C23 adds various <math.h> function families originally defined in TS
18661-4. Add the logp1 functions (aliases for log1p functions - the
name is intended to be more consistent with the new log2p1 and
log10p1, where clearly it would have been very confusing to name those
functions log21p and log101p). As aliases rather than new functions,
the content of this patch is somewhat different from those actually
adding new functions.
Tests are shared with log1p, so this patch *does* mechanically update
all affected libm-test-ulps files to expect the same errors for both
functions.
The vector versions of log1p on aarch64 and x86_64 are *not* updated
to have logp1 aliases (and thus there are no corresponding header,
tests, abilist or ulps changes for vector functions either). It would
be reasonable for such vector aliases and corresponding changes to
other files to be made separately. For now, the log1p tests instead
avoid testing logp1 in the vector case (a Makefile change is needed to
avoid problems with grep, used in generating the .c files for vector
function tests, matching more than one ALL_RM_TEST line in a file
testing multiple functions with the same inputs, when it assumes that
the .inc file only has a single such line).
Tested for x86_64 and x86, and with build-many-glibcs.py.

WG14 decided to use the name C23 as the informal name of the next
revision of the C standard (notwithstanding the publication date in
2024). Update references to C2X in glibc to use the C23 name.
This is intended to update everything *except* where it involves
renaming files (the changes involving renaming tests are intended to
be done separately). In the case of the _ISOC2X_SOURCE feature test
macro - the only user-visible interface involved - support for that
macro is kept for backwards compatibility, while adding
_ISOC23_SOURCE.

In the future, this will result in a compilation failure if the
macros are unexpectedly undefined (due to header inclusion ordering
or header inclusion missing altogether).
Assembler sources are more difficult to convert. In many cases,
they are hand-optimized for the mangling and no-mangling variants,
which is why they are not converted.
sysdeps/s390/s390-32/__longjmp.c and sysdeps/s390/s390-64/__longjmp.c
are special: These are C sources, but most of the implementation is
in assembler, so the PTR_DEMANGLE macro has to be undefined in some
cases, to match the assembler style.

This allows us to define a generic no-op version of PTR_MANGLE and
PTR_DEMANGLE. In the future, we can use PTR_MANGLE and PTR_DEMANGLE
unconditionally in C sources, avoiding an unintended loss of hardening
due to missing include files or unlucky header inclusion ordering.
In i386 and x86_64, we can avoid a <tls.h> dependency in the C
code by using the computed constant from <tcb-offsets.h>. <sysdep.h>
no longer includes these definitions, so there is no cyclic dependency
anymore when computing the <tcb-offsets.h> constants.

GCC 13 adds support for _FloatN and _FloatNx types in C++, so breaking
the installed glibc headers that assume such support is not present.
GCC mostly works around this with fixincludes, but that doesn't help
for building glibc and its tests (glibc doesn't itself contain C++
code, but there's C++ code built for tests). Update glibc's
bits/floatn-common.h and bits/floatn.h headers to handle the GCC 13
support directly.
In general the changes match those made by fixincludes, though I think
the ones in sysdeps/powerpc/bits/floatn.h, where the header tests
__LDBL_MANT_DIG__ == 113 or uses #elif, wouldn't match the existing
fixincludes patterns.
Some places involving special C++ handling in relation to _FloatN
support are not changed. There's no need to change the
__HAVE_FLOATN_NOT_TYPEDEF definition (also in a form that wouldn't be
matched by the fixincludes fixes) because it's only used in relation
to macro definitions using features not supported for C++
(__builtin_types_compatible_p and _Generic). And there's no need to
change the inline function overloads for issignaling, iszero and
iscanonical in C++ because cases where types have the same format but
are no longer compatible types are handled automatically by the C++
overload resolution rules.
This patch also does not change the overload handling for iseqsig, and
there I think changes *are* needed, beyond those in this patch or made
by fixincludes. The way that overload is defined, via a template
parameter to a structure type, requires overloads whenever the types
are incompatible, even if they have the same format. So I think we
need to add overloads with GCC 13 for every supported _FloatN and
_FloatNx type, rather than just having one for _Float128 when it has a
different ABI to long double as at present (but for older GCC, such
overloads must not be defined for types that end up defined as
typedefs for another type).

Avoid fiddling with autoconf internals and use AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED to
define macros in the configuration headers rather than handcoding an
equivalent shell sequence with the use of the `as_echo' undocumented
variable.
Similarly use AC_MSG_ERROR for error handling rather than the internal
undocumented `as_fn_error' variable. Switch to using 1 as the exit code
as it makes no sense to refer $? in the contexts involved, it's not a
command failure handled there.

PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN indicates whether accesses to internal linkage
variables and hidden visibility variables in a shared object (ld.so)
need dynamic relocations (usually R_*_RELATIVE). PI (position
independent) in the macro name is a misnomer: a code sequence using GOT
is typically position-independent as well, but using dynamic relocations
does not meet the requirement.
Not defining PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN is legacy and we expect that all new
ports will define PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN. Current ports defining
PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN are more than the opposite. Change the configure
default.
No functional change.

TLS_INIT_TCB_ALIGN is not actually used. TLS_TCB_ALIGN was likely
introduced to support a configuration where the thread pointer
has not the same alignment as THREAD_SELF. Only ia64 seems to use
that, but for the stack/pointer guard, not for storing tcbhead_t.
Some ports use TLS_TCB_OFFSET and TLS_PRE_TCB_SIZE to shift
the thread pointer, potentially landing in a different residue class
modulo the alignment, but the changes should not impact that.
In general, given that TLS variables have their own alignment
requirements, having different alignment for the (unshifted) thread
pointer and struct pthread would potentially result in dynamic
offsets, leading to more complexity.
hppa had different values before: __alignof__ (tcbhead_t), which
seems to be 4, and __alignof__ (struct pthread), which was 8
(old default) and is now 32. However, it defines THREAD_SELF as:
/* Return the thread descriptor for the current thread. */
# define THREAD_SELF \
({ struct pthread *__self; \
__self = __get_cr27(); \
__self - 1; \
})
So the thread pointer points after struct pthread (hence __self - 1),
and they have to have the same alignment on hppa as well.
Similarly, on ia64, the definitions were different. We have:
# define TLS_PRE_TCB_SIZE \
(sizeof (struct pthread) \
+ (PTHREAD_STRUCT_END_PADDING < 2 * sizeof (uintptr_t) \
? ((2 * sizeof (uintptr_t) + __alignof__ (struct pthread) - 1) \
& ~(__alignof__ (struct pthread) - 1)) \
: 0))
# define THREAD_SELF \
((struct pthread *) ((char *) __thread_self - TLS_PRE_TCB_SIZE))
And TLS_PRE_TCB_SIZE is a multiple of the struct pthread alignment
(confirmed by the new _Static_assert in sysdeps/ia64/libc-tls.c).
On m68k, we have a larger gap between tcbhead_t and struct pthread.
But as far as I can tell, the port is fine with that. The definition
of TCB_OFFSET is sufficient to handle the shifted TCB scenario.
This fixes commit 23c77f60181eb549f11ec2f913b4270af29eee38
("nptl: Increase default TCB alignment to 32").

The 4af6982e4c fix does not fully handle RTLD_BOOTSTRAP usage on
rtld.c due two issues:
1. RTLD_BOOTSTRAP is also used on dl-machine.h on various
architectures and it changes the semantics of various machine
relocation functions.
2. The elf_get_dynamic_info() change was done sideways, previously
to 490e6c62aa get-dynamic-info.h was included by the first
dynamic-link.h include *without* RTLD_BOOTSTRAP being defined.
It means that the code within elf_get_dynamic_info() that uses
RTLD_BOOTSTRAP is in fact unused.
To fix 1. this patch now includes dynamic-link.h only once with
RTLD_BOOTSTRAP defined. The ELF_DYNAMIC_RELOCATE call will now have
the relocation fnctions with the expected semantics for the loader.
And to fix 2. part of 4af6982e4c is reverted (the check argument
elf_get_dynamic_info() is not required) and the RTLD_BOOTSTRAP
pieces are removed.
To reorganize the includes the static TLS definition is moved to
its own header to avoid a circular dependency (it is defined on
dynamic-link.h and dl-machine.h requires it at same time other
dynamic-link.h definition requires dl-machine.h defitions).
Also ELF_MACHINE_NO_REL, ELF_MACHINE_NO_RELA, and ELF_MACHINE_PLT_REL
are moved to its own header. Only ancient ABIs need special values
(arm, i386, and mips), so a generic one is used as default.
The powerpc Elf64_FuncDesc is also moved to its own header, since
csu code required its definition (which would require either include
elf/ folder or add a full path with elf/).

dynamic-link.h is included more than once in some elf/ files (rtld.c,
dl-conflict.c, dl-reloc.c, dl-reloc-static-pie.c) and uses GCC nested
functions. This harms readability and the nested functions usage
is the biggest obstacle prevents Clang build (Clang doesn't support GCC
nested functions).
The key idea for unnesting is to add extra parameters (struct link_map
*and struct r_scope_elm *[]) to RESOLVE_MAP,
ELF_MACHINE_BEFORE_RTLD_RELOC, ELF_DYNAMIC_RELOCATE, elf_machine_rel[a],
elf_machine_lazy_rel, and elf_machine_runtime_setup. (This is inspired
by Stan Shebs' ppc64/x86-64 implementation in the
google/grte/v5-2.27/master which uses mixed extra parameters and static
variables.)
Future simplification:
* If mips elf_machine_runtime_setup no longer needs RESOLVE_GOTSYM,
elf_machine_runtime_setup can drop the `scope` parameter.
* If TLSDESC no longer need to be in elf_machine_lazy_rel,
elf_machine_lazy_rel can drop the `scope` parameter.

section is readonly and set it based on p_flags of PT_DYNAMIC segment.
2. Replace DL_RO_DYN_SECTION with dl_relocate_ld to decide if dynamic
section should be relocated.
3. Remove DL_RO_DYN_TEMP_CNT.
4. Don't use a static dynamic section to make readonly dynamic section
in vDSO writable.
5. Remove the temp argument from elf_get_dynamic_info.
This fixes BZ #28340.

All the ports now have THREAD_GSCOPE_IN_TCB set to 1. Remove all
support for !THREAD_GSCOPE_IN_TCB, along with the definition itself.

We stopped adding "Contributed by" or similar lines in sources in 2012
in favour of git logs and keeping the Contributors section of the
glibc manual up to date. Removing these lines makes the license
header a bit more consistent across files and also removes the
possibility of error in attribution when license blocks or files are
copied across since the contributed-by lines don't actually reflect
reality in those cases.
Move all "Contributed by" and similar lines (Written by, Test by,
etc.) into a new file CONTRIBUTED-BY to retain record of these
contributions. These contributors are also mentioned in
manual/contrib.texi, so we just maintain this additional record as a
courtesy to the earlier developers.
The following scripts were used to filter a list of files to edit in
place and to clean up the CONTRIBUTED-BY file respectively. These
were not added to the glibc sources because they're not expected to be
of any use in future given that this is a one time task:
