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 6694 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c
and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this
diagnostic from Savannah:
remote: *** pre-commit check failed ...
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
Commit a601b74d31 aka glibc-2.23~693
("In preparation for fixing BZ#16734, fix failure in misc/tst-error1-mem
when _G_HAVE_MMAP is turned off.") introduced a regression:
_IO_unbuffer_all now invokes _IO_wsetb to free wide buffers of all
files, including legacy standard files which are small statically
allocated objects that do not have wide buffers and the _mode member,
causing memory corruption.
Another memory corruption in _IO_unbuffer_all happens when -1
is assigned to the _mode member of legacy standard files that
do not have it.
[BZ #24228]
* libio/genops.c (_IO_unbuffer_all)
[SHLIB_COMPAT (libc, GLIBC_2_0, GLIBC_2_1)]: Do not attempt to free wide
buffers and access _IO_FILE_complete members of legacy libio streams.
* libio/tst-bz24228.c: New file.
* libio/tst-bz24228.map: Likewise.
* libio/Makefile [build-shared] (tests): Add tst-bz24228.
[build-shared] (generated): Add tst-bz24228.mtrace and
tst-bz24228.check.
[run-built-tests && build-shared] (tests-special): Add
$(objpfx)tst-bz24228-mem.out.
(LDFLAGS-tst-bz24228, tst-bz24228-ENV): New variables.
($(objpfx)tst-bz24228-mem.out): New rule.
