This reverts commit 3d3572f590.
Reason for revert: TCGETS etc. work to some extent on at least
a subset of architectures, so there is no pressing need to force
applications off them. Removal of the macros breaks building
the sanitizers, impacting both GCC and LLVM.

Undefine TCGETS, TCGETS2, and related ioctl constants in the installed
headers. Extract the correct constants (using the kernel type
definitions) automatically from the UAPI headers. The kernel
constants are available under KERNEL_* names during the glibc build,
computed using assembler constant extraction mechanism.
Alpha may have to use TCGETS instead of TCGETS2 because TCTGETS2
became available in Linux 4.20 only. Introduce ARCH_TCGETS to make
this choice explict.
To support emulation on powerpc, glibc versions of the termios

The <termio.h> interface is absolutely ancient: it was obsoleted by
<termios.h> already in the first version of POSIX (1988) and thus
predates the very first version of Linux. Unfortunately, some constant
macros are used both by <termio.h> and <termios.h>; particularly
problematic is the baud rate constants since the termio interface
*requires* that the baud rate is set via an enumeration as part of
c_cflag.
In preparation of revamping the termios interface to support the
arbitrary baud rate capability that the Linux kernel has supported
since 2008, remove <termio.h> in the hope that no one still uses this
archaic interface.
Note that there is no actual code in glibc to support termio: it is
purely an unabstracted ioctl() interface.

Commit 8f8dd904c4 (“elf:
rtld_multiple_ref is always true”) removed some code that happened
to enable compatibility with programs that do not link against
libc.so. Such programs cannot call dlopen or any dynamic linker
functions (except __tls_get_addr), so this is not really useful.
Still ld.so should not crash with a null-pointer dereference
or undefined symbol reference in these cases.
In the main relocation loop, call _dl_relocate_object unconditionally
because it already checks if the object has been relocated.
If libc.so was loaded, self-relocate ld.so against it and call
__rtld_mutex_init and __rtld_malloc_init_real to activate the full
implementations. Those are available only if libc.so is there,
so skip these initialization steps if libc.so is absent. Without
libc.so, the global scope can be completely empty. This can cause
ld.so self-relocation to fail because if it uses symbol-based
relocations, which is why the second ld.so self-relocation is not
performed if libc.so is missing.
The previous concern regarding GOT updates through self-relocation
no longer applies because function pointers are updated
explicitly through __rtld_mutex_init and __rtld_malloc_init_real,
and not through relocation. However, the second ld.so self-relocation
is still delayed, in case there are other symbols being used.

The commit 'sparc: Use Linux kABI for syscall return'
(86c5d2cf0c) did not take into account
a subtle sparc syscall kABI constraint. For syscalls that might block
indefinitely, on an interrupt (like SIGCONT) the kernel will set the
instruction pointer to just before the syscall:
arch/sparc/kernel/signal_64.c
476 static void do_signal(struct pt_regs *regs, unsigned long orig_i0)
477 {
[...]
525 if (restart_syscall) {
526 switch (regs->u_regs[UREG_I0]) {
527 case ERESTARTNOHAND:
528 case ERESTARTSYS:
529 case ERESTARTNOINTR:
530 /* replay the system call when we are done */
531 regs->u_regs[UREG_I0] = orig_i0;
532 regs->tpc -= 4;
533 regs->tnpc -= 4;
534 pt_regs_clear_syscall(regs);
535 fallthrough;
536 case ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK:
537 regs->u_regs[UREG_G1] = __NR_restart_syscall;
538 regs->tpc -= 4;
539 regs->tnpc -= 4;
540 pt_regs_clear_syscall(regs);
541 }
However, on a SIGCONT it seems that 'g1' register is being clobbered after the
syscall returns. Before 86c5d2cf0c, the 'g1' was always placed jus
before the 'ta' instruction which then reloads the syscall number and restarts
the syscall.
On master, where 'g1' might be placed before 'ta':
$ cat test.c
#include <unistd.h>
int main ()
{
pause ();
}
$ gcc test.c -o test
$ strace -f ./t
[...]
ppoll(NULL, 0, NULL, NULL, 0
On another terminal
$ kill -STOP 2262828
$ strace -f ./t
[...]
--- SIGSTOP {si_signo=SIGSTOP, si_code=SI_USER, si_pid=2521813, si_uid=8289} ---
--- stopped by SIGSTOP ---
And then
$ kill -CONT 2262828
Results in:
--- SIGCONT {si_signo=SIGCONT, si_code=SI_USER, si_pid=2521813, si_uid=8289} ---
restart_syscall(<... resuming interrupted ppoll ...>) = -1 EINTR (Interrupted system call)
Where the expected behaviour would be:
$ strace -f ./t
[...]
ppoll(NULL, 0, NULL, NULL, 0) = ? ERESTARTNOHAND (To be restarted if no handler)
--- SIGSTOP {si_signo=SIGSTOP, si_code=SI_USER, si_pid=2521813, si_uid=8289} ---
--- stopped by SIGSTOP ---
--- SIGCONT {si_signo=SIGCONT, si_code=SI_USER, si_pid=2521813, si_uid=8289} ---
ppoll(NULL, 0, NULL, NULL, 0
Just moving the 'g1' setting near the syscall asm is not suffice,
the compiler might optimize it away (as I saw on cancellation.c by
trying this fix). Instead, I have change the inline asm to put the
'g1' setup in ithe asm block. This would require to change the asm
constraint for INTERNAL_SYSCALL_NCS, since the syscall number is not
constant.

This interface allows to obtain the associated process ID from the

information. Its prototype is:
pid_t pidfd_getpid (int fd)
It returns the associated pid or -1 in case of an error and sets the
errno accordingly. The possible errno values are those from open, read,
and close (used on procps parsing), along with:
- EBADF if the FD is negative, does not have a PID associated, or if
the fdinfo fields contain a value larger than pid_t.
- EREMOTE if the PID is in a separate namespace.
- ESRCH if the process is already terminated.

Returning a pidfd allows a process to keep a race-free handle for a
child process, otherwise, the caller will need to either use pidfd_open
(which still might be subject to TOCTOU) or keep the old racy interface
base on pid_t.
To correct use pifd_spawn, the kernel must support not only returning
the pidfd with clone/clone3 but also waitid (P_PIDFD) (added on Linux
5.4). If kernel does not support the waitid, pidfd return ENOSYS.
It avoids the need to racy workarounds, such as reading the procfs
fdinfo to get the pid to use along with other wait interfaces.
These interfaces are similar to the posix_spawn and posix_spawnp, with
the only difference being it returns a process file descriptor (int)
instead of a process ID (pid_t). Their prototypes are:
int pidfd_spawn (int *restrict pidfd,
const char *restrict file,
const posix_spawn_file_actions_t *restrict facts,
const posix_spawnattr_t *restrict attrp,
char *const argv[restrict],
char *const envp[restrict])
int pidfd_spawnp (int *restrict pidfd,
const char *restrict path,
const posix_spawn_file_actions_t *restrict facts,
const posix_spawnattr_t *restrict attrp,
char *const argv[restrict_arr],
char *const envp[restrict_arr]);
A new symbol is used instead of a posix_spawn extension to avoid
possible issues with language bindings that might track the return
argument lifetime. Although on Linux pid_t and int are interchangeable,
POSIX only states that pid_t should be a signed integer.
Both symbols reuse the posix_spawn posix_spawn_file_actions_t and
posix_spawnattr_t, to void rehash posix_spawn API or add a new one. It
also means that both interfaces support the same attribute and file
actions, and a new flag or file action on posix_spawn is also added
automatically for pidfd_spawn.
Also, using posix_spawn plumbing allows the reusing of most of the
current testing with some changes:
- waitid is used instead of waitpid since it is a more generic
interface.
- tst-posix_spawn-setsid.c is adapted to take into consideration that
the caller can check for session id directly. The test now spawns
itself and writes the session id as a file instead.
- tst-spawn3.c need to know where pidfd_spawn is used so it keeps an
extra file description unused.

While holding lock, __check_pf calls make_request which calls __sendto

lock held by __check_pf won't be released and can cause deadlock when
thread cancellation happens in __sendto or __recvmsg. Add a cancellation
cleanup handler for __check_pf to unlock the lock when cancelled by
another thread. This fixes BZ #20975 and the siege hang issue.

The clone3 flag resets all signal handlers of the child not set to

With POSIX_SPAWN_SETSIGDEF the child will setup the signal for the case
