925733a913 manual: Rewrite the section on widths of integer types.
The manual contradicted itself by saying the number of bits in an
integer type needed to be computed, and then listing a number of
macros that later standards provided for exactly that.  The entire
section has been reworked to provide those macros first, while
preserving the documentation of CHAR_BIT and the associated examples
within that context.

	* manual/lang.texi
	(Computing the Width of an Integer Data Type): Rename section
	to "Width of an Integer Type".  Remove inaccurate statement
	regarding lack of C language facilities for determining width
	of integer types, and reorder content to improve flow and
	context of discussion.

4fcdfbfcf9 manual: Update @standards for [__]va_copy.
The ISO version in which va_copy was introduced is made explicit, and
__va_copy is given @standards.  The description is updated to be more
clear about the origins of each macro, and the reader is informed
these macros are now provided by the compiler (information previously
embedded in a Texinfo @comment).

	* lang.texi (va_copy): Change standard from ISO to C99.
	(__va_copy): Add standard and header annotation.
	Update description for clarity of origins and current use.

36ada5f681 aarch64: Optimized memcpy for Qualcomm Falkor processor
This is an optimized implementation of the memcpy routine that gives a
significant gain in performance for all sizes of copies on the
Qualcomm Falkor processor.  A detailed rationale of the implementation
is written in a comment in the patch.

This implementation improves time for copies up to 128 bytes by up to
15% and for larger copies by up to 35% in the glibc
microbenchmark. The memcpy-random benchmark sees improvements in all
sizes in the range of 13%-18%.

Here are the full numbers extracted from the glibc microbenchmark
using the commands:

../benchtests/scripts/compare_strings.py benchtests/bench-memcpy.out \
		../benchtests/scripts/benchout_strings.schema.json \
		-base=__memcpy_generic length align1 align2

../benchtests/scripts/compare_strings.py benchtests/bench-memcpy-large.out \
		../benchtests/scripts/benchout_strings.schema.json \
		-base=__memcpy_generic length align1 align2

../benchtests/scripts/compare_strings.py benchtests/bench-memcpy-random.out \
		../benchtests/scripts/benchout_strings.schema.json \
		-base=__memcpy_generic max-size

9995c839a0 manual: Document getcontext uc_stack value on Linux [BZ #759]
As decribed in BZ#759, Linux getcontext implementation on Linux does
differs from other SysV system about the returned uc_stack.  This is
true not only for i386, but for all the architecture I could actually
check (aarch64, arm, alpha, hppa, m68k, mips, mips64, mips64n32,
powerpc, powerpc64, powerpc64le, s390x, sh, sparc, sparc64, and x86).

And I think we should not change current behavior for some reasons:

1. POSIX 2008 removed this SySV interface for a good reason and changing
   this behavior adds nothing for current portable code.  POSIX 2001
   specification does states that stack should be saved [1] and current
   GLIBC code does in a arch-specific manner (inside the mcontext_t)
   which allows the setcontext to work correctly.

2. Changing this behavior would potentially require compat symbols and
   I see no gain in adding compat symbols for deprecated interfaces.

3. Also, for comment #2 in BZ#759, it is up to kernel do setup the contents
   for ucontext_t and currently it does not provide the stack information
   as well.  Trying to change it is also another fix that does not worth
   the possible gains.

Instead my proposal is to make it clear the current interface may differ
depending of the underlying operational system.

glibc documentation and close this bug as invalid.

d3675d957b manual: Refactor documentation of CHAR_BIT.
This single-@item @table is better defined with @deftypevr, since the
CHAR_BIT macro has @standards (being declared in a header), and @items
in @tables are not considered annotatable.  Using @deftypevr
automatically includes the macro in the Variable and Constant Macro
Index and ensures its inclusion the Summary of Library Facilities.
@deftypevr is used to record the type of the macro so that it also
appears in the Summary.

The description is updated to mention a later POSIX requirement that
this macro have the value 8.

This patch implements a requirement of binutils >= 2.25 (up from 2.22)
to build glibc.  Tests for 2.24 or later on x86_64 and s390 are
removed.  It was already the case, as indicated by buildbot results,
that 2.24 was too old for building tests for 32-bit x86 (produced
internal linker errors linking elf/tst-gnu2-tls1mod.so).  I don't know
if any configure tests for binutils features are obsolete given the
increased version requirement.

034e738021 Add float128 support for ia64.
This patch enables float128 support for ia64, so that all the
configurations where GCC supports _Float128 / __float128 as an
ABI-distinct type now have glibc support as well.  bits/floatn.h
declares the support to be available for GCC 4.4 and later, which is
when the libgcc support was added.  The removal of
sysdeps/ia64/fpu/k_rem_pio2.c is because the generic k_rem_pio2.c
defines a function required by the float128 code.

Tested (compilation only) with build-many-glibcs.py for ia64 (GCC 6
and GCC 7).

Given how long it is since libm-test-ulps has been updated for ia64, I
think truncating the file and regenerating it from scratch would be a
good idea when doing a regeneration to add float128 ulps.  I expect
various ia64 libm issues (at least some already filed in Bugzilla) to
result in test failures even after ulps regeneration, but hopefully
the float128 code will pass tests as it's the same as used on other
architectures.

c86ed71d63 Add float128 support for x86_64, x86.
This patch enables float128 support for x86_64 and x86.  All GCC
versions that can build glibc provide the required support, but since
GCC 6 and before don't provide __builtin_nanq / __builtin_nansq, sNaN
tests and some tests of NaN payloads need to be disabled with such
compilers (this does not affect the generated glibc binaries at all,
just the tests).  bits/floatn.h declares float128 support to be
available for GCC versions that provide the required libgcc support
(4.3 for x86_64, 4.4 for i386 GNU/Linux, 4.5 for i386 GNU/Hurd);
compilation-only support was present some time before then, but not
really useful without the libgcc functions.

fenv_private.h needed updating to avoid trying to put _Float128 values
in registers.  I make no assertion of optimality of the
math_opt_barrier / math_force_eval definitions for this case; they are
simply intended to be sufficient to work correctly.

Tested for x86_64 and x86, with GCC 7 and GCC 6.  (Testing for x32 was
compilation tests only with build-many-glibcs.py to verify the ABI
baseline updates.  I have not done any testing for Hurd, although the
float128 support is enabled there as for GNU/Linux.)

f819dbea0a powerpc64le: Enable float128
This patch adds ULPs for the float128 type, updates the abilist for libc
and libm, and adds the files bits/floatn.h and float128-abi.h, in order to
enable the new type for powerpc64le.

This patch also adds the implementation of sqrtf128 for powerpc64le, since
it is not implemented in libgcc.  The sfp-machine.h header is taken from
libgcc.

Tested for powerpc64le (GCC 6.2 and GCC 7.1), powerpc64 and s390x.

905947c304 tunables: Add IFUNC selection and cache sizes
The current IFUNC selection is based on microbenchmarks in glibc.  It
should give the best performance for most workloads.  But other choices
may have better performance for a particular workload or on the hardware
which wasn't available at the selection was made.  The environment
variable, GLIBC_TUNABLES=glibc.tune.ifunc=-xxx,yyy,-zzz...., can be used
to enable CPU/ARCH feature yyy, disable CPU/ARCH feature yyy and zzz,
where the feature name is case-sensitive and has to match the ones in
cpu-features.h.  It can be used by glibc developers to override the
IFUNC selection to tune for a new processor or improve performance for
a particular workload.  It isn't intended for normal end users.

NOTE: the IFUNC selection may change over time.  Please check all
multiarch implementations when experimenting.

Also, GLIBC_TUNABLES=glibc.tune.x86_non_temporal_threshold=NUMBER is
provided to set threshold to use non temporal store to NUMBER,
GLIBC_TUNABLES=glibc.tune.x86_data_cache_size=NUMBER to set data cache
size, GLIBC_TUNABLES=glibc.tune.x86_shared_cache_size=NUMBER to set
shared cache size.

4add86749a Require GCC 4.9 or later for building glibc.
This patch makes configure require GCC 4.9 or later for building
glibc, and documents that requirement.  Requiring GCC 4.9 or later
allows use of _Generic (as in tzcode).  It would allow <stdatomic.h>
and _Atomic to be used as well if desired, although we need to avoid
any libatomic dependencies on any platforms.  This patch is explicitly
the minimum to implement a new version requirement, with any
consequent cleanups of conditional code (not in installed headers or

d08a7e4cbe manual: Replace summary.awk with summary.pl.
The Summary is now generated from @standards, and syntax-checking is
performed.  If invalid @standards syntax is detected, summary.pl will
fail, reporting all errors.  Failure and error reporting is disabled
for now, however, since much of the manual is still incomplete
wrt. header and standards annotations.

Note that the sorting order of the Summary has changed; summary.pl
respects the locale, like summary.awk did, but the use of LC_ALL=C is
introduced in the Makefile.  Other notable deviations are improved
detection of the annotated elements' names, which are used for
sorting, and improved detection of the @node used to reference into
the manual.  The most noticeable difference in the rendered Summary is
that entries may now contain multiple lines, one for each header and
standard combination.

summary.pl accepts a `--help' option, which details the expected
syntax of @standards.  If errors are reported, the user is directed to
this feature for further information.

27691d5cec manual: Create empty placeholder macros for @standards.
Header and standards annotations are slated for standardization,
including being rendered in the description of functions, variables,
etc. (elements), and eventually required.  This commit adds @standards
dummy macros so we can convert all existing annotations to the new
framework while maintaining the rendered status quo.

There needs to be a way to disambiguate annotations in lists of @*x
elements, where a common description is shared but some elements may
have different headers or standards.  The @standardsx macro fills this
role by accepting an additional parameter: the name of the annotated
element.

	placeholder for header and standards annotations.

2c0b90ab44 Enable tunables by default
All of the major architectures are adopting tunables as a way to add
tuning to the library, from hwcap_mask for aarch64 to HLE for s390 and
ifunc and cache geometry for x86.  Given this adoption and the fact
that we don't want additional tuning knobs to be added outside of
tunables, it makes sense to enable tunables by default using this
trivial patch.

Smoke tested on x86 to ensure that tunables code was built without
specifying it as a configure flag.  I have kept it as --enabled and
not changed it to --disable since we want to still keep the option of
different kinds of front-ends for tunables.

Add LD_HWCAP_MASK to tunables in preparation of it being removed from

This patch does not actually do anything other than read the
LD_HWCAP_MASK variable and add the tunables way to set the
LD_HWCAP_MASK, i.e. via the glibc.tune.hwcap_mask tunable.  In a

52bd938169 posix: Implement preadv2 and pwritev2
This patch adds support of preadv2 and pwritev2 which are similar to
preadv/pwritev but with an extra flag argument.  As for preadv/pwritev
both interfaces are added a non-standard GNU API.

For default 'posix' implementation trying to emulate the Linux supported
flags is troublesome:

   * We can not temporary change the file state of the O_DSYNC and O_SYNC
     flags to emulate RWF_{D}SYNC (attempts to change the state of using
     fcntl are silently ignored).

   * IOCB_HIPRI requires the file opened in O_DIRECT and uses an internal
     semantic not provided by any other flag (O_NONBLOCK for instance).

So default sysdeps/posix implementations fails with EOPNOTSUPP for any non
supported flag (which are none currently) calls generic preadv/pwritev.
Basically this implementation supports only preadv2 called as preadv (with
flags sets to 0).

The Linux one uses the preadv2/pwritev2 syscall if defined, otherwise it
call preadv/writev.  Instead of using the previous __ASSUME_* to
unconditionally issue the syscall (and avoid building the fallback routine),
it call pread/write if the preadv2/pwritev2 syscalls fails.  The idea
is just avoid adding another __ASSUME_* and checking each architecture
on every kernel bump and simplify code conditionals.

2e0bbbfbf9 Add reallocarray function
The reallocarray function is an extension from OpenBSD.  It is an
integer-overflow-safe replacement for realloc(p, X*Y) and
malloc(X*Y) (realloc(NULL, X*Y)).  It can therefore help in preventing
certain security issues in code.

This is an updated version of a patch originally submitted by Rüdiger
Sonderfeld in May 2014 [1].

f1a67a2c78 libio: Avoid dup already opened file descriptor [BZ#21393]
As described in BZ#21398 (close as dup of 21393) report current
freopen implementation fails when one tries to freopen STDIN_FILENO,
STDOUT_FILENO, or STDERR_FILENO.  Although on bug report the
discussion leads to argue if a close followed by a freopen on the
standard file is a valid operation, the underlying issue is not
really the check for dup3 returned value, but rather calling it
if the returned file descriptor is equal as the input one.

So for a quality of implementation this patch avoid calling dup3
for the aforementioned case.  It also adds a dup3 error case check
for the two possible failures, with one being Linux only: EINTR and
EBUSY.  The EBUSY issue is better explained on this stackoverflow
thread [1], but in a short it is due the internal Linux
implementation which allows a race condition window for dup2 due
the logic dissociation of file descriptor allocation and actual
VFS 'install' operation.  For both outliers failures all allocated
memory is freed and a NULL FILE* is returned.

With this patch the example on BZ#21398 is now actually possible
(I used as the testcase for the bug report).  Checked on
x86_64-linux-gnu.

	and add a check for dup3 failure.

a429d2ff07 manual: Convert errno @comments to new @errno macro.
errno.texi documents error macros, their values, and error strings in
Texinfo @comments, some of which are also used for @standards.  The
purpose of this commit is to separate the standards from the error
strings so that both the @standards conversion script picks up clean
@standards and the errno documentation framework is improved.

The error names, values, and messages are consolidated in a new custom
macro, @errno.  It is not clear that scripts within the sources rely
on the special Texinfo @comment-based format to generate files used
throughout the library, so the definition of @errno in macros.texi now
provides a comment indicating the dependency.  The dependent scripts
are updated to use @errno, which also simplifies them a bit.  The
files those scripts generate were verified to be unchanged.

The @errno macro is not visibly rendered in any way at this time, but
it does use an @cindex command to add the error string to the Concept
Index, to facilitate searching on error messages.

	* manual/errno.texi: Convert @comment-based errno
	documentation to @errno.
	* manual/macros.texi (@errno): New macro.  Consolidate errors,
	their values, and messages, adding the error string to the

a449fc68f6 manual: Convert @tables of annotated @items to @vtables.
The conversion script will convert these annotations, but the
replacement Summary-generation script won't catch them because @items
in @tables are not generally considered annotatable, causing them to
be skipped over (or cause errors).  Using @vtable ensures their
continued presence in the Summary, with the added benefit that Texinfo
will also automatically include them in the Variable and Constant
Macro index now.

bf079e19f5 getopt: remove USE_NONOPTION_FLAGS
glibc's implementation of getopt includes code to parse an environment
variable named _XXX_GNU_nonoption_argv_flags_ (where XXX is the
current process's PID in decimal); but all of it has been #ifdefed out
since 2001, with no official way to turn it back on.

According to commentary in our config.h.in, bash version 2.0 set this
environment variable to indicate argv elements that were the result of
glob expansion and therefore should not be treated as options, but the
feature was "disabled later" because "it caused problems".  According
to bash's CHANGES file, "later" was release 2.01; it gives no more
detail about what the problems were.

Version 2.0 of bash was released on the last day of 1996, and version
2.01 in June of 1997.  Twenty years later, I think it is safe to
assume that this environment variable isn't coming back.
