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>
2012-06-15errno, h_errno: correct them for non-TLSPeter S. Mazinger
Move h_errno related stuff to separate file. Do not hide errno and h_errno for non-TLS, else it keeps being 0. Make __[h_]errno_location weak for non-TLS. Signed-off-by: Peter S. Mazinger <ps.m@gmx.net> Signed-off-by: Bernhard Reutner-Fischer <rep.dot.nop@gmail.com>
2012-06-15errno and *_init cleanupPeter S. Mazinger
Define a common view of __errno_location, __h_errno_location in common header and use that everywhere, __uClibc_main.c is no special. 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. _stdio_init,_stdio_term,_locale_init: make all hidden weak in common header Signed-off-by: Peter S. Mazinger <ps.m@gmx.net> Signed-off-by: Bernhard Reutner-Fischer <rep.dot.nop@gmail.com>
2010-07-06Revert "don't make __errno_location / __h_errno_location hidden"Austin Foxley
This reverts commit 0d6ee549bc86fd330672a79d9a87d2c3825eea67. We need to find a solution that will work in shared and static libraries Signed-off-by: Austin Foxley <austinf@cetoncorp.com>
2010-07-05don't make __errno_location / __h_errno_location hiddenPeter Korsgaard
Closes #2089 (https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=2089) __errno_location / __h_errno_location access has to go through the PLT like malloc/free, so the linuxthread variants gets used instead when compiling with -pthread.
