7ec903e028 Implement C23 exp2m1, exp10m1
C23 adds various <math.h> function families originally defined in TS
18661-4.  Add the exp2m1 and exp10m1 functions (exp2(x)-1 and
exp10(x)-1, like expm1).

As with other such functions, these use type-generic templates that
could be replaced with faster and more accurate type-specific
implementations in future.  Test inputs are copied from those for
expm1, plus some additions close to the overflow threshold (copied
from exp2 and exp10) and also some near the underflow threshold.

exp2m1 has the unusual property of having an input (M_MAX_EXP) where
whether the function overflows (under IEEE semantics) depends on the
rounding mode.  Although these could reasonably be XFAILed in the
testsuite (as we do in some cases for arguments very close to a
function's overflow threshold when an error of a few ulps in the
implementation can result in the implementation not agreeing with an
ideal one on whether overflow takes place - the testsuite isn't smart
enough to handle this automatically), since these functions aren't
required to be correctly rounding, I made the implementation check for
and handle this case specially.

The Makefile ordering expected by lint-makefiles for the new functions
is a bit peculiar, but I implemented it in this patch so that the test
passes; I don't know why log2 also needed moving in one Makefile
variable setting when it didn't in my previous patches, but the
failure showed a different place was expected for that function as
well.

The powerpc64le IFUNC setup seems not to be as self-contained as one
might hope; it shouldn't be necessary to add IFUNCs for new functions
such as these simply to get them building, but without setting up
IFUNCs for the new functions, there were undefined references to
__GI___expm1f128 (that IFUNC machinery results in no such function
being defined, but doesn't stop include/math.h from doing the
redirection resulting in the exp2m1f128 and exp10m1f128
implementations expecting to call it).

Tested for x86_64 and x86, and with build-many-glibcs.py.

55eb99e9a9 Implement C23 log10p1
C23 adds various <math.h> function families originally defined in TS
18661-4.  Add the log10p1 functions (log10(1+x): like log1p, but for
base-10 logarithms).

This is directly analogous to the log2p1 implementation (except that
whereas log2p1 has a smaller underflow range than log1p, log10p1 has a
larger underflow range).  The test inputs are copied from those for
log1p and log2p1, plus a few more inputs in that wider underflow
range.

bb014f50c4 Implement C23 logp1
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.

79c52daf47 Implement C23 log2p1
C23 adds various <math.h> function families originally defined in TS
18661-4.  Add the log2p1 functions (log2(1+x): like log1p, but for
base-2 logarithms).

This illustrates the intended structure of implementations of all
these function families: define them initially with a type-generic
template implementation.  If someone wishes to add type-specific
implementations, it is likely such implementations can be both faster
and more accurate than the type-generic one and can then override it
for types for which they are implemented (adding benchmarks would be
desirable in such cases to demonstrate that a new implementation is
indeed faster).

The test inputs are copied from those for log1p.  Note that these
changes make gen-auto-libm-tests depend on MPFR 4.2 (or later).

The bulk of the changes are fairly generic for any such new function.
(sysdeps/powerpc/nofpu/Makefile only needs changing for those
type-generic templates that use fabs.)

da89496337 Use gcc __builtin_stdc_* builtins in stdbit.h if possible
The following patch uses the GCC 14 __builtin_stdc_* builtins in stdbit.h
for the type-generic macros, so that when compiled with GCC 14 or later,
it supports not just 8/16/32/64-bit unsigned integers, but also 128-bit
(if target supports them) and unsigned _BitInt (any supported precision).
And so that the macros don't expand arguments multiple times and can be
evaluated in constant expressions.

The new testcase is gcc's gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/builtin-stdc-bit-1.c
adjusted to test stdbit.h and the type-generic macros in there instead
of the builtins and adjusted to use glibc test framework rather than
gcc style tests with __builtin_abort ().

Linux 6.7 removed ia64 from the official tree [1], following the general
principle that a glibc port needs upstream support for the architecture

there are updates to various comments referencing ia64 for which removal
of those references seemed appropriate. The configuration is removed
from README and build-many-glibcs.py.

The CONTRIBUTED-BY, elf/elf.h, manual/contrib.texi (the porting
mention), *.po files, config.guess, and longlong.h are not changed.

For Linux it allows cleanup some clone2 support on multiple files.

b34b46b880 Implement C23 <stdbit.h>
C23 adds a header <stdbit.h> with various functions and type-generic
macros for bit-manipulation of unsigned integers (plus macro defines
related to endianness).  Implement this header for glibc.

The functions have both inline definitions in the header (referenced
by macros defined in the header) and copies with external linkage in
the library (which are implemented in terms of those macros to avoid
duplication).  They are documented in the glibc manual.  Tests, as
well as verifying results for various inputs (of both the macros and
the out-of-line functions), verify the types of those results (which
showed up a bug in an earlier version with the type-generic macro
stdc_has_single_bit wrongly returning a promoted type), that the
macros can be used at top level in a source file (so don't use ({})),
that they evaluate their arguments exactly once, and that the macros
for the type-specific functions have the expected implicit conversions
to the relevant argument type.

Jakub previously referred to -Wconversion warnings in type-generic
macros, so I've included a test with -Wconversion (but the only
warnings I saw and fixed from that test were actually in inline
functions in the <stdbit.h> header - not anything coming from use of
the type-generic macros themselves).

This implementation of the type-generic macros does not handle
unsigned __int128, or unsigned _BitInt types with a width other than
that of a standard integer type (and C23 doesn't require the header to
handle such types either).  Support for those types, using the new
type-generic built-in functions Jakub's added for GCC 14, can
reasonably be added in a followup (along of course with associated
tests).

This implementation doesn't do anything special to handle C++, or have
any tests of functionality in C++ beyond the existing tests that all
headers can be compiled in C++ code; it's not clear exactly what form
this header should take in C++, but probably not one using macros.

DIS ballot comment AT-107 asks for the word "count" to be added to the
names of the stdc_leading_zeros, stdc_leading_ones,
stdc_trailing_zeros and stdc_trailing_ones functions and macros.  I
don't think it's likely to be accepted (accepting any technical
comments would mean having an FDIS ballot), but if it is accepted at
the WG14 meeting (22-26 January in Strasbourg, starting with DIS
ballot comment handling) then there would still be time to update
glibc for the renaming before the 2.39 release.

The new functions and header are placed in the stdlib/ directory in
glibc, rather than creating a new toplevel stdbit/ or putting them in
string/ alongside ffs.

Tested for x86_64 and x86.

60c57b8467 Move CVE information into advisories directory

https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=blob_plain;f=advisories/GLIBC-SA-YYYY-NNNN

The file format at the moment is rudimentary and derives from the git
commit format, i.e. a subject line and a potentially multi-paragraph
description and then tags to describe some meta information.  This is a
loose format at the moment and could change as we evolve this.

bf033c0072 elf: Add glibc.mem.decorate_maps tunable
The PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME support is only enabled through a configurable
kernel switch, mainly because assigning a name to a
anonymous virtual memory area might prevent that area from being
merged with adjacent virtual memory areas.

For instance, with the following code:

   void *p1 = mmap (NULL,
                    1024 * 4096,
                    PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
                    MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS,
                    -1,
                    0);

   void *p2 = mmap (p1 + (1024 * 4096),
                    1024 * 4096,
                    PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
                    MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS,
                    -1,
                    0);

The kernel will potentially merge both mappings resulting in only one
segment of size 0x800000.  If the segment is names with
PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME with different names, it results in two mappings.

Although this will unlikely be an issue for pthread stacks and malloc
arenas (since for pthread stacks the guard page will result in
a PROT_NONE segment, similar to the alignment requirement for the arena
block), it still might prevent the mmap memory allocated for detail
malloc.

There is also another potential scalability issue, where the prctl
requires
to take the mmap global lock which is still not fully fixed in Linux
[1] (for pthread stacks and arenas, it is mitigated by the stack
cached and the arena reuse).

So this patch disables anonymous mapping annotations as default and
add a new tunable, glibc.mem.decorate_maps, can be used to enable
it.

bd77dd7e73 CVE-2023-4527: Stack read overflow with large TCP responses in no-aaaa mode
Without passing alt_dns_packet_buffer, __res_context_search can only
store 2048 bytes (what fits into dns_packet_buffer).  However,
the function returns the total packet size, and the subsequent
DNS parsing code in _nss_dns_gethostbyname4_r reads beyond the end
of the stack-allocated buffer.

Fixes commit f282cdbe7f ("resolv: Implement no-aaaa
stub resolver option") and bug 30842.

e7190fc73d linux: Add pidfd_getpid
This interface allows to obtain the associated process ID from the
process file descriptor.  It is done by parsing the procps fdinfo
information.  Its prototype is:

   pid_t pidfd_getpid (int fd)

It returns the associated pid or -1 in case of an error and sets the
errno accordingly.  The possible errno values are those from open, read,
and close (used on procps parsing), along with:

   - EBADF if the FD is negative, does not have a PID associated, or if
     the fdinfo fields contain a value larger than pid_t.

   - EREMOTE if the PID is in a separate namespace.

   - ESRCH if the process is already terminated.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu on Linux 4.15 (no CLONE_PIDFD or waitid
support), Linux 5.4 (full support), and Linux 6.2.

0d6f9f6265 posix: Add pidfd_spawn and pidfd_spawnp (BZ 30349)
Returning a pidfd allows a process to keep a race-free handle for a
child process, otherwise, the caller will need to either use pidfd_open
(which still might be subject to TOCTOU) or keep the old racy interface
base on pid_t.

To correct use pifd_spawn, the kernel must support not only returning
the pidfd with clone/clone3 but also waitid (P_PIDFD) (added on Linux
5.4).  If kernel does not support the waitid, pidfd return ENOSYS.
It avoids the need to racy workarounds, such as reading the procfs
fdinfo to get the pid to use along with other wait interfaces.

These interfaces are similar to the posix_spawn and posix_spawnp, with
the only difference being it returns a process file descriptor (int)
instead of a process ID (pid_t).  Their prototypes are:

  int pidfd_spawn (int *restrict pidfd,
                   const char *restrict file,
                   const posix_spawn_file_actions_t *restrict facts,
                   const posix_spawnattr_t *restrict attrp,
                   char *const argv[restrict],
                   char *const envp[restrict])

  int pidfd_spawnp (int *restrict pidfd,
                    const char *restrict path,
                    const posix_spawn_file_actions_t *restrict facts,
                    const posix_spawnattr_t *restrict attrp,
                    char *const argv[restrict_arr],
                    char *const envp[restrict_arr]);

A new symbol is used instead of a posix_spawn extension to avoid
possible issues with language bindings that might track the return
argument lifetime.  Although on Linux pid_t and int are interchangeable,
POSIX only states that pid_t should be a signed integer.

Both symbols reuse the posix_spawn posix_spawn_file_actions_t and
posix_spawnattr_t, to void rehash posix_spawn API or add a new one. It
also means that both interfaces support the same attribute and file
actions, and a new flag or file action on posix_spawn is also added
automatically for pidfd_spawn.

Also, using posix_spawn plumbing allows the reusing of most of the
current testing with some changes:

  - waitid is used instead of waitpid since it is a more generic
    interface.

  - tst-posix_spawn-setsid.c is adapted to take into consideration that
    the caller can check for session id directly.  The test now spawns
itself and writes the session id as a file instead.

  - tst-spawn3.c need to know where pidfd_spawn is used so it keeps an
    extra file description unused.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu on Linux 4.15 (no CLONE_PIDFD or waitid
support), Linux 5.4 (full support), and Linux 6.2.

ce2bfb8569 linux: Add posix_spawnattr_{get, set}cgroup_np (BZ 26371)
These functions allow to posix_spawn and posix_spawnp to use
CLONE_INTO_CGROUP with clone3, allowing the child process to
be created in a different cgroup version 2.  These are GNU
extensions that are available only for Linux, and also only
for the architectures that implement clone3 wrapper
(HAVE_CLONE3_WRAPPER).

To create a process on a different cgroupv2, one can use the:

  posix_spawnattr_t attr;
  posix_spawnattr_init (&attr);
  posix_spawnattr_setflags (&attr, POSIX_SPAWN_SETCGROUP);
  posix_spawnattr_setcgroup_np (&attr, cgroup);
  posix_spawn (...)

Similar to other posix_spawn flags, POSIX_SPAWN_SETCGROUP control
whether the cgroup file descriptor will be used or not with
clone3.

There is no fallback if either clone3 does not support the flag
or if the architecture does not provide the clone3 wrapper, in
this case posix_spawn returns EOPNOTSUPP.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.

92861d93cd linux: statvfs: allocate spare for f_type
This is the only missing part in struct statvfs.
The LSB calls [f]statfs() deprecated, and its weird types are definitely
off-putting. However, its use is required to get f_type.

Instead, allocate one of the six spares to f_type,
copied directly from struct statfs.
This then becomes a small glibc extension to the standard interface
on Linux and the Hurd, instead of two different interfaces, one of which
is quite odd due to being an ABI type, and there no longer is any reason
to use statfs().

The underlying kernel type is a mess, but all architectures agree on u32
(or more) for the ABI, and all filesystem magicks are 32-bit integers.
We don't lose any generality by using u32, and by doing so we both make
the API consistent with the Hurd, and allow C++
  switch(f_type) { case RAMFS_MAGIC: ...; }

Also fix tst-statvfs so that it actually fails;
as it stood, all it did was return 0 always.
Test statfs()' and statvfs()' f_types are the same.
