Aliaksei Kandratsenka 946d687d26 elf: Move _dl_find_object updates out of dl_load_tls_lock
GL(dl_load_tls_lock) was introduced (bug 28357) to protect global and
module-specific TLS state, and dl_open_worker_begin conservatively runs
most of dlopen under it.  The lock is also taken by pthread_create and
__tls_get_addr, so work done while holding it, such as the malloc calls
in _dl_find_object_update, can block unrelated threads.  Hold it only
for the steps that need it.

Move the fallible _dl_find_object_update call, together with
activate_nodelete, update_scopes, the reloc_complete probe and the
libc early init call, from dl_open_worker_begin to dl_open_worker,
after dl_load_tls_lock has been released.  These steps run after
relocation is complete and do not touch the TLS state that the lock
protects.  They remain serialized against other dlopen and dlclose
calls by GL(dl_load_lock), which is held throughout.

The RT_CONSISTENT debugger/audit checkpoint is moved into
maybe_report_r_debug_consistent.  It is called on the success path
before initializers run, and from _dl_open for the error path, and
ensures that the checkpoint is signalled exactly once.  The order of
events relative to libc early init, the initializers and the error
cleanup is unchanged.  The r_debug pointer used for the
reloc_start/reloc_complete probes is now kept in struct dl_open_args.

In dlclose, call _dl_find_object_dlclose for all unloaded objects in a
separate loop before dl_load_tls_lock and GL(dl_load_write_lock) are
taken.  _dl_find_object readers are lock-free, and writers are
serialized by GL(dl_load_lock), so neither lock is needed for this
update.  The objects are also marked as closed in the _dl_find_object
data before they are unlinked and unmapped.

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 and x86_64-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
	arc*-*-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
	loongarch64-*-linux-gnu Hardware floating point, LE only.

	or1k-*-linux-gnu
	powerpc-*-linux-gnu	Hardware or software floating point, BE only.
	powerpc64*-*-linux-gnu	Big-endian and little-endian.

	riscv32-*-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://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Bugzilla%20Procedures 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.
