GCC 13 has added more _FloatN and _FloatNx versions of existing
<math.h> and <complex.h> built-in functions, for use in libstdc++-v3.
This breaks the glibc build because of how those functions are defined
as aliases to functions with the same ABI but different types. Add
appropriate -fno-builtin-* options for compiling relevant files, as
already done for the case of long double functions aliasing double
ones and based on the list of files used there.
I fixed some mistakes in that list of double files that I noticed
while implementing this fix, but there may well be more such
(harmless) cases, in this list or the new one (files that don't
actually exist or don't define the named functions as aliases so don't
need the options). I did try to exclude cases where glibc doesn't
define certain functions for _FloatN or _FloatNx types at all from the
new uses of -fno-builtin-* options. As with the options for double
files (see the commit message for commit
49348beafe, "Fix build with GCC 10 when
long double = double."), it's deliberate that the options are used
even if GCC currently doesn't have a built-in version of a given
functions, so providing some level of future-proofing against more
such built-in functions being added in future.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py for aarch64-linux-gnu
powerpc-linux-gnu powerpc64le-linux-gnu x86_64-linux-gnu (compilers
and glibcs builds) with GCC mainline.
This allows us to define a generic no-op version of PTR_MANGLE and
PTR_DEMANGLE. In the future, we can use PTR_MANGLE and PTR_DEMANGLE
unconditionally in C sources, avoiding an unintended loss of hardening
due to missing include files or unlucky header inclusion ordering.
In i386 and x86_64, we can avoid a <tls.h> dependency in the C
code by using the computed constant from <tcb-offsets.h>. <sysdep.h>
no longer includes these definitions, so there is no cyclic dependency
anymore when computing the <tcb-offsets.h> constants.

PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN indicates whether accesses to internal linkage
variables and hidden visibility variables in a shared object (ld.so)
need dynamic relocations (usually R_*_RELATIVE). PI (position
independent) in the macro name is a misnomer: a code sequence using GOT
is typically position-independent as well, but using dynamic relocations
does not meet the requirement.
Not defining PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN is legacy and we expect that all new
ports will define PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN. Current ports defining
PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN are more than the opposite. Change the configure

This commit adds support for __memcmpeq() as a new ABI for all
targets. In this commit __memcmpeq() is implemented only as an alias
to the corresponding targets memcmp() implementation. __memcmpeq() is
added as a new symbol starting with GLIBC_2.35 and defined in string.h
with comments explaining its behavior. Basic tests that it is callable
and works where added in string/tester.c
As discussed in the proposal "Add new ABI '__memcmpeq()' to libc"
__memcmpeq() is essentially a reserved namespace for bcmp(). The means
is shares the same specifications as memcmp() except the return value
for non-equal byte sequences is any non-zero value. This is less
strict than memcmp()'s return value specification and can be better
optimized when a boolean return is all that is needed.
__memcmpeq() is meant to only be called by compilers if they can prove
that the return value of a memcmp() call is only used for its boolean
value.
All tests in string/tester.c passed. As well build succeeds on
x86_64-linux-gnu target.
The powerpc optimization to provide a fast stacktrace requires some
ad-hoc code to handle Linux signal frames and the change is fragile
once the kernel decides to slight change its execution sequence [1].
The generic implementation work as-is and it should be future proof
since the kernel provides the expected CFI directives in vDSO shared
page.

The 4af6982e4c fix does not fully handle RTLD_BOOTSTRAP usage on
rtld.c due two issues:
1. RTLD_BOOTSTRAP is also used on dl-machine.h on various
architectures and it changes the semantics of various machine
relocation functions.
2. The elf_get_dynamic_info() change was done sideways, previously
to 490e6c62aa get-dynamic-info.h was included by the first
dynamic-link.h include *without* RTLD_BOOTSTRAP being defined.
It means that the code within elf_get_dynamic_info() that uses
RTLD_BOOTSTRAP is in fact unused.
To fix 1. this patch now includes dynamic-link.h only once with
RTLD_BOOTSTRAP defined. The ELF_DYNAMIC_RELOCATE call will now have
the relocation fnctions with the expected semantics for the loader.
And to fix 2. part of 4af6982e4c is reverted (the check argument
elf_get_dynamic_info() is not required) and the RTLD_BOOTSTRAP
pieces are removed.
To reorganize the includes the static TLS definition is moved to
its own header to avoid a circular dependency (it is defined on
dynamic-link.h and dl-machine.h requires it at same time other
dynamic-link.h definition requires dl-machine.h defitions).
Also ELF_MACHINE_NO_REL, ELF_MACHINE_NO_RELA, and ELF_MACHINE_PLT_REL
are moved to its own header. Only ancient ABIs need special values
(arm, i386, and mips), so a generic one is used as default.
The powerpc Elf64_FuncDesc is also moved to its own header, since
csu code required its definition (which would require either include
elf/ folder or add a full path with elf/).

dynamic-link.h is included more than once in some elf/ files (rtld.c,

functions. This harms readability and the nested functions usage
is the biggest obstacle prevents Clang build (Clang doesn't support GCC

The key idea for unnesting is to add extra parameters (struct link_map
*and struct r_scope_elm *[]) to RESOLVE_MAP,
ELF_MACHINE_BEFORE_RTLD_RELOC, ELF_DYNAMIC_RELOCATE, elf_machine_rel[a],
elf_machine_lazy_rel, and elf_machine_runtime_setup. (This is inspired
by Stan Shebs' ppc64/x86-64 implementation in the
google/grte/v5-2.27/master which uses mixed extra parameters and static

Future simplification:
* If mips elf_machine_runtime_setup no longer needs RESOLVE_GOTSYM,
elf_machine_runtime_setup can drop the `scope` parameter.
* If TLSDESC no longer need to be in elf_machine_lazy_rel,
elf_machine_lazy_rel can drop the `scope` parameter.

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

It turns out the startup code in csu/elf-init.c has a perfect pair of
ROP gadgets (see Marco-Gisbert and Ripoll-Ripoll, "return-to-csu: A
New Method to Bypass 64-bit Linux ASLR"). These functions are not
needed in dynamically-linked binaries because DT_INIT/DT_INIT_ARRAY
are already processed by the dynamic linker. However, the dynamic
linker skipped the main program for some reason. For maximum
backwards compatibility, this is not changed, and instead, the main
map is consulted from __libc_start_main if the init function argument
is a NULL pointer.
For statically linked binaries, the old approach based on linker
symbols is still used because there is nothing else available.
A new symbol version __libc_start_main@@GLIBC_2.34 is introduced because
new binaries running on an old libc would not run their ELF

Linux kernel v5.9 added support for system calls using the scv
instruction for POWER9 and later. The new codepath provides better
performance (see below) if compared to using sc. For the
foreseeable future, both sc and scv mechanisms will co-exist, so this
patch enables glibc to do a runtime check and use scv when it is
available.
Before issuing the system call to the kernel, we check hwcap2 in the TCB
for PPC_FEATURE2_SCV to see if scv is supported by the kernel. If not,
we fallback to sc and keep the old behavior.
The kernel implements a different error return convention for scv, so
when returning from a system call we need to handle the return value
differently depending on the instruction we used to enter the kernel.
For syscalls implemented in ASM, entry and exit are implemented by
different macros (PSEUDO and PSEUDO_RET, resp.), which may be used in
sequence (e.g. for templated syscalls) or with other instructions in
between (e.g. clone). To avoid accessing the TCB a second time on
PSEUDO_RET to check which instruction we used, the value read from
hwcap2 is cached on a non-volatile register.
This is not needed when using INTERNAL_SYSCALL macro, since entry and
exit are bundled into the same inline asm directive.
The dynamic loader may issue syscalls before the TCB has been setup
so it always uses sc with no extra checks. For the static case, there
is no compile-time way to determine if we are inside startup code,
so we also check the value of the thread pointer before effectively
accessing the TCB. For such situations in which the availability of
scv cannot be determined, sc is always used.
Support for scv in syscalls implemented in their own ASM file (clone and
vfork) will be added later. For now simply use sc as before.
Average performance over 1M calls for each syscall "type":
- stat: C wrapper calling INTERNAL_SYSCALL
- getpid: templated ASM syscall
- syscall: call to gettid using syscall function
Standard:
stat : 1.573445 us / ~3619 cycles
getpid : 0.164986 us / ~379 cycles
syscall : 0.162743 us / ~374 cycles

getpid : 0.109923 us / ~253 cycles <~ -126 cycles / -33.25%
