For some large arguments, the dbl-64 implementation of remainder gives
zero results with the wrong sign, resulting from a subtraction that is
mathematically correct but does not guarantee that a zero result has
the sign of the first argument to remainder. This patch adds an
appropriate check for this case, similar to other implementations of
remainder in the case of equality, and adds tests of remainder on
inputs already used to test remquo.
Tested for x86_64 and x86.

nextafter and nexttoward fail to set errno on overflow and underflow.
This patch makes them do so in cases that should include all the cases

so glibc's goals do not require errno setting).

The ldbl-128 version of log1pl raises a spurious "invalid" exception
for a -qNaN argument. This patch fixes this by making the initial
check for infinities and NaNs handle arguments of both signs in such a
way that NaNs result in a NaN being returned (quietly if the input NaN
was quiet) while +Inf results in +Inf being returned and -Inf results
in a qNaN being returned with "invalid" exception raised.

There are configure tests for the cpuid.h header for x86 / x86_64.

There are various configure tests for visibility support in the
compiler and assember.
GCC support for visibility attributes was added in GCC 3.3. I don't
know what specific fix was intended by the test "for broken
__attribute__((visibility())", but it was added by
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-hacker/2002-08/msg00030.html>, and GCC
3.3 appears not to have that breakage, so I suspect it was only ever
in development versions before 3.3 was released. The assembler
support was added in binutils 2.10.
This patch removes the tests in question as obsolete. Two tests that
were formerly conditional on "if test $libc_cv_visibility_attribute =
yes", including the one for linker support for protected data, are now
unconditional.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed shared

Now that we build with -std=gnu11 and can rely on a compiler providing
max_align_t in <stddef.h>, we no longer need our own version
libc_max_align_t. This patch removes it and replaces the single user
with a use of max_align_t.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed stripped
shared libraries are unchanged by the patch for x86_64; for x86, I see
some code reordering of no significance).
* include/libc-internal.h (libc_max_align_t): Remove typedef.

<libc-internal.h>.
(struct scratch_buffer): Use max_align_t instead of
libc_max_align_t.
In this case, extend_alloca is used to work around the lack of
deallocation on scope exit. A VLA is automatically deallocated in this
way, so it is the more fitting approach.
To implement this, it is necessary to eliminate the goto. In addition,
this change eliminates the trivially-true assert; the assert is always
skipped if nloaded > 0.
* elf/dl-fini.c (_dl_fini): Rewrite to use variable-length array
instead of extend_alloca. Change control flow to avoid a goto.
Remove assert which is trivially always true.
fenv_t should include architecture-specific floating-point modes and
status flags. i386 and x86_64 fesetenv limit which bits they use from
the x87 status and control words, when using saved state, and limit
which parts of the state they set to fixed values, when using
FE_DFL_ENV / FE_NOMASK_ENV. The following should be included but are
excluded in at least some cases: status and masking for the "denormal
operand" exception (which isn't part of FE_ALL_EXCEPT); precision
control (explicitly mentioned in Annex F as something that counts as
part of the floating-point environment); MXCSR FZ and DAZ bits (for
FE_DFL_ENV and FE_NOMASK_ENV). This patch arranges for this extra
state to be handled by fesetenv (and thereby by feupdateenv, which
calls fesetenv).
(Note that glibc functions using floating point are not generally
expected to work correctly with non-default values of this state,
especially precision control, but it is still logically part of the
floating-point environment and should be handled as such by fesetenv.
Changes to the state relating to subnormals ought generally to work
with libm functions when the arguments aren't subnormal and neither
are the expected results; that's a consequence of functions avoiding
spurious internal underflows.)
A question arising from this is whether FE_NOMASK_ENV should or should
not mask the "denormal operand" exception. I decided it should mask
that exception. This is the status quo - previously that exception
could only be unmasked by direct manipulation of control registers
(possibly via <fpu_control.h>). In addition, it means that use of
FE_NOMASK_ENV leaves a floating-point environment the same as could be
obtained by fesetenv (FE_DFL_ENV); feenableexcept (FE_ALL_EXCEPT);,
rather than an environment in which an exception is unmasked that
could only be masked again by using fesetenv with FE_DFL_ENV (or a
previously saved environment) - this exception not being usable with
other <fenv.h> functions because it's outside FE_ALL_EXCEPT.
Tested for x86_64 and x86.

libm-test.inc has a macro BUILD_COMPLEX to construct a complex number
with given real and imaginary parts while allowing properly for signed
zeroes, infinities and NaNs (which don't work properly with a simple

types), using assignment to __real__ and __imag__ parts of the number.

The i386 and x86_64 versions of fesetenv, when called with FE_DFL_ENV
or FE_NOMASK_ENV as argument, do not clear SSE exceptions raised in
MXCSR. These arguments should, like other fenv_t values, represent
the whole of the floating-point state, so such exceptions should be

MIPS16 atomics used __sync_* with GCC before 4.7, which as noted in

One common case of __GNUC_PREREQ (4, 7) conditionals is use of

removes such conditionals.
(There remain several older uses of -Wno-uninitialized in makefiles
that still need to be converted to diagnostic control pragmas if the
issue is still present with current sources and supported GCC
versions, and it's likely that in most cases those pragmas also will
end up controlling -Wmaybe-uninitialized.)

statement.
Now that GCC 4.7 or later is required to build glibc, this patch
removes three conform/ test XFAILs that related to missing C11 support
in GCC 4.6.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (conform/ tests).
* conform/Makefile (test-xfail-ISO11/complex.h/conform): Remove
variable.
(test-xfail-ISO11/stdalign.h/conform): Likewise.
(test-xfail-ISO11/stdnoreturn.h/conform): Likewise.
Now that GCC 4.7 or later is required to build glibc, this patch makes
the conformance tests use -std=c11 for C11 tests instead of -std=c1x
-D_ISOC11_SOURCE.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (conform/ tests).
* conform/GlibcConform.pm ($CFLAGS{"ISO11"}): Use -std=c11 instead
of -std=c1x -D_ISOC11_SOURCE.
This patch implements a requirement of GCC 4.7 or later to build
glibc.
This was discussed in the thread starting at
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-08/msg00851.html>.
Concerns were expressed by Mike and David. At
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-10/msg00453.html> I have
provided a 14-patch series showing in outline the cleanups facilitated
by this version requirement, as requested by Mike (this patch is the
first in that series, with the addition of a NEWS entry). Given the
absence of further concerns or alternative proposals for criteria for
updates to this version requirement as requested in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-10/msg00065.html>, I am
interpreting this as "absence of sustained opposition" under Carlos's
definition at <https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Consensus> and
proposing this patch for inclusion in glibc. I'd like to remind
people testing with 4.6 that if they move to testing with GCC 5 then
it will probably be about four years before they need to update the
compiler they use to test glibc again.
Although on the principles of time-based updates I think a move to
requiring binutils 2.23 would be reasonable, I'm not currently aware
of any cleanups that would facilitate so am not proposing that at this
time (but would expect to propose a move to requiring binutils 2.24 in
a year's time, as that brings features such as AVX512 support that
should allow some conditionals to be cleaned up). If someone thinks a
move to requiring 2.23 would help clean things up for their
architecture, please speak up. (And in general, I suspect there are
lots of architecture-specific configure tests that could be removed on
the basis of current GCC and binutils version requirements, given how
I've found architecture-independent tests obsolete on the basis of
version requirements going back 20 years.)
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed shared
libraries are unchanged by the patch).
* configure.ac (libc_cv_compiler_ok): Require GCC 4.7 or later.
* configure: Regenerated.
* manual/install.texi (Tools for Compilation): Document
requirement for GCC 4.7 or later.
* INSTALL: Regenerated.
There seemed to be support in response to
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-10/msg00510.html> for
removing configure tests that exist only to produce errors, where we
expect that tool versions failing the tests would also fail the tests
of minimum GCC / binutils versions.
This patch removes the tests for TLS support as one instance of such
tests. Since the addition of TLS emulation support in GCC 4.3, I
don't think these tests would have failed even if proper TLS support
(as required by glibc) was missing in that architecture's GCC back
end, so any new glibc ports wanting a substantive test (if there are
actual GCC or binutils versions for those architectures, with
supported version numbers, missing TLS support) would have needed an
architecture-specific test anyway.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed shared
libraries are unchanged by the patch).
* configure.ac (libc_cv_gcc___thread): Remove configure test.
(libc_cv_gcc_tls_model_attr): Likewise.
* configure: Regenerated.
There is a configure test for "whether we need to use -P to assemble
.S files".
I think this test is long obsolete. I don't have a specific reference
to a binutils change or version that obsoleted this test, but: (a) we
only support GNU binutils; (b) it looks like every architecture
supported by glibc has '#' as a line comment character in its gas
port; (c) in any case, if the (compiler, assembler) combination in use
cannot compile a .S file without special options, that would clearly
be a substantially broken combination, which I don't think we need to
allow for at all.
The test in question was added by:
Thu Jan 27 16:46:03 1994 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu)
* configure.in (asm-CPPFLAGS): Add new check to see if assembling
a .S file loses without -P. If so, set asm-CPPFLAGS=-P in config.make.
This patch removes the test and the reference to this issue in the
comment on the default empty definition of asm-CPPFLAGS. (Various
other settings of asm-CPPFLAGS remain in sysdeps Makefile fragments.)
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed shared
libraries are unchanged by the patch).
* configure.ac (libc_cv_need_minus_P): Remove configure test.
* configure: Regenerated.
* Makeconfig (asm-CPPFLAGS): Remove reference to -P in comment.
There is a configure test for the presence of glibc 2.0 headers (that
were renamed / no longer installed in glibc 2.1) and associated
support for removing them on "make install".
Normal practice for subsequent removal / renaming of installed files
has been not to do anything special about removing them; if you want
installed files from an old installation removed reliably, you need to
use a packaging system that tracks what files were installed by a
previous glibc package (via installing in an intermediate directory
with install_root). I think it's been long enough since 2.0 that it's
not particularly useful to have that special logic for those old
headers either; this patch removes it.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed shared
libraries are unchanged by the patch).
* configure.ac (old_glibc_headers): Remove configure test.
* configure: Regenerated.
* config.make.in (old-glibc-headers): Remove variable.
* Makefile [!$(install_root) && $(old-glibc-headers) = yes]
(install): Remove dependency on remove-old-headers.
(headers2_0): Remove variable.
(remove-old-headers): Remove rule.
There is a configure test for assembler support for the .text
directive.
I suppose this test must have been aimed at some non-ELF platform or
non-GNU assembler. Certainly the GNU assembler has had ELF-specific
architecture-independent handling for .text since version 2.2, and
generic non-ELF-specific support predates that.
This patch removes this test as obsolete.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed shared
libraries are unchanged by the patch).
* configure.ac (libc_cv_dot_text): Remove configure test.
(libc_cv_asm_set_directive): Use .text instead of
${libc_cv_dot_text} in configure test.
* configure: Regenerated.
libm-test.inc has special-case code treating errors of up to 0.5 ulp
as allowed (for functions that aren't exactly determined) even if no
such errors appeared in libm-test-ulps. This only applies to avoid
errors for individual function calls, not for the overall check of
ulps at the end of testing a function, resulting in confusing output
of the form:
testing double (without inline functions)
Maximal error of `log_upward'
is : 1 ulp
accepted: 0 ulp
with no report of what testcase produced that error. This patch
removes the special case, so that instead you get:
testing double (without inline functions)
Failure: Test: log_upward (0x1.0000000000001p+0)
Result:
is: 2.2204460492503129e-16 0x1.fffffffffffffp-53
should be: 2.2204460492503131e-16 0x1.0000000000000p-52
difference: 2.4651903288156619e-32 0x1.0000000000000p-105
ulp : 0.5000
max.ulp : 0.0000
Maximal error of `log_upward'
is : 1 ulp
accepted: 0 ulp
(for formats other than ldbl-128ibm, 0.5 ulp errors only occur in
unusual cases such as this where the correctly rounded result is a
power of 2 and the computed result is just below it). This should not
affect which cases result in the test failing, just ensure that if it
fails then some failure for an individual function call was reported.
Tested for x86_64 and x86.
* math/libm-test.inc (check_float_internal): Do not special-case
errors up to 0.5 ulp.
j1 and jn can underflow for small arguments, but fail to set errno
when underflowing to 0. This patch fixes them to set errno in that
case.
Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 and powerpc.
[BZ #18611]
* sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/e_j1.c (__ieee754_j1): Set errno and
avoid excess range and precision on underflow.

The implementations of nearbyint functions using x87 floating point
(i386 all versions, x86_64 long double only) use the fclex
instruction, which clears any exceptions that were raised before the
function was called. These functions must not clear exceptions that
were raised before they were called.
This patch fixes these functions to save and restore the whole
floating-point environment (fnstenv / fldenv) as the way of avoiding
raising "inexact" (recall that there isn't an x87 instruction for
loading just the status word, so the whole environment has to be saved
and loaded instead - the code already saved and loaded the control
word, which is now obtained from the saved environment after this
patch, to disable traps on "inexact"). In the case of the long double
functions, any "invalid" exception from frndint (applied to a
signaling NaN) needs merging into the saved state; this issue doesn't
apply to the float and double functions because that exception would
have been raised when the argument is loaded, before the environment
is saved.
[BZ #15491]
* sysdeps/i386/fpu/s_nearbyint.S (__nearbyint): Save and restore
floating-point environment instead of clearing all exceptions.
* sysdeps/i386/fpu/s_nearbyintf.S (__nearbyintf): Likewise.
* sysdeps/i386/fpu/s_nearbyintl.S (__nearbyintl): Likewise,
merging in "invalid" exceptions from frndint.
* sysdeps/x86_64/fpu/s_nearbyintl.S (__nearbyintl): Likewise.
* math/test-nearbyint-except.c: New file.
* math/Makefile (tests): Add test-nearbyint-except.
Wilco fixed this tilegx bug in commit fe8c2b33ae ("Since we
now inline isinf, isnan and isfinite in math.h, replace uses
of __isinf_ns(l/f) with isinf, and remove the unused inlines
__isinf_ns(l/f), __isnan(f) and __finite(f).")
I verified that reverting math/s_cprojf.c back to using the
sysdeps/ieee754/flt-32/math_private.h version of __isinf_nsf()
instead of isinf() brings back the bug on tilegx.
Since GLIBC requires a minimum 2.6.32 kernel, the patch cleanups
the mips code to assume __NR_sync_file_range and the powerpc one
to either assume __NR_sync_file_range2 or __NR_sync_file_range.
Checked on powerpc64le and build for mips (ABIO32, ABIN32, and ABI64).
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc64/sync_file_range.c
(__NR_sync_file_range2): Assume it is always defined.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips32/sync_file_range.c
(__NR_sync_file_range): Assume it is always defined.
This patch makes the io/tst-fcntl test create its temporary file in
do_prepare not do_test, so that add_temp_name is called in the parent
on the correct file name, as requested in the thread starting at
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-10/msg00552.html>. I don't
see any reason in this test that opening the file in the parent should
be problematic.
This patch is explicitly not exhaustive for such issues; other tests
still call add_temp_file in the child. The general issue is noted at
<https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Development_Todo/Master#Use_test-skeleton.c>.
Tested for x86_64 (that this test still passes and no longer leaves a
file behind in /tmp).
* io/tst-fcntl.c (fd): New static variable.
(do_prepare): Open temporary file here....
(do_test): ...not here.
