There is a configure test for "whether we need to use -P to assemble
.S files".
I think this test is long obsolete. I don't have a specific reference
to a binutils change or version that obsoleted this test, but: (a) we
only support GNU binutils; (b) it looks like every architecture
supported by glibc has '#' as a line comment character in its gas
port; (c) in any case, if the (compiler, assembler) combination in use
cannot compile a .S file without special options, that would clearly
be a substantially broken combination, which I don't think we need to
allow for at all.
The test in question was added by:
Thu Jan 27 16:46:03 1994 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* configure.in (asm-CPPFLAGS): Add new check to see if assembling
a .S file loses without -P. If so, set asm-CPPFLAGS=-P in config.make.
This patch removes the test and the reference to this issue in the
comment on the default empty definition of asm-CPPFLAGS. (Various
other settings of asm-CPPFLAGS remain in sysdeps Makefile fragments.)
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed shared
libraries are unchanged by the patch).
* configure.ac (libc_cv_need_minus_P): Remove configure test.
* configure: Regenerated.
* Makeconfig (asm-CPPFLAGS): Remove reference to -P in comment.
There is a configure test for the presence of glibc 2.0 headers (that
were renamed / no longer installed in glibc 2.1) and associated
support for removing them on "make install".
Normal practice for subsequent removal / renaming of installed files
has been not to do anything special about removing them; if you want
installed files from an old installation removed reliably, you need to
use a packaging system that tracks what files were installed by a
previous glibc package (via installing in an intermediate directory
with install_root). I think it's been long enough since 2.0 that it's
not particularly useful to have that special logic for those old
headers either; this patch removes it.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed shared
libraries are unchanged by the patch).
* configure.ac (old_glibc_headers): Remove configure test.
* configure: Regenerated.
* config.make.in (old-glibc-headers): Remove variable.
* Makefile [!$(install_root) && $(old-glibc-headers) = yes]
(install): Remove dependency on remove-old-headers.
(headers2_0): Remove variable.
(remove-old-headers): Remove rule.
There is a configure test for assembler support for the .text
directive.
I suppose this test must have been aimed at some non-ELF platform or
non-GNU assembler. Certainly the GNU assembler has had ELF-specific
architecture-independent handling for .text since version 2.2, and
generic non-ELF-specific support predates that.
This patch removes this test as obsolete.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed shared
libraries are unchanged by the patch).
* configure.ac (libc_cv_dot_text): Remove configure test.
(libc_cv_asm_set_directive): Use .text instead of
${libc_cv_dot_text} in configure test.
* configure: Regenerated.
libm-test.inc has special-case code treating errors of up to 0.5 ulp
as allowed (for functions that aren't exactly determined) even if no
such errors appeared in libm-test-ulps. This only applies to avoid
errors for individual function calls, not for the overall check of
ulps at the end of testing a function, resulting in confusing output
of the form:
testing double (without inline functions)
Maximal error of `log_upward'
is : 1 ulp
accepted: 0 ulp
with no report of what testcase produced that error. This patch
removes the special case, so that instead you get:
testing double (without inline functions)
Failure: Test: log_upward (0x1.0000000000001p+0)
Result:
is: 2.2204460492503129e-16 0x1.fffffffffffffp-53
should be: 2.2204460492503131e-16 0x1.0000000000000p-52
difference: 2.4651903288156619e-32 0x1.0000000000000p-105
ulp : 0.5000
max.ulp : 0.0000
Maximal error of `log_upward'
is : 1 ulp
accepted: 0 ulp
(for formats other than ldbl-128ibm, 0.5 ulp errors only occur in
unusual cases such as this where the correctly rounded result is a
power of 2 and the computed result is just below it). This should not
affect which cases result in the test failing, just ensure that if it
fails then some failure for an individual function call was reported.
Tested for x86_64 and x86.
* math/libm-test.inc (check_float_internal): Do not special-case
errors up to 0.5 ulp.
j1 and jn can underflow for small arguments, but fail to set errno
when underflowing to 0. This patch fixes them to set errno in that
case.
Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 and powerpc.

The implementations of nearbyint functions using x87 floating point
(i386 all versions, x86_64 long double only) use the fclex
instruction, which clears any exceptions that were raised before the
function was called. These functions must not clear exceptions that
were raised before they were called.
This patch fixes these functions to save and restore the whole
floating-point environment (fnstenv / fldenv) as the way of avoiding
raising "inexact" (recall that there isn't an x87 instruction for
loading just the status word, so the whole environment has to be saved
and loaded instead - the code already saved and loaded the control
word, which is now obtained from the saved environment after this
patch, to disable traps on "inexact"). In the case of the long double
functions, any "invalid" exception from frndint (applied to a
signaling NaN) needs merging into the saved state; this issue doesn't
apply to the float and double functions because that exception would
have been raised when the argument is loaded, before the environment
is saved.
[BZ #15491]

Wilco fixed this tilegx bug in commit fe8c2b33ae ("Since we
now inline isinf, isnan and isfinite in math.h, replace uses
of __isinf_ns(l/f) with isinf, and remove the unused inlines
__isinf_ns(l/f), __isnan(f) and __finite(f).")
I verified that reverting math/s_cprojf.c back to using the
sysdeps/ieee754/flt-32/math_private.h version of __isinf_nsf()
instead of isinf() brings back the bug on tilegx.
Since GLIBC requires a minimum 2.6.32 kernel, the patch cleanups
the mips code to assume __NR_sync_file_range and the powerpc one
to either assume __NR_sync_file_range2 or __NR_sync_file_range.
Checked on powerpc64le and build for mips (ABIO32, ABIN32, and ABI64).
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc64/sync_file_range.c
(__NR_sync_file_range2): Assume it is always defined.

This patch makes the io/tst-fcntl test create its temporary file in
do_prepare not do_test, so that add_temp_name is called in the parent
on the correct file name, as requested in the thread starting at
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-10/msg00552.html>. I don't
see any reason in this test that opening the file in the parent should
be problematic.
This patch is explicitly not exhaustive for such issues; other tests
still call add_temp_file in the child. The general issue is noted at
<https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Development_Todo/Master#Use_test-skeleton.c>.
Tested for x86_64 (that this test still passes and no longer leaves a
file behind in /tmp).
* io/tst-fcntl.c (fd): New static variable.
(do_prepare): Open temporary file here....
(do_test): ...not here.
The test io/ftwtest-sh creates a directory that at some points during
the test does not have execute permission. To avoid leaving behind
such a directory that prevents the build directory from being removed
with a simple "rm -rf", it traps various signals to make the directory
executable and remove it before exit. However, this doesn't cover the
case where one of the tests simply fails (which happens with cross
testing if testing on a remote system where the path to the build
directory involves a symlink, or if that remote system fell over
during testing - I think the latter is the case where the directory is
left behind with bad permissions).
This patch makes that test also trap signal 0 (exit) so that the
directory gets properly removed in such failure cases as well.
Tested in both configurations where the test passes and where it fails
to verify that the result of the test is unchanged but the directory
is no longer left behind where it was previously left behind.
* io/ftwtest-sh: Also trap on exit to remove temporary files.
Need to provide i386 __libc_do_syscall when PROF is defined.
Define OPTIMIZE_FOR_GCC_5 for .S files so that it can be used
in libc-do-syscall.S.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/libc-do-syscall.S: Replace
__GNUC_PREREQ (5,0) with OPTIMIZE_FOR_GCC_5.

Moved before "#ifdef __ASSEMBLER__".
My recent addition of more tests for j0 showed up that the ldbl-128
implementation of j0l produces spurious underflow exceptions for
arguments close to 0 (when the result is very close to 1). This patch
fixes this by just returning the argument in that case.
Tested for mips64 (where it fixes the recently-added tests that were
previously failing).
[BZ #19156]
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/e_j0l.c (__ieee754_j0l): Return 1 for
arguments very close to 0.
PSEUDO_END and PSEUDO_END_NOERRNO are being defined in
sysdeps/unix/sysdep.h and then redefined for tile. Add an
undef before each define to silence the warnings.
Since asm ("ebp") can't be used to put the 6th argument in %ebp for
syscall when compiling for profiling, we disable GCC 5 optimization
when PROF is defined.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/sysdep.h (OPTIMIZE_FOR_GCC_5):
New. Defined for GCC 5 and above when not compiling for

Update a comment too.
This patch makes glibc build with -Wold-style-definition to avoid
old-style function definitions creeping back in by accident.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed shared
libraries are unchanged by the patch). Also tested build for arm,
mips64 and powerpc32. Hopefully there aren't any remaining
system-specific files with old-style definitions whose formatting
evaded my searches, but if there are, they will be easy to fix.
* Makeconfig (+gccwarn-c): Add -Wold-style-definition.
* Makefile ($(objpfx)c++-types-check.out): Filter out
$(+gccwarn-c) instead of -Wstrict-prototypes.
This patch converts a few more function definitions in glibc from
old-style K&R to prototype style. This is sufficient to build and
test on x86_64 and x86 with -Wold-style-definition (I'll test on some
more architectures before proposing the actual addition of
-Wold-style-definition).

This mostly automatically-generated patch converts 113 function
definitions in glibc from old-style K&R to prototype-style. Following
my other recent such patches, this one deals with the case of function
definitions in files that either contain assertions or where grep
suggested they might contain assertions - and thus where it isn't
possible to use a simple object code comparison as a sanity check on
the correctness of the patch, because line numbers are changed.
A few such automatically-generated changes needed to be supplemented
by manual changes for the result to compile. openat64 had a prototype
declaration with "..." but an old-style definition in
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/dl-openat64.c, and "..." needed adding to the
generated prototype in the definition (I've filed
<https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=68024> for diagnosing
such cases in GCC; the old state was undefined behavior not requiring
a diagnostic, but one seems a good idea). In addition, as Florian has
noted regparm attribute mismatches between declaration and definition
are only diagnosed for prototype definitions, and five functions
needed internal_function added to their definitions (in the case of
__pthread_mutex_cond_lock, via the macro definition of
__pthread_mutex_lock) to compile on i386.
After this patch is in, remaining old-style definitions are probably
most readily fixed manually before we can turn on
-Wold-style-definition for all builds.

There is a configure test for assembler support for the
gnu_unique_object symbol type. This support was added in binutils
2.20, so is present in all versions supported for building glibc.
Thus, I think the configure test can be removed; this patch does so.
Now, there is a caveat that the gas NEWS entry refers to this as a
feature for GNU/Linux targets. But the condition is use of
ELFOSABI_GNU or ELFOSABI_NONE. ELFOSABI_GNU covers Hurd as well as
GNU/Linux (as was the case with the older ELFOSABI_LINUX name), and
ELFOSABI_NONE means this is effectively OS-independent. Furthermore,
I think a correct binutils port for any glibc target ought to support
this feature for use with glibc; glibc supports this as an
OS-independent feature (the configure test is only about glibc
testcases).
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that installed shared libraries are
unchanged by the patch).

Two glibc makefiles use -Wno-strict-prototypes. I don't know if this

prototype style, but it's not needed now; this patch removes it.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed stripped
shared libraries are unchanged by the patch).
* posix/Makefile (CFLAGS-regex.c): Remove variable.
* resolv/Makefile (+cflags): Do not use -Wno-strict-prototypes.
With gcc-4.9, a new -fstack-protector-strong flag is available that is
between -fstack-protector (pretty weak) and -fstack-protector-all (pretty
strong) that provides good trade-offs between overhead but still providing
good coverage. Update the places in glibc that use ssp to use this flag
when it's available.
This also kills off the indirection of hardcoding the flag name in the
Makefiles and adding it based on a have-ssp boolean. Instead, the build
always expands the $(stack-protector) variable to the best ssp setting.
This makes the build logic a bit simpler and allows people to easily set
to a diff flag like:
make stack-protector=-fstack-protector-all
Since ld.so internel __fxstatat64 is only used internally in ld.so, it
can be made hidden.
[BZ #19122]
* include/sys/stat.h [IS_IN (rtld)] (__fxstatat64): Add
attribute_hidden.
The previous code used to evaluate the preprocessor token is_lock_free to
a variable before starting a transaction. This behavior can cause an
error if another thread got the lock (without using a transaction)
between the evaluation of the token and the beginning of the transaction.
This bug can be triggered with the following order of events:
1. The lock accessed by is_lock_free is free.
2. Thread T1 evaluates is_lock_free and stores into register R1 that the
lock is free.
3. Thread T2 acquires the same lock used in is_lock_free.
4. T1 begins the transaction, creating a memory barrier where is_lock_free
is false, but R1 is true.
5. T1 reads R1 and doesn't abort the transaction.
6. T1 calls ELIDE_UNLOCK, which reads false from is_lock_free and decides
to unlock a lock acquired by T2, leading to undefined behavior.
This patch delays the evaluation of is_lock_free to inside a transaction
by moving this part of the code to the macro ELIDE_LOCK.
[BZ #18743]
* sysdeps/powerpc/nptl/elide.h (__elide_lock): Move most of this
code to...
(ELIDE_LOCK): ...here.
(__get_new_count): New function with part of the code from
__elide_lock that updates the value of adapt_count after a
transaction abort.
(__elided_trylock): Moved this code to...
(ELIDE_TRYLOCK): ...here.
If grantpt() is called from a thread that is masking signals (for
instance, from a program using signalfd or using a dedicated
signal-handling thread), then that mask will get inherited to pt_chown.
This means that signals like SIGINT will not interrup pt_chown, so if it
hangs (e.g., because getgrnam("tty") hangs on a remote name service),
Ctrl-C will terminate the parent process but leave pt_chown around. Since
it's setuid, it's hard to kill any other way.
It is safe for pt_chown to unmask all signals, because grantpt() can be
(and usually is) called from an unprivileged process with all signals
unmasked.
There is a configure test for -fgnu89-inline. This option was added
in GCC 4.2, so the test is obsolete; this patch removes it.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that installed shared libraries are
unchanged by the patch).
* configure.ac (libc_cv_gnu89_inline): Remove configure test.
* configure: Regenerated.
* config.make.in (gnu89-inline-CFLAGS): Remove variable.
* Makeconfig (CFLAGS): Use -fgnu89-inline instead of
$(gnu89-inline-CFLAGS).
There are configure tests for assembler .weak support, and, as a
fallback, for .weakext support.
.weakext appears to be an ECOFF thing (although a few ELF targets
support it as well). .weak has been supported by the GNU assembler
for ELF targets since version 2.2, so given the requirement for ELF
the configure tests are obsolete; this patch removes them.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that installed shared libraries are
unchanged by the patch).
* configure.ac (libc_cv_asm_weak_directive): Remove configure
test.
(libc_cv_asm_weakext_directive): Likewise.
* configure: Regenerated.
* config.h.in (HAVE_ASM_WEAK_DIRECTIVE): Remove #undef.
(HAVE_ASM_WEAKEXT_DIRECTIVE): Likewise.
* include/libc-symbols.h
[!HAVE_ASM_WEAK_DIRECTIVE && !HAVE_ASM_WEAKEXT_DIRECTIVE]: Remove
#error.
[HAVE_ASM_WEAKEXT_DIRECTIVE]: Remove conditional code.
[!HAVE_ASM_WEAKEXT_DIRECTIVE]: Make code unconditional.
The previous (11th) version of the Hungarian spelling rules (released
in 1984) said that the separator had to be a dot, e.g. 10.35 meaning
10 o'clock 35 minutes. glibc correctly implements this.
The brand new (12th) version, in effect since September 1, 2015 adopts
to the common use of colon (especially in the digital world) and
allows to use either separator, without even expressing a preference.
For computer systems, using colons is way more typical and probably
easier to recognize. Dot is typically used in printed materials.
It also avoids an almost ambiguous situation where a space makes a
difference, e.g. "10.15-ig" means "until 10 o'clock 15 minutes"
whereas "10. 15-ig" means "until 15th of October". So I believe using
the colon as the separator is not only more frequent in the computer
world, but is also easier and quicker to recognize for the brain that
it's about hour:minute rather than month and day. And luckily it's now
equally correct according to the official rules.
11th edition: http://helyesiras.mta.hu/helyesiras/default/akh11
12th edition: http://helyesiras.mta.hu/helyesiras/default/akh12
In both editions it's the very last (299th and 300th, respectively) rule.
Microsoft also uses and recommends a colon since at least May 2011:

The time format is different in common language and in the language of
IT. In common texts we usually do not abbreviate, so the full forms are
used: “7 óra 10 perckor csörgött a telefon”. However, the short format,
consisting of numerals only, can also be used. In this case a period
must be used between the two numbers and there must not be a space
between them: “találkozzunk 10.45-kor”.
However, in software mostly the short format is used, and the numbers
are separated by a colon. An obvious example is the clock in the bottom
right corner of your screen, thus 18:31.
This patch improves the libm test coverage for a few more functions.
Tested for x86_64 and x86.
* math/libm-test.inc (fabs_test_data): Add more tests.
(fdim_test_data): Likewise.
(fma_test_data): Likewise.
(fmax_test_data): Likewise.
(fmin_test_data): Likewise.

This patch adds more tests for ceil, floor, round and trunc, with a
particular focus on verifying they don't raise spurious "inexact"
exceptions for integer arguments (a C99 / C11 requirement, as opposed
to the general principle that they shouldn't raise "inexact" for any
arguments at all which is a TS 18661-1 requirement).
Tested for x86_64 and x86.
* math/libm-test.inc (ceil_test_data): Add more tests and more
expectations for "inexact".
(floor_test_data): Add more tests.
(round_test_data): Likewise.
(trunc_test_data): Likewise.
