Make libc symbols hidden in static PIE
Hidden visibility can avoid indirections and RELATIVE relocs in
static PIE libc.
The check should use IS_IN_LIB instead of IS_IN(libc) since all
symbols are defined locally in static PIE and the optimization is
useful in all libraries not just libc. However the test system
links objects from libcrypt.a into dynamic linked test binaries
where hidden visibility does not work. I think mixing static and
shared libc components in the same binary should not be supported
usage, but to be safe only use hidden in libc.a.
On some targets (i386) this optimization cannot be applied because
hidden visibility PIE ifunc functions don't work, so it is gated by
NO_HIDDEN_EXTERN_FUNC_IN_PIE.
From -static-pie linked 'int main(){}' this shaves off 71 relative
relocs on aarch64 and reduces code size by about 2k.

csu: Move static pie self relocation later [BZ #27072]
IFUNC resolvers may depend on tunables and cpu feature setup so
move static pie self relocation after those.
It is hard to guarantee that the ealy startup code does not rely

to handle RELATIVE relocs early and only IRELATIVE relocs later,
but the current relocation processing code cannot do that.
The early startup code up to relocation processing includes
On some targets IRELATIVE processing relies on TLS setup on
others TLS setup relies on IRELATIVE relocs, so the right
position for _dl_relocate_static_pie is target dependent.
For now move self relocation as early as possible on targets
that support static PIE.

Use hidden visibility for early static PIE code
Extern symbol access in position independent code usually involves GOT
indirection which needs RELATIVE reloc in a static linked PIE. (On
some targets this is avoided e.g. because the linker can relax a GOT
access to a pc-relative access, but this is not generally true.) Code
that runs before static PIE self relocation must avoid relying on
dynamic relocations which can be ensured by using hidden visibility.
However we cannot just make all symbols hidden:
On i386, all calls to IFUNC functions must go through PLT and calls to
hidden functions CANNOT go through PLT in PIE since EBX used in PIE PLT
may not be set up for local calls to hidden IFUNC functions.
This patch aims to make symbol references hidden in code that is used
before and by _dl_relocate_static_pie when building a static PIE libc.
Note: for an object that is used in the startup code, its references
and definition may not have consistent visibility: it is only forced
hidden in the startup code.

elf: Avoid RELATIVE relocs in __tunables_init
With static pie linking pointers in the tunables list need
RELATIVE relocs since the absolute address is not known at link
time. We want to avoid relocations so the static pie self
relocation can be done after tunables are initialized.
This is a simple fix that embeds the tunable strings into the
tunable list instead of using pointers. It is possible to have
a more compact representation of tunables with some additional
complexity in the generator and tunable parser logic. Such
optimization will be useful if the list of tunables grows.
There is still an issue that tunables_strdup allocates and the
failure handling code path is sufficiently complex that it can
easily have RELATIVE relocations. It is possible to avoid the
early allocation and only change environment variables in a
setuid exe after relocations are processed. But that is a
bigger change and early failure is fatal anyway so it is not
as critical to fix right away. This is bug 27181.

256 bits are used for each CPUID leaf. Some leaves only contain a few
features. We can add exceptions to such leaves. But it will increase
code sizes and it is harder to provide backward/forward compatibilities
when new features are added to such leaves in the future.
When new leaves are added, _rtld_global_ro offsets will change which
leads to race condition during in-place updates. We may avoid in-place
updates by
1. Rename the old glibc.
2. Install the new glibc.
3. Remove the old glibc.
NB: A function, __x86_get_cpuid_feature_leaf , is used to avoid the copy

The test create a symlink with __eloop_threshold() loops and creates

support_small_stack_thread_attribute). The thread issues a stack
allocations that fill the thread allocated stack minus some slack

I've updated copyright dates in glibc for 2021. This is the patch for
the changes not generated by scripts/update-copyrights and subsequent
build / regeneration of generated files. As well as the usual annual
updates, mainly dates in --version output (minus csu/version.c which
previously had to be handled manually but is now successfully updated
by update-copyrights), there is a small change to the copyright notice
in NEWS which should let NEWS get updated automatically next year.
Please remember to include 2021 in the dates for any new files added
in future (which means updating any existing uncommitted patches you
have that add new files to use the new copyright dates in them).
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 6694 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c
and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this
diagnostic from Savannah:
remote: *** pre-commit check failed ...
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master

aarch64: use PTR_ARG and SIZE_ARG instead of DELOUSE
DELOUSE was added to asm code to make them compatible with non-LP64
ABIs, but it is an unfortunate name and the code was not compatible
with ABIs where pointer and size_t are different. Glibc currently
only supports the LP64 ABI so these macros are not really needed or
tested, but for now the name is changed to be more meaningful instead
of removing them completely.
Some DELOUSE macros were dropped: clone, strlen and strnlen used it
unnecessarily.
The out of tree ILP32 patches are currently not maintained and will
likely need a rework to rebase them on top of the time64 changes.
Introduce a new _FORTIFY_SOURCE level of 3 to enable additional
fortifications that may have a noticeable performance impact, allowing
more fortification coverage at the cost of some performance.
With llvm 9.0 or later, this will replace the use of
__builtin_object_size with __builtin_dynamic_object_size.
__builtin_dynamic_object_size is an LLVM builtin that is similar to
__builtin_object_size. In addition to what __builtin_object_size
does, i.e. replace the builtin call with a constant object size,
__builtin_dynamic_object_size will replace the call site with an
expression that evaluates to the object size, thus expanding its
applicability. In practice, __builtin_dynamic_object_size evaluates
these expressions through malloc/calloc calls that it can associate
with the object being evaluated.
A simple motivating example is below; -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 would miss
this and emit memcpy, but -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 with the help of
__builtin_dynamic_object_size is able to emit __memcpy_chk with the
allocation size expression passed into the function:
If the object was allocated elsewhere that the compiler cannot see, or
if it was allocated in the function with a function that the compiler
does not recognize as an allocator then __builtin_dynamic_object_size
also returns -1.
Further, the expression used to compute object size may be non-trivial
and may potentially incur a noticeable performance impact. These
fortifications are hence enabled at a new _FORTIFY_SOURCE level to
allow developers to make a choice on the tradeoff according to their
environment.
Make the _FORTIFY_SOURCE macro soup in features.h warn about
unsupported fortification levels. For example, it will warn about
_FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 and over with an indication of which level has been
selected.
powerpc: Use scv instruction on clone when available
clone already uses r31 to temporarily save input arguments before doing the
syscall, so we use a different register to read from the TCB. We can also avoid
allocating another stack frame, which is not needed since we can simply extend
the usage of the red zone.

powerpc: Runtime selection between sc and scv for syscalls
Linux kernel v5.9 added support for system calls using the scv
instruction for POWER9 and later. The new codepath provides better
performance (see below) if compared to using sc. For the
foreseeable future, both sc and scv mechanisms will co-exist, so this
patch enables glibc to do a runtime check and use scv when it is
available.
Before issuing the system call to the kernel, we check hwcap2 in the TCB
for PPC_FEATURE2_SCV to see if scv is supported by the kernel. If not,
we fallback to sc and keep the old behavior.
The kernel implements a different error return convention for scv, so
when returning from a system call we need to handle the return value
differently depending on the instruction we used to enter the kernel.
For syscalls implemented in ASM, entry and exit are implemented by
different macros (PSEUDO and PSEUDO_RET, resp.), which may be used in
sequence (e.g. for templated syscalls) or with other instructions in
between (e.g. clone). To avoid accessing the TCB a second time on
PSEUDO_RET to check which instruction we used, the value read from
hwcap2 is cached on a non-volatile register.
This is not needed when using INTERNAL_SYSCALL macro, since entry and
exit are bundled into the same inline asm directive.
The dynamic loader may issue syscalls before the TCB has been setup
so it always uses sc with no extra checks. For the static case, there
is no compile-time way to determine if we are inside startup code,
so we also check the value of the thread pointer before effectively
accessing the TCB. For such situations in which the availability of
scv cannot be determined, sc is always used.
Support for scv in syscalls implemented in their own ASM file (clone and
vfork) will be added later. For now simply use sc as before.
Average performance over 1M calls for each syscall "type":
- stat: C wrapper calling INTERNAL_SYSCALL
- getpid: templated ASM syscall
- syscall: call to gettid using syscall function
Standard:
stat : 1.573445 us / ~3619 cycles
getpid : 0.164986 us / ~379 cycles
syscall : 0.162743 us / ~374 cycles
With scv:
stat : 1.537049 us / ~3535 cycles <~ -84 cycles / -2.32%
getpid : 0.109923 us / ~253 cycles <~ -126 cycles / -33.25%
syscall : 0.116410 us / ~268 cycles <~ -106 cycles / -28.34%
Tested on powerpc, powerpc64, powerpc64le (with and without scv)

With xmknod wrapper functions removed (589260cef8), the mknod functions
are now properly exported, and version is done using symbols versioning
instead of the extra _MKNOD_* argument.
It also allows us to consolidate Linux and Hurd mknod implementation.
