses of xlocale.h, but all the uses I checked had an autoconf test or equivalent for its existence. It has never been available from other C libraries, and it has always contained a comment reading "This file is not standardized, don't rely on it, it can go away without warning" so I think dropping it is pretty safe. I also took the opportunity to clean up comments in various public header files that still talk about the *_l interfaces as though they were completely nonstandard. There are a few of them, notably the strtoX_l and wcstoX_l families, that haven't been standardized, but the bulk are in POSIX.1-2008. * locale/xlocale.h: Rename to... * locale/bits/types/__locale_t.h: ...here.

2017-03-16Remove C++ namespace handling from glibc headers.Joseph Myers1-14/+0
glibc headers include some code (not particularly consistent or systematic) to put various declarations in C++ namespaces std and __c99, if _GLIBCPP_USE_NAMESPACES is defined.

I don't expect compilation with such old versions of libstdc++ to work with current glibc headers anyway (whereas old *binaries* are expected to stay working with current glibc); this patch (which should be a no-op with any libstdc++ version postdating that removal) removes all this code from the glibc headers. The begin-end-check.pl test, whose comments say it is about checking these namespace macro calls, is also removed. The code in that test would have covered __BEGIN_DECLS / __END_DECLS as well, but if those weren't properly matched it would show up with the check-installed-headers-cxx tests, so I don't think there is an actual use for keeping begin-end-check.pl with the namespace code removed.

2016-12-16New string function explicit_bzero (from OpenBSD).Zack Weinberg1-0/+4
explicit_bzero(s, n) is the same as memset(s, 0, n), except that the compiler is not allowed to delete a call to explicit_bzero even if the memory pointed to by 's' is dead after the call. Right now, this effect is achieved externally by having explicit_bzero be a function whose semantics are unknown to the compiler, and internally, with a no-op asm statement that clobbers memory. This does mean that small explicit_bzero operations cannot be expanded inline as small memset operations can, but on the other hand, small memset operations do get deleted by the compiler. Hopefully full compiler support for explicit_bzero will happen relatively soon. There are two new tests: test-explicit_bzero.c verifies the visible semantics in the same way as the existing test-bzero.c, and tst-xbzero-opt.c verifies the not-being-optimized-out property. The latter is conceptually based on a test written by Matthew Dempsky for the OpenBSD regression suite. The crypt() implementation has an immediate use for this new feature. We avoid having to add a GLIBC_PRIVATE alias for explicit_bzero by running all of libcrypt's calls through the fortified variant, __explicit_bzero_chk, which is in the impl namespace anyway. Currently I'm not aware of anything in libc proper that needs this, but the glue is all in place if it does become necessary. The legacy DES implementation wasn't bothering to clear its buffers, so I added that, mostly for consistency's sake. * string/explicit_bzero.c: New routine. * string/test-explicit_bzero.c, string/tst-xbzero-opt.c: New tests. * string/Makefile (routines, strop-tests, tests): Add them. * string/test-memset.c: Add ifdeffage for testing explicit_bzero. * string/string.h [__USE_MISC]: Declare explicit_bzero. * debug/explicit_bzero_chk.c: New routine. * debug/Makefile (routines): Add it. * debug/tst-chk1.c: Test fortification of explicit_bzero. * string/bits/string3.h: Fortify explicit_bzero. * manual/string.texi: Document explicit_bzero. * NEWS: Mention addition of explicit_bzero. * crypt/crypt-entry.c (__crypt_r): Clear key-dependent intermediate data before returning, using explicit_bzero. * crypt/md5-crypt.c (__md5_crypt_r): Likewise. * crypt/sha256-crypt.c (__sha256_crypt_r): Likewise. * crypt/sha512-crypt.c (__sha512_crypt_r): Likewise. * include/string.h: Redirect internal uses of explicit_bzero to __explicit_bzero_chk[_internal]. * string/Versions [GLIBC_2.25]: Add explicit_bzero. * debug/Versions [GLIBC_2.25]: Add __explicit_bzero_chk. * sysdeps/arm/nacl/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/hppa/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ia64/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/m68k/coldfire/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/m68k/m680x0/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/microblaze/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips32/fpu/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips32/nofpu/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips64/n32/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips64/n64/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/nios2/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc32/fpu/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc32/nofpu/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc64/libc-le.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc64/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/s390/s390-32/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/s390/s390-64/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sh/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sparc/sparc32/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sparc/sparc64/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tile/tilegx/tilegx32/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tile/tilegx/tilegx64/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tile/tilepro/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/64/libc.abilist * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/x32/libc.abilist: Add entries for explicit_bzero and __explicit_bzero_chk.

2016-08-02Support __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT2__ feature test macro.Joseph Myers1-3/+5
This patch implements support for the __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT2__ feature test macro from ISO/IEC TR 24731-2:2010, thereby implementing one possible approach for supporting ISO C feature test macros. Recall that, as described in <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-05/msg00486.html>, these macros work based on the definition when affected headers are included, so cannot be handled once when the first system header is included because that might not be one of the headers the particular macro in question affects. <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-05/msg00680.html> expresses views on possible approaches for implementation and <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-06/msg00039.html> follows up on that. This patch arranges things so that the relevant condition is __GLIBC_USE (LIB_EXT2), following one of the suggestions given. Headers using these macros include <bits/libc-header-start.h>, which in turn includes <features.h>. Headers must define __GLIBC_INTERNAL_STARTING_HEADER_IMPLEMENTATION before including <bits/libc-header-start.h>, to discourage inclusion outside glibc as requested. __USE_GNU conditions on affected functions are changed to __GLIBC_USE (LIB_EXT2), while it's added as an additional alternative on the conditions for functions already enabled for some POSIX versions. It would be possible to convert existing __USE_* conditionals to __GLIBC_USE (with the relevant __GLIBC_USE_* being defined in <features.h> where __USE_* are presently defined), and so make them typo-proof (given -Wundef -Werror in glibc builds) because __GLIBC_USE is used wit
