The CORE-MATH implementation is correctly rounded (for any rounding mode)
and shows better performance compared to the generic exp2m1f.
The code was adapted to glibc style and to use the definition of
math_config.h (to handle errno, overflow, and underflow). The
only change is to handle FLT_MAX_EXP for FE_DOWNWARD or FE_TOWARDZERO.
The benchmark inputs are based on exp2f ones.

an optimized ifunc version (built with -mfma -mavx2, not correctly

Same for i686, where the ABI provides an optimized __ieee754_exp2f
version built with '-msse2 -mfpmath=sse'. When built wth same

C23 adds various <math.h> function families originally defined in TS
18661-4. Add the exp2m1 and exp10m1 functions (exp2(x)-1 and
exp10(x)-1, like expm1).
As with other such functions, these use type-generic templates that
could be replaced with faster and more accurate type-specific
implementations in future. Test inputs are copied from those for
expm1, plus some additions close to the overflow threshold (copied
from exp2 and exp10) and also some near the underflow threshold.
exp2m1 has the unusual property of having an input (M_MAX_EXP) where
whether the function overflows (under IEEE semantics) depends on the
rounding mode. Although these could reasonably be XFAILed in the
testsuite (as we do in some cases for arguments very close to a
function's overflow threshold when an error of a few ulps in the
implementation can result in the implementation not agreeing with an
ideal one on whether overflow takes place - the testsuite isn't smart
enough to handle this automatically), since these functions aren't
required to be correctly rounding, I made the implementation check for
and handle this case specially.
The Makefile ordering expected by lint-makefiles for the new functions
is a bit peculiar, but I implemented it in this patch so that the test
passes; I don't know why log2 also needed moving in one Makefile
variable setting when it didn't in my previous patches, but the
failure showed a different place was expected for that function as
well.
The powerpc64le IFUNC setup seems not to be as self-contained as one
might hope; it shouldn't be necessary to add IFUNCs for new functions
such as these simply to get them building, but without setting up
IFUNCs for the new functions, there were undefined references to
__GI___expm1f128 (that IFUNC machinery results in no such function
being defined, but doesn't stop include/math.h from doing the
redirection resulting in the exp2m1f128 and exp10m1f128
implementations expecting to call it).
Tested for x86_64 and x86, and with build-many-glibcs.py.
C23 adds various <math.h> function families originally defined in TS
18661-4. Add the log10p1 functions (log10(1+x): like log1p, but for
base-10 logarithms).
This is directly analogous to the log2p1 implementation (except that
whereas log2p1 has a smaller underflow range than log1p, log10p1 has a
larger underflow range). The test inputs are copied from those for
log1p and log2p1, plus a few more inputs in that wider underflow
range.

C23 adds various <math.h> function families originally defined in TS
18661-4. Add the logp1 functions (aliases for log1p functions - the
name is intended to be more consistent with the new log2p1 and
log10p1, where clearly it would have been very confusing to name those
functions log21p and log101p). As aliases rather than new functions,
the content of this patch is somewhat different from those actually
adding new functions.
Tests are shared with log1p, so this patch *does* mechanically update
all affected libm-test-ulps files to expect the same errors for both
functions.
The vector versions of log1p on aarch64 and x86_64 are *not* updated
to have logp1 aliases (and thus there are no corresponding header,
tests, abilist or ulps changes for vector functions either). It would
be reasonable for such vector aliases and corresponding changes to
other files to be made separately. For now, the log1p tests instead
avoid testing logp1 in the vector case (a Makefile change is needed to
avoid problems with grep, used in generating the .c files for vector
function tests, matching more than one ALL_RM_TEST line in a file
testing multiple functions with the same inputs, when it assumes that
the .inc file only has a single such line).

C23 adds various <math.h> function families originally defined in TS
18661-4. Add the log2p1 functions (log2(1+x): like log1p, but for
base-2 logarithms).
This illustrates the intended structure of implementations of all
these function families: define them initially with a type-generic
template implementation. If someone wishes to add type-specific
implementations, it is likely such implementations can be both faster
and more accurate than the type-generic one and can then override it
for types for which they are implemented (adding benchmarks would be
desirable in such cases to demonstrate that a new implementation is
indeed faster).
The test inputs are copied from those for log1p. Note that these
changes make gen-auto-libm-tests depend on MPFR 4.2 (or later).
The bulk of the changes are fairly generic for any such new function.
(sysdeps/powerpc/nofpu/Makefile only needs changing for those
type-generic templates that use fabs.)

According to ISO C23 (7.6.4.4), fesetexcept is supposed to set
floating-point exception flags without raising a trap (unlike
feraiseexcept, which is supposed to raise a trap if feenableexcept
was called with the appropriate argument).
The flags can be set in the 387 unit or in the SSE unit. When we need
to clear a flag, we need to do so in both units, due to the way
fetestexcept is implemented.
When we need to set a flag, it is sufficient to do it in the SSE unit,
because that is guaranteed to not trap. However, on i386 CPUs that have
only a 387 unit, set the flags in the 387, as long as this cannot trap.

Since i686 provides the fortified wrappers for memcpy, mempcpy,
memmove, and memset on the same string implementation, the static
build tries to optimized it by not tying the fortified wrappers
to string routine (to avoid pulling the fortify function if
they are not required).
Checked on i686-linux-gnu building with different option:
default and --disable-multi-arch plus default, --disable-default-pie,
--enable-fortify-source={2,3}, and --enable-fortify-source={2,3}
with --disable-default-pie.

Similar to memcpy, mempcpy, and memmove there is no need for an
specific memset_chk-nonshared.S. It can be provided by
memset-ia32.S itself for static library.

The i386 string routines provide multiple internal definitions
for memcpy, memmove, and mempcpy chk routines:
$ objdump -t libc.a | grep __memcpy_chk
00000000 g F .text 0000000e __memcpy_chk
00000000 g F .text 00000013 __memcpy_chk
$ objdump -t libc.a | grep __mempcpy_chk
00000000 g F .text 0000000e __mempcpy_chk
00000000 g F .text 00000013 __mempcpy_chk
$ objdump -t libc.a | grep __memmove_chk
00000000 g F .text 0000000e __memmove_chk
00000000 g F .text 00000013 __memmove_chk
Although is not an issue for normal static builds, with fortify=3
glibc itself might use the fortify chk functions and thus static
build might fail with multiple definitions. For instance:
x86_64-glibc-linux-gnu-gcc -m32 -march=i686 -o [...]math/test-signgam-uchar-static -nostdlib -nostartfiles -static -static-pie [...]

There is no need for mem*-nonshared.S, the __mem*_chk routines

Bump autoconf requirement to 2.71 to allow regenerating configure on
more recent distributions. autoconf 2.71 has been in Fedora since F36
and is the current version in Debian stable (bookworm). It appears to
be current in Gentoo as well.
All sysdeps configure and preconfigure scripts have also been
regenerated; all changes are trivial transformations that do not affect
functionality.

If libc_hidden_builtin_{def,proto} isn't properly set for *_chk routines,
there are unwanted PLT entries in libc.so.

On i386 and x86_64, for libc.a specifically, __mempcpy_chk calls
mempcpy which leads POSIX routines to call non-POSIX mempcpy indirectly.
This leads the linknamespace test to fail when glibc is built with
__FORTIFY_SOURCE=3.
Since calling mempcpy doesn't bring any benefit for libc.a, directly
call __mempcpy instead.

The error handling is moved to sysdeps/ieee754 version with no SVID
support. The compatibility symbol versions still use the wrapper
with SVID error handling around the new code. There is no new symbol
version nor compatibility code on !LIBM_SVID_COMPAT targets
(e.g. riscv).
The ia64 is unchanged, since it still uses the arch specific
__libm_error_region on its implementation. For both i686 and m68k,
which provive arch specific implementation, wrappers are added so
no new symbol are added (which would require to change the
implementations).
It shows an small improvement, the results for fmod:
