This patch fixes bug 16386, ldbl-128ibm logl inaccuracy (with
consequent inaccuracy for lgammal) for arguments where the high double
is subnormal, which showed up while attempting to regenerate ulps for
powerpc-nofpu for 2.19. The problem here is logic failing to allow
for subnormals when calculating the exponent of the argument. Tested
for powerpc-nofpu.
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/e_logl.c (__ieee754_logl): Adjust
numbers with subnormal high part when calculating exponent.
This patch fixes bug 16385, ldbl-128ibm asinhl inaccuracy, which
showed up while attempting to regenerate ulps for powerpc-nofpu for
2.19. The problem here was use of fabs instead of fabsl meaning large
arguments were reduced to the precision of double. Tested for
powerpc-nofpu.
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_asinhl.c (__asinhl): Use fabsl not
fabs.
This patch fixes bug 16384, ldbl-128ibm acoshl inaccuracy, which
showed up while attempting to regenerate ulps for powerpc-nofpu for
2.19. There were two separate problems, use of __log1p instead of
__log1pl and an insufficiently accurate constant value for log 2
(which this patch replaces by use of M_LN2l), each of which could
cause substantial inaccuracy in affected cases.
Tested for powerpc-nofpu.
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/e_acoshl.c (ln2): Initialize with
M_LN2l.
(__ieee754_acoshl): Use __log1pl not __log1p.
nscd incorrectly returns a success even when the netgroup in question
is not found and adds a positive result in the cache. this patch
fixes this behaviour by adding a negative lookup entry to cache and
returning an error when the netgroup is not found.
Currently, when a user looks up a netgroup that does not have any
members, nscd goes into an infinite loop trying to find members in the
group. This is because it does not handle cases when getnetgrent
returns an NSS_STATUS_NOTFOUND (which is what it does on empty group).
Fixed to handle this in the same way as NSS_STATUS_RETURN, similar to
what getgrent does by itself.
The sp check has to be moved up to the start of the func since it now
makes a system call and that'll clobber a lot of registers.

Perform sanity check only if we have_lock. Due to lockless nature of fastbins
we need to be careful derefencing pointers to fastbin entries (chunksize(old)
in this case) in multithreaded environments.
The fix is to add have_lock to the if-condition checks. The rest of the patch
only makes code more readable.

This patch fixes bug 16337, ldbl-128 lgammal spurious overflows for
small negative arguments (the arguments in question are already in the
testsuite). The implementation uses the reflection formula to compute
lgamma of negative x from lgamma of -x, effectively resulting in a
calculation -log(x^2) + log(-x); cancellation isn't problematic in
this case (bugs for problematic cancellation in lgamma are 2542, 2543,
2558), but the x^2 calculation can underflow (in which case there is
spurious logic to return an overflowing value - lgamma can only ever
correctly overflow for large positive arguments, though tgamma can
overflow for small arguments of either sign as well as large positive
arguments). The fix is simply to calculate the result directly with
logl when the argument is a small enough negative number.
Tested mips64.
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/e_lgammal_r.c (__ieee754_lgammal_r):
Calculate results for small negative arguments directly rather
than using reflection formula with special underflow handling.
This patch fixes bug 16356, bad results from x86 / x86_64 expl /
exp10l in directed rounding modes, the most serious of the bugs shown
up by my patch expanding libm test coverage. When I fixed bug 16293,
I thought it was only necessary to set round-to-nearest when using
frndint in expm1 functions, because in other cases the cancellation
error from having the resulting fractional part close to 1 or -1 would
not be significant. However, in expl and exp10l, the way the final
fractional part gets computed (something more complicated than a
simple subtraction, because more precision is needed than you'd get
that way) can result in a value outside the range [-1, 1] when the
argument to frndint was very close to an integer and was rounded the
"wrong" way because of the rounding mode - and the f2xm1 instruction
has undefined results if its argument is outside [-1, 1], so resulting
in the large errors seen. So this patch removes the USE_AS_EXPM1L
conditionals on the round-to-nearest settings, so all of expl, expm1l
and exp10l now get round-to-nearest used for frndint (meaning the
final fractional part can at most be slightly above 0.5 in
magnitude). Associated tests of exp and exp10 are added and testing
of exp10 in directed rounding modes enabled.
Tested x86_64 and x86 and ulps updated accordingly.

Bug 16293 is inaccuracy of x86/x86_64 versions of expm1, near 0 in
directed rounding modes, that arises from frndint rounding the
exponent to 1 or -1 instead of 0, resulting in large cancellation
error. This inaccuracy in turn affects other functions such as sinh
that use expm1. This patch fixes the problem by setting
round-to-nearest mode temporarily around the affected calls to
frndint. I don't think this is needed for other uses of frndint, such
as in exp itself, as only for expm1 is the cancellation error
significant.
Tested x86_64 and x86 and ulps updated accordingly.

This patch adds a feature test macro _DEFAULT_SOURCE to enable the
default set of header declarations.
The intention is: if _DEFAULT_SOURCE is not used there is no change to
the set of __USE_* macros glibc defines; if it's used on its own, and
without compiler options such as -std=c99 that define __STRICT_ANSI__,
again, there is no change; if it's used together with the macros it
approximately (i.e., apart from __USE_POSIX_IMPLICITLY) implies
(-D_BSD_SOURCE -D_SVID_SOURCE -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=200809L), again, there
is no change. Otherwise, it causes the relevant features to be
enabled, even if __STRICT_ANSI__, or another feature test macro, would
cause them to be disabled.
This macro deliberately bundles the POSIX.1-2008 (non-X/Open)
functionality with the BSD/SVID/"misc" functionality, rather than
defining a macro that gives just the latter, as many of the header
cleanups resulting from removing _BSD_SOURCE and _SVID_SOURCE support
are only possible when BSD/SVID/"misc" is always bundled with
POSIX.1-2008.
Tested x86_64.

This patch fixes bug 16338, ldbl-128 logl not handling subnormals
(with consequent inaccuracy for lgammal as well). The fix is simply
to use __frexpl when determining the exponent, as done already in
log2l and log10l. Given the lack of testing of small arguments to any
of the log* functions, appropriate tests are added for all of them.
Tested x86_64 and x86 and ulps updated accordingly, and spot tests
also run for mips64 to confirm the ldbl-128 fix.
Note that while this fixes lgammal inaccuracy for small positive
arguments, I suspect that there will still be problems with spurious
underflows in that case.
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/e_logl.c (__ieee754_logl): Use __frexpl
to determine exponent and adjust argument to have exponent of -1.

A sse42 version of strstr used pcmpistr instruction which is quite
ineffective. A faster way is look for pairs of characters which is uses
sse2, is faster than pcmpistr and for real strings a pairs we look for
are relatively rare.
For linear time complexity we use buy or rent technique which switches
to two-way algorithm when superlinear behaviour is detected.
Joseph pointed out in the bug report (and in an earlier thread) that
systemtap probes cause build time warnings like the following:
../sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/e_atan2.c:602:4: warning: the address of
'p' will always evaluate as 'true' [-Waddress]
due to the fact that we're now passing non-weak variables to
LIBC_PROBE in the libm probes. This happens only on configurations
that do not enable systemtap. The macro definition of LIBC_PROBE in
this case only acts as a sanity checker to ensure that the number
parameters passed to LIBC_PROBE is equal to the argument count
parameter passed before it. This can be done in a much simpler manner
by just adding a macro definition for each number of arguments. I am
assuming here that we don't really want to bother with supporting
LIBC_PROBE with an indeterminate number of arguments and if there is a
need for a probe to have more data than what is currently supported (4
arguments), one could simply add an additional macro here.
AF_INET lookup in hosts file uses _nss_files_gethostbyname2_r, which
is not capable of returning a canonical name if it has found one.
This change adds _nss_files_gethostbyname3_r, which wraps around
_nss_files_gethostbyname2_r and then returns result.h_name as the
canonical name.
The event code is PTRACE_EVENT_SECCOMP, not PTRAVE_EVENT_SECCOMP.
This patch fixes the V->C typo. There are no ABI issues since the
number remains the same for the code. Code using the old wrong
name will need to be updated.
As detailed in PR11157, the use of '__block' is known to interfere
with keywords in some environments, such as the Clang -fblocks extension.
Recently a similar issue was raised concerning the use of '__unused'
and a '__glibc' prefix was proposed to create a glibc implementation
namespace for these sorts of issues [1]. This patches takes that
approach.

Currently for AF_INET lookups from the hosts file, buffer sizes larger
than INT_MAX silently overflow and may result in access beyond bounds
of a buffer. This happens when the number of results in an AF_INET
lookup in /etc/hosts are very large.
There are two aspects to the problem. One problem is that the size
computed from the buffer size is stored into an int, which results in
overflow for large sizes. Additionally, even if this size was
expanded, the function used to read content into the buffer (fgets)
accepts only int sizes. As a result, the fix is to have a function
wrap around fgets that calls it multiple times with int sizes if
necessary.
Resolves#16072 (CVE-2013-4458).
This patch fixes another stack overflow in getaddrinfo when it is
called with AF_INET6. The AF_UNSPEC case was fixed as CVE-2013-1914,
but the AF_INET6 case went undetected back then.
It was noted in 2005 (BZ #832), 2006 (BZ #3266), and 2007 [1] that ldd
fails on shells other than Bash >= 3.0 because of the pipefail option
around try_trace (added on 2004-12-08). EGLIBC was patched in 2008 [2]
(r6912) to make the pipefail check run only on shells that support it,
but RTLD output would still be lost on other shells with certain SELinux
policies.
This patch rewrites try_trace to work on any POSIX-conformant shell in
such a way as to also work with such SELinux policies. It also obviates
one difference between glibc and EGLIBC.

Partially revert commits 2b766585f9 and
de2fd463b1, which were intended to fix BZ#11741
but caused another, likely worse bug, namely that fwrite() and fputs() could,
in an error path, read data beyond the end of the specified buffer, and
potentially even write this data to the file.
Fix BZ#11741 properly by checking the return value from _IO_padn() in
stdio-common/vfprintf.c.
Fixes BZ #15988.
The check had a typo - it checked for PTHREAD_MUTEX_ROBUST_NP instead
of PTHREAD_MUTEX_ROBUST_NORMAL_NP. It has now been replaced by the
already existing convenience macro USE_REQUEUE_PI.
strcoll is implemented using a cache for indices and weights of
collation sequences in the strings so that subsequent passes do not
have to search through collation data again. For very large string
inputs, the cache size computation could overflow. In such a case,
use the fallback function that does not cache indices and weights of
collation sequences.
Fixes CVE-2012-4412.
strcoll currently falls back to alloca if malloc fails, resulting in a
possible stack overflow. This patch implements sequence traversal and
comparison without caching indices and rules.
Fixes CVE-2012-4424.
The pointer guard used for pointer mangling was not initialized for
static applications resulting in the security feature being disabled.
The pointer guard is now correctly initialized to a random value for
static applications. Existing static applications need to be
recompiled to take advantage of the fix.
The test tst-ptrguard1-static and tst-ptrguard1 add regression
coverage to ensure the pointer guards are sufficiently random
and initialized to a default value.

The helper binary pt_chown tricked into granting access to another
user's pseudo-terminal.
Pre-conditions for the attack:
* Attacker with local user account
* Kernel with FUSE support
* "user_allow_other" in /etc/fuse.conf
* Victim with allocated slave in /dev/pts
Using the setuid installed pt_chown and a weak check on whether a file
descriptor is a tty, an attacker could fake a pty check using FUSE and
trick pt_chown to grant ownership of a pty descriptor that the current
user does not own. It cannot access /dev/pts/ptmx however.
In most modern distributions pt_chown is not needed because devpts
is enabled by default. The fix for this CVE is to disable building
and using pt_chown by default. We still provide a configure option
to enable hte use of pt_chown but distributions do so at their own
risk.
The generated header is compiled with `-ffreestanding' to avoid any
circular dependencies against the installed implementation headers.
Such a dependency would require the implementation header to be
installed before the generated header could be built (See bug 15711).
In current practice the generated header dependencies do not include
any of the implementation headers removed by the use of `-ffreestanding'.

Static applications that call pthread_exit on the main
