This patch uses the new futex PI operation provided by Linux v5.14
when it is required.
The futex_lock_pi64() is moved to futex-internal.c (since it used on
two different places and its code size might be large depending of the
kernel configuration) and clockid is added as an argument.

C2X adds a macro _PRINTF_NAN_LEN_MAX to <stdio.h>, giving the maximum
length of printf output for a NaN. glibc never includes an
n-char-sequence in its printf output for NaNs, so the correct value
for glibc is 4 ("-nan" or "-NAN"); define the macro accordingly.
This patch makes the macro definition conditional on __GLIBC_USE
(ISOC2X), as is generally done with features from new standard
versions. The name is in the implementation namespace for older
standards, so it would also be possible to define it unconditionally.
Tested for x86_64.
glibc has had exp10 functions since long before they were
standardized; now they are standardized in TS 18661-4 and C2X, they
are also specified there to have a corresponding type-generic macro.
Add one to <tgmath.h>, so fixing bug 26108.
glibc doesn't have other functions from TS 18661-4 yet, but when
added, it will be natural to add the type-generic macro for each
function family at the same time as the functions.

Recent versions of binutils (with commit
b25f942e18d6ecd7ec3e2d2e9930eb4f996c258a) stopped preserving "sticky"
options across a base `.machine` directive, nullifying the use of
passing "-many" through GCC to the assembler. As a result, some
instructions which were recognized even under older, more stringent
`.machine` directives become unrecognized instructions in that
context.
In `sysdeps/powerpc/tst-set_ppr.c`, the use of the `mfppr32` extended
mnemonic became unrecognized, as the default compilation with GCC for
32bit powerpc adds a `.machine ppc` in the resulting assembly, so the
command line option `-Wa,-many` is essentially ignored, and the ISA 2.06
instructions and mnemonics, like `mfppr32`, are unrecognized.
The compilation of `sysdeps/powerpc/tst-set_ppr.c` fails with:
Error: unrecognized opcode: `mfppr32'
Add appropriate `.machine` directives in the assembly to bracket the
`mfppr32` instruction.
Part of a 2019 fix (commit 9250e6610f) to
the above test's Makefile to add `-many` to the compilation when GCC
itself stopped passing `-many` to the assember no longer has any effect,

At the last WG14 meeting,
<http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n2711.htm> was
accepted, which places more emphasis on the new fmaximum / fminimum
functions and less on the old fmax / fmin functions. Some of the
changes are to examples, notes or otherwise don't require
implementation changes. However, the changes include removing the
_FloatN / _FloatNx versions of the fmax and fmin functions that came
from TS 18661-3.
Thus, those function versions should only be declared under similar
conditions to the _FloatN / _FloatNx versions of fmaxmag and fminmag:
for _GNU_SOURCE and pre-C2X use of __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_TYPES_EXT__,
but not for C2X without _GNU_SOURCE.
In turn this requires a tgmath.h change so that the corresponding
tgmath.h macros, for C2X with __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_TYPES_EXT__ but
without _GNU_SOURCE, don't try to use function variants that aren't
declared. (That issue doesn't arise for the tgmath.h macros for
fmaxmag and fminmag, because those aren't defined at all in those
circumstances unless __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_BFP_EXT__ (from TS 18661-1
and not specified at all by C2X) is also defined, and in that case the
_FloatN / _FloatNx versions of fmaxmag and fminmag get declared - this
is only ever an issue when it's possible for some functions
corresponding to a type-generic-macro to be declared, and for _FloatN
/ _FloatNx functions in general to be declared, but without the
_FloatN / _FloatNx functions corresponding to that particular macro
being declared.)
Tested for x86_64.
C2X does not include fmaxmag and fminmag. When I updated feature test
macro handling accordingly (commit
858045ad1c, "Update floating-point
feature test macro handling for C2X", included in 2.34), I missed
updating tgmath.h so it doesn't define the corresponding type-generic
macros unless __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_BFP_EXT__ is defined; I've now
reported this as bug 28397. Adjust the conditionals in tgmath.h
accordingly.
Tested for x86_64.
C2X adds new <math.h> functions for floating-point maximum and
minimum, corresponding to the new operations that were added in IEEE
754-2019 because of concerns about the old operations not being
associative in the presence of signaling NaNs. fmaximum and fminimum
handle NaNs like most <math.h> functions (any NaN argument means the
result is a quiet NaN). fmaximum_num and fminimum_num handle both
quiet and signaling NaNs the way fmax and fmin handle quiet NaNs (if
one argument is a number and the other is a NaN, return the number),
but still raise "invalid" for a signaling NaN argument, making them
exceptions to the normal rule that a function with a floating-point
result raising "invalid" also returns a quiet NaN. fmaximum_mag,
fminimum_mag, fmaximum_mag_num and fminimum_mag_num are corresponding
functions returning the argument with greatest or least absolute
value. All these functions also treat +0 as greater than -0. There
are also corresponding <tgmath.h> type-generic macros.
Add these functions to glibc. The implementations use type-generic
templates based on those for fmax, fmin, fmaxmag and fminmag, and test
inputs are based on those for those functions with appropriate
adjustments to the expected results. The RISC-V maintainers might
wish to add optimized versions of fmaximum_num and fminimum_num (for
float and double), since RISC-V (F extension version 2.2 and later)
provides instructions corresponding to those functions - though it
might be at least as useful to add architecture-independent built-in
functions to GCC and teach the RISC-V back end to expand those
functions inline, which is what you generally want for functions that
can be implemented with a single instruction.
Tested for x86_64 and x86, and with build-many-glibcs.py.
AF_NETLINK support is not quite optional on modern Linux systems
anymore, so it is likely that the first attempt will always succeed.
Consequently, there is no need to cache the result. Keep AF_UNIX
and the Internet address families as a fallback, for the rare case
that AF_NETLINK is missing. The other address families previously
probed are totally obsolete be now, so remove them.
Use this simplified version as the generic implementation, disabling
Netlink support as needed.
When running this test on the OpenRISC port I am working on this test
fails with a timeout. The test passes when being straced or debugged.
Looking at the code there seems to be a race condition in that:
1 main thread: calls xpthread_cancel
2 sub thread : receives cancel signal
3 sub thread : cleanup routine waits on barrier
4 main thread: re-inits barrier
5 main thread: waits on barrier
After getting to 5 the main thread and sub thread wait forever as the 2
barriers are no longer the same.
Removing the barrier re-init seems to fix this issue. Also, the barrier
does not need to be reinitialized as that is done by default.

TS 18661-1 and C2X specify predefined macros __STDC_IEC_60559_BFP__
and __STDC_IEC_60559_COMPLEX__, making __STDC_IEC_559__ and
__STDC_IEC_559_COMPLEX__ obsolescent (but still included in the
standard). Now that we have all the functions from TS 18661-1, define
these macros in stdc-predef.h, under the same conditions in which the
older macros are defined, since support for the floating-point
features in TS 18661-1 is now at the same level as that for those in
C11 and before (all library functions and other library APIs present,
but no standard pragma support).
The macros are defined for now with their TS 18661-1 values. C2X will
give them new values (listed as yyyymmL in the working drafts until
the final standard), at which point there will be the question of what
value to use in stdc-predef.h (where it could depend on
__STDC_VERSION__, but not on feature test macros defined by the user).
My inclination then would be to use the C2X value unconditionally
rather than using an older value to indicate TS support, and only have
any C standard version conditionals for the value when subsequent C
standard versions define further values.
(Note that I'm also inclined, when we implement the C2X change to the
return types of fromfp functions, to make that change unconditional
much like the change made to the types of totalorder functions, with
the old version only supported with compat symbols for already-linked
programs and not as an API for newly built objects. So using the C2X
value would also accurately reflect not supporting the versions of
APIs in the TS where those ended up being incompatible with the first
version actually added to the standard.)
Tested for x86_64.
It turns out the __SSE2_MATH__ conditional in sysdeps/x86/fpu/s_ffma.c
does not cover all cases where the x86 fenv_private.h macros might
manipulate one of the SSE and 387 floating-point state, while the
actual fma implementation uses the other. Specifically, in the 32-bit
case, with a compiler not defaulting to -mfpmath=sse, but testing on a
processor with hardware FMA support, the multiarch fma function
implementations will end up using SSE, while the fenv_private.h macros
will use the 387 state for double. Change the conditional to use the
default macros rather than the optimized ones in all cases except when
the compiler inlines an fma instruction (in which case, since all
those instructions are SSE instructions and -mfpmath=sse must be in
effect for them to be inlined, the optimized macros will only use the
SSE state and it's OK for them to only use the SSE state).

When testing nptl/tst-pthread-attr-affinity-fail fails with:

This happens as xsysconf checks the errno after running sysconf.
Internally the sysconf request for _SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF on linux
allocates memory. But there is a problem, even though malloc succeeds
errno is getting set to ENOMEM.
POSIX allows successful calls to clobber errno. So xsysconf just
checking errno is wrong. Fix xsysconf by only failing if we have an

Fixes: b3f27d8150 ("Add narrowing fma functions")
On 32-bit x86 with -mfpmath=sse, and on x86_64 with
--disable-multi-arch, the tests of ffma and its aliases (fma narrowing
from binary64 to binary32) fail. This is probably the issue reported
by H.J. in
<https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2021-September/131277.html>.
The problem is the use of fenv_private.h macros in the round-to-odd
implementation. Those macros are set up to manipulate only one of the
SSE and 387 floating-point state, whichever is relevant for the type
indicated by the suffix on the macro name. But x86 configurations
sometimes use the ldbl-96 implementation of binary64 fma (that's where
--disable-multi-arch is relevant for x86_64: it causes the ldbl-96
implementation to be used, instead of an IFUNC implementation that
falls back to the dbl-64 version), contrary to the expectations of
those macros for functions operating on double when __SSE2_MATH__ is
defined.
This can be addressed by using the default versions of those macros
(giving x86 its own version of s_ffma.c), as is done for the *f128
macro variants where it depends on the details of how GCC was
configured when building libgcc which floating-point state is affected
by _Float128 arithmetic. The issue only applies when __SSE2_MATH__ is
defined, and doesn't apply when __FP_FAST_FMA is defined (because in
that case, fma will be inlined by the compiler, meaning it's
definitely an SSE operation; for the same reason, this is not an issue
for narrowing sqrt, as hardware sqrt is always inlined in that
implementation for x86), but in other cases it's safest to use the
default versions of the fenv_private.h macros to ensure things work
whichever fma implementation is used.
Tested for x86_64 (with and without --disable-multi-arch) and x86
(with and without -mfpmath=sse).
Instead of checking a pointer argument for NULL, use helper macros
defined differently in the non-positional and positional cases.
This avoids frequent conditional checks and a GCC 12 warning
about comparing pointers against NULL which cannot be NULL.
A lot of the code is unique to the positional and non-positional
code. Also unify the decimal and hexadecimal cases via the new
helper function __printf_fp_spec.
As part of the fix for bug 12889, signals are blocked during
thread exit, so that application code cannot run on the thread that
is about to exit. This would cause problems if the application
expected signals to be delivered after the signal handler revealed
the thread to still exist, despite pthread_kill can no longer be used
to send signals to it. However, glibc internally uses the SIGSETXID
signal in a way that is incompatible with signal blocking, due to the
way the setxid handshake delays thread exit until the setxid operation
has completed. With a blocked SIGSETXID, the handshake can never
complete, causing a deadlock.
As a band-aid, restore the previous handshake protocol by not blocking
SIGSETXID during thread exit.

This patch adds the narrowing fused multiply-add functions from TS

__f32fmaieee128 and __f64fmaieee128 aliases in the powerpc64le case
(for calls to ffmal and dfmal when long double is IEEE binary128).
Corresponding tgmath.h macro support is also added.
The changes are mostly similar to those for the other narrowing
functions previously added, especially that for sqrt, so the
description of those generally applies to this patch as well. As with
sqrt, I reused the same test inputs in auto-libm-test-in as for
non-narrowing fma rather than adding extra or separate inputs for
narrowing fma. The tests in libm-test-narrow-fma.inc also follow
those for non-narrowing fma.
The non-narrowing fma has a known bug (bug 6801) that it does not set
errno on errors (overflow, underflow, Inf * 0, Inf - Inf). Rather
than fixing this or having narrowing fma check for errors when
non-narrowing does not (complicating the cases when narrowing fma can
otherwise be an alias for a non-narrowing function), this patch does
not attempt to check for errors from narrowing fma and set errno; the
CHECK_NARROW_FMA macro is still present, but as a placeholder that
does nothing, and this missing errno setting is considered to be
covered by the existing bug rather than needing a separate open bug.
missing-errno annotations are duly added to many of the
auto-libm-test-in test inputs for fma.
This completes adding all the new functions from TS 18661-1 to glibc,
so will be followed by corresponding stdc-predef.h changes to define

for TS 18661-1 will be at a similar level to that for C standard
floating-point facilities up to C11 (pragmas not implemented, but
library functions done). (There are still further changes to be done
to implement changes to the types of fromfp functions from N2548.)

11, 7 and 6; cross testing of math/ tests for powerpc64le, powerpc32
hard float, mips64 (all three ABIs, both hard and soft float). The
different GCC versions are to cover the different cases in tgmath.h
and tgmath.h tests properly (GCC 6 has _Float* only as typedefs in
glibc headers, GCC 7 has proper _Float* support, GCC 8 adds
__builtin_tgmath).

As described in bug 28358, the round-to-odd computations used in the
libm functions that round their results to a narrower format can yield
spurious underflow exceptions in the following circumstances: the
narrowing only narrows the precision of the type and not the exponent
range (i.e., it's narrowing _Float128 to _Float64x on x86_64, x86 or
ia64), the architecture does after-rounding tininess detection (which
applies to all those architectures), the result is inexact, tiny
before rounding but not tiny after rounding (with the chosen rounding
mode) for _Float64x (which is possible for narrowing mul, div and fma,
not for narrowing add, sub or sqrt), so the underflow exception
resulting from the toward-zero computation in _Float128 is spurious
for _Float64x.
Fixed by making ROUND_TO_ODD call feclearexcept (FE_UNDERFLOW) in the
problem cases (as indicated by an extra argument to the macro); there
is never any need to preserve underflow exceptions from this part of
the computation, because the conversion of the round-to-odd value to
the narrower type will underflow in exactly the cases in which the
function should raise that exception, but it may be more efficient to
avoid the extra manipulation of the floating-point environment when
not needed.

The fix for bug 19193 breaks some old applications which appear
to use pthread_kill to probe if a thread is still running, something
that is not supported by POSIX.
Glibc does not provide an interface for debugger to access libraries
loaded in multiple namespaces via dlmopen.
The current rtld-debugger interface is described in the file:
elf/rtld-debugger-interface.txt
under the "Standard debugger interface" heading. This interface only
provides access to the first link-map (LM_ID_BASE).
1. Bump r_version to 2 when multiple namespaces are used. This triggers
the GDB bug:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28236
2. Add struct r_debug_extended to extend struct r_debug into a linked-list,
where each element correlates to an unique namespace.
3. Initialize the r_debug_extended structure. Bump r_version to 2 for
the new namespace and add the new namespace to the namespace linked list.
4. Add _dl_debug_update to return the address of struct r_debug' of a
namespace.
5. Add a hidden symbol, _r_debug_extended, for struct r_debug_extended.
6. Provide the symbol, _r_debug, with size of struct r_debug, as an alias
of _r_debug_extended, for programs which reference _r_debug.
This fixes BZ #15971.

My glibc bot showed that my conformtest changes fail the build of the
conformtest execution tests for x86_64-linux-gnu-static-pie, because
linking the newly built object with the newly built libc and the
associated options normally used for linking requires it to be built
as PIE. Add $(pie-default) to the compiler command used so that PIE
options are used when required.
There's a case for using the whole of $(CFLAGS-.o) (which includes
$(pie-default)), but that raises questions of any impact from using
optimization flags from CFLAGS in these tests. So for now just use
$(pie-default) as the key part of $(CFLAGS-.o) that's definitely
needed.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py for x86_64-linux-gnu-static-pie.
