Locking overhead can be significant in some stdio operations
that are common in single threaded applications.
This patch adds the _IO_FLAGS2_NEED_LOCK flag to indicate if
an _IO_FILE object needs to be locked and some of the stdio
functions just jump to their _unlocked variant when not. The
flag is set on all _IO_FILE objects when the first thread is
created. A new GLIBC_PRIVATE libc symbol, _IO_enable_locks,
was added to do this from libpthread.
The optimization can be applied to more stdio functions,
currently it is only applied to single flag check or single
non-wide-char standard operations. The flag should probably
be never set for files with _IO_USER_LOCK, but that's just a
further optimization, not a correctness requirement.
The optimization is valid in a single thread because stdio
operations are non-as-safe (so lock state is not observable
from a signal handler) and stdio locks are recursive (so lock
state is not observable via deadlock). The optimization is not
valid if a thread may be created while an stdio lock is taken
and thus it should be disabled if any user code may run during
an stdio operation (interposed malloc, printf hooks, etc).
This makes the optimization more complicated for some stdio
operations (e.g. printf), but those are bigger and thus less
important to optimize so this patch does not try to do that.

struct resolv_context objects provide a temporary resolver context
which does not change during a name lookup operation. Only when the
outmost context is created, the stub resolver configuration is
verified to be current (at present, only against previous res_init
calls). Subsequent attempts to obtain the context will reuse the
result of the initial verification operation.
struct resolv_context can also be extended in the future to store
data which needs to be deallocated during thread cancellation.
In math/math.h, __MATH_TG will expand signbit to __builtin_signbit*,
e.g.: __builtin_signbitf128, before GCC 6. However, there has never
been a __builtin_signbitf128 in GCC and the type-generic builtin is
only available since GCC 6. For older GCC, this patch defines
__builtin_signbitf128 to __signbitf128, so that the internal function
is used instead of the non-existent builtin.
This patch also changes the implementation of __signbitf128, because
it was reusing the implementation of __signbitl from ldbl-128, which
calls __builtin_signbitl. Using the long double version of the
builtin is not correct on machines where _Float128 is ABI-distinct
from long double (i.e.: ia64, powerpc64le, x86, x86_84). The new
implementation does not rely on builtins when being built with GCC
versions older than 6.0.
The new code does not currently affect powerpc64le builds, because
only GCC 6.2 fulfills the requirements from configure. It might
affect powerpc64le builds if those requirements are backported to
older versions of the compiler. The new code affects x86_64 builds,
since glibc is supposed to build correctly with older versions of GCC.
Tested for powerpc64le and x86_64.

Add a new tunable (glibc.tune.cpu) to override CPU identification on

GCC 7 changed the definition of max_align_t on i386:
https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=commitdiff;h=9b5c49ef97e63cc63f1ffa13baf771368105ebe2
As a result, glibc malloc no longer returns memory blocks which are as
aligned as max_align_t requires.
This causes malloc/tst-malloc-thread-fail to fail with an error like this
one:
error: allocation function 0, size 144 not aligned to 16
This patch moves the MALLOC_ALIGNMENT definition to <malloc-alignment.h>
and increases the malloc alignment to 16 for i386.

This patch improves the default posix implementation of posix_spawn{p}
and align with Linux one. The main idea is to fix some issues already
fixed in Linux code, and deprecated vfork internal usage (source of
various bug reports). In a short:
- It moves POSIX_SPAWN_USEVFORK usage and sets it a no-op. Since
the process that actually spawn the new process do not share
memory with parent (with vfork), it fixes BZ#14750 for this
implementation.
- It uses a pipe to correctly obtain the return upon failure
of execution (BZ#18433).
- It correctly enable/disable asynchronous cancellation (checked
on ptl/tst-exec5.c).
- It correctly disable/enable signal handling.
Using this version instead of Linux shows only one regression,
posix/tst-spawn3, because of pipe2 usage which increase total
number of file descriptor.
* sysdeps/posix/spawni.c (__spawni_child): New function.

This patch implements a requirement of binutils >= 2.25 (up from 2.22)
to build glibc. Tests for 2.24 or later on x86_64 and s390 are
removed. It was already the case, as indicated by buildbot results,
that 2.24 was too old for building tests for 32-bit x86 (produced
internal linker errors linking elf/tst-gnu2-tls1mod.so). I don't know
if any configure tests for binutils features are obsolete given the
increased version requirement.

This patch fixes various miscellaneous namespace issues in
sys/ucontext.h headers.
Some struct tags are removed where the structs also have *_t typedef
names, while other struct tags without such names are renamed to start
__; the changes are noted in NEWS as they can affect C++ name mangling
(although there seems to be little if any external use of these types,
at least based on checking codesearch.debian.net). For powerpc,
pointers to struct pt_regs (not defined in this header) are changed to
point to struct __ctx(pt_regs), so in the __USE_MISC case those struct
fields continue to point to the existing struct pt_regs type for
maximum compatibility, while when that's a namespace issue they point
to a struct __pt_regs type which is always an incomplete struct.
Tested for affected architectures with build-many-glibcs.py.

This patch provides an optimised implementation of memchr using NEON
instructions to improve its performance, especially with longer search regions.
This gave an improvement in performance against the Thumb2+DSP optimised code,
with more significant gains for larger inputs. The NEON code also wins in cases

byte-by-byte search. This avoids the overhead imposed by filling two quadword
registers from memory.

The testcases elf/tst-tls1-static and elf/tst-tls2-static
are failing on s390 if gcc is configured with --enable-default-pie.
According to binutils, there are only four valid cases for IE -> LE transition:
lg %rx,(0,%ry) -> sllg %rx,%ry,0
lg %rx,(%ry,0) -> sllg %rx,%ry,0
lg %rx,(%ry,%r12) -> sllg %rx,%ry,0
lg %rx,(%r12,%ry) -> sllg %rx,%ry,0
Thus I've adjusted the TLS_IE macro in s390 tls-macros.h files in PIC case
in order to use r12 for the address of global offset table.
The adjusted macro definition is not used if gcc is not configured with
--enable-default-pie.
ChangeLog:
* sysdeps/s390/s390-32/tls-macros.h (TLS_IE): Use r12 for GOT address.
* sysdeps/s390/s390-64/tls-macros.h (TLS_IE): Likewise.
Many callers of __res_maybe_init also call _res_hconf_init.
Additional calls to the latter do not hurt because the function
does its work only once. (/etc/hosts.conf is not reloaded or
even checked for changes.) This means that we can simplify the
code by calling _res_hconf_init directly from __res_vinit.
This patch enables float128 support for ia64, so that all the
configurations where GCC supports _Float128 / __float128 as an
ABI-distinct type now have glibc support as well. bits/floatn.h
declares the support to be available for GCC 4.4 and later, which is
when the libgcc support was added. The removal of
sysdeps/ia64/fpu/k_rem_pio2.c is because the generic k_rem_pio2.c
defines a function required by the float128 code.
Tested (compilation only) with build-many-glibcs.py for ia64 (GCC 6
and GCC 7).
Given how long it is since libm-test-ulps has been updated for ia64, I
think truncating the file and regenerating it from scratch would be a
good idea when doing a regeneration to add float128 ulps. I expect
various ia64 libm issues (at least some already filed in Bugzilla) to
result in test failures even after ulps regeneration, but hopefully
the float128 code will pass tests as it's the same as used on other
architectures.

The ucontext_t type has a tag struct ucontext. As with previous such
issues for siginfo_t and stack_t, this tag is not permitted by POSIX
(is not in a reserved namespace), and so namespace conformance means
breaking C++ name mangling for this type.
In this case, the type does need to have some tag rather than just a
typedef name, because it includes a pointer to itself. This patch
uses struct ucontext_t as the new tag, so the type is mangled as
ucontext_t (the POSIX *_t reservation applies in all namespaces, not
just the namespace of ordinary identifiers). Another reserved name
such as struct __ucontext could of course be used.
Because of other namespace issues, this patch does not by itself fix
bug 21457 or allow any XFAILs to be removed.
Tested for x86_64, and with build-many-glibcs.py.

This patch enables float128 support for x86_64 and x86. All GCC
versions that can build glibc provide the required support, but since
GCC 6 and before don't provide __builtin_nanq / __builtin_nansq, sNaN
tests and some tests of NaN payloads need to be disabled with such
compilers (this does not affect the generated glibc binaries at all,
just the tests). bits/floatn.h declares float128 support to be
available for GCC versions that provide the required libgcc support
(4.3 for x86_64, 4.4 for i386 GNU/Linux, 4.5 for i386 GNU/Hurd);
compilation-only support was present some time before then, but not
really useful without the libgcc functions.
fenv_private.h needed updating to avoid trying to put _Float128 values
in registers. I make no assertion of optimality of the
math_opt_barrier / math_force_eval definitions for this case; they are
simply intended to be sufficient to work correctly.
Tested for x86_64 and x86, with GCC 7 and GCC 6. (Testing for x32 was
compilation tests only with build-many-glibcs.py to verify the ABI
baseline updates. I have not done any testing for Hurd, although the
float128 support is enabled there as for GNU/Linux.)

On aarch64, alpha, arm, hppa, mips, nios2, powerpc, sh, sparc, tile,
and x86_64 the clone syscall jumps to _exit after the child execution
and the function ends the process execution by calling exit_group.
This behavior have a small issue where threads created with
CLONE_THREAD using clone syscall directly will eventually exit the
whole group altogether instead of just the thread created. Also,
s390, microblaze, ia64, i386, and m68k differs by calling exit
syscall directly.
This patch changes all architectures to call the exit syscall
directly, as for s390, microblaze, ia64, i386, and m68k. This do not
have change glibc internal behavior in any sort, since the only
usage of clone implementation in posix_spawn calls _exit directly
in the created child (fork uses a direct call to clone).

Fix
This patch adds ULPs for the float128 type, updates the abilist for libc
and libm, and adds the files bits/floatn.h and float128-abi.h, in order to
enable the new type for powerpc64le.
This patch also adds the implementation of sqrtf128 for powerpc64le, since
it is not implemented in libgcc. The sfp-machine.h header is taken from
libgcc.
Tested for powerpc64le (GCC 6.2 and GCC 7.1), powerpc64 and s390x.

for powerpc64le.

Support for powerpc64le requires POWER8 or newer processors. Builds for
older processors are not tested. Require at least POWER8 to avoid
unintentional builds.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64le/configure.ac: Check for POWER8.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64le/configure: Update.
On powerpc64le, support for float128 will be enabled, which requires some
compiler features to be present. This patch adds a configure test to check
for such features, which are provided for powerpc64le since GCC 6.2.
Tested for powerpc64 and powerpc64le.

the powerpc64le-specific requirement in the manual.

Testing with GCC 7 for 32-bit x86 showed some ulps differences,
presumably from variation in when values with excess precision get
spilled to the stack and so lose that precision. This patch updates
the libm-test-ulps files accordingly.
* sysdeps/i386/fpu/libm-test-ulps: Update.
* sysdeps/i386/i686/fpu/multiarch/libm-test-ulps: Likewise.
Building for x86_64 with float128 support, I get a localplt test
failure from lrintf128 calling feraiseexcept.
The problem is that an inline optimized version of feraiseexcept calls
__feraiseexcept_renamed in cases where it doesn't completely expand
inline, and that in turn is redirected to feraiseexcept for a library
call, so meaning the redirection of feraiseexcept to
__GI_feraiseexcept inside libm is lost for that call.
This patch fixes the problem by moving the redirect to an internal
header in the _LIBC case, with the internal header using
__GI_feraiseexcept where appropriate.
Tested for x86_64 (in conjunction with float128 patches).
* sysdeps/x86/fpu/bits/fenv.h [_LIBC] (__feraiseexcept_renamed):
Do not declare.
* sysdeps/x86/fpu/include/bits/fenv.h [_LIBC &&

needs a saturating subtract because the full register is used.
With this commit, only the lower 24 bits of the register are used,
so a regular subtraction suffices.
The test case change adds coverage for these kinds of bugs.
Similar to the other functions in the strfrom class, strfromf128 calls
__printf_fp in order to convert the floating-point value to characters.
This requires the value of IO_MTSAFE_IO.
Tested for powerpc64le and s390x.
* sysdeps/ieee754/float128/Makefile (CFLAGS-strfromf128.c): Add
$(libio-mtsafe) to get the value of IO_MTSAFE_IO.
Most significant changes are code simplification and use of doubles for
intermediate values. Also, some rearrangement to move early
non-dependent code later, out of the faster paths.
* sysdeps/ieee754/flt-32/e_powf.c: Optimized implementation utilizing
rearranged code and doubles float types.
sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/fpu/multiarch/s_sinf-ppc64.c should fall back to
sysdeps/powerpc/fpu/s_sinf.c not to sysdeps/ieee754/flt-32/s_sinf.c.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/fpu/multiarch/s_sinf-ppc64.c: Change
s_sinf.c from sysdeps/ieee754/flt-32/ to sysdeps/powerpc/fpu/.
Commit cdfbe5037f added sysconf support
for cache geometries on powerpc, but mishandled errno. For valid input
parameters, sysconf() should not set errno.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/sysconf.c: Remove references
to errno, and simplify remaining related code.

This patch adds _Float128 support to the ldbl-96 bits/iscanonical.h,
as needed for x86_64 / x86 / ia64 support of _Float128.
Tested for x86_64 (in conjunction with float128 patches).
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-96/bits/iscanonical.h
[__HAVE_DISTINCT_FLOAT128] (__iscanonicalf128): New macro.
This patch makes math-tests.h, as used to describe support of given
floating-point types for sNaNs, rounding modes and exceptions, handle
distinguishing _Float128 from long double. This is needed for x86_64,
where if building with GCC 6 or earlier there is no __builtin_nansq,
so no way to get a signaling NaN of _Float128 type, so associated
tests cannot be run (although glibc itself works fine, as there is
never any need to create such an sNaN with a built-in function inside
glibc).
Tested for x86_64 (in conjunction with float128 patches).
* sysdeps/generic/math-tests.h: Include <bits/floatn.h>.
(MATH_TESTS_TG): New macro.

As with other long double identifiers, float128_private.h has a
redefinition of SET_RESTORE_ROUNDL. However, that redefinition is
broken, since this is a macro with one argument being defined to take
no arguments. This patch fixes the redefinition. (x86_64 needs the
redefinition because SET_RESTORE_ROUNDL only changes the x87 rounding
mode, whereas _Float128 arithmetic uses the SSE rounding mode instead
on x86_64.)
Tested for x86_64 (in conjunction with float128 patches).
* sysdeps/ieee754/float128/float128_private.h
[SET_RESTORE_ROUNDF128] (SET_RESTORE_ROUNDL): Take an argument and
pass it to SET_RESTORE_ROUNDF128.
float128_private.h redefines ieee754.h identifiers ieee854_long_double
and IEEE854_LONG_DOUBLE_BIAS to map them to identifiers from
ieee754_float128.h.
This causes problems when ieee754.h is included after
float128_private.h and it's a version of ieee754.h that also defines
those identifiers; specifically, sysdeps/ieee754/ieee754.h, which
defines those identifiers for the x86 extended format. This patch
fixes this by ensuring an include of ieee754.h from float128_private.h
before the redefinitions.
Tested for x86_64 (in conjunction with float128 patches).
* sysdeps/ieee754/float128/float128_private.h: Include
<ieee754.h>.
The math_private.h macro min_of_type has broken _Float128 handling:
instead of passing its type argument to the key __EXPR_FLT128 macro,
it passes x, which is not a macro argument but whatever variable
called x happens to be visible in the calling function. If that
variable has the wrong type, the wrong one of long double and
_Float128 can get chosen. In particular, this applies to some
_Complex long double functions (where x happens to have type _Complex
long double, resulting in min_of_type returning a _Float128 value when
it should return a long double value). For some reason, this only
caused test failures for me on x86_64 with GCC 6 but not GCC 7 (I
suspect it triggers known bugs in conversions from x86 long double to
_Float128 that are present in GCC 6's soft-fp).
Tested for x86_64 (in conjunction with float128 patches).
* sysdeps/generic/math_private.h (__EXPR_FLT128): Do not apply
typeof to argument passed to __builtin_types_compatible_p.
(min_of_type): Pass type argument, not x, to __EXPR_FLT128.
Three float128 files still include xlocale.h after it was removed. I
don't know why this didn't cause problems for powerpc64le float128
testing; it did cause problems for my x86_64 float128 testing. This
patch changes the includes to use bits/types/locale_t.h.
Tested for x86_64 (in conjunction with float128 patches).
* sysdeps/ieee754/float128/strtof128_l.c: Include
<bits/types/locale_t.h> instead of <xlocale.h>.
