H A D | rseq.c | 233e667e Mon Jan 24 11:12:45 CST 2022 Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> selftests/rseq: Uplift rseq selftests for compatibility with glibc-2.35
glibc-2.35 (upcoming release date 2022-02-01) exposes the rseq per-thread data in the TCB, accessible at an offset from the thread pointer, rather than through an actual Thread-Local Storage (TLS) variable, as the Linux kernel selftests initially expected.
The __rseq_abi TLS and glibc-2.35's ABI for per-thread data cannot actively coexist in a process, because the kernel supports only a single rseq registration per thread.
Here is the scheme introduced to ensure selftests can work both with an older glibc and with glibc-2.35+:
- librseq exposes its own "rseq_offset, rseq_size, rseq_flags" ABI.
- librseq queries for glibc rseq ABI (__rseq_offset, __rseq_size, __rseq_flags) using dlsym() in a librseq library constructor. If those are found, copy their values into rseq_offset, rseq_size, and rseq_flags.
- Else, if those glibc symbols are not found, handle rseq registration from librseq and use its own IE-model TLS to implement the rseq ABI per-thread storage.
