* Document use of CC and CFLAGS in more detail (bug 20980, bug 21234).Joseph Myers2018-02-151-7/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are some bug reports from people setting CFLAGS not including a -O option and then being confused when the build fails. This patch addresses this by documenting the proper use of CC and CFLAGS in more detail - saying what options should go where and specifying the requirement to compile with optimization. The previous text incorrectly used @var markup with CC and CFLAGS. The correct markup for environment variables is @env, but it's also the case that passing such variables explicitly on the configure command line is preferred to passing them in the environment, so this patch changes the documentation to describe passing them on the command line (and uses @code). In many cases putting options in the wrong place may in fact work, but I believe what I've specified is the correct rule for which options to put where. [BZ #20980] [BZ #21234] * manual/install.texi (Configuring and compiling): Describe passing CC and CFLAGS on configure command line, not as environment variables. Use @code markup on those variables. Specify what options go in CC and what go in CFLAGS. Note the requirement to compile with optimization. * INSTALL: Regenerated.

* Remove slow paths from powWilco Dijkstra2018-02-121-16/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the slow paths from pow. Like several other double precision math functions, pow is exactly rounded. This is not required from math functions and causes major overheads as it requires multiple fallbacks using higher precision arithmetic if a result is close to 0.5ULP. Ridiculous slowdowns of up to 100000x have been reported when the highest precision path triggers. All GLIBC math tests pass on AArch64 and x64 (with ULP of pow set to 1). The worst case error is ~0.506ULP. A simple test over a few hundred million values shows pow is 10% faster on average. This fixes BZ #13932.

* Add narrowing add functions.Joseph Myers2018-02-101-0/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the narrowing add functions from TS 18661-1 to glibc's libm: fadd, faddl, daddl, f32addf64, f32addf32x, f32xaddf64 for all configurations; f32addf64x, f32addf128, f64addf64x, f64addf128, f32xaddf64x, f32xaddf128, f64xaddf128 for configurations with _Float64x and _Float128; __nldbl_daddl for ldbl-opt. As discussed for the build infrastructure patch, tgmath.h support is deliberately deferred, and FP_FAST_* macros are not applicable without optimized function implementations. Function implementations are added for all relevant pairs of formats (including certain cases of a format and itself where more than one type has that format). The main implementations use round-to-odd, or a trivial computation in the case where both formats are the same or where the wider format is IBM long double (in which case we don't attempt to be correctly rounding). The sysdeps/ieee754/soft-fp implementations use soft-fp, and are used automatically for configurations without exceptions and rounding modes by virtue of existing Implies files. As previously discussed, optimized versions for particular architectures are possible, but not included. i386 gets a special version of f32xaddf64 to avoid problems with double rounding (similar to the existing fdim version), since this function must round just once without an intermediate rounding to long double. (No such special version is needed for any other function, because the nontrivial functions use round-to-odd, which does the intermediate computation with the rounding mode set to round-to-zero, and double rounding is OK except in round-to-nearest mode, so is OK for that intermediate round-to-zero computation.) mul and div will need slightly different special versions for i386 (using round-to-odd on long double instead of precision control) because of the possibility of inexact intermediate results in the subnormal range for double. To reduce duplication among the different function implementations, math-narrow.h gets macros CHECK_NARROW_ADD, NARROW_ADD_ROUND_TO_ODD and NARROW_ADD_TRIVIAL. In the trivial cases and for any architecture-specific optimized implementations, the overhead of the errno setting might be significant, but I think that's best handled through compiler built-in functions rather than providing separate no-errno versions in glibc (and likewise there are no __*_finite entry points for these function provided, __*_finite effectively being no-errno versions at present in most cases). Tested for x86_64 and x86, with both GCC 6 and GCC 7. Tested for mips64 (all three ABIs, both hard and soft float) and powerpc with GCC 7.

Typical performance gains is typically around 5x when measured on Sparc s7 for common values between exp(1) and exp(40). Using the glibc perf tests on sparc, sparc (nsec) x86 (nsec) old new old new max 17629 395 5173 144 min 399 54 15 13 mean 5317 200 1349 23 The extreme max times for the old (ieee754) exp are due to the multiprecision computation in the old algorithm when the true value is very near 0.5 ulp away from an value representable in double precision. The new algorithm does not take special measures for those cases. The current glibc exp perf tests overrepresent those values. Informal testing suggests approximately one in 200 cases might invoke the high cost computation. The performance advantage of the new algorithm for other values is still large but not as large as indicated by the chart above. Glibc correctness tests for exp() and expf() were run. Within the test suite 3 input values were found to cause 1 bit differences (ulp) when "FE_TONEAREST" rounding mode is set. No differences in exp() were seen for the tested values for the other rounding modes. Typical example: exp(-0x1.760cd2p+0) (-1.46113312244415283203125) new code: 2.31973271630014299393707e-01 0x1.db14cd799387ap-3 old code: 2.31973271630014271638132e-01 0x1.db14cd7993879p-3 exp = 2.31973271630014285508337 (high precision) Old delta: off by 0.49 ulp New delta: off by 0.51 ulp In addition, because ieee754_exp() is used by other routines, cexp() showed test results with very small imaginary input values where the imaginary portion of the result was off by 3 ulp when in upward rounding mode, but not in the other rounding modes. For x86, tgamma showed a few values where the ulp increased to 6 (max ulp for tgamma is 5). Sparc tgamma did not show these failures. I presume the tgamma differences are due to compiler optimization differences within the gamma function.The gamma function is known to be difficult to compute accurately. * sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/e_exp.c: Include <math-svid-compat.h> and <errno.h>.

It provides additional security hardening benefits at the cost of some memory and performance. Dynamic linker, ld.so, is a standalone program which can be loaded at any address. This patch adds a configure option, --enable-static-pie, to embed the part of ld.so in static executable to create static position independent executable (static PIE). A static PIE is similar to static executable, but can be loaded at any address without help from a dynamic linker. When --enable-static-pie is used to configure glibc, libc.a is built as PIE and all static executables, including tests, are built as static PIE. The resulting libc.a can be used together with GCC 8 or above to build static PIE with the compiler option, -static-pie. But GCC 8 isn't required to build glibc with --enable-static-pie. Only GCC with PIE support is needed. When an older GCC is used to build glibc with --enable-static-pie, proper input files are passed to linker to create static executables as static PIE, together with "-z text" to prevent dynamic relocations in read-only segments, which are not allowed in static PIE. The following changes are made for static PIE: 1. Add a new function, _dl_relocate_static_pie, to: a. Get the run-time load address. b. Read the dynamic section. c. Perform dynamic relocations. Dynamic linker also performs these steps. But static PIE doesn't load any shared objects. 2. Call _dl_relocate_static_pie at entrance of LIBC_START_MAIN in libc.a. crt1.o, which is used to create dynamic and non-PIE static executables, is updated to include a dummy _dl_relocate_static_pie. rcrt1.o is added to create static PIE, which will link in the real _dl_relocate_static_pie. grcrt1.o is also added to create static PIE with -pg. GCC 8 has been updated to support rcrt1.o and grcrt1.o for static PIE. Static PIE can work on all architectures which support PIE, provided: 1. Target must support accessing of local functions without dynamic relocations, which is needed in start.S to call __libc_start_main with function addresses of __libc_csu_init, __libc_csu_fini and main. All functions in static PIE are local functions. If PIE start.S can't reach main () defined in a shared object, the code sequence: pass address of local_main to __libc_start_main ... local_main: tail call to main via PLT can be used. 2. start.S is updated to check PIC instead SHARED for PIC code path and avoid dynamic relocation, when PIC is defined and SHARED isn't defined, to support static PIE. 3. All assembly codes are updated check PIC instead SHARED for PIC code path to avoid dynamic relocations in read-only sections. 4. All assembly codes are updated check SHARED instead PIC for static symbol name. 5. elf_machine_load_address in dl-machine.h are updated to support static PIE. 6. __brk works without TLS nor dynamic relocations in read-only section so that it can be used by __libc_setup_tls to initializes TLS in static PIE. NB: When glibc is built with GCC defaulted to PIE, libc.a is compiled with -fPIE, regardless if --enable-static-pie is used to configure glibc. When glibc is configured with --enable-static-pie, libc.a is compiled with -fPIE, regardless whether GCC defaults to PIE or not. The same libc.a can be used to build both static executable and static PIE. There is no need for separate PIE copy of libc.a. On x86-64, the normal static sln: text data bss dec hex filename 625425 8284 5456 639165 9c0bd elf/sln the static PIE sln: text data bss dec hex filename 657626 20636 5392 683654 a6e86 elf/sln The code size is increased by 5% and the binary size is increased by 7%. Linker requirements to build glibc with --enable-static-pie: 1. Linker supports --no-dynamic-linker to remove PT_INTERP segment from static PIE. 2. Linker can create working static PIE. The x86-64 linker needs the fix for https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21782 The i386 linker needs to be able to convert "movl main@GOT(%ebx), %eax" to "leal main@GOTOFF(%ebx), %eax" if main is defined locally. Binutils 2.29 or above are OK for i686 and x86-64. But linker status for other targets need to be verified. 3. Linker should resolve undefined weak symbols to 0 in static PIE: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22269 4. Many ELF backend linkers incorrectly check bfd_link_pic for TLS relocations, which should check bfd_link_executable instead: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22263 Tested on aarch64, i686 and x86-64.

* Remove --with-fp / --without-fp.Joseph Myers2017-12-121-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a configure option --without-fp that specifies that nofpu sysdeps directories should be used instead of fpu directories. For most glibc configurations, this option is of no use: either there is no valid nofpu variant of that configuration, or there are no fpu or nofpu sysdeps directories for that processor and so the option does nothing. For a few configurations, if you are using a soft-float compiler this option is required, and failing to use it generally results in compilation errors from inline asm using unavailable floating-point instructions. We're moving away from --with-cpu to configuring glibc based on how the compiler generates code, and it is natural to do so for --without-fp as well; in most cases the soft-float and hard-float ABIs are incompatible so you have no hope of building a working glibc with an inappropriately configured compiler or libgcc. This patch eliminates --without-fp, replacing it entirely by automatic configuration based on the compiler. Configurations for which this is relevant (coldfire / mips / powerpc32 / sh) define a variable with_fp_cond in their preconfigure fragments (under the same conditions under which those fragments do anything); this is a preprocessor conditional which the toplevel configure script then uses in a test to determine which sysdeps directories to use. The config.make with-fp variable remains. It's used only by powerpc (sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/Makefile) to add -mhard-float to various flags variables. For powerpc, -mcpu= options can imply use of soft-float. That could be an issue if you want to build for e.g. 476fp, but are using --with-cpu=476 because there isn't a 476fp sysdeps directory. If in future we eliminate --with-cpu and replace it entirely by testing the compiler, it would be natural at that point to eliminate that code as well (as the user should then just use a compiler defaulting to 476fp and the 476 sysdeps directory would be used automatically). Tested for x86_64, and tested with build-many-glibcs.py that installed shared libraries are unchanged by this patch. * configure.ac (--with-fp): Remove configure option. (with_fp_cond): New variable.

* Linux: Implement interfaces for memory protection keysFlorian Weimer2017-12-051-0/+232
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds system call wrappers for pkey_alloc, pkey_free, pkey_mprotect, and x86-64 implementations of pkey_get and pkey_set, which abstract over the PKRU CPU register and hide the actual number of memory protection keys supported by the CPU. pkey_mprotect with a -1 key is implemented using mprotect, so it will work even if the kernel does not support the pkey_mprotect system call. The system call wrapers use unsigned int instead of unsigned long for parameters, so that no special treatment for x32 is needed. The flags argument is currently unused, and the access rights bit mask is limited to two bits by the current PKRU register layout anyway.

* plural.c: improve reproducibilityJuro Bystricky2017-11-301-8/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Add _Float64x function aliases.Joseph Myers2017-11-271-3/+3

(It so happens the set of such platforms is exactly the same as the set of platforms with _Float128 support, although on x86_64, x86 and ia32 the _Float64x format is Intel extended rather than binary128.) The API provided corresponds exactly to that provided for _Float128, mostly coming from TS 18661-3. As these functions always alias those for another type (long double, _Float128 or both), __* function names are not provided, as in other cases of alias types. Given the preparation done in previous patches, this one just enables the feature via Makeconfig and bits/floatn.h, adds symbol versions, and updates documentation and ABI baselines. The symbol versions are present unconditionally as GLIBC_2.27 in the relevant Versions files, as it's OK for those to specify versions for functions that may not be present in some configurations; no additional complexity is needed unless in future some configuration gains support for this type that didn't have such support in 2.27. The Makeconfig additions for ia64 and x86 aren't strictly needed, as those configurations also get float64x-alias-fcts definitions from sysdeps/ieee754/float128/Makeconfig, but still seem appropriate given that _Float64x is not _Float128 for those configurations. A libm-test-ulps update for x86 is included. This is because bits/mathinline.h does not have _Float64x support added and for two functions the use of out-of-line functions results in increased ulps (ifloat64x shares ulps with ildouble / ifloat128 as appropriate). Given that we'd like generally to eliminate bits/mathinline.h optimizations, preferring to have such optimizations in GCC instead, it seems reasonable not to add such support there for new types. GCC support for _FloatN / _FloatNx built-in functions is limited, but has been improved in GCC 8, and at some point I hope the full set of libm built-in functions in GCC, and other optimizations with per-floating-type aspects, will be enabled for all _FloatN / _FloatNx types.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The _SC_LEVEL1_DCACHE_LINESIZE is reported using the contents of the ctr_el0 register, which tells us the minimum observable cache line size by userspace. This typically is the same as the L1 cache line size, but that may not always be true. It could be a higher level cache line size as long as cache cleaning and invalidation work correctly with that line size in userspace. The falkor core for example reports the L2 line size as the dcache line size in CTR_EL0 while also reporting the correct L1 dcache line size via CCSIDR_EL1. * manual/conf.texi (_SC_LEVEL1_DCACHE_LINESIZE, _SC_LEVEL1_ICACHE_LINESIZE): Document aarch64 caveat.

* Add _Float128 function aliases.Joseph Myers2017-10-181-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for *f128 function aliases on platforms where long double has the binary128 format (and thus GCC 7 provides the _Float128 type with the same ABI as long double but as a distinct type in terms of C type compatibility). This is the same API as provided in glibc 2.26 for powerpc64le / x86_64 / x86 / ia64 where _Float128 has a different format from long double, with the bulk of the API coming from TS 18661-3. All the functions alias the corresponding long double functions, and __* function names are not provided since those are only needed once for each floating-point format, not more than once for different types with the same format (so for example, -ffinite-math-only maps foof128 to __fool_finite, while type-generic macros end up calling e.g. __issignalingl for _Float128 arguments on such platforms). The preparation for this feature was done in previous patches, so this one just needs to add the relevant makefile and header definitions, and update macro definitions of libm_alias_ldouble_other_r, to turn on the feature, and update documentation and ABI baselines. Tested (a) for x86_64, (b) for aarch64, (c) with build-many-glibcs.py with both GCC 6 and GCC 7. * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/Makeconfig: New file. * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/bits/floatn.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/float128-abi.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/generic/libm-alias-ldouble.h: Include <bits/floatn.h>.

* Remove add-ons mechanism.Joseph Myers2017-10-054-48/+5

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).
