The EI_ABIVERSION field of the ELF header in executables and shared
libraries can be bumped to indicate the minimum ABI requirement on the
dynamic linker. However, EI_ABIVERSION in executables isn't checked by
the Linux kernel ELF loader nor the existing dynamic linker. Executables
will crash mysteriously if the dynamic linker doesn't support the ABI
features required by the EI_ABIVERSION field. The dynamic linker should
be changed to check EI_ABIVERSION in executables.
Add a glibc version, GLIBC_ABI_DT_RELR, to indicate DT_RELR support so
that the existing dynamic linkers will issue an error on executables with
GLIBC_ABI_DT_RELR dependency. When there is a DT_VERNEED entry with
libc.so on DT_NEEDED, issue an error if there is a DT_RELR entry without
GLIBC_ABI_DT_RELR dependency.
Support __placeholder_only_for_empty_version_map as the placeholder symbol
used only for empty version map to generate GLIBC_ABI_DT_RELR without any
symbols.

I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,

sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't
know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not.

We stopped adding "Contributed by" or similar lines in sources in 2012
in favour of git logs and keeping the Contributors section of the
glibc manual up to date. Removing these lines makes the license
header a bit more consistent across files and also removes the
possibility of error in attribution when license blocks or files are
copied across since the contributed-by lines don't actually reflect
reality in those cases.
Move all "Contributed by" and similar lines (Written by, Test by,
etc.) into a new file CONTRIBUTED-BY to retain record of these
contributions. These contributors are also mentioned in
manual/contrib.texi, so we just maintain this additional record as a
courtesy to the earlier developers.
The following scripts were used to filter a list of files to edit in
place and to clean up the CONTRIBUTED-BY file respectively. These
were not added to the glibc sources because they're not expected to be
of any use in future given that this is a one time task:

Some targets have a GLIBC_2.0 baseline for libdl, while using
GLIBC_2.2 for libc. This means that the generated libc.map file
does not have any version nodes for GLIBC_2.0 or GLIBC_2.1. However,
moving symbols from libdl into libc needs such version nodes.
(Future symbol moves from librt will need this as well.)
This kludge is only necessary for symbols predating GLIBC_2.2 because
the affected targets use GLIBC_2.2 as the baseline for libc. Given
the small number and fixed set of affected architectures, no generic
mechanism is implemented, and instead the map file fragment is
hard-coded in scripts/versions.mk.
The compat_symbol macro already emits the appropriate version strings,
so no adjustments are needed there.

This requires that all exported symbol versions are listed in
Versions files. It results in more consistent behavior across
architectures because previously, symbols could be exported
via explicit versioned_symbol and compat_symbol macros if the
version node existed in some Versions file (without listing the
symbol), and it was not the base version for the library (which
already had the local: * directive).

This patch makes the glibc build generate an additional header
ldbl-compat-choose.h that defines LONG_DOUBLE_COMPAT_CHOOSE_* macros
for each libc and libm symbol, which select one or the other of their
arguments based on whether the symbol was added before a change to
long double != double.
The effect of this is that it is then possible to define a macro
maybe_long_double_symbol that automatically acts as either
long_double_symbol or weak_alias depending on when the symbol being
defined was added. This can be used when building long double
functions from type-generic templates. Thus, with this patch ldbl-opt
no longer needs special long double implementations of each new libm
function added using such a template, and the existing such
implementations are removed.
This is a step towards being able more generally to use common macros
to create all the aliases needed for a libm function, so reducing the
amount of special-case code needed in ldbl-opt and ldbl-64-128, and
facilitating subsequently adding *f32 / *f64 / *f128 / *f32x / *f64x
aliases to existing functions (where the set of aliases that a
function should have may depend on the architecture in various ways).
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py. Except for on
powerpc64le-linux-gnu, installed stripped shared libraries are
unchanged by the patch. powerpc64le-linux-gnu is the unique
configuration which used ldbl-opt from the start rather than adding a
new long double choice after originally only having had long double =
double. The effect of the patch there is that various cases that
previously used long_double_symbol unconditionally now use weak_alias
instead, so .os files contain e.g. a symbol cabsl instead of
cabsl@@GLIBC_2.17. The final dynamic symbols and versions in the
resulting shared libraries are unchanged (ABI tests pass), as is the
disassembly of the shared libraries, but the differences in the .os
files still result in different .gnu_hash contents in libm.so; the
differences are of no significance and logically using weak_alias is
what's most appropriate in those cases.

This patch arranges for the glibc build to generate a header
first-versions.h that defines macros for the earliest symbol version
in which each public symbol (GLIBC_[0-9]* symbol version, name only
uses C identifier characters) is available.
This is used in sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-opt/math-type-macros-double.h to
replace the manually defined LDOUBLE_*_libm_version macros for various
functions defined using type-generic templates, the purpose of which
is to use in LONG_DOUBLE_COMPAT tests "was this function originally
added before glibc supported long double != double on this platform?".
As discussed in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-12/msg00246.html>, I expect
this to be useful more generally in reducing the amount of
special-case code needed in ldbl-opt and ldbl-64-128.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py that installed stripped shared
libraries are unchanged by this patch.
