Fix profil_counter namespace (bug 17725).
On ARM, where profil_counter is not static, it is brought in by references to various standard functions, as noted in <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-11/msg00890.html>, although it is not a standard function itself. I don't know if this also causes test failures on SPARC, although I see no reason for it not to do so. This patch fixes this namespace issue. profil_counter is renamed to __profil_counter and made a weak alias on ARM and SPARC. Because of the uses in profil.c / sprofil.c it seems simplest to make the rename globally, including on the other architectures for which profil_counter was static and so the change is of no substance. The variant names profil_counter_* used in sprofil.c are also renamed to start with __ so that undesired function names do not get exported in static libc. As I noted in bug 17726, profil_counter should probably be a compat symbol on ARM and SPARC, so it wouldn't exist at all in static libc even as a weak alias. Since defining a compat symbol still requires an internal name as a target of an alias, this patch still seems reasonable as an intermediate step towards that goal: it wouldn't be possible for the function simply to be static profil_counter on ARM and SPARC with profil_counter also being the exported compat symbol name, so profil.c / sprofil.c would still need to be prepared to call the function under another name (here, __profil_counter). Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that stripped installed shared libraries are unchanged by the patch) and ARM (ABI and linknamespace tests - this patch reduces the number of linknamespace failures I see on ARM from 227 to 5, the residue being math.h failures for fe* functions and for j0l/j1n/jnl/y0l/y1l/ynl aliases). 2014-12-17 Joseph Myers <joseph@codesourcery.com> [BZ #17725] * sysdeps/generic/profil-counter.h (profil_counter): Rename to __profil_counter. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/hppa/profil-counter.h (profil_counter): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/profil-counter.h (profil_counter): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ia64/profil-counter.h (profil_counter): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/s390/s390-32/profil-counter.h (profil_counter): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/s390/s390-64/profil-counter.h (profil_counter): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sh/profil-counter.h (profil_counter): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tile/profil-counter.h (profil_counter): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/profil-counter.h (profil_counter): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/profil-counter.h (profil_counter): Likewise.
