This is optimization is similar in spirit to the SINGLE_THREAD_P check
in the malloc implementation. Doing this in generic code allows us
to prioritize those cases which are likely to occur in single-threaded
programs (normal and recursive mutexes).

The forwarders were only used internally, so new symbol versions
are needed. All symbols are moved at once because the forwarders
are no-ops if libpthread is not loaded, leading to inconsistencies
in case of a partial migration.
The symbols __pthread_rwlock_rdlock, __pthread_rwlock_unlock,
__pthread_rwlock_wrlock, pthread_rwlock_rdlock,
pthread_rwlock_unlock, pthread_rwlock_wrlock have been moved using
scripts/move-symbol-to-libc.py.
The __ symbol variants are turned into compat symbols, which is why they
do not receive a GLIBC_2.34 version.
The symbol was moved using scripts/move-symbol-to-libc.py.
tss_delete (still in libpthread) uses the __pthread_key_create
alias, so that is now exported under GLIBC_PRIVATE.
This initalization should only happen once for the main thread's TCB.
At present, auditors can achieve this by not linking against
libpthread. If libpthread becomes part of libc, doing this
initialization in libc would happen for every audit namespace,
or too late (if it happens from the main libc only). That's why
moving this code into ld.so seems the right thing to do, right after
the TCB initialization.
For !__ASSUME_SET_ROBUST_LIST ports, this also moves the symbol
__set_robust_list_avail into ld.so, as __nptl_set_robust_list_avail.
It also turned into a proper boolean flag.
Inline the __pthread_initialize_pids function because it seems no
longer useful as a separate function.

TLS_INIT_TP is processor-specific, so it is not a good place to

for all CPUs). Introduce __tls_init_tp as a separate function,
to be called immediately after TLS_INIT_TP. Move the existing
stack list setup code for NPTL to this function.

Calling free directly may end up freeing a pointer allocated by the
dynamic loader using malloc from libc.so in the base namespace using
the allocator from libc.so in a secondary namespace, which results in
crashes.
This commit redirects the free call through GLRO and the dynamic
linker, to reach the correct namespace. It also cleans up the dlerror
handling along the way, so that pthread_setspecific is no longer
needed (which avoids triggering bug 24774).
Commit 9e78f6f6e7 ("Implement
_dl_catch_error, _dl_signal_error in libc.so [BZ #16628]") has the
side effect that distinct namespaces, as created by dlmopen, now have
separate implementations of the rtld exception mechanism. This means
that the call to _dl_catch_error from libdl in a secondary namespace
does not actually install an exception handler because the
thread-local variable catch_hook in the libc.so copy in the secondary
namespace is distinct from that of the base namepace. As a result, a
dlsym/dlopen/... failure in a secondary namespace terminates the process
with a dynamic linker error because it looks to the exception handler
mechanism as if no handler has been installed.
This commit restores GLRO (dl_catch_error) and uses it to set the
handler in the base namespace.

So that text_set_element/data_set_element/bss_set_element defined
variables will be retained by the linker.
Note: 'used' and 'retain' are orthogonal: 'used' makes sure the variable
will not be optimized out; 'retain' prevents section garbage collection
if the linker support SHF_GNU_RETAIN.
GNU ld 2.37 and LLD 13 will support -z start-stop-gc which allow C
identifier name sections to be GCed even if there are live
__start_/__stop_ references.
Without the change, there are some static linking problems, e.g.
_IO_cleanup (libio/genops.c) may be discarded by ld --gc-sections, so
stdout is not flushed on exit.
Note: GCC may warning 'retain' attribute ignored while __has_attribute(retain)

No Bug. This commit updates the large memcpy case (no overlap). The
update is to perform memcpy on either 2 or 4 contiguous pages at
once. This 1) helps to alleviate the affects of false memory aliasing
when destination and source have a close 4k alignment and 2) In most
cases and for most DRAM units is a modestly more efficient access
pattern. These changes are a clear performance improvement for
VEC_SIZE =16/32, though more ambiguous for VEC_SIZE=64. test-memcpy,
test-memccpy, test-mempcpy, test-memmove, and tst-memmove-overflow all

Some registers that can be clobbered by the kernel during a syscall are not
listed on the clobbers list in sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/sysdep.h.
For syscalls using sc:
- XER is zeroed by the kernel on exit
For syscalls using scv:
- XER is zeroed by the kernel on exit
- Different from the sc case, most CR fields can be clobbered (according to
the ELF ABI and the Linux kernel's syscall ABI for powerpc
(linux/Documentation/powerpc/syscall64-abi.rst)
The same should apply to vsyscalls, which effectively execute a function call
but are not currently adding these registers as clobbers either.
These are likely not causing issues today, but they should be added to the
clobbers list just in case things change on the kernel side in the future.
