I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 6694 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c
and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this
diagnostic from Savannah:
remote: *** pre-commit check failed ...
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
These machine-dependent inline string functions have never been on by
default, and even if they were a good idea at the time they were
introduced, they haven't really been touched in ten to fifteen years
and probably aren't a good idea on current-gen processors. Current
thinking is that this class of optimization is best left to the
compiler.
* bits/string.h, string/bits/string.h

* sysdeps/s390/bits/string.h, sysdeps/sparc/bits/string.h
* sysdeps/x86/bits/string.h: Delete file.
* string/string.h: Don't include bits/string.h.
* string/bits/string3.h: Rename to bits/string_fortified.h.
No need to undef various symbols that the removed headers
might have defined as macros.
* string/Makefile (headers): Remove bits/string.h, change
bits/string3.h to bits/string_fortified.h.
* string/string-inlines.c: Update commentary. Remove definitions
of various macros that nothing looks at anymore. Don't directly
include bits/string.h. Set _STRING_INLINE_unaligned here, based on
compiler-predefined macros.
* string/strncat.c: If STRNCAT is not defined, or STRNCAT_PRIMARY
_is_ defined, provide internal hidden alias __strncat.
* include/string.h: Declare internal hidden alias __strncat.
Only forward __stpcpy to __builtin_stpcpy if __NO_STRING_INLINES is
not defined.
* include/bits/string3.h: Rename to bits/string_fortified.h,
update to match above.
* sysdeps/i386/string-inlines.c: Define compat symbols for
everything formerly defined by sysdeps/x86/bits/string.h.
Make existing definitions into compat symbols as well.
Remove some no-longer-necessary messing around with macros.

* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/multiarch/stpcpy.c
* sysdeps/s390/multiarch/mempcpy.c
No need to define _HAVE_STRING_ARCH_mempcpy.
Do define __NO_STRING_INLINES and NO_MEMPCPY_STPCPY_REDIRECT.

Define STRNCAT_PRIMARY. Don't change definition of libc_hidden_def.
Improve strcspn performance using a much faster algorithm. It is kept simple
so it works well on most targets. It is generally at least 10 times faster
than the existing implementation on bench-strcspn on a few AArch64
implementations, and for some tests 100 times as fast (repeatedly calling
strchr on a small string is extremely slow...).
In fact the string/bits/string2.h inlines make no longer sense, as GCC
already uses strlen if reject is an empty string, strchrnul is 5 times as
fast as __strcspn_c1, while __strcspn_c2 and __strcspn_c3 are slower than
the strcspn main loop for large strings (though reject length 2-4 could be
special cased in the future to gain even more performance).
Tested on x86_64, i686, and aarch64.
* string/Version (libc): Add GLIBC_2.24.
* string/strcspn.c (strcspn): Rewrite function.
* string/bits/string2.h (strcspn): Use __builtin_strcspn.
(__strcspn_c1): Remove inline function.
(__strcspn_c2): Likewise.
(__strcspn_c3): Likewise.
* string/string-inline.c
[SHLIB_COMPAT(libc, GLIBC_2_1_1, GLIBC_2_24)] (__strcspn_c1): Add
compatibility symbol.
[SHLIB_COMPAT(libc, GLIBC_2_1_1, GLIBC_2_24)] (__strcspn_c2):
Likewise.
[SHLIB_COMPAT(libc, GLIBC_2_1_1, GLIBC_2_24)] (__strcspn_c3):
Likewise.
* sysdeps/i386/string-inlines.c: Include generic string-inlines.c.
Since glibc doesn't support i386 any more, we can move
i486/string-inlines.c to string-inlines.c.
* sysdeps/i386/i486/string-inlines.c: Moved to ...
* sysdeps/i386/string-inlines.c: Here.
