* stdlib: Reinstate stable mergesort implementation on qsortAdhemerval Zanella2024-01-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The mergesort removal from qsort implementation (commit 03bf8357e8) had the side-effect of making sorting nonstable. Although neither POSIX nor C standard specify that qsort should be stable, it seems that it has become an instance of Hyrum's law where multiple programs expect it. Also, the resulting introsort implementation is not faster than the previous mergesort (which makes the change even less appealing). This patch restores the previous mergesort implementation, with the exception of machinery that checks the resulting allocation against the _SC_PHYS_PAGES (it only adds complexity and the heuristic not always make sense depending on the system configuration and load). The alloca usage was replaced with a fixed-size buffer. For the fallback mechanism, the implementation uses heapsort. It is simpler than quicksort, and it does not suffer from adversarial inputs. With memory overcommit, it should be rarely triggered. The drawback is mergesort requires O(n) extra space, and since it is allocated with malloc the function is AS-signal-unsafe. It should be feasible to change it to use mmap, although I am not sure how urgent it is. The heapsort is also nonstable, so programs that require a stable sort would still be subject to this latent issue. The tst-qsort5 is removed since it will not create quicksort adversarial inputs with the current qsort_r implementation. Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and aarch64-linux-gnu.

* stdlib: Remove use of mergesort on qsort (BZ 21719)Adhemerval Zanella2023-10-311-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes the mergesort optimization on qsort implementation and uses the introsort instead. The mergesort implementation has some issues: - It is as-safe only for certain types sizes (if total size is less than 1 KB with large element sizes also forcing memory allocation) which contradicts the function documentation. Although not required by the C standard, it is preferable and doable to have an O(1) space implementation. - The malloc for certain element size and element number adds arbitrary latency (might even be worse if malloc is interposed). - To avoid trigger swap from memory allocation the implementation relies on system information that might be virtualized (for instance VMs with overcommit memory) which might lead to potentially use of swap even if system advertise more memory than actually has. The check also have the downside of issuing syscalls where none is expected (although only once per execution). - The mergesort is suboptimal on an already sorted array (BZ#21719). The introsort implementation is already optimized to use constant extra space (due to the limit of total number of elements from maximum VM size) and thus can be used to avoid the malloc usage issues. Resulting performance is slower due the usage of qsort, specially in the worst-case scenario (partialy or sorted arrays) and due the fact mergesort uses a slight improved swap operations. This change also renders the BZ#21719 fix unrequired (since it is meant to fix the sorted input performance degradation for mergesort). The manual is also updated to indicate the function is now async-cancel safe. Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu. Reviewed-by: Noah Goldstein <goldstein.w.n@gmail.com>
* Use STRFMON_LDBL_IS_DBL instead of __ldbl_is_dbl.Zack Weinberg2018-11-161-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On platforms where long double used to have the same format as double, but later switched to a different format (alpha, s390, sparc, and powerpc), accessing the older behavior is possible and it happens via __nldbl_* functions (not on the API, but accessible from header redirection and from compat symbols). These functions write to the global flag __ldbl_is_dbl, which tells other functions that long double variables should be handled as double. This patch takes the first step towards removing this global flag and creates __vstrfmon_l_internal, which takes an explicit flags parameter. This change arguably makes the generated code slightly worse on architectures where __ldbl_is_dbl is never true; right now, on those architectures, it's a compile-time constant; after this change, the compiler could theoretically prove that __vstrfmon_l_internal was never called with a nonzero flags argument, but it would probably need LTO to do it. This is not performance critical code and I tend to think that the maintainability benefits of removing action at a distance are worth it. However, we _could_ wrap the runtime flag check with a macro that was defined to ignore its argument and always return false on architectures where __ldbl_is_dbl is never true, if people think the codegen benefits are important. Tested for powerpc and powerpc64le.
* manual: Touch up documentation for strftime and ALTMON_* constants.Rical Jasan2018-01-221-9/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | "%OB" is considered a conversion specifier ("B" is the format specifier), and the list of format specifiers for months in the description of the optional "O" modifier was incomplete. A cross-reference from the ALTMON_* constants to the strftime section is also provided. Lastly, some grammatical fixes (commas) are made and paragraphs refactored (rewrapped). * manual/locale.texi (ALTMON_1, ALTMON_2, ALTMON_3, ALTMON_4, ALTMON_5, ALTMON_6, ALTMON_7, ALTMON_8, ALTMON_9, ALTMON_10, ALTMON_11, ALTMON_12): Improve documentation. * manual/time.texi (strftime): Likewise.

* manual: Replace summary.awk with summary.pl.Rical Jasan2017-06-151-26/+13

If invalid @standards syntax is detected, summary.pl will fail, reporting all errors. Failure and error reporting is disabled for now, however, since much of the manual is still incomplete wrt. header and standards annotations. Note that the sorting order of the Summary has changed; summary.pl respects the locale, like summary.awk did, but the use of LC_ALL=C is introduced in the Makefile. Other notable deviations are improved detection of the annotated elements' names, which are used for sorting, and improved detection of the @node used to reference into the manual. The most noticeable difference in the rendered Summary is that entries may now contain multiple lines, one for each header and standard combination. summary.pl accepts a `--help' option, which details the expected syntax of @standards. If errors are reported, the user is directed to this feature for further information. * manual/Makefile: Generate summary.texi with summary.pl. Force use of the C locale.
