Neither the <dlfcn.h> entry points, nor lazy symbol resolution, nor
initial shared library load-up, are cancellation points, so ld.so
should exclusively use I/O primitives that are not cancellable. We
currently achieve this by having the cancellation hooks compile as
no-ops when IS_IN(rtld); this patch changes to using exclusively
_nocancel primitives in the source code instead, which makes the
intent clearer and significantly reduces the amount of code compiled
under IS_IN(rtld) as well as IS_IN(libc) -- in particular,
elf/Makefile no longer thinks we require a copy of unwind.c in
rtld-libc.a. (The older mechanism is preserved as a backstop.)
The bulk of the change is splitting up the files that define the
_nocancel I/O functions, so they don't also define the variants that
*are* cancellation points; after which, the existing logic for picking
out the bits of libc that need to be recompiled as part of ld.so Just
Works. I did this for all of the _nocancel functions, not just the
ones used by ld.so, for consistency.
fcntl was a little tricky because it's only a cancellation point for
certain opcodes (F_SETLKW(64), which can block), and the existing
__fcntl_nocancel wasn't applying the FCNTL_ADJUST_CMD hook, which
strikes me as asking for trouble, especially as the only nontrivial
definition of FCNTL_ADJUST_CMD (for powerpc64) changes F_*LK* opcodes.
To fix this, fcntl_common moves to fcntl_nocancel.c along with
__fcntl_nocancel, and changes its name to the extern (but hidden)
symbol __fcntl_nocancel_adjusted, so that regular fcntl can continue
calling it. __fcntl_nocancel now applies FCNTL_ADJUST_CMD; so that
both both fcntl.c and fcntl_nocancel.c can see it, the only nontrivial
definition moves from sysdeps/u/s/l/powerpc/powerpc64/fcntl.c to
.../powerpc64/sysdep.h and becomes entirely a macro, instead of a macro
that calls an inline function.
The nptl version of libpthread also changes a little, because its
"compat-routines" formerly included files that defined all the
_nocancel functions it uses; instead of continuing to duplicate them,
I exported the relevant ones from libc.so as GLIBC_PRIVATE. Since the
Linux fcntl.c calls a function defined by fcntl_nocancel.c, it can no
longer be used from libpthread.so; instead, introduce a custom
forwarder, pt-fcntl.c, and export __libc_fcntl from libc.so as
GLIBC_PRIVATE. The nios2-linux ABI doesn't include a copy of vfork()
in libpthread, and it was handling that by manipulating
libpthread-routines in .../linux/nios2/Makefile; it is cleaner to do
what other such ports do, and have a pt-vfork.S that defines no symbols.
Right now, it appears that Hurd does not implement _nocancel I/O, so
sysdeps/generic/not-cancel.h will forward everything back to the
regular functions. This changed the names of some of the functions
that sysdeps/mach/hurd/dl-sysdep.c needs to interpose.

This directory contains the sources of the GNU C Library.
See the file "version.h" for what release version you have.
The GNU C Library is the standard system C library for all GNU systems,
and is an important part of what makes up a GNU system. It provides the
system API for all programs written in C and C-compatible languages such
as C++ and Objective C; the runtime facilities of other programming
languages use the C library to access the underlying operating system.
In GNU/Linux systems, the C library works with the Linux kernel to
implement the operating system behavior seen by user applications.
In GNU/Hurd systems, it works with a microkernel and Hurd servers.
The GNU C Library implements much of the POSIX.1 functionality in the
GNU/Hurd system, using configurations i[4567]86-*-gnu.
When working with Linux kernels, this version of the GNU C Library
requires Linux kernel version 3.2 or later.
Also note that the shared version of the libgcc_s library must be
installed for the pthread library to work correctly.
The GNU C Library supports these configurations for using Linux kernels:

The GNU C Library is (almost) completely documented by the Texinfo manual
found in the `manual/' subdirectory. The manual is still being updated
and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not
have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like. For
corrections to the manual, please file a bug in the `manual' component,
following the bug-reporting instructions below. Please be sure to check
the manual in the current development sources to see if your problem has
already been corrected.
Please see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/bugs.html for bug reporting
information. We are now using the Bugzilla system to track all bug reports.
This web page gives detailed information on how to report bugs properly.
