This patch removes all the replicated pthread definition accross the
architectures and consolidates it on shared headers. The new
organization is as follow:
* Architecture specific definition (such as pthread types sizes) are
place in the new pthreadtypes-arch.h header in arch specific path.
* All shared structure definition are moved to a common NPTL header
at sysdeps/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes.h (with now includes the arch
specific one for internal definitions).
* Also, for C11 future thread support, both mutex and condition
definition are placed in a common header at
sysdeps/nptl/bits/thread-shared-types.h.
It is also a refactor patch without expected functional changes.

This is a new implementation for condition variables, required
after http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=609 to fix bug 13165. In
essence, we need to be stricter in which waiters a signal or broadcast
is required to wake up; this couldn't be solved using the old algorithm.
ISO C++ made a similar clarification, so this also fixes a bug in
current libstdc++, for example.
We can't use the old algorithm anymore because futexes do not guarantee
to wake in FIFO order. Thus, when we wake, we can't simply let any
waiter grab a signal, but we need to ensure that one of the waiters
happening before the signal is woken up. This is something the previous
algorithm violated (see bug 13165).
There's another issue specific to condvars: ABA issues on the underlying
futexes. Unlike mutexes that have just three states, or semaphores that
have no tokens or a limited number of them, the state of a condvar is
the *order* of the waiters. A waiter on a semaphore can grab a token
whenever one is available; a condvar waiter must only consume a signal
if it is eligible to do so as determined by the relative order of the
waiter and the signal.
Therefore, this new algorithm maintains two groups of waiters: Those
eligible to consume signals (G1), and those that have to wait until
previous waiters have consumed signals (G2). Once G1 is empty, G2
becomes the new G1. 64b counters are used to avoid ABA issues.
This condvar doesn't yet use a requeue optimization (ie, on a broadcast,
waking just one thread and requeueing all others on the futex of the
mutex supplied by the program). I don't think doing the requeue is
necessarily the right approach (but I haven't done real measurements
yet):
* If a program expects to wake many threads at the same time and make
that scalable, a condvar isn't great anyway because of how it requires
waiters to operate mutually exclusive (due to the mutex usage). Thus, a
thundering herd problem is a scalability problem with or without the
optimization. Using something like a semaphore might be more
appropriate in such a case.
* The scalability problem is actually at the mutex side; the condvar
could help (and it tries to with the requeue optimization), but it
should be the mutex who decides how that is done, and whether it is done
at all.
* Forcing all but one waiter into the kernel-side wait queue of the
mutex prevents/avoids the use of lock elision on the mutex. Thus, it
prevents the only cure against the underlying scalability problem
inherent to condvars.
* If condvars use short critical sections (ie, hold the mutex just to
check a binary flag or such), which they should do ideally, then forcing
all those waiter to proceed serially with kernel-based hand-off (ie,
futex ops in the mutex' contended state, via the futex wait queues) will
be less efficient than just letting a scalable mutex implementation take
care of it. Our current mutex impl doesn't employ spinning at all, but
if critical sections are short, spinning can be much better.
* Doing the requeue stuff requires all waiters to always drive the mutex
into the contended state. This leads to each waiter having to call
futex_wake after lock release, even if this wouldn't be necessary.

Information about whether the ABI of long double is the same as that
of double is split between bits/mathdef.h and bits/wordsize.h.
When the ABIs are the same, bits/mathdef.h defines
__NO_LONG_DOUBLE_MATH. In addition, in the case where the same glibc
binary supports both -mlong-double-64 and -mlong-double-128,
bits/wordsize.h defines __LONG_DOUBLE_MATH_OPTIONAL, along with
__NO_LONG_DOUBLE_MATH if this particular compilation is with
-mlong-double-64.
As part of the refactoring I proposed in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-11/msg00745.html>, this
patch puts all that information in a single header,
bits/long-double.h. It is included from sys/cdefs.h alongside the
include of bits/wordsize.h, so other headers generally do not need to
include bits/long-double.h directly.
Previously, various bits/mathdef.h headers and bits/wordsize.h headers
had this long double information (including implicitly in some
bits/mathdef.h headers through not having the defines present in the
default version). After the patch, it's all in six bits/long-double.h
headers. Furthermore, most of those new headers are not
architecture-specific. Architectures with optional long double all
use the ldbl-opt sysdeps directory, either in the order (ldbl-64-128,
ldbl-opt, ldbl-128) or (ldbl-128ibm, ldbl-opt). Thus a generic header
for the case where long double = double, and headers in ldbl-128,
ldbl-96 and ldbl-opt, suffices to cover every architecture except for
cases where long double properties vary between different ABIs sharing
a set of installed headers; fortunately all the ldbl-opt cases share a
single compiler-predefined macro __LONG_DOUBLE_128__ that can be used
to tell whether this compilation is -mlong-double-64 or
-mlong-double-128.
The two cases where a set of headers is shared between ABIs with
different long double properties, MIPS (o32 has long double = double,
other ABIs use ldbl-128) and SPARC (32-bit has optional long double,
64-bit has required long double), need their own bits/long-double.h
headers.
As with bits/wordsize.h, multiple-include protection for this header
is generally implicit through the include guards on sys/cdefs.h, and
multiple inclusion is harmless in any case. There is one subtlety:
the header must not define __LONG_DOUBLE_MATH_OPTIONAL if
__NO_LONG_DOUBLE_MATH was defined before its inclusion, because doing
so breaks how sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-opt/nldbl-compat.h defines
__NO_LONG_DOUBLE_MATH itself before including system headers. Subject
to keeping that working, it would be reasonable to move these macros
from defined/undefined #ifdef to always-defined 1/0 #if semantics, but
this patch does not attempt to do so, just rearranges where the macros
are defined.
After this patch, the only use of bits/mathdef.h is the alpha one for
modifying complex function ABIs for old GCC. Thus, all versions of
the header other than the default and alpha versions are removed, as
is the include from math.h.
Tested for x86_64 and x86. Also did compilation-only testing with

Continuing the refactoring of bits/mathdef.h, this patch stops it
defining FP_ILOGB0 and FP_ILOGBNAN, moving the required information to
a new header bits/fp-logb.h.
There are only two possible values of each of those macros permitted
by ISO C. TS 18661-1 adds corresponding macros for llogb, and their
values are required to correspond to those of the ilogb macros in the
obvious way. Thus two boolean values - for which the same choices are
correct for most architectures - suffice to determine the value of all
these macros, and by defining macros for those boolean values in
bits/fp-logb.h we can then define the public FP_* macros in math.h and
avoid the present duplication of the associated feature test macro
logic.
This patch duly moves to bits/fp-logb.h defining __FP_LOGB0_IS_MIN and
__FP_LOGBNAN_IS_MIN. Default definitions of those to 0 are correct
for both architectures, while ia64, m68k and x86 get their own
versions of bits/fp-logb.h to reflect their use of values different
from the defaults.
The patch renders many copies of bits/mathdef.h trivial (needed only
to avoid the default __NO_LONG_DOUBLE_MATH). I'll revise
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-11/msg00865.html>
accordingly so that it removes all bits/mathdef.h headers except the
default one and the alpha one, and arranges for the header to be
included only by complex.h as the only remaining use at that point
will be for the alpha ABI issues there.
Tested for x86_64 and x86. Also did compile-only testing with
build-many-glibcs.py (using glibc sources from before the commit that
introduced many build failures with undefined __GI___sigsetjmp).

Continuing the refactoring of bits/mathdef.h, this patch moves the
FP_FAST_* definitions into a new bits/fp-fast.h header. Currently
this is only for FP_FAST_FMA*, but in future it would be the
appropriate place for the FP_FAST_* macros from TS 18661-1 as well.
The generic bits/mathdef.h header defines these macros based on
whether the compiler defines __FP_FAST_*. Most architecture-specific
headers, however, fail to do so, meaning that if the architecture (or
some particular processors) does in fact have fused operations, and
GCC knows to use them inline, the FP_FAST_* macros will still not be
defined.
By refactoring, this patch causes the generic version (based on
__FP_FAST_*) to be used in more cases, and so the macro definitions to
be more accurate. Architectures that already defined some or all of
these macros other than based on the predefines have their own
versions of fp-fast.h, which are arranged so they define FP_FAST_* if
either the architecture-specific conditions are true or __FP_FAST_*
are defined.
After this refactoring, various bits/mathdef.h headers for
architectures with long double = double are semantically identical to
the generic version. The patch removes those headers that are
redundant. (In fact two of the four removed were already redundant
before this patch because they did use __FP_FAST_*.)

This patch remove the PID cache and usage in current GLIBC code. Current
usage is mainly used a performance optimization to avoid the syscall,
however it adds some issues:
- The exposed clone syscall will try to set pid/tid to make the new
thread somewhat compatible with current GLIBC assumptions. This cause
a set of issue with new workloads and usecases (such as BZ#17214 and
[1]) as well for new internal usage of clone to optimize other algorithms
(such as clone plus CLONE_VM for posix_spawn, BZ#19957).
- The caching complexity also added some bugs in the past [2] [3] and
requires more effort of each port to handle such requirements (for
both clone and vfork implementation).
- Caching performance gain in mainly on getpid and some specific
code paths. The getpid performance leverage is questionable [4],
either by the idea of getpid being a hotspot as for the getpid
implementation itself (if it is indeed a justifiable hotspot a
vDSO symbol could let to a much more simpler solution).
Other usage is mainly for non usual code paths, such as pthread
cancellation signal and handling.
For thread creation (on stack allocation) the code simplification in fact
adds some performance gain due the no need of transverse the stack cache
and invalidate each element pid.
Other thread usages will require a direct getpid syscall, such as
cancellation/setxid signal, thread cancellation, thread fail path (at
create_thread), and thread signal (pthread_kill and pthread_sigqueue).
However these are hardly usual hotspots and I think adding a syscall is
justifiable.
It also simplifies both the clone and vfork arch-specific implementation.
And by review each fork implementation there are some discrepancies that
this patch also solves:
- microblaze clone/vfork does not set/reset the pid/tid field
- hppa uses the default vfork implementation that fallback to fork.
Since vfork is deprecated I do not think we should bother with it.
The patch also removes the TID caching in clone. My understanding for
such semantic is try provide some pthread usage after a user program
issue clone directly (as done by thread creation with CLONE_PARENT_SETTID
and pthread tid member). However, as stated before in multiple discussions
threads, GLIBC provides clone syscalls without further supporting all this
semantics.
I ran a full make check on x86_64, x32, i686, armhf, aarch64, and powerpc64le.
For sparc32, sparc64, and mips I ran the basic fork and vfork tests from
posix/ folder (on a qemu system). So it would require further testing
on alpha, hppa, ia64, m68k, nios2, s390, sh, and tile (I excluded microblaze
because it is already implementing the patch semantic regarding clone/vfork).

At present, definitions of float_t and double_t are split among many
bits/mathdef.h headers.
For all but three architectures, these types are float and double.
Furthermore, if you assume __FLT_EVAL_METHOD__ to be defined, that
provides a more generic way of determining the correct values of these
typedefs. Defining these typedefs more generally based on
__FLT_EVAL_METHOD__ was previously proposed by Paul Eggert in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2012-02/msg00002.html>.
This patch refactors things in the way I proposed in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-11/msg00745.html>. A new
header bits/flt-eval-method.h defines a single macro,
__GLIBC_FLT_EVAL_METHOD, which is then used by math.h to define
float_t and double_t. The default is based on __FLT_EVAL_METHOD__
(although actually a default to 0 would have the same effect for
current ports, because ports where values other than 0 or 16 are
possible all have their own headers).
To avoid changing the existing semantics in any case, including for
compilers not defining __FLT_EVAL_METHOD__, architecture-specific
files are then added for m68k, s390, x86 which replicate the existing
semantics. At least with __FLT_EVAL_METHOD__ values possible with
GCC, there should be no change to the choices of float_t and double_t
for any supported configuration.
Architecture maintainer notes:
* m68k: sysdeps/m68k/m680x0/bits/flt-eval-method.h always defines
__GLIBC_FLT_EVAL_METHOD to 2 to replicate the existing logic. But
actually GCC defines __FLT_EVAL_METHOD__ to 0 if TARGET_68040. It
might make sense to make the header prefer to base things on
__FLT_EVAL_METHOD__ if defined, like the x86 version, and so make
the choices of these types more accurate (with a NEWS entry as for
the other changes to these types on particular architectures).
* s390: sysdeps/s390/bits/flt-eval-method.h always defines
__GLIBC_FLT_EVAL_METHOD to 1 to replicate the existing logic. As
previously discussed, it might make sense in coordination with GCC
to eliminate the historic mistake, avoid excess precision in the
-fexcess-precision=standard case and make the typedefs match (with a
NEWS entry, again).

manual/libm-err-tab.pl hardcodes a list of names for particular
platforms (mapping from sysdeps directory name to friendly name for
the manual). This goes against the principle of keeping information
about individual platforms in their corresponding sysdeps directory,
and the list is also very out-of-date regarding supported platforms
and their corresponding sysdeps directories.
This patch fixes this by adding a libm-test-ulps-name file alongside
each libm-test-ulps file. The script then gets the friendly name from
that file, which is required to exist, so it no longer needs to allow
for the mapping being missing.
Tested for x86_64.

This patch adds AArch64 versions of fegetmode and fesetmode.
Untested.
* sysdeps/aarch64/fpu/fegetmode.c: New file.
* sysdeps/aarch64/fpu/fesetmode.c: Likewise.
TS 18661-1 defines a type femode_t to represent the set of dynamic
floating-point control modes (such as the rounding mode and trap
enablement modes), and functions fegetmode and fesetmode to manipulate
those modes (without affecting other state such as the raised
exception flags) and a corresponding macro FE_DFL_MODE.
This patch series implements those interfaces for glibc. This first
patch adds the architecture-independent pieces, the x86 and x86_64
implementations, and the <bits/fenv.h> and ABI baseline updates for
all architectures so glibc keeps building and passing the ABI tests on
all architectures. Subsequent patches add the fegetmode and fesetmode
implementations for other architectures.
femode_t is generally an integer type - the same type as fenv_t, or as
the single element of fenv_t where fenv_t is a structure containing a
single integer (or the single relevant element, where it has elements
for both status and control registers) - except where architecture
properties or consistency with the fenv_t implementation indicate
otherwise. FE_DFL_MODE follows FE_DFL_ENV in whether it's a magic
pointer value (-1 cast to const femode_t *), a value that can be
distinguished from valid pointers by its high bits but otherwise
contains a representation of the desired register contents, or a
pointer to a constant variable (the powerpc case; __fe_dfl_mode is
added as an exported constant object, an alias to __fe_dfl_env).
Note that where architectures (that share a register between control
and status bits) gain definitions of new floating-point control or
status bits in future, the implementations of fesetmode for those
architectures may need updating (depending on whether the new bits are
control or status bits and what the implementation does with
previously unknown bits), just like existing implementations of
<fenv.h> functions that take care not to touch reserved bits may need
updating when the set of reserved bits changes. (As any new bits are
outside the scope of ISO C, that's just a quality-of-implementation
issue for supporting them, not a conformance issue.)
As with fenv_t, femode_t should properly include any software DFP
rounding mode (and for both fenv_t and femode_t I'd consider that
fragment of DFP support appropriate for inclusion in glibc even in the
absence of the rest of libdfp; hardware DFP rounding modes should
already be included if the definitions of which bits are status /
control bits are correct).
Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 (hard float, and soft float to test the
fallback version), arm (hard float) and powerpc (hard float, soft
float and e500). Other architecture versions are untested.

When glibc is built with --enable-profile, the ENTRY of
asm functions includes CALL_MCOUNT for profiling.
(matters for binaries static linked against libc_p.a.)
CALL_MCOUNT did not save/restore argument registers
around the _mcount call so it clobbered them.
(it is enough to only save/restore the arguments passed
to a given asm function, but that would be too many asm
changes so it is simpler to always save all argument
registers in this macro.)
float args are not saved: mcount does not clobber the
float regs and currently no asm function takes float
arguments anyway.

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.

It was noted in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2012-09/msg00305.html> that the
bits/*.h naming scheme should only be used for installed headers.
This patch renames bits/atomic.h to atomic-machine.h to follow that
convention.
This is the only change in this series that needs to change the
filename rather than simply removing a directory level (because both
atomic.h and bits/atomic.h exist at present).
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that installed stripped shared
libraries are unchanged by the patch).

It uses the same logic as the ARM version. The common case removes 1 FPSR
and 1 FPCR read. For FE_DFL_ENV and FE_NOMASK_ENV a FPCR read is avoided in
case the FPCR does not change.
for nul bytes which reverts to separate loop when a non-ASCII char is encountered.
Speedup on test-strlen is ~10%, long ASCII strings are processed ~60% faster,
and on random tests it is ~80% better.

Lazy TLSDESC initialization needs to be synchronized with concurrent TLS
accesses. The TLS descriptor contains a function pointer (entry) and an
argument that is accessed from the entry function. With lazy initialization
the first call to the entry function updates the entry and the argument to
their final value. A final entry function must make sure that it accesses an
initialized argument, this needs synchronization on systems with weak memory
ordering otherwise the writes of the first call can be observed out of order.
There are at least two issues with the current code:
tlsdesc.c (i386, x86_64, arm, aarch64) uses volatile memory accesses on the
write side (in the initial entry function) instead of C11 atomics.
And on systems with weak memory ordering (arm, aarch64) the read side
synchronization is missing from the final entry functions (dl-tlsdesc.S).
This patch only deals with aarch64.
* Write side:
Volatile accesses were replaced with C11 relaxed atomics, and a release
store was used for the initialization of entry so the read side can
synchronize with it.
* Read side:
TLS access generated by the compiler and an entry function code is roughly
ldr x1, [x0] // load the entry
blr x1 // call it
entryfunc:
ldr x0, [x0,#8] // load the arg
ret
Various alternatives were considered to force the ordering in the entry
function between the two loads:
(1) barrier
entryfunc:
dmb ishld
ldr x0, [x0,#8]
(2) address dependency (if the address of the second load depends on the
result of the first one the ordering is guaranteed):
entryfunc:
ldr x1,[x0]
and x1,x1,#8
orr x1,x1,#8
ldr x0,[x0,x1]
(3) load-acquire (ARMv8 instruction that is ordered before subsequent
loads and stores)
entryfunc:
ldar xzr,[x0]
ldr x0,[x0,#8]
Option (1) is the simplest but slowest (note: this runs at every TLS
access), options (2) and (3) do one extra load from [x0] (same address
loads are ordered so it happens-after the load on the call site),
option (2) clobbers x1 which is problematic because existing gcc does
not expect that, so approach (3) was chosen.
A new _dl_tlsdesc_return_lazy entry function was introduced for lazily
relocated static TLS, so non-lazy static TLS can avoid the synchronization
cost.

Various code in glibc uses __strnlen instead of strnlen for namespace
reasons. However, __strnlen does not use libc_hidden_proto /
libc_hidden_def (as is normally done for any function defined and
called within the same library, whether or not exported from the
library and whatever namespace it is in), so the compiler does not
know that those calls are to a function within libc.
This patch uses libc_hidden_proto / libc_hidden_def with __strnlen.
On x86_64, it makes no difference to the installed stripped shared
libraries. On 32-bit x86, it causes __strnlen calls to go to the same
place as strnlen calls (the fallback strnlen implementation), rather
than through a PLT entry for the strnlen IFUNC; I'm not sure of the
logic behind when calls from within libc should use IFUNCs versus when
they should go direct to a particular function implementation, but
clearly it doesn't make sense for strnlen and __strnlen to be handled
differently in this regard.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and comparison of installed
shared libraries as described above).
