674ea88294 x86: Move CET control to _dl_x86_feature_control [BZ #25887]
1. Include <dl-procruntime.c> to get architecture specific initializer in
rtld_global.
2. Change _dl_x86_feature_1[2] to _dl_x86_feature_1.
3. Add _dl_x86_feature_control after _dl_x86_feature_1, which is a
struct of 2 bitfields for IBT and SHSTK control

This fixes [BZ #25887].

cbfc16122e sunrpc/tst-udp-*: Fix timeout value
Following on 00c3da43a ('sunrpc/tst-udp-timeout: Fix timeout value').

While e.g. 2.5 timeout can be represented exactly with doubles, time stamps
may not be represented that exactly, and thus with coarse-grain clocks (e.g.
10ms) we may end up with 2.499-ish values due to rounding errors.

* sunrpc/tst-udp-timeout.c (test_udp_server): Add more timeout slack.
* sunrpc/tst-udp-nonblocking.c (do_test): Likewise.

This patch updates files coming from tzcode to tzcode 2020a.

One trivial change to other glibc was needed.

59b64f9cbb aarch64: fix strcpy and strnlen for big-endian [BZ #25824]
This patch fixes the optimized implementation of strcpy and strnlen
on a big-endian arm64 machine.

The optimized method uses neon, which can process 128bit with one
instruction. On a big-endian machine, the bit order should be reversed
for the whole 128-bits double word. But with instuction
	rev64	datav.16b, datav.16b
it reverses 64bits in the two halves rather than reversing 128bits.
There is no such instruction as rev128 to reverse the 128bits, but we
can fix this by loading the data registers accordingly.

Fixes 0237b61526e7("aarch64: Optimized implementation of strcpy") and
2911cb68ed3d("aarch64: Optimized implementation of strnlen").

4cab20fa49 nptl: wait for pending setxid request also in detached thread (bug 25942)
There is a race between __nptl_setxid and exiting detached thread, which
causes a deadlock on stack_cache_lock.  The deadlock happens in this
state:

T1: setgroups -> __nptl_setxid (holding stack_cache_lock, waiting on cmdp->cntr == 0)
T2 (detached, exiting): start_thread -> __deallocate_stack (waiting on stack_cache_lock)
more threads waiting on stack_cache_lock in pthread_create

For non-detached threads, start_thread waits for its own setxid handler to
finish before exiting.  Do this for detached threads as well.

dbf8178fdc y2038: Introduce struct __timex64 - new internal glibc type
The introduced glibc's 'internal' struct __timex64 is a copy of Linux kernel's
struct __kernel_timex (v5.6) introduced for properly handling data for
clock_adjtime64 syscall.
As the struct's __kernel_timex size is the same as for archs with
__WORDSIZE == 64, proper padding and data types conversion (i.e. long to long
long) had to be added for architectures with __WORDSIZE == 32 &&
__TIMESIZE != 64.

Moreover, it stores time in struct __timeval64 rather than struct
timeval, which makes it Y2038-proof.

It is also safe to replace struct timespec with struct __timespec64 in

- The __deadline_to_ms () returns the number of miliseconds to deadline to
  be used with __poll (and hence it is a relative value).
- To calculate the deadline from timeval (which will be converted latter)

4a4db1de2f powerpc64le/power9: guard power9 strcmp against rtld usage [BZ# 25905]
strcmp is used while resolving PLT references.  Vector registers
should not be used during this.  The P9 strcmp makes heavy use of
vector registers, so it should be avoided in rtld.

This prevents quiet vector register corruption when glibc is configured
with --disable-multi-arch and --with-cpu=power9.  This can be seen with
test-float64x-compat_totalordermag during the first call into
totalordermagf64x@GLIBC_2.27.

Add a guard to fallback to the power8 implementation when building
power9 strcmp for libraries other than libc.

All localedef tests which run with default paths need to have the
$(complocaledir) created in testroot.pristine. The localedef binary
will not by itself create the default path, but it will write into
the path. By adding this we can simplify the localedef tests.

The variable $complocaledir is the value of the configured
$(complocaledir) which is the location of the compiled locales that
will be searched by the runtime by default.

The command mkdirp will be available in script setup and will
be equivalent to running `mkdir -p`.

3a0acbdcc5 powerpc64le: bump binutils version requirement to >= 2.26
This is a small step up from 2.25 which brings in support for
rewriting the .gnu.attributes section of libc/libm.so.

50545f5aa0 powerpc64le: raise GCC requirement to 7.4 for long double transition
Add compiler feature tests to ensure we can build ieee128 long double.
These test for -mabi=ieeelongdouble, -mno-gnu-attribute, and -Wno-psabi.

Likewise, verify some compiler bugs have been addressed.  These aren't
helpful for building glibc, but may cause test failures when testing
the new long double.  See notes below from Raji.

On powerpc64le, some older compiler versions give error for the function
signbit() for 128-bit floating point types.  This is fixed by PR83862
in gcc 8.0 and backported to gcc6 and gcc7.  This patch adds a test
to check compiler version to avoid compiler errors during make check.

Likewise, test for -mno-gnu-attribute support which was

On powerpc64le, a few files are built on IEEE long double mode
(-mabi=ieeelongdouble), whereas most are built on IBM long double mode
(-mabi=ibmlongdouble, the default for -mlong-double-128).  Since binutils
2.31, linking object files with different long double modes causes
errors similar to:

  ld: libc_pic.a(s_isinfl.os) uses IBM long double,
      libc_pic.a(ieee128-qefgcvt.os) uses IEEE long double.
  collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
  make[2]: *** [../Makerules:649: libc_pic.os] Error 1

The warnings are fair and correct, but in order for glibc to have
support for both long double modes on powerpc64le, they have to be
ignored.  This can be accomplished with the use of -mno-gnu-attribute
option when building the few files that require IEEE long double mode.

However, -mno-gnu-attribute is not available in GCC 6, the minimum
version required to build glibc, so this patch adds a test for this
feature in powerpc64le builds, and fails early if it's not available.

e2239af353 Rename __LONG_DOUBLE_USES_FLOAT128 to __LDOUBLE_REDIRECTS_TO_FLOAT128_ABI
Improve the commentary to aid future developers who will stumble
upon this novel, yet not always perfect, mechanism to support
alternative formats for long double.

Likewise, rename __LONG_DOUBLE_USES_FLOAT128 to
__LDOUBLE_REDIRECTS_TO_FLOAT128_ABI now that development work
has settled down.  The command used was

git grep -l __LONG_DOUBLE_USES_FLOAT128 ':!./ChangeLog*' | \
  xargs sed -i 's/__LONG_DOUBLE_USES_FLOAT128/__LDOUBLE_REDIRECTS_TO_FLOAT128_ABI/g'
