On ARM, where profil_counter is not static, it is brought in by
references to various standard functions, as noted in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-11/msg00890.html>, although
it is not a standard function itself. I don't know if this also
causes test failures on SPARC, although I see no reason for it not to
do so.
This patch fixes this namespace issue. profil_counter is renamed to
__profil_counter and made a weak alias on ARM and SPARC. Because of
the uses in profil.c / sprofil.c it seems simplest to make the rename
globally, including on the other architectures for which
profil_counter was static and so the change is of no substance. The
variant names profil_counter_* used in sprofil.c are also renamed to
start with __ so that undesired function names do not get exported in
static libc.
As I noted in bug 17726, profil_counter should probably be a compat
symbol on ARM and SPARC, so it wouldn't exist at all in static libc
even as a weak alias. Since defining a compat symbol still requires
an internal name as a target of an alias, this patch still seems
reasonable as an intermediate step towards that goal: it wouldn't be
possible for the function simply to be static profil_counter on ARM
and SPARC with profil_counter also being the exported compat symbol
name, so profil.c / sprofil.c would still need to be prepared to call
the function under another name (here, __profil_counter).
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that stripped installed shared
libraries are unchanged by the patch) and ARM (ABI and linknamespace
tests - this patch reduces the number of linknamespace failures I see
on ARM from 227 to 5, the residue being math.h failures for fe*
functions and for j0l/j1n/jnl/y0l/y1l/ynl aliases).

Parts of the resolver brought in by pthreads (at least) use inet_*
functions that aren't in the 1995/6 edition of POSIX that introduced
pthreads (or in one case, use __inet_aton which is then defined in the
same file as non-weak inet_addr). This patch fixes this by making the
affected functions into weak alias for __inet_* and using those names
in the problematic resolver code.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that disassembly of installed shared
libraries is unchanged by the patch).

On x86_64, memrchr (not a standard function) is defined as a strong
symbol, instead of a weak alias of __memrchr as on other
architectures. This results in linknamespace test failures from the
use of __memrchr from dirname. (Not a conformance issue because of
the mem* reservation, but contrary to glibc conventions.) This patch
makes x86_64 follow other architectures by defining memrchr as a weak
alias.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that disassembly of installed shared
libraries is unchanged by the patch).

Resolver code, brought in by pthreads (at least), uses if_* interfaces
that weren't in POSIX before 2001, resulting in linknamespace
failures. This patch changes those interfaces to be weak aliases of
__if_* and makes the resolver use __if_* directly.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that disassembly of installed shared

I see this warning in my build on F21 x86_64, which seems to be due to
a weak check for array bounds. Fixed by making the bounds check
stronger.
This is not an actual bug since nscount is never set to anything
greater than MAXNS. The compiler however does not know this, so we
need the stronger bounds check to quieten the compiler.
It seems we require texinfo 4.7 for the --plaintext option, so
document that and check for the correct version in configure.
ChangeLog:
2014-12-15 Will Newton <will.newton@linaro.org>
* manual/install.texi: Bump required version of texinfo
to 4.7 from 4.5.
* INSTALL: Regenerated.
* configure.ac: Check for makeinfo version 4.7 and above.
* configure: Regenerated.
In send_vc function at resolv/res_send.c, There is the
following warning on some architectures:
'resplen' may be used uninitialized in this function
[-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
And this is a false positive. This patch suppress the
compiler warning.
Carlos reported failures in conform/ tests in environments where the
compiler used could only find headers in glibc's source and build
trees, not any previously installed headers
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-09/msg00040.html>.
This patch moves nptl/semaphore.h to sysdeps/pthread/semaphore.h so
that it can be found by builds from all glibc subdirectories; it's not
in any way NPTL-specific. (I left the Makefile setting to install
this header in nptl/, but maybe it should move as well - it's just not
clear to me what ifeq ($(subdir),...) conditional should be used to
select the directory to associate the header with for installation
purposes. The path in the toplevel Makefile used for begin-end-check
also remains hardcoded; it's a known todo issue to rework that test to
run in each subdirectory checking the headers installed from that
subdirectory, rather than a separate hardcoded list.)
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that installed stripped shared
libraries are unchanged by the patch). I did *not* test a
configuration such as that in which Carlos saw failure.
* nptl/semaphore.h: Move to ...
* sysdeps/pthread/semaphore.h: ... here.
* Makefile (installed-headers): Change nptl/semaphore.h to
sysdeps/pthread/semaphore.h.
Carlos reported failures in conform/ tests in environments where the
compiler used could only find headers in glibc's source and build
trees, not any previously installed headers
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-09/msg00040.html>.
This patch adds wrappers for two of the affected headers to include/,
which is the normal way to make headers visible when building or
testing in directories other than the one containing the header (I
suppose these headers weren't needed in any such directories except
conform/, or other build or test failures would have resulted). I
believe the same issue applies at least to regexp.h and re_comp.h - we
don't currently have conform/ expectations for those, but when such
expectations are added we'll also need to add header wrappers.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that installed stripped shared
libraries are unchanged by the patch). I did *not* test a
configuration such as that in which Carlos saw failure.
* include/cpio.h: New file.
* include/fmtmsg.h: Likewise.
Without this, on gcc 4.8.2 the built glibc crashes when memcpy
or memset are invoked, since they call themselves recursively.
