GNU libc.so如何既是共享对象又是独立可执行文件?

在Linux中,GNU标准C库(libc.so)的共享库不仅是一个共享库,还可以作为独立的可执行文件运行,它可以打印出版本信息:

[me@computer ~]$ /lib/libc.so.6

他们是怎么做到的?我尝试创建一个同样具有main()函数的共享库,但是当我尝试运行它时它会发生错误。

我尝试了什么:

/* myso.c */
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

static void foo(void) {
    printf("hello foo\n");
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
    printf("hello world\n");
    foo();
    return 0;
}

然后:

$ gcc -Wall -fPIC -shared -o myso.so myso.c
$ ./myso.so
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

作为一个注释:我真的不想为了任何真正的目的而这样做,我只是想知道GNU的人(和gals)是如何做到的。

Makerules的文件glibc

# Give libc.so an entry point and make it directly runnable itself.
LDFLAGS-c.so += -e __libc_main

并在csu/version.c

extern void __libc_print_version (void);
void
__libc_print_version (void)
{
  __write (STDOUT_FILENO, banner, sizeof banner - 1);
}

这由__libc_main()调用。

在文件elf/interp.c中,程序解释器被添加到共享对象中。

这适用于64位Linux:gcc -Wall -Wextra -fPIC -shared -o myso.so myso.c

//myso.c
#include <unistd.h>

char const __invoke_dynamic_linker__[] __attribute__ ((section (".interp")))
#ifdef __LP64__
  = "/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2";
#else
  = "/lib/ld-linux.so.2";
#endif

void _start(void)
{
    static char const msg[] = "Hello world!\n";

    write(STDOUT_FILENO, msg, sizeof msg - 1);          
    _exit(0);
}

需要__invoke_dynamic_linker__[]行,因为如果没有write_exit的动态链接就无法完成。此变量的名称并不重要。 ld-dynamic-linker有一个选项可以执行相同操作,但-shared会忽略它,但将该行放入源代码中。

以下是没有动态链接的变体:

#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/syscall.h>

__asm__(
#ifdef __LP64__
    "syscall: mov    %rdi,%rax;"
    "   mov    %rsi,%rdi;"
    "   mov    %rdx,%rsi;"
    "   mov    %rcx,%rdx;"
    "   mov    %r8,%r10;"
    "   mov    %r9,%r8;"
    "   mov    0x8(%rsp),%r9;"
    "   syscall;"
    "   cmp    $0xfffffffffffff001,%rax;"
    "   jae    __syscall_error;"
    "   retq;   "
    "__syscall_error: neg    %rax;"
    "   mov    %eax,%fs:0xffffffffffffffd0;"
    "   or     $0xffffffffffffffff,%rax;"
    "   retq;"   
#else
    "syscall:   push   %ebp;"
    "   push   %edi;"
    "   push   %esi;"
    "   push   %ebx;"
    "   mov    0x2c(%esp),%ebp;"
    "   mov    0x28(%esp),%edi;"
    "   mov    0x24(%esp),%esi;"
    "   mov    0x20(%esp),%edx;"
    "   mov    0x1c(%esp),%ecx;"
    "   mov    0x18(%esp),%ebx;"
    "   mov    0x14(%esp),%eax;"
    "   int    $0x80;"
    "   pop    %ebx;"
    "   pop    %esi;"
    "   pop    %edi;"
    "   pop    %ebp;"
    "   cmp    $0xfffff001,%eax;"
    "   jae    __syscall_error;"
    "   ret;"    
    "__syscall_error:   neg    %eax;"
    "   mov    %gs:0x0,%ecx;"
    "   mov    %eax,-0x18(%ecx);"
    "   mov    $0xffffffff,%eax;"
    "   ret;"    
#endif
);

void _start(void)
{
    static char const msg[] = "Hello world!\n";

    syscall(SYS_write, STDOUT_FILENO, msg, sizeof msg - 1);
    syscall(SYS_exit, 0);
}
