this move eliminates a duplicate "by-hand" symbol lookup loop from the stage-1 code and replaces it with a call to find_sym, which can be used once we're in stage 2. it reduces the size of the stage 1 code, which is helpful because stage 1 will become the crt start file for static-PIE executables, and it will allow stage 3 to access stage 2's automatic storage, which will be important in an upcoming commit.

this fixes a regression on powerpc that was introduced in commit f3ddd173. global data accesses on powerpc seem to be using a translation-unit-local GOT filled via R_PPC_ADDR32 relocations rather than R_PPC_GLOB_DAT. being a non-GOT relocation type, these were not reprocessed after adding the main application and its libraries to the chain, causing libc code not to see copy relocations in the main program, and therefore to use the pre-copy-relocation addresses for global data objects (like environ). the motivation for the dynamic linker only reprocessing GOT/PLT relocation types in stage 3 is that these types always have a zero addend, making them safe to process again even if the storage for the addend has been clobbered. other relocation types which can be used for address constants in initialized data objects may have non-zero addends which will be clobbered during the first pass of relocation processing if they're stored inline (REL form) rather than out-of-line (RELA form). powerpc generally uses only RELA, so this patch is sufficient to fix the regression in practice, but is not fully general, and would not suffice if an alternate toolchain generated REL for powerpc.

commit 637dd2d3 introduced the checks for RTLD_DEFAULT and RTLD_NEXT here, claiming they fixed a regression, but the above conditional block clearly already covered these cases, and removing the checks produces no difference in the generated code.

this fixes truncation of error messages containing long pathnames or symbol names. the dlerror state was previously required by POSIX to be global. the resolution of bug 97 relaxed the requirements to allow thread-safe implementations of dlerror with thread-local state and message buffer.

at the point of call it was declared hidden, but the definition was not hidden. for some toolchains this inconsistency produced textrels without ld-time binding.

the zero initialization is redundant since decode_vec does its own clearing, and it increases the risk that buggy compilers will generate calls to memset. as long as symbols are bound at ld time, such a call will not break anything, but it may be desirable to turn off ld-time binding in the future.

since 1.1.0, musl has nominally required a thread pointer to be setup. most of the remaining code that was checking for its availability was doing so for the sake of being usable by the dynamic linker. as of commit 71f099cb, this is no longer necessary; the thread pointer is now valid before any libc code (outside of dynamic linker bootstrap functions) runs. this commit essentially concludes "phase 3" of the "transition path for removing lazy init of thread pointer" project that began during the 1.1.0 release cycle.

this allows the dynamic linker itself to run with a valid thread pointer, which is a prerequisite for stack protector on archs where the ssp canary is stored in TLS. it will also allow us to remove some remaining runtime checks for whether the thread pointer is valid. as long as the application and its libraries do not require additional size or alignment, this early thread pointer will be kept and reused at runtime. otherwise, a new static TLS block is allocated after library loading has finished and the thread pointer is switched over.
-
由 Rich Felker 提交于
previously, the layout of the static TLS block was perturbed by the size of the dtv; dtv size increasing from 0 to 1 perturbed both TLS arch types, and the TLS-above-TP type's layout was perturbed by the specific number of dtv slots (libraries with TLS). this behavior made it virtually impossible to setup a tentative thread pointer address before loading libraries and keep it unchanged as long as the libraries' TLS size/alignment requirements fit. the new code fixes the location of the dtv and pthread structure at opposite ends of the static TLS block so that they will not move unless size or alignment changes.

this overhaul further reduces the amount of arch-specific code needed by the dynamic linker and removes a number of assumptions, including: - that symbolic function references inside libc are bound at link time via the linker option -Bsymbolic-functions. - that libc functions used by the dynamic linker do not require access to data symbols. - that static/internal function calls and data accesses can be made without performing any relocations, or that arch-specific startup code handled any such relocations needed. removing these assumptions paves the way for allowing libc.so itself to be built with stack protector (among other things), and is achieved by a three-stage bootstrap process: 1. relative relocations are processed with a flat function. 2. symbolic relocations are processed with no external calls/data. 3. main program and dependency libs are processed with a fully-functional libc/ldso. reduction in arch-specific code is achived through the following: - crt_arch.h, used for generating crt1.o, now provides the entry point for the dynamic linker too. - asm is no longer responsible for skipping the beginning of argv[] when ldso is invoked as a command. - the functionality previously provided by __reloc_self for heavily GOT-dependent RISC archs is now the arch-agnostic stage-1. - arch-specific relocation type codes are mapped directly as macros rather than via an inline translation function/switch statement.

when dlopen fails, all partially-loaded libraries need to be unmapped and freed. any of these libraries using an rpath with $ORIGIN expansion may have an allocated string for the expanded rpath; previously, this string was not freed when freeing the library data structures.
-
由 Rich Felker 提交于
this change hardens the dynamic linker against the possibility of loading the wrong library due to inability to expand $ORIGIN in rpath. hard failures such as excessively long paths or absence of /proc (when resolving /proc/self/exe for the main executable's origin) do not stop the path search, but memory allocation failures and any other potentially transient failures do. to implement this change, the meaning of the return value of fixup_rpath function is changed. returning zero no longer indicates that the dso's rpath string pointer is non-null; instead, the caller needs to check. a return value of -1 indicates a failure that should stop further path search.

transient errors during the path search should not allow the search to continue and possibly open the wrong file. this patch eliminates most conditions where that could happen, but there is still a possibility that $ORIGIN-based rpath processing will have an allocation failure, causing the search to skip such a path. fixing this is left as a separate task. a small bug where overly-long path components caused an infinite loop rather than being skipped/ignored is also fixed.

There are two main abi variants for thread local storage layout: (1) TLS is above the thread pointer at a fixed offset and the pthread struct is below that. So the end of the struct is at known offset. (2) the thread pointer points to the pthread struct and TLS starts below it. So the start of the struct is at known (zero) offset. Assembly code for the dynamic TLSDESC callback needs to access the dynamic thread vector (dtv) pointer which is currently at the front of the pthread struct. So in case of (1) the asm code needs to hard code the offset from the end of the struct which can easily break if the struct changes. This commit adds a copy of the dtv at the end of the struct. New members must not be added after dtv_copy, only before it. The size of the struct is increased a bit, but there is opportunity for size optimizations.

a conservative estimate of 4*sizeof(size_t) was used as the minimum alignment for thread-local storage, despite the only requirements being alignment suitable for struct pthread and void* (which struct pthread already contains). additional alignment required by the application or libraries is encoded in their headers and is already applied. over-alignment prevented the builtin_tls array from ever being used in dynamic-linked programs on 64-bit archs, thereby requiring allocation at startup even in programs with no TLS of their own.

the memory model we use internally for atomics permits plain loads of values which may be subject to concurrent modification without requiring that a special load function be used. since a compiler is free to make transformations that alter the number of loads or the way in which loads are performed, the compiler is theoretically free to break this usage. the most obvious concern is with atomic cas constructs: something of the form tmp=*p;a_cas(p,tmp,f(tmp)); could be transformed to a_cas(p,*p,f(*p)); where the latter is intended to show multiple loads of *p whose resulting values might fail to be equal; this would break the atomicity of the whole operation. but even more fundamental breakage is possible. with the changes being made now, objects that may be modified by atomics are modeled as volatile, and the atomic operations performed on them by other threads are modeled as asynchronous stores by hardware which happens to be acting on the request of another thread. such modeling of course does not itself address memory synchronization between cores/cpus, but that aspect was already handled. this all seems less than ideal, but it's the best we can do without mandating a C11 compiler and using the C11 model for atomics. in the case of pthread_once_t, the ABI type of the underlying object is not volatile-qualified. so we are assuming that accessing the object through a volatile-qualified lvalue via casts yields volatile access semantics. the language of the C standard is somewhat unclear on this matter, but this is an assumption the linux kernel also makes, and seems to be the correct interpretation of the standard.

the new DT_RUNPATH semantics for search order are always used, and since binutils had always set both DT_RPATH and DT_RUNPATH when the latter was used, processing only DT_RPATH worked fine. however, recent binutils has stopped generating DT_RPATH when DT_RUNPATH is used, which broke support for this feature completely.

this issue caused the address of functions in shared libraries to resolve to their PLT thunks in the main program rather than their correct addresses. it was observed causing crashes, though the mechanism of the crash was not thoroughly investigated. since the issue is very subtle, it calls for some explanation: on all well-behaved archs, GOT entries that belong to the PLT use a special relocation type, typically called JMP_SLOT, so that the dynamic linker can avoid having the jump destinations for the PLT resolve to PLT thunks themselves (they also provide a definition for the symbol, which must be used whenever the address of the function is taken so that all DSOs see the same address). however, the traditional mips PIC ABI lacked such a JMP_SLOT relocation type, presumably because, due to the way PIC works, the address of the PLT thunk was never needed and could always be ignored. prior to commit adf94c19, the mips version of reloc.h contained a hack that caused all symbol lookups to be treated like JMP_SLOT, inhibiting undefined symbols from ever being used to resolve symbolic relocations. this hack goes all the way back to commit babf8201, when the mips dynamic linker was first made usable. during the recent refactoring to eliminate arch-specific relocation processing (commit adf94c19), this hack was overlooked and no equivalent functionality was provided in the new code. fixing the problem is not as simple as adding back an equivalent hack, since there is now also a "non-PIC ABI" that can be used for the main executable, which actually does use a PLT. the closest thing to official documentation I could find for this ABI is nonpic.txt, attached to Message-ID: 20080701202236.GA1534@caradoc.them.org, which can be found in the gcc mailing list archives and elsewhere. per this document, undefined symbols corresponding to PLT thunks have the STO_MIPS_PLT bit set in the symbol's st_other field. thus, I have added an arch-specific rule for mips, applied at the find_sym level rather than the relocation level, to reject undefined symbols with the STO_MIPS_PLT bit clear. the previous hack of treating all mips relocations as JMP_SLOT-like, rather than rejecting the unwanted symbols in find_sym, probably also caused dlsym to wrongly return PLT thunks in place of the correct address of a function under at least some conditions. this should now be fixed, at least for global-scope symbol lookups.

such separation serves multiple purposes: - by having the common path for __tls_get_addr alone in its own function with a tail call to the slow case, code generation is greatly improved. - by having __tls_get_addr in it own file, it can be replaced on a per-arch basis as needed, for optimization or ABI-specific purposes. - by removing __tls_get_addr from __init_tls.c, a few bytes of code are shaved off of static binaries (which are unlikely to use this function unless the linker messed up).

previously, accesses to dynamic TLS had to check two conditions before being able to use a dtv slot: (1) that the module index was within the bounds of the current dtv size, and (2) that the dynamic tls for the requested module index was already installed in the dtv. this commit changes the installation strategy so that, whenever an attempt is made to access dynamic TLS that's not yet installed in the dtv, the dynamic TLS for all lower-index modules is also installed. thus it provides a new invariant: if a given module index is within the bounds of the current dtv size, we automatically know that its TLS is installed and directly available. the requirement that the second condition (above) be checked is eliminated.

this was one of the main instances of ugly code duplication: all archs use basically the same types of relocations, but roughly equivalent logic was duplicated for each arch to account for the different naming and numbering of relocation types and variation in whether REL or RELA records are used. as an added bonus, both REL and RELA are now supported on all archs, regardless of which is used by the standard toolchain.

this is the first step in an overhaul aimed at greatly simplifying and optimizing everything dealing with thread-local state. previously, the thread pointer was initialized lazily on first access, or at program startup if stack protector was in use, or at certain random places where inconsistent state could be reached if it were not initialized early. while believed to be fully correct, the logic was fragile and non-obvious. in the first phase of the thread pointer overhaul, support is retained (and in some cases improved) for systems/situation where loading the thread pointer fails, e.g. old kernels. some notes on specific changes: - the confusing use of libc.main_thread as an indicator that the thread pointer is initialized is eliminated in favor of an explicit has_thread_pointer predicate. - sigaction no longer needs to ensure that the thread pointer is initialized before installing a signal handler (this was needed to prevent a situation where the signal handler caused the thread pointer to be initialized and the subsequent sigreturn cleared it again) but it still needs to ensure that implementation-internal thread-related signals are not blocked. - pthread tsd initialization for the main thread is deferred in a new manner to minimize bloat in the static-linked __init_tp code. - pthread_setcancelstate no longer needs special handling for the situation before the thread pointer is initialized. it simply fails on systems that cannot support a thread pointer, which are non-conforming anyway. - pthread_cleanup_push/pop now check for missing thread pointer and nop themselves out in this case, so stdio no longer needs to avoid the cancellable path when the thread pointer is not available. a number of cases remain where certain interfaces may crash if the system does not support a thread pointer. at this point, these should be limited to pthread interfaces, and the number of such cases should be fewer than before.
