ia64 seems to use the same implementation of low-level locks as the
generic Linux lowlevellock.h. The futex syscalls are somewhat
different, but Roland thought it shouldn't matter. Note that the futex
calls are on the slow path always (except for PI mutexes).
Removing the custom low-level lock implementation will make further
refactoring easier, for example adding proper error checking to futex
operations.
Various remquo implementations produce a zero remainder with the wrong
sign (a zero remainder should always have the sign of the first
argument, as specified in IEEE 754) in round-downward mode, resulting
from the sign of 0 - 0. This patch checks for zero results and fixes
their sign accordingly.
Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 and powerpc.

Various remquo implementations, when computing the last three bits of
the quotient, have spurious overflows when 4 times the second argument
to remquo overflows. These overflows can in turn cause bad results in
rounding modes where that overflow results in a finite value. This
patch adds tests to avoid the problem multiplications in cases where
they would overflow, similar to those that control an earlier
multiplication by 8.
Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 and powerpc.

This patch is neither built nor tested but is equivalent to a MIPS
patch for the same fix.
The dbl-64/wordsize-64 remquo implementation follows similar logic to
various other implementations, but where that logic computes some
absolute values, it wrongly uses a previously computed bit-pattern for
the absolute value of the first argument, where actually it needs the
absolute value of the first argument mod 8 times the second. This
patch fixes it to compute the correct absolute value.
The integer quotient result of remquo is only specified mod 8
(including its sign); architecture-specific versions may well vary in
what results they give for higher bits of that result (and indeed bug
17569 gives an example correct result from __builtin_remquo giving 9
for that result, where the particular glibc implementation used in
that bug report would give 1 after this fix). Thus, this patch adapts
the tests of remquo to test that result only mod 8, to allow for such
variation when tests with higher quotient are included.
Tested for x86_64 and x86.
[BZ #17569]

Similarly to sqrt in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-02/msg00353.html>, the
powerpc sqrtf implementation for when _ARCH_PPCSQ is not defined also
relies on a * b + c being contracted into a fused multiply-add.
Although this contraction is not explicitly disabled for e_sqrtf.c, it
still seems appropriate to make the file explicit about its
requirements by using __builtin_fmaf; this patch does so.
Furthermore, it turns out that doing so fixes the observed inaccuracy
and missing exceptions (that is, that without explicit __builtin_fmaf
usage, it was not being compiled as intended).
Tested for powerpc32 (hard float).
[BZ #17967]
* sysdeps/powerpc/fpu/e_sqrtf.c (__slow_ieee754_sqrtf): Use
__builtin_fmaf instead of relying on contraction of a * b + c.
As Adhemerval noted in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-01/msg00451.html>, the
powerpc sqrt implementation for when _ARCH_PPCSQ is not defined is
inaccurate in some cases.
The problem is that this code relies on fused multiply-add, and relies
on the compiler contracting a * b + c to get a fused operation. But
sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/Makefile disables contraction for e_sqrt.c,
because the implementation in that directory relies on *not* having
contracted operations.
While it would be possible to arrange makefiles so that an earlier
sysdeps directory can disable the setting in
sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/Makefile, it seems a lot cleaner to make the
dependence on fused operations explicit in the .c file. GCC 4.6
introduced support for __builtin_fma on powerpc and other
architectures with such instructions, so we can rely on that; this
patch duly makes the code use __builtin_fma for all such fused
operations.
Tested for powerpc32 (hard float).

This patch fixes the remaining part of bug 16560, spurious underflows
from exp2 of arguments close to 0 (when the result is close to 1, so
should not underflow), by just using 1+x instead of a more complicated
calculation when the argument is sufficiently small.
Tested for x86_64, x86 and mips64.

This patch optimizes strncpy for power7 for unaligned source or
destination address. The source or destination address is aligned
to doubleword and data is shifted based on the alignment and
added with the previous loaded data to be written as a doubleword.
For each load, cmpb instruction is used for faster null check.
The new optimization shows 10 to 70% of performance improvement
for longer string though it does not show big difference on string
size less than 16 due to additional checks.Hence this new algorithm
is restricted to string greater than 16.
This patch makes sincos set errno to EDOM when passed an infinity,
similarly to sin and cos.
Tested for x86_64, x86, powerpc and mips64. I don't know if the
architecture-specific implementations for ia64 and m68k might need
corresponding fixes.

Current minimum binutils supported (2.22) has ".machine altivec" support
as default, so there is no need to add a configure check for such
functionality. This patches removes the configure checks for it.
This patch cleanup some multiarch code related to memmmove
optimization. Initial IFUNC support added specialized wordcopy
symbols which turned in local IFUNC calls used by memmove default
implementation. The patch removes the internal IFUNC for wordcopy
symbols and uses local branches in the memmmove optimization instead.
This patch cleanup some multiarch code related to memmmove
optimization. Initial IFUNC support added specialized wordcopy
symbols which turned in local IFUNC calls used by memmove default
implementation.
This change by removing then and used the optimized memmove instead
for supported chips.
This patch simplify the default bcopy symbol for powerpc64 by just using
memmove instead of implementing using the default bcopy. Since the
symbol is deprecated, it trades speed by code size.
This reverts part of the previous commit to refactor pthread.h.
The refactoring must be done by having pthread.h include arch
bits headers, not the other way around. Then hppa provides the
arch bits header. For now we synchronzie again with pthread.h
and include the entire contents in the hppa copy.
Update all translations.
Update contributions in the manual.
Update installation notes with information about newest working tools.
Reconfigure using exactly autoconf 2.69.
Regenerate INSTALL.
(1) Fix warnings.
This is a bulk update to fix all the warnings that were causing
build failures with -Werror on hppa.
The most egregious problems are in dl-fptr.c which needs to be
entirely rewritten, thus I've used -Wno-error for that.
(2) Fix conformance errors.
The sysdep.c file had __syscall_error and syscall in one file
which caused conformance issues by including syscall when
__syscall_error was linked to. The fix is obviously to split
the file and use syscall.c to implement syscall.
