e98c925fa4 tst-tlsopt-powerpc as a shared lib
This makes the __tls_get_addr_opt test run as a shared library, and so
actually test that DTPMOD64/DTPREL64 pairs are processed by ld.so to
support the __tls_get_adfr_opt call stub fast return.  After a
2017-01-24 patch (binutils f0158f4416) ld.bfd no longer emitted
unnecessary dynamic relocations against local thread variables,
instead setting up the __tls_index GOT entries for the call stub fast
return.  This meant tst-tlsopt-powerpc passed but did not check ld.so
relocation support.  After a 2017-07-16 patch (binutils 676ee2b5fa)
ld.bfd no longer set up the __tls_index GOT entries for the call stub
fast return, and tst-tlsopt-powerpc failed.

Compiling mod-tlsopt-powerpc.c with -DSHARED exposed a bug in
powerpc64/tls-macros.h, which defines a __TLS_GET_ADDR macro that
clashes with one defined in dl-tls.h.  The tls-macros.h version is
only used in that file, so delete it and expand.

	* sysdeps/powerpc/mod-tlsopt-powerpc.c: Extract from
	tst-tlsopt-powerpc.c with function name change and no test harness.
	* sysdeps/powerpc/tst-tlsopt-powerpc.c: Remove body of test.
	Call tls_get_addr_opt_test.
	* sysdeps/powerpc/Makefile (LDFLAGS-tst-tlsopt-powerpc): Don't define.
	(modules-names): Add mod-tlsopt-powerpc.
	(mod-tlsopt-powerpc.so-no-z-defs): Define.
	(tst-tlsopt-powerpc): Depend on .so.
	* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/tls-macros.h (__TLS_GET_ADDR): Don't
	define.  Expand use in TLS_GD and TLS_LD.

ee6df1e6ab powerpc: Convert tests to the new support test-driver
Change the powerpc tests to use <support/test-driver.c>.
Also replace some of pthread calls to its xpthread equivalent.

Tested on ppc64le.

	* sysdeps/powerpc/test-get_hwcap.c: Use <support/test-driver.c>
	instead of test-skeleton.c.
	(do_test): Replaced pthread_create and pthread_join with
	xpthread_create and xpthread_join.  Use TEST_VERIFY_EXIT macro.
	Removed unneeded status variable.
	* sysdeps/powerpc/test-gettimebase.c: Use <support/test-driver.c>
	instead of test-skeleton.c.
	* sysdeps/powerpc/tst-tlsopt-powerpc.c: Likewise.

afcd9480fe powerpc __tls_get_addr call optimization
This patch is glibc support for a PowerPC TLS optimization, inspired
by Alexandre Oliva's TLS optimization for other processors,
http://www.lsd.ic.unicamp.br/~oliva/writeups/TLS/RFC-TLSDESC-x86.txt

In essence, this optimization uses a zero module id in the tls_index
GOT entry to indicate that a TLS variable is allocated space in the
static TLS area.  A special plt call linker stub for __tls_get_addr
checks for such a tls_index and if found, returns the offset
immediately.  The linker communicates the fact that the special
__tls_get_addr stub is used by setting a bit in the dynamic tag
DT_PPC64_OPT/DT_PPC_OPT.  glibc communicates to the linker that this
optimization is available by the presence of __tls_get_addr_opt.

tst-tlsmod2.so is built with -Wl,--no-tls-get-addr-optimize for
tst-tls-dlinfo, which otherwise would fail since it tests that no
static tls is allocated.  The ld option --no-tls-get-addr-optimize has
been available since binutils-2.20 so doesn't need a configure test.

	* NEWS: Advertise TLS optimization.
	* elf/elf.h (R_PPC_TLSGD, R_PPC_TLSLD, DT_PPC_OPT, PPC_OPT_TLS): Define.
	(DT_PPC_NUM): Increment.
	* elf/dynamic-link.h (HAVE_STATIC_TLS): Define.
	(CHECK_STATIC_TLS): Use here.
	* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/dl-machine.h (elf_machine_rela): Optimize
	TLS descriptors.
	* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/dl-machine.h (elf_machine_rela): Likewise.
	* sysdeps/powerpc/dl-tls.c: New file.
	* sysdeps/powerpc/Versions: Add __tls_get_addr_opt.
	* sysdeps/powerpc/tst-tlsopt-powerpc.c: New tls test.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/Makefile: Add new test.
	Build tst-tlsmod2.so with --no-tls-get-addr-optimize.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc32/ld.abilist: Update.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc64/ld.abilist: Likewise.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc64/ld-le.abilist: Likewise.
