* Fix expanding STB_GNU_UNIQUE hash table.Andreas Schwab2009-08-071-0/+5
| | | | | An invalid symbol name pointer was entered into the hash table while enlarging it.
* Properly count number of logical processors on Intel CPUs.H.J. Lu2009-08-071-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The meaning of the 25-14 bits in EAX returned from cpuid with EAX = 4 has been changed from "the maximum number of threads sharing the cache" to "the maximum number of addressable IDs for logical processors sharing the cache" if cpuid takes EAX = 11. We need to use results from both EAX = 4 and EAX = 11 to get the number of threads sharing the cache. The 25-14 bits in EAX on Core i7 is 15 although the number of logical processors is 8. Here is a white paper on this: http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-64-architecture-processor-topology-enumeration/ This patch correctly counts number of logical processors on Intel CPUs with EAX = 11 support on cpuid. Tested on Dinnington, Core i7 and Nehalem EX/EP. It also fixed Pentium Ds workaround since EBX may not have the right value returned from cpuid with EAX = 1.
* Fix sed expression in TAGS command.Andreas Schwab2009-08-071-0/+5
| | | | | The backslash-newline pair is interpreted as the beginning of an address regex.
* Add x86 SSE strlen.Ulrich Drepper2009-08-041-0/+6
|
* Add x86 32-bit SSE4.2 string functions.H.J. Lu2009-08-041-0/+24
| | | | | | This patch adds 32bit SSE4.2 string functions. It uses -16L instead of 0xfffffffffffffff0L, which works for both 32bit and 64bit long. Tested on 32bit Core i7 and Core 2.
* x86/x86-64 now needs <cpuid.h> from gcc.Ulrich Drepper2009-08-021-0/+4
|
* Optimize x86 and x86-64 ____longjmp_chk for Linux.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-311-0/+4
|
* Fix ____longjmp_chk on x86-64.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-311-0/+5
| | | | | After a recent change to fix CFI in ____longjmp_chk the test of the ss_flags used the wrong memory location.
* Support multiarch for i686.H.J. Lu2009-07-311-0/+30
| | | | | | This patch adds multiarch support when configured for i686. I modified some x86-64 functions to support 32bit. I will contribute 32bit SSE string and memory functions later.
* Fix obstack* on i?86Jakub Jelinek2009-07-311-0/+4
| | | | | | obstack calls several callbacks, so on i?86 it'd better be compiled without -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2, otherwise the callbacks are called with misaligned stack.
* Add sigstack handling to Linux ____longjmp_chk on i386.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-301-0/+6
| | | | All other i386 ports need to provide their own versions.
* ____longjmp_chk is now OS-specific.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-301-0/+5
| | | | | | | We use sigaltstack internally which on some systems is a syscall and should be used as such. Move the x86-64 version to the Linux specific directory and create in its place a file which always causes compile errors.
* Add test case for ____longjmp_chk vs signal stacks.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-301-0/+3
|
* Fix x86-64 ____longjmp_chk to handle signal stacks.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-301-0/+5
| | | | | | The simple test previously used might trigger if the longjmp jumps from the signal stack to the normal stack. We now explicitly test for this case.
* Stop backtrace when we make no more progress.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-301-0/+5
|
* Add support for x86-64 fma instruction.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-291-0/+14
| | | | Use it to implement fma and fmaf, if possible.
* Fix x86-64 TCB alignment for future processor versions.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-291-2/+1
|
* Improve CFI in x86-64 ld.so trampoline code.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-291-0/+5
|
* Properly restore AVX registers on x86-64.H.J. Lu2009-07-291-0/+4
| | | | | tst-audit4 and tst-audit5 fail under AVX emulator due to je instead of jne. This patch fixes them.
* Preserve SSE registers in runtime relocations on x86-64.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-291-0/+15
| | | | | | | | | | SSE registers are used for passing parameters and must be preserved in runtime relocations. This is inside ld.so enforced through the tests in tst-xmmymm.sh. But the malloc routines used after startup come from libc.so and can be arbitrarily complex. It's overkill to save the SSE registers all the time because of that. These calls are rare. Instead we save them on demand. The new infrastructure put in place in this patch makes this possible and efficient.
* Fix bookkeeping of static TLS block for TLS_TCB_AT_TP architectures.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-281-0/+9
|
* Refine testing for xmm/ymm register use in x86-64 ld.so.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-271-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | The test now takes the callgraph into account. Only code called during runtime relocation is affected by the limitation. We now determine the affected object files as closely as possible from the outside. This allowed to remove some the specializations for some of the string functions as they are only used in other code paths.
* Define and implement RES_USE_DNSSEC option in resolver.Adam Tkac2009-07-271-0/+10
|
* Fix STB_GNU_UNIQUE handling for > 30 unique symbols.Jakub Jelinek2009-07-271-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | There were several issues when the initial 31 entries hashtab filled up. size * 3 <= tab->n_elements is always false, table can't have more elements than its size. I assume from libiberty/hashtab.c this meant to be check for 3/4 full. Even after fixing that, _dl_higher_prime_number (31) apparently returns 31, only _dl_higher_prime_number (32) returns 61. And, size variable wasn't updated during reallocation, which means during reallocation the insertion of the new entry was done into a wrong spot. All this lead to a hang in ld.so, because a search with n_elements 31 size 31 wouldn't ever terminate.
* No need for special strcmp for rtld.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-271-1/+0
|
* Make sure no code in ld.so uses xmm/ymm registers on x86-64.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-261-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces a test to make sure no function modifies the xmm/ymm registers. With the exception of the auditing functions. The test is probably too pessimistic. All code linked into ld.so is checked. Perhaps at some point the callgraph starting from _dl_fixup and _dl_profile_fixup is checked and we can start using faster SSE-using functions in parts of ld.so.
* Add missing ChangeLog entry for last checkin.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-261-0/+20
|
* Compatibility of signalfd/eventfd with older kernels.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-261-0/+8
|
* Handle SERVFAIL, NOTIMP, REFUSED replies from DNS server better.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-261-0/+4
| | | | | When doing IPv4+6 lookups we have to pass up the error record from send_dg.
* Define NT_GNU_GOLD_VERSION.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-261-0/+4
|
* Some some optimizations for x86-64 strcmp.H.J. Lu2009-07-251-0/+3
|
* Handle missing NSS modules and those without callbacks.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-251-0/+4
| | | | | getaddrinfo didn't update the status variable in that round of the loop if no callback was used.
* Optimize x86-64 SSE4.2 strcmp.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-251-0/+5
| | | | | The file contained some code which was never used. Don't compile it in.
* Don't automatically use /lib/modules/* headers.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-241-0/+6
| | | | | Ever since the /usr/include/linux headers got cleaned up this isn't necessary. Meanwhile everybody should have these cleanups.
* S/390: Hardware iconv modules.Andreas Krebbel2009-07-241-0/+16
|
* Avoid cpuid instructions in cache info discovery.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-231-0/+4
| | | | When multiarch is enabled we have this information stored. Use it.
* Add more cache descriptors for L3 caches on x86 and x86-64.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-231-0/+4
| | | | | The most recent AP 485 describes a few more cache descriptors for L3 caches with 24-way associativity.
* Perform test for Arom x86-64 in central place and handle it.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-231-0/+5
| | | | | | | There will be more than one function which, in multiarch mode, wants to use SSSE3. We should not test in each of them for Atoms with slow SSSE3. Instead, disable the SSSE3 bit in the startup code for such machines.
* Avoid warnings in test cases.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-231-0/+5
| | | | | | The posix/tst-rfc3484* test cases caused warnings in newer gccs because the unused but copied sin_zero part of sockaddr_in wasn't explicitly initialized.
* Make include/unistd.h suitable for C++ test cases.Duncan Simpson2009-07-231-0/+4
|
* Preserve stack alignment in i386 makecontext.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-231-0/+3
|
* Some more fixes for the unique symbol handling.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-231-0/+3
| | | | | The hash value can be zero, so we need a different test for empty slots. And unify the way we prevent a DSO from being unloaded.
* Handle unloading of DSO with a unique symbol definition.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-231-0/+11
|
* Minor cleanups in x86-64 strstr.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-211-0/+5
|
* Better check for optimization in new x86-64 strstr/strcasestr.Ulrich Drepper2009-07-201-0/+6
|
* SSE4.2 strstr/strcasestr for x86-64.H.J. Lu2009-07-201-0/+17
| | | | | This patch implements SSE4.2 strstr/strcasestr, using Knuth-Morris-Pratt string searching algorithm.
