Package: glibc
Version: 2.3.5-6
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Usually, glibc inlines calls to non-cancellable versions of some
system calls, such as open_not_cancel. The macro definitions are in
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/not-cancel.h.
This patch prevents those definitions from being inlined. It moves
them into separate *.c files.
This is needed for building Plash's modified version of glibc.
Background: Plash is a secure, restricted execution environment that
provides functionality similar to chroot(), but more flexible and
lightweight. It works partly by dynamically linking Linux executables
with a modified glibc. This is not used for taking authority away
from a process, only for giving it back. This approach is more
complete than using LD_PRELOADed libraries. There's more information
on what Plash does at <http://plash.beasts.org>.
Plash builds its custom glibc by re-linking the object files produced
by the glibc build process. It omits the object files for various
system calls and replaces them with its own code. For this to work
completely, those system calls cannot be inlined.
The attached patch should not break the normal build of glibc. I have
tested it for building the Debian glibc packages on i386, but not on
other architectures.
This patch isn't quite as essential for putting Plash into Debian as
the other one I filed in the BTS.
One complication in the patch is that Linuxthreads needs to refer to
some of the *_not_cancel functions. I have left these as inlined,
conditionally, when used by Linuxthreads. Usually Linuxthreads builds
its own versions of syscall object files (eg. ptw-close.os), but it
can't do this for close-not-cancel.os etc. because these are built
from C files, not from the assembler-based syscall generator.
The same approach is used for NPTL. However, in this case, the
syscall generating code does generate non-cancelling versions of some
of the syscalls. (This time they're called "close_nocancel"
etc. rather than "close_not_cancel".) For those syscalls, NPTL uses,
for example, the ptw-close.os object file, while close-not-cancel.c is
replaced with an empty file.
