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.

No bug. This commit adds __memcmpeq benchmarks. The benchmarks just
use the existing ones in memcmp. This will be useful for testing
implementations of __memcmpeq that do not just alias memcmp.
No bug. Remove reallocation of bufs between implementation tests. Move
initialization outside of foreach implementation test loop. Increase
iteration count.
Generally before this commit was seeing a great deal of variability
between runs. The goal of this commit is to make the results more
reliable.
Benchtests build and bench-memcmp succeeding.

No bug. This commit adds some additional performance test cases to
bench-memcmp.c and test-memcmp.c. The new benchtests include some
medium range sizes, as well as small sizes near page cross. The new
correctness tests correspond with the new benchtests though add some
additional cases for checking the page cross logic.

Drop realloc_bufs in favour of making alloc_bufs transparently
reallocate the buffers if it had allocated before. Also consolidate
computation of buffer lengths so that they don't get repeated on every
reallocation.
* benchtests/bench-string.h (buf1_size, buf2_size): New
variables.
(init_sizes): New function.
(test_init): Use it.
(alloc_buf, exit_error): New functions.
(alloc_bufs): Use ALLOC_BUF.
(realloc_bufs): Remove.
* benchtests/bench-memcmp.c (do_test): Adjust.
* benchtests/bench-memset-large.c (do_test): Likewise.
* benchtests/bench-memset-walk.c (do_test): Likewise.
* benchtests/bench-memset.c (do_test): Likewise.
* benchtests/bench-strncmp.c (do_test): Likewise.
Keeping the buffers the same across test runs gives later invocations
the advantage since they access cached data. Reallocate so that all
test runs are on equal grounds.
* benchtests/bench-memcmp.c (do_test): Call realloc_buf for
every test run.
Switch the string benchmarks to using bench-timing.h instead
of hp-timing.h directly. This allows the string benchmarks to
be run usefully on architectures such as ARM that do not have
support for hp-timing.h.
In order to do this the tests have been changed from timing each
individual call and picking the lowest execution time recorded to
timing a number of calls and taking the mean execution time.
ChangeLog:
2013-09-04 Will Newton <will.newton@linaro.org>
* benchtests/bench-timing.h (TIMING_PRINT_MEAN): New macro.
* benchtests/bench-string.h: Include bench-timing.h instead
of including hp-timing.h directly. (INNER_LOOP_ITERS): New
define. (HP_TIMING_BEST): Delete macro. (test_init): Remove
call to HP_TIMING_DIFF_INIT.
* benchtests/bench-memccpy.c: Use bench-timing.h macros
instead of hp-timing.h macros.
