* This patch improves strncpy performance by using strnlen/memcpy rather than ↵Wilco Dijkstra2015-08-051-0/+5
| | | | | | | a byte loop. Performance on bench-strncpy is 1.9-2.1x faster on average. I tried several variations, and using a tailcall and calling memset conditionally gave the best overall results.
* Improve feenableexcept performance - avoid an unnecessary FPCR read in caseWilco Dijkstra2015-08-051-0/+5
| | | | the FPCR does not change. Also improve the logic of the return value.
* Improve fesetenv performance by avoiding unnecessary FPSR/FPCR reads/writes.Wilco Dijkstra2015-08-051-0/+5
| | | | | | It uses the same logic as the ARM version. The common case removes 1 FPSR and 1 FPCR read. For FE_DFL_ENV and FE_NOMASK_ENV a FPCR read is avoided in case the FPCR does not change.
* Also check dead->data[category] != NULLH.J. Lu2015-08-051-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | _nl_load_locale_from_archive (int category, const char **namep) has for (cnt = 0; cnt < __LC_LAST; ++cnt) if (cnt != LC_ALL) { lia->data[cnt] = _nl_intern_locale_data (cnt, results[cnt].addr, results[cnt].len); if (__glibc_likely (lia->data[cnt] != NULL)) { ... } } lia->data[cnt] can be NULL, which happens to en_US.UTF-8 with LC_COLLATE. But this won't happen if glibc is configured with --enable-hardcoded-path-in-tests. We should also check dead->data[category] != NULL. * locale/loadarchive.c (_nl_archive_subfreeres): Also check dead->data[category] != NULL.
* Fix powf (close to -1, large) (bug 18647).Joseph Myers2015-08-051-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The flt-32 implementation of powf wrongly uses x-1 instead of |x|-1 when computing log (x) for the case where |x| is close to 1 and y is large. This patch fixes the logic accordingly. Relevant tests existed for x close to 1, and corresponding tests are added for x close to -1, as well as for some new variant cases. Tested for x86_64 and x86. [BZ #18647] * sysdeps/ieee754/flt-32/e_powf.c (__ieee754_powf): For large y and |x| close to 1, use absolute value of x when computing log. * math/auto-libm-test-in: Add more tests of pow. * math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated.
* arm: Assembly implementation cleanupAdhemerval Zanella2015-08-051-0/+6
| | | | | | | This patch removes arm assembly implementation of mmap and mmap64. The new implementation used is the wordsize-32 generic linux one. Tested on armhf.
* localedata: remove timezone information [BZ #18525]Marko Myllynen2015-08-051-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | as discussed in the thread starting at https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-06/msg00098.html it looks like the best options is to remove locale timezone information from locales which currently provide it (in incomplete or incorrect fashion) rather than to start duplicating tzdata info in glibc.
* Updated __nonnull annotations for wcscat, wcsncat, wcscmp and wcsncmp [BZ ↵Daniel Marjamäki2015-08-051-0/+8
| | | | | | | | #18265] This patch adds __nonnull annotations for wcscat, wcsncat, wcscmp and wcsncmp. These added annotations match the annoations for strcat, strncat, strcmp, strncmp in glibc.
* test-skeleton: add usage informationMike Frysinger2015-08-051-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | I keep trying to run tests with --help and then remembering that does nothing when it throws an error. That means I have to dig into the source when I want to refer to flags or env vars and re-read a good amount of code to find the nested locations. Make this all much more user friendly with a usage screen that gets printed out whenever an unknown option is specified.
* mmap64: fix undef warningsMike Frysinger2015-08-051-0/+5
| | | | | The only target that defines this is m68k, so move the existing fallback define up to avoid warnings on other systems.
* nptl: fix set-but-unused warning w/_STACK_GROWS_UPMike Frysinger2015-08-051-0/+6
| | | | | | On arches that set _STACK_GROWS_UP, the stacktop variable is declared and set, but never actually used. Refactor the code a bit so that the variable is only declared/set under _STACK_GROWS_DOWN settings.

* Updated translations for 2.22.Carlos O'Donell2015-08-011-0/+9

* Deprecate the use of regexp.hZack Weinberg2015-08-011-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | <regexp.h> (not to be confused with <regex.h>) is an obsolete and frankly horrible regular expression-matching API. It was part of SVID but was withdrawn in Issue 5 (for reference, we're on Issue 7 now). It doesn't do anything you can't do with <regex.h>, and using it involves defining a bunch of macros before including the header. Moreover, the code in regexp.h that uses those macros has been buggy since its creation (in 1996) and no one has noticed, which indicates to me that there are no users. (Specifically, RETURN() is used in a whole bunch of cases where it should have been ERROR().) The header is given a warning and marked deprecated for 2.22. See: https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-07/msg00862.html and https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-07/msg00871.html.

* Prevent runtime fail of SSE vector math tests on non SSE4.1 machine.Andrew Senkevich2015-07-301-0/+8
| | | | | | | | [BZ #18740] * sysdeps/x86_64/fpu/Makefile (double-vlen2-arch-ext-cflags, float-vlen4-arch-ext-cflags): Removed. * math/Makefile (CFLAGS-test-double-vlen2-wrappers.c, CFLAGS-test-float-vlen4-wrappers.c): Likewise.
* hppa: add bz entry for pthreadtypes.h fixMike Frysinger2015-07-301-0/+1

* hppa: fix pthreadtypes.h namespace failuresMike Frysinger2015-07-301-0/+6
| | | | | The conform tests flag the "aligned" symbol used inside the attributes, so rename it to __aligned__ like other headers.
* hppa: Remove custom lowlevellock.h.Torvald Riegel2015-07-301-0/+4
| | | | | This untested patch removes the custom lowlevellock.h on hppa. It seems to contain an implementation equivalent to the generic lowlevellock.h.
* hppa: sigaction.h: change sa_flags to an intMike Frysinger2015-07-291-0/+16
| | | | | This fixes the conform test for the sigaction.h header and makes it match all the other arches.
* hppa: rewrite INLINE_SYSCALLMike Frysinger2015-07-291-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The semi-recent SYSCALL_CANCEL macro imposes a slight nuance on the implementation of INLINE_SYSCALL: the nr argument cannot be expanded directly but must be passed on to another macro which may expand it. Most arches don't notice because INLINE_SYSCALL is defined in terms of INTERNAL_SYSCALL which has the additional layer of expansion, but on hppa, it was attempting to expand it directly. That causes build errors like so: ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sigsuspend.c: In function '__sigsuspend': ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sigsuspend.c:31:62: error: implicit declaration of function 'LOAD_ARGS___SYSCALL_NARGS' ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sigsuspend.c:31:304: error: called object 'LOAD_ARGS___SYSCALL_NARGS(set, 8)' is not a function So rewrite hppa's INLINE_SYSCALL to use INTERNAL_SYSCALL like other arches do. This is also a nice clean up as the two macros had quite a bit of duplicated logic.
* Extend local PLT reference checkH.J. Lu2015-07-291-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | On x86, linker in binutils 2.26 and newer consolidates R_*_JUMP_SLOT with R_*_GLOB_DAT relocation against the same symbol. This patch extends local PLT reference check to support alternate relocations. [BZ #18078] * scripts/check-localplt.awk: Support alternate relocations. * scripts/localplt.awk: Also check relocations in DT_RELA/DT_REL sections. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/localplt.data: Mark free and malloc entries with + REL R_386_GLOB_DAT. * sysdeps/x86_64/localplt.data: New file.
* Added runtime check for AVX vector math tests.Andrew Senkevich2015-07-291-0/+7
| | | | | | | [BZ #18731] * sysdeps/x86_64/fpu/math-tests-arch.h: Added AVX runtime check. * sysdeps/x86_64/fpu/test-double-vlen4.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/x86_64/fpu/test-float-vlen8.c: Likewise.
* ia64: drop __tls_get_addr from expected ld.so plt usageMike Frysinger2015-07-281-0/+4
| | | | | | This file was updated with an educated guess as to the symbols needed, but on ia64, we don't have __tls_get_addr calls, so drop it from the list.
* ia64: atomic.h: fix atomic_exchange_and_add 64bit handlingMike Frysinger2015-07-281-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Way back in 2005 the atomic_exchange_and_add function was cleaned up to avoid the explicit size checking and instead let gcc handle things itself. Unfortunately that change ended up leaving beyond a cast to int, even when the incoming value was a long. This has flown under the radar for a long time due to the function not being heavily used in the tree (especially as a full 64bit field), but a recent change to semaphores made some nptl tests fail reliably. This is due to the code packing two 32bit values into one 64bit variable (where the high 32bits contained the number of waiters), and then the whole variable being atomically updated between threads. On ia64, that meant we never atomically updated the count, so sometimes the sem_post would not wake up the waiters.
* ia64: clean up old kernel headers cruftMike Frysinger2015-07-281-0/+5
| | | | | | This define made more sense in the pre-sanitized kernel headers days, but since we require kernel versions that are sanitized, we don't need this hack anymore.
* pwd.h: revert __nonnull markings on putpwent [BZ #18641]Mike Frysinger2015-07-271-0/+5
| | | | | | This function actually checks for NULL arguments and the API has been tenatively documented as using EINVAL in that case. We can debate leaving it this way, but it should be done after the pending release.
* Mark bug 2981 (elf/tst-audit* fail on MIPS) as fixed.Joseph Myers2015-07-271-0/+2
| | | | | | Changes in support of -fno-plt also cause the elf/tst-audit* tests to start passing on MIPS. This patch duly marks the relevant bug as fixed in ChangeLog and NEWS.

* Use IE model for static variables in libc.so, libpthread.so and rtldSiddhesh Poyarekar2015-07-241-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The recently introduced TLS variables in the thread-local destructor implementation (__cxa_thread_atexit_impl) used the default GD access model, resulting in a call to __tls_get_addr. This causes a deadlock with recent changes to the way TLS is initialized because DTV allocations are delayed and hence despite knowing the offset to the variable inside its TLS block, the thread has to take the global rtld lock to safely update the TLS offset. This causes deadlocks when a thread is instantiated and joined inside a destructor of a dlopen'd DSO. The correct long term fix is to somehow not take the lock, but that will need a lot deeper change set to alter the way in which the big rtld lock is used. Instead, this patch just eliminates the call to __tls_get_addr for the thread-local variables inside libc.so, libpthread.so and rtld by building all of their units with -mtls-model=initial-exec. There were concerns that the static storage for TLS is limited and hence we should not be using it. Additionally, dynamically loaded modules may result in libc.so looking for this static storage pretty late in static binaries. Both concerns are valid when using TLSDESC since that is where one may attempt to allocate a TLS block from static storage for even those variables that are not IE. They're not very strong arguments for the traditional TLS model though, since it assumes that the static storage would be used sparingly and definitely not by default. Hence, for now this would only theoretically affect ARM architectures. The impact is hence limited to statically linked binaries that dlopen modules that in turn load libc.so, all that on arm hardware. It seems like a small enough impact to justify fixing the larger problem that currently affects everything everywhere. This still does not solve the original problem completely. That is, it is still possible to deadlock on the big rtld lock with a small tweak to the test case attached to this patch. That problem is however not a regression in 2.22 and hence could be tackled as a separate project. The test case is picked up as is from Alex's patch. This change has been tested to verify that it does not cause any issues on x86_64. ChangeLog: [BZ #18457] * nptl/Makefile (tests): New test case tst-join7. (modules-names): New test case module tst-join7mod. * nptl/tst-join7.c: New file. * nptl/tst-join7mod.c: New file. * Makeconfig (tls-model): Pass -ftls-model=initial-exec for all translation units in libc.so, libpthread.so and rtld.

* conform/linknamespace: whitelist matherrf/matherrlMike Frysinger2015-07-231-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | glibc supports the deprecated matherr hook for math error reporting. The conform tests take this into consideration and whitelist this symbol when running linknamespace tests. The ia64 libm code has long provided two additional hooks in this space: matherrf (for floats) matherrl (for long doubles) Which causes the conform tests to fail with chains that all look like: [initial] __atan2 -> [libm.a(e_atan2.o)] __libm_error_support -> [libm.a(libm_error.o)] matherrf We can't (losslessly) redirect existing usage of these funcs to matherr because the structure passed in is different -- matherr uses a struct with doubles while matherrf/matherrl use floats and long doubles respectively. Plus, this has been part of the exported ABI since glibc-2.2.3, so it doesn't feel right to change it so late. Until we get around to obsoleting matherr entirely, whitelist these two additional ia64 symbols.
* ia64: sigaction.h: fix sa_flags orderingMike Frysinger2015-07-231-0/+5
| | | | | | | Since ia64 is little endian, sa_flags has to come before the padding when splitting it from 64bits to 32bits. Reported-by: Joseph Myers <joseph@codesourcery.com>
* Also use l_tls_dtor_count to decide on object unload (BZ #18657)Siddhesh Poyarekar2015-07-231-0/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an TLS destructor is registered, we set the DF_1_NODELETE flag to signal that the object should not be destroyed. We then clear the DF_1_NODELETE flag when all destructors are called, which is wrong - the flag could have been set by other means too. This patch replaces this use of the flag by using l_tls_dtor_count directly to determine whether it is safe to unload the object. This change has the added advantage of eliminating the lock taking when calling the destructors, which could result in a deadlock. The patch also fixes the test case tst-tls-atexit - it was making an invalid dlclose call, which would just return an error silently. I have also added a detailed note on concurrency which also aims to justify why I chose the semantics I chose for accesses to l_tls_dtor_count. Thanks to Torvald for his help in getting me started on this and (literally) teaching my how to approach the problem. Change verified on x86_64; the test suite does not show any regressions due to the patch. ChangeLog: [BZ #18657] * elf/dl-close.c (_dl_close_worker): Don't unload DSO if there are pending TLS destructor calls. * include/link.h (struct link_map): Add concurrency note for L_TLS_DTOR_COUNT. * stdlib/cxa_thread_atexit_impl.c (__cxa_thread_atexit_impl): Don't touch the link map flag. Atomically increment l_tls_dtor_count. (__call_tls_dtors): Atomically decrement l_tls_dtor_count. Avoid taking the load lock and don't touch the link map flag. * stdlib/tst-tls-atexit-nodelete.c: New test case. * stdlib/Makefile (tests): Use it. * stdlib/tst-tls-atexit.c (do_test): dlopen tst-tls-atexit-lib.so again before dlclose. Add conditionals to allow tst-tls-atexit-nodelete test case to use it.
* ia64: msg.h: fix msg_qnum/msg_qbytes typesMike Frysinger2015-07-211-0/+9
| | | | | These two fields have dedicated types, so change the ia64 header to match all the other arches. This fixes the conform test for msg.h.
