../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright

I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,
support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and
sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't
know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not.

_init and _fini are special functions provided by glibc for linker to
define DT_INIT and DT_FINI in executable and shared library. They
should never be put in dynamic symbol table. This patch marks them as
hidden to remove them from dynamic symbol table.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py.

This updates glibc for the changes in the ELFv2 relating to the
stack frame layout. These are described in more detail here:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2013-11/msg01149.htmlhttp://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2013-11/msg01146.html
Specifically, the "compiler and linker doublewords" were removed,
which has the effect that the save slot for the TOC register is
now at offset 24 rather than 40 to the stack pointer.
In addition, a function may now no longer necessarily assume that
its caller has set up a 64-byte register save area its use.
To address the first change, the patch goes through all assembler
files and replaces immediate offsets in instructions accessing the
ABI-defined stack slots by symbolic offsets. Those already were
defined in ucontext_i.sym and used in some of the context routines,
but that doesn't really seem like the right place for those defines.
The patch instead defines those symbolic offsets in sysdeps.h,
in two variants for the old and new ABI, and uses them systematically
in all assembler files, not just the context routines.
The second change only affected a few assembler files that used
the save area to temporarily store some registers. In those
cases where this happens within a leaf function, this patch
changes the code to store those registers to the "red zone"
below the stack pointer. Otherwise, the functions already allocate
a stack frame, and the patch changes them to add extra space in
these frames as temporary space for the ELFv2 ABI.
This patch adds support for the ELFv2 ABI feature to remove function
descriptors. See this GCC patch for in-depth discussion:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2013-11/msg01141.html
This mostly involves two types of changes: updating assembler source
files to the new logic, and updating the dynamic loader.
After the refactoring in the previous patch, most of the assembler source
changes can be handled simply by providing ELFv2 versions of the
macros in sysdep.h. One somewhat non-obvious change is in __GI__setjmp:
this used to "fall through" to the immediately following __setjmp ENTRY
point. This is no longer safe in the ELFv2 since ENTRY defines both
a global and a local entry point, and you cannot simply fall through
to a global entry point as it requires r12 to be set up.
Also, makecontext needs to be updated to set up registers according to
the new ABI for calling into the context's start routine.
The dynamic linker changes mostly consist of removing special code
to handle function descriptors. We also need to support the new PLT
and glink format used by the the ELFv2 linker, see:
https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2013-10/msg00376.html
In addition, the dynamic linker now verifies that the dynamic libraries
it loads match its own ABI.
The hack in VDSO_IFUNC_RET to "synthesize" a function descriptor
for vDSO routines is also no longer necessary for ELFv2.
This is the first patch to support the new ELFv2 ABI in glibc.
As preparation, this patch simply refactors some of the powerpc64 assembler
code to move all code related to creating function descriptors (.opd section)
or using function descriptors (function pointer call) into a central place
in sysdep.h.
Note that most locations creating .opd entries were already using macros
in sysdep.h, this patch simply extends this to the remaining places.
No relevant change in generated code expected.
