* plural.c: improve reproducibilityJuro Bystricky2017-11-301-4/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a subtle non-determinism when building glibc. This depends on whether the glibc is built using the distibuted file intl/plural.c or built using the generated file intl/plural.c. These two files (intl/plural.c generated vs. distributed) are slightly different, hence we may end up with slightly different libraries. Originally, having "bison" installed was optional. So if "bison" was not present, we always built libraries with the distributed plural.c. If bison was installed, we *** may have *** replaced the distributed file plural.c with a new plural.c generated from plural.y. if the timestamps triggered this rule: plural.c plural.y $(BISON) $(BISONFLAGS) $@ $^ Given that timestamps are not preserved in GIT repositories, the above rule is not reliable without explicitly touching plural.c or plural.y. In other words, the rule may or may not have fired. In summary: there are two distinct sources of non-determinism: 1. Having "bison" installed or not 2. Having "bison" installed but timestamps poorly defined. This patch fixes this by requiring "bison" being installed and by always generating intl/plural.c from intl/plural.y. (This is achieved by simply removing checked-in intl/plural.c) [BZ #22432] * configure.ac (BISON): Require to be present. * configure: Regenerated. * intl/Makefile (generated): Add plural.c. [$(BISON) != no]: Make code unconditional. (plural.c): Change rule to $(objpfx)plural.c. ($(objpfx)plural.o): Depend on $(objpfx)plural.c. * intl/plural.c: Remove. * manual/install.texi (Tools for Compilation): Document bison as required. * INSTALL: Regenerated.

* Use newly built crt*.o files to build shared objects [BZ #22362]H.J. Lu2017-11-061-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When multi-lib GCC is used to build glibc, the search order of GCC driver for crt*.o is -B*/`gcc -print-multi-directory`, the installed diretory, -B*/. This patch adds multi-lib support to csu/Makefile so that -B/glibc-build-directory/csu/ will pick up the newly built crt*.o. Tested on x86-64 for i686 and x32. [BZ #22362] * Makerules (make-link-multidir): New. * config.make.in (multidir): New. * configure.ac (libc_cv_multidir): New.

* Avoid build multiarch if compiler warns about mismatched aliasAdhemerval Zanella2017-10-201-3/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GCC 8 emits an warning for alias for functions with incompatible types and it is used extensivelly for ifunc resolvers implementations in C (for instance on weak_alias with the internal symbol name to the external one or with the libc_hidden_def to set ifunc for internal usage). This breaks the build when the ifunc resolver is not defined using gcc attribute extensions (HAVE_GCC_IFUNC being 0). Although for all currently architectures that have multiarch support this compiler options is enabled for default, there is still the option where the user might try build glibc with a compiler without support for such extension. In this case this patch just disable the multiarch folder in sysdeps selections. GCC 7 and before still builds IFUNCs regardless of compiler support (although for the lack of attribute support debug information would be optimal). Checked with a build on multiarch support architectures (aarch64, arm, sparc, s390, powerpc, x86_64, i386) with multiarch enable and disable and with GCC 7 and GCC 8. * configure.ac (libc_cv_gcc_incompatbile_alias): New define: indicates whether compiler emits an warning for alias for functions with incompatible types.
* Remove add-ons mechanism.Joseph Myers2017-10-051-241/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | glibc has an add-ons mechanism to allow additional software to be integrated into the glibc build. Such add-ons may be within the glibc source tree, or outside it at a path passed to the --enable-add-ons configure option. localedata and crypt were once add-ons, distributed in separate release tarballs, but long since stopped using that mechanism. Linuxthreads was always an add-on. Ports spent some time as an add-on with separate release tarballs, then was first moved into the glibc source tree, then had its sysdeps files moved into the main sysdeps hierarchy so the add-ons mechanism was no longer used. NPTL spent some time as an add-on in the main glibc tree before stopping using the add-on mechanism. libidn used to have separate release tarballs but no longer does so, but still uses the add-ons mechanism within the glibc source tree. Various other software has supported building with the add-ons mechanism at times in the past, but I don't think any is still widely used. Add-ons involve significant, little-used complexity in the glibc build system, and make it hard to understand what the space of possible glibc configurations is. This patch removes the add-ons mechanism. libidn is now built via the Subdirs mechanism to cause any configuration using sysdeps/unix/inet to build libidn; HAVE_LIBIDN (which effectively means shared libraries are available) is now defined via sysdeps/unix/inet/configure. Various references to add-ons around the source tree are removed (in the case of maint.texi, the example list of sysdeps directories is still very out of date). Externally maintained ports should now put their files in the normal sysdeps directory structure rather than being arranged as add-ons; they probably need to change e.g. elf.h anyway, rather than actually being able to work just as a drop-in subtree. Hurd libpthread should be arranged similarly to NPTL, so some files might go in a hurd-pthreads (or similar) top-level directory in glibc, while sysdeps files should go in the normal sysdeps directory structure (possibly in hurd or hurd-pthreads subdirectories, just as there are nptl subdirectories in the sysdeps tree).

* crypt: Use NSPR header files in addition to NSS header files [BZ #17956]Guido Trentalancia2017-10-041-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | When configuring and building GNU libc using the Mozilla NSS library for cryptography (--enable-nss-crypt option), also include the NSPR header files along with the Mozilla NSS library header files. Finally, when running the check-local-headers test, ignore the Mozilla NSPR library header files (used by the Mozilla NSS library).

* Require binutils 2.25 or later to build glibc.Joseph Myers2017-06-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 internal linker errors linking elf/tst-gnu2-tls1mod.so). I don't know if any configure tests for binutils features are obsolete given the increased version requirement. Tested for x86_64. * configure.ac (AS): Require binutils 2.25 or later. (LD): Likewise. * configure: Regenerated. * sysdeps/s390/configure.ac (AS): Remove version check. * sysdeps/s390/configure: Regenerated. * sysdeps/x86_64/configure.ac (AS): Remove version check. * sysdeps/x86_64/configure: Regenerated. * manual/install.texi (Tools for Compilation): Document requirement for binutils 2.25 or later. * INSTALL: Regenerated.
* Support building glibc with gold 1.14 or above [BZ #14995]H.J. Lu2017-06-281-4/+13

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes configure require GCC 4.9 or later for building glibc, and documents that requirement. Requiring GCC 4.9 or later allows use of _Generic (as in tzcode). It would allow <stdatomic.h> and _Atomic to be used as well if desired, although we need to avoid any libatomic dependencies on any platforms. This patch is explicitly the minimum to implement a new version requirement, with any consequent cleanups of conditional code (not in installed headers or files shared with gnulib etc.) to be done separately. Tested for x86_64. * configure.ac (libc_cv_compiler_ok): Require GCC 4.9 or later. * configure: Regenerated. * manual/install.texi (Tools for Compilation): Document requirement for GCC 4.9 or later. * INSTALL: Regenerated.
* Enable tunables by defaultSiddhesh Poyarekar2017-06-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All of the major architectures are adopting tunables as a way to add tuning to the library, from hwcap_mask for aarch64 to HLE for s390 and ifunc and cache geometry for x86. Given this adoption and the fact that we don't want additional tuning knobs to be added outside of tunables, it makes sense to enable tunables by default using this trivial patch. Smoke tested on x86 to ensure that tunables code was built without specifying it as a configure flag. I have kept it as --enabled and not changed it to --disable since we want to still keep the option of different kinds of front-ends for tunables. * configure.ac(--enable-tunables): Enable by default. * configure: Regenerate. * NEWS: Mention change. * manual/install.texi (enable-tunables): Adjust documentation. * INSTALL: Regenerate.

* Fix combreloc test with BSD grepAlexey Neyman2017-03-151-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The test for "-z combreloc" fails when cross-compiling on a machine that uses BSD grep (e.g. on macos). grep complains about empty subexpression and exits with non-zero status, which is interpreted by configure as "not found". As a result, support for "-z combreloc" (HAVE_Z_COMBRELOC) is not detected, leading to link failure on SPARC.

* Enhance --enable-tunables to select tunables frontend at build timeSiddhesh Poyarekar2016-12-311-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | At the GNU Tools Cauldron 2016, the state of the current tunables patchset was considered OK with the addition of a way to select the frontend to be used for the tunables. That is, to avoid being locked in to one type of frontend initially, it should be possible to build tunables with a different frontend with something as simple as a configure switch. To that effect, this patch enhances the --enable-tunables option to accept more values than just 'yes' or 'no'. The current frontend (and default when enable-tunables is 'yes') is called 'valstring', to select the frontend where a single environment variable is set to a colon-separated value string. More such frontends can be added in future. * Makeconfig (have-tunables): Check for non-negative instead of positive. * configure.ac: Add 'valstring' as a valid value for --enable-tunables. * configure: Regenerate. * elf/Makefile (have-tunables): Check for non-negative instead of positive.

* Add framework for tunablesSiddhesh Poyarekar2016-12-311-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The tunables framework allows us to uniformly manage and expose global variables inside glibc as switches to users. tunables/README has instructions for glibc developers to add new tunables. Tunables support can be enabled by passing the --enable-tunables configure flag to the configure script. This patch only adds a framework and does not pose any limitations on how tunable values are read from the user. It also adds environment variables used in malloc behaviour tweaking to the tunables framework as a PoC of the compatibility interface. * manual/install.texi: Add --enable-tunables option. * INSTALL: Regenerate. * README.tunables: New file. * Makeconfig (CPPFLAGS): Define TOP_NAMESPACE.

* Work even with compilers which enable -fstack-protector by default [BZ #7065]Nick Alcock2016-12-261-51/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With all the machinery we just added, we can easily arrange to work even when the compiler passes in -fstack-protector automatically: all the necessary bits of glibc are always compiled with -fno-stack-protector now. So tear out the check in configure, and add appropriate calls to -fno-stack-protector in tests that need them (largely those that use -nostdlib), since we don't yet have a __stack_chk_fail that those tests can rely upon. (GCC often provides one, but we cannot rely on this, especially not when bootstrapping.) When stack protection is disabled, explicitly pass -fno-stack-protector to everything, to stop a compiler hacked to enable it from inserting calls to __stack_chk_fail via the PLT in every object file.
* Do not stack-protect ifunc resolvers [BZ #7065]Nick Alcock2016-12-261-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | When dynamically linking, ifunc resolvers are called before TLS is initialized, so they cannot be safely stack-protected. We avoid disabling stack-protection on large numbers of files by using __attribute__ ((__optimize__ ("-fno-stack-protector"))) to turn it off just for the resolvers themselves. (We provide the attribute even when statically linking, because we will later use it elsewhere too.)
* Configure support for --enable-stack-protector [BZ #7065]Nick Alcock2016-12-261-20/+50
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds =all and =strong, with obvious semantics, defaulting to off. We don't validate the value of the option yet: that's in a later patch. Nor do we use it for anything at this stage. We differentiate between 'the compiler understands -fstack-protector' and 'the user wanted -fstack-protector' so that we can pass -fno-stack-protector in appropriate places even if the user didn't want to turn on -fstack-protector for other parts. (This helps us overcome another existing limitation, that glibc doesn't work with GCCs hacked to pass in -fstack-protector by default.) We also arrange to set the STACK_PROTECTOR_LEVEL #define to a value appropriate for the stack-protection level in use for each file in particular.
* Add configure check for python programSiddhesh Poyarekar2016-12-221-1/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a configure check that looks for python3 and python in that order since we had agreed in the past to prefer python3 over python in all our code. The patch also adjusts invocations through the various Makefiles to use the set variable. * configure.ac: Check for python3 or python. * configure: Regenerated. * config.make.in (PYTHON): New variable. * benchtests/Makefile: Don't define PYTHON. (bench): Define target only if PYTHON was defined. * Rules: Don't define PYTHON. Define pretty printer targets only if PYTHON was defined.

* Bug 20918 - Building with --enable-nss-crypt fails tst-linkall-staticCarlos O'Donell2016-12-021-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some configurations may use NSS cryptographic routines but have no static library for those routines. The following changes allow glibc to be built and tested with --enable-nss-crypt, but without having a static NSS library. At a high level the change does two things: (1) Detect at configure time if static NSS crypto libraries are available. Assumes libfreebl3.a (instead of the existing Fedora libfreebl.a which is incomplete) which matches libfreebl3.so. (2) If static NSS crypto libraries are _not_ available then adjust the way in which we build tst-linkall-static. This includes excluding a reference to crypt and not linking against libcrypt.a, all of which will fail otherwise. Testing assumptions: * Static library is named libfreebl3.a (not libfreebl.a as is currently provided in Fedora), matching libfreebl3.so shared link name. Tested on x86_64 on Fedora with: (a) --enable-nss-crypt, with no static NSS library support: PASS (previous FAIL) (b) --enable-nss-crypt, with faked static NSS library support: PASS (unsupported) * Requires changing elf/Makefile to include a stub /lib64/libfreebl3.a for testing purposes. (c) --disable-nss-crypt: PASS (default) No regressions on x86_64. For details see: https://www.sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-11/msg00647.html
* configure: accept __stack_chk_fail_local for ssp support too [BZ #20662]Denis Kaganovich2016-11-151-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When glibc is compiled with gcc 6.2 that has been configured with --enable-default-pie and --enable-default-ssp, the configure script fails to detect that the compiler has ssp turned on by default when being built for i686-linux-gnu. This is because gcc is emitting __stack_chk_fail_local but the script is only looking for __stack_chk_fail. Support both. Example output: checking whether x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -m32 -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed implicitly enables -fstack-protector... no
* Add configure check to test if gcc supports attribute ifunc.Stefan Liebler2016-10-071-0/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a configure check to test if gcc supports attribute ifunc. The support can either be enabled in <gcc-src>/gcc/config.gcc for one architecture in general by setting default_gnu_indirect_function variable to yes or by configuring gcc with --enable-gnu-indirect-function. The next patch rewrites libc_ifunc macro to use gcc attribute ifunc instead of inline assembly to generate the IFUNC symbols due to false debuginfo. If gcc does not support attribute ifunc, the old approach for generating ifunc'ed symbols is used. Then the debug-information is false. Thus it is recommended to use a gcc with indirect function support (See notes in INSTALL). After this patch-series these inline assemblies for ifunc-handling are not scattered in multiple files but are used only indirect via ifunc-macros and can simply removed in libc-symbols.h in future. If glibc is configured with --enable-multi-arch and gcc does not support attribute ifunc, a configure warning is dumped! ChangeLog: * config.h.in (HAVE_GCC_IFUNC): New undef. * configure.ac: Add check if gcc supports attribute ifunc feature. * configure: Regenerated. * manual/install.texi: Add recommendation for gcc with indirect-function support. * INSTALL: Regenerated.

* Remove configure tests for visibility support.Joseph Myers2015-10-291-92/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are various configure tests for visibility support in the compiler and assember. GCC support for visibility attributes was added in GCC 3.3. I don't know what specific fix was intended by the test "for broken __attribute__((visibility())", but it was added by <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-hacker/2002-08/msg00030.html>, and GCC 3.3 appears not to have that breakage, so I suspect it was only ever in development versions before 3.3 was released. The assembler support was added in binutils 2.10. This patch removes the tests in question as obsolete. Two tests that were formerly conditional on "if test $libc_cv_visibility_attribute = yes", including the one for linker support for protected data, are now unconditional.

Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite; installed stripped shared libraries are unchanged by the patch on x86_64, while I see some slight code reordering of no significance on x86). * Makeconfig (CFLAGS): Use -std=gnu11 instead of -std=gnu99. * Makefile ($(objpfx)c++-types-check.out): Filter out -std=gnu11 instead of -std=gnu99. * configure.ac (systemtap): Test with -std=gnu11 instead of -std=gnu99. * configure: Regenerated. * math/gen-auto-libm-tests.c: Use -std=gnu11 instead of -std=gnu99 in compilation command in comment.

* Require GCC 4.7 or later to build glibc.Joseph Myers2015-10-271-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch implements a requirement of GCC 4.7 or later to build glibc. This was discussed in the thread starting at <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-08/msg00851.html>. Concerns were expressed by Mike and David. At <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-10/msg00453.html> I have provided a 14-patch series showing in outline the cleanups facilitated by this version requirement, as requested by Mike (this patch is the first in that series, with the addition of a NEWS entry). Given the absence of further concerns or alternative proposals for criteria for updates to this version requirement as requested in <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-10/msg00065.html>, I am interpreting this as "absence of sustained opposition" under Carlos's definition at <https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Consensus> and proposing this patch for inclusion in glibc. I'd like to remind people testing with 4.6 that if they move to testing with GCC 5 then it will probably be about four years before they need to update the compiler they use to test glibc again. Although on the principles of time-based updates I think a move to requiring binutils 2.23 would be reasonable, I'm not currently aware of any cleanups that would facilitate so am not proposing that at this time (but would expect to propose a move to requiring binutils 2.24 in a year's time, as that brings features such as AVX512 support that should allow some conditionals to be cleaned up). If someone thinks a move to requiring 2.23 would help clean things up for their architecture, please speak up. (And in general, I suspect there are lots of architecture-specific configure tests that could be removed on the basis of current GCC and binutils version requirements, given how I've found architecture-independent tests obsolete on the basis of version requirements going back 20 years.) Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed shared libraries are unchanged by the patch). * configure.ac (libc_cv_compiler_ok): Require GCC 4.7 or later. * configure: Regenerated. * manual/install.texi (Tools for Compilation): Document requirement for GCC 4.7 or later. * INSTALL: Regenerated.
* Remove TLS configure tests.Joseph Myers2015-10-271-30/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There seemed to be support in response to <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-10/msg00510.html> for removing configure tests that exist only to produce errors, where we expect that tool versions failing the tests would also fail the tests of minimum GCC / binutils versions. This patch removes the tests for TLS support as one instance of such tests. Since the addition of TLS emulation support in GCC 4.3, I don't think these tests would have failed even if proper TLS support (as required by glibc) was missing in that architecture's GCC back end, so any new glibc ports wanting a substantive test (if there are actual GCC or binutils versions for those architectures, with supported version numbers, missing TLS support) would have needed an architecture-specific test anyway. Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed shared libraries are unchanged by the patch). * configure.ac (libc_cv_gcc___thread): Remove configure test. (libc_cv_gcc_tls_model_attr): Likewise. * configure: Regenerated.
* Remove configure test for needing -P for .S files.Joseph Myers2015-10-271-17/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a configure test for "whether we need to use -P to assemble .S files". I think this test is long obsolete. I don't have a specific reference to a binutils change or version that obsoleted this test, but: (a) we only support GNU binutils; (b) it looks like every architecture supported by glibc has '#' as a line comment character in its gas port; (c) in any case, if the (compiler, assembler) combination in use cannot compile a .S file without special options, that would clearly be a substantially broken combination, which I don't think we need to allow for at all. The test in question was added by: Thu Jan 27 16:46:03 1994 Roland McGrath (roland@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu) * configure.in (asm-CPPFLAGS): Add new check to see if assembling a .S file loses without -P. If so, set asm-CPPFLAGS=-P in config.make. This patch removes the test and the reference to this issue in the comment on the default empty definition of asm-CPPFLAGS. (Various other settings of asm-CPPFLAGS remain in sysdeps Makefile fragments.) Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed shared libraries are unchanged by the patch). * configure.ac (libc_cv_need_minus_P): Remove configure test. * configure: Regenerated. * Makeconfig (asm-CPPFLAGS): Remove reference to -P in comment.
* Remove support for removing glibc 2.0 headers.Joseph Myers2015-10-261-16/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a configure test for the presence of glibc 2.0 headers (that were renamed / no longer installed in glibc 2.1) and associated support for removing them on "make install". Normal practice for subsequent removal / renaming of installed files has been not to do anything special about removing them; if you want installed files from an old installation removed reliably, you need to use a packaging system that tracks what files were installed by a previous glibc package (via installing in an intermediate directory with install_root). I think it's been long enough since 2.0 that it's not particularly useful to have that special logic for those old headers either; this patch removes it. Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed shared libraries are unchanged by the patch). * configure.ac (old_glibc_headers): Remove configure test. * configure: Regenerated. * config.make.in (old-glibc-headers): Remove variable. * Makefile [!$(install_root) && $(old-glibc-headers) = yes] (install): Remove dependency on remove-old-headers. (headers2_0): Remove variable. (remove-old-headers): Remove rule.
* Remove configure test for assembler .text directive.Joseph Myers2015-10-261-17/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a configure test for assembler support for the .text directive. I suppose this test must have been aimed at some non-ELF platform or non-GNU assembler. Certainly the GNU assembler has had ELF-specific architecture-independent handling for .text since version 2.2, and generic non-ELF-specific support predates that. This patch removes this test as obsolete. Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed shared libraries are unchanged by the patch). * configure.ac (libc_cv_dot_text): Remove configure test. (libc_cv_asm_set_directive): Use .text instead of ${libc_cv_dot_text} in configure test. * configure: Regenerated.
* Use the CXX compiler only if it can create dynamic and static programsFlorian Weimer2015-10-261-0/+17
| | | | | | * configure.ac (CXX): Clear the variable if the C++ toolchain does not support static linking. * configure: Regenerate.
* Remove gnu_unique_object configure test.Joseph Myers2015-10-191-17/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a configure test for assembler support for the gnu_unique_object symbol type. This support was added in binutils 2.20, so is present in all versions supported for building glibc. Thus, I think the configure test can be removed; this patch does so. Now, there is a caveat that the gas NEWS entry refers to this as a feature for GNU/Linux targets. But the condition is use of ELFOSABI_GNU or ELFOSABI_NONE. ELFOSABI_GNU covers Hurd as well as GNU/Linux (as was the case with the older ELFOSABI_LINUX name), and ELFOSABI_NONE means this is effectively OS-independent. Furthermore, I think a correct binutils port for any glibc target ought to support this feature for use with glibc; glibc supports this as an OS-independent feature (the configure test is only about glibc testcases). Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that installed shared libraries are unchanged by the patch). * configure.ac (libc_cv_asm_unique_object): Remove configure test. * configure: Regenerated. * config.h.in (HAVE_ASM_UNIQUE_OBJECT): Remove #undef. * elf/tst-unique1.c (do_test) [HAVE_ASM_UNIQUE_OBJECT]: Make code unconditional. * elf/tst-unique1mod1.c [HAVE_ASM_UNIQUE_OBJECT]: Likewise. * elf/tst-unique1mod2.c [HAVE_ASM_UNIQUE_OBJECT]: Likewise. * elf/tst-unique2.c (do_test) [HAVE_ASM_UNIQUE_OBJECT]: Likewise. (do_test) [!HAVE_ASM_UNIQUE_OBJECT]: Remove conditional code. * elf/tst-unique2mod1.c [HAVE_ASM_UNIQUE_OBJECT]: Make code unconditional. * elf/tst-unique2mod2.c [HAVE_ASM_UNIQUE_OBJECT]: Likewise.
* use -fstack-protector-strong when availableMike Frysinger2015-10-191-1/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With gcc-4.9, a new -fstack-protector-strong flag is available that is between -fstack-protector (pretty weak) and -fstack-protector-all (pretty strong) that provides good trade-offs between overhead but still providing good coverage. Update the places in glibc that use ssp to use this flag when it's available. This also kills off the indirection of hardcoding the flag name in the Makefiles and adding it based on a have-ssp boolean. Instead, the build always expands the $(stack-protector) variable to the best ssp setting. This makes the build logic a bit simpler and allows people to easily set to a diff flag like: make stack-protector=-fstack-protector-all

* Remove -fgnu89-inline configure test.Joseph Myers2015-10-191-24/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a configure test for -fgnu89-inline. This option was added in GCC 4.2, so the test is obsolete; this patch removes it. Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that installed shared libraries are unchanged by the patch). * configure.ac (libc_cv_gnu89_inline): Remove configure test. * configure: Regenerated. * config.make.in (gnu89-inline-CFLAGS): Remove variable. * Makeconfig (CFLAGS): Use -fgnu89-inline instead of $(gnu89-inline-CFLAGS).
* Remove .weak, .weakext configure tests.Joseph Myers2015-10-191-44/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are configure tests for assembler .weak support, and, as a fallback, for .weakext support. .weakext appears to be an ECOFF thing (although a few ELF targets support it as well). .weak has been supported by the GNU assembler for ELF targets since version 2.2, so given the requirement for ELF the configure tests are obsolete; this patch removes them. Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that installed shared libraries are unchanged by the patch). * configure.ac (libc_cv_asm_weak_directive): Remove configure test. (libc_cv_asm_weakext_directive): Likewise. * configure: Regenerated. * config.h.in (HAVE_ASM_WEAK_DIRECTIVE): Remove #undef. (HAVE_ASM_WEAKEXT_DIRECTIVE): Likewise. * include/libc-symbols.h [!HAVE_ASM_WEAK_DIRECTIVE && !HAVE_ASM_WEAKEXT_DIRECTIVE]: Remove #error. [HAVE_ASM_WEAKEXT_DIRECTIVE]: Remove conditional code. [!HAVE_ASM_WEAKEXT_DIRECTIVE]: Make code unconditional.
