*	Update comments in ldconfig.c and dl-hwcaps.c.	Carlos O'Donell	2013-05-22	1	-2/+2
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	In dl-hwcaps.c the comment read that rounding was done to ElfW(Addr), but it's actually rounded to ElfW(Word). In ldconfig.c we make each comment a sentence and mention that the "tls" pseudo-hwcap is just for legacy installations where TLS was optional. --- 2013-05-22 Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com> * elf/ldconfig.c (is_hwcap_platform): Make comments full setences. (main): Mention "tls" pseudo-hwcap is legacy. * elf/dl-hwcaps.c (_dl_important_hwcaps): Correct rounding comment.
*	Add comments to vDSO hwcap loading process.	Carlos O'Donell	2013-05-14	1	-1/+13
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Loading of the vDSO pseudo-hwcap from the type 2 GNU note is a rather arcane and poorly documented process. Given that I had a chance to review this code today I thought I would add all of the things I had to lookup to verify the validity of the process. With a single .note.GNU the vDSO can register up to 64 flags, though in practice you are limited to 64 - _DL_FIRST_EXTRA bits which on x86 is 12 bits. The only use of this that I know of is in the Xen support in Linux where they use the 1st bit to indicate "nosegneg". I see "We use bit 1 to avoid bugs in some versions of glibc when bit 0 is used; the choice is otherwise arbitrary.", but no reference to a glibc bug anywhere. The code as-is should support bit zero, so we still have that free for future use. The kernel, glibc, and ld.so.cache must coordinate to ensure that bit values don't go too high and are used consistently. --- 2013-05-13 Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com> * elf/dl-hwcaps.c (_dl_important_hwcaps): Comment vDSO hwcap loading. * elf/ldconfig.c (is_hwcap_platform): Comment each hwcap check. (main): Comment "tls" pseudo-hwcap.
