Long ago static startup did not parse the auxiliary vector and therefore
could not get at any `AT_FPUCW' tag to check whether upon FPU context
allocation the kernel would use a FPU control word setting different to
that provided by the `__fpu_control' variable. Static startup therefore
always initialized the FPU control word, forcing immediate FPU context
allocation even for binaries that otherwise never used the FPU.
As from GIT commit f8f900ecb9 static
startup supports parsing the auxiliary vector, so now it can avoid
explicit initialization of the FPU control word, just as can dynamic
startup, in the usual case where the setting written to the FPU control
word would be the same as the kernel uses. This defers FPU context
allocation until the binary itself actually pokes at the FPU.
Note that the `AT_FPUCW' tag is usually absent from the auxiliary vector
in which case _FPU_DEFAULT is assumed to be the kernel default.
run-via-rtld-prefix checks whether the program to be run is a static
test and skips if it is. This is fine, except that it assumes that
the program to be run is the second $^, which is true only for tests.
This change creates an rtld-prefix, which is simply the dynamic linker
prefix with the necessary arguments and uses that in the non-test
targets.
The wiki "Regeneration" page has this to say about update ULPs.
"The libm-test-ulps files are semiautomatically updated. To
update an ulps baseline, run each of the failing tests (test-float,
test-double, etc.) with -u; this will generate a file called ULPs;
concatenate each of those files with the existing libm-test-ulps
file, after removing any entries for particularly huge numbers of
ulps that you do not want to mark as expected. Then run
gen-libm-test.pl -n -u FILE where FILE is the concatenated file
produced in the previous step. This generates a file called
NewUlps which is the new sorted version of libm-test-ulps."
The same information is listed in math/README.libm-test, and is a
lot of manual work that you often want to run over-and-over again
while working on a particular test.
The `regen-ulps' convenience target does this automatically for
developers.
We strictly assume the source tree is readonly and add a
new --output-dir option to libm-test.inc to allow for writing
out ULPs to $(objpfx).
When run the new target does the following:
* Starts with the baseline ULPs file.
* Runs each of the libm math tests with -u.
* Adds new changes seen with -u to the baseline.
* Sorts and prepares the test output with gen-libm-test.pl.
* Leaves math/NewUlps in your build tree to copy to your source
tree, cleanup, and checkin.
The math test documentation in math/README.libm-test is updated
document the new Makefile target.

[BZ #6794]
Following Joseph comments about bug 6794, here is a proposed fix. It turned out
to be a large fix mainly because I had to move some file along to follow libm
files/names conventions.
Basically I have added wrappers (w_ilogb.c, w_ilogbf.c, w_ilogbl.c) that now calls
the symbol '__ieee754_ilogb'. The wrappers checks for '__ieee754_ilogb' output and
set the errno and raise exceptions as expected.
The '__ieee754_ilogb' is implemented in sysdeps. I have moved the 's_ilogb[f|l]' files
to e_ilogb[f|l] and renamed the '__ilogb[f|l]' to '__ieee754_ilogb[f|l]'.
I also found out a bug in i386 and x86-64 assembly coded ilogb implementation where
it raises a FE_DIVBYZERO when argument is '0.0'. I corrected this issue as well.
Finally I added the errno and FE_INVALID tests for 0.0, NaN and +-InF argument. Tested
on i386, x86-64, ppc32 and ppc64.

* time/strftime.c: Comment fixes for references to obsolescent
standards, In most cases the simplest fix is to remove the
confusing comments. Cross-referencing all the standards properly
is a bit of a pain, and it should be enough to put that info in
the documentation as I did in my recent time.texi patch.

* manual/time.texi (Formatting Calendar Time):
ISO C99 also specifies the E and O modifiers.
%P is a GNU extension, and is not in ISO C99.
Mention that %r is equivalent to %I:%M:%S %p in the POSIX locale.
%T is also in ISO C99.
The RFC 822 example is not valid in arbitrary locales.
Reword the POSIX.2 wording slightly, to make it a bit clearer
that POSIX.2 formats are also supported by later POSIX versions.
If a format was introduced in ISO C99 it is also required by
POSIX.1-2001.
