Different systems prefer a different divisors.
From benchmarks[1] so far the following divisors have been found:
ICX : 2
SKX : 2
BWD : 8
For Intel, we are generalizing that BWD and older prefers 8 as a
divisor, and SKL and newer prefers 2. This number can be further tuned
as benchmarks are run.

This patch should have no affect on existing functionality.
The current code, which has a single switch for model detection and
setting prefered features, is difficult to follow/extend. The cases
use magic numbers and many microarchitectures are missing. This makes
it difficult to reason about what is implemented so far and/or
how/where to add support for new features.
This patch splits the model detection and preference setting stages so
that CPU preferences can be set based on a complete list of available
microarchitectures, rather than based on model magic numbers.

Current `non_temporal_threshold` set to roughly '3/4 * sizeof_L3 /
ncores_per_socket'. This patch updates that value to roughly
'sizeof_L3 / 4`
The original value (specifically dividing the `ncores_per_socket`) was
done to limit the amount of other threads' data a `memcpy`/`memset`
could evict.
Dividing by 'ncores_per_socket', however leads to exceedingly low
non-temporal thresholds and leads to using non-temporal stores in
cases where REP MOVSB is multiple times faster.
Furthermore, non-temporal stores are written directly to main memory
so using it at a size much smaller than L3 can place soon to be
accessed data much further away than it otherwise could be. As well,
modern machines are able to detect streaming patterns (especially if
REP MOVSB is used) and provide LRU hints to the memory subsystem. This
in affect caps the total amount of eviction at 1/cache_associativity,
far below meaningfully thrashing the entire cache.
As best I can tell, the benchmarks that lead this small threshold
where done comparing non-temporal stores versus standard cacheable
stores. A better comparison (linked below) is to be REP MOVSB which,
on the measure systems, is nearly 2x faster than non-temporal stores
at the low-end of the previous threshold, and within 10% for over
100MB copies (well past even the current threshold). In cases with a
low number of threads competing for bandwidth, REP MOVSB is ~2x faster
up to `sizeof_L3`.
The divisor of `4` is a somewhat arbitrary value. From benchmarks it
seems Skylake and Icelake both prefer a divisor of `2`, but older CPUs
such as Broadwell prefer something closer to `8`. This patch is meant
to be followed up by another one to make the divisor cpu-specific, but
in the meantime (and for easier backporting), this patch settles on
`4` as a middle-ground.

stores where done using:

Since the area of the user's stack we use for the registers dump (and
otherwise as __sigreturn2's stack) can and does overlap the sigcontext,
we have to be very careful about the order of loads and stores that we
do. In particular we have to load sc_reply_port before we start
clobbering the sigcontext.

Different than other 64 bit architectures, powerpc64 defines the
LFS POSIX lock constants with values similar to 32 ABI, which
are meant to be used with fcntl64 syscall. Since powerpc64 kABI
does not have fcntl, the constants are adjusted with the
FCNTL_ADJUST_CMD macro.
The 4d0fe291ae changed the logic of generic constants
LFS value are equal to the default values; which is now wrong
for powerpc64.
Fix the value by explicit define the previous glibc constants
(powerpc64 does not need to use the 32 kABI value, but it simplifies
the FCNTL_ADJUST_CMD which should be kept as compatibility).
Checked on powerpc64-linux-gnu and powerpc-linux-gnu.
For architecture with default 64 bit time_t support, the kernel
does not provide LFS and non-LFS values for F_GETLK, F_GETLK, and
F_GETLK (the default value used for 64 bit architecture are used).
This is might be considered an ABI break, but the currenct exported
values is bogus anyway.
The POSIX lockf is not affected since it is aliased to lockf64,
which already uses the LFS values.
Checked on i686-linux-gnu and the new tests on a riscv32.

The LoongArch glibc was using the value of the SHMLBA macro from common code,
which is __getpagesize() (16k), but this was inconsistent with the value of
the SHMLBA macro in the kernel, which is SZ_64K (64k). This caused several
shmat-related tests in LTP (Linux Test Project) to fail. This commit fixes
the issue by ensuring that the glibc's SHMLBA macro value matches the value
used in the kernel like other architectures.

If `non_temporal_threshold` is below `minimum_non_temporal_threshold`,
it almost certainly means we failed to read the systems cache info.
In this case, rather than defaulting the minimum correct value, we
should default to a value that gets at least reasonable
performance. 64MB is chosen conservatively to be at the very high
end. This should never cause non-temporal stores when, if we had read
cache info, we wouldn't have otherwise.

Some of the s390-specific configure checks are using compile and
link configure tests. Now use only compile tests as the link
tests fails when e.g. bootstrapping a cross-toolchain due to
missing crt-files/libc.so. This is achieved by using
AC_COMPILE_IFELSE in configure.ac file.
This is observable e.g. when using buildroot which builds glibc
only once or the build-many-glibcs.py script. Note that the latter
one is building glibc twice in the compilers-step (configure-checks
fails) and in the glibcs-step (configure-checks succeed).
Note, that the s390 specific configure tests for static PIE have to
link an executable to test binutils support. Thus we can't fix
those tests.
The __hurd_fail () inline function is the dedicated, idiomatic way of
