PATH_MAX after the token substitution. This is wrong, because
origin_subst_one() performs the substitution on the whole rpath and
similar strings, which contain several pathes separated by colon. As
result, long (but correct) rpath consisting of many path elements is
rejected by the function.
Correct the problem by rewriting the origin_subst_one() to perform two
passes, first pass to calculate the number of substitutions to be
performed, and second pass to generate the resulting string. Second
pass allocates the memory for the result based on the count from the
first pass, without enforcing a limit.

Rtld did not set FD_CLOEXEC on its internal file descriptors; therefore,
such a file descriptor may be passed to a process created by another thread
running in parallel to dlopen() or fdlopen().
No other threads are expected to be running during parsing of the hints
and libmap files but the file descriptors need not be passed to child
processes so add O_CLOEXEC there as well.
This change will break fdlopen() (as used by OpenPAM) on kernels without
F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC (added in July). Note that running new userland on old
kernels is not supported.

Subject: [PATCH 1/1] rtld: Implement DT_RUNPATH and -z nodefaultlib
DT_RUNPATH is incorrectly being considered as an alias of DT_RPATH. The
purpose of DT_RUNPATH is to have two different types of rpath: one that
can be overridden by the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH and one that
can't. With the currently implementation, LD_LIBRARY_PATH will always
trump any embedded rpath or runpath tags.
Current path search order by rtld:
==================================
LD_LIBRARY_PATH
DT_RPATH / DT_RUNPATH (always the same)
ldconfig hints file (default: /var/run/ld-elf.so.hints)
/usr/lib
New path search order by rtld:
==============================
DT_RPATH of the calling object if no DT_RUNPATH
DT_RPATH of the main binary if no DT_RUNPATH and binary isn't calling obj
LD_LIBRARY_PATH
DT_RUNPATH
ldconfig hints file
/usr/lib
The new path search matches how the linux runtime loader works. The other
major added feature is support for linker flag "-z nodefaultlib". When
this flag is passed to the linker, rtld will skip all references to the
standard library search path ("/usr/lib" in this case but it could handle
more color delimited paths) except in DT_RPATH and DT_RUNPATH.
New path search order by rtld with -z nodefaultlib flag set:
============================================================
DT_RPATH of the calling object if no DT_RUNPATH
DT_RPATH of the main binary if no DT_RUNPATH and binary isn't calling obj
LD_LIBRARY_PATH
DT_RUNPATH
ldconfig hints file (skips all references to /usr/lib)
FreeBSD notes:
- we fixed some bugs which were submitted to DragonFly and merged there
as commit 1ff8a2bd3eb6e5587174c6a983303ea3a79e0002;
- we added LD_LIBRARY_PATH_RPATH environment variable to switch to
the previous behaviour of considering DT_RPATH a synonym for DT_RUNPATH;
- the FreeBSD default search path is /lib:/usr/lib and not /usr/lib.

relocations are performed before the object's initializer is called.
When dlopen()ing an object, relocate the whole DAG rooted in the
object instead of only relocating the object itself and list of newly
loaded dependencies.
Reversed sequence currently can occur if the same object is a
dependency for both filtee and filter, since filtees are loaded
typically during the relocation processing, when some filter
dependencies might be already loaded but not relocated yet.

page of the object temporaly, and unmap it on error or last use.
Potentially, this leaves one-page gap between succeeding dlopen(3),
but there are other mmap(2) consumers as well.
Fix several cases were the whole mapping of the object leaked on error.
Use MAP_PREFAULT_READ for mmap(2) calls which map real object pages [2].

This seems to happen on ia64 for rtld object itself, where the
R_IA_64_FPTR64LSB relocations require symbol lookup. The dynamic
linker itself does not rely on identity of the C-level function
pointers (i.e. function descriptors).

Do not relocate twice an object which happens to be needed by loaded
binary (or dso) and some filtee opened due to symbol resolution when
relocating need objects. Record the state of the relocation
processing in Obj_Entry and short-circuit relocate_objects() if
current object already processed.
Do not call constructors for filtees loaded during the early
relocation processing before image is initialized enough to run
user-provided code. Filtees are loaded using dlopen_object(), which
normally performs relocation and initialization. If filtee is
lazy-loaded during the relocation of dso needed by the main object,
dlopen_object() runs too earlier, when most runtime services are not
yet ready.
Postpone the constructors call to the time when main binary and
depended libraries constructors are run, passing the new flag
RTLD_LO_EARLY to dlopen_object(). Symbol lookups callers inform
symlook_* functions about early stage of initialization with
SYMLOOK_EARLY. Pass flags through all functions participating in
object relocation.
Use the opportunity and fix flags argument to find_symdef() in
arch-specific reloc.c to use proper name SYMLOOK_IN_PLT instead of
true, which happen to have the same numeric value.
