The tunables framework allows us to uniformly manage and expose global
variables inside glibc as switches to users. tunables/README has
instructions for glibc developers to add new tunables.
Tunables support can be enabled by passing the --enable-tunables
configure flag to the configure script. This patch only adds a
framework and does not pose any limitations on how tunable values are
read from the user. It also adds environment variables used in malloc
behaviour tweaking to the tunables framework as a PoC of the
compatibility interface.

When build-many-glibcs.py re-execs itself with execv, any buffered
output on stdout may be lost (in particular, messages intended to go
to a bot's log about the re-exec taking place). This patch makes it
flush stdout before execv, similar to the flush before running a
subprocess from the bot that is done to ensure output appears in the
right order.
* scripts/build-many-glibcs.py (Context.exec_self): Flush stdout
before calling execv.
This patch updates build-many-glibcs.py to use Linux 4.9 for kernel
headers unless another version is explicitly specified. Note that
when a version changes like this you'll need to use --replace-sources
when updating an existing checkout to tell build-many-glibcs.py it's
OK to delete and replace the sources of a component for which the
version used has changed.
* scripts/build-many-glibcs.py (Context.checkout): Default Linux
kernel version to 4.9.
For many years, the only effect of these macros has been to make
unistd.h declare getlogin_r. _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 199506L also causes
this function to be declared. However, people who don't carefully
read all the headers might be confused into thinking they need to
define _REENTRANT for any threaded code (as was indeed the case a long
time ago).
Therefore, remove __USE_REENTRANT, and make _REENTRANT and _THREAD_SAFE
into synonyms for _POSIX_C_SOURCE=199506L. This will only affect
programs that don't select a higher conformance level some other way.
For instance, -std=c89 -D_REENTRANT will see a change in visible
declarations, but -std=c99 -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=200809L -D_REENTRANT won't,
and -D_REENTRANT all by itself also won't, because _DEFAULT_SOURCE
implies _POSIX_C_SOURCE > 199506.
* include/features.h: Remove __USE_REENTRANT. Treat _REENTRANT
and _THREAD_SAFE the same as _POSIX_C_SOURCE=199506L, if a higher
POSIX conformance level has not been selected by other macros.
* NEWS, manual/creature.texi: Document this change.
* posix/unistd.h, posix/bits/unistd.h: Don't check __USE_REENTRANT.
* include/libc-symbols.h: Don't define _REENTRANT.
* scripts/check-installed-headers.sh: Don't undefine _REENTRANT.
This patch adds pretty printers for the following NPTL types:
- pthread_mutex_t
- pthread_mutexattr_t
- pthread_cond_t
- pthread_condattr_t
- pthread_rwlock_t
- pthread_rwlockattr_t
To load the pretty printers into your gdb session, do the following:
python
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, '/path/to/glibc/build/nptl/pretty-printers')
end
source /path/to/glibc/source/pretty-printers/nptl-printers.py
You can check which printers are registered and enabled by issuing the
'info pretty-printer' gdb command. Printers should trigger automatically when
trying to print a variable of one of the types mentioned above.
The printers are architecture-independent, and were tested on an AMD64 running
Ubuntu 14.04 and an x86 VM running Fedora 24.
In order to work, the printers need to know the values of various flags that
are scattered throughout pthread.h and pthreadP.h as enums and #defines. Since
replicating these constants in the printers file itself would create a
maintenance burden, I wrote a script called gen-py-const.awk that Makerules uses
to extract the constants. This script is pretty much the same as gen-as-const.awk,
except it doesn't cast the constant values to 'long' and is thorougly documented.
The constants need only to be enumerated in a .pysym file, which is then referenced
by a Make variable called gen-py-const-headers.
As for the install directory, I discussed this with Mike Frysinger and Siddhesh
Poyarekar, and we agreed that it can be handled in a separate patch, and shouldn't
block merging of this one.
In addition, I've written a series of test cases for the pretty printers.
Each lock type (mutex, condvar and rwlock) has two test programs, one for itself
and other for its related 'attributes' object. Each test program in turn has a
PExpect-based Python script that drives gdb and compares its output to the
expected printer's. The tests run on the glibc host, which is assumed to have
both gdb and PExpect; if either is absent the tests will fail with code 77
(UNSUPPORTED). For cross-testing you should use cross-test-ssh.sh as test-wrapper.
I've tested the printers on both native builds and a cross build using a Beaglebone
Black running Debian, with the build system's filesystem shared with the board
through NFS.
Finally, I've written a README that explains all this and more.
* INSTALL: Regenerated.

This patch adds a --strip option to build-many-glibcs.py, to make it
strip the installed shared libraries after installation. This is for
convenience if you want to compare installed stripped shared libraries
before and after a patch that was not meant to result in any code
changes: you can run with this option, copy the install/glibcs
directory, run again with the patch and compare the */lib*
subdirectory contents.
(It might make sense for the option to strip libraries in other
directories, including stripping debug information from static
libraries, with a view to making it possible for a
no-generated-code-changes patch to result in completely identical
install/glibcs directories, so simplifying comparison, though that may
need other build determinism changes, e.g. to build deterministic .a
files.)
* scripts/build-many-glibcs.py (Context.__init__): Take strip
argument.
(Glibc.build_glibc): Strip installed shared libraries if
requested.
(get_parser): Add --strip option.
(main): Update Context call.
This patch makes build-many-glibcs.py support a "bot" action, for
repeatedly running a checkout and build cycle.
Two new configuration variables are used in bot-config.json. "delay"
indicates the time to sleep after each bot-cycle round (regardless of
whether that round actually ran any builds); "run" is a boolean, which
is false if the bot should just exit (the point of this is that you
can edit bot-config.json to set this to false to cause a running bot
to exit cleanly between builds) and true if the bot should run. The
bot does not exit if the bot-cycle process exits with error status
(that can occur when sourceware's load limiting means anonymous
version control access fails, for example), just sleeps until it's
time to try again.
The script is changed to flush stdout before running a subprocess in
bot-cycle, so that when output is redirected (as expected for a bot)
the status messages from bot-cycle appear in their proper position in
its redirected output relative to the output from the subprocesses
run, and to copy the logs directory before running builds in bot-cycle
so that the logs from at least one complete build are always available
for looking at how something failed, even while the next build is
running.
* scripts/build-many-glibcs.py: Add bot to usage message. Import
time module.
(Context.__init__): Initialize self.logsdir_old.
(Context.run_builds): Handle bot action.
(Context.bot_cycle): Copy logs directory before running builds.
(Context.bot_run_self): Take argument for whether to check
subprocess result. Flush stdout before running subprocess.
(Context.bot): New function.
(get_parser): Allow bot action.
This patch continues the process of setting up build-many-glibcs.py to
run as a bot monitoring for and reporting on build issues by adding a
bot-cycle action to the script. When this action is used, it will run
the checkout action (re-execing itself if it was changed by that
action), then rebuild whichever of host-libraries, compilers, glibcs
should be rebuilt based on changed versions, time elapsed and state of
previous builds. Email is sent with the results of the build (for
each build action done).
The rebuild logic is: if previous build time or versions aren't
recorded, rebuild that component. If the script has changed, rebuild
everything. If any relevant component version has changed, rebuild,
except for not rebuilding compilers if the time indicated in the bot
configuration has not passed since the last build of the compilers.
If one piece is rebuilt then rebuild subsequent pieces as well.
Using bot-cycle requires a configuration file bot-config.json in the
toplevel directory used by build-many-glibcs.py. It might contain
e.g.
{
"compilers-rebuild-delay": 604800,
"email-from": "Example Name <user@example.org>",
"email-server": "localhost",
"email-subject": "GCC 6 %(action)s %(build-time)s build results",
"email-to": "libc-testresults@sourceware.org"
}
My next intended step is adding a further action "bot" which loops
running bot-cycle then sleeping for an amount of time given in
bot-config.json. Then I'll set up a bot using that action (building
with GCC 6 branch; a bot using GCC mainline may wait until the SH
out-of-memory issues
<https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=78460> are fixed; I
expect the bot to mail to me until it seems ready to switch to mailing
to gcc-testresults).
* scripts/build-many-glibcs.py: Add bot-cycle to usage message.
Import email.mime.text, email.utils and smtplib modules.

(get_parser): Allow bot-cycle action.
This patch makes build-many-glibcs.py store information about builds
in JSON format. This is part of preparing it for use in a bot
checking for regressions.
The information stored is: time of last build (of host-libraries,
compilers or glibcs); versions of components used in the last build
(for compilers, host library versions are properly copied from those
used for the previous host-libraries build, and for glibcs, component
versions other than that of glibc are similarly copied from the last
compilers build); PASS/FAIL/UNRESOLVED results of the individual build
steps; a list of changed results; a list of tests (that are still run
at all) that have ever been recorded to PASS.
The first pieces of information are intended to be used by a bot to
decide whether a rebuild is appropriate (based on some combination of
elapsed time and changes to versions; a bot might want to rebuild
glibcs if there had been any change but only rebuild compilers after
enough time had elapsed, for example). All the information is
intended to be used in generating mails with results information.
This state is specifically for full builds (no individual configs for
building compilers or glibcs specified). If individual configs are
specified, build-time and build-versions information is cleared (since
it will no longer accurately reflect the install directory contents),
while the other information is left unchanged. This reflects the
motivation of providing information for a bot checking for
regressions; the contents of build-state.json in a tree used for
manual builds that may be only for some configurations are not
particularly important.
* scripts/build-many-glibcs.py: Import datetime module.
(Context.__init__): Load JSON build state. Initialize list of
status logs.

Updating build-many-glibcs.py may result in changes to the default
versions of components, or to the set of components (if e.g. Hurd
support is added and that requires a new component).
It's desirable for the checkout process to leave a source tree that is
ready to use. If the checkout updated the script itself, that means
it needs to be rerun to cause any new versions or components
referenced by the new script version to be properly checked out. This
patch makes the script check if it was modified by the checkout
process, and re-exec itself (with the same arguments) if so.
* scripts/build-many-glibcs.py (Context.__init__): Save text of
script being executed.
(Context.get_script_text): New function.
(Context.exec_self): Likewise.
(Context.checkout): Re-exec script if changed by checkout process.
This patch makes build-many-glibcs.py record the component versions
checked out, and whether those versions were explicitly requested or
defaults, in a file versions.json in the source directory.
The preferred version of a component is the first of: one explicitly
specified on the command line; one explicitly specified on the command
line in a previous run of build-many-glibcs.py; a default version for
that component. Thus, once you've run build-many-glibcs.py checkout
once with the updated script (making sure to specify the right
versions of any components previously checked out with a non-default
version), in future you can just run it without version specifiers and
it will know when a default-version component has changed its default
version and so should be checked out again.
Because you might have local changes and not want a default-version
component checkout replaced, you need to pass the --replace-sources
option to allow the script to delete and replace a component source
directory automatically; otherwise, it will give an error if a version
has changed. The script does not try to change branches of git or SVN
checkouts without checking out from scratch; if the version number
requested has changed and --replace-sources is used, the relevant
source directory will be removed completely and a new one checked out
from scratch.
Apart from allowing automatic updates of components with default
versions, this also facilitates bots reporting on the versions used in
a given build. versions.json contains not just information on the
version number and whether that was requested explicitly, but also git
or SVN revision information intended to be used in email reports from
bots.
* scripts/build-many-glibcs.py: Import json module.

My most recent build-many-glibcs.py build with GCC mainline showed
build failures for tilepro with the symptoms (multiple definitions of
symbols building ld.so, see the build log referenced in the GCC bug
referenced in the comment for an example) that correspond to the
isolate-erroneous-paths optimization not being suitable for building
glibc unless the GCC port provides a trap pattern (so __builtin_trap
expands to an inline instruction rather than a call to abort). Since
tilepro indeed lacks such as pattern in GCC, this patch duly arranges
for this optimization to be disabled when building for tilepro, as it
is for sh.
Tested (compilation only) for tilepro.
* scripts/build-many-glibcs.py (Context.add_all_configs): Also use
-fno-isolate-erroneous-paths options for tilepro.
As requested in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-11/msg00664.html>, this
patch makes the commands recorded in build-many-glibcs.py quote words
so they can be cut-and-pasted back into a shell. (Note that these
logs are generated by the wrapper script generated to run commands
with logs, hence the needs for quoting logic to be implemented in that
shell script.)
* scripts/build-many-glibcs.py (Context.write_files): Make wrapper
script quote words in command output to log suitably for input to
the shell.
This patch adds the missing GCC configure options required to make use
of the newly built host libraries in build-many-glibcs.py.
* scripts/build-many-glibcs.py (Config.build_gcc): Configure with
newly built gmp, mpfr and mpc.
* scripts/build-many-glibcs.py (os.path): Do not import.
(Context): Inherit explicitly from object. Remove blank line
between class and docstring.
(Config): Likewise.
(Glibc): Likewise.
(Command): Likewise.
(CommandList): Likewise.
(Context.write_files): Store chmod mode in a variable.
This patch adds a Python (3.5 or later) script to build many different
configurations of glibc, including building the required cross
compilers first. It's not intended to change any patch testing
requirements, although some people may wish to use it for high-risk
patches such as adding warning options (and it can also be used to
test building, including compiling tests, for an individual
configuration, if e.g. you wish to do such a compilation test of a
patch for an architecture it touches).
The configurations include all the GNU/Linux ABI variants in
<https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/ABIList> (although some do not yet
build cleanly) and it would be desirable to cover enough other
variants e.g. for CPUs using different sysdeps directories to test
building each piece of code in glibc at least once. It would also be
desirable to extend it to cover Hurd and NaCl, which might best be
done by people familiar with those configurations.
You call the script as
build-many-glibcs.py /some/where thing-to-do <other-arguments>
where /some/where is a working directory for the script. It will
create and use subdirectories build, install, logs therein. You can
use it with thing-to-do being "checkout" to create a subdirectory src
therein, with subdirectories binutils, gcc, glibc, gmp, linux, mpc,
mpfr with the sources of those components, or create those directories
manually (all except glibc can be symlinks to sources elsewhere). In
the checkout case, by default it checks out GCC 6 branch, binutils
2.27 branch, glibc mainline and releases of other components. You can
specify <component>-<version> to choose a version to check out, where
<version> is "vcs-mainline" or "vcs-<branch>" to check out from
version control (only supported for gcc, binutils, glibc) and
otherwise a release version number to download and use a tarball;
components not specified on the command line have default versions
checked out. If you rerun "checkout" (with the same version
specifications) it will update checkouts from version control, but
will not detect cases where the location something is expected to be
checked out from has changed.
Other than "checkout", thing-to-do is one of host-libraries,
compilers, glibcs. So you run, in that order:
build-many-glibcs.py /some/where host-libraries
build-many-glibcs.py /some/where compilers
build-many-glibcs.py /some/where glibcs
host-libraries is run once and then those libraries are used for all
the compilers. compilers can be run once and then used many times for
testing different glibc versions (so a bot only needs to update glibc
and rerun the glibcs task, if using stable GCC / binutils; if testing
the latest versions of the whole toolchain together including mainline
GCC, it would probably want to update everything and rerun both
compilers and glibcs). You can also name particular variants after
"compilers" or "glibcs" to build just those variants (the possible
variants are hardcoded in the script).
I may add support for allowing the set of configurations to depend on
the GCC version (to get cleaner default results), and optionally
looping over architecture-independent glibc variants of CFLAGS and
configure options as well, for every glibc configuration listed
(e.g. -Os).
GCC versions before 4.9 are not expected to work (the code uses
--with-glibc-version to get the bootstrap GCC appropriately
configured). There are various problems for particular configurations
as well.
Command-line options to the script: -jN to run N jobs in parallel
(default the number of CPU cores reported by the system); --keep=all
or --keep=failed to control keeping around build directories (default
--keep=none).
* scripts/build-many-glibcs.py: New file.
check-installed-headers tests were failing for x32 because of the x86
bits/sysctl.h containing a #error for x32. This patch makes the tests
ignore sys/sysctl.h for x32, similar to the other special-casing of
particular headers.
Tested for x86_64 (full testing for -m64, compile-only for x32).
* scripts/check-installed-headers.sh: Ignore sys/sysctl.h for x32.
This adds a test to ensure that the problems fixed in the last several
patches do not recur. Each directory checks the headers that it
installs for two properties: first, each header must be compilable in
isolation, as both C and C++, under a representative combination of
language and library conformance levels; second, there is a blacklist
of identifiers that may not appear in any installed header, currently
consisting of the legacy BSD typedefs. (There is an exemption for the
headers that define those typedefs, and for the RPC headers. It may be
necessary to make this more sophisticated if we add more stuff to the
blacklist in the future.)
In order for this test to work correctly, every wrapper header
that actually defines something must guard those definitions with
#ifndef _ISOMAC. This is the existing mechanism used by the conform/
tests to tell wrapper headers not to define anything that the public
header wouldn't, and not to use anything from libc-symbols.h. conform/
only cares for headers that we need to check for standards conformance,
whereas this test applies to *every* header. (Headers in include/ that
are either installed directly, or are internal-use-only and do *not*
correspond to any installed header, are not affected.)
* scripts/check-installed-headers.sh: New script.
* Rules: In each directory that defines header files to be installed,

Add #ifndef _ISOMAC guard around internal declarations.
Add multiple-inclusion guard if not already present.
rtld only needs shared objects, so the other patterns are pointless and
significantly increase the work make has to perform while identifying
which pattern rule to apply.
This reverts commit 62ce266b0b.
The change is not mature enough because it needs the following fixes:
1. Redirect test output to a file like other tests
2. Eliminate the need to use a .gdbinit because distributions will
break without it. I should have caught that but I was in too much
of a hurry to get the patch in :/
3. Feature checking during configure to determine things like minimum
required gdb version, python-pexpect version, etc. to make sure
that tests work correctly.
This patch adds pretty printers for the following NPTL types:
- pthread_mutex_t
- pthread_mutexattr_t
- pthread_cond_t
- pthread_condattr_t
- pthread_rwlock_t
- pthread_rwlockattr_t
To load the pretty printers into your gdb session, do the following:
python
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, '/path/to/glibc/build/nptl/pretty-printers')
end
source /path/to/glibc/source/pretty-printers/nptl-printers.py
You can check which printers are registered and enabled by issuing the
'info pretty-printer' gdb command. Printers should trigger automatically when
trying to print a variable of one of the types mentioned above.
The printers are architecture-independent, and were manually tested on both
the gdb CLI and Eclipse CDT.
In order to work, the printers need to know the values of various flags that
are scattered throughout pthread.h and pthreadP.h as enums and #defines. Since
replicating these constants in the printers file itself would create a
maintenance burden, I wrote a script called gen-py-const.awk that Makerules uses
to extract the constants. This script is pretty much the same as gen-as-const.awk,
except it doesn't cast the constant values to 'long' and is thorougly documented.
The constants need only to be enumerated in a .pysym file, which is then referenced
by a Make variable called gen-py-const-headers.
As for the install directory, I discussed this with Mike Frysinger and Siddhesh
Poyarekar, and we agreed that it can be handled in a separate patch, and it shouldn't
block merging of this one.
In addition, I've written a series of test cases for the pretty printers.
Each lock type (mutex, condvar and rwlock) has two test programs, one for itself
and other for its related 'attributes' object. Each test program in turn has a
PExpect-based Python script that drives gdb and compares its output to the
expected printer's. The tests run on the glibc host, which is assumed to have
both gdb and PExpect; if either is absent the tests will fail with code 77
(UNSUPPORTED). For cross-testing you should use cross-test-ssh.sh as test-wrapper.
I've tested the printers on both a native build and a cross build using a Beaglebone
Black, with the build system's filesystem shared with the board through NFS.
Finally, I've written a README that explains all this and more.
Hopefully this should be good to go in now. Thanks.

* scripts/gen-py-const.awk: Likewise.
* scripts/check-local-headers.sh (exclude): Add hurd/ihash.h, and
include .*-.*/ in addition to .*-.*-.*/ (i.e. i386-gnu in addition to
i386-linux-gnu).
This patch updates texinfo.tex, config.guess, config.sub and
move-if-change from their respective upstream sources.
* manual/texinfo.tex: Update to version 2016-01-04.21 with
trailing whitespace removed.
* scripts/config.guess: Update to version 2016-01-01.
* scripts/config.sub: Update to version 2016-01-01.
* scripts/move-if-change: Update from gnulib.
The new format lists the version on each line, as in:
VERSION SYMBOL TYPE [VALUE]
This makes it easier to process the files with line-oriented tools.
The abilist files were converted with this awk script:
/^[^ ]/ { version = $1 }
/^ / { print version, substr($0, 2) }
And sorted under the "C" locale with sort.
Linker in binutils 2.26 and newer generate GOT references instead
PLT references when -z now is passed to linker. We need to extend
scripts/localplt.awk to allow PLT or GOT references.
[BZ #19007]
* scripts/localplt.awk: Also allow GOT references.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/localplt.data: Mark
_Unwind_Find_FDE, calloc, memalign, realloc and __libc_memalign
with "+ REL R_386_GLOB_DAT".
* sysdeps/x86_64/localplt.data: Mark calloc, memalign, realloc
and __libc_memalign with "+ RELA R_X86_64_GLOB_DAT".
The file scripts/rpm2dynsym.sh appears to be unused anywhere in glibc.
This patch removes this script.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed shared
libraries are unchanged by the patch).
* scripts/rpm2dynsym.sh: Remove file.
The third arg can either be a string with "g" or "G", or it is a number.
The empty string elicits a warning with newer versions like so:
gawk: scripts/sysd-rules.awk:56: warning: gensub: third argument `' treated as 1
On x86, linker in binutils 2.26 and newer consolidates R_*_JUMP_SLOT with
R_*_GLOB_DAT relocation against the same symbol. This patch extends
local PLT reference check to support alternate relocations.
[BZ #18078]
* scripts/check-localplt.awk: Support alternate relocations.
* scripts/localplt.awk: Also check relocations in DT_RELA/DT_REL
sections.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/localplt.data: Mark free and
malloc entries with + REL R_386_GLOB_DAT.
* sysdeps/x86_64/localplt.data: New file.
