      clean up and refactor program initialization · 0a96a37f
      Rich Felker 提交于
      the code in __libc_start_main is now responsible for parsing auxv,
      rather than duplicating the parsing all over the place. this should
      shave off a few cycles and some code size. __init_libc is left as an
      external-linkage function despite the fact that it could be static, to
      prevent it from being inlined and permanently wasting stack space when
      main is called.
      
      a few other minor changes are included, like eliminating per-thread
      ssp canaries (they were likely broken when combined with certain
      dlopen usages, and completely unnecessary) and some other unnecessary
      checks. since this code gets linked into every program, it should be
      as small and simple as possible.

      support for TLS in dynamic-loaded (dlopen) modules · dcd60371
      Rich Felker 提交于
      unlike other implementations, this one reserves memory for new TLS in
      all pre-existing threads at dlopen-time, and dlopen will fail with no
      resources consumed and no new libraries loaded if memory is not
      available. memory is not immediately distributed to running threads;
      that would be too complex and too costly. instead, assurances are made
      that threads needing the new TLS can obtain it in an async-signal-safe
      way from a buffer belonging to the dynamic linker/new module (via
      atomic fetch-and-add based allocator).
      
      I've re-appropriated the lock that was previously used for __synccall
      (synchronizing set*id() syscalls between threads) as a general
      pthread_create lock. it's a "backwards" rwlock where the "read"
      operation is safe atomic modification of the live thread count, which
      multiple threads can perform at the same time, and the "write"
      operation is making sure the count does not increase during an
      operation that depends on it remaining bounded (__synccall or dlopen).
      in static-linked programs that don't use __synccall, this lock is a
      no-op and has no cost.

      partial TLS support for dynamic-linked programs · bc6a35fb
      Rich Felker 提交于
      only TLS in the main program is supported so far; TLS defined in
      shared libraries will not work yet.

      TLS (GNU/C11 thread-local storage) support for static-linked programs · 8431d797
      Rich Felker 提交于
      the design for TLS in dynamic-linked programs is mostly complete too,
      but I have not yet implemented it. cost is nonzero but still low for
      programs which do not use TLS and/or do not use threads (a few hundred
      bytes of new code, plus dependency on memcpy). i believe it can be
      made smaller at some point by merging __init_tls and __init_security
      into __libc_start_main and avoiding duplicate auxv-parsing code.
      
      at the same time, I've also slightly changed the logic pthread_create
      uses to allocate guard pages to ensure that guard pages are not
      counted towards commit charge.

      overhaul SSP support to use a real canary · 58aa5f45
      Rich Felker 提交于
      pthread structure has been adjusted to match the glibc/GCC abi for
      where the canary is stored on i386 and x86_64. it will need variants
      for other archs to provide the added security of the canary's entropy,
      but even without that it still works as well as the old "minimal" ssp
      support. eventually such changes will be made anyway, since they are
      also needed for GCC/C11 thread-local storage support (not yet
      implemented).
      
      care is taken not to attempt initializing the thread pointer unless
      the program actually uses SSP (by reference to __stack_chk_fail).

      first attempt at enabling stack protector support · 60872cf9
      Rich Felker 提交于
      the code is written to pre-init the thread pointer in static linked
      programs that pull in __stack_chk_fail or dynamic-linked programs that
      lookup the symbol. no explicit canary is set; the canary will be
      whatever happens to be in the thread structure at the offset gcc
      hard-coded. this can be improved later.

      security hardening: ensure suid programs have valid stdin/out/err · df0b5a49
      Rich Felker 提交于
      this behavior (opening fds 0-2 for a suid program) is explicitly
      allowed (but not required) by POSIX to protect badly-written suid
      programs from clobbering files they later open.
      
      this commit does add some cost in startup code, but the availability
      of auxv and the security flag will be useful elsewhere in the future.
      in particular auxv is needed for static-linked vdso support, which is
      still waiting to be committed (sorry nik!)

      thanks to mikachu
      
      per POSIX:
      
      The setenv() function shall fail if:
      
      [EINVAL] The name argument is a null pointer, points to an empty
      string, or points to a string containing an '=' character.
