Given current Linux kernel version requirements, we can assume the
presence of the eventfd2 syscall. This means that __ASSUME_EVENTFD2
can be removed, and a syscalls.list entry suffices for eventfd instead
of needing a .c file. This patch implements those changes.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (not that that means much, given the lack of
testsuite coverage for eventfd).

When building on i686, x86_64, and arm, and with NDEBUG, or --with-cpu
there are various variables and functions which are unused based on
these settings.
This patch marks all such variables with __attribute__((unused)) to
avoid the compiler warnings when building with the aformentioned
options.
With current kernel version requirements, the ppoll Linux syscall can
be assumed to be present on all architectures; this patch removes the
__ASSUME_PPOLL macro and conditionals on it and on whether __NR_ppoll
is defined. (Note that the same can't yet be done for pselect,
because MicroBlaze only wired that up in the syscall table in 3.15.)
Tested for x86_64 and x86 that installed stripped shared libraries are
unchanged by the patch.

[!__ASSUME_PPOLL]: Remove conditional code.
This patch adjusts the defaults for kernel-features.h macros relating
to availability of accept4, recvmmsg and sendmmsg. It is not intended
to affect which macros end up getting defined in any configuration.
At present, all architectures with syscalls for those functions need
to define __ASSUME_*_SYSCALL macros; in particular, any new
architecture needs its own kernel-features.h file for that purpose,
though it may not otherwise need such a header. Those macros are then
used together with __ASSUME_SOCKETCALL to define macros for whether
the functions in question are available.
This patch changes the defaults so that the syscalls are assumed to be
available by default with recent-enough kernels, and it is the
responsibility of architecture headers to undefine the macros if they
are unavailable in supported kernels at least as recent as the version
where the architecture-independent functionality was introduced. The
__ASSUME_<function> macros are defaulted similarly instead of being
defined based on other macros (defining based on other macros would no
longer work because the #undefs appear after the generic header is
included), so where the syscall being unavailable means the function
is unavailable this means the architecture header has to undefine the
__ASSUME_<function> macro; this only affects __ASSUME_ACCEPT4 for
ia64, as other cases where the syscalls were added late enough to be
relevant with current kernel version requirements are all on
socketcall architectures.
As a consequence, the AArch64 and Nios II kernel-features.h header
files are removed, and others simplified. When the minimum kernel
version becomes 4.3 or later on all architectures, the syscalls in
question can just be assumed unconditionally, permitting further
simplification.
Tested for x86_64, x86 and powerpc (that installed shared libraries
are unchanged by the patch, and testsuite for x86_64 and x86).

index_* and bit_* macros are used to access cpuid and feature arrays o

In makecontext the FDE needs to be terminated before the return

The ldbl-128ibm implementation of nearbyintl uses logic that only
works in round-to-nearest mode. This contrasts with rintl, which
works in all rounding modes.
Now, arguably nearbyintl could simply be aliased to rintl, given that
spurious "inexact" is generally allowed for ldbl-128ibm, even for the
underlying arithmetic operations. But given that the only point of
nearbyintl is to avoid "inexact", this patch follows the more
conservative approach of adding conditionals to the rintl
implementation to make it suitable for use to implement nearbyintl,
then builds it for nearbyintl with USE_AS_NEARBYINTL defined. The
test test-nearbyint-except-2 shows up issues when traps on "inexact"
are enabled, which turn out to be problems with the powerpc
fenv_private.h implementation (two functions that should disable
exception traps potentially failing to do so in some cases); this
patch duly fixes that as well (I don't see any other existing cases
where this would be user-visible; there isn't much use of *_NOEX,
*hold* etc. in libm that requires exceptions to be discarded and not
trapped on).
Tested for powerpc.

The operand modifier %s on powerpc is an undocumented internal implementation
detail of GCC. Besides that, the GCC community wants to remove it. This patch
rewrites the expressions that use this modifier with logically equivalent
expressions that don't require it.
Explanation for the substitution:
The %s modifier takes an immediate operand and prints 32 less such immediate.
Thus, in the previous code, the expression resulted in:
32 - __builtin_ffs(e)
where e was guaranteed to have exactly a single bit set, by the following
expressions:
(e & (e-1) == 0) : e has at most one bit set.
(e != 0) : e is not zero, thus it has at least one bit set.
Since we guarantee that there is exactly only one bit set, the following
statement is true:
32 - __builtin_ffs(e) == __builtin_clz(e)
Thus, we can replace __builtin_ffs with __builtin_clz and remove the %s operand
modifier.
HWCAP-related code should had been updated when the 32 bits of HWCAP were
used. This patch updates the code in dl-procinfo.h to loop through all
the 32 bits in HWCAP and updates _dl_powerpc_cap_flags accordingly.
The ldbl-128ibm implementation of remainderl has logic resulting in
incorrect tests for equality of the absolute values of the arguments
in the case of zero low parts. If the low parts are both zero but
with different signs, this can wrongly cause equal arguments to be
treated as different, resulting in turn in incorrect signs of zero
result in nondefault rounding modes arising from the subtractions done
when the arguments are not equal.
This patch fixes the logic to convert -0 low parts into +0 before the
comparison (remquo already has separate logic to deal with signs of
zero results, so doesn't need such a change). Tests are added for
remainderl and remquol similar to that for fmodl, and based on a
refactoring of it, since the bug depends on low parts which should not
be relied upon in tests not setting the representation explicitly
(although in fact the bug shows up in test-ldouble with current GCC).
Tested for powerpc.

This patch implements a new posix_spawn{p} implementation for Linux. The main
difference is it uses the clone syscall directly with CLONE_VM and CLONE_VFORK
flags and a direct allocated stack. The new stack and start function solves
most the vfork limitation (possible parent clobber due stack spilling). The
remaning issue are related to signal handling:
1. That no signal handlers must run in child context, to avoid corrupt
parent's state.
2. Child must synchronize with parent to enforce stack deallocation and
to possible return execv issues.
The first one is solved by blocking all signals in child, even NPTL-internal
ones (SIGCANCEL and SIGSETXID). The second issue is done by a stack allocation
in parent and a synchronization with using a pipe or waitpid (in case or error).
The pipe has the advantage of allowing the child signal an exec error (checked
with new tst-spawn2 test).
There is an inherent race condition in pipe2 usage for architectures that do not
support the syscall directly. In such cases the a pipe plus fctnl is used
instead and it may lead to file descriptor leak in parent (as decribed by fcntl
documentation).
The child process stack is allocate with a mmap with MAP_STACK flag using
default architecture stack size. Although it is slower than use a stack buffer
from parent, it allows some slack for the compatibility code to run scripts
with no shebang (which may use a buffer with size depending of argument list
count).
Performance should be similar to the vfork default posix implementation and
way faster than fork path (vfork on mostly linux ports are basically
clone with CLONE_VM plus CLONE_VFORK). The only difference is the syscalls
required for the stack allocation/deallocation.
It fixes BZ#10354, BZ#14750, and BZ#18433.
Tested on i386, x86_64, powerpc64le, and aarch64.

In <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-01/msg00885.html> I
proposed a minimum Linux kernel version of 3.2 for glibc 2.24, since
Linux 2.6.32 has reached EOL.
In the discussion in February, some concerns were expressed about
compatibility with OpenVZ containers. It's not clear that these are
real issues, given OpenVZ backporting kernel features and faking the
kernel version for guest software, as discussed in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-02/msg00278.html>. It's
also not clear that supporting running GNU/Linux distributions from
late 2016 (at the earliest) on a kernel series from 2009 is a sensible
expectation. However, as an interim step, this patch increases the
requirement everywhere except x86 / x86_64 (since the controversy was
only about those architectures); the special caveats and settings can
easily be removed later when we're ready to increase the requirements
on x86 / x86_64 (and if someone would like to raise the issue on LWN
as suggested in the previous discussion, that would be welcome). 3.2
kernel headers are required everywhere by this patch.
(x32 already requires 3.4 or later, so is unaffected by this patch.)
As usual for such a change, this patch only changes the configure
scripts and associated documentation. The intent is to follow up with
removal of dead __LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION conditionals. Each __ASSUME_*
or other macro that becomes dead can then be removed independently.

Due to GCC bug:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58066
__tls_get_addr may be called with 8-byte stack alignment. Although
this bug has been fixed in GCC 4.9.4, 5.3 and 6, we can't assume
that stack will be always aligned at 16 bytes. Since SSE optimized
memory/string functions with aligned SSE register load and store are
used in the dynamic linker, we must set DL_RUNTIME_UNALIGNED_VEC_SIZE
to 8 so that _dl_runtime_resolve_sse will align the stack before
calling _dl_fixup:

The ldbl-128ibm implementation of nextafterl / nexttowardl returns -0
in FE_DOWNWARD mode when taking the next value below the least
positive subnormal, when it should return +0. This patch fixes it to
check explicitly for this case.
Tested for powerpc.
[BZ #19678]
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_nextafterl.c (__nextafterl):
Ensure +0.0 is returned when taking the next value below the least
positive value.
The ldbl-128ibm implementation of powl has some problems in the case
of overflow or underflow, which are mainly visible in non-default
rounding modes.
* When overflow or underflow is detected early, the correct sign of an
overflowing or underflowing result is not allowed for. This is
mostly hidden in the default rounding mode by the errno-setting
wrappers recomputing the result (except in non-default
error-handling modes such as -lieee), but visible in other rounding
modes where a result that is not zero or infinity causes the
wrappers not to do the recomputation.
* The final scaling is done before the sign is incorporated in the
result, but should be done afterwards for correct overflowing and
underflowing results in directed rounding modes.
This patch fixes those problems. Tested for powerpc.
[BZ #19674]
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/e_powl.c (__ieee754_powl): Include
sign in overflowing and underflowing results when overflow or
underflow is detected early. Include sign in result before rather
than after scaling.
The ldbl-128ibm implementations of remainderl and remquol have logic
resulting in incorrect tests for equality of the absolute values of
the arguments. Equality is tested based on the integer
representations of the high and low parts, with the sign bit masked
off the high part - but when this changes the sign of the high part,
the sign of the low part needs to be changed as well, and failure to
do this means arguments are wrongly treated as equal when they are
not.
This patch fixes the logic to adjust signs of low parts as needed.
Tested for powerpc.
[BZ #19603]
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/e_remainderl.c
(__ieee754_remainderl): Adjust sign of integer version of low part
when taking absolute value of high part.
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_remquol.c (__remquol): Likewise.
* math/libm-test.inc (remainder_test_data): Add another test.
(remquo_test_data): Likewise.
The ldbl-128ibm implementation of fmodl has logic to detect when the
first argument has absolute value less than or equal to the second.
This logic is only correct for nonzero low parts; if the high parts
are equal and the low parts are zero, then the signs of the low parts
(which have no semantic effect on the value of the long double number)
can result in equal values being wrongly treated as unequal, and an
incorrect result being returned from fmodl. This patch fixes this by
checking for the case of zero low parts.
Although this does show up in tests from libm-test.inc (both tests of
fmodl, and, indirectly, of remainderl / dreml), the dependence on
non-semantic zero low parts means that test shouldn't be expected to
reproduce it reliably; thus, this patch adds a standalone test that
sets up affected values using unions.
Tested for powerpc.
[BZ #19602]
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/e_fmodl.c (__ieee754_fmodl): Handle
equal high parts and both low parts zero specially.
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/test-fmodl-ldbl-128ibm.c: New test.
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/Makefile [$(subdir) = math] (tests):
Add test-fmodl-ldbl-128ibm.
The ldbl-128ibm implementation of fmodl has completely bogus logic for
subnormal results (in this context, that means results for which the
result is in the subnormal range for double, not results with absolute
value below LDBL_MIN), based on code used for ldbl-128 that is correct
in that case but incorrect in the ldbl-128ibm use. This patch fixes
it to convert the mantissa into the correct form expected by
ldbl_insert_mantissa, removing the other cases of the code that were
incorrect and in one case unreachable for ldbl-128ibm. A correct
exponent value is then passed to ldbl_insert_mantissa to reflect the
shifted result.
Tested for powerpc.
[BZ #19595]
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/e_fmodl.c (__ieee754_fmodl): Use
common logic for all cases of shifting subnormal results. Do not
insert sign bit in shifted mantissa. Always pass -1023 as biased
exponent to ldbl_insert_mantissa in subnormal case.
The ldbl-128ibm implementation of roundl is only correct in
round-to-nearest mode (in other modes, there are incorrect results and
overflow exceptions in some cases). This patch reimplements it along
the lines used for floorl, ceill and truncl, using __round on the high
part, and on the low part if the high part is an integer, and then
adjusting in the cases where this is incorrect.
Tested for powerpc.
[BZ #19594]
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_roundl.c (__roundl): Use __round
on high and low parts then adjust result and use
ldbl_canonicalize_int if needed.
The ldbl-128ibm implementation of truncl is only correct in
round-to-nearest mode (in other modes, there are incorrect results and
overflow exceptions in some cases). It is also unnecessarily
complicated, rounding both high and low parts to the nearest integer
and then adjusting for the semantics of trunc, when it seems more
natural to take the truncation of the high part (__trunc optimized
inline versions can be used), and the floor or ceiling of the low part
(depending on the sign of the high part) if the high part is an
integer, as was done for floorl and ceill. This patch makes it use
that simpler approach.
Tested for powerpc.
[BZ #19593]
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_truncl.c (__truncl): Use __trunc
on high part and __floor or __ceil on low part then use
ldbl_canonicalize_int if needed.
The ldbl-128ibm implementation of ceill is only correct in
round-to-nearest mode (in other modes, there are incorrect results and
overflow exceptions in some cases). It is also unnecessarily
complicated, rounding both high and low parts to the nearest integer
and then adjusting for the semantics of ceil, when it seems more
natural to take the ceiling of the high part (__ceil optimized inline
versions can be used), and that of the low part if the high part is an
integer, as was done for floorl. This patch makes it use that simpler
approach.
Tested for powerpc.
[BZ #19592]
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_ceill.c (__ceill): Use __ceil on
high and low parts then use ldbl_canonicalize_int if needed.
