In _dl_runtime_resolve, use fxsave/xsave/xsavec to preserve all vector,
mask and bound registers. It simplifies _dl_runtime_resolve and supports
different calling conventions. ld.so code size is reduced by more than
1 KB. However, use fxsave/xsave/xsavec takes a little bit more cycles
than saving and restoring vector and bound registers individually.
Latency for _dl_runtime_resolve to lookup the function, foo, from one
shared library plus libc.so:
Before After Change
Westmere (SSE)/fxsave 345 866 151%
IvyBridge (AVX)/xsave 420 643 53%
Haswell (AVX)/xsave 713 1252 75%
Skylake (AVX+MPX)/xsavec 559 719 28%
Skylake (AVX512+MPX)/xsavec 145 272 87%
Ryzen (AVX)/xsavec 280 553 97%
This is the worst case where portion of time spent for saving and
restoring registers is bigger than majority of cases. With smaller
_dl_runtime_resolve code size, overall performance impact is negligible.
On IvyBridge, differences in build and test time of binutils with lazy
binding GCC and binutils are noises. On Westmere, differences in
bootstrap and "makc check" time of GCC 7 with lazy binding GCC and
binutils are also noises.

Before glibc 2.26, ld.so set dl_platform to "x86_64" and searched the
"x86_64" subdirectory when loading a shared library. ld.so in glibc
2.26 was changed to set dl_platform to "haswell" or "xeon_phi", based
on supported ISAs. This led to shared library loading failure for
shared libraries placed under the "x86_64" subdirectory.
This patch adds "x86_64" to x86-64 dl_hwcap so that ld.so will always
search the "x86_64" subdirectory when loading a shared library.
NB: We can't set x86-64 dl_platform to "x86-64" since ld.so will skip
the "haswell" and "xeon_phi" subdirectories on "haswell" and "xeon_phi"
machines.

The current IFUNC selection is based on microbenchmarks in glibc. It
should give the best performance for most workloads. But other choices
may have better performance for a particular workload or on the hardware
which wasn't available at the selection was made. The environment
variable, GLIBC_TUNABLES=glibc.tune.ifunc=-xxx,yyy,-zzz...., can be used
to enable CPU/ARCH feature yyy, disable CPU/ARCH feature yyy and zzz,
where the feature name is case-sensitive and has to match the ones in
cpu-features.h. It can be used by glibc developers to override the
IFUNC selection to tune for a new processor or improve performance for
a particular workload. It isn't intended for normal end users.
NOTE: the IFUNC selection may change over time. Please check all
multiarch implementations when experimenting.
Also, GLIBC_TUNABLES=glibc.tune.x86_non_temporal_threshold=NUMBER is

The LD_HWCAP_MASK environment variable was ignored in static binaries,

ld_hwcap_mask being read early enough to influence anything but now
that it is in tunables, the mask is usable in static binaries as well.

dl_platform and dl_hwcap are set from AT_PLATFORM and AT_HWCAP very
early during startup. They are used by dynamic linker to determine
platform and build an array of hardware capability names, which are
added to search path when loading shared object. dl_platform and
dl_hwcap are unused on x86-64. On i386, i386, i486, i586 and i686
platforms were supported and only SSE2 capability was used.
On x86, usage of AT_PLATFORM and AT_HWCAP to determine platform and
processor capabilities is obsolete since all information is available
in dl_x86_cpu_features. This patch sets dl_platform and dl_hwcap from
dl_x86_cpu_features in dynamic linker. On i386, the available plaforms
are changed to i586 and i686 since i386 has been deprecated. On x86-64,
the available plaforms are haswell, which is for Haswell class processors
with BMI1, BMI2, LZCNT, MOVBE, POPCNT, AVX2 and FMA, and xeon_phi, which
is for Xeon Phi class processors with AVX512F, AVX512CD, AVX512ER and

On Skylake server, AVX512 load/store instructions in memcpy/memset may
lead to lower CPU turbo frequency in certain situations. Use of AVX2
in memcpy/memset has been observed to have improved overall performance

Since AVX512ER is unique to Xeon Phi, this patch sets Prefer_No_AVX512

In the Intel Architecture Instruction Set Extensions Programming
reference the recommended way to test for FMA in section
'2.2.1 Detection of FMA' is:
"Application Software must identify that hardware supports AVX as
explained in ... after that it must also detect support for FMA..."
We don't do that in glibc. We use osxsave to detect the use of xgetbv,
and after that we check for AVX and FMA orthogonally. It is conceivable
that you could have the AVX bit clear and the FMA bit in an undefined
state.
This commit fixes FMA and AVX2 detection to depend on usable AVX
as required by the recommended Intel sequences.

There is transition penalty when SSE instructions are mixed with 256-bit
AVX or 512-bit AVX512 load instructions. Since _dl_runtime_resolve_avx
and _dl_runtime_profile_avx512 save/restore 256-bit YMM/512-bit ZMM
registers, there is transition penalty when SSE instructions are used
with lazy binding on AVX and AVX512 processors.
To avoid SSE transition penalty, if only the lower 128 bits of the first
8 vector registers are non-zero, we can preserve %xmm0 - %xmm7 registers
with the zero upper bits.
For AVX and AVX512 processors which support XGETBV with ECX == 1, we can
use XGETBV with ECX == 1 to check if the upper 128 bits of YMM registers
or the upper 256 bits of ZMM registers are zero. We can restore only the
non-zero portion of vector registers with AVX/AVX512 load instructions
which will zero-extend upper bits of vector registers.
This patch adds _dl_runtime_resolve_sse_vex which saves and restores
XMM registers with 128-bit AVX store/load instructions. It is used to
preserve YMM/ZMM registers when only the lower 128 bits are non-zero.
_dl_runtime_resolve_avx_opt and _dl_runtime_resolve_avx512_opt are added
and used on AVX/AVX512 processors supporting XGETBV with ECX == 1 so
that we store and load only the non-zero portion of vector registers.
This avoids SSE transition penalty caused by _dl_runtime_resolve_avx and
_dl_runtime_profile_avx512 when only the lower 128 bits of vector
registers are used.
_dl_runtime_resolve_avx_slow is added and used for AVX processors which
don't support XGETBV with ECX == 1. Since there is no SSE transition
penalty on AVX512 processors which don't support XGETBV with ECX == 1,
_dl_runtime_resolve_avx512_slow isn't provided.

Fast_Unaligned_Copy with Fast_Unaligned_Load for Intel
processors. Set Fast_Copy_Backward for AMD Excavator
processors.
* sysdeps/x86/cpu-features.h (bit_arch_Fast_Unaligned_Copy):
New.
(index_arch_Fast_Unaligned_Copy): Likewise.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/memcpy.S (__new_memcpy): Check
Fast_Unaligned_Copy instead of Fast_Unaligned_Load.
Since only Intel processors with AVX2 have fast unaligned load, we
should set index_arch_AVX_Fast_Unaligned_Load only for Intel processors.
Move AVX, AVX2, AVX512, FMA and FMA4 detection into get_common_indeces
and call get_common_indeces for other processors.
Add CPU_FEATURES_CPU_P and CPU_FEATURES_ARCH_P to aoid loading
GLRO(dl_x86_cpu_features) in cpu-features.c.
[BZ #19583]
* sysdeps/x86/cpu-features.c (get_common_indeces): Remove
inline. Check family before setting family, model and
extended_model. Set AVX, AVX2, AVX512, FMA and FMA4 usable
bits here.
(init_cpu_features): Replace HAS_CPU_FEATURE and
HAS_ARCH_FEATURE with CPU_FEATURES_CPU_P and
CPU_FEATURES_ARCH_P. Set index_arch_AVX_Fast_Unaligned_Load
for Intel processors with usable AVX2. Call get_common_indeces
for other processors with family == NULL.
* sysdeps/x86/cpu-features.h (CPU_FEATURES_CPU_P): New macro.
(CPU_FEATURES_ARCH_P): Likewise.
(HAS_CPU_FEATURE): Use CPU_FEATURES_CPU_P.
(HAS_ARCH_FEATURE): Use CPU_FEATURES_ARCH_P.
index_* and bit_* macros are used to access cpuid and feature arrays o
struct cpu_features. It is very easy to use bits and indices of cpuid
array on feature array, especially in assembly codes. For example,
sysdeps/i386/i686/multiarch/bcopy.S has
HAS_CPU_FEATURE (Fast_Rep_String)
which should be
HAS_ARCH_FEATURE (Fast_Rep_String)
We change index_* and bit_* to index_cpu_*/index_arch_* and
bit_cpu_*/bit_arch_* so that we can catch such error at build time.
[BZ #19762]
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/64/dl-librecon.h
(EXTRA_LD_ENVVARS): Add _arch_ to index_*/bit_*.

GLIBC benchtest testcases shows SSE2_Unaligned based implementations
are performing faster compare to SSE2 based implementations for
routines: strcmp, strcat, strncat, stpcpy, stpncpy, strcpy, strncpy
and strstr. Flag index_Fast_Unaligned_Load is set for Excavator family
0x15h CPU's. This makes SSE2_Unaligned based implementations as
default for these routines.
[BZ #19467]
* sysdeps/x86/cpu-features.c (init_cpu_features): Set
index_Fast_Unaligned_Load flag for Excavator family CPUs.
It shows improvement up to 28% over AVX2 memset (performance results
attached at <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-12/msg00052.html>).

Knights Landing processor is based on Silvermont. This patch enables
Silvermont optimizations for Knights Landing.
* sysdeps/x86/cpu-features.c (init_cpu_features): Enable
Silvermont optimizations for Knights Landing.
AMD CPUs uses the similar encoding scheme for extended family and model
as Intel CPUs as shown in:
http://support.amd.com/TechDocs/25481.pdf
This patch updates get_common_indeces to get family and model for both
Intel and AMD CPUs when family == 0x0f.
[BZ #19214]
* sysdeps/x86/cpu-features.c (get_common_indeces): Add an
argument to return extended model. Update family and model
with extended family and model when family == 0x0f.
(init_cpu_features): Updated.
We detect i586 and i686 features at run-time by checking CX8 and CMOV
CPUID features bits. We can use these information to select the best
implementation in ix86 multiarch. HAS_I586/HAS_I686 is true if i586/i686
instructions are available on the processor.
Due to the reordering and the other nifty extensions in i686, it is not
really good to use heavily i586 optimized code on an i686. It's better
to use i486 code if it isn't an i586. USE_I586/USE_I686 is true if
i586/i686 implementation should be used for the processor. USE_I586
is true only if i686 instructions aren't available. If i686 instructions
are available, we always choose i686 or i486 implementation, in that order,
and we never choose i586 implementation for i686-class processors.

cpuid, i586 and i686 instructions are available if the processor
specified by -march= supports them. We can use this information
to determine whether those instructions can be used safely.
* sysdeps/x86/cpu-features.c (init_cpu_features): Check
whether cpuid is available only if HAS_CPUID is 0.
* sysdeps/x86/cpu-features.h (HAS_CPUID): New.
(HAS_I586): Likewise.

Since not all i486 processors support cpuid, we call __get_cpuid_max to
check if cpuid is available before using it if not compiling for i586,
i686 nor x86-64.
* sysdeps/x86/cpu-features.c (init_cpu_features): Call
__get_cpuid_max if not compiling for i586, i686 nor x86-64.
