Added support for TX lock elision of pthread mutexes on s390 and
s390x. This may improve lock scaling of existing programs on TX
capable systems. The lock elision code is only built with
--enable-lock-elision=yes and then requires a GCC version supporting
the TX builtins. With lock elision default mutexes are elided via
__builtin_tbegin, if the cpu supports transactions. By default lock
elision is not enabled and the elision code is not built.
lll_unlock() will be called again if it goes to "wake_all" in
pthread_cond_broadcast(). This may make another thread which is
waiting for lock in pthread_cond_timedwait() unlock. So there are
more than one threads get the lock, it will break the shared data.
It's introduced by commit 8313cb997d2d("FUTEX_*_REQUEUE_PI support for
non-x86 code")
This patch removes the arch specific powerpc implementation and instead
uses the linux default one. Although the current powerpc implementation
already constains the required memory barriers for correct
initialization, the default implementation shows a better performance on
newer chips.
[BZ #15215] This unifies various pthread_once architecture-specific
implementations which were using the same algorithm with slightly different
implementations. It also adds missing memory barriers that are required for
correctness.
This patch moves the __PTHREAD_SPINS definition to arch specific header
since pthread_mutex_t layout is also arch specific. This leads to no
need to defining __PTHREAD_MUTEX_HAVE_ELISION and thus removing of the
undefined compiler warning.
At this point, we can only abort the process because we have already
switched credentials on other threads. Returning an error would still
leave the process in an inconsistent state.
The new xtest needs root privileges to run.
When profiling programs with lock problems with perf record -g dwarf,
libunwind can currently not backtrace through the futex and unlock
functions in pthread. This is because they use out of line sections,
and those are not correctly described in dwarf2 (I believe needs
dwarf3 or 4).
This patch first removes the out of line sections. They only save a
single jump, but cause a lot of pain. Then it converts the now inline
lock code to use the now standard gas .cfi_* commands.
With these changes libunwind/perf can backtrace through the futex
functions now.
Longer term it would be likely better to just use C futex() functions
on x86 like all the other architectures. This would clean the code up
even more.
ChangeLog:
2014-03-17 Will Newton <will.newton@linaro.org>
* nptl/sysdeps/pthread/pthread.h: Check
__PTHREAD_MUTEX_HAVE_ELISION is defined before testing
its value.
We got rid of LinuxThreads in 2005, but we didn't remove
__LT_SPINLOCK_INIT back then. Do it now.
* nptl/sysdeps/pthread/bits/libc-lockP.h [defined NOT_IN_libc
&& !defined IS_IN_libpthread && __LT_SPINNOCK_INIT != 0]:
Remove.
This is one of a several NPTL patches to build glibc on hppa.
The pthread_attr_[sg]etstack functions are defined by POSIX as
taking a stackaddr that is the lowest addressable byte of the
storage used for the stack. However, the internal iattr variable
of the same name in NPTL is actually the final stack address
as usable in the stack pointer for the machine. Therefore the
NPTL implementation must add and subtract stacksize for
_STACK_GROWS_DOWN architectures. HPPA is a _STACK_GROWS_UP
architecture and doesn't need to add or subtract anything,
the stack address *is* the lowest addressable byte of the
storage.
Tested on hppa-linux-gnu, with no regressions.
Can't impact any other targets because of the conditionals.
If nobody objects I'll check this in at the end of the week.
I can't see there being any objections to this patch except
that it introduces more code to maintain for an old architecture
(perhaps we'll get another _S_G_U target in the future?).
This patch systematically renames miscellaneous tests so their outputs
use a *.out name (unless the test is just running some glibc program
with its conventional output file name, rather than a special program
at all, as in catgets tests generating *.cat). In the case of the
iconv test test-iconvconfig, output is redirected where it wasn't
before.
In various places the "generated" variable is updated to reflect the
revised test names; in iconvdata/Makefile a typo (mmtrace-tst-loading)
is also fixed. resolv/Makefile sets both "generate" (which appears
unused) and "generated". Bitrot in the settings of these variables
could no doubt be fixed so that "make clean" after build and testing
leaves results the same as after configure (and indeed the
tests-special / xtests-special variables could be used to simplify
things, by removing those files automatically rather than listing them
manually in these variables), and "make distclean" leaves an empty
build directory, but right now it appears various files don't get
deleted. I think they are liable to continue to bitrot in the absence
of routine testing that these targets actually work, given that
building in the source directory isn't supported and that was the main
use of such makefile targets.

This patch is a revised and updated version of
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-01/msg00196.html>.
In order to generate overall summaries of the results of all tests in
the glibc testsuite, we need to identify and concatenate the files
with the results of individual tests.
Tomas Dohnalek's patch used $(common-objpfx)*/*.test-result for this.
However, the normal glibc approach is explicit enumeration of the
expected set of files with a given property, rather than all files
matching some pattern like that. Furthermore, we would like to be
able to mark tests as UNRESOLVED if the file with their results is for
some reason missing, and in future we would like to be able to mark
tests as UNSUPPORTED if they are disabled for a particular
configuration (rather than simply having them missing from the list of
tests as at present). Such handling of tests that were not run or did
not record results requires an explicit enumeration of tests.
For the tests following the default makefile rules, $(tests) (and
$(xtests)) provides such an enumeration. Others, however, are added
directly as dependencies of the "tests" and "xtests" makefile
targets. This patch changes the makefiles to put them in variables
tests-special and xtests-special, with appropriate dependencies on the
tests listed there then being added centrally.
Those variables are used in Rules and so need to be set before Rules
is included in a subdirectory makefile, which is often earlier in the
makefile than the dependencies were present before. We previously
discussed the question of where to include Rules; see the question at
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2012-11/msg00798.html>, and a
discussion in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2013-01/msg00337.html> of why
Rules is included early rather than late in subdirectory makefiles.
It was necessary to avoid an indirection through the check-abi target
and get the check-abi-* targets for individual libraries into the
tests-special variable. The intl/ test $(objpfx)tst-gettext.out,
previously built only because of dependencies from other tests, was
also added to tests-special for the same reason.
The entries in tests-special are the full makefile targets, complete
with $(objpfx) and .out. If a future change causes tests to be named
consistently with a .out suffix, this can be changed to include just
the path relative to $(objpfx), without .out.
Tested x86_64, including that the same set of files is generated in
the build directory by a build and testsuite run both before and after
the patch (except for changes to the
elf/tst-null-argv.debug.out.<number> file name), and a build with
run-built-tests=no to verify there aren't any more obvious instances
of the issue Marcus Shawcroft reported with a previous version in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-01/msg00462.html>.

In <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-01/msg00196.html> I
noted it was necessary to add includes of Makeconfig early in various
subdirectory makefiles for the tests-special variable settings added
by that patch to be conditional on configuration information. No-one
commented on the general question there of whether Makeconfig should
always be included immediately after the definition of subdir.
This patch implements that early inclusion of Makeconfig in each
directory (which is a lot easier than consistent placement of includes
of Rules). Includes are added if needed, or moved up if already
present. Subdirectory "all:" targets are removed, since Makeconfig
provides one.
There is potential for further cleanups I haven't done. Rules and
Makerules have code such as
ifneq "$(findstring env,$(origin headers))" ""
headers :=
endif
to override to empty any value of various variables that came from the
environment. I think there is a case for Makeconfig setting all the
subdirectory variables (other than subdir) to empty to ensure no
outside value is going to take effect if a subdirectory fails to
define a variable. (A list of such variables, possibly out of date
and incomplete, is in manual/maint.texi.) Rules and Makerules would
give errors if Makeconfig hadn't already been included, instead of
including it themselves. The special code to override values coming
from the environment would then be obsolete and could be removed.
Tested x86_64, including that installed binaries are identical before
and after the patch.

This patch splits makefile rules that generate a file then run cmp to
check the contents of that file into separate rules to generate and
compare the file. This simplifies making those tests generate PASS /
FAIL results, by removing the need to insert && between commands in
the test so that a $(evaluate-test) call is reached. It also avoids
the oddity of the .out file being an intermediate file rather than the
final result generated, as noted for some of these tests in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2012-10/msg00894.html>.
In many cases, the rule to run the program was no longer needed
because the default rules for running test programs on the host to
generate a .out file sufficed. (I'm not asserting the commands run
after this patch are *exactly* the same as before, simply that the
rules did nothing special that appeared deliberate or relevant to
anything about what the tests were testing. In cases where the rules
redirected stderr as well as stdout, I left the existing rule's
redirection in place to avoid changing what gets compared with the
expected results.)
It's clear there is a lot in common between the various -cmp.out rules
and it might be possible in future to refactor them into more generic
support for the case of comparing test output against a baseline.
(Some baselines are *.exp, some *.expect, some directly embedded in
the makefiles, and nptl/tst-cleanupx0.expect appears unused.)
Tested x86_64.

Support for /proc/self/task/$tid/comm as added in Linux 2.6.33,
therefore since the test tst-setgetname relies on this functionality
to operate we must skip the test in kernels < 2.6.33. We wrap the
checks with __ASSUME_PROC_PID_TASK_COMM such that in the future when
we move arch_minimum_kernel to 2.6.33 we can remove this code.
TLS in a dlopened object works fine when accessed from a signal
handler. The default kernel scheduling parameters prevents the
testcase to finish within the 4 seconds.
Tested the bigger timeout on s390 and s390x.
Since asynchronous cancellation was removed from system by

Do not enable asynchronous cancellation in system. Fixes bug 14782.
We needlessly enabled thread cancellation before it was necessary.
As
only call that needs to be guarded is waitpid which is cancellation
point we could remove cancellation altogether.
we shouldn't check asynchronous cancellation on system.
[BZ #14782]
* tst-cancel-wrappers.sh: Remove system.
This commit adds a testcase for pthread_setname_np
and pthread_getname_np. The testcase itself has
four tests to validate that these functions work
as expected. The test is only enabled for Linux
since it requires access to an alternate method
for validating the functions work.
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.
The TCB header on Intel contains a field __private_ss that is used
to efficiently implement the -fsplit-stack GCC feature.
In order to prepare for a possible future implementation of that
feature on powerpc64, we'd like to reserve a similar field in
the TCB header as well. (It would be good if this went in with
or before the ELFv2 patches to ensure that this field will be
available always in the ELFv2 environment.)
The field needs to be added at the front of tcbhead_t structure
to avoid changing the ABI; see the recent discussion when adding
the EBB fields.
