* benchtests: Add random memset benchmarkWilco Dijkstra2024-08-072-0/+186
| | | | | | | | | Add a new randomized memset test similar to bench-random-memcpy. Instead of repeating the same call to memset over and over again, it times a large number of different inputs. The distribution of memset length and alignment is based on SPEC2017 (length up to 4096 and alignment up to 64). Reviewed-by: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>
* Benchtests: Remove broken walk benchmarksWilco Dijkstra2024-06-216-581/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The walk benchmarks don't measure anything useful - memory is not initialized properly so doing a single walk in 32MB just measures reading the 4KB zero page for reads and clear_page overhead for writes. The memset variants don't even manage to do a walk in the 32MB region due to using incorrect pointer increments... Neither is it clear why it is walking backwards since this won't confuse modern prefetchers. If you fix the benchmark and print the bandwidth, the results are identical for all sizes larger than ~1KB since it is just testing memory bandwidth of a single 32MB block. This case is already tested by the large benchmark, so overall it doesn't seem useful to keep these. Reviewed-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com>
* Modernize and fix doc’s “Date and Time” (BZ 31876)Paul Eggert2024-06-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | POSIX.1-2024 (now official) specifies tm_gmtoff and tm_zone. This is a good time to update the manual’s “Date and Time” chapter so I went through it, fixed some outdated stuff that had been in there for decades, and improved it to match POSIX.1-2024 better and to clarify some implementation-defined behavior. Glibc already conforms to POSIX.1-2024 in these matters, so this is merely a documentation change. * manual/examples/strftim.c: Use snprintf instead of now-deprecated function asctime. Check for localtime failure. Simplify by using puts instead of fputs. Prefer ‘buf, sizeof buf’ to less-obvious ‘buffer, SIZE’. * manual/examples/timespec_subtract.c: Modernize to use struct timespec not struct timeval, and rename from timeval_subtract.c. All uses changed. Check for overflow. Do not check for negative return value, which ought to be OK since negative time_t is OK. Use GNU indenting style. * manual/time.texi: Document CLOCKS_PER_SEC, TIME_UTC, timespec_get, timespec_getres, strftime_l. Document the storage lifetime of tm_zone and of tzname. Caution against use of tzname, timezone and daylight, saying that these variables have unspecified values when TZ is geographic. This is what glibc actually does (contrary to what the manual said before this patch), and POSIX is planned to say the same thing <https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1816>. Also say that directly accessing the variables is not thread-safe. Say that localtime_r and ctime_r don’t necessarily set time zone state. Similarly, in the tzset documentation, say that it is called by ctime, localtime, mktime, strftime, not that it is called by all time conversion functions that depend on the time zone. Say that tm_isdst is useful mostly just for mktime, and that other uses should prefer tm_gmtoff and tm_zone instead. Do not say that strftime ignores tm_gmtoff and tm_zone, because it doesn’t do that. Document what gmtime does to tm_gmtoff and tm_zone. Say that the asctime, asctime_r, ctime, and ctime_r are now deprecated and/or obsolescent, and that behavior is undefined if the year is < 1000 or > 9999. Document strftime before these now-obsolescent functions, so that readers see the useful function first. Coin the terms “geographical format” and “proleptic format” for the two main formats of TZ settings, to simplify exposition. Use this wording consistently. Update top-level proleptic syntax to match POSIX.1-2024, which glibc already implements. Document the angle-bracket quoted forms of time zone abbreviations in proleptic TZ. Say that time zone abbreviations can contain only ASCII alphanumerics, ‘+’, and ‘-’. Document what happens if the proleptic form specifies a DST abbreviation and offset but omits the rules. POSIX says this is implementation-defined so we need to document it. Although this documentation mentions ‘posixrules’ tersely, we need to rethink ‘posixrules’ since I think it stops working after 2038. Clarify wording about TZ settings beginning with ‘;’. Say that timegm is in ISO C (as of C23). Say that POSIX.1-2024 removed gettimeofday. Say that tm_gmtoff and tm_zone are extensions to ISO C, which is clearer than saying they are invisible in a struct ISO C enviroment, and gives us more wiggle room if we want to make them visible in strict ISO C, something that ISO C allows. Drop mention of old standards like POSIX.1c and POSIX.2-1992 in the text when the history is so old that it’s no longer useful in a general-purpose manual. Define Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), time zone, time zone ruleset, and POSIX Epoch, and use these phrases more consistently. Improve TZ examples to show more variety, and to reflect current practice and timestamps. Remove obsolete example about Argentina. Add an example for Ireland. Don’t rely on GCC extensions when explaining ctime_r. Do not say that difftime produces the mathematically correct result, since it might be inexact. For clock_t don’t say “as in the example above” when there is no such example, and don’t say that casting to double works “properly and consistently no matter what”, as it suffers from rounding and overflow. Don’t say broken-down time is not useful for calculations; it’s merely painful. Say that UTC is not defined before 1960. Rename Time Zone Functions to Time Zone State. All uses changed. Update Internet RFC 822 → 5322, 1305 → 5905. Drop specific years of ISO 8601 as they don’t matter. Minor style changes: @code{"..."} → @t{"..."} to avoid overquoting in info files, @code → @env for environment variables, Daylight Saving Time → daylight saving time, white space → whitespace, prime meridian → Prime Meridian.

| | | | | | | | | | Add a simple benchmark to measure the overhead of internal libc locks in the random() implementation on both single- and multi-threaded cases.

* Enable libmvec support for AArch64Joe Ramsay2023-05-031-0/+88
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch enables libmvec on AArch64. The proposed change is mainly implementing build infrastructure to add the new routines to ABI, tests and benchmarks. I have demonstrated how this all fits together by adding implementations for vector cos, in both single and double precision, targeting both Advanced SIMD and SVE. The implementations of the routines themselves are just loops over the scalar routine from libm for now, as we are more concerned with getting the plumbing right at this point. We plan to contribute vector routines from the Arm Optimized Routines repo that are compliant with requirements described in the libmvec wiki. Building libmvec requires minimum GCC 10 for SVE ACLE. To avoid raising the minimum GCC by such a big jump, we allow users to disable libmvec if their compiler is too old. Note that at this point users have to manually call the vector math functions. This seems to be acceptable to some downstream users. Reviewed-by: Szabolcs Nagy <szabolcs.nagy@arm.com>

This commit only adds the barrier for x86, although it should be either no change or a win for any architecture. Unrolling further started to induce slowdowns for sizes [0, 4] but can help the loop so if larger sizes are the target further unrolling can be beneficial.
