While trying to get nptl/tst-initializers1.c to include the test skeleton, I
came across a couple of speed bumps. Firstly: after making the appropriate
changes to the test, running `make check' led to this error:
> In file included from ../malloc/malloc.h:24:0,
..
> from tst-initializers1.c:60:
> ../include/stdio.h:111:1: error: unknown type name `wint_t'
> extern wint_t __getwc_unlocked (FILE *__fp);
So, `wint_t' is used before being defined. Question: Why did test-skeleton.c
not cause this error in any of the other tests that include it?
Anyway, I noticed include/stdio.h includes stddef.h, which in turn defines
`wint_t', but only if `__need_wint_t' is defined. So I put in a
`#define __need_wint_t' before the include to get rid of the error. Is that
the correct fix?
A subsequent `make && make check' led to this second error:
> from tst-initializers1-c89.c:1:
> ../test-skeleton.c: In function `main':
> ../test-skeleton.c:356:11: error: `for' loop initial declarations are only
> allowed in C99 mode
> for (struct temp_name_list *n = temp_name_list;
Although there seem to be several other C89 no-noes in test-skeleton.c, I
needed only to fix this specific one for gcc-4.8.3 to stop complaining.
Both bo_CN and bo_IN were not compiling. The following fix
gets them into a usable state again giving a clean build
result for `make localedata/install-locales`.
Similar to various other bugs in this area, some atanh implementations
do not raise the underflow exception for subnormal arguments, when the
result is tiny and inexact. This patch forces the exception in a
similar way to previous fixes. (No change in this regard is needed
for the i386 implementation; special handling to force underflows in
these cases will only be needed there when the spurious underflows,
bug 18049, get fixed.)
Tested for x86_64, x86, powerpc and mips64.

The flt-32 implementation of tanf produces spurious underflow
exceptions for some small arguments, through computing values on the
order of x^5. This patch fixes this by adjusting the threshold for
returning x (or, as applicable, +/- 1/x) to 2**-13 (the next term in
the power series being x^3/3).
Tested for x86_64 and x86.

The flt-32 implementation of lgammaf produces spurious underflow
exceptions for some large arguments, because of calculations involving
x^-2 multiplied by small constants. This patch fixes this by
adjusting the threshold for a simpler computation to 2**26 (the error
in the simpler computation is on the order of 0.5 * log (x), for a
result on the order of x * log (x)).

The flt-32 implementation of erfcf produces spurious underflow
exceptions for some arguments close to 0, because of calculations
squaring the argument and then multiplying by small constants. This
patch fixes this by adjusting the threshold for arguments for which
the result is so close to 1 that 1 - x will give the right result from
2**-56 to 2**-26. (If 1 - x * 2/sqrt(pi) were used, the errors would be
on the order of x^3 and a much larger threshold could be used.)

The sysdeps/ieee754/flt-32 version of atanf produces spurious
underflow exceptions for some large arguments, because of computations
that compute x^-4. This patch fixes this by adjusting the threshold
for large arguments (for which +/- pi/2 can just be returned, the
correct result being roughly +/- pi/2 - 1/x) from 2^34 to 2^25.
Tested for x86_64 and x86.

Similar to various other bugs in this area, some log1p implementations
do not raise the underflow exception for subnormal arguments, when the
result is tiny and inexact. This patch forces the exception in a
similar way to previous fixes. (The ldbl-128ibm implementation
doesn't currently need any change as it already generates this
exception, albeit through code that would generate spurious exceptions
in other cases; special code for this issue will only be needed there
when fixing the spurious exceptions.)

This patch prepares for the strcoll benchmark by moving the makefile
code for generating the locale files into a standalone snippet that
can be used elsewhere.
To make a strtok faster and improve performance in general we need to do one
additional change.
A comment:
/* It doesn't make sense to send libc-internal strcspn calls through a PLT.
The speedup we get from using SSE4.2 instruction is likely eaten away
by the indirect call in the PLT. */
Does not make sense at all because nobody bothered to check it. Gap
between these implementations is quite big, when haystack is empty a
sse2 is around 40 cycles slower because it needs to populate a lookup
table and difference only increases with size. That is much bigger than
plt slowdown which is few cycles.
Even benchtest show a gap which also may be reverse by branch
misprediction but my internal benchmark shown.

For mips16, some of the linknamespace tests were failing because
[MIPS16] annotations in readelf output were wrongly interpreted as
falling in the symbol index field, meaning symbol index values were
wrongly interpreted as symbol names and such names as 1 and 2 then
resulted in namespace test failures.
This patch fixes this by removing the annotations for such
architecture-specific st_other bits before splitting the readelf
output into fields. Tested for x86_64 and mips16.
* conform/linknamespace.pl (list_syms): Remove \[.*?\] before
splitting into fields.
Programs are supposed to be able to define the __fpu_control variable,
overriding the library's version to cause the floating-point control
word to be set to the chosen value at startup.
This is broken for mips16 for static linking because the library's
__fpu_control variable is in the same object file as the helper
functions used by fpu_control.h for mips16, so test-fpucw-ieee-static
fails to link with multiple definitions of __fpu_control.
This patch fixes this by putting the helpers in a separate file rather
than overriding fpu_control.c. Tested for mips16 that this fixes the
link failure and the ABI tests still pass.

There appears to be a discrepancy among the implementations
of setcontext with regards to the function called once the last
linked-to context has finished executing via setcontext.
The POSIX standard says:
~~~
If the uc_link member of the ucontext_t structure pointed to by
the ucp argument is equal to 0, then this context is the main
context, and the thread will exit when this context returns.
~~~
It says "exit" not "exit immediately" nor "exit without running
functions registered with atexit or on_exit."
Therefore the AArch64, ARM, hppa and NIOS II implementations are
wrong and no test detects it.
It is questionable if this should even be fixed or just documented
that the above 4 targets are wrong. The functions are deprecated
and nobody should be using them, but at the same time it silly to
have cross-target differences that make it hard to port old
applications from say x86_64 to AArch64.
Therefore I will ix the 4 arches, and checkin a regression
test to prevent it from changing again.
