This patch optimizes the performance of memcpy/memmove for A64FX [1]
which implements ARMv8-A SVE and has L1 64KB cache per core and L2 8MB
cache per NUMA node.
The performance optimization makes use of Scalable Vector Register
with several techniques such as loop unrolling, memory access
alignment, cache zero fill, and software pipelining.
SVE assembler code for memcpy/memmove is implemented as Vector Length
Agnostic code so theoretically it can be run on any SOC which supports
ARMv8-A SVE standard.
We confirmed that all testcases have been passed by running 'make
check' and 'make xcheck' not only on A64FX but also on ThunderX2.
And also we confirmed that the SVE 512 bit vector register performance
is roughly 4 times better than Advanced SIMD 128 bit register and 8
times better than scalar 64 bit register by running 'make bench'.

This patch is a test helper script to change Vector Length for child
process. This script can be used as test-wrapper for 'make check'.
Usage examples:
~/build$ make check subdirs=string \
test-wrapper='~/glibc/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64/vltest.py 16'
~/build$ ~/glibc/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64/vltest.py 16 \

Previously, the source file nptl/cancellation.c was compiled multiple
times, for libc, libpthread, librt. This commit switches to a single
implementation, with new __pthread_enable_asynccancel@@GLIBC_PRIVATE,
__pthread_disable_asynccancel@@GLIBC_PRIVATE exports.
The almost-unused CANCEL_ASYNC and CANCEL_RESET macros are replaced
by LIBC_CANCEL_ASYNC and LIBC_CANCEL_ASYNC macros. They call the
__pthread_* functions unconditionally now. The macros are still
needed because shared code uses them; Hurd has different definitions.

The TUNABLE_SET interface took a primitive C type argument, which
resulted in inconsistent type conversions internally due to incorrect
dereferencing of types, especialy on 32-bit architectures. This
change simplifies the TUNABLE setting logic along with the interfaces.
Now all numeric tunable values are stored as signed numbers in
tunable_num_t, which is intmax_t. All calls to set tunables cast the
input value to its primitive type and then to tunable_num_t for
storage. This relies on gcc-specific (although I suspect other
compilers woul also do the same) unsigned to signed integer conversion
semantics, i.e. the bit pattern is conserved. The reverse conversion
is guaranteed by the standard.

Add _SC_MINSIGSTKSZ for the minimum signal stack size derived from
AT_MINSIGSTKSZ, which is the minimum number of bytes of free stack
space required in order to gurantee successful, non-nested handling
of a single signal whose handler is an empty function, and _SC_SIGSTKSZ
which is the suggested minimum number of bytes of stack space required
for a signal stack.
If AT_MINSIGSTKSZ isn't available, sysconf (_SC_MINSIGSTKSZ) returns
MINSIGSTKSZ. On Linux/x86 with XSAVE, the signal frame used by kernel
is composed of the following areas and laid out as:
------------------------------
| alignment padding |
------------------------------
| xsave buffer |
------------------------------
| fsave header (32-bit only) |
------------------------------
| siginfo + ucontext |
------------------------------
Compute AT_MINSIGSTKSZ value as size of xsave buffer + size of fsave
header (32-bit only) + size of siginfo and ucontext + alignment padding.
If _SC_SIGSTKSZ_SOURCE or _GNU_SOURCE are defined, MINSIGSTKSZ and SIGSTKSZ
are redefined as
/* Default stack size for a signal handler: sysconf (SC_SIGSTKSZ). */
# undef SIGSTKSZ
# define SIGSTKSZ sysconf (_SC_SIGSTKSZ)
/* Minimum stack size for a signal handler: SIGSTKSZ. */
# undef MINSIGSTKSZ
# define MINSIGSTKSZ SIGSTKSZ
Compilation will fail if the source assumes constant MINSIGSTKSZ or
SIGSTKSZ.
The reason for not simply increasing the kernel's MINSIGSTKSZ #define
(apart from the fact that it is rarely used, due to glibc's shadowing
definitions) was that userspace binaries will have baked in the old
value of the constant and may be making assumptions about it.
For example, the type (char [MINSIGSTKSZ]) changes if this #define
changes. This could be a problem if an newly built library tries to
memcpy() or dump such an object defined by and old binary.
Bounds-checking and the stack sizes passed to things like sigaltstack()
and makecontext() could similarly go wrong.

In <sys/platform/x86.h>, define CPU features as enum instead of using
the C preprocessor magic to make it easier to wrap this functionality
in other languages. Move the C preprocessor magic to internal header
for better GCC codegen when more than one features are checked in a
single expression as in x86-64 dl-hwcaps-subdirs.c.
1. Rename COMMON_CPUID_INDEX_XXX to CPUID_INDEX_XXX.
2. Move CPUID_INDEX_MAX to sysdeps/x86/include/cpu-features.h.
3. Remove struct cpu_features and __x86_get_cpu_features from
<sys/platform/x86.h>.
4. Add __x86_get_cpuid_feature_leaf to <sys/platform/x86.h> and put it
in libc.
5. Make __get_cpu_features() private to glibc.
6. Replace __x86_get_cpu_features(N) with __get_cpu_features().
7. Add _dl_x86_get_cpu_features to GLIBC_PRIVATE.
8. Use a single enum index for each CPU feature detection.
9. Pass the CPUID feature leaf to __x86_get_cpuid_feature_leaf.
10. Return zero struct cpuid_feature for the older glibc binary with a
smaller CPUID_INDEX_MAX [BZ #27104].
11. Inside glibc, use the C preprocessor magic so that cpu_features data
can be loaded just once leading to more compact code for glibc.
256 bits are used for each CPUID leaf. Some leaves only contain a few
features. We can add exceptions to such leaves. But it will increase
code sizes and it is harder to provide backward/forward compatibilities
when new features are added to such leaves in the future.
When new leaves are added, _rtld_global_ro offsets will change which
leads to race condition during in-place updates. We may avoid in-place
updates by
1. Rename the old glibc.
2. Install the new glibc.
3. Remove the old glibc.
NB: A function, __x86_get_cpuid_feature_leaf , is used to avoid the copy
relocation issue with IFUNC resolver as shown in IFUNC resolver tests.

Introduce a new _FORTIFY_SOURCE level of 3 to enable additional
fortifications that may have a noticeable performance impact, allowing
more fortification coverage at the cost of some performance.
With llvm 9.0 or later, this will replace the use of
__builtin_object_size with __builtin_dynamic_object_size.
__builtin_dynamic_object_size
-----------------------------
__builtin_dynamic_object_size is an LLVM builtin that is similar to
__builtin_object_size. In addition to what __builtin_object_size
does, i.e. replace the builtin call with a constant object size,
__builtin_dynamic_object_size will replace the call site with an
expression that evaluates to the object size, thus expanding its
applicability. In practice, __builtin_dynamic_object_size evaluates
these expressions through malloc/calloc calls that it can associate
with the object being evaluated.
A simple motivating example is below; -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 would miss
this and emit memcpy, but -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 with the help of
__builtin_dynamic_object_size is able to emit __memcpy_chk with the
allocation size expression passed into the function:
void *copy_obj (const void *src, size_t alloc, size_t copysize)
{
void *obj = malloc (alloc);
memcpy (obj, src, copysize);
return obj;
}
Limitations
-----------
If the object was allocated elsewhere that the compiler cannot see, or
if it was allocated in the function with a function that the compiler
does not recognize as an allocator then __builtin_dynamic_object_size
also returns -1.
Further, the expression used to compute object size may be non-trivial
and may potentially incur a noticeable performance impact. These
fortifications are hence enabled at a new _FORTIFY_SOURCE level to
allow developers to make a choice on the tradeoff according to their
environment.

I couldn't pinpoint which standard has added it, but no other POSIX
system supports it and/or no longer provide it. The 'struct vtimes'
also has a lot of drawbacks due its limited internal type size.
I couldn't also see find any project that actually uses this symbol,
either in some dignostic way (such as sanitizer). So I think it should
be safer to just move to compat symbol, instead of deprecated. The
idea it to avoid new ports to export such broken interface (riscv32
for instance).

In the Spanish language, the digraph "ll" has not been considered a

Since January 1998 (commit 49891c106244888123557fca7fddda4fa1f96b1d),
glibc's locale data no longer specifies "ch" and "ll" as separate

Also, the Czech "ch" is a better example as it collates in a more

The __x86_shared_non_temporal_threshold determines when memcpy on x86
uses non_temporal stores to avoid pushing other data out of the last
level cache.
This patch proposes to revert the calculation change made by H.J. Lu's
patch of June 2, 2017.
H.J. Lu's patch selected a threshold suitable for a single thread
getting maximum performance. It was tuned using the single threaded
large memcpy micro benchmark on an 8 core processor. The last change
changes the threshold from using 3/4 of one thread's share of the
cache to using 3/4 of the entire cache of a multi-threaded system
before switching to non-temporal stores. Multi-threaded systems with
more than a few threads are server-class and typically have many
active threads. If one thread consumes 3/4 of the available cache for
all threads, it will cause other active threads to have data removed
from the cache. Two examples show the range of the effect. John
McCalpin's widely parallel Stream benchmark, which runs in parallel
and fetches data sequentially, saw a 20% slowdown with this patch on
an internal system test of 128 threads. This regression was discovered
when comparing OL8 performance to OL7. An example that compares
normal stores to non-temporal stores may be found at
https://vgatherps.github.io/2018-09-02-nontemporal/. A simple test
shows performance loss of 400 to 500% due to a failure to use
nontemporal stores. These performance losses are most likely to occur
when the system load is heaviest and good performance is critical.
The tunable x86_non_temporal_threshold can be used to override the
default for the knowledgable user who really wants maximum cache
allocation to a single thread in a multi-threaded system.
The manual entry for the tunable has been expanded to provide
more information about its purpose.

Since all feature checks are done through macros, programs compiled with
a newer <sys/platform/x86.h> are compatible with the older glibc binaries
as long as the layout of struct cpu_features is identical. The features
array can be expanded with backward binary compatibility for both .o and
.so files. When COMMON_CPUID_INDEX_MAX is increased to support new
processor features, __x86_get_cpu_features in the older glibc binaries
returns NULL and HAS_CPU_FEATURE/CPU_FEATURE_USABLE return false on the
new processor feature. No new symbol version is neeeded.
Both CPU_FEATURE_USABLE and HAS_CPU_FEATURE are provided. HAS_CPU_FEATURE
can be used to identify processor features.
Note: Although GCC has __builtin_cpu_supports, it only supports a subset
of <sys/platform/x86.h> and it is equivalent to CPU_FEATURE_USABLE. It
doesn't support HAS_CPU_FEATURE.

The annotations for sigabbrev_np, sigdescr_np, strerrordesc_np,
strerrorname_np are not preliminary. These functions were
added precisely because they are AS-safe.

The kernel ABI is not finalized, and there are now various proposals
to change the size of struct rseq, which would make the glibc ABI
dependent on the version of the kernels used for building glibc.
This is of course not acceptable.
This reverts commit 48699da1c468543ade14777819bd1b4d652709de ("elf:
Support at least 32-byte alignment in static dlopen"), commit
8f4632deb3545b2949cec5454afc3cb21a0024ea ("Linux: rseq registration
tests"), commit 6e29cb3f61ff5432c78a1c84b0d9b123a350ab36 ("Linux: Use
rseq in sched_getcpu if available"), and commit
0c76fc3c2b346dc5401dc055d97d4279632b0fb3 ("Linux: Perform rseq
registration at C startup and thread creation"), resolving the conflicts
introduced by the ARC port and the TLS static surplus changes.

Texinfo no longer treats arguments to @set in @ifhtml blocks as
literal HTML, so the & in the entity references was encoded as
@amp; in HTML. Using the equivalent Unicode characters avoids
this issue.
