In 1999 the project split "localedir" into "localedir" (path to compiled
locale archives) and "msgcatdir" (path to message catalogs). This
predates the 2002 change in the GNU Coding Standard to document the use
of "localedir" for the path to the message catalogs. It appears that
newlib, gcc, and several other projects also used "msgcatdir" at one
point or another in the past, and so it is in line with historical
precedent that glibc would also use "msgcatdir." However, given that the
GNU Coding Standard uses "localedir", we will switch to that for
consistency as a GNU project. Previous uses of --localdir didn't work
anyway (see bug 14259).
I am committing this patch in the understanding that nobody would object
to fixing #14259 as part of aligning our variable usage to the GNU
Coding Standard.
Given that previous "localedir" uses were converted to "complocaledir"
by [1], we can now convert "msgcatdir" to "localedir" and complete the
transition. With an addition to config.make.in we also fix bug 14259 and
allow users to specify the locale dependent data directory with
"--localedir" at configure time. There is still no way to control at
configure time the location of the *compiled* locale directory.
Tested on x86_64 with no regressions.
Tested using "--localedir" to specify alternate locale dependent data
directory and verified with "make install DESTDIR=/tmp/glibc".

Now we require Linux 3.2 or later kernel headers everywhere, the
configure test for <linux/fanotify.h> is obsolete; this patch removes
it.
Tested for x86_64.

test for header.

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.
Tested for x86_64 and x86.

HAVE_BUILTIN_EXPECT macro was removed by commit glibc-2.14-280-g3ce1f29,
but then its use was unintentionally reintroduced during merge with GNU
gettext 0.19.3 by commit glibc-2.20-324-g6d24885, effectively disabling
all optimization based on __builtin_expect. As intl files are also part
of GNU gettext, HAVE_BUILTIN_EXPECT macro cannot be removed, so define
it unconditionally in config.h.in instead.
[BZ #19512]
* config.h.in (HAVE_BUILTIN_EXPECT): New macro.
The build of posix/tst-dir.c fails due to undefined DIAG_* macros.
The usage of the macros were introduced in recent commit
7584a3f96d
"Deprecate readdir_r, readdir64_r [BZ #19056]".
This patch adds the missing header libc-internal.h.
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 following new 386 and X86_64 were added to binutils. They are
non-dynamic relocations, so don't need direct handling in glibc.

The vast majority of timeouts I've seen w/glibc tests are due to:
- slow system (e.g. <1 GHz cpu)
- loaded system (e.g. lots of parallelism)
Even then, I've seen timeouts on system I don't generally consider
slow, or even loaded, and considering TIMEOUT is set to <=10 in ~60
tests (and <=20 in ~75 tests), it seems I'm not alone. I've just
gotten in the habit of doing `export TIMEOUTFACTOR=10` on all my
setups.
In the edge case where there is a bug in the test and the timeout is
hit, I think we all agree that's either a problem with the test or a
real bug in the library somewhere. In either case, the incident rate
should be low, so catering to that seems like the wrong trade-off.
Other developers too usually set large timeout factors. Increase the
default to 20 seconds to match reality.
From the bug:
Netherlands Antilles was dissolved, and "AN" is not a part of ISO 3166
anymore. According to setlocale(3), "territory is an ISO 3166 country
code". We now have pap_AW and pap_CW.

Note: the Dominican Republic (DO) and Puerto Rico (PR) updates are
correct: they both use +1. Historically, DO had one area code of
809 and PR of 787 which is why they were listed as such, but they
have both expanded into 829 and 989 respectively, so using the four
digit value is def incorrect now.
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

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.
The ldbl-128ibm implementation of floorl is only correct in
round-to-nearest mode (in other modes, there are incorrect results and
overflow exceptions in some cases going beyond the incorrect signs of
zero results noted in bug 17899). It is also unnecessarily
complicated, rounding both high and low parts to the nearest integer
and then adjusting for the semantics of floor, when it seems more
natural to take the floor of the high part (__floor optimized inline
versions can be used), and that of the low part if the high part is an
integer. This patch makes it use that simpler approach, with a
canonicalization that works in all rounding modes (given that the only
way the result can be noncanonical is if taking the floor of a
negative noninteger low part increased its exponent).
Tested for powerpc, where over a thousand failures are removed from
test-ldouble.out (floorl problems affect many powl tests).

As discussed in
https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-10/msg00403.html
the setting of _STRING_ARCH_unaligned currently controls the external
GLIBC ABI as well as selecting the use of unaligned accesses withing
GLIBC.
Since _STRING_ARCH_unaligned was recently changed for AArch64, this
would potentially break the ABI in GLIBC 2.23, so split the uses and add
_STRING_INLINE_unaligned to select the string ABI. This setting must be
fixed for each target, while _STRING_ARCH_unaligned may be changed from
release to release. _STRING_ARCH_unaligned is used unconditionally in
glibc. But <bits/string.h>, which defines _STRING_ARCH_unaligned, isn't
included with -Os. Since _STRING_ARCH_unaligned is internal to glibc and
may change between glibc releases, it should be made private to glibc.
_STRING_ARCH_unaligned should defined in the new string_private.h heade
file which is included unconditionally from internal <string.h> for glibc
build.

* A stack-based buffer overflow was found in libresolv when invoked from
libnss_dns, allowing specially crafted DNS responses to seize control
of execution flow in the DNS client. The buffer overflow occurs in
the functions send_dg (send datagram) and send_vc (send TCP) for the
NSS module libnss_dns.so.2 when calling getaddrinfo with AF_UNSPEC
family. The use of AF_UNSPEC triggers the low-level resolver code to
send out two parallel queries for A and AAAA. A mismanagement of the
buffers used for those queries could result in the response of a query
writing beyond the alloca allocated buffer created by
_nss_dns_gethostbyname4_r. Buffer management is simplified to remove
the overflow. Thanks to the Google Security Team and Red Hat for
reporting the security impact of this issue, and Robert Holiday of
Ciena for reporting the related bug 18665. (CVE-2015-7547)
