As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.
We need to workaround the fact that MAP_PRIVATE when passed a file
descriptor doesn't work the way we expect. We can't change the
permissions on our mmap to PROT_WRITE if the original executable doesn't
have PROT_WRITE.
Because of this, we need to construct our ELFDynamicObject using the
actual virtual address of the .dynamic section, instead of using the
offset into the ELFImage that was actually getting modified by accident
...somehow. Not clear what was going on.
Separate some responsibilities:
ELFDynamicLoader is responsible for loading elf binaries from disk and
performing relocations, calling init functions, and eventually calling
finalizer functions.
ELFDynamicObject is a helper class to parse the .dynamic section of an
elf binary, or the table of Elf32_Dyn entries at the _DYNAMIC symbol.
ELFDynamicObject now owns the helper classes for Relocations, Symbols,
Sections and the like that ELFDynamicLoader will use to perform
relocations and symbol lookup.
Because these new helpers are constructed from offsets into the .dynamic
section within the loaded .data section of the binary, we don't need the
ELFImage for nearly as much of the loading processes as we did before.
Therefore we can remove most of the extra DynamicXXX classes and just
keep the one that lets us find the location of _DYNAMIC in the new ELF.
And finally, since we changed the name of the class that dlopen/dlsym
care about, we need to compile/link and use the new ELFDynamicLoader
class in LibC.
For dynamic loading, the symbol bind of a symbol actually doesn't
matter. We could do what old glibc did and try to find a strong
symbol for any weak definitions, but the ELF spec doesn't require
it and they changed that a few years ago anyway. So, moot point. :)
ELFDynamicObject::load looks a lot better with all the steps
re-organized into helpers.
Add plt_trampoline.S to handle PLT fixups for lazy loading.
Add the needed trampoline-trampolines in ELFDynamicObject to get to
the proper relocations and to return the symbol back to the assembly
method to call into from the PLT once we return back to user code.
We weren't calling the method here before because it was ill-formed.
No start files meant that we got the front half of the init section but
not the back half (no 'ret' in _init!). Now that we have the proper
crtbeginS and crtendS files from libgcc to help us out, we can assume
that DSOs will have the proper _init method defined.
This patch also adds some missing relocation defines to exec_elf.h,
and a few helper classes/methods to ELFImage so that we can use it
for our dynamically loaded libs and not just main program images from
the kernel :)
