 Subject: [PATCH] elf: Check for empty tokens before dynamic string token
  expansion [BZ #22625]
 
 The fillin_rpath function in elf/dl-load.c loops over each RPATH or
 RUNPATH tokens and interprets empty tokens as the current directory
 ("./"). In practice the check for empty token is done *after* the
 dynamic string token expansion. The expansion process can return an
 empty string for the $ORIGIN token if __libc_enable_secure is set
 or if the path of the binary can not be determined (/proc not mounted).
 
 Fix that by moving the check for empty tokens before the dynamic string
 token expansion. In addition, check for NULL pointer or empty strings
 return by expand_dynamic_string_token.
 
 The above changes highlighted a bug in decompose_rpath, an empty array
 is represented by the first element being NULL at the fillin_rpath
 level, but by using a -1 pointer in decompose_rpath and other functions.
 
 Changelog:
 	[BZ #22625]
 	* elf/dl-load.c (fillin_rpath): Check for empty tokens before dynamic
 	string token expansion. Check for NULL pointer or empty string possibly
 	returned by expand_dynamic_string_token.
 	(decompose_rpath): Check for empty path after dynamic string
 	token expansion.
