[BZ #1349]
malloc_usable_size returns the usable size in an allocated chunk,
which may be >= the requested size. In the case of MALLOC_CHECK_ being
exported to > 0 however, only the requested size is usable, since a
magic value is written at the end of the request size to trap writes
beyond request bounds. Hence, when MALLOC_CHECK_ is exported to > 0,
malloc_usable_size() should return the request size.

* sysdeps/x86_64/dl-machine.h (elf_machine_dynamic): Use the
first element of the GOT.
(elf_machine_load_address): Return the difference between
the runtime address of _DYNAMIC and elf_machine_dynamic ().
The ttyname and ttyname_r functions on Linux now fall back to
searching for the tty file descriptor in /dev/pts or /dev if /proc is
not available. This allows creation of chroots without the procfs
mounted on /proc.
Fixes BZ #14516.
Initially based on the versions found in wcsmbs/* ; these files have
been changed by hand unrolling, and adding some additional variables
to allow some read-ahead to occur, which then relieves some of the
wait-for-increment/wait-for-load/wait-for-compare-results pressure
that was slowing down every iteration through the while-loop.
For 64-bit Power7, These changes give an approx 20% throughput boost
for the wcschr and wcsrchr functions; and approx 40% boost for the
wcscpy function. 32-bit improvements appear to be slightly better
with ~ %30 and ~ %45 respectively. Results for Power6 closely match
those for power7.

Add support for STT_GNU_IFUNC symbols and the new R_390_IRELATIVE
relocation. Provide optimized version of memcpy, memset, and memcmp
for z10 and z196.
[BZ #13579] Do not free l_initfini and allow it to be reused
on subsequent dl_open calls for the same library. This fixes
the invalid memory access in do_lookup_x when the previously
free'd l_initfini was accessed through l_searchlist when a
library had been opened for the second time.
[BZ #13882]
* elf/dl-deps.c (_dl_map_object_deps): Fix cycle detection. Use
uint16_t for elements in the "seen" array to avoid char overflows.

* elf/dl-open.c (dl_open_worker): Likewise.

When converting IBM930 code with iconv(), if IBM930 code which
includes invalid multibyte character "0xffff" is specified, then
iconv() segfaults. This is easy to see using the following command:
echo '0x0e 0x43 0x8c 0xff 0xff 0x43 0xbd 0x43 0xbd' | xxd -r |
iconv -f IBM930 -t UTF-8
[BZ #13743]
A new class of installed headers has been documented for low-level
platform-specific functionality. PowerPC added the first instance with a
function to provide time base register access (__ppc_get_timebase). This
is required for applications that measure time at high frequencies with
high precision that can't afford a syscall.
As of January 1st 2009, the "new" prefix was removed from the New
Turkish lira, its official name becoming "Turkish lira" again,
abbreviated "TL".
Patch by <gokcen@pardus.org.tr>.
When a stack is marked executable due to loading a DSO that requires
an executable stack, the logic tends to leave out a portion of stack
after the first frame, thus causing a difference in the value returned
by pthread_getattr_np before and after the stack is marked
executable. It ought to be possible to fix this by marking the rest of
the stack as executable too, but in the interest of marking as less of
the stack as executable as possible, the path this fix takes is to
make pthread_getattr_np also look at the first frame as the underflow
end of the stack and compute size and stack top accordingly.
The above happens only for the main process stack. NPTL thread stacks
are not affected by this change.
There is nothing in the POSIX specification to disallow a
single-threaded program from cancelling itself, so we forcibly enable
multiple_threads to allow the next available cancellation point in the
thread to run.
Also added additional tests to cover various cancellation scenarios.

Do not build manual anymore in the source dir. Also clean up the
Makefile and remove rules that have been used previously
when we had a stand-alone Makefile which was obsoleted recently.
Mention that ia64 has moved into ports/, and drop the old build/install
details that don't belong in the NEWS file in the first place.

POSIX 2008 states that if the input for 'logb[f|l]' is a subnormal number
it should be treated as if it were normalized. This means the
implementation should calculate the log2 of the mantissa and add it to the
subnormal exponent (-126 for float and -1022 for double and IBM long
double). This patch takes care of that.
New configure option --enable-obsolete-rpc makes the deprecated RPC
headers and functions available at compile time as they were before
version 2.14. This option will be removed at some time in the future
after the TI-RPC library becomes fully sufficient for the needs of
existing applications.
[BZ #14053]
GCC 4.7 might remove consecutive calls to e.g. lrintf since
the assembler instructions are the same and GCC does not know
that the result is different depending on the rounding mode. For
SSE instructions, the control register is not available so there
is no way to inform GCC about this. Therefore the asms are marked
as volatile.
[BZ #14083]
Fix warning when using strspn with -Wconversion:
$ gcc -Wconversion -O t.c
t.c: In function ‘main’:
t.c:8:7: warning: conversion to ‘long unsigned int’ from ‘int’ may change the sign of the result [-Wsign-conversion]
The current de_AT locale defines "Feber" for the month of February,
which is correct in some parts of Austria, but is not the standards.
This patch fixes the problem by changing it to the standards version
"Februar".

* locales/de_AT: Change month name from "Feber" to "Februar".
[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.
The British people apparently use am/pm in time, so make it available to
them. While we're here, sync the date_fmt field from en_GB to cy_GB.
Fedora has been carrying this for the better part of a decade, and Debian
has had it, and now that I've gotten a request from some British people
to add it to Gentoo, I'd rather get it merged into mainline.

* locales/cy_GB: Likewise. Also copy date_fmt from en_GB.
[BZ #11959]
* libio/stdio.h (fwrite, fwrite_unlocked): Remove __wur.
It is not necessarily an error to ignore fwrite's return
