This patch tries to organize the implies files for ppc, since there are
a number of processors and most of them are compatible with each other
(backwards compatible).
Having in mind that we start the search for processor-specific files in
the sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux tree
(sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc[32|64]/[processor]/fpu to be
exact), we would like to grab any linux-specific code from that tree
prior to going through the other tree (sysdeps/powerpc/...).
For that, i removed the Implies files that were originally inside the
fpu directories and placed then in the non-fpu directories (still inside
the unix/sysv/linux tree). If no processor-specific/linux-specific files
could be found, we "imply" the other tree's (sysdeps/powerpc/...) fpu
directory for that specific processor AND also the non-fpu directory for
that same tree.
If, again, no processor-specific code is found, we read another Implies
file that will point to the most compatible processor that we should
grab code from, and so on, until we reach the power4 processor.
So, in summary, the Implies files will live inside these directories
now:
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc[32|64]/[processor]
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc[32|64]/[processor]
Practical example of the order we will use to pick power6-specific code
with the new structure.
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc[32|64]/power6/fpu ->
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc[32|64]/power6 ->
sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc[32|64]/power6/fpu ->
sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc[32|64]/power6 ->
sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc[32|64]/power5+/fpu ->
sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc[32|64]/power5+ ->
sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc[32|64]/power5/fpu ->
sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc[32|64]/power5 ->
sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc[32|64]/power4/fpu ->
sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc[32|64]/power4 (from here, it'll go to the
generic path as usual)
I've noticed that sync_file_range is a stub on ppc/ppc64.
The kernel on these arches provides sync_file_range2 syscall with swapped
parameters.
The following completely untested patch ought to fix this.
Due to alignment of 64bit parameters there is a dummy second argument.
But other than that the syscall arguments are directly mapped to the
function arguments.
As reported in http://bugzilla.redhat.com/533063 , preadv/pwritev prototypes
are wrong on 32-bit arches with -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 and as I've just
found, fallocate is wrong too.
The problem is that only off_t is remapped to the 64-bit type transparently,
__off_t is not.
Due to a pasto the fallocate64 interface, introduced in glibc 2.10,
isn't exported for 32-bit Linux platforms. It is too late for this
now so exported them for glibc 2.11.

[BZ #10118]
* Makeconfig (+asflags): New variable based upon ASFLAG or
asflags-cpu.
(ASFLAGS): Add override to set ASFLAGS to +asflags.
* config.make.in (asflags-cpu): Add variable based upon
@libc_cv_cc_submachine@ to propagate -mcpu=CPU from --with-cpu=CPU to
the assembler.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc32/power6/fpu/setcontext.S:
Remove unneeded file now that the assembler emits _ARCH_PWR6 and
recognizes power6 instruction set due to passing -mcpu=power6 from
--with-cpu=power6 when compiling .S files.

Likewise.

Likewise.

mknod.

into the POSIX standard.
