An earlier fix for TLS dropped early initialization of DTV entries for modules using static TLS, leaving it for __tls_get_addr to set them up. That worked on platforms that require the GD access model to be relaxed to LE in the main executable, but it caused a regression on platforms that allow GD in the main executable, particularly in statically-linked programs: they use a custom __tls_get_addr that does not update the DTV, which fails when the DTV early initialization is not performed. In static programs, __libc_setup_tls performs the DTV initialization for the main thread, but the DTV of other threads is set up in _dl_allocate_tls_init, so that's the fix that matters. Restoring the initialization in the remaining functions modified by this patch was just for uniformity. It's not clear that it is ever needed: even on platforms that allow GD in the main executable, the dynamically-linked version of __tls_get_addr would set up the DTV entries, even for static TLS modules, while updating the DTV counter. for ChangeLog [BZ #19826] * elf/dl-tls.c (_dl_allocate_tls_init): Restore DTV early initialization of static TLS entries. * elf/dl-reloc.c (_dl_nothread_init_static_tls): Likewise. * nptl/allocatestack.c (init_one_static_tls): Likewise.
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. The current GNU/Hurd support requires out-of-tree patches that will eventually be incorporated into an official GNU C Library release. When working with Linux kernels, this version of the GNU C Library requires Linux kernel version 3.2 or later on all architectures except i[4567]86 and x86_64, where Linux kernel version 2.6.32 or later suffices. 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 hppa-*-linux-gnu Not currently functional without patches. 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 sh[34]-*-linux-gnu sparc*-*-linux-gnu sparc64*-*-linux-gnu tilegx-*-linux-gnu tilepro-*-linux-gnu If you are interested in doing a port, please contact the glibc maintainers; see http://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 http://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 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. 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.
