Open file description locks have been merged into the Linux kernel for
v3.15. Add the appropriate command-value definitions and an update to
the manual that describes their usage.
This is a change to the dynamic linker to add prelinker support for the
R_ARM_TLS_DESC relocation. Two cases can be considered here, the usual
one where lazy binding is in use and the less frequent one, where
immediate binding is requested via the use of the DF_BIND_NOW dynamic
flag (e.g. by using the GNU linker's "-z now" option).
This change only handles the first case. In this scenario the prelinker
does what the dynamic linker would do, that is it preinitialises
R_ARM_TLS_DESC relocations with a pointer to the lazy specialization as
provided with the DT_TLSDESC_PLT dynamic tag. A conflict is
additionally created and in the conflict resolution path the dynamic
linker complements the work by initialising the object's pointer as
indicated by the DT_TLSDESC_GOT dynamic tag to the linker's internal
lazy specialization worker function and also providing the associated
link map in the second entry of the GOT. This step is required, because
if prelinking is successful at the run time, then the dynamic linker's
elf_machine_runtime_setup() function isn't called that would normally do
so.
The second case remains unresolved, because support for that scenario
has not been implemented in the prelinker. In this case the lazy
specialization is unavailable and the DT_TLSDESC_PLT dynamic tag is not
present.
The prelinker could assume the common case of static specialization and
resolve the relocation, but that would require the exposure of dynamic
linker's specialization worker function. Furthermore the dynamic linker
would have to handle the relocation in the conflict resolution path and
see if the dynamic specialization should be used instead. This however
would require access to data structures currently not made available to
the conflict resolution path and therefore a redesign of this part of
the dynamic linker.
Alternatively the prelinker could defer all processing to the dynamic
linker's conflict resolution path, but that would require similar access
to the said data structures.
Therefore the prelinker issues an error instead and the dynamic linker
has assertions to check that DT_TLSDESC_PLT and DT_TLSDESC_GOT are in
use in its conflict resolution path.
This change resolves all TLS failures in the prelinker testsuite, as
noted in the bug report, as well as the small test case provided there.
Unfortunately we don't seem to have any hooks to factor in the prelinker
(if present on a system) to testing, so at this time this fix has to
rely on using the prelinker test suite and enabling TLS descriptors
there for coverage.

This patch fixes bug 17088, fallback fesetenv and feupdateenv not
giving an error for an FE_NOMASK_ENV argument when it requires traps

If a call to the set*id functions fails in a multi-threaded program,
the abort introduced in commit 13f7fe35ae
was triggered.
We address by checking that all calls to set*id on all threads give
the same result, and only abort if we see success followed by failure
(or vice versa).
Here's an updated patch to fix the crash in bug-ga2 when the system
has no configured ipv6 address. I have taken a different approach of
using libc_freeres_fn instead of the libc_freeres_ptr since the former
gives better control over what is freed; we need that since cache may
or may not be allocated using malloc.
Verified that bug-ga2 works correctly in both cases and does not have
memory leaks in either of them.
This patch fixes bug 17097, ldbl-128 powl producing overflowing /
underflowing results with positive sign when the result should have
been negative. This was shown up by the tests in non-default rounding
modes added by my patch for bug 16315, but isn't actually limited to
non-default rounding modes: rather, when rounding to nearest the
wrappers produced a result with the correct sign and so always hid the
bug unless -lieee was used to disable the wrappers. The problem is
that in the cases where Y is large enough that the result overflows or
underflows for X not very close to 1, but not large enough to overflow
or underflow for all X != +/- 1 (in the latter case Y is always an
even integer), a positive overflowing / underflowing result is always
returned, rather than one with the correct sign. This patch moves the
relevant part of computation of the sign earlier and returns a result
of the correct sign.
Tested for mips64.
[BZ #17097]
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/e_powl.c (__ieee754_powl): Return
result with correct sign in case of exponents that produce
overflow except for X very close to 1.
The nscd parent process returns the result of a `wait' call rather
than the exit status of the child it waits for. These two aren't
exactly the same. In my case (and probably on most machines), the exit
status is in the 2nd LSB of the result of `wait', and so:
e.g. if the nscd child process returns 1, the parent returns 1 << 8,
which Bash happily reports as 0.
This patch fixes bugs 16561 and 16562, bad results of yn in overflow
cases in non-default rounding modes, both because an intermediate
overflow in the recurrence does not get detected if the result is not
an infinity and because an overflowing result may occur in the wrong
sign. The fix is to set FE_TONEAREST mode internally for the parts of
the function where such overflows can occur (which includes the call
to y1 - where yn is used to compute a Bessel function of order -1,
negating the result of y1 isn't correct for overflowing results in
directed rounding modes) and then compute an overflowing value in the
original rounding mode if the to-nearest result was an infinity.
Tested x86_64 and x86 and ulps updated accordingly. Also tested for
mips64 and powerpc32 to test the ldbl-128 and ldbl-128ibm changes.
(The tests for these bugs were added in my previous y1 patch, so the
only thing this patch has to do with the testsuite is enable yn
testing in all rounding modes.)

This patch updates README to remove a mention of the ports directory.
It also adds a NEWS item for the merge of ports into the main sysdeps
tree (I think it's NEWS-worthy, although not strictly a user-visible
feature).
Other remaining ports references to resolve: a comment in
manual/signal.texi (not giving a literal path, but maybe should change
anyway); a comment in config.h.in (path should be updated);
scripts/list-sources.sh (appears to date back to ports being a
separate repository).
* README: Do not mention ports directory.
This patch fixes bug 16539, spurious underflow exceptions from x86 /
x86-64 expm1l. The problem is that the computation of a base-2
exponent with extra precision involves spurious underflows for
arguments that are small but not subnormal, so a check is added to
just return the argument in those cases. (If the argument *is*
subnormal, underflowing is correct and the existing code will always
underflow, so it suffices to keep using the existing code in that
case; some expm1 implementations have a bug (bug 16353) with missing
underflow exceptions, but I don't think there's such a bug in this
particular version.)
Tested x86_64 and x86; no ulps updates needed.

This patch fixes bug 16287, spurious underflows from ldbl-128 erfl
arising from it calling erfcl for arguments with absolute value at
least 1.0, although for large positive arguments erfcl correctly
underflows but erfl shouldn't. The fix is simply to avoid calling
erfcl, and just return 1, for arguments above a cut-off large enough
that erfl correctly rounds to-nearest as 1 but not so large that erfcl
underflows.
Tested mips64. Also tested x86_64 and x86 to confirm the new tests
(taken from the tests of erfc) don't cause any problems there; no ulps
updates needed.
[BZ #16287]
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/s_erfl.c (__erfl): Return 1 without
calling __erfcl for arguments at least 16.

This patch fixes bug 16354, spurious underflows from cosh when a tiny
argument is passed to expm1 and expm1 correctly underflows although
the final result of cosh should be 1. As noted in that bug, some
cases are latent because of expm1 implementations not raising
underflow (bug 16353), but all the implementations are fixed
similarly. They already contained checks for tiny arguments, but the
checks were too late to avoid underflow from expm1 (although they
would avoid underflow from subsequent squaring of the result of
expm1); they are moved before the expm1 calls.
The thresholds used for considering arguments tiny are not
particularly consistent in how they relate to the precision of the
floating-point format in question. They are, however, all sufficient
to ensure that the round-to-nearest result of cosh is indeed 1 below
the threshold (although sometimes they are smaller than necessary).
But the previous logic did not return 1, but the previously computed 1
+ expm1(abs(x)) value. And the thresholds in the ldbl-128 and
ldbl-128ibm code (0x1p-71L - I suspect 0x3f8b was intended in the code
instead of 0x3fb8 - and (roughly) 0x1p-55L) are not sufficient for
that value to be 1. So by moving the test for tiny arguments, and
consequently returning 1 directly now the expm1 value hasn't been
computed by that point, this patch also fixes bug 17061, the (large
number of ulps) inaccuracy for small arguments in those
implementations. Tests for that bug are duly added.
Tested x86_64 and x86 and ulps updated accordingly. Also tested for
mips64 and powerpc32 to validate the ldbl-128 and ldbl-128ibm changes.

This patch fixes bug 17050, missing errno setting for y1 overflow (for
small positive arguments). An appropriate check is added for overflow
directly in the __ieee754_y1 implementation, similar to the check
present for yn (doing it there rather than in the wrapper also avoids
yn needing to repeat the check when called for order 1 or -1 and it
uses __ieee754_y1).

to verify the ldbl-128 fix (the ldbl-128ibm code just #includes the

This patch fixes bug 16315, bad pow handling of overflow/underflow in
non-default rounding modes. Tests of pow are duly converted to
ALL_RM_TEST to run all tests in all rounding modes.
There are two main issues here. First, various implementations
compute a negative result by negating a positive result, but this
yields inappropriate overflow / underflow values for directed
rounding, so either overflow / underflow results need recomputing in
the correct sign, or the relevant overflowing / underflowing operation
needs to be made to have a result of the correct sign. Second, the
dbl-64 implementation sets FE_TONEAREST internally; in the overflow /
underflow case, the result needs recomputing in the original rounding
mode.
Tested x86_64 and x86 and ulps updated accordingly.

This fixes the calculation of R_ARM_TLS_DESC relocations for lazy global
symbol references, i.e. created with `-z lazy' in effect with the static
linker, where immediate resolution is requested with LD_BIND_NOW.
Errno is not set and the testcases will fail.
Now the scalbln-aliases are removed in i386/m68
and the wrappers are used when calling the scalbln-functions.
On ia64 only scalblnf has its own implementation.
For scalbln and scalblnl the ieee754/dbl-64 and ieee754/ldbl-96 are used, thus
the wrappers are needed, too.
Implementation of strchr for AArch64. Speedups taken from micro-bench

The use of LD1 means we have identical code for both big- and
little-endian systems.
This patch fixes __ieee754_logl (-LDBL_MAX) on x86_64 and x86 not to
subtract 1 from its argument and so cause spurious overflow in
FE_DOWNWARD mode. (For any argument strictly less than -1, it doesn't
matter whether or not 1 is subtracted before computing log1p, as long
as the result doesn't overflow to -Inf.)
Tested x86_64 and x86. (This particular case lacks test coverage,
since the testsuite doesn't cover -lieee, but it will be covered by
tests after the following patch to test pow in all rounding modes,
which was the context in which this bug was found.)

The implementation of __get_nprocs uses a stactic variable to cache
the value of the current number of processors. The caching breaks when
'time (NULL) == 0':
$ cat nproc.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
time_t t;
struct timeval tv = {0, 0};
printf("settimeofday({0, 0}, NULL) = %d\n", settimeofday(&tv, NULL));
t = time(NULL);
printf("Time: %d, CPUs: %d\n", (unsigned int)t, get_nprocs());
return 0;
}
$ gcc -O3 nproc.c
$ ./a.out
settimeofday({0, 0}, NULL) = -1
Time: 1401311578, CPUs: 4
$ sudo ./a.out
settimeofday({0, 0}, NULL) = 0
Time: 0, CPUs: 0
The problem is with the condition used to check whether a cached
value should be returned or not:
static int cached_result;
static time_t timestamp;
time_t now = time (NULL);
time_t prev = timestamp;
atomic_read_barrier ();
if (now == prev)
return cached_result;
This patch fixes the problem by ensuring that 'cached_result' has
been set at least once before returning it.
POSIX requires that we make a copy, so we allocate a new string

As with other issues of this kind, bug 17042 is log2 (1) wrongly
returning -0 instead of +0 in round-downward mode because of
implementations effectively in terms of log1p (x - 1). This patch
fixes the issue in the same way used for log and log10.
Tested x86_64 and x86 and ulps updated accordingly. Also tested for
mips64 to confirm a fix was needed for ldbl-128 and to validate that

essentially the same as the ldbl-128 one).

The current code for handling concurrent resolution says that the
ABI for _dl_tlsdesc_resolve_hold is the same as that of
_dl_tlsdesc_lazy_resolver. However _dl_tlsdesc_resolve_hold is
called from the trampoline directly rather than the lazy resolver
stub so, for example, r2 has not been pushed so does not needed
to be restored.
This fixes an intermittent failure in nptl/tst-tls3 when building
glibc for arm-linux-gnueabihf with -mtls-dialect=gnu2.

[BZ #16990]
* sysdeps/arm/dl-tlsdesc.S (_dl_tlsdesc_resolve_hold): Save

The offset computation in write mode uses the fact that _IO_read_end
is kept in sync with the external file offset. This however is not
true when O_APPEND is in effect since switching to write mode ought to
send the external file offset to the end of file without making the
necessary adjustment to _IO_read_end.
Hence in append mode, offset computation when writing should only
consider the effect of unflushed writes, i.e. from _IO_write_base to
_IO_write_ptr.
The wiki has a detailed document that describes the rationale for
offsets returned by ftell in various conditions:
https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/File%20offsets%20in%20a%20stdio%20stream%20and%20ftell
This fixes a variety of testsuite failures for me:
tststatic.out Error 1
tststatic2.out Error 1
tst-tls9-static.out Error 1
tst-audit8.out Error 127
tst-audit9.out Error 127
tst-audit1.out Error 127
and also has the added benefit of making LD_AUDIT/sotruss work on
AArch64.
Otherwise, we bail out early in _dl_try_allocate_static_tls as the
alignment requirement of the PT_TLS section in libc is 16.
The netgroups nss modules in the glibc tree use NSS_STATUS_UNAVAIL
(with errno as ERANGE) when the supplied buffer does not have
sufficient space for the result. This is wrong, because the canonical
way to indicate insufficient buffer is to set the errno to ERANGE and
the status to NSS_STATUS_TRYAGAIN, as is used by all other modules.
This fixes nscd behaviour when the nss_ldap module returns
NSS_STATUS_TRYAGAIN to indicate that a netgroup entry is too long to
fit into the supplied buffer.
