ARM has an override of the test math/test-fpucw.c, to disable (for
soft-float testing) definitions of hard-float macros in fpu_control.h
that the header normally defines not only when building for
hard-float, but also when building for soft-float with _LIBC defined
so that libc code can dynamically test whether VFP hardware is
present. (_LIBC is defined when building tests, although ideally it
wouldn't be.)
The override doesn't work for the derived tests test-fpucw-*.c because
they use #include "" instead of <> to include test-fpucw.c, so always
get the math/ version instead of the ARM sysdeps override. This patch
changes them to use <> so the sysdeps override is effective.
(test-fpucw-ieee-static.c doesn't need a change because it includes
test-fpucw-ieee.c, which isn't itself being overridden, which in turn
includes test-fpucw.c with a #include changed by this patch.)
Tested for ARM (big-endian soft-float, non-VFP hardware).
* math/test-fpucw-ieee.c: Use <> in #include of test-fpucw.c.
* math/test-fpucw-static.c: Likewise.
addgetnetgrentX has a buffer which is grown as per the needs of the
requested size either by using alloca or by falling back to malloc if
the size is larger than 1K. There are two problems with the alloca
bits: firstly, it doesn't really extend the buffer since it does not
use the return value of the extend_alloca macro, which is the location
of the reallocated buffer. Due to this the buffer does not actually
extend itself and hence a subsequent write may overwrite stuff on the
stack.
The second problem is more subtle - the buffer growth on the stack is
discontinuous due to block scope local variables. Combine that with
the fact that unlike realloc, extend_alloca does not copy over old
content and you have a situation where the buffer just has garbage in
the space where it should have had data.
This could have been fixed by adding code to copy over old data
whenever we call extend_alloca, but it seems unnecessarily
complicated. This code is not exactly a performance hotspot (it's
called when there is a cache miss, so factors like network lookup or
file reads will dominate over memory allocation/reallocation), so this
premature optimization is unnecessary.
Thanks Brad Hubbard <bhubbard@redhat.com> for his help with debugging
the problem.
The Translation Project has asked us to rename the
pot header file `header.pot' to something else. Their
scripts automatically look for pot files and the
file `header.pot' is not actually a pot file but a
header that we use when regenerating `libc.pot.'
This commit renames `header.pot' to `pot.header' to
avoid causing errors or complicating the TP project
scripts.
The truncl assembly implementation (sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/fpu/s_truncl.S)
returns wrong results for some inputs where first double is a exact integer
and the precision is determined by second long double.
Checking on implementation comments and history, I am very confident the
assembly implementation was based on a version before commit
5c68d40169 that fixes BZ#2423 (Errors in
long double (ldbl-128ibm) rounding functions in glibc-2.4).
By just removing the implementation and make the build select
sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_truncl.c instead it fixes tgammal
issues regarding wrong result sign.
This patch fixes bug 16408, ldbl-128ibm expm1l returning NaN for some
large arguments.
The basic problem is that the approach of converting the exponent to
the form n * log(2) + y, where -0.5 <= y <= 0.5, then computing 2^n *
expm1(y) + (2^n - 1) falls over when 2^n overflows (starting slightly
before the point where expm1 overflows, when y is negative and n is
the least integer for which 2^n overflows). The ldbl-128 code, and
the x86/x86_64 code, make expm1l fall back to expl for large positive
arguments to avoid this issue. This patch makes the ldbl-128ibm code
do the same. (The problem appears for the particular argument in the
testsuite because the ldbl-128ibm code also uses an overflow threshold
that's for ldbl-128 and is too big for ldbl-128ibm, but the problem
described applies for large non-overflowing cases as well, although
during the freeze is not a suitable time for making the expm1 tests
cover cases close to overflow more thoroughly.)
This leaves some code for large positive arguments in expm1l that is
now dead. To keep the code for ldbl-128 and ldbl-128ibm similar, and
to avoid unnecessary changes during the freeze, the patch doesn't
remove it; instead I propose to file a bug in Bugzilla as a reminder
that this code (for overflow, including errno setting, and for
arguments of +Inf) is no longer needed and should be removed from both
those expm1l implementations.
Tested powerpc32.
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_expm1l.c (__expm1l): Use __expl
for large positive arguments.
This patch marks more libm tests as expected to fail for ldbl-128ibm
in non-default rounding modes. Given this, my expm1l fix
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-01/msg00135.html> and my
libgcc fix <http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-01/msg00157.html>
for spurious overflows, the remaining failures in test-ldouble.out
(for powerpc32 hard float) are small ulps, spurious underflow and
inexact exceptions (the former probably arising from libgcc bugs
though I haven't checked each case; the latter are barely meaningful
for this format anyway when basic arithmetic isn't correctly rounding,
though most of them are probably GCC bug 59412 which doesn't actually
involve long double), missing underflow exceptions from clog, ctan and
ctanh (probably one of the known bugs for another function), and logb
in round-downward mode (bug 887, though it's really a GCC bug that
we're not currently working around).
Tested for powerpc32 hard float.
* math/auto-libm-test-in: Mark various tests with
xfail-rounding:ldbl-128ibm.
* math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated.
This patch fixes bug 16407, spurious overflows from ldbl-128ibm coshl.
The implementation assumed that a high part (reinterpreted as an
integer) of the absolute value of the argument of 0x408633ce8fb9f87dLL
or more meant overflow, but the actual threshold has high part
0x408633ce8fb9f87eLL (and a negative low part). The patch adjusts the
threshold accordingly.
sinhl probably has the same issue, but I didn't get that far in adding
tests of special cases (such as just below and above overflow) before
the freeze and during the freeze is not a suitable time to add them
(as they'd require ulps to be regenerated again), so I'm not changing
that function for now; when I add more tests of special cases, we'll
discover whether sinhl indeed has this problem.
Tested powerpc32.
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/e_coshl.c (__ieee754_coshl):
Increase overflow threshold.
This patch fixes bug 16400, spurious underflow exceptions for ldbl-128
/ ldbl-128ibm lgammal with small positive arguments, by just using
-__logl (x) as the result in the problem cases (similar to the
previous fix for problems with small negative arguments).
Tested powerpc32, and also tested on mips64 that this does not require
ulps regeneration for the ldbl-128 case.
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/e_lgammal_r.c (__ieee754_lgammal_r):
Return -__logl (x) for small positive arguments without evaluating
a polynomial.
All the other ptrace structures in this file have a __ prefix except this
new one. This in turn causes build problems for most packages that try to
use ptrace such as strace:
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../.. -I../../linux/x86_64 -I../../linux \
-I./linux -Wall -Wwrite-strings -g -O2 -MT process.o -MD -MP \
-MF .deps/process.Tpo -c -o process.o ../../process.c

Since this struct was introduced in glibc-2.18, there shouldn't be any
real regressions with adding the __ prefix.

Usage output for option --invalidate=TABLE is not helpful without
list of tables. The list is also missing from nscd(8) manual which
made it pretty difficult to know what are the tables.
This patch fixes bug 16390, incorrect signs of zero results from
ldbl-128ibm atan2l, soft-float only. The problem is a longstanding
GCC bug with fabsl not being correct for signed zero for soft float,
and the fix is using -fno-builtin-fabsl as a workaround, as already
done for various other source files. Tested powerpc-nofpu.
* sysdeps/powerpc/nofpu/Makefile [$(subdir) = math]
(CFLAGS-e_atan2l.c): Use -fno-builtin-fabsl.
This patch marks various libm tests with xfail-rounding:ldbl-128ibm,
where the failures appear to relate to GCC bug 59666 (bad libgcc
handling of directed rounding), so as to allow clean libm-test-ulps
regeneration without needing to edit out large ulps for various
functions manually.
Note that this only deals with the cases problematic for ulps
regeneration. There are plenty of test failures left that do not
affect ulps regeneration - results that are infinities or NaNs but
should be finite, or vice versa, and missing and spurious exceptions -
which should also be resolved during the release testing period.
Tested for powerpc32 (hard float).
* math/auto-libm-test-in: Mark various tests with
xfail-rounding:ldbl-128ibm.
* math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated.
This patch fixes bug 16386, ldbl-128ibm logl inaccuracy (with
consequent inaccuracy for lgammal) for arguments where the high double
is subnormal, which showed up while attempting to regenerate ulps for
powerpc-nofpu for 2.19. The problem here is logic failing to allow
for subnormals when calculating the exponent of the argument. Tested
for powerpc-nofpu.
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/e_logl.c (__ieee754_logl): Adjust
numbers with subnormal high part when calculating exponent.
This patch fixes bug 16385, ldbl-128ibm asinhl inaccuracy, which
showed up while attempting to regenerate ulps for powerpc-nofpu for
2.19. The problem here was use of fabs instead of fabsl meaning large
arguments were reduced to the precision of double. Tested for
powerpc-nofpu.
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_asinhl.c (__asinhl): Use fabsl not
fabs.
