2024-02-07ld.so: Add support of DT_RELR relocation format.Dmitry Chestnykh
Nowadays modern libcs like Glibc and musl currently support processing of RELATIVE relocations compressed with DT_RELR format. However I have noticed that uClibc-ng doesn't support this feature and if the source will be linked with `-Wl,-z,pack-relative-relos` (bfd) or `-Wl,--pack-dyn-relocs=relr` (lld) then ld.so cannot properly load the produced DSO. This patch is intended to fix this issue and adds applying of DT_RELR relative relocation. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Chestnykh <dm.chestnykh@gmail.com>

2022-09-21static pie: fix building static PDEMax Filippov
When uclibc is built with static PIE support the _dl_load_base variable shared between the libc-tls.c and reloc_static_pie.c creates the dependency that requires linking reloc_static_pie.o into static position-dependent executables resulting in the following build errors: gcc -static test.c -o test ...ld: ...usr/lib/libc.a(reloc_static_pie.os):(.text+0x0): undefined reference to `_DYNAMIC' Move _dl_load_base definition to libc-tls.c to resolve this dependency and fix static PDE build.

2022-09-07Added support for creation of Static Position-Independent Executables (PIE) ↵linted
on mips Updated config to allow compilation of rcrt1.o for mips and modified it's crt1.S to perform relocates in __start. The mips architecture performs relocations differently then most other architectures. reloc_static_pie was rewritten, taking code from dl-startup.c, in order to perfrom the additional relocations. Modifications were made to mips' dl-startup.h to allow for the use of contained macros without including _start definition. Signed-off-by: linted <linted@users.noreply.github.com>

2022-07-26Added support for creation of Static Position-Independent Executables (PIE) ↵linted
on i386, x86_64, and arm. This patch adds the generation of rcrt1.o which is used by gcc when compiling with the --static-pie flag. rcrt1.o differs from crt1.o and Scrt1.o in that it the executable has a dynamic section but no relocations have been performed prior to _start being called. crt1.o assumes there to be no dynamic relocations, and Scrt1.o has all relocations performed prior to execution by lsdo. The new reloc_static_pie function handles parsing the dynamic section, and performing the relocations in a architecture agnostic method. It also sets _dl_load_base which is used when initalizing TLS to ensure loading from the proper location. This allows for easier porting of static-pie support to additional architectures as only modifications to crt1.S to find the load address are required.

2019-04-14Fix TLS allocation and loading in !SHARED caseYann Sionneau
For ARCH where shared lib are not supported: - SHARED is not set (!SHARED is true) - __ARCH_HAS_NO_LDSO__ is set so code inside #if !defined __ARCH_HAS_NO_LDSO__ && !defined SHARED is compiled-out. But without a call do _dl_aux_init(), _dl_phdr stays NULL and __libc_setup_tls won't be able to allocate memory for the in-executable TLS and also won't be able to load the initimage from ELF TLS segment. This results in segfault when doing things like "errno = 0" like in tst-cancel15.c for instance in uClibc-ng testsuite. Signed-off-by: Yann Sionneau <ysionneau@kalray.eu>

2014-04-23weak symbols need to be "defined" weak but "declared" strongVineet Gupta
Patch "LT.old: Make __errno_location/__h_errno_location thread safe" uncovered yet another bug with static linking and errno (hopefully this is last of them all). Currently, __errno_location is declared weak but is defined strong. While this provides with the desired weak semantics in dso, it is subtly broken in static links. Quoting Joern Rennecke (ARC gcc expert): | I think the issue is that you declare the function as weak in the | header file. That is a rare instance where you want the reference | use declaration that differs a bit from the definition. | If the reference uses a weakly declared function, that creates a | weakref, i.e. the linker won't bother to look for this symbol at | all - if it gets linked in for some other reason, fine, | otherwise, it stays zero. So the solution to declare strong, define weak. Supporting data ----------------- orig code: ARM mmap wrapper (LT.old build + my prev patch for errno) _mmap: @ args = 8, pretend = 0, frame = 0 @ frame_needed = 0, uses_anonymous_args = 0 stmfd sp!, {r4, r5, r7, lr} ldr r5, [sp, #20] movs ip, r5, asl #20 beq .L2 bl __errno_location(PLT) mov r3, #22 str r3, [r0, #0] mvn r0, #0 ... ... .weak __errno_location A statically linked hello world program which uses mmap too.

It is better than crashing but still wrong since errno handling is removed.

2014-04-23LT.old: Make __errno_location/__h_errno_location thread safeVineet Gupta
WHY: errno in uClibc is not thread safe HOW: __errno_location and it's sibling __h_errno_location need to be called via PLT - even from within libc. That way when linked with pthread, intra-uClibc callers will also use the thread safe version. This is achieved by removing the GI alias for these functions, ensuring that they get called normally (via PLT) Verified with ARC LT.old and ARM cubieboard2 buildroot (LT.old) NPTL is unaffected by this bug. ------------ History behind this patch --------------------- This is a long standing bug (https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=2089) Others have tried to fix it in past (alteast Peter Korsgaard's patch in 2010), but somehow failed to be merged (or were backed out afterwards). http://lists.uclibc.org/pipermail/uclibc/2010-July/044176.html One of the causes could be side effect of atleast one more bug related to pthreads and static link which has now been fixed. http://lists.uclibc.org/pipermail/uclibc/2013-October/047958.html I have solved this w/o looking at other pacthes but would like to give credit to Peter and others for confirming that it makes sense.

2013-11-06Fix weak/strong attribute of __errno_location and it's __GI aliasVineet Gupta
A simple statically linked hello world program was segfaulting for ARC in linuxthreads.old configuration (although the root casue applies cross-arch for NPTL as well as linuxthreads.old as described) The crash was due to branch to NULL in _stdio_init 0001026c <_stdio_init>: 1026c: push_s blink 1026e: st.a r13,[sp,-8] 10272: bl.d 0 --> supposed call to __errno_location The call was NOT getting patched to libc internal only alias __GI___errno_location, because it was weak while it's exported cousin, __errno_location was strong/normal. arc-linux-uclibc-nm libc/misc/internals/__errno_location.os 00000000 W __GI___errno_location 00000000 T __errno_location This is exactly opposite to what is expected. Quoting Peter S. Mazinger, commit 87936cd013041 "errno and *_init cleanup" | The rule adopted: | for enabled threads we make in libc the __GI_x() variants strong, x() weak | and (should) provide another strong x() in libpthread. | If threads are disabled, even the __GI_x() variants are weak. With the fix, we see the right settings as below 00000000 T __GI___errno_location 00000000 W __errno_location Note that problem won't show up in a static busybox build as it references errno and that seems to elide the issue.

2013-05-13libc: deal with aux vect inside __uClibc_main only if !SHAREDFilippo ARCIDIACONO
It's not safe to use the aux vect inside __uClibc_main if we are running with shared libraries, because it could have been already modified. For example, if some constructor plays with environment variables by using unsetenv, the modifications done into the stack to unset an environment variable, have impacts on the aux vect due to the extra NULL entries added. Due to this, __uClibc_main is not able to detect where the aux vect starts, so all the entries that are used by __uClibc_main (AT_UID, AT_EUID, AT_GID, AT_EGID, AT_PAGESZ and possibly other arch specific) are impacted. Same side effect on the aux vect is caused by the ld.so when running a SUID program with some of the unsecure environment variables set, that will be unset by the ld.so itself. In order to fix this issue, it needs to handle aux vect entries into __uClibc_main only if SHARED is not defined. In SHARED case, libc refers to __dl_secure and _dl_pagesize as initialised by the ld.so where the aux vext is still untouched.
