The example did not work because the null byte was not converted, and
mbrtowc was called with a zero-length input string. This results in a
(size_t) -2 return value, so the function always returns NULL.
The size computation for the heap allocation of the result was
incorrect because it did not deal with integer overflow.
Error checking was missing, and the allocated memory was not freed on
error paths. All error returns now set errno. (Note that there is an
assumption that free does not clobber errno.)
The slightly unportable comparision against (size_t) -2 to catch both
(size_t) -1 and (size_t) -2 return values is gone as well.
A null wide character needs to be stored in the result explicitly, to
terminate it.
The description in the manual is updated to deal with these finer
points. The (size_t) -2 behavior (consuming the input bytes) matches
what is specified in ISO C11.

Bug 17343 reports that stdlib/random_r.c has code with undefined
behavior because of signed integer overflow on int32_t. This patch
changes the code so that the possibly overflowing computations use
unsigned arithmetic instead.
Note that the bug report refers to "Most code" in that file. The
places changed in this patch are the only ones I found where I think
such overflow can occur.
Tested for x86_64 and x86.

This simple test uses sigaction to define a signal handler. It then
uses sigaction again to fetch the information about the same signal
handler, and check that they are consistent. This is enough to detect
mismatches between struct kernel_sigaction and the kernel version of
struct sigaction, like in BZ #23069.
Changelog:
* signal/tst-sigaction.c: New file to test BZ #23069.
* signal/Makefile (tests): Fix indentation. Add tst-sigaction.

The RISC-V kernel doesn't define SA_RESTORER, hence the kernel version
of struct sigaction doesn't have the sa_restorer field. The default
kernel_sigaction.h therefore can't be used.
This patch adds a RISC-V specific version of kernel_sigaction.h to fix
the issue. This fixes for example the libnih testsuite.
Note that this patch is not needed in master as the bug has been fixed
by commit b4a5d26d88 ("linux: Consolidate sigaction implementation").

This patch fixes the i386 sa_restorer field initialization for sigaction
syscall for kernel with vDSO. As described in bug report, i386 Linux
(and compat on x86_64) interprets SA_RESTORER clear with nonzero
sa_restorer as a request for stack switching if the SS segment is 'funny'.
This means that anything that tries to mix glibc's signal handling with
segmentation (for instance through modify_ldt syscall) is randomly broken
depending on what values lands in sa_restorer.
The testcase added is based on Linux test tools/testing/selftests/x86/ldt_gdt.c,
more specifically in do_multicpu_tests function. The main changes are:
- C11 atomics instead of plain access.
- Remove x86_64 support which simplifies the syscall handling and fallbacks.
- Replicate only the test required to trigger the issue.
Checked on i686-linux-gnu.

Unlike other nscd caches, the netgroup cache contains two types of
records - those for "iterate through a netgroup" (i.e. setnetgrent())
and those for "is this user in this netgroup" (i.e. innetgr()),
i.e. full and partial records. The timeout code assumes these records
have the same key for the group name, so that the collection of records
that is "this netgroup" can be expired as a unit.
However, the keys are not the same, as the in-netgroup key is generated
by nscd rather than being passed to it from elsewhere, and is generated
without the trailing NUL. All other keys have the trailing NUL, and as
noted in the linked BZ, debug statements confirm that two keys for the
same netgroup are added to the cache with two different lengths.
The result of this is that as records in the cache expire, the purge
code only cleans out one of the two types of entries, resulting in
stale, possibly incorrect, and possibly inconsistent cache data.
The patch simply includes the existing NUL in the computation for the
key length ('key' points to the char after the NUL, and 'group' to the
first char of the group, so 'key-group' includes the first char to the
NUL, inclusive).

On sparc32 tst-makecontext fails, as backtrace called within a context
created by makecontext to yield infinite backtrace.
Fix that the same way than nios2 by adding a nop just before

finds __setcontext's FDE in an infinite loop, due to the convention of
using 'address - 1' for FDE lookup.

Some SPE opcodes clashes with some recent PowerISA opcodes and
until recently gas did not complain about it. However binutils
recently changed it and now VLE configured gas does not support to
assembler some instruction that might class with VLE (HTM for
instance). It also does not help that glibc build hardware lock
elision support as default (regardless of assembler support).
Although runtime will not actually enables TLE on SPE hardware
(since kernel will not advertise it), I see little advantage on
adding HTM support on SPE built glibc. SPE uses an incompatible
ABI which does not allow share the same build with default
powerpc and HTM code slows down SPE without any benefict.
This patch fixes it by only building HTM when SPE configuration
is not used.

tests on a e500 hardware without any issue.
