The __suseconds64_t type is supposed to be the 64 bit type across all
architectures.
It would be mostly used internally in the glibc - however, when passed to
Linux kernel (very unlikely), if necessary, it shall be converted to 32
bit type (i.e. __suseconds_t)

This patch updates the kernel version in the test tst-mman-consts.py
to 5.5. (There are no new constants covered by this test in 5.5 that
need any other header changes.)
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py.
Linux 5.5 has no new syscalls to add to syscall-names.list, but it
does newly enable the clone3 syscall for AArch64. This patch updates
the kernel version listed in syscall-names.list and regenerates the
AArch64 arch-syscall.h.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py.
Match up with list-fixed-bugs.py and also with the fact that many
email clients default to 72 chars when composing emails.

This patch provides new instance of Linux specific timespec_get.c file placed
in ./sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/.
When compared to this file version from ./time directory, it provides
__timespec_get64 explicit 64 bit function for getting 64 bit time in the
struct __timespec64 (for compilation using C11 standard).
Moreover, a 32 bit version - __timespec_get internally uses
__timespec_get64.
The __timespec_get is now supposed to be used on systems still supporting 32
bit time (__TIMESIZE != 64) - hence the necessary conversion to 32 bit struct
timespec.
Internally the timespec_get uses __clock_gettime64. This patch is necessary
for having architectures with __WORDSIZE == 32 Y2038 safe.

This test depends on the kernel's assignment of memory regions, but
running under ld.so explicitly changes those assignments, sometimes
sufficiently to cause the test to fail (esp with address space
randomization).
The easiest way to "fix" the test, is to run it the way the user would
- without ld.so. Running it in a container does that.

The functions __timer_gettime64 and __timer_settime64 live in librt, not
libc. Use proper hidden aliases so that the callers do not need to set up
the PLT register.
Fixes commits cae1635a70 ("y2038: linux: Provide __timer_settime64
implementation") and 562cdc19c7 ("y2038: linux: Provide __timer_gettime64
implementation").
This patch replaces auto generated wrapper (as described in
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list) for sched_rr_get_interval with one which
adds extra support for reading 64 bit time values on machines with
__TIMESIZE != 64.
There is no functional change for architectures already supporting 64 bit
time ABI.
The sched_rr_get_interval declaration in ./include/sched.h is not followed by
corresponding libc_hidden_proto(), so it has been assumed that newly introduced
syscall wrapper doesn't require libc_hidden_def() (which has been added by
template used with auto generation script).
Moreover, the code for building sched_rr_gi.c file is already placed in
./posix/Makefiles, so there was no need to add it elsewhere.
Performed tests and validation are the same as for timer_gettime() conversion
(sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/timer_gettime.c).

In testing glibc for Arm and MIPS, I see:
FAIL: misc/tst-sigcontext-get_pc
If this test - backtracing through a call to raise - is valid, then
raise needs to be built with -fasynchronous-unwind-tables (as the test
itself is) to have the required unwind information for that
backtracing to work. Adding that option, which this patch does,
causes the test for pass for Arm. For MIPS, the test still does not
pass (the backtrace has an address that is 2 bytes after the "address
in signal handler", for unknown reasons), although the patch allows a
longer backtrace to be produced.
The locale/tst-locale-locpath test unsets LANG, then runs a test with
test_wrapper_env and expects LANG to remain unset for that test. This
does not work for cross-testing with cross-test-ssh.sh when sshd (on
the system specified as an argument to cross-test-ssh.sh) is
configured to have a default LANG setting.
The general design used in cross testing, after commit
8540f6d2a7 ("Don't require test wrappers
to preserve environment variables, use more consistent environment.",
6 June 2014), is that environment settings required by tests should be
passed explicitly to $(test-wrapper-env). This patch changes
tst-locale-locpath.sh to pass an explicit LANG= rather than expecting
"unset LANG" to be in effect for the program run under
test_wrapper_env. Note that this does slightly change the environment
in which the test is run natively (empty LANG instead of unset LANG)
but that difference does not appear relevant to what it is trying to
test.
Tested for Arm that this fixes the failure seen for that test in
cross-testing.
As noted in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2019-06/msg00824.html>,
elf/tst-rtld-preload fails when cross-testing because it attempts to
run the test wrapper with itself. Unfortunately, that thread never
resulted in a complete and correct patch for that test.
This patch addresses the issues with that test more thoroughly. The
test is changed not to use the wrapper twice, including updating the
message it prints about the command it runs to be more complete and
accurate after the change; the Makefile is changed not to pass the
redundant '$(test-wrapper)' argument.
Tested for Arm that this fixes the failure seen for that test in
cross-testing.
The tests elf/tst-ifunc-fault-bindnow and elf/tst-ifunc-fault-lazy
fail in cross-testing because they run the dynamic linker directly
without using the test wrapper. This patch fixes them to use the test
wrapper instead.
Tested that this fixes the failure of those two tests for powerpc
soft-float.
The ChangeLog automation scripts were incorporated in gnulib as
vcs-to-changelog for a while now since other projects expressed the
desire to use and extend this script. In the interest of avoiding
duplication of code, drop the glibc version of gitlog-to-changelog and
use the gnulib one directly.
The only file that remains is vcstocl_quirks.py, which specifies
properties and quirks of the glibc project source code. This patch
also drops the shebang at the start of vcstocl_quirks.py since the
file is not intended to be directly executable.

The translation project coordinator Benno Schulenberg suggested that
we could save space in our tarball by trimming the generated po files
by using msgattrib and dropping all untranslated, fuzzy and obsolete
messages. This patch updates the update-translations target to do
that. Testing indicates that the current po files reduce by over 65K
lines due to this trimming.
The latest translations in the translationproject URL need to be
merged in using msgmerge for the po files to be correctly updated,
otherwise we may end up getting odd results, such as the previous
translations update. This patch adds another step to the
update-translations Makefile target which does a msgmerge of the
downloaded po file with libc.pot and then uses that as the final
result.
The build has been failing on powerpc64le-linux-gnu with GCC 10

uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
875 | EY -= EX;
| ^~
The warning is thrown because when __inv is called by __dvd *y is not
initialized and if t == 0 before calling __dbl_mp, EY will stay
uninitialized, as the function does not touch it in this case.
However, since t will be set to 1/t before calling __dbl_mp, t == 0 will
never happen, so we can instruct the compiler to ignore this case, which
suppresses the warning.
Tested on powerpc64le.
