This implementation is based on the one already used at
sysdeps/x86_64/fpu/e_expf.S.
This implementation improves the performance by ~14% on average in synthetic
benchmarks at the cost of decreasing accuracy to 1 ULP.
The patched change fixes a regression for executables compiled with the
-p option and linked with gcrt1.o. The executables crash on startup.
This regression was introduced in 2.22 and was noticed in the gcc testsuite.
Although the Enhanced REP MOVSB/STOSB (ERMS) implementations of memmove,
memcpy, mempcpy and memset aren't used by the current processors, this
patch adds Prefer_ERMS check in memmove, memcpy, mempcpy and memset so
that they can be used in the future.

tst-cleanupx4 is linked with tst-cleanupx4.o and tst-cleanup4aux.o.
Since tst-cleanupx4.o is compiled from tst-cleanup4.c with -fexceptions,
tst-cleanup4aux.c should also be compiled with -fexceptions.
Tested on x86-64 and i686.

With shared libc, all locale categories are always loaded.
For static libc they aren't, but there exist a weak
_nl_current_LC_CATEGORY_used symbol for each category.
If the category is used, the locale/lc-CATEGORY.o is linked in
where _NL_CURRENT_DEFINE (LC_CATEGORY) defines and sets the
_nl_current_LC_CATEGORY_used symbol to one.
As reported by Marcin
"Bug 18960 - s390: _nl_locale_subfreeres uses larl opcode on misaligned symbol"
(https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18960)
In function _nl_locale_subfreeres (locale/setlocale.c) for each category
a check - &_nl_current_LC_CATEGORY_used != 0 - decides whether the category
is used or not.
There is also a second usage with the same mechanism in function __uselocale
(locale/uselocale.c).
On s390 a larl instruction with R_390_PC32DBL relocation is used to
get the address of _nl_current_LC_CATEGORY_used symbols. As larl loads the
address relative in halfwords and the code is always 2-byte aligned,
larl can only load even addresses.
At the end, the relocated address is always zero and never one.
Marcins patch (see bugzilla) uses the following declaration in locale/setlocale.c:
extern char _nl_current_##category##_used __attribute__((__aligned__(1)));
In function _nl_locale_subfreeres all categories are checked and therefore gcc
is now building an array of addresses in rodata section with an R_390_64
relocation for every address. This array is loaded with larl instruction and
each address is accessed by index.
This fixes only the usage in _nl_locale_subfreeres. Each user has to add the
alignment attribute.
This patch set the _nl_current_LC_CATEGORY_used symbols to two instead of one.
This way gcc can use larl instruction and the check against zero works on
every usage.
ChangeLog:
[BZ #19860]
* locale/localeinfo.h (_NL_CURRENT_DEFINE):
Set _nl_current_LC_CATEGORY_used to two instead of one.
For some reasons I have not investigated yet, tst-mode-switch-1 hangs on
a MIPS UTM-8 machine running an o32 userland and a 3.6.1 kernel.
This patch changes the test so that it runs under the test-skeleton
framework, causing the test to fail after a timeout instead of hanging
the whole testsuite. At the same time, also change the tst-mode-switch-2
and tst-mode-switch-3 tests.
Changelog:
* sysdeps/mips/tst-mode-switch-1.c (main): Converted to ...
(do_test): ... this.
(TEST_FUNCTION): New macro.
Include test-skeleton.c.
* sysdeps/mips/tst-mode-switch-2.c (main): Likewise.

18661-1 disallows ceil, floor, round and trunc functions from raising
the "inexact" exception, in accordance with general IEEE 754 semantics
for when that exception is raised. Fixing this for x87 floating point
is more complicated than for the other versions of these functions,
because they use the frndint instruction that raises "inexact" and
this can only be avoided by saving and restoring the whole
floating-point environment.
As I noted in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-06/msg00128.html>, I have
now implemented a GCC option -fno-fp-int-builtin-inexact for GCC 7,
such that GCC will inline these functions on x86, without caring about
"inexact", when the default -ffp-int-builtin-inexact is in effect.
This allows users to get optimized code depending on the options they
pass to the compiler, while making the out-of-line functions follow TS
18661-1 semantics and avoid "inexact".
This patch duly fixes the out-of-line trunc function implementations
to avoid "inexact", in the same way as the nearbyint implementations.
I do not know how the performance of implementations such as these
based on saving the environment and changing the rounding mode
temporarily compares to that of the C versions or SSE 4.1 versions (of
course, for 32-bit x86 SSE implementations still need to get the
return value in an x87 register); it's entirely possible other
implementations could be faster in some cases.

Commit 43c29487 tried to fix the vfork aliases in libpthread.so on MIPS
and SPARC, but failed to do it correctly, introducing an ABI change.
This patch does the remaining changes needed to align the MIPS and SPARC
vfork implementations with the other architectures. That way the the
alpha version of pt-vfork.S works correctly for MIPS and SPARC. The
changes for alpha were done in 82aab97c.
Changelog:

The x86_64 and i386 versions of scalbl return sNaN for some cases of
sNaN input and are missing "invalid" exceptions for other cases. This
results from overly complicated code that either returns a NaN input,
or discards both inputs when one is NaN and loads a NaN from memory.
This patch fixes this by simplifying the code to add the arguments
when either one is NaN.
Tested for x86_64 and x86.
[BZ #20296]

* math/libm-test.inc (scalb_test_data): Add sNaN tests.
This patch adds tests of sNaN inputs to more functions to
libm-test.inc. This covers the remaining real functions except for
scalb, where there's a bug to fix, and hypot pow fmin fmax, where
there are cases where a qNaN input does not result in a qNaN output
and so sNaN support according to TS 18661-1 is more of a new feature.

getconf has the capability to do a runtime check for environment
support in cases where there is optional support for an environment
(_POSIX_V7_ILP32_OFF32 on x86_64 for example) and this is indicated by
not defining the _POSIX_V7_ILP32_OFF32 macro, which results in getconf
doing an additional execve of _POSIX_V7_ILP32_OFF32 in the
$GETCONF_DIR.
The default bits/environments.h however does not leave any environment
macros undefined, which means that no such additional execve is
needed. gcc trunk catches this as a build failure since it finds that
the code block inside switch(specs[i].num) is not reachable. Avoid
this error by not bothering about the additional exec (and looking in
specific environments) when all environments are defined.
Tested on aarch64.
* posix/getconf.c: Define ALL_ENVIRONMENTS_DEFINED if all
environment macros are defined.
(main): Avoid execve if ALL_ENVIRONMENTS_DEFINED is defined.
This commit puts all libio vtables in a dedicated, read-only ELF
section, so that they are consecutive in memory. Before any indirect
jump, the vtable pointer is checked against the section boundaries,
and the process is terminated if the vtable pointer does not fall into
the special ELF section.
To enable backwards compatibility, a special flag variable
(_IO_accept_foreign_vtables), protected by the pointer guard, avoids
process termination if libio stream object constructor functions have
been called earlier. Such constructor functions are called by the GCC
2.95 libstdc++ library, and this mechanism ensures compatibility with
old binaries. Existing callers inside glibc of these functions are
adjusted to call the original functions, not the wrappers which enable
vtable compatiblity.
The compatibility mechanism is used to enable passing FILE * objects
across a static dlopen boundary, too.
If the requested size is zero, realloc returns NULL, but the
deallocation is still successful, unless the pointer is also
NULL, when realloc behaves as malloc (0).
__attribute__ ((used)) means that the function has to be
emitted in assembly because it is referenced in ways the
compiler cannot detect (such as asm statements, or some
post-processing on the generated assembly).
The unused attribute needs to come first, otherwise it is
applied to the return type and not the function definition.
The i386 implementations of nearbyint functions, and x86_64
nearbyintl, contain code to mask the "inexact" exception. However,
the fnstenv instruction has the effect of masking all exceptions, so
this masking code has been redundant since fnstenv was added to those
implementations (by commit 846d9a4a3acdb4939ca7bf6aed48f9f6f26911be;
commit 71d1b0166b added the test
math/test-nearbyint-except-2.c that verifies these functions do work
when called with "inexact" traps enabled); this patch removes the
redundant code.
Tested for x86_64 and x86.

Before this change, the while loop in reused_arena which avoids
returning a corrupt arena would never execute its body if the selected
arena were not corrupt. As a result, result == begin after the loop,
and the function returns NULL, triggering fallback to mmap.
This patch fixes the p{readv,writev}{64} consolidation implementation
from commits 4e77815 and af5fdf5. Different from pread/pwrite
implementation, preadv/pwritev implementation does not require
__ALIGNMENT_ARG because kernel syscall prototypes define
the high and low part of the off_t, if it is the case, directly
(different from pread/pwrite where the architecture ABI for passing
64-bit values must be in consideration for passsing the arguments).
It also adds some basic tests for preadv/pwritev.

It appears that on these architectures pt-vfork.S includes vfork.S
(through the alpha version of pt-vfork.S) and that the __vfork aliases
are not conditionalized on IS_IN (libc) like on other architectures.
Therefore the aliases are also wrongly included in libpthread.so.
Fix this by properly conditionalizing the aliases like on other
architectures.

TS 18661 adds nextup and nextdown functions alongside nextafter to provide
support for float128 equivalent to it. This patch adds nextupl, nextup,
nextupf, nextdownl, nextdown and nextdownf to libm before float128 support.
The nextup functions return the next representable value in the direction of
positive infinity and the nextdown functions return the next representable
value in the direction of negative infinity. These are currently enabled
as GNU extensions.
