Calling setcontext from a signal handler can be done safely so
it is sufficient to note that it is not recommended.
Also mention in setcontext documentation that the behaviour of
setcontext when restoring a context created by a call to a signal
handler is unspecified.
2014-04-17 Will Newton <will.newton@linaro.org>
* manual/setjmp.texi (System V contexts): Add note that
calling setcontext on a context created by a call to a
signal handler is undefined. Update text to note that
setcontext from a signal handler is possible but not
recommended.
If the user has requested automatic buffer creation, getline may create
it and not free things when an error occurs. That means the user is
always responsible for calling free() regardless of the return value.
The current documentation does not explicitly cover this which leaves it
slightly ambiguous to the reader. So clarify things.

This patch is an updated version of
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-01/msg00198.html> and
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-03/msg00180.html>.
Normal practice for software testsuites is that rather than
terminating immediately when a test fails, they continue running and
report at the end on how many tests passed or failed.
The principle behind the glibc testsuite stopping on failure was
probably that the expected state is no failures and so any failure
indicates a problem such as miscompilation. In practice, while this
is fairly close to true for native testing on x86_64 and x86 (kernel
bugs and race conditions can still cause intermittent failures), it's
less likely to be the case on other platforms, and so people testing
glibc run the testsuite with "make -k" and then examine the logs to
determine whether the failures are what they expect to fail on that
platform, possibly with some automation for the comparison.
This patch switches the glibc testsuite to the normal convention of
not stopping on failure - unless you use stop-on-test-failure=y, in
which case it behaves essentially as it did before (and does not
generate overall test summaries on failure). Instead, the summary
tests.sum may contain tests that FAILed. At the end of the test run,
any FAIL or ERROR lines from tests.sum are printed, and then it exits
with error status if there were any such lines. In addition, build
failures will also cause the test run to stop - this has the
justification that those *do* indicate serious problems that should be
promptly fixed and aren't generally hard to fix (but apart from that,
avoiding the build stopping on those failures seems harder).
Note that unlike the previous patches in this series, this *does*
require people with automation around testing glibc to change their
processes - either to start using tests.sum / xtests.sum to track
failures and compare them with expectations (with or without also
using "make -k" and examining "make" logs to identify build failures),
or else to use stop-on-test-failure=y and ignore the new tests.sum /
xtests.sum mechanism. (If all you check is the exit status from "make
check", no changes are needed unless you want to avoid test runs
continuing after the first failure.)

As recently discussed
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-02/msg00670.html>, it
doesn't seem particularly useful for libm-test-ulps files to contain
huge amounts of data on ulps for individual tests; just the global
maximum observed ulps for each function, together with the
verification of exceptions, errno and special results such as
infinities and NaNs for each test, suffices to verify that a
function's behavior on the given test inputs is within the expected
accuracy. Removing this data reduces source tree churn caused by
updates to these files when libm tests are added, and reduces the
frequency with which testsuite additions actually need libm-test-ulps
changes at all.
Accordingly, this patch removes that data, so that individual tests
get checked against the global bounds for the given function and only
generate an error if those are exceeded. Tested x86_64 (including
verifying that if an ulps value is artificially reduced, the tests do
indeed fail as they should and "make regen-ulps" generates the
expected changes).

The glibc manual uses special annotations to include functions
in the summary chapter. These annotations were missing from the
functions in the threads chapter. This patch adds those special
markers and in turn adds these functions to the summary chapter.
In <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-01/msg00196.html> I
noted it was necessary to add includes of Makeconfig early in various
subdirectory makefiles for the tests-special variable settings added
by that patch to be conditional on configuration information. No-one
commented on the general question there of whether Makeconfig should
always be included immediately after the definition of subdir.
This patch implements that early inclusion of Makeconfig in each
directory (which is a lot easier than consistent placement of includes
of Rules). Includes are added if needed, or moved up if already
present. Subdirectory "all:" targets are removed, since Makeconfig
provides one.
There is potential for further cleanups I haven't done. Rules and
Makerules have code such as
ifneq "$(findstring env,$(origin headers))" ""
headers :=
endif
to override to empty any value of various variables that came from the
environment. I think there is a case for Makeconfig setting all the
subdirectory variables (other than subdir) to empty to ensure no
outside value is going to take effect if a subdirectory fails to
define a variable. (A list of such variables, possibly out of date
and incomplete, is in manual/maint.texi.) Rules and Makerules would
give errors if Makeconfig hadn't already been included, instead of
including it themselves. The special code to override values coming
from the environment would then be obsolete and could be removed.
Tested x86_64, including that installed binaries are identical before
and after the patch.

This patch adds a new "Inter-Process Communication"
chapter to cover the sem*, msg*, and shm* functions.
Initially we document only the sem* function signatures
and their safety notes.
This is a minimal patch to remove _BSD_SOURCE and _SVID_SOURCE from
the documented user API, making them into aliases for _DEFAULT_SOURCE

that all the consequent cleanups will go in followup patches.

This patch updates various miscellaneous files we take from upstream
GNU sources (texinfo.texi, config.guess, config.sub - various others
haven't changed upstream since we last updated them) to their current

This patch adds a feature test macro _DEFAULT_SOURCE to enable the
default set of header declarations.
The intention is: if _DEFAULT_SOURCE is not used there is no change to
the set of __USE_* macros glibc defines; if it's used on its own, and
without compiler options such as -std=c99 that define __STRICT_ANSI__,
again, there is no change; if it's used together with the macros it
approximately (i.e., apart from __USE_POSIX_IMPLICITLY) implies
(-D_BSD_SOURCE -D_SVID_SOURCE -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=200809L), again, there
is no change. Otherwise, it causes the relevant features to be
enabled, even if __STRICT_ANSI__, or another feature test macro, would
cause them to be disabled.
This macro deliberately bundles the POSIX.1-2008 (non-X/Open)
functionality with the BSD/SVID/"misc" functionality, rather than
defining a macro that gives just the latter, as many of the header
cleanups resulting from removing _BSD_SOURCE and _SVID_SOURCE support
are only possible when BSD/SVID/"misc" is always bundled with
POSIX.1-2008.
Tested x86_64.
* include/features.h: Update comment documenting feature test
macros. Mention _DEFAULT_SOURCE in comment.
[_GNU_SOURCE] (_DEFAULT_SOURCE): Undefine and redefine.

[BZ 15846] As discussed in the recent thread on my $EXEC_ORIGIN patch
and in BZ 15846, getauxval() presently has no unambiguous way of
reporting an error condition. It currently returns zero on error, but
this may also be a valid result for some auxv entries. As there is no
clear invalid result for all current and future auxv entries, this patch
sets errno (following a suggestion in the BZ entry).
This version of the patch also adds documentation and tests for the
value-not-found conditions in getauxval().
This is needed for version-3 tz-format files; it supports time

aligned alloc. Document __memalign_hook is also called
for aligned_alloc.
The current documentation suggests using memalign and valloc which
are now considered obsolete, so suggest using posix_memalign instead.

The Secure RPC implementation in glibc uses DES encryption
during authentication of the user. This use of DES means
that anyone using Sun RPC will likely not be compliant
with FIPS 140-2 which forbids the use of DES.
One solution to the compliance issue is to disable AUTH_DES
and AUTH_KERB, both use DES, when in FIPS compliance mode.
This is not a good idea because it disables all of the even
mildly secure methods of authentication allowing only plain
text methods.
Instead we leave AUTH_DES and AUTH_KERB enabled in FIPS
compliance mode and document the compliance issue in the
manual. FIPS allows this, that is to say that if you can't
fix it you must document the non-compliance.
This commit adds documentation to that effect in the
"DES encryption and password handling" section of the
manual.

The pt-chown binary is discussed in the "Running make install" section
without clarification of the needed configure option. Clarify this
and simplfy the discription which is already covered in the "Configuring
and compiling" section.
The helper binary pt_chown tricked into granting access to another
user's pseudo-terminal.
Pre-conditions for the attack:
* Attacker with local user account
* Kernel with FUSE support
* "user_allow_other" in /etc/fuse.conf
* Victim with allocated slave in /dev/pts
Using the setuid installed pt_chown and a weak check on whether a file
descriptor is a tty, an attacker could fake a pty check using FUSE and
trick pt_chown to grant ownership of a pty descriptor that the current
user does not own. It cannot access /dev/pts/ptmx however.
In most modern distributions pt_chown is not needed because devpts
is enabled by default. The fix for this CVE is to disable building
and using pt_chown by default. We still provide a configure option
to enable hte use of pt_chown but distributions do so at their own
risk.

* posix/regexec.c (set_regs): Don't alloca with an unbounded size.
alloca modernization/simplification for regex.
* posix/regex.c: Remove portability cruft for alloca. This no longer
needs to be at the start of the file, and can be moved into
regex_internal.h and simplified.
* posix/regex_internal.h: Include <alloca.h>.
(__libc_use_alloca) [!defined _LIBC]: New macro.
* posix/regexec.c (build_trtable): Remove "#ifdef _LIBC",
since the code now works outside glibc.
2005-09-06 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com>
* include/regex.h: Remove use of _RE_ARGS.
2005-08-25 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
* posix/regexec.c (find_recover_state): Change "err" to "*err".
2005-08-24 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
* posix/regcomp.c (regerror): Pointer args are 'restrict',
as per POSIX.
* posix/regex.h (regerror): Likewise.
* manual/pattern.texi (POSIX Regexp Compilation): Likewise.
Similarly for regcomp and regexec. Also, first 2 args of regexec
and 2nd arg of regerror are const.
* posix/regex.c: Do not include <sys/types.h>, as POSIX no longer
requires this. (The code never needed it.)
2005-08-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
* posix/regexec.c (sift_states_bkref): re_node_set_insert returns
int, not reg_errcode_t.
* posix/regex_internal.c (calc_state_hash): Put 'inline' before type,
since some broken compilers warn about it otherwise.
* posix/regcomp.c (create_initial_state): Remove duplicate decl.
2005-08-20 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
* posix/regex.h (_RE_ARGS): Remove. No longer needed, since we assume
C89 or better. All uses removed.
2005-09-06 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com>
* posix/regex.c: Prevent using C++ compilers.
2005-08-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
* posix/regcomp.c (duplicate_node): Return new index, not an error
code, and let the caller return REG_ESPACE if out of space. This
removes an uninitialied-variable warning with GCC 4.0.1, and also
avoids taking the address of a local variable. All callers
changed.
2005-09-06 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com>
* include/time.h (__strptime_internal): Rename parameter to avoid
bogus compiler warning.
2005-08-19 Jim Meyering <jim@meyering.net>
* posix/regexec.c (proceed_next_node): Redo local variables to
avoid GCC shadowing warnings.
2005-09-06 Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com>
* posix/regex_internal.c (re_acquire_state): Minor code rearrangement.
(re_acquire_state_context): Likewise.
2005-08-19 Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
* posix/regex_internal.c (re_string_realloc_buffers):
(re_node_set_insert, re_node_set_insert_last, re_dfa_add_node):
Rename local variables to avoid GCC shadowing warnings.
2005-07-08 Eric Blake <ebb9@byu.net>
Paul Eggert <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>
* posix/regcomp.c (init_dfa): Store __btowc value in wint_t, not
wchar_t. Remove now-unnecessary cast.
(build_range_exp): Likewise.
EKEYREVOKED, EKEYREJECTED.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/Versions (libc: GLIBC_2.3.4): New errlist.
* sysdeps/gnu/errlist.c: Regenerated
* sysdeps/gnu/errlist-compat.awk: Don't bail if Versions gives a count
higher than ERR_MAX reports. Instead, emit a #define ERR_MAX.
* sysdeps/gnu/Makefile ($(objpfx)errlist-compat.h): New target.
(generated): Add errlist-compat.h.
* sysdeps/gnu/errlist.awk: Make output #include <errlist-compat.h> to
define ERR_MAX and use that for table size.
Update.
2004-07-14 Jakub Jelinek <jakub@redhat.com>
[BZ #266]
* manual/string.texi (l64a): Note that the static buffer is 7 bytes
long. Rewrite example code so that it takes account l64a output
shorter than 6 characters.
Reported by Julian Graham <julian.graham@aya.yale.edu>.
* manual/signal.texi (Interrupted Primitives): Make clear that
TEMP_FAILURE_RETRY evaluates its expression as long int and compares
it to -1 to define "failure".
2004-04-21 Jakub Jelinek <jakub@redhat.com>
* posix/tst-chmod.c (do_test): Fix a typo.
* elf/lateglobal.c (main): Fix error checks.
Patch by Stephen Clarke <stephen.clarke@st.com>.
* manual/ctype.texi (isblank, iswblank): Mark as ISO functions,
mention they have been added in ISO C99.
Reported by Ben Pfaff <blp@cs.stanford.edu>.
2004-03-31 H.J. Lu <hongjiu.lu@intel.com>
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/bits/huge_vall.h: Fix typo.
