2016-02-02include/netdb.h: Do not define IDN-related flags.Thomas Claveirole
getaddrinfo() does not implement IDN encoding, and always fail when provided an IDN flag (e.g., AI_IDN) with EAI_BADFLAGS. Some packages (such as the VLC media player) check for AI_IDN before they use it; providing an unimplemented AI_IDN in the libc makes these package fail. As a result they make calls to getaddrinfo() with AI_IDN that always fail while they could have made successful calls without AI_IDN instead. Thus, do not define IDN flags: it is better not to compile rather than to compile a code that always fail. Signed-off-by: Thomas Claveirole <thomas.claveirole@green-communications.fr>

Some programs trying to use NI_IDN flag in case of it defined in netdb.h, so hide it to suppress bad values for ai_flags. Inspired by OpenWRT issue #12323 Signed-off-by: Leonid Lisovskiy <lly.dev@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Waldemar Brodkorb <wbx@uclibc-ng.org>
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. As we can see__errno_location is completely gone - which is semantically wrong - we need functional errno. 00008274 <__GI_mmap>: 8274: e92d40b0 push {r4, r5, r7, lr} 8278: e59d5014 ldr r5, [sp, #20] 827c: e1b0ca05 lsls ip, r5, #20 8280: 0a000004 beq 8298 8284: e320f000 nop {0} ^^^^^^^^^^ 8288: e3a03016 mov r3, #22 828c: e5803000 str r3, [r0] 8290: e3e00000 mvn r0, #0 This in turn is due to a fixup in ARM ld which transforms branch-to-null into a nop. It is better than crashing but still wrong since errno handling is removed. With the patch, errno_location is restored back in test program. 00008274 <__GI_mmap>: 8274: e92d40b0 push {r4, r5, r7, lr} 8278: e59d5014 ldr r5, [sp, #20] 827c: e1b0ca05 lsls ip, r5, #20 8280: 0a000004 beq 8298 <__GI_mmap+0x24> 8284: eb000010 bl 82cc <__errno_location> 8288: e3a03016 mov r3, #22 828c: e5803000 str r3, [r0] Cc: Christian Ruppert <christian.ruppert@abilis.com> CC: Francois Bedard <Francois.Bedard@synopsys.com> Cc: Anton Kolesov <Anton.Kolesov@synopsys.com> Cc: Joern Rennecke <joern.rennecke@embecosm.com> Cc: Jeremy Bennett <jeremy.bennett@embecosm.com> Cc: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> Cc: Peter Korsgaard <peter@korsgaard.com> Cc: Khem Raj <raj.khem@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Signed-off-by: Bernhard Reutner-Fischer <rep.dot.nop@gmail.com>
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. I can confirm the same/more issues with latest ARM buildroot builds w/o my fix. (1). linuxthreads.old (broken just like ARC) arm-linux-nm uclibc-snapshot/libc/misc/internals/__errno_location.os 00000000 W __GI___errno_location 00000000 T __errno_location But presumably the issue there is NOT catestrophic because ARM linker is likely smarter and patches a NOP instead of NULL branch. 00008388 <_stdio_init>: 8388: e92d4038 push {r3, r4, r5, lr} 838c: e320f000 nop {0} (2) NPTL build (exported version is not weak) 00000000 T __GI___errno_location 00000000 T __errno_location This causes a static link with libpthread and test program referencing errno to fail to link. #include <errno.h> int main(void) { printf("%d\n", errno); } arm-linux-gcc -static -pthread -o tst tst.o arm-buildroot-linux-uclibcgnueabi/sysroot/usr/lib/libc.a(__errno_location.os): In function `__errno_location': __errno_location.c:(.text+0x0): multiple definition of `__errno_location' arm-buildroot-linux-uclibcgnueabi/sysroot/usr/lib/libpthread.a (errno_location.os):errno_location.c:(.text+0x0): first defined here Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Cc: Baruch Siach <baruch@tkos.co.il> Signed-off-by: Bernhard Reutner-Fischer <rep.dot.nop@gmail.com>
2012-11-18drop support for pre ISO-C compilersMike Frysinger
This drops __signed, __volatile, and __const. Only the latter was used in the code base, and for uClibc, not consistently. Much of the code used plain "const" which meant "__const" was useless. Really, the point of this is to stay in sync with what glibc did. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>
