      fix serious bug in pthread_join · 8fe5fa56
      Rich Felker 提交于
      on spurious wakeups/returns from __timedwait, pthread_join would
      "succeed" and unmap the thread's stack while it was still running. at
      best this would lead to SIGSEGV when the thread resumed execution, but
      in the worst case, the thread would later resume executing on top of
      another new thread's stack mapped at the same address.
      
      spent about 4 hours tracking this bug down, chasing rare
      difficult-to-reproduce stack corruption in a stress test program.
      still no idea *what* caused the spurious wakeups; i suspect it's a
      kernel bug.

      fix pthread_join wait call: thread termination tid futex is not private · eb351a9e
      Rich Felker 提交于
      this seeme to be the bug that prevented enabling of private futex
      support. i'm going to hold off on switching to private futexes until
      after the next release, and until i get a chance to audit all
      wait/wake calls to make sure they're using the correct private
      argument, but with this change it should be safe to enable private
      futex support.

      more fmemopen null termination fixes · d2e061a2
      Rich Felker 提交于
      null termination is only added when current size grows.
      in update modes, null termination is not added if it does not fit
      (i.e. it is not allowed to clobber data).
      
      these rules make very little sense, but that's how it goes..

      Rich Felker 提交于
      read should not be allowed past "current size".
      append mode should write at "current size", not buffer size.
      null termination should not be written except when "current size" grows.

      handle pending cancellation when enabling async cancellation · a7778dae
      Rich Felker 提交于
      this is not strictly required by the standard, but without it, there
      is a race condition where cancellation arriving just before async
      cancellation is enabled might not be acted upon. it is impossible for
      a conforming application to work around this race condition since
      calling pthread_testcancel after setting async cancellation mode is
      not allowed (pthread_testcancel is not specified to be
      async-cancel-safe). thus the implementation should be responsible for
      eliminating the race, from a quality-of-implementation standpoint.

      use new a_crash() asm to optimize double-free handler. · 1c8bead3
      Rich Felker 提交于
      gcc generates extremely bad code (7 byte immediate mov) for the old
      null pointer write approach. it should be generating something like
      "xor %eax,%eax ; mov %al,(%eax)". in any case, using a dedicated
      crashing opcode accomplishes the same thing in one byte.

      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!)

      simplify and improve double-free check · ce7c6341
      Rich Felker 提交于
      a valid mmapped block will have an even (actually aligned) "extra"
      field, whereas a freed chunk on the heap will always have an in-use
      neighbor.
      
      this fixes a potential bug if mmap ever allocated memory below the
      main program/brk (in which case it would be wrongly-detected as a
      double-free by the old code) and allows the double-free check to work
      for donated memory outside of the brk area (or, in the future,
      secondary heap zones if support for their creation is added).

      fix clock() function · ad575982
      Rich Felker 提交于
      it previously was returning the pseudo-monotonic-realtime clock
      returned by times() rather than process cputime. it also violated C
      namespace by pulling in times().
      
      we now use clock_gettime() if available because times() has
      ridiculously bad resolution. still provide a fallback for ancient
      kernels without clock_gettime.

      implement forkall · 4054a135
      Rich Felker 提交于
      this is a "nonstandard" function that was "rejected" by POSIX, but
      nonetheless had its behavior documented in the POSIX rationale for
      fork. it's present on solaris and possibly some other systems, and
      duplicates the whole calling process, not just a single thread. glibc
      does not have this function. it should not be used in programs
      intending to be portable, but may be useful for testing,
      checkpointing, etc. and it's an interesting (and quite small) example
      of the usefulness of the __synccall framework originally written to
      work around deficiencies in linux's setuid syscall.

      pthread and synccall cleanup, new __synccall_wait op · 407d9330
      Rich Felker 提交于
      fix up clone signature to match the actual behavior. the new
      __syncall_wait function allows a __synccall callback to wait for other
      threads to continue without returning, so that it can resume action
      after the caller finishes. this interface could be made significantly
      more general/powerful with minimal effort, but i'll wait to do that
      until it's actually useful for something.
