Part 1 of this test uses a large array so we are more likely getting
segfaults when using an incorrect TLS layout.
The `volatile`s and `taint_for_optimiter`s should hopefully prevent the
compiler from optimizing the tests out.
This commit un-deprecates DeprecatedString, and repurposes it as a byte
string.
As the null state has already been removed, there are no other
particularly hairy blockers in repurposing this type as a byte string
(what it _really_ is).
This commit is auto-generated:
$ xs=$(ack -l \bDeprecatedString\b\|deprecated_string AK Userland \
Meta Ports Ladybird Tests Kernel)
$ perl -pie 's/\bDeprecatedString\b/ByteString/g;
s/deprecated_string/byte_string/g' $xs
$ clang-format --style=file -i \
$(git diff --name-only | grep \.cpp\|\.h)
$ gn format $(git ls-files '*.gn' '*.gni')
The setup is a bit peculiar: both the definition and the use site of
these TLS variables have to be in a shared library, otherwise the linker
might relax the global-dynamic access mode to something that doesn't
require a `__tls_get_addr` call.
Note that in some cases (in particular SQL::Result and PDFErrorOr),
there is no Formatter defined for the error type, hence TRY_OR_FAIL
cannot work as-is. Furthermore, this commit leaves untouched the places
where MUST could be replaced by TRY_OR_FAIL.

We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
Otherwise, we end up propagating those dependencies into targets that
link against that library, which creates unnecessary link-time
dependencies.
Also included are changes to readd now missing dependencies to tools
that actually need them.
Even though the toolchain implicitly links against -lc, it does not know
where it should get LibC from except for the sysroot. In the case of
Clang this causes it to pick up the LibC stub instead, which might be
slightly outdated and feature missing symbols.
This is currently not an issue that manifests because we pass through
the dependency on LibC and other libraries by accident, which causes
CMake to link against the LibC target (instead of just the library),
and thus points the linker at the build output directory.
Since we are looking to fix that in the upcoming commits, let's make
sure that everything will still be able to find the proper LibC first.
This converts the return value of File::read_link() from String to
ErrorOr<String>.
The rest of the change is to support the potential of an Error being
returned and subsequent release of the value when no Error is returned.
Unfortunately at this stage none of the places affected can utililize
our TRY() macro.
Consider the situation where two shared libraries libA and libB, both
depending (as in having a NEEDED dtag) on libC. libA is first
dlopen()-ed, which produces libC to be mapped and linked. When libB is
dlopen()-ed the DynamicLinker would re-map and re-link libC though,
causing any previous references to its old location to be invalid. And
if libA's PLT has been patched to point to libC's symbols, then any
further invocations to libA will cause the code to jump to a virtual
address that isn't mapped anymore, therefore causing a crash. This
situation was reported in #10014, although the setup was more convolved
in the ticket.
This commit fixes the issue by distinguishing between a main program
loading being performed by Loader.so, and a dlopen() call. The main
difference between these two cases is that in the former the
s_globals_objects maps is always empty, while in the latter it might
already contain dependencies for the library being dlopen()-ed. Hence,
when collecting dependencies to map and link, dlopen() should skip those
that are present in the global map to avoid the issue described above.
With this patch the original issue seen in #10014 is gone, with all
python3 modules (so far) loading correctly.
A unit test reproducing a simplified issue is also included in this
commit. The unit test includes the building of two dynamic libraries A
and B with both depending on libline.so (and B also depending on A); the
test then dlopen()s libA, invokes one its function, then does the same
with libB.
Using a file(GLOB) to find all the test files in a directory is an easy
hack to get things started, but has some drawbacks. Namely, if you add
a test, it won't be found again without re-running CMake. `ninja` seems
to do this automatically, but it would be nice to one day stop seeing it
rechecking our globbed directories.
