Do not retry waitpid if the child was terminated by a signal. Do not
examine status: since we are not passing any flags, we will not receive
stop or continue notifications.
This aligns clearenv with the Linux man page by setting 'environ'
rather than '*environ' to NULL, and stops it from leaking entries
allocated by the libc.
Rewrite environment access functions to slim down code, fix bugs and
avoid invoking undefined behavior.
* avoid using int-typed iterators where size_t would be correct;
* use strncmp instead of memcmp consistently;
* tighten prologues by invoking __strchrnul;
* handle NULL environ.
putenv:
* handle "=value" input via unsetenv too (will return -1/EINVAL);
* rewrite and simplify __putenv; fix the leak caused by failure to
deallocate entry added by preceding setenv when called from putenv.
setenv:
* move management of libc-allocated entries to this translation unit,
and use no-op weak symbols in putenv/unsetenv;
unsetenv:
* rewrite; this fixes UB caused by testing a free'd pointer against
NULL on entry to subsequent loops.
Not changed:
Failure to extend allocation tracking array (previously __env_map, now
env_alloced) is ignored rather than causing to report -1/ENOMEM to the
caller; the worst-case consequence is leaking this allocation when it
is removed or replaced in a subsequent environment access.
Initially UB in unsetenv was reported by Alexander Cherepanov.
Using a weak alias to avoid pulling in malloc via unsetenv was
suggested by Rich Felker.
It is possible for argv[0] to be a null pointer, but the __progname
variable is used to implement functions in src/legacy/err.c that do not
expect it to be null. It is also available to the user via the
program_invocation_name alias as a GNU extension, and the implementation
in Glibc initializes it to a pointer to empty string rather than NULL.
Since argv[0] is usually non-null and it's preferable to keep those
variables in BSS, implement the fallbacks in __init_libc, which also
allows to have an intermediate fallback to AT_EXECFN.
The switch statement has no 'default:' case and the function ends
immediately following the switch, so the extra comparison did not
communicate any extra information to the compiler.
This is the minimal fix for __putenv leaving a pointer to freed heap
storage in __env_map array, which could later on lead to errors such
as double-free.
The callers need to check the value of the pointer anyway, so make
them pass the pointer to gnu_lookup instead of reloading it there.
Reorder gnu_lookup arguments so that always-used ones are listed
first. GCC can choose a calling convention with arguments in registers
(e.g. up to 3 arguments in eax, ecx, edx on x86), but cannot reorder
the arguments for static functions.
Introduce gnu_lookup_filtered and use it to speed up symbol lookups in
find_sym (do_dlsym is left as is, based on an expectation that
frequently dlsym queries will use a dlopen handle rather than
RTLD_NEXT or RTLD_DEFAULT, and will not need to look at more than one
DSO).
