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
This generic implementation already expects a getdents API which
is Linux specific. It also allows simplify it by assuming
_DIRENT_HAVE_D_RECLEN and _DIRENT_HAVE_D_OFF support.
The readdir are also expanded on each required implementation,
futher fixes and improvements will make parametrize the
implementation more complex.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, and with a build
for all affected ABIs.
