The tunable parsing duplicates the tunable environment variable so it
null-terminates each one since it simplifies the later parsing. It has
the drawback of adding another point of failure (__minimal_malloc
failing), and the memory copy requires tuning the compiler to avoid mem
operations calls.
The parsing now tracks the tunable start and its size. The
dl-tunable-parse.h adds helper functions to help parsing, like a strcmp
that also checks for size and an iterator for suboptions that are
comma-separated (used on hwcap parsing by x86, powerpc, and s390x).
Since the environment variable is allocated on the stack by the kernel,
it is safe to keep the references to the suboptions for later parsing
of string tunables (as done by set_hwcaps by multiple architectures).

I'm not sure of the exact sequence of undefined references that cause
first the glibc object file defining .div and then the libgcc object
file defining both .div and .udiv to be pulled in (which must have
been perturbed by that GCC change in a way that introduced the build
failure), but I think the failure illustrates that it's inherently
fragile for glibc to define symbols in separate object files that
libgcc defines in the same object file - and indeed for glibc to
redefine libgcc symbols at all, since the division into object files
shouldn't really be part of the interface between libgcc and libc.
These symbols appear to be in libc only for compatibility, maybe one
of the cases where they were accidentally exported from shared libc in
glibc 2.0 before the introduction of symbol versioning and so programs
started expecting shared libc to provide them. Thus, there is no need
to have them in static libc. Add this set of libgcc functions to
shared-only-routines so they are no longer provided in static libc.
(No change is made regarding .mul - dotmul source file - since unlike
the other symbols in this grouping, it doesn't actually appear to be a
libgcc symbol, at least in current GCC.)
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py for sparcv9-linux-gnu with GCC

Verify that legacy shadow stack code in .init_array section in application
and shared library, which are marked as shadow stack enabled, will trigger
segfault.
So far if the ucontext structure was obtained by getcontext and co,
the return address was stored in general purpose register 14 as
it is defined as return address in the ABI.
In contrast, the context passed to a signal handler contains the address
in psw.addr field.
If somebody e.g. wants to dump the address of the context, the origin
needs to be known.
Now this patch adjusts getcontext and friends and stores the return address
also in psw.addr field.
Note that setcontext isn't adjusted and it is not supported to pass a
ucontext structure from signal-handler to setcontext. We are not able to
restore all registers and branching to psw.addr without clobbering one
register.

Hello! I am Indonesian, was born and raised in Indonesia and still do live in
Indonesia.
This patch brings a few changes to the time locales of id_ID, which
includes :
\- Defining am_pm and time_fmpt_ampm
\- Changing time_fmt and d_t_fmt to use the 24-hour format
\- Changing first_weekday to Monday
This is a squashed version of what is previously a 5 patch set
Here are reasons and details of the changes :
Change 1 part 1
id_ID: Define `am_pm` string
Current formatting does not define am_pm string, leading to AM and PM
not being specified in 12 H time format. This change defines the string
by changing it from an empty string to "AM";"PM".
output of `date +%r`:
before commit: 01:23
after commit: 01:23 PM
Change 1 part 2
id_ID: Define time_fmt_ampm, change from an empty string
Currently, time_fmpt_ampm is set to an empty string, causing some
programs to not be able to display time in the 12-hour format, for
example, glib: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/issues/2967.
This commit changes it from an empty string to "%I:%M:%S %p"
Change 2 part 1
id_ID: Use 24-hour format for time_fmt
Indonesian standard and formal time format uses the 24-hour format inst-
ead of the 12-hour format. This commit aims to change the id_ID locale's
time_fmt to match that accordingly.
Change 2 part 2
id_ID: Use 24-hour format for d_t_fmt.
Indonesian standard and formal time format uses the 24-hour format inst-
ead of the 12-hour format. This commit aims to change the id_ID locale's
d_t_fmt to match that accordingly.
Change 3
id_ID: Change first_weekday to monday
Indonesian calendar starts of the week with Monday, let's comply

After refactoring the alloca usage in 40c0add7d4 ("resolve: Remove
__res_context_query alloca usage") a few unaligned accesses to HEADER
fields surfaced. These unaligned accesses led to problems when running
the resolv test suite on sparc32-linux (leon) as many tests failed due to
SIGBUS crashes.
The issue(s) occured during T_QUERY_A_AND_AAAA queries as the second query
now can start on an unaligned address (previously it was explicitly aligned).
With this patch the unaligned accesses are now fixed by using the
UHEADER instead to ensure the fields are accessed with byte
loads/stores.
The patch has been verfied by running the resolv test suite on sparc32
and x86_64.

One of the requirements to becoming a CVE Numbering Authority (CNA) is
to publish advisories. Do this by maintaining a file for each CVE fixed
in the advisories directory in the source tree. Links to the advisories
can then be shared as:
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=blob_plain;f=advisories/GLIBC-SA-YYYY-NNNN
The file format at the moment is rudimentary and derives from the git
commit format, i.e. a subject line and a potentially multi-paragraph
description and then tags to describe some meta information. This is a
loose format at the moment and could change as we evolve this.
Also add a script process-fixed-cves.sh that processes these advisories
and generates a list to add to NEWS at release time.

This patch is based on __strcmp_power9 and __strlen_power10.
Improvements from __strcmp_power9:
1. Uses new POWER10 instructions
- This code uses lxvp to decrease contention on load
by loading 32 bytes per instruction.
2. Performance implication
- This version has around 30% better performance on average.
- Performance regression is seen for a specific combination
of sizes and alignments. Some of them is observed without
changes also, while rest may be induced by the patch.

The .cfi_return_column directive changes the return column for the whole

in x30 (lr) now resides in x15 after the move, and that is expressed by
the .cfi_register directive.
New implementation is based on the existing exp/exp2, with different
reduction constants and polynomial. Worst-case error in round-to-

The exp/exp2 shared table is reused for exp10 - .rodata size of
e_exp_data increases by 64 bytes.
As for exp/exp2, targets with single-instruction rounding/conversion
intrinsics can use them by toggling TOINT_INTRINSICS=1 and adding the
necessary code to their math_private.h.

The linker just concatenates the .init and .fini sections which
results in the complete _init and _fini functions. If needed the
linker adds padding bytes due to an alignment. GNU ld is adding
NOPs, which is fine. But e.g. mold is adding traps which results
in broken _init and _fini functions.
Thus this patch removes the alignment in .init and .fini sections
in crtn.S files.
We keep the 4 byte function alignment in crti.S files. As the
assembler now also outputs the start of _init and _fini functions
as multiples of 4 byte, it perhaps has to fill it. Although GNU as
is using NOPs here, to be sure, we just keep the alignment with
0x07 (=NOPs) at the end of crti.S.
In order to avoid an obvious NOP slide in _fini, this patch also
uses an lg instead of lgr instruction. Then the emitted instructions
needs a multiple of 4 bytes.
Even for explicit large page support, allocation might use mmap without
the hugepage bit set if the requested size is smaller than
mmap_threshold. For this case where mmap is issued, MAP_HUGETLB is set
iff the allocation size is larger than the used large page.
To force such allocations to use large pages, also tune the mmap_threhold
(if it is not explicit set by a tunable). This forces allocation to
follow the sbrk path, which will fall back to mmap (which will try large
pages before galling back to default mmap).
