2020-01-30poll: avoid calling select with empty sets which hangs the processYann Sionneau
Avoid calling select with empty sets which hangs the process This makes uClibc-ng act like glibc and musl Without this fix the test_poll of python3 testsuite hangs forever Scenario of the issue: If you call poll with only invalid file descriptors, like in python3 testsuite (https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Lib/test/test_poll.py#L83) You will go through uClibc poll emulation code, which is based on select syscall. Your first call to select will fail, it will return -1 and errno will be set to EBADF: https://github.com/wbx-github/uclibc-ng/blob/master/libc/sysdeps/linux/common/poll.c#L120 Then you will go through the for loop which tests individually each file descriptor by calling select on each one: https://github.com/wbx-github/uclibc-ng/blob/master/libc/sysdeps/linux/common/poll.c#L163 each call will also return -1 with errno being equal to EBADF. Therefore all pollfd will have the POLLNVAL flag in their respective revents field. And, the most important, rset/wset/xset will stay empty. Then the for loop ends, the "continue" makes the while loop run again. The following select() is run again: https://github.com/wbx-github/uclibc-ng/blob/master/libc/sysdeps/linux/common/poll.c#L120 But this time the sets are empty. If the poll was called with timeout set to -1, this select will hang forever because there is no timeout and the sets are empty so no event will ever wake it up. test program: int main(void) { struct pollfd pfd; int ret; int pipe_fds[2]; pipe(pipe_fds); close(pipe_fds[0]); close(pipe_fds[1]); pfd.fd = pipe_fds[0]; pfd.events = POLLIN | POLLOUT | POLLPRI; pfd.revents = 0; ret = poll(&pfd, 1, -1); printf("ret: %d\n", ret); if (ret < 0) printf("error: %s", strerror(errno)); else { puts("revents: "); if (pfd.revents & POLLERR) printf(" POLLERR"); if (pfd.revents & POLLHUP) printf(" POLLHUP"); if (pfd.revents & POLLNVAL) printf(" POLLNVAL"); puts(""); } return 0; } This hangs on uClibc-ng aarch64 and Kalray's arch (kv3) but does the following on musl and glibc: " ret: 1 revents: POLLNVAL " strace output of this program with uClibc *without* the patch applied: pselect6(4, [3], [3], [3], NULL, NULL) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor) pselect6(4, [3], [3], [3], {tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=0}, NULL) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor) pselect6(0, 0x7ffffffb80, 0x7ffffffb68, 0x7ffffffb50, NULL, NULL (never finishes) strace output of this program with uClibc *with* the patch applied: pselect6(4, [3], [3], [3], NULL, NULL) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor) pselect6(4, [3], [3], [3], {tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=0}, NULL) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor) write(1, "ret: 1\n", 7ret: 1 ) = 7 write(1, "revents: \n", 10revents: ) = 10 write(1, " POLLNVAL\n", 10 POLLNVAL ) = 10 exit_group(0) = ? +++ exited with 0 +++

in string.h and strings.h. This caught unguarded string ops in libc/inet/ethers.c __ether_line_w() function. I will wait for fallout reports for a week or so, then continue converting more libc_hidden_proto's.
2007-10-23Poll with zero timeoutJoakim Tjernlund
Jean-Christian de Rivaz writes: The attached patch solve an issue I faced while using the libdbus-glib waiting for a D-Bus message or the end of a glib timer at the same time. This specific case of use generate a poll call with a zero timeout. On platformes with the glibc a zero timeout poll return immetiately even if there is no file descriptor event. But on platformes with uClibc a zero timeout poll block until a file descriptor event occurs.

I actually suspect this code into the file uClibc/libc/sysdeps/linux/common/poll.c: tval.tv_nsec = (timeout % 1000) *1000; <==== make only usec! From milisecond this really needs a * 1000000 to make nanosecond. Without this a 1100 milisecond timeout is converted into a 1 seconde and 100 microsecond timeout! This can explain the weird result of the test code.
2007-02-28add support for ppoll() and emulate poll() with it when __NR_poll does not existMike Frysinger
2006-12-08Take Mike Frysinger's comments into account -- make certain that userEric Andersen
applications stop using _syscall#() and use syscall() instead. Cleanup internal handling of syscall includes to use the correct header file.

2004-03-18Based on a patch from Alexandre Oliva, remove all reference to 'bzero' (whichEric Andersen
is not a SuSv3 symbol). Rather than using __bzero internally per Alexandre's original patch, use memset instead.
2004-02-11Fix bug from the syscall reorganization, detected by python's test_poll.py.Manuel Novoa III
The #ifdef __NR_poll test was failing because it was done before any includes. Hence, the emulation was always being used. NOTE: The emulation fails a couple of tests in test_poll.py!
2004-01-21Move poll to its own file, rather than being only half in its own fileEric Andersen
2003-10-22Per suggestion and patch from Ken Staton, emulates poll usingEric Andersen
select for older 2.0 kernels where poll is missing.
