Single thread optimization is valid if at thread creation time the
optimization can be disabled. This is in principle true for all
stream objects that user code can access (and thus needs locking),
using the same internal list as fflush(0) uses. However in glibc
open_memstream is not on that list (BZ 21735) so the optimization
has to be disabled.

There is bug report that ld.so in GLIBC 2.24 built by Binutils 2.29 will crash
on arm-linux-gnueabihf. This is confirmed, and the details is at:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21725.
As analyzed in the PR, the old code was with the assumption that assembler
won't set bit0 of thumb function address if it comes from PC-relative
instructions and the calculation can be finished during assembling. This
assumption however does not hold after PR gas/21458.

On powerpc64le, the compilation of the files related to float128 support
requires the option -mfloat128 to be passed to gcc. However, not all
possible object suffixes were covered in the Makefile. This patch uses
$(all-object-suffixes) in all remaining rules.
Tested for powerpc64le.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64le/Makefile: Use $(all-object-suffixes)
to iterate over all possible object suffixes. Add a comment
explaining the use of sysdep-CFLAGS instead of CFLAGS.
__stack_chk_fail is called on corrupted stack. Stack backtrace is very
unreliable against corrupted stack. __libc_message is changed to accept
enum __libc_message_action and call BEFORE_ABORT only if action includes
do_backtrace. __fortify_fail_abort is added to avoid backtrace from
__stack_chk_fail.

Linux 4.12 (b745fafaf70c0a98a2e1e7ac8cb14542889ceb0e) adds a new
p{read,write}v2 flag RWF_NOWAIT. This patch adds it for linux
uio-ext.h header.

The request PTRACE_SINGLEBLOCK was introduced in Linux 3.15. Thus the ptrace call
will fail on older kernels.
Thus the test is now testing PTRACE_SINGLEBLOCK with data argument pointing to a
buffer on stack which is assumed to fail. If the request would be interpreted as
PTRACE_GETREGS, then the ptrace call will not fail and the regs are written to buf.
If we run with a kernel with support for PTRACE_SINGLEBLOCK a ptrace call with
data=NULL, returns zero with no error. If we run with a kernel without support for
PTRACE_SINGLEBLOCK a ptrace call with data=NULL reports an error.
In the latter case, the test is just continuing with PTRACE_CONT.
ChangeLog:
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/s390/tst-ptrace-singleblock.c:
Support running on kernels without PTRACE_SINGLEBLOCK.

This patch increases the timeouts for some tests that I've seen timing
out on slow systems in my 2.26 release testing. (In the case of

This change forces realignment of the stack pointer in __tls_get_addr, so
that binaries compiled by GCCs older than GCC 4.9:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58066
continue to work even if vector instructions are used in glibc which
require the ABI stack realignment.
__tls_get_addr_slow is added to handle the slow paths in the default
implementation of__tls_get_addr in elf/dl-tls.c. The new __tls_get_addr
calls __tls_get_addr_slow after realigning the stack. Internal calls
within ld.so go directly to the default implementation of __tls_get_addr
because they do not need stack realignment.

Locking overhead can be significant in some stdio operations
that are common in single threaded applications.
This patch adds the _IO_FLAGS2_NEED_LOCK flag to indicate if
an _IO_FILE object needs to be locked and some of the stdio
functions just jump to their _unlocked variant when not. The
flag is set on all _IO_FILE objects when the first thread is
created. A new GLIBC_PRIVATE libc symbol, _IO_enable_locks,
was added to do this from libpthread.
The optimization can be applied to more stdio functions,
currently it is only applied to single flag check or single
non-wide-char standard operations. The flag should probably
be never set for files with _IO_USER_LOCK, but that's just a
further optimization, not a correctness requirement.
The optimization is valid in a single thread because stdio
operations are non-as-safe (so lock state is not observable
from a signal handler) and stdio locks are recursive (so lock
state is not observable via deadlock). The optimization is not
valid if a thread may be created while an stdio lock is taken
and thus it should be disabled if any user code may run during
an stdio operation (interposed malloc, printf hooks, etc).
This makes the optimization more complicated for some stdio
operations (e.g. printf), but those are bigger and thus less
important to optimize so this patch does not try to do that.

A dot-less host name without an /etc/resolv.conf file caused an

This commit enhances the stub resolver to reload the configuration
in the per-thread _res object if the /etc/resolv.conf file has
changed. The resolver checks whether the application has modified
_res and will not overwrite the _res object in that case.
The struct resolv_context mechanism is used to check the
configuration file only once per name lookup.
This commit adds the remaining unchanging members (which are loaded
from /etc/resolv.conf) to struct resolv_conf.
The extended name server list is currently not used by the stub
resolver. The switch depends on a cleanup: The _u._ext.nssocks
array stores just a single socket, and needs to be replaced with
a single socket value.
(The compatibility gethostname implementation does not use the
extended addres sort list, either. Updating the compat code is
not worthwhile.)
This change uses the extended resolver state in struct resolv_conf to
store the search list. If applications have not patched the _res
object directly, this extended search list will be used by the stub
resolver during name resolution.
This change provides additional resolver configuration state which
is not exposed through the _res ABI. It reuses the existing
initstamp field in the supposedly-private part of _res. Some effort
is undertaken to avoid memory safety issues introduced by applications
which directly patch the _res object.
With this commit, only the initstamp field is moved into struct
resolv_conf. Additional members will be added later, eventually
migrating the entire resolver configuration.
struct resolv_context objects provide a temporary resolver context
which does not change during a name lookup operation. Only when the
outmost context is created, the stub resolver configuration is
verified to be current (at present, only against previous res_init
calls). Subsequent attempts to obtain the context will reuse the
result of the initial verification operation.
struct resolv_context can also be extended in the future to store
data which needs to be deallocated during thread cancellation.
posix/sched_cpucount.c assumes that size of __cpu_mask == size of long,
which is incorrect for x32. This patch uses __builtin_popcount, which
is availabe in GCC 4.9, in posix/sched_cpucount.c.
Tested on i686, x86-64 and x32 with multi-arch disabled.
[BZ #21696]
* posix/sched_cpucount.c: Don't include <limits.h>.
(__sched_cpucount): Use __builtin_popcount.
In math/math.h, __MATH_TG will expand signbit to __builtin_signbit*,
e.g.: __builtin_signbitf128, before GCC 6. However, there has never
been a __builtin_signbitf128 in GCC and the type-generic builtin is
only available since GCC 6. For older GCC, this patch defines
__builtin_signbitf128 to __signbitf128, so that the internal function
is used instead of the non-existent builtin.
This patch also changes the implementation of __signbitf128, because
it was reusing the implementation of __signbitl from ldbl-128, which
calls __builtin_signbitl. Using the long double version of the
builtin is not correct on machines where _Float128 is ABI-distinct
from long double (i.e.: ia64, powerpc64le, x86, x86_84). The new
implementation does not rely on builtins when being built with GCC
versions older than 6.0.
The new code does not currently affect powerpc64le builds, because
only GCC 6.2 fulfills the requirements from configure. It might
affect powerpc64le builds if those requirements are backported to
older versions of the compiler. The new code affects x86_64 builds,
since glibc is supposed to build correctly with older versions of GCC.
Tested for powerpc64le and x86_64.

Add a new tunable (glibc.tune.cpu) to override CPU identification on
aarch64. This is useful in two cases: one where it is desirable to

where the underlying kernel does not support emulation of MRS to get
the MIDR of the CPU.

GCC 7 changed the definition of max_align_t on i386:
https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=commitdiff;h=9b5c49ef97e63cc63f1ffa13baf771368105ebe2
As a result, glibc malloc no longer returns memory blocks which are as
aligned as max_align_t requires.
This causes malloc/tst-malloc-thread-fail to fail with an error like this
one:
error: allocation function 0, size 144 not aligned to 16
This patch moves the MALLOC_ALIGNMENT definition to <malloc-alignment.h>
and increases the malloc alignment to 16 for i386.

This patch improves the default posix implementation of posix_spawn{p}
and align with Linux one. The main idea is to fix some issues already
fixed in Linux code, and deprecated vfork internal usage (source of
various bug reports). In a short:
- It moves POSIX_SPAWN_USEVFORK usage and sets it a no-op. Since
the process that actually spawn the new process do not share
memory with parent (with vfork), it fixes BZ#14750 for this
implementation.
- It uses a pipe to correctly obtain the return upon failure
of execution (BZ#18433).
- It correctly enable/disable asynchronous cancellation (checked
on ptl/tst-exec5.c).
- It correctly disable/enable signal handling.
Using this version instead of Linux shows only one regression,
posix/tst-spawn3, because of pipe2 usage which increase total
number of file descriptor.

This patch adds tgmath.h support for _Float128, so eliminating the
awkward caveat in NEWS about the type not being supported there. This
does inevitably increase the size of macro expansions (which grows
particularly fast when you have nested calls to tgmath.h macros), but
only when _Float128 is supported and the declarations of _Float128
interfaces are visible; otherwise the expansions are unchanged.
Tested for x86_64 and arm.

As a GNU extension, for _GNU_SOURCE glibc's complex.h provides a
clog10 function and tgmath.h supports complex arguments to the log10
macro. However, tgmath.h uses __clog10 not clog10 in defining the
macro.
There is no namespace reason (ignoring the block-scope namespace
issues that would apply equally to *every* function called by tgmath.h
macros) for using __clog10 here, since this is only for _GNU_SOURCE so
clog10 is always visible when this macro definition is used.
Furthermore, __clog10f128 is not exported, so supporting _Float128 in
tgmath.h implies using clog10 not __clog10 there. (__clog10 and
clog10 aren't used in libstdc++ either, although that library would
have a good case for using the __clog10 reserved-namespace export: the
standard C++ library includes log10 of a complex number.) This patch
duly changes the header to use clog10, and enables tests of the macro
for complex arguments.

The tgmath.h totalorder and totalordermag macros wrongly return a

The tgmath.h macros for function with integer return types generate

As noted in bug 21607, NO_LONG_DOUBLE conditionals in libm tests are
no longer effective. For most this is harmless - they were only
present because of long double functions not being declared with _LIBC
defined, and _LIBC is no longer defined for building most tests. For
the few where this is actually relevant to the test, testing
LDBL_MANT_DIG > DBL_MANT_DIG is more appropriate as that limits the
test to public APIs. This patch fixes the tests accordingly.

This patch adds a more thorough test of tgmath.h macros, verifying
both the return type and the function called for all the cases of
valid argument types. (Cases with current problems - I've just filed
four bugs - are disabled or omitted pending fixing those problems.)
The test uses a Python generator (works with both Python 2 and 3) to
generate a C file which is then built and run as a test in the usual
way (and that C file includes its own dummy definitions of libm
functions similar to existing tgmath.h tests). The motivation is to
make it easier to add tests of tgmath.h for _Float128 when adding
tgmath.h support for that type; the _FloatN / _FloatNx support is
present in the script, but disabled until the tgmath.h support is
written.
Tested for x86_64, and for arm to check things in the long double =
double case. (In that case, it's OK to call either double or long
double functions when the selected type is double or long double, as
long as the return type of the macro is exactly correct.)

This patch implements a requirement of binutils >= 2.25 (up from 2.22)
to build glibc. Tests for 2.24 or later on x86_64 and s390 are
removed. It was already the case, as indicated by buildbot results,
that 2.24 was too old for building tests for 32-bit x86 (produced

This patch fixes various miscellaneous namespace issues in
sys/ucontext.h headers.
Some struct tags are removed where the structs also have *_t typedef
names, while other struct tags without such names are renamed to start
__; the changes are noted in NEWS as they can affect C++ name mangling
(although there seems to be little if any external use of these types,
at least based on checking codesearch.debian.net). For powerpc,
pointers to struct pt_regs (not defined in this header) are changed to
point to struct __ctx(pt_regs), so in the __USE_MISC case those struct
fields continue to point to the existing struct pt_regs type for
maximum compatibility, while when that's a namespace issue they point
to a struct __pt_regs type which is always an incomplete struct.

loadtest.c:76:3: error: macro expands to multiple statements [-Werror=multistatement-macros]
for (map = MAPS; map != NULL; map = map->l_next) \
^
loadtest.c:165:2: note: in expansion of macro 'OUT'
OUT;
^~~
loadtest.c:164:7: note: some parts of macro expansion are not guarded by this 'if' clause
if (debug)
^~
This seems like a genuine bug, although fairly harmless; it means the
fflush call in the OUT macro is unconditional instead of being inside
the conditional as presumably intended. This patch makes this macro
use do { } while (0) to avoid the problem.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite), and with build-many-glibcs.py for
aarch64-linux-gnu with GCC mainline.
* elf/loadtest.c (OUT): Define using do { } while (0).
Building with current GCC mainline fails with:
strftime_l.c: In function '__strftime_internal':

In fact this particular instance is harmless; the code looks like:
if (modifier == L_('O'))
goto bad_format;
else
DO_NUMBER (1, tp->tm_year + TM_YEAR_BASE);
and because of the goto, it doesn't matter that part of the expansion
isn't under the "else" conditional. But it's also clearly bad style
to rely on that. This patch changes DO_NUMBER and DO_NUMBER_SPACEPAD
to use do { } while (0) to avoid such problems.
Tested (full testsuite) for x86_64 (GCC 6), and with
build-many-glibcs.py with GCC mainline, in conjunction with my libgcc
patch <https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2017-06/msg02032.html>.
* time/strftime_l.c (DO_NUMBER): Define using do { } while (0).
(DO_NUMBER_SPACEPAD): Likewise.
This patch provides an optimised implementation of memchr using NEON
instructions to improve its performance, especially with longer search regions.
This gave an improvement in performance against the Thumb2+DSP optimised code,
with more significant gains for larger inputs. The NEON code also wins in cases
where the input is small (less than 8 bytes) by defaulting to a simple
byte-by-byte search. This avoids the overhead imposed by filling two quadword
registers from memory.
* sysdeps/arm/armv7/multiarch/Makefile: Add memchr_neon to
sysdep_routines.
* sysdeps/arm/armv7/multiarch/ifunc-impl-list.c: Add define for
__memchr_neon.
Add ifunc definitions for __memchr_neon and __memchr_noneon.
* sysdeps/arm/armv7/multiarch/memchr.S: New file.
* sysdeps/arm/armv7/multiarch/memchr_impl.S: Likewise.
* sysdeps/arm/armv7/multiarch/memchr_neon.S: Likewise.
Testing done: Ran regression tests for arm-none-linux-gnueabihf as well as a
full toolchain bootstrap. Benchmark tests were ran on ARMv7-A and ARMv8-A
hardware targets.
This patch adds an ifunc variant to use the cu instruction on arch12 CPUs.
This new ifunc variant can be built if binutils support z13 vector
instructions. At runtime, HWCAP_S390_VXE decides if we can use the
cu21 instruction.
ChangeLog:
* sysdeps/s390/utf8-utf16-z9.c (__to_utf8_loop_vx_cu):
Use vector and cu21 instruction.
* sysdeps/s390/multiarch/utf8-utf16-z9.c:
Add __to_utf8_loop_vx_cu in ifunc resolver.
This patch adds an ifunc variant to use the cu instruction on arch12 CPUs.
This new ifunc variant can be built if binutils support z13 vector
instructions. At runtime, HWCAP_S390_VXE decides if we can use the
cu24 instruction.
ChangeLog:
* sysdeps/s390/utf16-utf32-z9.c (__from_utf16_loop_vx_cu):
Use vector and cu24 instruction.
* sysdeps/s390/multiarch/utf16-utf32-z9.c:
Add __from_utf16_loop_vx_cu in ifunc resolver.
This patch adds an ifunc variant to use the cu instruction on arch12 CPUs.
This new ifunc variant can be built if binutils support z13 vector
instructions. At runtime, HWCAP_S390_VXE decides if we can use the
cu42 instruction.
ChangeLog:
* sysdeps/s390/utf16-utf32-z9.c (__to_utf16_loop_vx_cu):
Use vector and cu42 instruction.
* sysdeps/s390/multiarch/utf16-utf32-z9.c:

in ifunc resolver.
The new hwcap values indicate support for:
- Vector packed decimal facility
- Vector enhancements facility 1
- Guarded storage facility
Note: arch12 is NOT the official name of the new CPU.
It refers to the edition number of the Principle of Operations manual.
ChangeLog:
* sysdeps/s390/dl-procinfo.c (_dl_s390_cap_flags):
Add vxd, vxe, gs flag.
* sysdeps/s390/dl-procinfo.h: Add HWCAP_S390_VXD, HWCAP_S390_VXE,
HWCAP_S390_GS capability.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/s390/bits/hwcap.h
(HWCAP_S390_VXD, HWCAP_S390_VXE, HWCAP_S390_GS): Define.
Check the first 32 bytes before checking size when size >= 32 bytes
to avoid unnecessary branch if the difference is in the first 32 bytes.
Replace vpmovmskb/subl/jnz with vptest/jnc.
On Haswell, the new version is as fast as the previous one. On Skylake,
the new version is a little bit faster.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/memcmp-avx2-movbe.S (MEMCMP): Check
the first 32 bytes before checking size when size >= 32 bytes.
Replace vpmovmskb/subl/jnz with vptest/jnc.
The testcases elf/tst-tls1-static and elf/tst-tls2-static
are failing on s390 if gcc is configured with --enable-default-pie.
According to binutils, there are only four valid cases for IE -> LE transition:
lg %rx,(0,%ry) -> sllg %rx,%ry,0
lg %rx,(%ry,0) -> sllg %rx,%ry,0
lg %rx,(%ry,%r12) -> sllg %rx,%ry,0
lg %rx,(%r12,%ry) -> sllg %rx,%ry,0
Thus I've adjusted the TLS_IE macro in s390 tls-macros.h files in PIC case
in order to use r12 for the address of global offset table.
The adjusted macro definition is not used if gcc is not configured with
--enable-default-pie.
ChangeLog:
* sysdeps/s390/s390-32/tls-macros.h (TLS_IE): Use r12 for GOT address.
* sysdeps/s390/s390-64/tls-macros.h (TLS_IE): Likewise.
Some Linux kernels have very aggressive ICMP rate limiting on the
loopback interface. This commit introduces a minimal echoing DNS server
inside the network namespace, so that there is no need for ICMP error
messages anymore.
