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.

Continuing moving macros out of math-tests.h to smaller headers
following typo-proof conventions instead of using #ifndef, this patch
moves the EXCEPTION_TESTS_* macros for individual types out to their
own sysdeps header.
As with ROUNDING_TESTS_*, there is no need to define these macros if
FE_ALL_EXCEPT == 0 and the individual exception macros are undefined;
thus, math-tests-exceptions.h headers are only needed for soft-float
ARM and RISC-V, while the other cases that defined these macros do not
need to do so (and the associated math-tests.h headers are thus
removed without needing replacement by math-tests-exceptions.h
headers).

The NEWS entry for sinf improvements is listed for 2.28, while it was
committed in 2.29, so move it there and mention tanf.
Committed as obvious.
* NEWS: Move optimized sinf entry to 2.29.
Speedup tanf range reduction by using the new sincosf range
reduction algorithm. Overall code quality is improved due to
inlining, so there is a speedup even if no range reduction is
required.

This patch completes the move of ROUNDING_TESTS_* macros to typo-proof

Continuing moving macros out of math-tests.h to smaller headers
following typo-proof conventions instead of using #ifndef, this patch
moves the ROUNDING_TESTS_* macros for individual types out to their
own sysdeps header.
In the soft-float case where FE_TONEAREST is the only rounding mode
macro defined, there is no need to define ROUNDING_TESTS_*; it is only
necessary when rounding modes macros are defined that may not be
supported at runtime. Thus, the ROUNDING_TESTS_* definitions for some
configurations are just removed, not moved to new
math-tests-rounding.h headers; the only architectures needing
math-tests-rounding.h are those where the macros are defined in
bits/fenv.h because of the possibility of a soft-float compilation
using a hard-float glibc with the same ABI (i.e., ARM and RISC-V).
The test-*-vlen*.h headers, by using #undef, do not yet follow
typo-proof conventions (but they no longer implicitly rely on being
included before math-tests.h, and this area can always be cleaned up
further in future).

This patch adds the PF_XDP, AF_XDP and SOL_XDP macros from Linux 4.18 to

This patch adds constants from netinet/tcp.h in Linux 4.18, and an
associated struct tcp_zerocopy_receive, to sysdeps/gnu/netinet/tcp.h.
The new TCP_REPAIR_* constants seemed sufficiently related to those
already present to include them.
Note that this patch does not include additions to struct tcp_info;
there are many other elements in this structure in the Linux kernel
that are not included in the glibc version (which was last extended in
2007, it seems). Such additions to the end of the structure may be OK
with the expected way it is used (size passed explicitly to the kernel
with getsockopt), but in principle any change to the size of a type
provided by glibc is an ABI change for external applications /
libraries using that type in their ABIs, and has the associated risks
of such a change.
Tested for x86_64.

This patch updates struct signalfd_siginfo in sys/signalfd.h with new
members from Linux 4.18 (plus ssi_addr_lsb, added to the kernel in
2.6.37 without being added to sys/signalfd.h at that time). The
__pad2 member name follows the kernel and the existing __pad name.
Tested for x86_64.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sys/signalfd.h (struct
signalfd_siginfo): Add ssi_addr_lsb, ssi_syscall, ssi_call_addr
and ssi_arch members.
This patch adds two new constants from Linux 4.18 to elf.h,
NT_VMCOREDD and AT_MINSIGSTKSZ.

New generic optimization of sinf and cosf introduced by commit
599cf39766 shows improvement
compared to powerpc specific assembly version. Hence removing
the powerpc assembly versions to make use of generic code.
The House of Force is a well-known technique to exploit heap
overflow. In essence, this exploit takes three steps:
1. Overwrite the size of top chunk with very large value (e.g. -1).
2. Request x bytes from top chunk. As the size of top chunk
is corrupted, x can be arbitrarily large and top chunk will
still be offset by x.
3. The next allocation from top chunk will thus be controllable.
If we verify the size of top chunk at step 2, we can stop such attack.
This patch moves little endian specific POWER9 optimization files to
sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/le and creates POWER9 ifunc functions
only for little endian.
This variant of strlen uses vector loads and operations to reduce the
size of the code and also eliminate the non-ascii fallback. This
works very well for falkor because of its two vector units and
efficient vector ops. In the best case it reduces latency of cases in
bench-strlen by 48%, with gains throughout the benchmark.
strlen-walk also sees uniform gains in the 5%-15% range.
Overall the routine appears to work better than the stock one for falkor
regardless of the benchmark, length of string or cache state.
The same cannot be said of a53 and a72 though. a53 performance was
greatly reduced and for a72 it was a bit of a mixed bag, slightly on the
negative side but I reckon it might be fast in some situations.

The internal functions __kernel_sinf and __kernel_cosf are used only by
lgammaf_r. Removing the internal functions and using the generic sinf
and cosf is better overall. Benchmarking on Cortex-A72 shows the generic
sinf and cosf are 1.4x and 2.3x faster in the range |x| < PI/4, and 0.66x
and 1.1x for |x| < PI/2, so it should make lgammaf_r faster on average.

The install.texi documentation of uses of Perl and Python is
substantially out of date.
The description of Perl is "to test the installation" (which I
interpret as referring to test-installation.pl), but it's used for
more tests than that, and to build the manual, and to regenerate one
file in the source tree.
The description of Python is only for pretty-printer tests, but it's
used for other tests / benchmarks as well (and for other internal uses
such as updating Unicode data, for which we already require Python 3,
but I think install.texi only needs to describe uses from the main
glibc Makefiles).
This patch updates the descriptions of what those tools are used for.
The Python information (and information about other tools for testing
pretty printers) was awkwardly in the middle of the general
description of building and testing glibc, rather than with the rest
of information about tools used in glibc build and test; this patch
moves the information about those tools into the main list.
Tested with regeneration of INSTALL as well as "make info" and "make
pdf".
