063f9ba220 elf: Avoid unnecessary slowdown from profiling with audit (BZ#15533)
The rtld-audit interfaces introduces a slowdown due to enabling
profiling instrumentation (as if LD_AUDIT implied LD_PROFILE).
However, instrumenting is only necessary if one of audit libraries
provides PLT callbacks (la_pltenter or la_pltexit symbols).  Otherwise,
the slowdown can be avoided.

The following patch adjusts the logic that enables profiling to iterate
over all audit modules and check if any of those provides a PLT hook.
To keep la_symbind to work even without PLT callbacks, _dl_fixup now
calls the audit callback if the modules implements it.

98d5fcb8d0 malloc: Add Huge Page support for mmap
With the morecore hook removed, there is not easy way to provide huge
pages support on with glibc allocator without resorting to transparent
huge pages.  And some users and programs do prefer to use the huge pages
directly instead of THP for multiple reasons: no splitting, re-merging
by the VM, no TLB shootdowns for running processes, fast allocation
from the reserve pool, no competition with the rest of the processes
unlike THP, no swapping all, etc.

This patch extends the 'glibc.malloc.hugetlb' tunable: the value
'2' means to use huge pages directly with the system default size,
while a positive value means and specific page size that is matched
against the supported ones by the system.

Currently only memory allocated on sysmalloc() is handled, the arenas
still uses the default system page size.

To test is a new rule is added tests-malloc-hugetlb2, which run the
addes tests with the required GLIBC_TUNABLE setting.  On systems without
a reserved huge pages pool, is just stress the mmap(MAP_HUGETLB)
allocation failure.  To improve test coverage it is required to create
a pool with some allocated pages.

5f6d8d97c6 malloc: Add madvise support for Transparent Huge Pages
Linux Transparent Huge Pages (THP) current supports three different
states: 'never', 'madvise', and 'always'.  The 'never' is
self-explanatory and 'always' will enable THP for all anonymous
pages.  However, 'madvise' is still the default for some system and
for such case THP will be only used if the memory range is explicity
advertise by the program through a madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) call.

To enable it a new tunable is provided, 'glibc.malloc.hugetlb',
where setting to a value diffent than 0 enables the madvise call.

This patch issues the madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) call after a successful
mmap() call at sysmalloc() with sizes larger than the default huge
page size.  The madvise() call is disable is system does not support
THP or if it has the mode set to "never" and on Linux only support
one page size for THP, even if the architecture supports multiple
sizes.

To test is a new rule is added tests-malloc-hugetlb1, which run the
addes tests with the required GLIBC_TUNABLE setting.

23645707f1 Replace --enable-static-pie with --disable-default-pie
Build glibc programs and tests as PIE by default and enable static-pie
automatically if the architecture and toolchain supports it.

Also add a new configuration option --disable-default-pie to prevent
building programs as PIE.

Only the following architectures now have PIE disabled by default
because they do not work at the moment.  hppa, ia64, alpha and csky
don't work because the linker is unable to handle a pcrel relocation
generated from PIE objects.  The microblaze compiler is currently
failing with an ICE.  GNU hurd tries to enable static-pie, which does
not work and hence fails.  All these targets have default PIE disabled
at the moment and I have left it to the target maintainers to enable PIE
on their targets.

build-many-glibcs runs clean for all targets.  I also tested x86_64 on
Fedora and Ubuntu, to verify that the default build as well as
--disable-default-pie work as expected with both system toolchains.

309548bec3 Support C2X printf %b, %B
C2X adds a printf %b format (see
<http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n2630.pdf>, accepted
for C2X), for outputting integers in binary.  It also has recommended
practice for a corresponding %B format (like %b, but %#B starts the
output with 0B instead of 0b).  Add support for these formats to
glibc.

One existing test uses %b as an example of an unknown format, to test
how glibc printf handles unknown formats; change that to %v.  Use of
%b and %B as user-registered format specifiers continues to work (and
we already have a test that covers that, tst-printfsz.c).

Note that C2X also has scanf %b support, plus support for binary
constants starting 0b in strtol (base 0 and 2) and scanf %i (strtol
base 0 and scanf %i coming from a previous paper that added binary
integer literals).  I intend to implement those features in a separate
patch or patches; as discussed in the thread starting at
<https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2020-December/120414.html>,
they will be more complicated because they involve adding extra public
symbols to ensure compatibility with existing code that might not
expect 0b constants to be handled by strtol base 0 and 2 and scanf %i,
whereas simply adding a new format specifier poses no such
compatibility concerns.

Note that the actual conversion from integer to string uses existing
code in _itoa.c.  That code has special cases for bases 8, 10 and 16,
probably so that the compiler can optimize division by an integer
constant in the code for those bases.  If desired such special cases
could easily be added for base 2 as well, but that would be an
optimization, not actually needed for these printf formats to work.

Tested for x86_64 and x86.  Also tested with build-many-glibcs.py for
aarch64-linux-gnu with GCC mainline to make sure that the test does
indeed build with GCC 12 (where format checking warnings are enabled
for most of the test).

15a0c5730d elf: Fix slow DSO sorting behavior in dynamic loader (BZ #17645)
This second patch contains the actual implementation of a new sorting algorithm
for shared objects in the dynamic loader, which solves the slow behavior that
the current "old" algorithm falls into when the DSO set contains circular
dependencies.

The new algorithm implemented here is simply depth-first search (DFS) to obtain
the Reverse-Post Order (RPO) sequence, a topological sort. A new l_visited:1
bitfield is added to struct link_map to more elegantly facilitate such a search.

The DFS algorithm is applied to the input maps[nmap-1] backwards towards
maps[0]. This has the effect of a more "shallow" recursion depth in general
since the input is in BFS. Also, when combined with the natural order of
processing l_initfini[] at each node, this creates a resulting output sorting
closer to the intuitive "left-to-right" order in most cases.

Another notable implementation adjustment related to this _dl_sort_maps change
is the removing of two char arrays 'used' and 'done' in _dl_close_worker to
represent two per-map attributes. This has been changed to simply use two new
bit-fields l_map_used:1, l_map_done:1 added to struct link_map. This also allows
discarding the clunky 'used' array sorting that _dl_sort_maps had to sometimes
do along the way.

Tunable support for switching between different sorting algorithms at runtime is
also added. A new tunable 'glibc.rtld.dynamic_sort' with current valid values 1
(old algorithm) and 2 (new DFS algorithm) has been added. At time of commit
of this patch, the default setting is 1 (old algorithm).

01d34e934a Add C2X _PRINTF_NAN_LEN_MAX
C2X adds a macro _PRINTF_NAN_LEN_MAX to <stdio.h>, giving the maximum
length of printf output for a NaN.  glibc never includes an
n-char-sequence in its printf output for NaNs, so the correct value
for glibc is 4 ("-nan" or "-NAN"); define the macro accordingly.

This patch makes the macro definition conditional on __GLIBC_USE
(ISOC2X), as is generally done with features from new standard
versions.  The name is in the implementation namespace for older
standards, so it would also be possible to define it unconditionally.

90f0ac10a7 Add fmaximum, fminimum functions
C2X adds new <math.h> functions for floating-point maximum and
minimum, corresponding to the new operations that were added in IEEE
754-2019 because of concerns about the old operations not being
associative in the presence of signaling NaNs.  fmaximum and fminimum
handle NaNs like most <math.h> functions (any NaN argument means the
result is a quiet NaN).  fmaximum_num and fminimum_num handle both
quiet and signaling NaNs the way fmax and fmin handle quiet NaNs (if
one argument is a number and the other is a NaN, return the number),
but still raise "invalid" for a signaling NaN argument, making them
exceptions to the normal rule that a function with a floating-point
result raising "invalid" also returns a quiet NaN.  fmaximum_mag,
fminimum_mag, fmaximum_mag_num and fminimum_mag_num are corresponding
functions returning the argument with greatest or least absolute
value.  All these functions also treat +0 as greater than -0.  There
are also corresponding <tgmath.h> type-generic macros.

Add these functions to glibc.  The implementations use type-generic
templates based on those for fmax, fmin, fmaxmag and fminmag, and test
inputs are based on those for those functions with appropriate
adjustments to the expected results.  The RISC-V maintainers might
wish to add optimized versions of fmaximum_num and fminimum_num (for
float and double), since RISC-V (F extension version 2.2 and later)
provides instructions corresponding to those functions - though it
might be at least as useful to add architecture-independent built-in
functions to GCC and teach the RISC-V back end to expand those
functions inline, which is what you generally want for functions that
can be implemented with a single instruction.

Tested for x86_64 and x86, and with build-many-glibcs.py.

8807e560c0 Define __STDC_IEC_60559_BFP__ and __STDC_IEC_60559_COMPLEX__
TS 18661-1 and C2X specify predefined macros __STDC_IEC_60559_BFP__
and __STDC_IEC_60559_COMPLEX__, making __STDC_IEC_559__ and
__STDC_IEC_559_COMPLEX__ obsolescent (but still included in the
standard).  Now that we have all the functions from TS 18661-1, define
these macros in stdc-predef.h, under the same conditions in which the
older macros are defined, since support for the floating-point
features in TS 18661-1 is now at the same level as that for those in
C11 and before (all library functions and other library APIs present,
but no standard pragma support).

The macros are defined for now with their TS 18661-1 values.  C2X will
give them new values (listed as yyyymmL in the working drafts until
the final standard), at which point there will be the question of what
value to use in stdc-predef.h (where it could depend on
__STDC_VERSION__, but not on feature test macros defined by the user).
My inclination then would be to use the C2X value unconditionally
rather than using an older value to indicate TS support, and only have
any C standard version conditionals for the value when subsequent C
standard versions define further values.

(Note that I'm also inclined, when we implement the C2X change to the
return types of fromfp functions, to make that change unconditional
much like the change made to the types of totalorder functions, with
the old version only supported with compat symbols for already-linked
programs and not as an API for newly built objects.  So using the C2X
value would also accurately reflect not supporting the versions of
APIs in the TS where those ended up being incompatible with the first
version actually added to the standard.)

b3f27d8150 Add narrowing fma functions
This patch adds the narrowing fused multiply-add functions from TS
18661-1 / TS 18661-3 / C2X to glibc's libm: ffma, ffmal, dfmal,
f32fmaf64, f32fmaf32x, f32xfmaf64 for all configurations; f32fmaf64x,
f32fmaf128, f64fmaf64x, f64fmaf128, f32xfmaf64x, f32xfmaf128,
f64xfmaf128 for configurations with _Float64x and _Float128;
__f32fmaieee128 and __f64fmaieee128 aliases in the powerpc64le case
(for calls to ffmal and dfmal when long double is IEEE binary128).
Corresponding tgmath.h macro support is also added.

The changes are mostly similar to those for the other narrowing
functions previously added, especially that for sqrt, so the
description of those generally applies to this patch as well.  As with
sqrt, I reused the same test inputs in auto-libm-test-in as for
non-narrowing fma rather than adding extra or separate inputs for
narrowing fma.  The tests in libm-test-narrow-fma.inc also follow
those for non-narrowing fma.

The non-narrowing fma has a known bug (bug 6801) that it does not set
errno on errors (overflow, underflow, Inf * 0, Inf - Inf).  Rather
than fixing this or having narrowing fma check for errors when
non-narrowing does not (complicating the cases when narrowing fma can
otherwise be an alias for a non-narrowing function), this patch does
not attempt to check for errors from narrowing fma and set errno; the
CHECK_NARROW_FMA macro is still present, but as a placeholder that
does nothing, and this missing errno setting is considered to be
covered by the existing bug rather than needing a separate open bug.
missing-errno annotations are duly added to many of the
auto-libm-test-in test inputs for fma.

This completes adding all the new functions from TS 18661-1 to glibc,
so will be followed by corresponding stdc-predef.h changes to define
__STDC_IEC_60559_BFP__ and __STDC_IEC_60559_COMPLEX__, as the support
for TS 18661-1 will be at a similar level to that for C standard
floating-point facilities up to C11 (pragmas not implemented, but
library functions done).  (There are still further changes to be done
to implement changes to the types of fromfp functions from N2548.)

Tested as followed: natively with the full glibc testsuite for x86_64
(GCC 11, 7, 6) and x86 (GCC 11); with build-many-glibcs.py with GCC
11, 7 and 6; cross testing of math/ tests for powerpc64le, powerpc32
hard float, mips64 (all three ABIs, both hard and soft float).  The
different GCC versions are to cover the different cases in tgmath.h
and tgmath.h tests properly (GCC 6 has _Float* only as typedefs in
glibc headers, GCC 7 has proper _Float* support, GCC 8 adds
__builtin_tgmath).

a93d9e03a3 Extend struct r_debug to support multiple namespaces [BZ #15971]
Glibc does not provide an interface for debugger to access libraries
loaded in multiple namespaces via dlmopen.

The current rtld-debugger interface is described in the file:

elf/rtld-debugger-interface.txt

under the "Standard debugger interface" heading.  This interface only
provides access to the first link-map (LM_ID_BASE).

1. Bump r_version to 2 when multiple namespaces are used.  This triggers
the GDB bug:

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28236

2. Add struct r_debug_extended to extend struct r_debug into a linked-list,
where each element correlates to an unique namespace.
3. Initialize the r_debug_extended structure.  Bump r_version to 2 for
the new namespace and add the new namespace to the namespace linked list.
4. Add _dl_debug_update to return the address of struct r_debug' of a
namespace.
5. Add a hidden symbol, _r_debug_extended, for struct r_debug_extended.
6. Provide the symbol, _r_debug, with size of struct r_debug, as an alias
of _r_debug_extended, for programs which reference _r_debug.

This fixes BZ #15971.

abd383584b Add narrowing square root functions
This patch adds the narrowing square root functions from TS 18661-1 /

f32sqrtf32x, f32xsqrtf64 for all configurations; f32sqrtf64x,
f32sqrtf128, f64sqrtf64x, f64sqrtf128, f32xsqrtf64x, f32xsqrtf128,

Corresponding tgmath.h macro support is also added.

The changes are mostly similar to those for the other narrowing
functions previously added, so the description of those generally
applies to this patch as well.  However, the not-actually-narrowing
cases (where the two types involved in the function have the same
floating-point format) are aliased to sqrt, sqrtl or sqrtf128 rather
than needing a separately built not-actually-narrowing function such
as was needed for add / sub / mul / div.  Thus, there is no
__nldbl_dsqrtl name for ldbl-opt because no such name was needed
(whereas the other functions needed such a name since the only other
name for that entry point was e.g. f32xaddf64, not reserved by TS
18661-1); the headers are made to arrange for sqrt to be called in
that case instead.

The DIAG_* calls in sysdeps/ieee754/soft-fp/s_dsqrtl.c are because
they were observed to be needed in GCC 7 testing of
riscv32-linux-gnu-rv32imac-ilp32.  The other sysdeps/ieee754/soft-fp/
files added didn't need such DIAG_* in any configuration I tested with
build-many-glibcs.py, but if they do turn out to be needed in more
files with some other configuration / GCC version, they can always be
added there.

I reused the same test inputs in auto-libm-test-in as for
non-narrowing sqrt rather than adding extra or separate inputs for
narrowing sqrt.  The tests in libm-test-narrow-sqrt.inc also follow
those for non-narrowing sqrt.

466f2be6c0 Add generic C.UTF-8 locale (Bug 17318)
We add a new C.UTF-8 locale. This locale is not builtin to glibc, but
is provided as a distinct locale. The locale provides full support for
UTF-8 and this includes full code point sorting via STRCMP-based
collation (strcmp or wcscmp).

The collation uses a new keyword 'codepoint_collation' which drops all
collation rules and generates an empty zero rules collation to enable
STRCMP usage in collation. This ensures that we get full code point
sorting for C.UTF-8 with a minimal 1406 bytes of overhead (LC_COLLATE
structure information and ASCII collating tables).

The new locale is added to SUPPORTED. Minimal test data for specific
code points (minus those not supported by collate-test) is provided in
C.UTF-8.in, and this verifies code point sorting is working reasonably
across the range. The locale was tested manually with the full set of
code points without failure.

The locale is harmonized with locales already shipping in various
downstream distributions. A new tst-iconv9 test is added which verifies
the C.UTF-8 locale is generally usable.

Testing for fnmatch, regexec, and recomp is provided by extending
bug-regex1, bugregex19, bug-regex4, bug-regex6, transbug, tst-fnmatch,
tst-regcomp-truncated, and tst-regex to use C.UTF-8.

Tested on x86_64 or i686 without regression.

1e5a5866cb Remove malloc hooks [BZ #23328]
Make malloc hooks symbols compat-only so that new applications cannot
link against them and remove the declarations from the API.  Also
remove the unused malloc-hooks.h.

Finally, mark all symbols in libc_malloc_debug.so as compat so that
the library cannot be linked against.

Add a note about the deprecation in NEWS.

0552fd2c7d Move malloc_{g,s}et_state to libc_malloc_debug
These deprecated functions are only safe to call from
__malloc_initialize_hook and as a result, are not useful in the
general case.  Move the implementations to libc_malloc_debug so that
existing binaries that need it will now have to preload the debug DSO
to work correctly.

This also allows simplification of the core malloc implementation by
dropping all the undumping support code that was added to make
malloc_set_state work.

One known breakage is that of ancient emacs binaries that depend on
this.  They will now crash when running with this libc.  With
LD_BIND_NOW=1, it will terminate immediately because of not being able
to find malloc_set_state but with lazy binding it will crash in
unpredictable ways.  It will need a preloaded libc_malloc_debug.so so
that its initialization hook is executed to allow its malloc
implementation to work properly.

2d2d9f2b48 Move malloc hooks into a compat DSO
Remove all malloc hook uses from core malloc functions and move it
into a new library libc_malloc_debug.so.  With this, the hooks now no
longer have any effect on the core library.

libc_malloc_debug.so is a malloc interposer that needs to be preloaded
to get hooks functionality back so that the debugging features that
depend on the hooks, i.e. malloc-check, mcheck and mtrace work again.
Without the preloaded DSO these debugging features will be nops.
These features will be ported away from hooks in subsequent patches.

Similarly, legacy applications that need hooks functionality need to
preload libc_malloc_debug.so.

The symbols exported by libc_malloc_debug.so are maintained at exactly
the same version as libc.so.

Finally, static binaries will no longer be able to use malloc
debugging features since they cannot preload the debugging DSO.

248dbed118 resolv: Deprecate legacy interfaces in libresolv
Debugging interfaces: p_*, fp_*, and sym_* could conceivably be
used to produce debug out, but these functions have not been
updated to parse more resource records, so they are not very useful
today.  Likewise for ns_sprintrr and ns_sprintrrf.  ns_format_ttl and
ns_parse_ttl are related to these.

Internal implementation details: res_isourserver is probably only
useful in the implementation of a stub resolver, and so is
res_nameinquery.

Unclear semantics and bad performance: ns_samedomain, ns_subdomain,
ns_makecanon, ns_samename do textual converions & copies instead of
checking equivalence of the wire format.

inet_neta cannot handle IPv6 addresses.

res_hostalias has been superseded by getaddrinfo with AI_CANONNAME.
hostalias is not thread-safe.

Some functions have int as size arguments instead of size_t, so they
do not follow current coding practices.  However, dn_expand and
b64_ntop are somewhat widely used (to name just two examples), so
deprecating them seems problematic.

882d6e17bc posix: Add posix_spawn_file_actions_addclosefrom_np
This patch adds a way to close a range of file descriptors on
posix_spawn as a new file action.  The API is similar to the one
provided by Solaris 11 [1], where the file action causes the all open
file descriptors greater than or equal to input on to be closed when
the new process is spawned.

The function posix_spawn_file_actions_addclosefrom_np is safe to be
implemented by iterating over /proc/self/fd, since the Linux spawni.c
helper process does not use CLONE_FILES, so its has own file descriptor
table and any failure (in /proc operation) aborts the process creation
and returns an error to the caller.

I am aware that this file action might be redundant to the current
approach of POSIX in promoting O_CLOEXEC in more interfaces. However
O_CLOEXEC is still not the default and for some specific usages, the
caller needs to close all possible file descriptors to avoid them
leaking.  Some examples are CPython (discussed in BZ#10353) and OpenJDK
jspawnhelper [2] (where OpenJDK spawns a helper process to exactly
closes all file descriptors).  Most likely any environment which calls
functions that might open file descriptor under the hood and aim to use
posix_spawn might face the same requirement.

607449506f io: Add closefrom [BZ #10353]
The function closes all open file descriptors greater than or equal to
input argument.  Negative values are clamped to 0, i.e, it will close
all file descriptors.

As indicated by the bug report, this is a common symbol provided by
different systems (Solaris, OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD) and, although
its has inherent issues with not taking in consideration internal libc
file descriptors (such as syslog), this is also a common feature used
in multiple projects [1][2][3][4][5].

The Linux fallback implementation iterates over /proc and close all
file descriptors sequentially.  Although it was raised the questioning
whether getdents on /proc/self/fd might return disjointed entries
when file descriptor are closed; it does not seems the case on my
testing on multiple kernel (v4.18, v5.4, v5.9) and the same strategy
is used on different projects [1][2][3][5].

Also, the interface is set a fail-safe meaning that a failure in the
fallback results in a process abort.

c32c868ab8 posix: Add _Fork [BZ #4737]
Austin Group issue 62 [1] dropped the async-signal-safe requirement
for fork and provided a async-signal-safe _Fork replacement that
does not run the atfork handlers.  It will be included in the next
POSIX standard.

It allow to close a long standing issue to make fork AS-safe (BZ#4737).
As indicated on the bug, besides the internal lock for the atfork
handlers itself; there is no guarantee that the handlers itself will
not introduce more AS-safe issues.

The idea is synchronize fork with the required internal locks to allow
children in multithread processes to use mostly of standard function
(even though POSIX states only AS-safe function should be used).  On
signal handles, _Fork should be used intead and only AS-safe functions
should be used.

For testing, the new tst-_Fork only check basic usage.  I also added
a new tst-mallocfork3 which uses the same strategy to check for
deadlock of tst-mallocfork2 but using threads instead of subprocesses
(and it does deadlock if it replaces _Fork with fork).

47f24c21ee y2038: Add support for 64-bit time on legacy ABIs
A new build flag, _TIME_BITS, enables the usage of the newer 64-bit
time symbols for legacy ABI (where 32-bit time_t is default).  The 64
bit time support is only enabled if LFS (_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64) is
also used.

Different than LFS support, the y2038 symbols are added only for the
required ABIs (armhf, csky, hppa, i386, m68k, microblaze, mips32,
mips64-n32, nios2, powerpc32, sparc32, s390-32, and sh).  The ABIs with
64-bit time support are unchanged, both for symbol and types
redirection.

On Linux the full 64-bit time support requires a minimum of kernel
version v5.1.  Otherwise, the 32-bit fallbacks are used and might
results in error with overflow return code (EOVERFLOW).

The i686-gnu does not yet support 64-bit time.

ebae2f5a6f Add build option to disable usage of scv on powerpc
Commit 68ab82f566 added support for the scv
syscall ABI on powerpc.  Since then systems that have kernel and processor
support started using scv.  However adding the proper support for a new syscall
ABI requires changes to several other projects (e.g. qemu, valgrind, strace,
kernel), which are gradually receiving support.

Meanwhile, having a way to disable scv on glibc at build time can be useful for
distros that may encounter conflicts with projects that still do not support the
scv ABI, buying time until proper support is added.

This commit adds a --disable-scv option that disables scv support and uses sc
for all syscalls, like before commit 68ab82f566.

858045ad1c Update floating-point feature test macro handling for C2X
ISO C2X has made some changes to the handling of feature test macros
related to features from the floating-point TSes, and to exactly what
such features are present in what headers, that require corresponding
changes in glibc.

* For the few features that were controlled by
  __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_BFP_EXT__ (and the corresponding DFP macro) in
  C2X, there is now instead a new feature test macro
  __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_EXT__ covering both binary and decimal FP.
  This controls CR_DECIMAL_DIG in <float.h> (provided by GCC; I
  implemented support for the new feature test macro for GCC 11) and
  the totalorder and payload functions in <math.h>.  C2X no longer
  says anything about __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_BFP_EXT__ (so it's
  appropriate for that macro to continue to enable exactly the
  features from TS 18661-1).

* The SNAN macros for each floating-point type have moved to <float.h>
  (and been renamed in the process).  Thus, the copies in <math.h>
  should only be defined for __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_BFP_EXT__, not for
  C2X.

* The fmaxmag and fminmag functions have been removed (replaced by new
  functions for the new min/max operations in IEEE 754-2019).  Thus
  those should also only be declared for
  __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_BFP_EXT__.

* The _FloatN / _FloatNx handling for the last two points in glibc is
  trickier, since __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_TYPES_EXT__ is still in C2X
  (the integration of TS 18661-3 as an Annex, that is, which hasn't
  yet been merged into the C standard git repository but has been
  accepted by WG14), so C2X with that macro should not declare some
  things that are declared for older standards with that macro.  The
  approach taken here is to provide the declarations (when
  __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_TYPES_EXT__ is enabled) only when (defined
  __USE_GNU || !__GLIBC_USE (ISOC2X)), so if C2X features are enabled
  then those declarations (that are only in TS 18661-3 and not in C2X)
  will only be provided if _GNU_SOURCE is defined as well.  Thus
  _GNU_SOURCE remains a superset of the TS features as well as of C2X.

Some other somewhat related changes in C2X are not addressed here.
There's an open proposal not to include the fmin and fmax functions
for the _FloatN / _FloatNx types, given the new min/max operations,
which could be handled like the previous point if adopted.  And the
fromfp functions have been changed to return a result in floating type
rather than intmax_t / uintmax_t; my inclination there is to treat
that like that change of totalorder type (new symbol versions etc. for
the ABI change; old versions become compat symbols and are no longer
supported as an API).

Tested for x86_64 and x86.

timespec_get, with functionality similar to that of POSIX clock_getres

Implement this function for glibc, similarly to the implementation of
timespec_get.

This includes a basic test like that of timespec_get, but no
documentation in the manual, given that TIME_UTC and timespec_get
aren't documented in the manual at all.  The handling of 64-bit time
follows that in timespec_get; people maintaining patch series for
64-bit time will need to update them accordingly (to export
__timespec_getres64, redirect calls in time.h and run the test for
_TIME_BITS=64).

differs) with build-many-glibcs.py.

e9fed2438a linux: Require /dev/shm as the shared memory file system
Previously, glibc would pick an arbitrary tmpfs file system from
/proc/mounts if /dev/shm was not available.  This could lead to
an unsuitable file system being picked for the backing storage for
shm_open, sem_open, and related functions.

This patch introduces a new function, __shm_get_name, which builds
the file name under the appropriate (now hard-coded) directory.  It is
called from the various shm_* and sem_* function.  Unlike the
SHM_GET_NAME macro it replaces, the callers handle the return values
and errno updates.  shm-directory.c is moved directly into the posix
subdirectory because it can be implemented directly using POSIX
functionality.  It resides in libc because it is needed by both
librt and nptl/htl.

In the sem_open implementation, tmpfname is initialized directly
from a string constant.  This happens to remove one alloca call.

of a single signal whose handler is an empty function, and _SC_SIGSTKSZ
which is the suggested minimum number of bytes of stack space required
for a signal stack.

If AT_MINSIGSTKSZ isn't available, sysconf (_SC_MINSIGSTKSZ) returns
MINSIGSTKSZ.  On Linux/x86 with XSAVE, the signal frame used by kernel
is composed of the following areas and laid out as:

 ------------------------------
 | alignment padding          |
 ------------------------------
 | xsave buffer               |
 ------------------------------
 | fsave header (32-bit only) |
 ------------------------------
 | siginfo + ucontext         |
 ------------------------------

Compute AT_MINSIGSTKSZ value as size of xsave buffer + size of fsave
header (32-bit only) + size of siginfo and ucontext + alignment padding.

If _SC_SIGSTKSZ_SOURCE or _GNU_SOURCE are defined, MINSIGSTKSZ and SIGSTKSZ
are redefined as

/* Default stack size for a signal handler: sysconf (SC_SIGSTKSZ).  */
 # undef SIGSTKSZ
 # define SIGSTKSZ sysconf (_SC_SIGSTKSZ)

/* Minimum stack size for a signal handler: SIGSTKSZ.  */
 # undef MINSIGSTKSZ
 # define MINSIGSTKSZ SIGSTKSZ

Compilation will fail if the source assumes constant MINSIGSTKSZ or
SIGSTKSZ.

The reason for not simply increasing the kernel's MINSIGSTKSZ #define
(apart from the fact that it is rarely used, due to glibc's shadowing
definitions) was that userspace binaries will have baked in the old
value of the constant and may be making assumptions about it.

For example, the type (char [MINSIGSTKSZ]) changes if this #define
changes.  This could be a problem if an newly built library tries to
memcpy() or dump such an object defined by and old binary.
Bounds-checking and the stack sizes passed to things like sigaltstack()
and makecontext() could similarly go wrong.

I've updated copyright dates in glibc for 2021.  This is the patch for
the changes not generated by scripts/update-copyrights and subsequent
build / regeneration of generated files.  As well as the usual annual
updates, mainly dates in --version output (minus csu/version.c which
previously had to be handled manually but is now successfully updated
by update-copyrights), there is a small change to the copyright notice
in NEWS which should let NEWS get updated automatically next year.

Please remember to include 2021 in the dates for any new files added
in future (which means updating any existing uncommitted patches you
have that add new files to use the new copyright dates in them).

c43c579612 Introduce _FORTIFY_SOURCE=3
Introduce a new _FORTIFY_SOURCE level of 3 to enable additional
fortifications that may have a noticeable performance impact, allowing
more fortification coverage at the cost of some performance.

With llvm 9.0 or later, this will replace the use of
__builtin_object_size with __builtin_dynamic_object_size.

__builtin_dynamic_object_size
-----------------------------

__builtin_dynamic_object_size is an LLVM builtin that is similar to
__builtin_object_size.  In addition to what __builtin_object_size
does, i.e. replace the builtin call with a constant object size,
__builtin_dynamic_object_size will replace the call site with an
expression that evaluates to the object size, thus expanding its
applicability.  In practice, __builtin_dynamic_object_size evaluates
these expressions through malloc/calloc calls that it can associate
with the object being evaluated.

A simple motivating example is below; -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 would miss
this and emit memcpy, but -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 with the help of
__builtin_dynamic_object_size is able to emit __memcpy_chk with the
allocation size expression passed into the function:

void *copy_obj (const void *src, size_t alloc, size_t copysize)
{
  void *obj = malloc (alloc);
  memcpy (obj, src, copysize);
  return obj;
}

Limitations
-----------

If the object was allocated elsewhere that the compiler cannot see, or
if it was allocated in the function with a function that the compiler
does not recognize as an allocator then __builtin_dynamic_object_size
also returns -1.

Further, the expression used to compute object size may be non-trivial
and may potentially incur a noticeable performance impact.  These
fortifications are hence enabled at a new _FORTIFY_SOURCE level to
allow developers to make a choice on the tradeoff according to their
environment.

If glibc is build with gcc 6.5.0:

f88242af19 S390: Derive float_t from FLT_EVAL_METHOD
float_t supposedly represents the type that is used to evaluate float
expressions internally. While the isa supports single-precision float
operations, the port of glibc to s390 incorrectly deferred to the
generic definitions which, back then, tied float_t to double. gcc by
default evaluates float in single precision, so that scenario violates
the C standard (sections 5.2.4.2.2 and 7.12 in C11/C17). With
-fexcess-precision=standard, gcc evaluates float in double precision,
which aligns with the standard yet at the cost of added conversion
instructions.

With this patch, we drop the s390-specific definition of float_t and
defer to the default behavior, which aligns float_t with the
compiler-defined FLT_EVAL_METHOD in a standard-compliant way.

Checked on s390x-linux-gnu with 31-bit and 64-bit builds.

9a99c68214 iconv: Accept redundant shift sequences in IBM1364 [BZ #26224]
The IBM1364, IBM1371, IBM1388, IBM1390 and IBM1399 character sets
share converter logic (iconvdata/ibm1364.c) which would reject
redundant shift sequences when processing input in these character
sets.  This led to a hang in the iconv program (CVE-2020-27618).

This commit adjusts the converter to ignore redundant shift sequences
and adds test cases for iconv_prog hangs that would be triggered upon
their rejection.  This brings the implementation in line with other
converters that also ignore redundant shift sequences (e.g. IBM930
etc., fixed in commit 692de4b396).

ab5ee31e14 Move vtimes to a compatibility symbol
I couldn't pinpoint which standard has added it, but no other POSIX
system supports it and/or no longer provide it.  The 'struct vtimes'
also has a lot of drawbacks due its limited internal type size.

I couldn't also see find any project that actually uses this symbol,
either in some dignostic way (such as sanitizer).  So I think it should
be safer to just move to compat symbol, instead of deprecated.  The
idea it to avoid new ports to export such broken interface (riscv32
for instance).

between manually passing the flags and using the configure

libtirpc is mature enough, librpcsvc and rpcgen are provided in
rpcsvc-proto project.

NOTE: libnsl code depends on Sun RPC (installed libnsl headers use
installed Sun RPC headers), thus --enable-obsolete-rpc was a dependency
for --enable-obsolete-nsl (removed in a previous commit).
