ARMv4 does not have the blx instruction, so use the BLX macro which
handles abstracting this for us.
Build tested for armv7, armv4t and armv4.

[BZ #16499]
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/clone.S: Use BLX macro instead
of blx instruction directly.
The frame pointer register is rarely used for that purpose on ARM and
applications that look at the contents of the jmp_buf may be relying
on reading an unencrypted value. For example, Ruby uses the contents
of jmp_buf to find the root set for garbage collection so relies on
this pointer value being unencrypted. Without this patch the Ruby
testsuite fails with a segmentation fault.
ports/ChangeLog.arm:
2013-01-14 Will Newton <will.newton@linaro.org>
* sysdeps/arm/__longjmp.S: Don't apply pointer encryption
to fp register.
* sysdeps/arm/setjmp.S: Likewise.
* sysdeps/arm/include/bits/setjmp.h (JMP_BUF_REGLIST): Add
fp to register list, remove a4.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/sysdep.h (PTR_MANGLE_LOAD):
New macro.
Autoconf has been deprecating configure.in for quite a long time.
Rename all our configure.in and preconfigure.in files to .ac.

Convert __longjmp code to allow building as Thumb.
ports/ChangeLog.arm:
2013-10-04 Will Newton <will.newton@linaro.org>
* sysdeps/arm/__longjmp.S (NO_THUMB): Remove define.
(__longjmp): Use Thumb supported instructions.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/____longjmp_chk.S (NO_THUMB):
Remove define.
Add support for pointer encryption in glibc internal structures in C
and assembler code. Pointer encryption is a glibc security feature
described here:
https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/PointerEncryption
The ARM implementation uses global variables instead of thread pointer
relative accesses to get the value of the pointer encryption guard
because accessing the thread pointer can be very expensive on older
ARM cores.
ports/ChangeLog.arm:
2013-10-03 Will Newton <will.newton@linaro.org>
* sysdeps/arm/__longjmp.S (__longjmp): Demangle fp, sp
and lr when restoring register values.
* sysdeps/arm/include/bits/setjmp.h (JMP_BUF_REGLIST): Remove
sp and lr from list and replace fp with a4.
* sysdeps/arm/jmpbuf-unwind.h (_jmpbuf_sp): New function.
(_JMPBUF_UNWINDS_ADJ): Call _jmpbuf_sp.
* sysdeps/arm/setjmp.S (__sigsetjmp): Mangle fp, sp and lr
before storing register values.
* sysdeps/arm/sysdep.h (LDST_GLOBAL): New macro.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/sysdep.h (PTR_MANGLE): New macro.
(PTR_DEMANGLE): Likewise. (PTR_MANGLE2): Likewise.
(PTR_DEMANGLE2): Likewise.
The mov lr, pc instruction will lose the Thumb bit from the return address
so use blx lr instead.

[BZ #15909]
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/clone.S (__clone): Use blx
instead of mov lr, pc.
This patch introduces two new convenience functions to set the default
thread attributes used for creating threads. This allows a programmer
to set the default thread attributes just once in a process and then
run pthread_create without additional attributes.
For arm this makes no difference--the result is bit-for-bit identical;
for thumb this results in smaller encodings. Perhaps it ought not and
this is in fact an assembler bug, but I also think it's clearer.
Factor out the sequence needed to call kuser_get_tls, as we can't
play subtract into pc games in thumb mode. Prepare for hard-tp,
pulling the save of LR into the macro.
There are several places in which we access negative offsets from
the thread-pointer, but thumb2 only supports positive offsets in
memory references.
Avoid duplicating the rather large macros in which these references
are embedded by abstracting out the operation.
Some routines are written with complex LDM/STM insns that cannot be
used in thumb mode, or are highly conditional requiring excessive
IT insns.
When a future patch goes in to enable thumb2 by default, this marker
will be used to override that default.
This feature is specifically for the C++ compiler to offload calling
thread_local object destructors on thread program exit, to glibc.
This is to overcome the possible complication of destructors of
thread_local objects getting called after the DSO in which they're
defined is unloaded by the dynamic linker. The DSO is marked as
'unloadable' if it has a constructed thread_local object and marked as
'unloadable' again when all the constructed thread_local objects
defined in it are destroyed.
ARM now supports loading unmarked objects from
the dynamic loader cache. Unmarked objects can
be used with the hard-float or soft-float ABI.
We must support loading unmarked objects during
the transition period from a binutils that does
not mark objects to one that does mark them with
the correct ELF flags.
