hurd initialization stages use RUN_HOOK to run various initialization
functions. That is however using absolute addresses which need to be
relocated, which is done later by csu. We can however easily make the
linker compute relative addresses which thus don't need a relocation.
The new SET_RELHOOK and RUN_RELHOOK macros implement this.

Optimizations are twofold.
1) Replace page cross and 0/1 checks with masked load instructions in
L(less_vec). In applications this reduces branch-misses in the
hot [0, 32] case.
2) Change controlflow so that L(less_vec) case gets the fall through.
Change 2) helps copies in the [0, 32] size range but comes at the cost
of copies in the [33, 64] size range. From profiles of GCC and
Python3, 94%+ and 99%+ of calls are in the [0, 32] range so this
appears to the the right tradeoff.

TLS_INIT_TCB_ALIGN is not actually used. TLS_TCB_ALIGN was likely
introduced to support a configuration where the thread pointer
has not the same alignment as THREAD_SELF. Only ia64 seems to use
that, but for the stack/pointer guard, not for storing tcbhead_t.
Some ports use TLS_TCB_OFFSET and TLS_PRE_TCB_SIZE to shift
the thread pointer, potentially landing in a different residue class
modulo the alignment, but the changes should not impact that.
In general, given that TLS variables have their own alignment
requirements, having different alignment for the (unshifted) thread
pointer and struct pthread would potentially result in dynamic
offsets, leading to more complexity.
hppa had different values before: __alignof__ (tcbhead_t), which
seems to be 4, and __alignof__ (struct pthread), which was 8
(old default) and is now 32. However, it defines THREAD_SELF as:
/* Return the thread descriptor for the current thread. */
# define THREAD_SELF \
({ struct pthread *__self; \
__self = __get_cr27(); \
__self - 1; \
})
So the thread pointer points after struct pthread (hence __self - 1),
and they have to have the same alignment on hppa as well.
Similarly, on ia64, the definitions were different. We have:
# define TLS_PRE_TCB_SIZE \
(sizeof (struct pthread) \
+ (PTHREAD_STRUCT_END_PADDING < 2 * sizeof (uintptr_t) \
? ((2 * sizeof (uintptr_t) + __alignof__ (struct pthread) - 1) \
& ~(__alignof__ (struct pthread) - 1)) \
: 0))
# define THREAD_SELF \
((struct pthread *) ((char *) __thread_self - TLS_PRE_TCB_SIZE))
And TLS_PRE_TCB_SIZE is a multiple of the struct pthread alignment
(confirmed by the new _Static_assert in sysdeps/ia64/libc-tls.c).
On m68k, we have a larger gap between tcbhead_t and struct pthread.
But as far as I can tell, the port is fine with that. The definition
of TCB_OFFSET is sufficient to handle the shifted TCB scenario.
This fixes commit 23c77f6018
("nptl: Increase default TCB alignment to 32").

This commit adds support for __memcmpeq() as a new ABI for all
targets. In this commit __memcmpeq() is implemented only as an alias
to the corresponding targets memcmp() implementation. __memcmpeq() is
added as a new symbol starting with GLIBC_2.35 and defined in string.h
with comments explaining its behavior. Basic tests that it is callable
and works where added in string/tester.c
As discussed in the proposal "Add new ABI '__memcmpeq()' to libc"
__memcmpeq() is essentially a reserved namespace for bcmp(). The means
is shares the same specifications as memcmp() except the return value
for non-equal byte sequences is any non-zero value. This is less
strict than memcmp()'s return value specification and can be better
optimized when a boolean return is all that is needed.
__memcmpeq() is meant to only be called by compilers if they can prove
that the return value of a memcmp() call is only used for its boolean
value.
All tests in string/tester.c passed. As well build succeeds on
x86_64-linux-gnu target.
This commit replaces two usages of SSE2 'movups' with AVX 'vmovdqu'.
it could potentially be dangerous to use SSE2 if this function is ever
called without using 'vzeroupper' beforehand. While compilers appear
to use 'vzeroupper' before function calls if AVX2 has been used, using
SSE2 here is more brittle. Since it is not absolutely necessary it
should be avoided.
It costs 2-extra bytes but the extra bytes should only eat into
alignment padding.

The 4af6982e4c fix does not fully handle RTLD_BOOTSTRAP usage on
rtld.c due two issues:
1. RTLD_BOOTSTRAP is also used on dl-machine.h on various
architectures and it changes the semantics of various machine
relocation functions.
2. The elf_get_dynamic_info() change was done sideways, previously
to 490e6c62aa get-dynamic-info.h was included by the first
dynamic-link.h include *without* RTLD_BOOTSTRAP being defined.
It means that the code within elf_get_dynamic_info() that uses
RTLD_BOOTSTRAP is in fact unused.
To fix 1. this patch now includes dynamic-link.h only once with
RTLD_BOOTSTRAP defined. The ELF_DYNAMIC_RELOCATE call will now have
the relocation fnctions with the expected semantics for the loader.
And to fix 2. part of 4af6982e4c is reverted (the check argument
elf_get_dynamic_info() is not required) and the RTLD_BOOTSTRAP
pieces are removed.
To reorganize the includes the static TLS definition is moved to
its own header to avoid a circular dependency (it is defined on
dynamic-link.h and dl-machine.h requires it at same time other
dynamic-link.h definition requires dl-machine.h defitions).
Also ELF_MACHINE_NO_REL, ELF_MACHINE_NO_RELA, and ELF_MACHINE_PLT_REL
are moved to its own header. Only ancient ABIs need special values
(arm, i386, and mips), so a generic one is used as default.
The powerpc Elf64_FuncDesc is also moved to its own header, since
csu code required its definition (which would require either include

The frontend optimizations are to:

the same cache line or adjacent cache lines.
2. Avoid cases when basic blocks unnecissarily cross cache lines.
3. Try and 32 byte align any basic blocks possible without sacrificing
code size. Smaller / Less hot basic blocks are used for this.
Overall code size shrunk by 168 bytes. This should make up for any
extra costs due to aligning to 64 bytes.
In general performance before deviated a great deal dependending on
whether entry alignment % 64 was 0, 16, 32, or 48. These changes
essentially make it so that the current implementation is at least
equal to the best alignment of the original for any arguments.
The only additional optimization is in the page cross case. Branch on
equals case was removed from the size == [4, 7] case. As well the [4,
7] and [2, 3] case where swapped as [4, 7] is likely a more hot

Before to 490e6c62aa ('elf: Avoid nested functions in the loader
[BZ #27220]'), elf_get_dynamic_info() was defined twice on rtld.c: on
the first dynamic-link.h include and later within _dl_start(). The
former definition did not define DONT_USE_BOOTSTRAP_MAP and it is used
on setup_vdso() (since it is a global definition), while the former does
define DONT_USE_BOOTSTRAP_MAP and it is used on loader self-relocation.
With the commit change, the function is now included and defined once
instead of defined as a nested function. So rtld.c defines without
defining RTLD_BOOTSTRAP and it brokes at least powerpc32.
This patch fixes by moving the get-dynamic-info.h include out of
dynamic-link.h, which then the caller can corirectly set the expected
semantic by defining STATIC_PIE_BOOTSTRAP, RTLD_BOOTSTRAP, and/or
RESOLVE_MAP.
It also required to enable some asserts only for the loader bootstrap
to avoid issues when called from setup_vdso().
As a side note, this is another issues with nested functions: it is
not clear from pre-processed output (-E -dD) how the function will
be build and its semantic (since nested function will be local and
extra C defines may change it).

This patch adds the narrowing fused multiply-add functions from TS

__f32fmaieee128 and __f64fmaieee128 aliases in the powerpc64le case
(for calls to ffmal and dfmal when long double is IEEE binary128).
Corresponding tgmath.h macro support is also added.
The changes are mostly similar to those for the other narrowing
functions previously added, especially that for sqrt, so the
description of those generally applies to this patch as well. As with
sqrt, I reused the same test inputs in auto-libm-test-in as for
non-narrowing fma rather than adding extra or separate inputs for
narrowing fma. The tests in libm-test-narrow-fma.inc also follow
those for non-narrowing fma.
The non-narrowing fma has a known bug (bug 6801) that it does not set
errno on errors (overflow, underflow, Inf * 0, Inf - Inf). Rather
than fixing this or having narrowing fma check for errors when
non-narrowing does not (complicating the cases when narrowing fma can
otherwise be an alias for a non-narrowing function), this patch does
not attempt to check for errors from narrowing fma and set errno; the
CHECK_NARROW_FMA macro is still present, but as a placeholder that
does nothing, and this missing errno setting is considered to be
covered by the existing bug rather than needing a separate open bug.
missing-errno annotations are duly added to many of the
auto-libm-test-in test inputs for fma.
This completes adding all the new functions from TS 18661-1 to glibc,
so will be followed by corresponding stdc-predef.h changes to define
__STDC_IEC_60559_BFP__ and __STDC_IEC_60559_COMPLEX__, as the support
for TS 18661-1 will be at a similar level to that for C standard
floating-point facilities up to C11 (pragmas not implemented, but
library functions done). (There are still further changes to be done
to implement changes to the types of fromfp functions from N2548.)
Tested as followed: natively with the full glibc testsuite for x86_64
(GCC 11, 7, 6) and x86 (GCC 11); with build-many-glibcs.py with GCC
11, 7 and 6; cross testing of math/ tests for powerpc64le, powerpc32
hard float, mips64 (all three ABIs, both hard and soft float). The
different GCC versions are to cover the different cases in tgmath.h
and tgmath.h tests properly (GCC 6 has _Float* only as typedefs in
glibc headers, GCC 7 has proper _Float* support, GCC 8 adds

include/math.h has a mechanism to redirect internal calls to various
libm functions, that can often be inlined by the compiler, to call
non-exported __* names for those functions in the case when the calls
aren't inlined, with the redirection being disabled when
NO_MATH_REDIRECT. Add fma to the functions to which this mechanism is
applied.
At present, libm-internal fma calls (generally to __builtin_fma*
functions) are only done when it's known the call will be inlined,
with alternative code not relying on an fma operation being used in
the caller otherwise. This patch is in preparation for adding the TS
18661 / C2X narrowing fma functions to glibc; it will be natural for
the narrowing function implementations to call the underlying fma
functions unconditionally, with this either being inlined or resulting
in an __fma* call. (Using two levels of round-to-odd computation like
that, in the case where there isn't an fma hardware instruction, isn't
optimal but is certainly a lot simpler for the initial implementation
than writing different narrowing fma implementations for all the
various pairs of formats.)
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py that installed stripped shared
libraries are unchanged by the patch (using
<https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2021-September/130991.html>
to fix installed library stripping in build-many-glibcs.py). Also
tested for x86_64.
We stopped adding "Contributed by" or similar lines in sources in 2012
in favour of git logs and keeping the Contributors section of the
glibc manual up to date. Removing these lines makes the license
header a bit more consistent across files and also removes the
possibility of error in attribution when license blocks or files are
copied across since the contributed-by lines don't actually reflect
reality in those cases.
Move all "Contributed by" and similar lines (Written by, Test by,
etc.) into a new file CONTRIBUTED-BY to retain record of these
contributions. These contributors are also mentioned in
manual/contrib.texi, so we just maintain this additional record as a
courtesy to the earlier developers.
The following scripts were used to filter a list of files to edit in
place and to clean up the CONTRIBUTED-BY file respectively. These
were not added to the glibc sources because they're not expected to be
of any use in future given that this is a one time task:

that we have migrated to __thread and tls_model attributes, these macros
are unused and the tls-macros.h files can retire.

x86-64: Avoid rep movsb with short distance [BZ #27130]
introduced some regressions on Intel processors without Fast Short REP
MOV (FSRM). Add Avoid_Short_Distance_REP_MOVSB to avoid rep movsb with
short distance only on Intel processors with FSRM. bench-memmove-large
on Skylake server shows that cycles of __memmove_evex_unaligned_erms
improves for the following data size:
