Remove the slow paths from pow. Like several other double precision math
functions, pow is exactly rounded. This is not required from math functions
and causes major overheads as it requires multiple fallbacks using higher
precision arithmetic if a result is close to 0.5ULP. Ridiculous slowdowns
of up to 100000x have been reported when the highest precision path triggers.
All GLIBC math tests pass on AArch64 and x64 (with ULP of pow set to 1).
The worst case error is ~0.506ULP. A simple test over a few hundred million
values shows pow is 10% faster on average. This fixes BZ #13932.

This patch adds the narrowing add functions from TS 18661-1 to glibc's
libm: fadd, faddl, daddl, f32addf64, f32addf32x, f32xaddf64 for all
configurations; f32addf64x, f32addf128, f64addf64x, f64addf128,
f32xaddf64x, f32xaddf128, f64xaddf128 for configurations with
_Float64x and _Float128; __nldbl_daddl for ldbl-opt. As discussed for
the build infrastructure patch, tgmath.h support is deliberately
deferred, and FP_FAST_* macros are not applicable without optimized
function implementations.
Function implementations are added for all relevant pairs of formats
(including certain cases of a format and itself where more than one
type has that format). The main implementations use round-to-odd, or
a trivial computation in the case where both formats are the same or
where the wider format is IBM long double (in which case we don't
attempt to be correctly rounding). The sysdeps/ieee754/soft-fp
implementations use soft-fp, and are used automatically for
configurations without exceptions and rounding modes by virtue of
existing Implies files. As previously discussed, optimized versions
for particular architectures are possible, but not included.
i386 gets a special version of f32xaddf64 to avoid problems with
double rounding (similar to the existing fdim version), since this
function must round just once without an intermediate rounding to long
double. (No such special version is needed for any other function,
because the nontrivial functions use round-to-odd, which does the
intermediate computation with the rounding mode set to round-to-zero,
and double rounding is OK except in round-to-nearest mode, so is OK
for that intermediate round-to-zero computation.) mul and div will
need slightly different special versions for i386 (using round-to-odd
on long double instead of precision control) because of the
possibility of inexact intermediate results in the subnormal range for
double.
To reduce duplication among the different function implementations,
math-narrow.h gets macros CHECK_NARROW_ADD, NARROW_ADD_ROUND_TO_ODD
and NARROW_ADD_TRIVIAL.
In the trivial cases and for any architecture-specific optimized
implementations, the overhead of the errno setting might be
significant, but I think that's best handled through compiler built-in
functions rather than providing separate no-errno versions in glibc
(and likewise there are no __*_finite entry points for these function
provided, __*_finite effectively being no-errno versions at present in
most cases).
Tested for x86_64 and x86, with both GCC 6 and GCC 7. Tested for

Testing narrowing functions with build-many-glibcs.py showed up a
further testsuite fix needed to enable building such functions for
powerpc64le: tests test-<narrower-type>-float128-<function> (and
likewise for float64x) needed the same special handling for
powerpc64le as test-float128-* and test-float64x-*. This patch adds
that special handling.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py for powerpc64le in conjunction with
the main patch adding narrowing add functions.

When ldconfig reads Elf64 files to determine the ABI, it used the
Elf32 type, so read the wrong location, and stored the wrong ABI
type in the cache, making the cache useless. This patch uses
an Elf64 type for Elf64 objects instead.
Note that pre-patch caches might need to be manually removed and
regenerated to get the correct ABIs stored.

Testing narrowing functions for x86_64 with GCC 6 showed up a further
testsuite fix needed: there is no _Float128 sNaN support before GCC 7
on x86_64 / x86, and the existing tests of SNAN_TESTS only checked it
for the return type, not for the argument type. This patch fixes the
code to check SNAN_TESTS (ARG_FLOAT) as well (in a variable set in
libm-test-driver.c, since libm-test-support.c is compiled only once
for each choice of FLOAT).
Tested for x86_64 and x86 with GCC 6 in conjunction with the main
patch adding narrowing add functions.
* math/libm-test-driver.c (snan_tests_arg): New variable.
* math/libm-test-support.h (snan_tests_arg): New declaration.
* math/libm-test-support.c (enable_test): Check snan_tests_arg.
This patch continues preparations for adding TS 18661-1 narrowing libm
functions by adding the required testsuite infrastructure to test such
functions through the libm-test infrastructure.
That infrastructure is based around testing for a single type, FLOAT.
For the narrowing functions, FLOAT, the "main" type for testing, is
the function return type; the argument type is ARG_FLOAT. This is
consistent with how the code built once for each type,
libm-test-support.c, depends on FLOAT for such things as calculating
ulps errors in results but can already handle different argument types
(pointers, integers, long double for nexttoward).
Makefile machinery is added to handle building tests for all pairs of
types for which there are narrowing functions (as with non-narrowing
functions, aliases are tested just the same as the functions they
alias). gen-auto-libm-tests gains a --narrow option for building
outputs for narrowing functions (so narrowing sqrt and fma will share
the same inputs as non-narrowing, but gen-auto-libm-tests will be run
with and without that option to generate different output files). In
the narrowing case, the auto-libm-test-out-narrow-* files include
annotations for each test about what properties ARG_FLOAT must have to
be able to represent all the inputs for that test; those annotations
result in calls to the TEST_COND_arg_fmt macro.
gen-libm-test.pl has some minor updates to handle narrowing tests (for
example, arguments in such tests must be surrounded by ARG_LIT calls
instead of LIT calls). Various new macros are added to the C test
support code (for example, sNaN initializers need to be properly
typed, so arg_snan_value is added; other such arg_* macros are added
as it seems cleanest to do so, though some are not strictly required).
Special-casing of the ibm128 format to allow for its limitations is
adjusted to handle it as the argument format as well as as the result
format; thus, the tests of the new functions allow nonzero ulps only
in the case where ibm128 is the argument format, as otherwise the
functions correspond to fully-defined IEEE operations. The ulps in
question appear as e.g. 'Function: "add_ldouble"' in libm-test-ulps
(with 1ulp errors then listed for double and float for that function
in powerpc); no support is added to generate corresponding faddl /
daddl ulps listings in the ulps table in the manual.
For the previous patch, I noted the need to avoid spurious macro
expansions of identifiers such as "add". A test test-narrow-macros.c
is added to verify such macro expansions are successfully avoided, and
there is also a -mlong-double-64 version of that test for ldbl-opt.
This test is set up to cover the full set of relevant identifiers from
the start rather than adding functions one at a time as each function
group is added.
Tested for x86_64 (this patch in isolation, as well as testing for
various configurations in conjunction with the actual addition of
"add" functions).

TS 18661-1 defines libm functions that carry out an operation (+ - * /
sqrt fma) on their arguments and return a result rounded to a
(usually) narrower type, as if the original result were computed to
infinite precision and then rounded directly to the result type
without any intermediate rounding to the argument type. For example,
fadd, faddl and daddl for addition. These are the last remaining TS
18661-1 functions left to be added to glibc. TS 18661-3 extends this
to corresponding functions for _FloatN and _FloatNx types.
As functions parametrized by two rather than one varying
floating-point types, these functions require infrastructure in glibc
that was not required for previous libm functions. This patch
provides such infrastructure - excluding test support, and actual
function implementations, which will be in subsequent patches.
Declaring the functions uses a header bits/mathcalls-narrow.h, which
is included many times, for each relevant pair of types. This will
end up containing macro calls of the form
__MATHCALL_NARROW (__MATHCALL_NAME (add), __MATHCALL_REDIR_NAME (add), 2);
for each family of narrowing functions. (The structure of this macro
call, with the calls to __MATHCALL_NAME and __MATHCALL_REDIR_NAME
there rather than in the definition of __MATHCALL_NARROW, arises from
the names such as "add" *not* themselves being reserved identifiers -
meaning it's necessary to avoid any indirection that would result in a
user-defined "add" macro being expanded.) Whereas for existing
functions declaring long double functions is disabled if _LIBC in the
case where they alias double functions, to facilitate defining the
long double functions as aliases of the double ones, there is no such
logic for the narrowing functions in this patch. Rather, the files
defining such functions are expected to use #define to hide the
original declarations of the alias names, to avoid errors about
defining aliases with incompatible types.
math/Makefile support is added for building the functions (listed in
libm-narrow-fns, currently empty) for all relevant pairs of types. An
internal header math-narrow.h is added for macros shared between
multiple function implementations - currently a ROUND_TO_ODD macro to
facilitate writing functions using the round-to-odd implementation
approach, and alias macros to create all the required function
aliases. libc_feholdexcept_setroundf128 and libc_feupdateenv_testf128
are added for use when required (only for x86_64). float128_private.h
support is added for ldbl-128 narrowing functions to be used for
_Float128.
Certain things are specifically omitted from this patch and the
immediate followups. tgmath.h support is deferred; there remain
unresolved questions about how the type-generic macros for these
functions are supposed to work, especially in the case of arguments of
integer type. The math.h / bits/mathcalls-narrow.h logic, and the
logic for determining what functions / aliases to define, will need
some adjustments to support the sqrt and fma functions, where
e.g. f32xsqrtf64 can just be an alias for sqrt rather than a separate
function. TS 18661-1 defines FP_FAST_* macros but no support is
included for defining them (they won't in general be true without
architecture-specific optimized function versions).
For each of the function groups (add sub mul div sqrt fma) there are
always six functions present (e.g. fadd, faddl, daddl, f32addf64,
f32addf32x, f32xaddf64). When _Float64x and _Float128 are supported,
there are seven more (e.g. f32addf64x, f32addf128, f64addf64x,
f64addf128, f32xaddf64x, f32xaddf128, f64xaddf128). In addition, in
the ldbl-opt case there are function names such as __nldbl_daddl (an
alias for f32xaddf64, which is not a reserved name in TS 18661-1, only
in TS 18661-3), for calls to daddl to be mapped to in the
-mlong-double-64 case. (Calls to faddl just get mapped to fadd, and
for sqrt and fma there won't be __nldbl_* functions because dsqrtl and
dfmal can just be mapped to sqrt and fma with -mlong-double-64.)
While there are six or thirteen functions present in each group (plus
__nldbl_* names only as an ABI, not an API), not all are distinct;
they fall in various groups of aliases. There are two distinct
versions built if long double has the same format as double; four if
they have distinct formats but there is no _Float64x or _Float128
support; five if long double has binary128 format; seven when
_Float128 is distinct from long double.
Architecture-specific optimized versions are possible, but not
included in my patches. For example, IA64 generally supports
narrowing the result of most floating-point instructions; Power ISA
2.07 (POWER8) supports double values as arguments to float
instructions, with the results narrowed as expected; Power ISA 3
(POWER9) supports round-to-odd for float128 instructions, so meaning
that approach can be used without needing to set and restore the
rounding mode and test "inexact". I intend to leave any such
optimized versions to the architecture maintainers. Generally in such
cases it would also make sense for calls to these functions to be
expanded inline (given -fno-math-errno); I put a suggestion for TS
18661-1 built-in functions at <https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/SummerOfCode>.

various configurations in conjunction with further patches).

As noted in bug 17979 (and as I noted earlier in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2012-02/msg00647.html>), uchar.h
has gratuitously complicated code to determine the types for char16_t
and char32_t, and to reject including that header for pre-C11
compilers not defining __CHAR16_TYPE__ and __CHAR32_TYPE__. Since
those types are always required to match uint_least16_t and
uint_least32_t, which glibc knows how to define without reference to
such predefined macros, it's safe just to define those types the same
as the *least* types are defined in stdint.h, so allowing the header
to work with (for example) GCC 4.3.
This patch implements that. bits/types.h is made to define
__int_leastN_t and __uint_leastN_t so the logic for those types can
stay in a single place, and stdint.h is made to use those __*_t to
define the public *_t types. uchar.h is then made to use
__uint_least16_t and __uint_least32_t to define char16_t and char32_t,
so simplifying the logic there. A new test is added that verifies the
types chosen for char16_t and char32_t do indeed match the types the
compiler uses for u"" and U"" string literals.
Tested for x86_64. (I have not tested with any of the older compilers
for which this would actually make a difference to whether you can
include uchar.h.)

Nearly everything in _G_config.h is either junk or more appropriately
defined elsewhere:
* _G_fpos_t, _G_fpos64_t, and _G_BUFSIZ are already completely unused.
* All remaining uses of _G_va_list have been changed to __gnuc_va_list.
* The definition of _G_HAVE_ST_BLKSIZE/_IO_HAVE_ST_BLKSIZE has
been inlined into its sole use.
* The complete definition of _G_iconv_t has been moved to libio.h and
renamed _IO_iconv_t (all actual users used that name).
* _G_IO_IO_FILE_VERSION is vestigial; some code cares whether
_IO_stdin_used exists, but nothing looks at its value. I've
preserved the value as a hardwired constant in csu/init.c.
This means csu/init.c no longer needs to include anything.
* Many of the headers included by _G_config.h were already being
included directly by either either libio.h or stdio.h; the
remaining ones were moved to libio.h.
* _G_HAVE_MREMAP is still relevant, because mremap genuinely is a
Linux extension; it's not in POSIX and as far as I can tell it's
not available on the Hurd either. I also preserved _G_HAVE_MMAP,
since it's conceivable someone would want to port glibc to a
MMU-less, mmap-less environment in the future. Both are now always
defined to 1/0 as is the current convention, instead of the older
1/undef convention. These are the only symbols still defined in
_G_config.h.
* The actual inclusion of _G_config.h moves from libio.h to libioP.h,
as this is where a potential override of _G_HAVE_MMAP happens.
* The #ifdef logic in libioP.h controlling _IO_JUMPS_OFFSET has been
simplified.
After this patch, the only surviving _G_ symbols are the struct tag
names _G_fpos_t and _G_fpos64_t, which are preserved for the sake of
C++ mangled names in applications, and _G_HAVE_MMAP and _G_HAVE_MREMAP,
which do not seem worth renaming.
Installed stripped libraries are unchanged by this patch.

_G_HAVE_MREMAP. Add commentary explaining those two symbols.

change as above.

Don't define _IO_HAVE_ST_BLKSIZE.

shlib-compat.h up with rest of includes. Simplify conditionals
controlling definition of _IO_JUMPS_OFFSET.
* csu/init.c: Remove always-true #if around entire file.
Don't include stdio.h. Set _IO_stdin_used to hardwired
constant 0x20001, and update commentary.

instead of #if _IO_HAVE_ST_BLKSIZE.

We can't go very far with libio cleanups as long as we still have
_IO_MTSAFE_IO, and I am not tackling that in this patch series,
but we can at least make the maze of stdio-related headers a
little less complicated.
In this patch, libio.h moves back out of bits/ into the top level of
the libio subdirectory, and is merged with libio/bits/libio-ldbl.h
(which also used to be installed) and include/libio.h. Since almost
no files include libio.h directly, this is quite straightforward.
libio.h is now always used with _LIBC defined, so all of the _LIBC ||
_GLIBCPP_USE_WCHAR_T conditionals are unnecessary. Similarly, the
ifdef nest surrounding the definition of _IO_fwide_maybe_incompatible
can collapse down to a single SHLIB_COMPAT check. I also took the
opportunity to add some checks for configuration botches to libio.h.
Installed stripped libraries are unchanged by this patch.
* libio/bits/libio.h: Move back to libio/libio.h and adjust
multiple-include guard to match.

redundant to other preprocessor conditionals in the same nest.

Error out if _LIBC is not defined, or if _ISOMAC is defined,
or if _IO_MTSAFE_IO is defined but _IO_lock_t_defined is not
defined after including stdio.h.
Use __BEGIN_DECLS/__END_DECLS.
* libio/bits/libio-ldbl.h, include/bits/libio.h: Delete file.
* include/stdio.h, libio/iolibio.h, libio/libioP.h: Include
libio.h as <libio/libio.h> rather than as <bits/libio.h>.
We shipped 2.27 with libio.h and _G_config.h still installed but
issuing warnings when used. Let's stop installing them early in 2.28
so that we have plenty of time to think of another plan if there are
problems.
The public stdio.h had a genuine dependency on libio.h for the
complete definitions of FILE and cookie_io_functions_t, and a genuine
dependency on _G_config.h for the complete definitions of fpos_t and
fpos64_t; these are moved to single-type headers.
bits/types/struct_FILE.h also provides a handful of accessor and
bitflags macros so that code is not duplicated between bits/stdio.h
and libio.h. All the other _IO_ and _G_ names used by the public
stdio.h can be replaced with either public names or __-names.
In order to minimize the risk of breaking our own compatibility code,
bits/types/struct_FILE.h preserves the _IO_USE_OLD_IO_FILE mechanism
exactly as it was in libio.h, but you have to define _LIBC to use it,
or it'll error out. Similarly, _IO_lock_t_defined is preserved
exactly, but will error out if used without defining _LIBC.
Internally, include/stdio.h continues to include libio.h, and libio.h
scrupulously provides every _IO_* and _G_* name that it always did,
perhaps now defined in terms of the public names. This is how this
patch avoids touching dozens of files throughout glibc and becoming
entangled with the _IO_MTSAFE_IO mess. The remaining patches in this
series eliminate most of the _G_ names.
Tested on x86_64-linux; in addition to the test suite, I installed the
library in a sysroot and verified that a simple program that uses
stdio.h could be compiled against the installed library, and I also
verified that installed stripped libraries are unchanged.

Building with -Os produces linknamespace and localplt failures for,
among other functions, gnu_dev_major, gnu_dev_minor and
gnu_dev_makedev.
The issue is that those functions are not inlined when building with
-Os. While one could force them to be inlined in that case, it seems
more natural to fix this issue similarly to other namespace issues.
Thus, this patch makes gnu_dev_* into weak aliases for hidden symbols
__gnu_dev_*; __gnu_dev_* are then defined as inlines in the internal
include/sys/sysmacros.h, and uses of gnu_dev_* (often via the macros
major, minor and makedev) for which there are namespace issues are
changed to use __gnu_dev_*; where there are no namespace issues, use
of libc_hidden_proto serves to avoid unnecessary local PLT entry use.
Tested for x86_64, (a) without -Os, to verify the testsuite continues
to pass without problems and that the functions called under their new
names continue to be inlined as expected in that case; (b) with -Os,
to verify that the linknamespace and localplt failures in question go
away (but because of other such failures present, neither of the
relevant bugs can yet be closed).

The findidx functions used in implementing strcoll / wcscoll already
use DIAG_IGNORE_Os_NEEDS_COMMENT for spurious -Wmaybe-uninitialized
warnings that appear with -Os. In building with GCC 7 for x86_64 with
-Os, I find there are additional such warnings, for the same structure
elements, which are spurious for the same reasons given in the
existing comments (and this was also reported for MIPS with GCC 5 in
bug 21313). This patch adds corresponding uses of DIAG_* in the
places that get the additional warnings.
Tested for x86_64 with -Os that this eliminates those warnings and so
allows the build to progress further.

Remove the slow paths from log. Like several other double precision math
functions, log is exactly rounded. This is not required from math functions
and causes major overheads as it requires multiple fallbacks using higher
precision arithmetic if a result is close to 0.5ULP. Ridiculous slowdowns
of up to 100000x have been reported when the highest precision path triggers.
Interestingly removing the slow paths makes hardly any difference in practice:
the worst case error is still ~0.502ULP, and exp(log(x)) shows identical results
before/after on many millions of random cases. All GLIBC math tests pass on
AArch64 and x64 with no change in ULP error. A simple test over a few hundred

We have a general principle of preferring optimizations for library
facilities to use compiler built-in functions rather than being
located in library headers, where the compiler can reasonably optimize
code without needing to know glibc implementation details.
This patch applies this principle to bits/byteswap.h, eliminating all
the architecture-specific variants and bits/byteswap-16.h. The
__bswap_16, __bswap_32 and __bswap_64 interfaces all become inline
functions, never macros, using the GCC built-in functions where
available and otherwise a single architecture-independent definition
using shifts and masking (which compilers may well be able to detect
and optimize; GCC has detection of various byte-swapping idioms).
The __bswap_constant_32 macro needs to stay around because of uses in
static initializers within glibc and its tests, and so for consistency
all __bswap_constant_* are kept rather than just being inlined into
the old-GCC-or-non-GCC parts of the __bswap_* inline function
definitions.
Various open bugs are addressed by this cleanup, with caveats about
exactly what is covered by those bugs and when the bugs applied at
all.
Bug 14508 reports -Wformat warnings building glibc because __bswap_*
sometimes returned the wrong types. Obviously we already don't have
such warnings any more or the build would be failing, given -Werror,
and I suspect that bug was originally for wrong types for x86_64, as
fixed by commit d394eb742a (glibc 2.17).
The only case I saw removed by this patch where the types would still
have been wrong was the non-__GNUC__ case of __bswap_64 in the s390
header (using unsigned long long int, but uint64_t would be unsigned
long int for 64-bit). In any case, the single header consistently
uses __uintN_t types after this patch, thereby eliminating all such
bugs. The existing string/test-endian-types.c test already suffices
to verify that the types are correct with the compiler used to build
glibc and its tests.
Bug 15512 reports an error from __bswap_constant_16 with -Werror
-Wsign-conversion. I am unable to reproduce this with any GCC version
supporting -Wsign-conversion - all seem to be able to avoid warning
for ((x) >> 8) & 0xffu, where x is uint16_t, which while it formally
does involve an implicit conversion from int to unsigned int, is also
a case where it should be easy for the compiler to see that the value
converted is never negative. But in this patch __bswap_constant_16 is
changed to use signed 0xff so that no such implicit conversion occurs
at all, and a test with -Werror -Wsign-conversion is added.
Bug 17082 objects to the use of ({}) statement expressions in these
macros preventing use at file scope (in C, that's in sizeof etc.; in
C++, more generally in static initializers). The particular case of
these interfaces is fixed by this patch as it changes them to inline
functions, eliminating all uses of ({}) in bits/byteswap.h, and a
corresponding testcase is added. The bug tries to raise a more
general policy question about use of ({}) in macros in installed
headers, referring to "many other libc functions" (unspecified which
functions are being considered).
Since such policy questions belong on libc-alpha, and since there
*are* macros in installed headers which can't really avoid using ({})
(where they are type-generic, so can't use an inline function, but
need a temporary variable, and a few where the interface involves
returning memory from alloca so can't use an inline function either),
I propose to consider that bug fixed with this change. That is
without prejudice to any other new bugs anyone wishes to file *for
precisely defined sets of macros* requesting moving away from ({})
*where it is clearly possible for those interfaces*. Where ({}) can
be avoided, typically by use of an inline function, I think that's a
good idea - that inline functions are typically to be preferred to
({}) for header interfaces where such optimizations are useful but the
interface is suited to being defined using an inline function.
Bug 20530 requests use of __builtin_bswap16 when available (GCC 4.8
and later), which this patch implements.
Tested for x86_64, and with build-many-glibcs.py. Also did an x86_64
test with the __GNUC_PREREQ conditionals changed to "#if 0" to verify
the old-GCC/non-GCC case in the headers. (There are already existing
tests for correctness of results of these interfaces.)

Bug 17721 reports that the non-__GNUC__ definitions of __inline and
__restrict are suboptimal, in that they are defined to empty when they
could be defined to inline and restrict for appropriate language
versions. This patch makes those fixes.
Tested for x86_64 (however, I have not done any testing with an actual
non-__GNUC__ compiler and it's likely such compilers may have other
problems with glibc headers).

Bug 19667 reports unchecked malloc calls in the test
string/testcopy.c. This patch makes that test use xmalloc and the
support/test-driver.c test framework.
Tested for x86_64.
[BZ #19667]

<malloc.h>. Use <support/test-driver.c>.
(main): Rename to do_test. Make static. Use xmalloc instead of
malloc.
Bug 13575 reports that SSIZE_MAX is wrongly defined as LONG_MAX on
32-bit systems where ssize_t is defined as int (which is most 32-bit
systems supported by glibc).
This patch fixes the definition, using a conditional on
__WORDSIZE32_SIZE_ULONG to determine the appropriate type in the
32-bit case. Formally ssize_t need not be the signed type
corresponding to size_t, but as it is for all current glibc
configurations, there is no need for a new macro different from the
one used for defining SIZE_MAX. A testcase is added for both the type
and the value of SSIZE_MAX.
There is a relevant peculiarity in
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/s390/bits/typesizes.h:
/* Compatibility with g++ 2.95.x. */
/* size_t is unsigned long int on s390 -m31. */
This has the effect that for GCC 2 for s390, ssize_t does not match
__WORDSIZE32_SIZE_ULONG. I don't think such a conditional on the GCC
version makes sense - to have a well-defined ABI, the choices of
standard types should not depend on the GCC version. It's also the
case that upstream GCC 2.95 did not support s390, and glibc headers
don't in general try to support past development GCC versions - only
actual releases and current mainline development. But whether or not
that GCC 2 case should be removed (with or without a NEWS entry for
such a change), this patch does not result in any changes for s390;
the value is always still LONG_MAX in the s390 case because
__WORDSIZE32_SIZE_ULONG is always defined for 32-bit s390. I don't
think any such oddity in code only active for unofficial or unreleased
old compiler versions should block closing the present bug as fixed
once this patch is in.
Tested for x86_64 and x86, and with build-many-glibcs.py.

* posix/bits/posix1_lim.h: Include <bits/wordsize.h>.

Bug 19668 reports an unchecked malloc call in the test
sysdeps/powerpc/fpu/tst-setcontext-fpscr.c. This patch makes that
test use xmalloc. It does not otherwise move this test to the
support/ infrastructure or support/test-driver.c; the test has various
uses of exit and _exit on error cases, and uses atexit, and while I
think those things would all still work in the context of
test-driver.c, it's not an immediately obvious conversion the way it
would be for many tests that don't use test-driver.c.
Tested for powerpc.
[BZ #19668]
* sysdeps/powerpc/fpu/tst-setcontext-fpscr.c: Include
<support/support.h>. Do not include <malloc.h>.
(query_auxv): Use xmalloc instead of malloc.
Bug 14553 reports that sys/types.h defines loff_t unconditionally,
despite it not being part of any supported standard. This is
permitted by the POSIX *_t reservation, but as a
quality-of-implementation issue it's still best not to define it
except for __USE_MISC. This patch conditions the definition
accordingly, updating a macro in sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sys/quota.h
to use __loff_t so it still works even if __USE_MISC is not defined.
codesearch.debian.net suggests there are quite a lot of loff_t uses
outside glibc, but it might well make sense to change all (few) uses
of loff_t or __loff_t inside glibc to use off64_t or __off64_t
instead, leaving only the definitions, treating this name as
obsolescent.
Tested for x86_64.
[BZ #14553]
* posix/sys/types.h (loff_t): Only define for [__USE_MISC].
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sys/quota.h (dqoff): Use __loff_t
instead of loff_t.
The getc and putc macros in the public stdio.h expand to call _IO_getc
and _IO_putc respectively. As _IO_getc, fgetc, and getc are all aliases
for the same function, and _IO_putc, fputc, and putc are also all aliases
for the same function, the macros are pointless. The C standard does
not require getc and putc to be macros, so let's just not have macros.
All four symbols are exported from libc.so at the same, ancient symbol
version, so there should be no risks for binary compatibility. Similarly,
the getchar and putchar inlines in bits/stdio.h forward to getc and putc
instead of their _IO_ aliases.
As a change from longstanding historical practice, this does seem
like it might break _something_, so there is a note in NEWS, which
is also a convenient place to advise people that if they thought getc
and putc had reduced per-character overhead they should consider using
getc_unlocked and putc_unlocked instead. (These are also not macros,
but when optimizing, they are inlines.)
* libio/stdio.h: Don't define getc or putc as macros.
* libio/bits/stdio.h (getchar, putchar): Use getc and putc,
not _IO_getc and _IO_putc.
Two files in stdio-common were unnecessarily redefining some standard

This patch adds the IPV6_FREEBIND macro from Linux 4.15 to

Linux 4.15 adds NT_S390_RI_CB to linux/elf.h (and NT_ARM_SVE, which we
already have in glibc). This shows up that various other ELF note
values from linux/elf.h are missing from glibc's elf.h.
This patch adds the missing values that are relevant to glibc
architectures. As elf.h is a general description of the ELF format,
not necessarily limited to glibc configurations, there's an argument
for having the remaining NT_* values that Linux uses for non-glibc
architectures in glibc's elf.h as well, but this patch does not add
them.
Adding the NT_PRFPREG name is bug 14890. That bug also requests
making the NT_FPREGSET name obsolete. Given that elf.h is not just
for Linux but can describe ELF for other operating systems, I don't
think that a change of name in the Linux kernel is sufficient
justification for declaring the other name obsolete; there can be
multiple names for the same note value, even with incompatible
semantics, if those reflect variants of the ELF format in actual use.
For example, FreeBSD appears still to have the name NT_FPREGSET
<https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/blob/master/sys/sys/elf_common.h>
(note: I haven't checked whether the FreeBSD kernel actually generates
such notes or whether this is actually an other-OS definition present
in FreeBSD's header).

This patch adds the MAP_SYNC macro from Linux 4.15 to various
bits/mman.h headers. Note that this is *not* added to all
architectures: in Linux 4.15, this macro is only in
asm-generic/mman.h, and only some architectures' asm/mman.h include
the asm-generic file - the architectures not using the asm-generic
file will need their own values of MAP_SYNC allocated to support this
functionality (some of them also already have conflicting mmap flags
so the value there will have to be different from the generic
0x80000). Specifically, for glibc architectures, alpha hppa mips
powerpc sparc tile lack allocations of values for MAP_SYNC.
