The CORE-MATH implementation is correctly rounded (for any rounding mode)
and shows better performance compared to the generic exp2m1f.
The code was adapted to glibc style and to use the definition of
math_config.h (to handle errno, overflow, and underflow). The
only change is to handle FLT_MAX_EXP for FE_DOWNWARD or FE_TOWARDZERO.
The benchmark inputs are based on exp2f ones.

an optimized ifunc version (built with -mfma -mavx2, not correctly
rounded). This explains the performance difference for x86_64.
Same for i686, where the ABI provides an optimized __ieee754_exp2f
version built with '-msse2 -mfpmath=sse'. When built wth same
flags, the new algorithm shows a better performance:

C23 adds various <math.h> function families originally defined in TS
18661-4. Add the logp1 functions (aliases for log1p functions - the
name is intended to be more consistent with the new log2p1 and
log10p1, where clearly it would have been very confusing to name those
functions log21p and log101p). As aliases rather than new functions,
the content of this patch is somewhat different from those actually
adding new functions.
Tests are shared with log1p, so this patch *does* mechanically update
all affected libm-test-ulps files to expect the same errors for both
functions.
The vector versions of log1p on aarch64 and x86_64 are *not* updated
to have logp1 aliases (and thus there are no corresponding header,
tests, abilist or ulps changes for vector functions either). It would
be reasonable for such vector aliases and corresponding changes to
other files to be made separately. For now, the log1p tests instead
avoid testing logp1 in the vector case (a Makefile change is needed to
avoid problems with grep, used in generating the .c files for vector
function tests, matching more than one ALL_RM_TEST line in a file
testing multiple functions with the same inputs, when it assumes that
the .inc file only has a single such line).
Tested for x86_64 and x86, and with build-many-glibcs.py.

In the future, this will result in a compilation failure if the
macros are unexpectedly undefined (due to header inclusion ordering
or header inclusion missing altogether).
Assembler sources are more difficult to convert. In many cases,
they are hand-optimized for the mangling and no-mangling variants,
which is why they are not converted.
sysdeps/s390/s390-32/__longjmp.c and sysdeps/s390/s390-64/__longjmp.c
are special: These are C sources, but most of the implementation is
in assembler, so the PTR_DEMANGLE macro has to be undefined in some
cases, to match the assembler style.

This allows us to define a generic no-op version of PTR_MANGLE and

In i386 and x86_64, we can avoid a <tls.h> dependency in the C

anymore when computing the <tcb-offsets.h> constants.

GCC 13 adds support for _FloatN and _FloatNx types in C++, so breaking
the installed glibc headers that assume such support is not present.
GCC mostly works around this with fixincludes, but that doesn't help
for building glibc and its tests (glibc doesn't itself contain C++
code, but there's C++ code built for tests). Update glibc's
bits/floatn-common.h and bits/floatn.h headers to handle the GCC 13
support directly.
In general the changes match those made by fixincludes, though I think
the ones in sysdeps/powerpc/bits/floatn.h, where the header tests
__LDBL_MANT_DIG__ == 113 or uses #elif, wouldn't match the existing
fixincludes patterns.
Some places involving special C++ handling in relation to _FloatN
support are not changed. There's no need to change the
__HAVE_FLOATN_NOT_TYPEDEF definition (also in a form that wouldn't be
matched by the fixincludes fixes) because it's only used in relation
to macro definitions using features not supported for C++
(__builtin_types_compatible_p and _Generic). And there's no need to
change the inline function overloads for issignaling, iszero and
iscanonical in C++ because cases where types have the same format but
are no longer compatible types are handled automatically by the C++
overload resolution rules.
This patch also does not change the overload handling for iseqsig, and
there I think changes *are* needed, beyond those in this patch or made
by fixincludes. The way that overload is defined, via a template
parameter to a structure type, requires overloads whenever the types
are incompatible, even if they have the same format. So I think we
need to add overloads with GCC 13 for every supported _FloatN and
_FloatNx type, rather than just having one for _Float128 when it has a
different ABI to long double as at present (but for older GCC, such
overloads must not be defined for types that end up defined as
typedefs for another type).

Avoid fiddling with autoconf internals and use AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED to
define macros in the configuration headers rather than handcoding an
equivalent shell sequence with the use of the `as_echo' undocumented
variable.
Similarly use AC_MSG_ERROR for error handling rather than the internal
undocumented `as_fn_error' variable. Switch to using 1 as the exit code
as it makes no sense to refer $? in the contexts involved, it's not a
command failure handled there.
PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN indicates whether accesses to internal linkage
variables and hidden visibility variables in a shared object (ld.so)
need dynamic relocations (usually R_*_RELATIVE). PI (position
independent) in the macro name is a misnomer: a code sequence using GOT
is typically position-independent as well, but using dynamic relocations
does not meet the requirement.
Not defining PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN is legacy and we expect that all new
ports will define PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN. Current ports defining
PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN are more than the opposite. Change the configure
default.
