Commit 7f602256ab moved the tst-rfc3484*
tests from posix/ to nss/, but didn't correct references to point to
their new subdir when building for mach and arm. This commit fixes
that.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.sh for i686-gnu.
This patch adds a qsort and qsort_r to trigger the worst case
scenario for the quicksort (which glibc current lacks coverage).
The test is done with random input, dfferent internal types (uint8_t,
uint16_t, uint32_t, uint64_t, large size), and with
different set of element numbers.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.

This patch removes the mergesort optimization on qsort implementation
and uses the introsort instead. The mergesort implementation has some
issues:
- It is as-safe only for certain types sizes (if total size is less
than 1 KB with large element sizes also forcing memory allocation)
which contradicts the function documentation. Although not required
by the C standard, it is preferable and doable to have an O(1) space
implementation.
- The malloc for certain element size and element number adds
arbitrary latency (might even be worse if malloc is interposed).
- To avoid trigger swap from memory allocation the implementation
relies on system information that might be virtualized (for instance
VMs with overcommit memory) which might lead to potentially use of
swap even if system advertise more memory than actually has. The
check also have the downside of issuing syscalls where none is
expected (although only once per execution).
- The mergesort is suboptimal on an already sorted array (BZ#21719).
The introsort implementation is already optimized to use constant extra
space (due to the limit of total number of elements from maximum VM
size) and thus can be used to avoid the malloc usage issues.
Resulting performance is slower due the usage of qsort, specially in the
worst-case scenario (partialy or sorted arrays) and due the fact
mergesort uses a slight improved swap operations.
This change also renders the BZ#21719 fix unrequired (since it is meant
to fix the sorted input performance degradation for mergesort). The
manual is also updated to indicate the function is now async-cancel
safe.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.

This patch makes the quicksort implementation to acts as introsort, to
avoid worse-case performance (and thus making it O(nlog n)). It switch
to heapsort when the depth level reaches 2*log2(total elements). The
heapsort is a textbook implementation.

The optimization takes in consideration both the most common elements
are either 32 or 64 bit in size and inputs are aligned to the word
boundary. This is similar to what msort does.
For large buffer the swap operation uses memcpy/mempcpy with a
small fixed size buffer (so compiler might inline the operations).

The prototype is:
void __memswap (void *restrict p1, void *restrict p2, size_t n)
The function swaps the content of two memory blocks P1 and P2 of
len N. Memory overlap is NOT handled.

All the crypt related functions, cryptographic algorithms, and
make requirements are removed, with only the exception of md5
implementation which is moved to locale folder since it is
required by localedef for integrity protection (libc's
locale-reading code does not check these, but localedef does
generate them).
Besides thec code itself, both internal documentation and the
manual is also adjusted. This allows to remove both --enable-crypt
and --enable-nss-crypt configure options.

When building the testroot, the script runs the newly built ld.so on a
couple of binaries in order to copy over any additional libraries
needed. However, if the dependencies are found in the system cache, it
will be copied over using that path.
This is problematic if the system ld.so and the one built don't have the
exact same search configuration. We encountered this in Ubuntu, where we
build a variant of libc with -fno-omit-frame-pointer for accurate
performance profiling.
This variant is built using a non-standard slibdir to be able to be
co-installed with the default library (e.g. slibdir = /lib/libc6-prof).
Since we have /lib pointing to /usr/lib, any additional dependency
should still be reachable via /usr. However, resolving via the cache
might result in the additional DSOs being copied into $testroot/lib, out
of the search path in the container.
The problem has been triggered by 1d5024f4f0
("support: Build with exceptions and asynchronous unwind tables [BZ #30587]")
which introduced a dependency on libgcc_s.so.1 under some circumstances.

If feenableexcept or fedisableexcept gets excepts=FE_INVALID=0x80
as input, we have a signed left shift: 0x80 << 24 which is not
representable as int and thus is undefined behaviour according to
C standard.
This patch casts excepts as unsigned int before shifting, which is
defined.
For me, the observed undefined behaviour is that the shift is done
with "unsigned"-instructions, which is exactly what we want.
Furthermore, I don't get any exception-flags.
After the fix, the code is using the same instruction sequence as
before.
This reverts commit 6985865bc3.
Reason for revert:
The commit changes the order of ELF destructor calls too much relative
to what applications expect or can handle. In particular, during
process exit and _dl_fini, after the revert commit, we no longer call
the destructors of the main program first; that only happens after
some dlopen'ed objects have been destructed. This robs applications
of an opportunity to influence destructor order by calling dlclose
explicitly from the main program's ELF destructors. A couple of
different approaches involving reverse constructor order were tried,
and none of them worked really well. It seems we need to keep the
dependency sorting in _dl_fini.
There is also an ambiguity regarding nested dlopen calls from ELF
constructors: Should those destructors run before or after the object
that called dlopen? Commit 6985865bc3 used reverse order
of the start of ELF constructor calls for destructors, but arguably
using completion of constructors is more correct. However, that alone
is not sufficient to address application compatibility issues (it
does not change _dl_fini ordering at all).

Linux 6.5 adds a constant SCM_PIDFD (recall that the non-uapi
linux/socket.h, where this constant is added, is in fact a header
providing many constants that are part of the kernel/userspace
interface). This shows up that SCM_SECURITY, from the same set of
definitions and added in Linux 2.6.17, is also missing from glibc,
although glibc has the first two constants from this set, SCM_RIGHTS
and SCM_CREDENTIALS; add both missing constants to glibc.
Tested for x86_64.
