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:

I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 6694 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c
and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this
diagnostic from Savannah:
remote: *** pre-commit check failed ...
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
When adding/updating localplt.data for various architectures to get
the compilation tests passing everywhere, I generally made it reflect
the existing state of what local PLT entries were actually seen,
rather than an ideal state with as few as possible such entries,
mainly for functions that are intended to be interposable.
This patch eliminates some local PLT entries for hppa by using
__sigprocmask instead of sigprocmask in getcontext and setcontext.
The specific case of sigprocmask called by setcontext is the third of
four items in bug 18124 (the other three have already been fixed for
2.26 or earlier releases). Note that hppa-specific localplt.data
entries for __sigsetjmp, _IO_funlockfile and __errno_location remain,
but the causes / fixes are less immediately obvious from source
inspection.
Tested (compilation tests only) with build-many-glibcs.py for
hppa-linux-gnu.
[BZ #18124]
* sysdeps/hppa/bsd-setjmp.S: Include <sysdep.h>.
(setjmp): Use HIDDEN_JUMPTARGET with __sigsetjmp.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/hppa/getcontext.S (__getcontext): Call
__sigprocmask instead of sigprocmask.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/hppa/setcontext.S (__setcontext):
Likewise.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/hppa/localplt.data: Remove entries for
__sigsetjmp and sigprocmask.
__setcontext on hppa.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/hppa/getcontext.S (__getcontext): Save return
pointer in frame.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/hppa/setcontext.S (__setcontext): Likewise.
Correct offset used to restore PIC register.
