string: Add libc_hidden_proto for memrchr
building glibc on s390x with --disable-multi-arch fails if only
the C-variant of strchrnul / memrchr is used. This is the case
if gcc uses -march < z13.
The build fails with:
../sysdeps/s390/strchrnul-c.c:28:49: error: ‘__strchrnul_c’ undeclared here (not in a function); did you mean ‘__strchrnul’?
28 | __hidden_ver1 (__strchrnul_c, __GI___strchrnul, __strchrnul_c);
With --disable-multi-arch, __strchrnul_c is not available as string/strchrnul.c
is just included without defining STRCHRNUL and thus we also don't have to create
the internal hidden symbol.

Simplify the advisory format by dropping the -Backport tags and instead
stick to using just the -Commit tags. To identify backports, put a
substring of git-describe into the release version in the brackets next
to the commit ref. This way, it not only identifies that the fix (or
regression) is on the release/2.YY/master branch, it also disambiguates
regressions/fixes in the branch from those in the tarball.
Add a README to make it easier for consumers to understand the format.
Additionally, the Release wiki needs to be updated to inform the release
manager to:
1. Generate a NEWS snipped from the advisories directory
AND
2. on release/2.YY/master, replace the advisories directory with a text
file pointing to the advisories directory in master so that we don't
have to update multiple locations.

__vsyslog_internal calculated a buffer size by adding two integers, but
did not first check if the addition would overflow. This commit fixes

__vsyslog_internal used the return value of snprintf/vsnprintf to
calculate buffer sizes for memory allocation. If these functions (for
any reason) failed and returned -1, the resulting buffer would be too
small to hold output. This commit fixes that.
All snprintf/vsnprintf calls are checked for negative return values and
the function silently returns upon encountering them.

__vsyslog_internal did not handle a case where printing a SYSLOG_HEADER
containing a long program name failed to update the required buffer
size, leading to the allocation and overflow of a too-small buffer on
the heap. This commit fixes that. It also adds a new regression test
that uses glibc.malloc.check.

In qsort_r we allocate a buffer sized QSORT_STACK_SIZE (1024) on stack
and we intend to use it if all elements can fit into it. But there is a
typo:
if (total_size < sizeof buf)
buf = tmp;
else
/* allocate a buffer on heap and use it ... */
Here "buf" is a pointer, thus sizeof buf is just 4 or 8, instead of
1024. There is also a minor issue that we should use "<=" instead of
"<".
This bug is detected debugging some strange heap corruption running the
Ruby-3.3.0 test suite (on an experimental Linux From Scratch build using
Binutils-2.41.90 and Glibc trunk, and also Fedora Rawhide [1]). It
seems Ruby is doing some wild "optimization" by jumping into somewhere
in qsort_r instead of calling it normally, resulting in a double free of
buf if we allocate it on heap. The issue can be reproduced
deterministically with:
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libc_malloc_debug.so MALLOC_CHECK_=3 \
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./ruby test/runner.rb test/ruby/test_enum.rb
in Ruby-3.3.0 tree after building it. This change would hide the issue
for Ruby, but Ruby is likely still buggy (if using this "optimization"
sorting larger arrays).

It turns out that the replacement of datetime.datetime.utcnow(), for a
warning produced early in running build-many-glibcs.py with Python
3.12, (a) wasn't complete (there were other uses elsewhere in the
script also needing updating) and (b) broke reading of build-time from
build-state.json, because an aware datetime was written out including
+00:00 for the timezone, which was not expected by the strptime call.
Fix the first by making the change to
datetime.datetime.now(datetime.timezone.utc) for all the remaining
utcnow() calls. Fix the second by using strftime with an explicit
format instead of just str() when formatting build times for
build-state.json and and email subjects, and then setting the timezone
explicitly when reading from build-state.json. (Other uses, in
particular messages output by the bot, continue to use str() as the
precise format should not matter in those cases; it shouldn't actually
matter for email subjects either but it seems a good idea to keep
those short.)
Tested with a bot-cycle run and checking the format of times in
build-state.json afterwards.

The functions were previously written in C, but were not compiled
with unwind information. The ENTRY/END macros includes .cfi_startproc
and .cfi_endproc which adds unwind information. This caused the
tests cleanup-8 and cleanup-10 in the GCC testsuite to fail.
This patch adds a version of the ENTRY/END macros without the
CFI instructions that can be used instead.
sigaction registers a restorer address that is located two instructions
before the stub function. This patch adds a two instruction padding to
avoid that the unwinder accesses the unwind information from the function
that the linker has placed right before it in memory. This fixes an issue
with pthread_cancel that caused tst-mutex8-static (and other tests) to fail.

On LEON, if the stfsr instruction is immediately following a floating-point
operation instruction in a running program, with no other instruction in
between the two, the stfsr might behave as if the order was reversed
between the two instructions and the stfsr occurred before the
floating-point operation.
Add a nop instruction before the stfsr to prevent this from happening.

Resolves: BZ # 31239
The correct abbreviated month names were apparently given in the comment above `abmon`.
But the value of `abmon` was apparently just copied from the value of `mon` and this
mistake was hard to see because code point notation <Uxxxx> was used. After converting
to UTF-8 it was obvious that there was apparently a copy and paste mistake.
The mergesort removal from qsort implementation (commit 03bf8357e8)
had the side-effect of making sorting nonstable. Although neither
POSIX nor C standard specify that qsort should be stable, it seems
that it has become an instance of Hyrum's law where multiple programs
expect it.
Also, the resulting introsort implementation is not faster than
the previous mergesort (which makes the change even less appealing).
This patch restores the previous mergesort implementation, with the
exception of machinery that checks the resulting allocation against
the _SC_PHYS_PAGES (it only adds complexity and the heuristic not
always make sense depending on the system configuration and load).
The alloca usage was replaced with a fixed-size buffer.
For the fallback mechanism, the implementation uses heapsort. It is
simpler than quicksort, and it does not suffer from adversarial
inputs. With memory overcommit, it should be rarely triggered.
The drawback is mergesort requires O(n) extra space, and since it is
allocated with malloc the function is AS-signal-unsafe. It should be
feasible to change it to use mmap, although I am not sure how urgent
it is. The heapsort is also nonstable, so programs that require a
stable sort would still be subject to this latent issue.
The tst-qsort5 is removed since it will not create quicksort adversarial
inputs with the current qsort_r implementation.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and aarch64-linux-gnu.
