Colin Watson reported that some versions of gcc warn about
attribute leaf used on a static function, since it has no
effect on anything but external functions.
* posix/glob.c (next_brace_sub, prefix_array, collated_compare):
Use __THROWNL rather than __THROW on static functions.

sysdeps/unix/make-syscalls.sh and sysdeps/unix/Makefile use GNU Bash's
${parameter/pattern/string} parameter expansion. Non-Bash shells (e.g.
dash or BusyBox ash when built with CONFIG_ASH_BASH_COMPAT disabled)
don't support this expansion syntax. So glibc will fail to build when
$(SHELL) expands to a path that isn't provided by Bash.
An example build failure:
for dir in [...]; do \
test -f $dir/syscalls.list && \
{ sysdirs='[...]' \
asm_CPP='gcc -c -I[...] -D_LIBC_REENTRANT -include include/libc-symbols.h -DASSEMBLER -g -Wa,--noexecstack -E -x assembler-with-cpp' \
/bin/sh sysdeps/unix/make-syscalls.sh $dir || exit 1; }; \
test $dir = sysdeps/unix && break; \
done > [build-dir]/sysd-syscallsT
sysdeps/unix/make-syscalls.sh: line 273: syntax error: bad substitution
This patch simply replaces the three instances of the Bash-only syntax
in these files with an echo and sed command substitution.

* sysdeps/mach/hurd/i386/tls.h (TLS_INIT_TP_EXPENSIVE): Remove
macro.
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.
Statically built binaries use __pointer_chk_guard_local,
while dynamically built binaries use __pointer_chk_guard.
Provide the right definition depending on the test case
we are building.
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.

It has been a long practice for software using IEEE 754 floating-point
arithmetic run on MIPS processors to use an encoding of Not-a-Number
(NaN) data different to one used by software run on other processors.
And as of IEEE 754-2008 revision [1] this encoding does not follow one
recommended in the standard, as specified in section 6.2.1, where it
is stated that quiet NaNs should have the first bit (d1) of their
significand set to 1 while signalling NaNs should have that bit set to
0, but MIPS software interprets the two bits in the opposite manner.
As from revision 3.50 [2][3] the MIPS Architecture provides for
processors that support the IEEE 754-2008 preferred NaN encoding format.
As the two formats (further referred to as "legacy NaN" and "2008 NaN")
are incompatible to each other, tools have to provide support for the
two formats to help people avoid using incompatible binary modules.
The change is comprised of two functional groups of features, both of
which are required for correct support.
1. Dynamic linker support.
To enforce the NaN encoding requirement in dynamic linking a new ELF
file header flag has been defined. This flag is set for 2008-NaN
shared modules and executables and clear for legacy-NaN ones. The
dynamic linker silently ignores any incompatible modules it
encounters in dependency processing.
To avoid unnecessary processing of incompatible modules in the
presence of a shared module cache, a set of new cache flags has been
defined to mark 2008-NaN modules for the three ABIs supported.
Changes to sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/readelflib.c have been made
following an earlier code quality suggestion made here:
http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-ports/2009-03/msg00036.html
and are therefore a little bit more extensive than the minimum
required.
Finally a new name has been defined for the dynamic linker so that
2008-NaN and legacy-NaN binaries can coexist on a single system that
supports dual-mode operation and that a legacy dynamic linker that
does not support verifying the 2008-NaN ELF file header flag is not
chosen to interpret a 2008-NaN binary by accident.
2. Floating environment support.
IEEE 754-2008 features are controlled in the Floating-Point Control
and Status (FCSR) register and updates are needed to floating
environment support so that the 2008-NaN flag is set correctly and
the kernel default, inferred from the 2008-NaN ELF file header flag
at the time an executable is loaded, respected.
As the NaN encoding format is a property of GCC code generation that is
both a user-selected GCC configuration default and can be overridden
with GCC options, code that needs to know what NaN encoding standard it
has been configured for checks for the __mips_nan2008 macro that is
defined internally by GCC whenever the 2008-NaN mode has been selected.
This mode is determined at the glibc configuration time and therefore a
few consistency checks have been added to catch cases where compilation
flags have been overridden by the user.
The 2008 NaN set of features relies on kernel support as the in-kernel
floating-point emulator needs to be aware of the NaN encoding used even
on hard-float processors and configure the FPU context according to the
value of the 2008 NaN ELF file header flag of the executable being
started. As at this time work on kernel support is still in progress
and the relevant changes have not made their way yet to linux.org master
repository.
Therefore the minimum version supported has been artificially set to
10.0.0 so that 2008-NaN code is not accidentally run on a Linux kernel
that does not suppport it. It is anticipated that the version is
adjusted later on to the actual initial linux.org kernel version to
support this feature. Legacy NaN encoding support is unaffected, older
kernel versions remain supported.
