I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 7061 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,
support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and
sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't
know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not.

This patch significantly improves performance of memmem using a novel
modified Horspool algorithm. Needles up to size 256 use a bad-character
table indexed by hashed pairs of characters to quickly skip past mismatches.
Long needles use a self-adapting filtering step to avoid comparing the whole
needle repeatedly.
By limiting the needle length to 256, the shift table only requires 8 bits
per entry, lowering preprocessing overhead and minimizing cache effects.
This limit also implies worst-case performance is linear.
Small needles up to size 2 use a dedicated linear search. Very long needles
use the Two-Way algorithm (to avoid increasing stack size or slowing down
the common case, inlining is disabled).
The performance gain is 6.6 times on English text on AArch64 using random
needles with average size 8.
Tested against GLIBC testsuite and randomized tests.

* string/memmem.c (__memmem): Rewrite to improve performance.
As done in commit 284f42bc77, memcmp
can be used after memchr to avoid the initialization overhead of the
two-way algorithm for the first match. This has shown improvement
>40% for first match.
Improve strstr performance. Strstr tends to be slow because it uses
many calls to memchr and a slow byte loop to scan for the next match.
Performance is significantly improved by using strnlen on larger blocks
and using strchr to search for the next matching character. strcasestr
can also use strnlen to scan ahead, and memmem can use memchr to check
for the next match.
On the GLIBC bench tests the performance gains on Cortex-A72 are:
strstr: +25%
strcasestr: +4.3%
memmem: +18%
On a 256KB dataset strstr performance improves by 67%, strcasestr by 47%.

Locale code, brought in by ISO C functions, calls memmem, which is not
an ISO C function. This isn't an ISO C conformance bug, because all
mem* names are reserved, but glibc practice is not to rely on that
reservation (thus, memmem is only declared in string.h if __USE_GNU
even though ISO C would allow it to be declared unconditionally, for
example). This patch changes that code to use __memmem.
Note: there are uses of memmem elsewhere in glibc that I didn't
change, although it may turn out some of those also need to use
__memmem.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that disassembly of installed shared
libraries is unchanged by this patch).
[BZ #17585]
* string/memmem.c [!_LIBC] (__memmem): Define to memmem.
(memmem): Rename to __memmem and define as weak alias of
__memmem. Use libc_hidden_weak.
(__memmem): Use libc_hidden_def.
* include/string.h (__memmem): Declare. Use libc_hidden_proto.
* locale/findlocale.c (valid_locale_name): Use __memmem instead of
memmem.

Rewrite string searches to O(n) rather than O(n^2).
* string/str-two-way.h: New file. For linear fixed-allocation
string searching.
* string/memmem.c: New implementation.
* string/strstr.c: New implementation.
* string/strcasestr.c: New implementation.
* sysdeps/posix/getaddrinfo.c (getaddrinfo): Call _res_hconf_init
