2022-11-10tools/nolibc/string: Fix memcmp() implementationRasmus Villemoes1-2/+2
commit b3f4f51ea68a495f8a5956064c33dce711a2df91 upstream. The C standard says that memcmp() must treat the buffers as consisting of "unsigned chars". If char happens to be unsigned, the casts are ok, but then obviously the c1 variable can never contain a negative value. And when char is signed, the casts are wrong, and there's still a problem with using an 8-bit quantity to hold the difference, because that can range from -255 to +255. For example, assuming char is signed, comparing two 1-byte buffers, one containing 0x00 and another 0x80, the current implementation would return -128 for both memcmp(a, b, 1) and memcmp(b, a, 1), whereas one of those should of course return something positive.

2022-01-27tools/nolibc: fix incorrect truncation of exit codeWilly Tarreau1-8/+5
commit de0244ae40ae91145faaf164a4252347607c3711 upstream. Ammar Faizi reported that our exit code handling is wrong. We truncate it to the lowest 8 bits but the syscall itself is expected to take a regular 32-bit signed integer, not an unsigned char. It's the kernel that later truncates it to the lowest 8 bits. The difference is visible in strace, where the program below used to show exit(255) instead of exit(-1): int main(void) { return -1; } This patch applies the fix to all archs. x86_64, i386, arm64, armv7 and mips were all tested and confirmed to work fine now. Risc-v was not tested but the change is trivial and exactly the same as for other archs.

2022-01-27tools/nolibc: i386: fix initial stack alignmentWilly Tarreau1-1/+9
commit ebbe0d8a449d183fa43b42d84fcb248e25303985 upstream. After re-checking in the spec and comparing stack offsets with glibc, The last pushed argument must be 16-byte aligned (i.e. aligned before the call) so that in the callee esp+4 is multiple of 16, so the principle is the 32-bit equivalent to what Ammar fixed for x86_64. It's possible that 32-bit code using SSE2 or MMX could have been affected. In addition the frame pointer ought to be zero at the deepest level.

2022-01-27tools/nolibc: x86-64: Fix startup code bugAmmar Faizi1-2/+8
commit 937ed91c712273131de6d2a02caafd3ee84e0c72 upstream. Before this patch, the `_start` function looks like this: ``` 0000000000001170 <_start>: 1170: pop %rdi 1171: mov %rsp,%rsi 1174: lea 0x8(%rsi,%rdi,8),%rdx 1179: and $0xfffffffffffffff0,%rsp 117d: sub $0x8,%rsp 1181: call 1000 <main> 1186: movzbq %al,%rdi 118a: mov $0x3c,%rax 1191: syscall 1193: hlt 1194: data16 cs nopw 0x0(%rax,%rax,1) 119f: nop ``` Note the "and" to %rsp with $-16, it makes the %rsp be 16-byte aligned, but then there is a "sub" with $0x8 which makes the %rsp no longer 16-byte aligned, then it calls main. That's the bug! What actually the x86-64 System V ABI mandates is that right before the "call", the %rsp must be 16-byte aligned, not after the "call". So the "sub" with $0x8 here breaks the alignment. Remove it. An example where this rule matters is when the callee needs to align its stack at 16-byte for aligned move instruction, like `movdqa` and `movaps`. If the callee can't align its stack properly, it will result in segmentation fault. x86-64 System V ABI also mandates the deepest stack frame should be zero. Just to be safe, let's zero the %rbp on startup as the content of %rbp may be unspecified when the program starts. Now it looks like this: ``` 0000000000001170 <_start>: 1170: pop %rdi 1171: mov %rsp,%rsi 1174: lea 0x8(%rsi,%rdi,8),%rdx 1179: xor %ebp,%ebp # zero the %rbp 117b: and $0xfffffffffffffff0,%rsp # align the %rsp 117f: call 1000 <main> 1184: movzbq %al,%rdi 1188: mov $0x3c,%rax 118f: syscall 1191: hlt 1192: data16 cs nopw 0x0(%rax,%rax,1) 119d: nopl (%rax) ``` Cc: Bedirhan KURT <windowz414@gnuweeb.org> Cc: Louvian Lyndal <louvianlyndal@gmail.com> Reported-by: Peter Cordes <peter@cordes.ca> Signed-off-by: Ammar Faizi <ammar.faizi@students.amikom.ac.id> [wt: I did this on purpose due to a misunderstanding of the spec, other archs will thus have to be rechecked, particularly i386] Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Willy Tarreau <w@1wt.eu> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2019-01-26tools headers: Move the nolibc header from rcutorture to tools/include/nolibc/Willy Tarreau1-0/+2263
As suggested by Ingo, this header file might benefit other tools than just rcutorture. For now it's quite limited, but is easy to extend, so exposing it into tools/include/nolibc/ will make it much easier to adopt by other tools. The mkinitrd.sh script in rcutorture was updated to use this new location. Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Paul E.
