TLS_STATIC_SURPLUS is 1664 bytes currently which is not enough to support DL_NNS (== 16) number of dynamic link namespaces, if we assume 192 bytes of TLS are reserved for libc use and 144 bytes are reserved for other system libraries that use IE TLS. A new tunable is introduced to control the number of supported namespaces and to adjust the surplus static TLS size as follows: surplus_tls = 192 * (rtld.nns-1) + 144 * rtld.nns + 512 The default is rtld.nns == 4 and then the surplus TLS size is the same as before, so the behaviour is unchanged by default. If an application creates more namespaces than the rtld.nns setting allows, then it is not guaranteed to work, but the limit is not checked. So existing usage will continue to work, but in the future if an application creates more than 4 dynamic link namespaces then the tunable will need to be set. In this patch DL_NNS is a fixed value and provides a maximum to the rtld.nns setting. Static linking used fixed 2048 bytes surplus TLS, this is changed so the same contract is used as for dynamic linking. With static linking DL_NNS == 1 so rtld.nns tunable is forced to 1, so by default the surplus TLS is reduced to 144 + 512 = 656 bytes. This change is not expected to cause problems. Tested on aarch64-linux-gnu and x86_64-linux-gnu. Reviewed-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com>
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: aarch64*-*-linux-gnu alpha*-*-linux-gnu arm-*-linux-gnueabi csky-*-linux-gnuabiv2 hppa-*-linux-gnu i[4567]86-*-linux-gnu x86_64-*-linux-gnu Can build either x86_64 or x32 ia64-*-linux-gnu m68k-*-linux-gnu microblaze*-*-linux-gnu mips-*-linux-gnu mips64-*-linux-gnu powerpc-*-linux-gnu Hardware or software floating point, BE only. powerpc64*-*-linux-gnu Big-endian and little-endian. s390-*-linux-gnu s390x-*-linux-gnu riscv64-*-linux-gnu sh[34]-*-linux-gnu sparc*-*-linux-gnu sparc64*-*-linux-gnu If you are interested in doing a port, please contact the glibc maintainers; see https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/ for more information. See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, and install the GNU C Library. You might also consider reading the WWW pages for the C library at https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/. 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 https://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. The GNU C Library is free software. See the file COPYING.LIB for copying conditions, and LICENSES for notices about a few contributions that require these additional notices to be distributed. License copyright years may be listed using range notation, e.g., 1996-2015, indicating that every year in the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that would otherwise be listed individually.
