I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 6694 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c
and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this
diagnostic from Savannah:
remote: *** pre-commit check failed ...
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
The kernel ABI is not finalized, and there are now various proposals
to change the size of struct rseq, which would make the glibc ABI
dependent on the version of the kernels used for building glibc.
This is of course not acceptable.
This reverts commit 48699da1c4 ("elf:
Support at least 32-byte alignment in static dlopen"), commit
8f4632deb3 ("Linux: rseq registration
tests"), commit 6e29cb3f61 ("Linux: Use
rseq in sched_getcpu if available"), and commit
0c76fc3c2b ("Linux: Perform rseq
registration at C startup and thread creation"), resolving the conflicts
introduced by the ARC port and the TLS static surplus changes.

When available, use the cpu_id field from __rseq_abi on Linux to
implement sched_getcpu(). Fall-back on the vgetcpu vDSO if unavailable.
Benchmarks:
x86-64: Intel E5-2630 v3@2.40GHz, 16-core, hyperthreading
glibc sched_getcpu(): 13.7 ns (baseline)
glibc sched_getcpu() using rseq: 2.5 ns (speedup: 5.5x)
inline load cpuid from __rseq_abi TLS: 0.8 ns (speedup: 17.1x)
As indicated on libc-help [1] the ec138c67cb commit broke 32-bit
builds when configured with --enable-kernel=5.1 or higher. The
scenario 10 from [2] might also occur in this configuration and
INLINE_VSYSCALL will try to use the vDSO symbol and
HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME64_VSYSCALL does not set HAVE_VSYSCALL prior its
usage.
Also, there is no easy way to just enable the code to use one
vDSO symbol since the macro INLINE_VSYSCALL is redefined if
HAVE_VSYSCALL is set.
Instead of adding more pre-processor handling and making the code
even more convoluted, this patch removes the requirement of defining
HAVE_VSYSCALL before including sysdep-vdso.h to enable vDSO usage.
The INLINE_VSYSCALL is now expected to be issued inside a
HAVE_*_VSYSCALL check, since it will try to use the internal vDSO
pointers.
Both clock_getres and clock_gettime vDSO code for time64_t were
removed since there is no vDSO setup code for the symbol (an
architecture can not set HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME64_VSYSCALL).
Checked on i686-linux-gnu (default and with --enable-kernel=5.1),
x86_64-linux-gnu, aarch64-linux-gnu, and powerpc64le-linux-gnu.
I also checked against a build to mips64-linux-gnu and
sparc64-linux-gnu.

This patch consolidates the sched_getcpu implementations across all
arches (except tile, which requires its own). This patch removes
the powerpc, x86_64 and x32 specific files and change the default
linux one to use INLINE_VSYSCALL where possible (for ports that
implements it).
