Since e19d702b8e, dlsym and friends use recursive mutexes that
require the current thread id, which is not available before the libc
constructor. This prevents us from using dlsym() in .preinit_array.
This change moves TLS initialization from libc constructor to the earliest
possible point - immediately after linker itself is relocated. As a result,
pthread_internal_t for the initial thread is available from the start.
As a bonus, values stored in TLS in .preinit_array are not lost when libc is
initialized.

The END macro was put too far down which made the linker complain about
it. Move up to the end of the code.

Marking segments read-only was pushing the alignment of __on_dlclose by
2 bytes making it unaligned. This change makes sure the ARM code is
aligned to the 4 byte boundary.
Bug: 6313309
Change-Id: Ic2bf475e120dd61225ec19e5d8a9a8b1d0b7f081
This change fixes a segmentation fault in the libc unwinder when it goes
past __libc_init.
Unwind instructions for __libc_init direct it to grab the return address from
the stack frame. Without this change, the unwinder gets a wild address and
looks up further unwind instructions for the routine at that address. If it's
unlucky enough to hit an existing function, it will try to unwind it. Bad
things happen then.
With this change, the return address always points to the _start function,
which does not have unwind instructions associated with it. This stop the
unwind process.
__libc_init never returns, so this does not affect program execution, other
than adding 4 bytes on the main thread stack.

From the release notes:
africa
Summer time changes for Morocco (to start late April 2012)
asia
Changes for 2012 for Gaza & the West Bank (Hebron) and Syria
northamerica
Haiti following US/Canada rules for 2012 (and we're assuming,
for now anyway, for the future).
Also include a change made internally to the 'generate' script as part of
the tzdata2011m update that apparently never made it to AOSP; the original
checkin comment for which was:
Update to tzdata2011m.
Fixes for Europe/Tiraspol (Moldova) and all four Ukrainian zones.
Also show the MD5 of the downloaded data, for comparison against the MD5
given in the announcement mails. (There's a plan to move to proper signing,
but that's not implemented on their end yet.)
(I'm repeating the tzdata change for the convenience of anyone grepping the
log, since the 2012 tzdata releases also contain the 2011m changes; 2011m
is the only missing release I noticed.)

Root cause:
The atfork uses the mutex handler_mutex to protect the atfork_head. The
parent will call __bionic_atfork_run_prepare() to lock the handler_mutex,
and need both the parent and child to unlock their own copy of handler_mutex
after fork. At that time, the owner of hanlder_mutex is set as the parent.
If we apply the kernel_id fix, then the child's kernel_id will be set as
child's tid.
The handler_mutex is a recursive lock, and pthread_mutex_unlock(&hander_mutex)
will fail because the mutex owner is the parent, while the current tid
(__get_thread()->kernel_id) is child, not matched with the mutex owner.
At that time, the handler_mutex is left in lock state.If the child wants to
fork other process after than, then it will try to lock handler_mutex, and
then be deadlocked.
Fix:
Since the child has its own copy of vm space from the the parent, the
child space's handler_mutex should be reset to the initialized state.

Change-Id: Ic8072f366a877443a60fe215f3c00b3df5a259c8
This patch fixes an issue where 64-bit hreaders are incorrectly included
in kernel headers. For example, file "libc/kernel/arch-x86/asm/io.h"
incorreclty includes "io_64.h" (missing, BTW) instead of "io_32.h".
The reason is because CONFIG_X86_32 isn't considered pre-defined in
"kernel_default_arch_macros" for x86, and clean_header.py doesn't
look at it at all anyway (ie. __i386__ is also ignored, but it's
okay since x86 cross compiler defines it back)
Fixed 2 tools/*py, README.TXT, and refreshed libc/kernel headers
Change-Id: Iac834cc8b3548f055d3f2a214af36072dd679fe8
Currently Renderscript sample code RsBalls crashed on x86 when SSE2
enabled. The root cause is that the stack was not 16-byte aligned
from the beginning when the processes/threads were created, so the
RsBalls crashed when SSE2 instructions tried to access the variables
on the stack.
- For the thread created by fork():
Its stack alignment is determined by crtbegin_{dynamic, static}.S
- For the thread created by pthread_create():
Its stack alignment is determined by clone.S. __thread_entry( ) is
a standard C function. In order to have its stack be aligned with
16 byte properly, __thread_entry() needs the stack with following
layout when it is called:
layout #1 (correct)
--------------
| |
-------------- <--ESP (ECX - 20)
| ret EIP |
-------------- <--ECX - 16
| arg0 |
-------------- <--ECX - 12
| arg1 |
-------------- <--ECX - 8
| arg2 |
-------------- <--ECX - 4
| unused |
-------------- <--ECX (16-byte boundary)
But it has following layout for now:
layout #2: (incorrect)
--------------
| |
-------------- <--ESP (ECX - 16)
| unused |
-------------- <--ECX - 12
| arg0 |
-------------- <--ECX - 8
| arg1 |
-------------- <--ECX - 4
| arg2 |
-------------- <--ECX (16-byte boundary)
Fixed in this patch.

Upgrade fnmatch.c from OpenBSD version 1.13 to 1.16.
This is needed primarily to address CVE-2011-0419.
This is a straight copy from upstream's version at
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/lib/libc/gen/fnmatch.c and
incorporates the following changes:
Revision 1.16:
New fnmatch(3) implementation which is not recursive.
Written and provided under BSD licence by William A. Rowe Jr.
Originally released in Apache APR-1.4.5.
Merged class matching code from r1.14 and PATH_MAX check from r1.15.
ok miod millert
Revision 1.15:
Put a limit on recursion during matching, and reject input of size greater
or equal PATH_MAX. Based on similar fix made in NetBSD.
ok miod@ millert@
Revision 1.14:
POSIX character class support for fnmatch(3) and glob(3). OK deraadt@
Version 1.14 introduced charclasses.h, which we copy unmodified
from upstream version 1.1.
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/lib/libc/gen/charclass.h
Bug: 3435120
Change-Id: I45133468f0c3d439fd10eb087a1c647799f9d25b
cdefs.h: Introduce the __purefunc attribute, which allows us to mark
certain functions as being "pure".
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Function-Attributes.html
Many functions have no effects except the return value and their
return value depends only on the parameters and/or global variables.
Such a function can be subject to common subexpression elimination
and loop optimization just as an arithmetic operator would be.
string.h: Mark many commently used string functions as "pure", to
allow for additional compiler optimizations.

After forking, the kernel_id field in the phtread_internal_t returned by pthread_self()
is incorrect --- it's the tid from the parent, not the new tid of the
child.
The root cause is that: currently the kernel_id is set by
_init_thread(), which is called in 2 cases:
(1) called by __libc_init_common(). That happens when the execv( ) is
called after fork( ). But when the zygote tries to fork the android
application, the child application doesn't call execv( ), instread, it
tries to call the Java main method directly.
(2) called by pthread_create(). That happens when a new thread is
created.
For the lead thread which is the thread created by fork(), it should
call execv() but it doesn't, as described in (1) above. So its kernel_id
will inherit the parent's kernel_id.
Fixed it in this patch.

This patch defines a few new macros that can be used to control the
visibility of symbols exported by the C library:
- ENTRY_PRIVATE() can be used in assembly sources to indicate
that an assembler function should have "hidden" visibility, i.e.
will never be exported by the C library's shared library.
This is the equivalent of using __LIBC_HIDDEN__ for a C function,
but ENTRY_PRIVATE() works like ENTRY(), and must be used with
END() to tag the end of the function.
- __LIBC_ABI_PUBLIC__ can be used to tag a C functions as being
part of the C library's public ABI. This is important for a
few functions that must be exposed by the NDK to maintain
binary compatibility.
Once a symbol has been tagged with this macro, it shall
*never* be removed from the library, even if it becomes
directly unused due to implementation changes
(e.g. __is_threaded).
- __LIBC_ABI_PRIVATE__ can be used for C functions that should
always be exported by the C library because they are used by
other libraries in the platform, but should not be exposed
by the NDK. It is possible to remove such symbols from the
implementation if all callers are also modified.

The x86 asm headers define __u64 regardless of __STRICT_ANSI__.
The linux/videodev2.h header requires __u64 to be defined, thus
this fixes compiling with -std=c99 when including the
linux/videodev2.h header.
In glibc, the asm/types.h header defines __u64 regardless of
__STRICT_ANSI__.
This is the change for the generated arch-arm/asm/types.h
header, as produced by the update_all.py script (without all
the other unrelated changes that the script produces).
FWIW, the same issue also is present in
arch-sh/asm/types.h, but there are no source headers for
arch-sh in external/kernel-headers (and regenerating the
headers simply removes that file).

This fixes a bug that was introduced in the latest pthread optimization.
It happens when a recursive lock is contented by several threads. The main
issue was that the atomic counter increment in _recursive_increment() could
be annihilated by a non-conditional write in pthread_mutex_lock() used to
update the value's lower bits to indicate contention.
This patch re-introduces the use of the global recursive lock in
_recursive_increment(). This will hit performance, but a future patch
will be provided to remove it from the source code.

There are three changes of note - most urgently, Cuba (America/Havana)
has extended summer time by two weeks, now to end on Nov 13, rather than
the (already past) Oct 30. Second, the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic
(Europe/Tiraspol) decided not to split from the rest of Moldova after
all, and consequently that zone has been removed (again) and reinstated
in the "backward" file as a link to Europe/Chisinau. And third, the
end date for Fiji's summer time this summer was moved forward from the
earlier planned Feb 26, to Jan 22.
Apart from that, Moldova (MD) returns to a single entry in zone.tab
(and the incorrect syntax that was in the 2011m version of that file
is so fixed - it would have been fixed in a different way had this
change not happened - that's the "missing" sccs version id).

This patch is the first in a series that aims at cleaning up the
public C library headers (which end up being distributed with the NDK).
<resolv.h> and <time.h> contain declarations that should not be public.
They are used by other parts of the platform, but NDK applications should
not use or rely on them.
So copy them to private <bionic_time.h> and <resolv_iface.h> headers
and use a guard macro to avoid conflicts when both headers are included
at the same time.
The idea is that we're going to fix the other platform modules to
include these private headers. After this is done, we will remove the
duplicate definitions from <resolv.h> and <time.h>

This patch provides several small optimizations to the
implementation of mutex locking and unlocking. Note that
a following patch will get rid of the global recursion
lock, and provide a few more aggressive changes, I
though it'd be simpler to split this change in two parts.
+ New behaviour: pthread_mutex_lock et al now detect
recursive mutex overflows and will return EAGAIN in
this case, as suggested by POSIX. Before, the counter
would just wrap to 0.
- Remove un-necessary reloads of the mutex value from memory
by storing it in a local variable (mvalue)
- Remove un-necessary reload of the mutex value by passing
the 'shared' local variable to _normal_lock / _normal_unlock
- Remove un-necessary reload of the mutex value by using a
new macro (MUTEX_VALUE_OWNER()) to compare the thread id
for recursive/errorcheck mutexes
- Use a common inlined function to increment the counter
of a recursive mutex. Also do not use the global
recursion lock in this case to speed it up.

This patch changes the implementation of pthread_once()

When forking of a new process in bionic, it is critical that it
does not allocate any memory according to the comment in
java_lang_ProcessManager.c:
"Note: We cannot malloc() or free() after this point!
A no-longer-running thread may be holding on to the heap lock, and
an attempt to malloc() or free() would result in deadlock."
However, as fork is using standard lib calls when tracing it a bit,
they might allocate memory, and thus causing the deadlock.
This is a rewrite so that the function cpuacct_add, that fork calls,
will use system calls instead of standard lib calls.

(1) in pthread_create:
If the one signal is received before esp is subtracted by 16 and
__thread_entry( ) is called, the stack will be cleared by kernel
when it tries to contruct the signal stack frame. That will cause
that __thread_entry will get a wrong tls pointer from the stack
which leads to the segment fault when trying to access tls content.
(2) in pthread_exit
After pthread_exit called system call unmap(), its stack will be
freed. If one signal is received at that time, there is no stack
available for it.

__atomic_cmpxchg and other related atomic operations did not
provide memory barriers, which can be a problem for non-platform
code that links against them when it runs on multi-core devices.
This patch does two things to fix this:
- It modifies the existing implementation of the functions
that are exported by the C library to always provide
full memory barriers. We need to keep them exported by
the C library to prevent breaking existing application
machine code.
- It also modifies <sys/atomics.h> to only export
always-inlined versions of the functions, to ensure that
any application code compiled against the new header will
not rely on the platform version of the functions.
This ensure that said machine code will run properly on
all multi-core devices.
This is based on the GCC built-in sync primitives.
The end result should be only slightly slower than the
previous implementation.
Note that the platform code does not use these functions
at all. A previous patch completely removed their usage in
the pthread and libstdc++ code.
+ rename arch-arm/bionic/atomics_arm.S to futex_arm.S
+ rename arch-x86/bionic/atomics_x86.S to futex_x86.S
+ remove arch-x86/include/sys/atomics.h which already
provided inlined functions to the x86 platform.

We're going to modify the __atomic_xxx implementation to provide
full memory barriers, to avoid problems for NDK machine code that
link to these functions.
First step is to remove their usage from our platform code.
We now use inlined versions of the same functions for a slight
performance boost.
+ remove obsolete atomics_x86.c (was never compiled)
NOTE: This improvement was benchmarked on various devices.
Comparing a pthread mutex lock + atomic increment + unlock
we get:
- ARMv7 emulator, running on a 2.4 GHz Xeon:
before: 396 ns after: 288 ns
- x86 emulator in KVM mode on same machine:
before: 27 ns after: 27 ns

For Honeycomb, we added proper file thread-safety for
all FILE* operations. However, we did implement that by
using an out-of-band hash table to map FILE* pointers
to phtread_mutex_t mutexes, because we couldn't change
the size of 'struct _sFILE' without breaking the ABI.
It turns out that our BSD-derived code already has
some support code to extend FILE* objects, so use it
instead. See libc/stdio/fileext.h
This patch gets rid of the hash table, and put the
mutex directly into the sFILE extension.
Change-Id: If1c3fe0a0a89da49c568e9a7560b7827737ff4d0
The old code didn't work because the kernel expects a 64-bit sigset_t
while the one provided by our ABI is only 32-bit. This is originally
due to the fact that the kernel headers themselves define sigset_t
as a 32-bit type when __KERNEL__ is not defined (apparently to cater
to libc5 or some similarly old C library).
We can't modify the size of sigset_t without breaking the NDK ABI,
so instead perform runtime translation during the call.

vfork() would not save the registers that the parent would expect
to have restored after execl() completed.
Specially that execl() would call execve() underneath, further messing
up the stack of the parent.
To avoid that, we fork() for now. Later we will revisit and cleanup
vfork()+execve() to actually have vfork() store all the register
that the parent expects to see, and not those left by execve().
In the original code, looking at the registers just before the call to
popen(), and after the call showed that r7 would get clobbered.
This would leave the caller with an invalid pointer, leading to all
kinds of data corruptions.
execve() is simpler that execl() in this case.

Our dlmalloc implementation currently calls abort() when it detects
that the heap is corrupted, or that an invalid pointer is passed to
one of its functions.
The only way to detect this is because abort() will force-fully
crash the current program with a magic fault address of '0xdeadbaad'.
However, this is not really well documented, and a frequent topic
on the android-ndk forum (among others).
This change makes our dlmalloc code dump a simple message to the
log just before the abort() call (and hence before the stack trace)
to better help identify the problem.

build at runtime for obscure reasons).
Quote from Linux Programmer's Manual:
"If t is non-NULL, the return value is also stored in the memory
pointed to by t."

Unfortunately, legacy .so files for ARM don't have a correct crtbegin file.
Consequently, we have to grandfather the old __dso_handle behaviour.
Add some ifdefs for ARM to allow it to use the old code until we can work
out a transition.

The spec says "A value in the range between -4095 to -1 indicates an error" (not -129).
This was pointed out in the comment in 22039.

Initial commit for dns cache per interface.
Added a type that holds a reference to a
cache and name of associated interface,
address of interface, name server(s)
associated with an interface etc.
New functions to set default interface,
address of name servers etc.

These functions were already declared in <pwd.h>, but hadn't been implemented
yet.

This change fixes the prctl() declaration to match GLibc, and allow us
to build gcc-4.6 for Android (among other things). Note that this does
not change the source and binary interfaces.

Several updates to Bionic crt*.o files to implement Linux/x86
stack unwind/exception handling.
Mark __dso_handle as hidden.
Note: Requires complete rebuild due to CRT changes. Google will
need to regenerate and check-in all the prebuilt x86 CRT object
files and libraries which link to them.

A suggestion how to make a smarter delete function when the cache
is full. First look through the entire cache and remove all entries
which have expired. If none use the old solution and just remove
the last entry in the MRU list.

NOTE: This is a back-port from the internal HC branch.
This patch fixes a leak that occurs when creating a new
thread-specific DNS resolver state object.
Essentially, each thread that calls gethostbyname() or getaddrinfo()
at least once will leak a small memory block. Another leak happens
anytime these functions are called after a change of the network
settings.
The leak is insignificant and hard to notice on typical programs.
However, netd tends to create one new thread for each DNS request
it processes, and quickly grows in size after a > 20 hours.
The same problem is seen in other system processes that tend to
create one thread per request too.
The leak occured becasue res_ninit() was called twice when creating
a new thread-specific DNS resolver state in _res_get_thread().
This function could not properly reset an existing thread and was
leaking a memory block.
The patch does two things:
- First, it fixes res_ninit() to prevent any leakage when resetting
the state of a given res_state instance.
- Second, it modifies the _res_get_thread() implementation to
make it more explicit, and avoid calling res_ninit() twice
in a row on first-time creation.
