The tgkill function is sometimes used in crash handlers.
<bits/signal_ext.h> follows the same approach as <bits/unistd_ext.h>
(which was added for the gettid system call wrapper).

The stub implementations are turned into compat symbols.
Linux actually has two reserved system call numbers (for getpmsg
and putpmsg), but these system calls have never been implemented,
and there are no plans to implement them, so this patch replaces
the wrappers with the generic stubs.
According to <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=436349>,
the presence of the XSI STREAMS declarations is a minor portability
hazard because they are not actually implemented.
This commit does not change the TIRPC support code in
sunrpc/rpc_svcout.c. It uses additional XTI functionality and
therefore never worked with glibc.

This commit adds gettid to <unistd.h> on Linux, and not to the
kernel-independent GNU API.
gettid is now supportable on Linux because too many things assume a
1:1 mapping between libpthread threads and kernel threads.

The Linux nfsservctl syscall was removed in Linux 3.1. Since the
minimum kernel version for use with glibc is 3.2, the glibc wrapper
for this syscall can no longer usefully be called. This patch makes
it into a compat symbol, not provided at all for static linking or new
ports. (It was already the case that there was no header declaration
of this function.)
Tested for x86_64.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list (nfsservctl): Make into a
compat symbol, disabled for minimum symbol version GLIBC_2.28 and
later.
This adds system call wrappers for pkey_alloc, pkey_free, pkey_mprotect,
and x86-64 implementations of pkey_get and pkey_set, which abstract over
the PKRU CPU register and hide the actual number of memory protection
keys supported by the CPU. pkey_mprotect with a -1 key is implemented
using mprotect, so it will work even if the kernel does not support the
pkey_mprotect system call.
The system call wrapers use unsigned int instead of unsigned long for
parameters, so that no special treatment for x32 is needed. The flags
argument is currently unused, and the access rights bit mask is limited
to two bits by the current PKRU register layout anyway.

The system call is somewhat obscure because it is closely related
to file descriptor sealing. However, it is also the recommended
way to create alias mappings, which is why it has more general use.
No emulation is provided. Except for the name of the
/proc/self/fd links, it would be possible to implement an
approximation using O_TMPFILE and tmpfs, but this does not appear
to be worth the added complexity.

This patch remove the PID cache and usage in current GLIBC code. Current
usage is mainly used a performance optimization to avoid the syscall,
however it adds some issues:
- The exposed clone syscall will try to set pid/tid to make the new
thread somewhat compatible with current GLIBC assumptions. This cause
a set of issue with new workloads and usecases (such as BZ#17214 and
[1]) as well for new internal usage of clone to optimize other algorithms
(such as clone plus CLONE_VM for posix_spawn, BZ#19957).
- The caching complexity also added some bugs in the past [2] [3] and
requires more effort of each port to handle such requirements (for
both clone and vfork implementation).
- Caching performance gain in mainly on getpid and some specific
code paths. The getpid performance leverage is questionable [4],
either by the idea of getpid being a hotspot as for the getpid
implementation itself (if it is indeed a justifiable hotspot a
vDSO symbol could let to a much more simpler solution).
Other usage is mainly for non usual code paths, such as pthread
cancellation signal and handling.
For thread creation (on stack allocation) the code simplification in fact
adds some performance gain due the no need of transverse the stack cache
and invalidate each element pid.
Other thread usages will require a direct getpid syscall, such as
cancellation/setxid signal, thread cancellation, thread fail path (at
create_thread), and thread signal (pthread_kill and pthread_sigqueue).
However these are hardly usual hotspots and I think adding a syscall is
justifiable.
It also simplifies both the clone and vfork arch-specific implementation.
And by review each fork implementation there are some discrepancies that
this patch also solves:
- microblaze clone/vfork does not set/reset the pid/tid field
- hppa uses the default vfork implementation that fallback to fork.
Since vfork is deprecated I do not think we should bother with it.
The patch also removes the TID caching in clone. My understanding for
such semantic is try provide some pthread usage after a user program
issue clone directly (as done by thread creation with CLONE_PARENT_SETTID
and pthread tid member). However, as stated before in multiple discussions
threads, GLIBC provides clone syscalls without further supporting all this
semantics.
I ran a full make check on x86_64, x32, i686, armhf, aarch64, and powerpc64le.
For sparc32, sparc64, and mips I ran the basic fork and vfork tests from
posix/ folder (on a qemu system). So it would require further testing
on alpha, hppa, ia64, m68k, nios2, s390, sh, and tile (I excluded microblaze
because it is already implementing the patch semantic regarding clone/vfork).

This patch consolidates all Linux setrlimit and getrlimit on the default
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/{set,get}rlimit{64}.c. It contains two exceptions:
1. mips32 and mips64n32 which requires a versioned symbol for GLIBC 2.19
and higher due a broken RLIM64_INFINITY constant.
2. sparc32 does not define a compat symbol for getrlimit64 for old 2GB
limit. I am not sure if it is required, but a RLIM_INFINITY fix [1]
change its definition without adding a compat symbol. This patch does
not aim to address this possible issue, it follow current symbol
export.
The default implementation uses prlimit64 for 64 bit rlim_t ({set,get}rlimit64)
and if it fails with ENOSYS it fall back to {get,set}rlimit syscall. This
code path is only used on kernel older than 2.6.36 (basically now only x86)
and I avoid to user __ASSUME_PRLIMTI64 to simplify the implementation. Once
x86 moves to be on par with other architectures regarding minimum kernel
supported we can get rid of using old syscalls and default path.
A new type size define is added, __RLIM_T_MATCHES_RLIM64_T, where is set as
default for 64 bits ports. This allows the default implementation to avoid
{get,set}rlimit building and alias {get,set}rlimit64 to {get,set}rlimit.
Checked on x86_64, i386, armhf, aarch64, and powerpc64le. I also did a
sanity build plus check-abi on all other supported architectures.

Given current Linux kernel version requirements, we can assume the
presence of the eventfd2 syscall. This means that __ASSUME_EVENTFD2
can be removed, and a syscalls.list entry suffices for eventfd instead
of needing a .c file. This patch implements those changes.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (not that that means much, given the lack of
testsuite coverage for eventfd).

The personality system call, starting with linux kernel commit
v2.6.29-6609-g11d06b2a1e5658f448a308aa3beb97bacd64a940, always
successfully changes the personality if requested. The syscall
wrapper, however, still can return an error in the following cases:
- the value returned by the system call looks like an error
due to architecture limitations of 32-bit kernels;
- a personality greater than 0xffffffff is passed to the system call,
and the 64-bit kernel does not have commit
v2.6.35-rc1-372-g485d527686850d68a0e9006dd9904f19f122485e
that would truncate this value to unsigned int;
- on sparc64, the value returned by the system call looks like an error
due to sparc64 kernel sign extension bug.
The solution is three-fold:
- move generic syscalls.list personality entry to generic 64-bit
syscalls.list file;
- for each 32-bit architecture that use negated errno semantics,
add a NOERRNO personality entry to their syscalls.list file;
- for sparc64 and 32-bit architectures that use dedicated registers
to flag syscall errors, add a wrapper around personality syscall;
if the system call return value is flagged as an error, this wrapper
returns the negated "would be errno" value, otherwise it returns
the system call return value; on sparc64, it also truncates the
personality argument to unsigned int before passing it to the kernel.

Various Linux kernel syscalls have become obsolete over time.
Specifically, the following are obsolete in all kernel versions
supported by glibc, are not present for architectures more recently
added to the kernel, and as such, the wrapper functions for them
should be compat symbols, not in static libc and not available for new
links with shared libc.
* bdflush: in Linux 2.6, does nothing if present.
* create_module get_kernel_syms query_module: Linux 2.4 module
interface, syscalls not present in Linux 2.6.
* uselib: part of the mechanism for loading a.out shared libraries,
irrelevant with ELF.
This patch adds support for syscalls.list to list syscall aliases of
the form NAME@VERSION:OBSOLETED, with SHLIB_COMPAT conditionals being
generated for such aliases. Those five syscalls are then made into
compat symbols (obsoleted in glibc 2.23, so future ports won't have
these symbols at all), with the header <sys/kdaemon.h> declaring
bdflush being removed. When we move to 3.2 as minimum kernel version,
the same can be done for nfsservctl (removed in Linux 3.1) as well.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, as well as checking that the
symbols in question indeed become compat symbols, that they are indeed
omitted from static libc, and that the generated SHLIB_COMPAT
conditionals look right).

Profiling git's test suite, Linus noted [1] that a disproportionately
large amount of time was spent reading /proc/meminfo. This is done by
the glibc functions get_phys_pages and get_avphys_pages, but they only
need the MemTotal and MemFree fields, respectively. That same
information can be obtained with a single syscall, sysinfo, instead of
six: open, fstat, mmap, read, close, munmap. While sysinfo also
provides more than necessary, it does a lot less work than what the
kernel needs to do to provide the entire /proc/meminfo. Both strace -T
and in-app microbenchmarks shows that the sysinfo() approach is
roughly an order of magnitude faster.
sysinfo() is much older than what glibc currently requires, so I don't
think there's any reason to keep the old parsing code. Moreover, this
makes get_[av]phys_pages work even in the absence of /proc.
Linus noted that something as simple as 'bash -c "echo"' would trigger
the reading of /proc/meminfo, but gdb says that many more applications
than just bash are affected:
Starting program: /bin/bash "-c" "echo"
Breakpoint 1, __get_phys_pages () at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/getsysstats.c:283
283 ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/getsysstats.c: No such file or directory.
(gdb) bt
So it seems that any application that uses qsort on a moderately sized
array will incur this cost (once), which is obviously proportionately
more expensive for lots of short-lived processes (such as the git test
suite).

mq_receive calls mq_timedreceive, and mq_send calls mq_timedsend. But
mq_receive and mq_send were in POSIX by 1996, while mq_timed* were
added in the 2001 edition of POSIX. This patch fixes this by making
mq_timed* into weak aliases for __mq_timed* and calling the
__mq_timed* names.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that disassembly of
installed shared libraries is unchanged by the patch).

The syscall wrappers mechanism automatically creates hidden aliases
for syscalls with libc_hidden_def / libc_hidden_weak. The use of
libc_hidden_* has the side-effect that for syscall wrappers in
non-libc libraries those aliases are not created. In turn, this means
that three mq_* syscalls in sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list list
the __GI_* names explicitly.
The use of libc_hidden_* dates back to the original introduction of
that support in
2002-08-03 Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com>
* sysdeps/unix/make-syscalls.sh: Generate libc_hidden_def or
libc_hidden_weak for every system call symbol defined.
(predating the non-libc syscalls in question) and I see no reason for
excluding non-libc syscalls. This patch changes the code to use
hidden_def / hidden_weak (via a wrapper syscall_hidden_def in the case
where the argument is itself a macro, so that the argument gets
expanded before concatenation with __GI_), so avoiding the need to
specify the hidden aliases explicitly in this case.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that disassembly of
installed stripped shared libraries is unchanged by the patch; the
mq_* symbols change from weak to strong, which is of no significance
and two of them will shortly change back to weak as part of a fix for
bug 18545).

hidden_def and hidden_weak instead of libc_hidden_def and
libc_hidden_weak.

Continuing the removal of unused __libc_* function names, this patch
removes the __libc_nanosleep name.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that the disassembly of installed
shared libraries is unchanged by the patch; __nanosleep changes from
weak to strong, which is of no significance).
* posix/nanosleep.c (__libc_nanosleep): Rename to __nanosleep.

glibc has lots of __libc_* function names that no longer serve any
purpose (are not used for any calls or exported at a public symbol
version). This patch removes __libc_creat. It has the effect of
creat becoming a strong symbol instead of a weak symbol in various
cases, but that's fine; in shared libraries it doesn't matter at all,
while for static linking the only other symbol sometimes defined in
the same object is creat64, and whenever creat64 is a reserved name so
is creat.
Other such cases of unnecessary __libc_* symbols are expected to be
dealt with in separate patches over time.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that the disassembly of installed
shared libraries is unchanged by the patch).

Bug 14132 is removal of the old INTDEF/INTUSE system of *_internal
aliases as obsoleted by the hidden_proto / hidden_def system. Various
cases were cleaned up in 2012, but some remain. This patch removes
the use of this mechanism for __adjtimex.
Tested for x86_64 that stripped installed shared libraries are
unchanged by the patch.

Continuing the move of syscall definitions to syscalls.list, where
previous cleanups have made this possible, this patch moves the

possible.)

Continuing the move of syscall definitions to syscalls.list, where the

this patch moves definitions of various *at functions in
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/.
These particular moves are straightforward: there are no #includes of
these source files, no special architecture-specific versions, no
special symbol version handling and no aliases. Each source file can
be replaced by a single line in sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list.
