cca9684f2d stdio: Clean up __libc_message after unconditional abort
Since commit ec2c1fcefb ("malloc:

__libc_message always terminates the process.  Since commit
a289ea09ea ("Do not print backtraces

a1bdd81664 Refactor internal-signals.h
The main drive is to optimize the internal usage and required size
when sigset_t is embedded in other data structures.  On Linux, the
current supported signal set requires up to 8 bytes (16 on mips),
was lower than the user defined sigset_t (128 bytes).

A new internal type internal_sigset_t is added, along with the
functions to operate on it similar to the ones for sigset_t.  The
internal-signals.h is also refactored to remove unused functions

Besides small stack usage on some functions (posix_spawn, abort)
it lower the struct pthread by about 120 bytes (112 on mips).

1c37b8022e Simplify allocations and fix merge and continue actions [BZ #28931]
Allocations for address tuples is currently a bit confusing because of
the pointer chasing through PAT, making it hard to observe the sequence
in which allocations have been made.  Narrow scope of the pointer
chasing through PAT so that it is only used where necessary.

This also tightens actions behaviour with the hosts database in
getaddrinfo to comply with the manual text.  The "continue" action
discards previous results and the "merge" action results in an immedate
lookup failure.  Consequently, chaining of allocations across modules is
no longer necessary, thus opening up cleanup opportunities.

A test has been added that checks some combinations to ensure that they
work correctly.

23e0e8f5f1 getcwd: Set errno to ERANGE for size == 1 (CVE-2021-3999)
No valid path returned by getcwd would fit into 1 byte, so reject the
size early and return NULL with errno set to ERANGE.  This change is
prompted by CVE-2021-3999, which describes a single byte buffer
underflow and overflow when all of the following conditions are met:

- The buffer size (i.e. the second argument of getcwd) is 1 byte
- The current working directory is too long
- '/' is also mounted on the current working directory

Sequence of events:

- In sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/getcwd.c, the syscall returns ENAMETOOLONG
  because the linux kernel checks for name length before it checks
  buffer size

- The code falls back to the generic getcwd in sysdeps/posix

- In the generic func, the buf[0] is set to '\0' on line 250

- this while loop on line 262 is bypassed:

    while (!(thisdev == rootdev && thisino == rootino))

  since the rootfs (/) is bind mounted onto the directory and the flow
  goes on to line 449, where it puts a '/' in the byte before the
  buffer.

- Finally on line 458, it moves 2 bytes (the underflowed byte and the
  '\0') to the buf[0] and buf[1], resulting in a 1 byte buffer overflow.

- buf is returned on line 469 and errno is not set.

This resolves BZ #28769.

30891f35fa Remove "Contributed by" lines
We stopped adding "Contributed by" or similar lines in sources in 2012
in favour of git logs and keeping the Contributors section of the
glibc manual up to date.  Removing these lines makes the license
header a bit more consistent across files and also removes the
possibility of error in attribution when license blocks or files are
copied across since the contributed-by lines don't actually reflect
reality in those cases.

Move all "Contributed by" and similar lines (Written by, Test by,
etc.) into a new file CONTRIBUTED-BY to retain record of these
contributions.  These contributors are also mentioned in
manual/contrib.texi, so we just maintain this additional record as a
courtesy to the earlier developers.

The following scripts were used to filter a list of files to edit in
place and to clean up the CONTRIBUTED-BY file respectively.  These
were not added to the glibc sources because they're not expected to be
of any use in future given that this is a one time task:

882d6e17bc posix: Add posix_spawn_file_actions_addclosefrom_np
This patch adds a way to close a range of file descriptors on
posix_spawn as a new file action.  The API is similar to the one
provided by Solaris 11 [1], where the file action causes the all open
file descriptors greater than or equal to input on to be closed when
the new process is spawned.

The function posix_spawn_file_actions_addclosefrom_np is safe to be
implemented by iterating over /proc/self/fd, since the Linux spawni.c
helper process does not use CLONE_FILES, so its has own file descriptor
table and any failure (in /proc operation) aborts the process creation
and returns an error to the caller.

I am aware that this file action might be redundant to the current
approach of POSIX in promoting O_CLOEXEC in more interfaces. However
O_CLOEXEC is still not the default and for some specific usages, the
caller needs to close all possible file descriptors to avoid them
leaking.  Some examples are CPython (discussed in BZ#10353) and OpenJDK
jspawnhelper [2] (where OpenJDK spawns a helper process to exactly
closes all file descriptors).  Most likely any environment which calls
functions that might open file descriptor under the hood and aim to use
posix_spawn might face the same requirement.

e5ac7bd679 Add C2X timespec_getres
ISO C2X adds a timespec_getres function alongside the C11
timespec_get, with functionality similar to that of POSIX clock_getres
(including allowing a NULL pointer to be passed to the function).
Implement this function for glibc, similarly to the implementation of

This includes a basic test like that of timespec_get, but no
documentation in the manual, given that TIME_UTC and timespec_get
aren't documented in the manual at all.  The handling of 64-bit time
follows that in timespec_get; people maintaining patch series for
64-bit time will need to update them accordingly (to export
__timespec_getres64, redirect calls in time.h and run the test for
_TIME_BITS=64).

9b456c5da9 nss: fix nss_database_lookup2's alternate handling [BZ #27416]
__nss_database_lookup2's extra arguments were left unused in the
nsswitch reloading patch set; this broke compat (default config
ignored) and shadow files (secondary name ignored) which relies on
these fallbacks.

This patch adds in the previous behavior by correcting the
initialization of the database list to reflect the fallbacks.  This
means that the nss_database_lookup2 interface no longer needs to be
passed the fallback info, so API and callers were adjusted.

Since all callers needed to be edited anyway, the calls were changed
from __nss_database_lookup2 to the faster __nss_database_get.  This
was an intended optimization which was deferred during the initial
lookup changes to avoid touching so many files.

The test case verifies that compat targets work (passwd) and that the
default configuration works (group).  Tested on x86-64.

e9fed2438a linux: Require /dev/shm as the shared memory file system
Previously, glibc would pick an arbitrary tmpfs file system from
/proc/mounts if /dev/shm was not available.  This could lead to
an unsuitable file system being picked for the backing storage for
shm_open, sem_open, and related functions.

This patch introduces a new function, __shm_get_name, which builds
the file name under the appropriate (now hard-coded) directory.  It is
called from the various shm_* and sem_* function.  Unlike the
SHM_GET_NAME macro it replaces, the callers handle the return values
and errno updates.  shm-directory.c is moved directly into the posix
subdirectory because it can be implemented directly using POSIX
functionality.  It resides in libc because it is needed by both
librt and nptl/htl.

In the sem_open implementation, tmpfname is initialized directly
from a string constant.  This happens to remove one alloca call.

It sync with gnulib commit 854fbb81d91f7a0f2b463e7ace2499dee2f380f2.

4dddd7e9cb posix: Sync tempname with gnulib [BZ #26648]
It syncs with gnulib commit b1268f22f443e8e4b9e.  The try_tempname_len
now uses getrandom on each iteration to get entropy and only uses the
clock plus ASLR as source of entropy if getrandom fails.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.

42dda89dcb posix: Fix return value of system if shell can not be executed [BZ #27053]
POSIX states that system returned code for failure to execute the shell
shall be as if the shell had terminated using _exit(127).  This
behaviour was removed with 5fb7fc9635.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.

2b778ceb40 Update copyright dates with scripts/update-copyrights
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
