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
An elided mutex don't fail destroy. Elision was disabled for the
test nptl/tst-mutex8 in nptl/Makefile. Thus we can run tests which
destroy a locked mutex.
As elision is only disabled for tst-mutex8, the variants
tst-mutex8-static, tst-mutexpi8 and tst-mutexpi8-static are still
failing if lock elision is enabled.
This patch adds a runtime check, if the checked type of mutex will
be elided. This check is using TUNABLE_GET_FULL to determine if
elision is enabled via the tunables framework.
The pthread_mutex_destroy tests are only run if we dont't assume an
elided mutex.
This way, we can run the whole glibc testsuite with or without enabled
lock elision.
ChangeLog:
* nptl/Makefile (tst-mutex8-ENV): Delete.
* nptl/tst-mutex8.c (check_type):
Add runtime check if mutex will be elided.
This patch adds several new tunables to control the behavior of
elision on supported platforms[1]. Since elision now depends
on tunables, we should always *compile* with elision enabled,
and leave the code disabled, but available for runtime
selection. This gives us *much* better compile-time testing of
the existing code to avoid bit-rot[2].
Tested on ppc, ppc64, ppc64le, s390x and x86_64.

tst-mutex5 and 8 test some behaviour not required by POSIX,
that elision changes. This changes these tests to not check
this when elision is enabled at configure time.
