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 6694 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c
and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this
diagnostic from Savannah:
remote: *** pre-commit check failed ...
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
On alpha, Linux kernel 5.1 added the standard getegid, geteuid and
getppid syscalls (commit ecf7e0a4ad15287). Up to now alpha was using
the corresponding OSF1 syscalls through:
- sysdeps/unix/alpha/getegid.S
- sysdeps/unix/alpha/geteuid.S
- sysdeps/unix/alpha/getppid.S
When building against kernel headers >= 5.1, the glibc now use the new
syscalls through sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list. When it is then
used with an older kernel, the corresponding 3 functions fail.
A quick fix is to move the OSF1 wrappers under the
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha directory so they override the standard
linux ones. A better fix would be to try the new syscalls and fallback
to the old OSF1 in case the new ones fail. This can be implemented in
a later commit.
