For ELF TLS "local-exec" accesses, the static linker assumes that an
executable's TLS segment is located at a statically-known offset from the
thread pointer (i.e. "variant 1" for ARM and "variant 2" for x86).
Because these layouts are incompatible, Bionic generally needs to allocate
its TLS slots differently between different architectures.
To allow per-architecture TLS slots:
- Replace the TLS_SLOT_xxx enumerators with macros. New ARM slots are
generally negative, while new x86 slots are generally positive.
- Define a bionic_tcb struct that provides two things:
- a void* raw_slots_storage[BIONIC_TLS_SLOTS] field
- an inline accessor function: void*& tls_slot(size_t tpindex);
For ELF TLS, it's necessary to allocate a temporary TCB (i.e. TLS slots),
because the runtime linker doesn't know how large the static TLS area is
until after it has loaded all of the initial solibs.
To accommodate Golang, it's necessary to allocate the pthread keys at a
fixed, small, positive offset from the thread pointer.
This CL moves the pthread keys into bionic_tls, then allocates a single
mapping per thread that looks like so:
- stack guard
- stack [omitted for main thread and with pthread_attr_setstack]
- static TLS:
- bionic_tcb [exec TLS will either precede or succeed the TCB]
- bionic_tls [prefixed by the pthread keys]
- [solib TLS segments will be placed here]
- guard page
As before, if the new mapping includes a stack, the pthread_internal_t
is allocated on it.
At startup, Bionic allocates a temporary bionic_tcb object on the stack,
then allocates a temporary bionic_tls object using mmap. This mmap is
delayed because the linker can't currently call async_safe_fatal() before
relocating itself.
Later, Bionic allocates a stack-less thread mapping for the main thread,
and copies slots from the temporary TCB to the new TCB.
(See *::copy_from_bootstrap methods.)
Bug: http://b/78026329
Test: bionic unit tests
Test: verify that a Golang app still works
Test: verify that a Golang app crashes if bionic_{tls,tcb} are swapped
