Here is the patch I'm testing to restore ABI after the regular
backports. This looks fairly reasonable to me as far as such things
go.
I've put all patches on the fw/bug20018-backport branch on sourceware as
well.
Thanks,

Restore GLIBC_PRIVATE ABI after CVE-2016-10739 fix [BZ #20018]
This commit avoids adding the __inet_aton_exact@GLIBC_PRIVATE
symbol. In master, the separately-compiled getaddrinfo
implementation in nscd needs it, however such an internal ABI change
is not desirable on a release branch if it can be avoided easily.

Perfect, I thought I saw this in a public header. If it's not then we
don't have anything else to do. Your patch is the best solution.

Yes, the queries are pointless.

I planned to commit *another* commit which avoids the addition of the
GLIBC_PRIVATE symbol, with some code duplication. Basically, use
attribute_hidden instead of libc_hidden_proto for the declaration of
__inet_aton_exact, and also build resolv/inet_addr.c for nscd. We do
not always do that, but it seems easy enough to do it here, and it makes
our QE people happy.
If you want to do it, I can help you with that.
Thanks,
Florian

That didn't work due to linking failures in the test suite.
Here's something less ambitious. It retains the ABI for testing, but
patches nscd to use its own private copy.
(I have not put this on the branch due to Bugzilla spam this would
cause.)
Thanks,

This approach does not actually work because copying a prototype this
way and adding a hidden visibility attribute does not actually make the
symbol hidden. The patch below however has the desired effect, mainly
because interposition no longer happens and the __inet_aton_exact_hidden
function is not added to the dynamic symbol table of the nscd
executable.
I suspect I would have had to use __attribute__ ((visibility
("hidden"))) directly because we define attribute_hidden thusly:
#if defined SHARED || defined LIBC_NONSHARED \
|| (BUILD_PIE_DEFAULT && IS_IN (libc))
# define attribute_hidden __attribute__ ((visibility ("hidden")))
#else
# define attribute_hidden
#endif
I can post yet another patch which uses real hidden visibility and
avoids the symbol redirect.
Thanks,
Florian

It arrived while I was reviewing the first one, and I like this one

Can we kill the prototype from the public header and use an internal
header? It seems messy to leave that prototype for the GLIBC_PRIVATE
symbol in the public header. It might tempt people to workaround the
linkage protection.

I don't understand. There is no public header. We can't remove it from
the internal header because it would break the test suite build.

This version is a little hack-ish, but I don't object to it. It does
the job.
It is certainly a minimal set of changes, and that makes it quite
useful for the release branch.
I don't think you need to go any further unless you think the version
using real hidden visibility is all that much better?

I care about documenting intent, since this is what keeps the code
maintainable and the interfaces working.
You don't have to use the macros, but they self-document without needing
to have a comment.
In your case the comment is what's important, that we don't want to
export the symbol.

I'm just providing high-level review here, I haven't tested these patches,
I rely on you for that :-}
> Patch below. What do you think?
This looks good to me, you make direct use of "__attribute__ ((visibility ("hidden")))"
in an exceptional case, and that's fine.
If this becomes less rare for some reason we might want a libc-symbols.h macro to define
something that expresses the intent of the hidden visibility e.g. attr_dup_sym_hidden.
It's rare we have a fix that needs a new private interface, and that we can also
just dup the code to fix the problem. Most likely I expect we *can't* dup the code
and so need the new private interface to fix the bug, or we rework the fix entirely.

OK.

Hi,
I am looking at backporting fixes for CVE-2016-10739 (ie commit
108bc404) in the 2.28 branch first, and probably in the 2.24 branch
later. I would need some guidance how to proceed:
- Is it acceptable to also to backport commit 5e30b8ef ("resolv:
Reformat inet_addr, inet_aton to GNU style")? Without this patch,
there's a lot of conflicts that are a pain to fix.
- According to the commit message 6ca53a24 ("resolv: Do not send queries
for non-host-names in nss_dns [BZ #24112]"), also needs to be
backported. Is it fine to do so?
- The commit introduces a new symbol, which is something we usually do
not want in a stable branch. However the __inet_aton_exact symbol is
added under GLIBC_PRIVATE. Therefore I wonder if it is acceptable for
a stable branch.
Thanks,
Aurelien

Let me handle the backport the glibc 2.28, and you can take it from
there?

I'm not a firm believer in those macros. The fact that attribute_hidden
expanded to nothing at all was quite a surprise to me.
I've pushed the last version.
Aurelien, I will not be able to do any more backports before Wednesday,
so please feel free to take over.

Shouldn't this say "Remove GLIBC_PRIVATE ABI" ?
I admit this confused me for a while since the patch clearly removes
the ABI from resolv/Versions.

Why do you mark this attribute_hidden?
You should remove this from the public header, and move it to a private
header that we already have.
Again, this might be a balance question, between too many changes in the
release branch with respect to master.
Is your goal here to minimize the changes if we need future backports?
I'm OK with this, but please add a comment here saying this. We should
use comments to help reviewers and mergers undrestand why this is different.
e.g.
/* CVE-2016-10739: Hide this interface on the stable release branch. */

Why do we have to play with the weak aliases?

Why remove this? Why not redefine it like you did for weak alias?
If we are going to modify inet_addr.c, we can modify it
such that we avoid hacking weak_alias *or* hack both?
Like -DNSCD_INET_ADDR=0 from the Makefile for the normal build
and then #define NSCD_INET_ADDR 1 in the nscd-inet_addr.c sources?
Something cleaner that makes it obvious there is an interface
here between nscd/libc at the source level and that we are employing
source-level reuse. I know it makes the change a bit bigger and that
we need to balance a minimal change on a release branch, but it seems
like we could be a little bit more explicit with our changes.
Likewise if we're going to remove things, I think there is value
in comments explaining why this is missing. That way if you get
a merge failure you have a pointer to the reason, rather than nothing.
It documents intent.

Well, at least it does not have the completely ineffective
attribute_hidden. 8-)
Patch below. What do you think?
This one gets the symbol visibility correct.
$ eu-readelf -s ../build/nscd/nscd-inet_addr.o | grep inet_aton_exact
22: 0000000000000150 56 FUNC GLOBAL HIDDEN 1 __inet_aton_exact
$ eu-readelf -s ../build/nscd/gai.o | grep inet_aton_exact
99: 0000000000000000 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL HIDDEN UNDEF __inet_aton_exact
And there's no __inet_aton_exact symbol in nscd. I think this is fairly
standard usage of a hidden symbol, so renaming the symbol should not be
necessary.
Thanks,
Florian
nscd: Do not use __inet_aton_exact@GLIBC_PRIVATE [BZ #20018]
This commit avoids referencing the __inet_aton_exact@GLIBC_PRIVATE
symbol from nscd. In master, the separately-compiled getaddrinfo
implementation in nscd needs it, however such an internal ABI change
is not desirable on a release branch if it can be avoided.

[BZ #20018]
nscd: Do not rely on new GLIBC_PRIVATE ABI after CVE-2016-10739 fix.
* nscd/nscd-inet_addr.c: New file. Build resolv/inet_addr.c for
nscd, without public symbols.
* nscd/Makefile (nscd-modules): Add it.
* nscd/gai.c: Include <arpa/inet.h> and change visibility of
__inet_aton_exact.
