these are not a public interface and are not intended to be callable from anywhere but the public clone function or other places in libc.

it's already included in all places where these are needed, and aside from __tls_get_addr, they're all implementation internals.

despite looking like undefined behavior, the affected code is correct both before and after this patch. the pairs mtx_t and pthread_mutex_t, and cnd_t and pthread_cond_t, are not mutually compatible within a single translation unit (because they are distinct untagged aggregate instances), but they are compatible with an object of either type from another translation unit (6.2.7 ¶1), and therefore a given translation unit can choose which one it wants to use. in the interest of being able to move declarations out of source files to headers that facilitate checking, use the pthread type names in declaring the namespace-safe versions of the pthread functions and cast the argument pointer types when calling them.

these exist for the sake of defining the corresponding weak public aliases (for C11 and POSIX namespace conformance reasons). they are not referenced by anything else in libc, so make them static.

policy is that all public functions which have a public declaration should be defined in a context where that public declaration is visible, to avoid preventable type mismatches. an audit performed using GCC's -Wmissing-declarations turned up the violations corrected here. in some cases the public header had not been included; in others, a feature test macro needed to make the declaration visible had been omitted. in the case of gethostent and getnetent, the omission seems to have been intentional, as a hack to admit a single stub definition for both functions. this kind of hack is no longer acceptable; it's UB and would not fly with LTO or advanced toolchains. the hack is undone to make exposure of the declarations possible.

this cleans up what had become widespread direct inline use of "GNU C" style attributes directly in the source, and lowers the barrier to increased use of hidden visibility, which will be useful to recovering some of the efficiency lost when the protected visibility hack was dropped in commit dc2f368e, especially on archs where the PLT ABI is costly.

if __cp_cancel was reached via __syscall_cp, r12 will necessarily still contain a GOT pointer (for libc.so or for the static-linked main program) valid for entering __cancel. however, in the case of async cancellation, r12 may contain any scratch value; it's not necessarily even a valid GOT pointer for the code that was interrupted. unlike in commit 0ec49dab where the corresponding issue was fixed for powerpc64, there is fundamentally no way for fdpic code to recompute its GOT pointer. so a new mechanism is introduced for cancel_handler to write a GOT register value into the interrupted context on archs where it is needed.
-
由 Rich Felker 提交于
entering the local entry point for __cancel from __cp_cancel is valid if __cp_cancel was reached from __syscall_cp, since both are in libc and share the same TOC pointer, but it is not valid if __cp_cancel was reached when cancel_handler rewrote the program counter for asynchronous cancellation of code outside libc. to ensure __cancel is entered with a valid TOC pointer, recompute the correct value in a PC-relative manner before jumping.

__aeabi_read_tp used to call c code, but that was incorrect as the arm runtime abi specifies special pcs for this function: it is only allowed to clobber r0, ip, lr and cpsr. maintainer's note: the old code explicitly saved and restored all general-purpose registers which are call-clobbered in the normal calling convention, so it's unlikely that any real-world compilers produced code that could break. however theoretically they could have chosen to use floating point registers, in which case the caller's values of those registers would be clobbered.

with async cancellation enabled, pthread_cancel(pthread_self()) deadlocked due to pthread_kill holding killlock which is needed by pthread_exit. this could be solved by making pthread_kill block signals around the critical section, at least when the target thread is itself, but the issue only arises for cancellation, and otherwise would just be imposing unnecessary cost. instead just have pthread_cancel explicitly check for async self-cancellation and call pthread_exit(PTHREAD_CANCELED) directly rather than going through the signal machinery.

commit 610c5a85 changed the thread pointer setup so tp points at the end of the pthread struct on arm, but failed to update __aeabi_read_tp so it was off by 8. this broke tls access in code that is compiled with -mtp=soft, which is the default when target arch is pre armv6k or thumb1. maintainer's note: no release versions are affected.

due to moved code, commit b8742f32 inadvertently used the return value of __clone, rather than the return value of SYS_sched_setscheduler in the new thread, to check whether it needed to report failure. since a successful __clone returns the tid of the new thread, which is never zero, this caused pthread_create always to return with an invalid error number in the code path for PTHREAD_EXPLICIT_SCHED. this regression was not present in any releases.

this fixes a major gap in the intended functionality of pthread_setattr_default_np. if application/library code creating a thread does not pass a null attribute pointer to pthread_create, but sets up an attribute object to change other properties while leaving the stack alone, the created thread will get a stack with size DEFAULT_STACK_SIZE. this makes pthread_setattr_default_np useless for working around stack overflow issues in such applications, and leaves a major risk of regression if previously-working code switches from using a null attribute pointer to an attribute object. this change aligns the behavior more closely with the glibc pthread_setattr_default_np functionality too, albeit via a different mechanism. glibc encodes "default" specially in the attribute object and reads the actual default at thread creation time. with this commit, we now copy the current default into the attribute object at pthread_attr_init time, so that applications that query the properties of the attribute object will see the right values.

three ABIs are supported: the default with 68881 80-bit fpu format and results returned in floating point registers, softfloat-only with the same format, and coldfire fpu with IEEE single/double only. only the first is tested at all, and only under qemu which has fpu emulation bugs. basic functionality smoke tests have been performed for the most common arch-specific breakage via libc-test and qemu user-level emulation. some sysvipc failures remain, but are shared with other big endian archs and will be fixed separately.

the wrapper start function that performs scheduling operations is unreachable if pthread_attr_setinheritsched is never called, so move it there rather than the pthread_create source file, saving some code size for static-linked programs.
-
由 Rich Felker 提交于
eliminate the awkward startlock mechanism and corresponding fields of the pthread structure that were only used at startup. instead of having pthread_create perform the scheduling operations and having the new thread wait for them to be completed, start the new thread with a wrapper start function that performs its own scheduling, sending the result code back via a futex. this way the new thread can use storage from the calling thread's stack rather than permanent fields in the pthread structure.

previously, some accesses to the detached state (from pthread_join and pthread_getattr_np) were unsynchronized; they were harmless in programs with well-defined behavior, but ugly. other accesses (in pthread_exit and pthread_detach) were synchronized by a poorly named "exitlock", with an ad-hoc trylock operation on it open-coded in pthread_detach, whose only purpose was establishing protocol for which thread is responsible for deallocation of detached-thread resources. instead, use an atomic detach_state and unify it with the futex used to wait for thread exit. this eliminates 2 members from the pthread structure, gets rid of the hackish lock usage, and makes rigorous the trap added in commit 80bf5952 for catching attempts to join detached threads. it should also make attempt to detach an already-detached thread reliably trap.

if the last thread exited via pthread_exit, the logic that marked it dead did not account for the possibility of it targeting itself via atexit handlers. for example, an atexit handler calling pthread_kill(pthread_self(), SIGKILL) would return success (previously, ESRCH) rather than causing termination via the signal. move the release of killlock after the determination is made whether the exiting thread is the last thread. in the case where it's not, move the release all the way to the end of the function. this way we can clear the tid rather than spending storage on a dedicated dead-flag. clearing the tid is also preferable in that it hardens against inadvertent use of the value after the thread has terminated but before it is joined.
-
由 Rich Felker 提交于
posix documents in the rationale and future directions for pthread_kill that, since the lifetime of the thread id for a joinable thread lasts until it is joined, ESRCH is not a correct error for pthread_kill to produce when the target thread has exited but not yet been joined, and that conforming applications cannot attempt to detect this state. future versions of the standard may explicitly require that ESRCH not be returned for this case.

the tid field in the pthread structure is not volatile, and really shouldn't be, so as not to limit the compiler's ability to reorder, merge, or split loads in code paths that may be relevant to performance (like controlling lock ownership). however, use of objects which are not volatile or atomic with futex wait is inherently broken, since the compiler is free to transform a single load into multiple loads, thereby using a different value for the controlling expression of the loop and the value passed to the futex syscall, leading the syscall to block instead of returning. reportedly glibc's pthread_join was actually affected by an equivalent issue in glibc on s390. add a separate, dedicated join_futex object for pthread_join to use.

A variant of this new lock algorithm has been presented at SAC'16, see https://hal.inria.fr/hal-01304108. A full version of that paper is available at https://hal.inria.fr/hal-01236734. The main motivation of this is to improve on the safety of the basic lock implementation in musl. This is achieved by squeezing a lock flag and a congestion count (= threads inside the critical section) into a single int. Thereby an unlock operation does exactly one memory transfer (a_fetch_add) and never touches the value again, but still detects if a waiter has to be woken up. This is a fix of a use-after-free bug in pthread_detach that had temporarily been patched. Therefore this patch also reverts c1e27367 This is also the only place where internal knowledge of the lock algorithm is used. The main price for the improved safety is a little bit larger code. Under high congestion, the scheduling behavior will be different compared to the previous algorithm. In that case, a successful put-to-sleep may appear out of order compared to the arrival in the critical section.

calling __unlock on t->exitlock is not valid because __unlock reads the waiters count after making the atomic store that could allow pthread_exit to continue and unmap the thread's stack and the object t points to. for now, inline the __unlock logic with an unconditional futex wake operation so that the waiters count is not needed. once __lock/__unlock have been made safe for self-synchronized destruction, we could switch back to using them.

if the parent thread was able to set the new thread's priority before it reached the check for 'startlock', the new thread failed to restore its signal mask and thus ran with all signals blocked. concept for patch by Sergei, who reported the issue; unnecessary changes were removed and comments added since the whole 'startlock' thing is non-idiomatic and confusing. eventually it should be replaced with use of idiomatic synchronization primitives.

passing to pthread_join the id of a thread which is not joinable results in undefined behavior. in principle the check to trap does not necessarily work if pthread_detach was called after thread creation, since no effort is made here to synchronize access to t->detached, but the check is well-defined and harmless for callers which did not invoke UB, and likely to help catch erroneous code that would otherwise mysteriously hang. patch by William Pitcock.

binutils commit bada43421274615d0d5f629a61a60b7daa71bc15 tightened immediate fixup handling in gas in such a way that the final .arch of an object file must be compatible with the fixups used when the instruction was assembled; this in turn broke assembling of atomics.s, at least in thumb mode. it's not clear whether this should be considered a bug in gas, but .object_arch is preferable anyway for our purpose here of controlling the ISA level tag on the object file being produced, and it's the intended directive for use in object files with runtime code selection. research by Szabolcs Nagy confirmed that .object_arch is supported in all relevant versions of binutils and clang's integrated assembler. patch by Reiner Herrmann.

three problems are addressed: - use of pc arithmetic, which was difficult if not impossible to make correct in thumb mode on all models, so that relative rather than absolute pointers to the backends could be used. this was designed back when there was no coherent model for the early stages of the dynamic linker before relocations, and is no longer necessary. - assumption that data (the relative pointers to the backends) can be accessed at a constant displacement from the code. this will not be possible on future fdpic subarchs (for cortex-m), so move responsibility for loading the backend code address to the caller. - hard-coded arm opcodes using the .word directive. instead, use the .arch directive to work around the assembler's refusal to assemble instructions not available (or in some cases, available but just considered deprecated) in the target isa level. the obscure v6t2 arch is used for v6 code so as to (1) allow generation of thumb2 output if -mthumb is active, and (2) avoid warnings/errors for mcr barriers that clang would produce if we just set arch to v7-a. in addition, the __aeabi_read_tp function is moved out of the inner workings and implemented as an asm wrapper around a C function, so that asm code does not need to read global data. the asm wrapper serves to satisfy the ABI calling convention requirements for this function.
