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 7061 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,
support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and
sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't
know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not.

The clone.S patch fixes 2 elfutils testsuite unwind failures, where the
backtrace gets stuck repeating __thread_start until we hit the backtrace
limit. This was confirmed by building and installing a patched glibc and
then building elfutils and running its testsuite.
Unfortunately, the testcase isn't working as expected and I don't know why.
The testcase passes even when my clone.S patch is not installed. The testcase
looks logically similarly to the elfutils testcases that are failing. Maybe
there is a subtle difference in how the glibc unwinding works versus the
elfutils unwinding? I don't have good gdb pthread support yet, so I haven't
found a way to debug this. Anyways, I don't know if the testcase is useful or
not. If the testcase isn't useful then maybe the clone.S patch is OK without
a testcase?

[BZ #24040]
* elf/Makefile (CFLAGS-tst-unwind-main.c): Add -DUSE_PTHREADS=0.
* elf/tst-unwind-main.c: If USE_PTHEADS, include pthread.h and error.h
(func): New.
(main): If USE_PTHREADS, call pthread_create to run func. Otherwise
call func directly.
* nptl/Makefile (tests): Add tst-unwind-thread.
(CFLAGS-tst-unwind-thread.c): Define.
* nptl/tst-unwind-thread.c: New file.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/riscv/clone.S (__thread_start): Mark ra
as undefined.
Mark the ra register as undefined in _start, so that unwinding through
main works correctly. Also, don't use a tail call so that ra points after
the call to __libc_start_main, not after the previous call.
