This patch is based on __strcmp_power9 and __strlen_power10.
Improvements from __strcmp_power9:
1. Uses new POWER10 instructions
- This code uses lxvp to decrease contention on load
by loading 32 bytes per instruction.
2. Performance implication
- This version has around 30% better performance on average.
- Performance regression is seen for a specific combination
of sizes and alignments. Some of them is observed without
changes also, while rest may be induced by the patch.

Bump autoconf requirement to 2.71 to allow regenerating configure on
more recent distributions. autoconf 2.71 has been in Fedora since F36
and is the current version in Debian stable (bookworm). It appears to
be current in Gentoo as well.
All sysdeps configure and preconfigure scripts have also been
regenerated; all changes are trivial transformations that do not affect
functionality.

GCC 13 has added more _FloatN and _FloatNx versions of existing
<math.h> and <complex.h> built-in functions, for use in libstdc++-v3.
This breaks the glibc build because of how those functions are defined
as aliases to functions with the same ABI but different types. Add
appropriate -fno-builtin-* options for compiling relevant files, as
already done for the case of long double functions aliasing double
ones and based on the list of files used there.
I fixed some mistakes in that list of double files that I noticed
while implementing this fix, but there may well be more such
(harmless) cases, in this list or the new one (files that don't
actually exist or don't define the named functions as aliases so don't
need the options). I did try to exclude cases where glibc doesn't
define certain functions for _FloatN or _FloatNx types at all from the
new uses of -fno-builtin-* options. As with the options for double
files (see the commit message for commit
49348beafe9ba150c9bd48595b3f372299bddbb0, "Fix build with GCC 10 when
long double = double."), it's deliberate that the options are used
even if GCC currently doesn't have a built-in version of a given
functions, so providing some level of future-proofing against more
such built-in functions being added in future.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py for aarch64-linux-gnu
powerpc-linux-gnu powerpc64le-linux-gnu x86_64-linux-gnu (compilers
and glibcs builds) with GCC mainline.

Besides the option being gcc specific, this approach is still fragile
and not future proof since we do not know if this will be the only
optimization option gcc will add that transforms loops to memset
(or any libcall).
This patch adds a new header, dl-symbol-redir-ifunc.h, that can b
used to redirect the compiler generated libcalls to port the generic
memset implementation if required.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and aarch64-linux-gnu.

__strncpy_power9 initializes VR 18 with zeroes to be used throughout the
code, including when zero-padding the destination string. However, the
v18 reference was mistakenly being used for stxv and stxvl, which take a
VSX vector as operand. The code ended up using the uninitialized VSR 18
register by mistake.
Both occurrences have been changed to use the proper VSX number for VR 18
(i.e. VSR 50).
Tested on powerpc, powerpc64 and powerpc64le.

configure scripts need to be runnable with a POSIX-compliant /bin/sh.
On many (but not all!) systems, /bin/sh is provided by Bash, so errors
like this aren't spotted. Notably Debian defaults to /bin/sh provided
by dash which doesn't tolerate such bashisms as '=='.
This retains compatibility with bash.
Fixes configure warnings/errors like:
```
checking if compiler warns about alias for function with incompatible types... yes

No bug.
This commit adds support for __memcmpeq() as a new ABI for all
targets. In this commit __memcmpeq() is implemented only as an alias
to the corresponding targets memcmp() implementation. __memcmpeq() is
added as a new symbol starting with GLIBC_2.35 and defined in string.h
with comments explaining its behavior. Basic tests that it is callable
and works where added in string/tester.c
As discussed in the proposal "Add new ABI '__memcmpeq()' to libc"
__memcmpeq() is essentially a reserved namespace for bcmp(). The means
is shares the same specifications as memcmp() except the return value
for non-equal byte sequences is any non-zero value. This is less
strict than memcmp()'s return value specification and can be better
optimized when a boolean return is all that is needed.
__memcmpeq() is meant to only be called by compilers if they can prove
that the return value of a memcmp() call is only used for its boolean
value.
All tests in string/tester.c passed. As well build succeeds on
x86_64-linux-gnu target.

This patch adds the narrowing fused multiply-add functions from TS
18661-1 / TS 18661-3 / C2X to glibc's libm: ffma, ffmal, dfmal,
f32fmaf64, f32fmaf32x, f32xfmaf64 for all configurations; f32fmaf64x,
f32fmaf128, f64fmaf64x, f64fmaf128, f32xfmaf64x, f32xfmaf128,
f64xfmaf128 for configurations with _Float64x and _Float128;
__f32fmaieee128 and __f64fmaieee128 aliases in the powerpc64le case
(for calls to ffmal and dfmal when long double is IEEE binary128).
Corresponding tgmath.h macro support is also added.
The changes are mostly similar to those for the other narrowing
functions previously added, especially that for sqrt, so the
description of those generally applies to this patch as well. As with
sqrt, I reused the same test inputs in auto-libm-test-in as for
non-narrowing fma rather than adding extra or separate inputs for
narrowing fma. The tests in libm-test-narrow-fma.inc also follow
those for non-narrowing fma.
The non-narrowing fma has a known bug (bug 6801) that it does not set
errno on errors (overflow, underflow, Inf * 0, Inf - Inf). Rather
than fixing this or having narrowing fma check for errors when
non-narrowing does not (complicating the cases when narrowing fma can
otherwise be an alias for a non-narrowing function), this patch does
not attempt to check for errors from narrowing fma and set errno; the
CHECK_NARROW_FMA macro is still present, but as a placeholder that
does nothing, and this missing errno setting is considered to be
covered by the existing bug rather than needing a separate open bug.
missing-errno annotations are duly added to many of the
auto-libm-test-in test inputs for fma.
This completes adding all the new functions from TS 18661-1 to glibc,
so will be followed by corresponding stdc-predef.h changes to define
__STDC_IEC_60559_BFP__ and __STDC_IEC_60559_COMPLEX__, as the support
for TS 18661-1 will be at a similar level to that for C standard
floating-point facilities up to C11 (pragmas not implemented, but
library functions done). (There are still further changes to be done
to implement changes to the types of fromfp functions from N2548.)
Tested as followed: natively with the full glibc testsuite for x86_64
(GCC 11, 7, 6) and x86 (GCC 11); with build-many-glibcs.py with GCC
11, 7 and 6; cross testing of math/ tests for powerpc64le, powerpc32
hard float, mips64 (all three ABIs, both hard and soft float). The
different GCC versions are to cover the different cases in tgmath.h
and tgmath.h tests properly (GCC 6 has _Float* only as typedefs in
glibc headers, GCC 7 has proper _Float* support, GCC 8 adds
__builtin_tgmath).

This patch adds the narrowing square root functions from TS 18661-1 /
TS 18661-3 / C2X to glibc's libm: fsqrt, fsqrtl, dsqrtl, f32sqrtf64,
f32sqrtf32x, f32xsqrtf64 for all configurations; f32sqrtf64x,
f32sqrtf128, f64sqrtf64x, f64sqrtf128, f32xsqrtf64x, f32xsqrtf128,
f64xsqrtf128 for configurations with _Float64x and _Float128;
__f32sqrtieee128 and __f64sqrtieee128 aliases in the powerpc64le case
(for calls to fsqrtl and dsqrtl when long double is IEEE binary128).
Corresponding tgmath.h macro support is also added.
The changes are mostly similar to those for the other narrowing
functions previously added, so the description of those generally
applies to this patch as well. However, the not-actually-narrowing
cases (where the two types involved in the function have the same
floating-point format) are aliased to sqrt, sqrtl or sqrtf128 rather
than needing a separately built not-actually-narrowing function such
as was needed for add / sub / mul / div. Thus, there is no
__nldbl_dsqrtl name for ldbl-opt because no such name was needed
(whereas the other functions needed such a name since the only other
name for that entry point was e.g. f32xaddf64, not reserved by TS
18661-1); the headers are made to arrange for sqrt to be called in
that case instead.
The DIAG_* calls in sysdeps/ieee754/soft-fp/s_dsqrtl.c are because
they were observed to be needed in GCC 7 testing of
riscv32-linux-gnu-rv32imac-ilp32. The other sysdeps/ieee754/soft-fp/
files added didn't need such DIAG_* in any configuration I tested with
build-many-glibcs.py, but if they do turn out to be needed in more
files with some other configuration / GCC version, they can always be
added there.
I reused the same test inputs in auto-libm-test-in as for
non-narrowing sqrt rather than adding extra or separate inputs for
narrowing sqrt. The tests in libm-test-narrow-sqrt.inc also follow
those for non-narrowing sqrt.
Tested as followed: natively with the full glibc testsuite for x86_64

This patch modifies the current POWER9 implementation of strcpy and
stpcpy to optimize it for POWER9/10.
Since no new POWER10 instructions are used, the original POWER9 strcpy is
modified instead of creating a new implementation for POWER10. This
implementation is based on both the original POWER9 implementation of
strcpy and the preamble of the new POWER10 implementation of strlen.
The changes also affect stpcpy, which uses the same implementation with
some additional code before returning.
On POWER9, averaging improvements across the benchmark
inputs (length/source alignment/destination alignment), for an
experiment that ran the benchmark five times, bench-strcpy showed an
improvement of 5.23%, and bench-stpcpy showed an improvement of 6.59%.
On POWER10, bench-strcpy showed 13.16%, and bench-stpcpy showed 13.59%.
The changes are:
1. Removed the null string optimization.
Although this results in a few extra cycles for the null string, in
combination with the second change, this resulted in improvements for
for other cases.
2. Adapted the preamble from strlen for POWER10.
This is the part of the function that handles up to the first 16 bytes
of the string.
3. Increased number of unrolled iterations in the main loop to 6.

This patch was based on the __memcmp_power8 and the recent
__strlen_power10.
Improvements from __memcmp_power8:
1. Don't need alignment code.
On POWER10 lxvp and lxvl do not generate alignment interrupts, so
they are safe for use on caching-inhibited memory. Notice that the
comparison on the main loop will wait for both VSR to be ready.
Therefore aligning one of the input address does not improve
performance. In order to align both registers a vperm is necessary
which add too much overhead.
2. Uses new POWER10 instructions
This code uses lxvp to decrease contention on load by loading 32 bytes
per instruction.
The vextractbm is used to have a smaller tail code for calculating the
return value.
3. Performance improvement
This version has around 35% better performance on average. I saw no
performance regressions for any length or alignment.
Thanks Matheus for helping me out with some details.

Reuse code for optimized strlen to implement a faster version of rawmemchr.
This takes advantage of the same benefits provided by the strlen implementation,
but needs some extra steps. __strlen_power10 code should be unchanged after this
change.
rawmemchr returns a pointer to the char found, while strlen returns only the
length, so we have to take that into account when preparing the return value.
To quickly check 64B, the loop on __strlen_power10 merges the whole block into
16B by using unsigned minimum vector operations (vminub) and checks if there are
any \0 on the resulting vector. The same code is used by rawmemchr if the char c
is 0. However, this approach does not work when c != 0. We first need to
subtract each byte by c, so that the value we are looking for is converted to a
0, then taking the minimum and checking for nulls works again.
The new code branches after it has compared ~256 bytes and chooses which of the
two strategies above will be used in the main loop, based on the char c. This
extra branch adds some overhead (~5%) for length ~256, but is quickly amortized
by the faster loop for larger sizes.
Compared to __rawmemchr_power9, this version is ~20% faster for length < 256.
Because of the optimized main loop, the improvement becomes ~35% for c != 0
and ~50% for c = 0 for strings longer than 256.

This implementation is based on __memset_power8 and integrates a lot
of suggestions from Anton Blanchard.
The biggest difference is that it makes extensive use of stxvl to
alignment and tail code to avoid branches and small stores. It has
three main execution paths:
a) "Short lengths" for lengths up to 64 bytes, avoiding as many
branches as possible.
b) "General case" for larger lengths, it has an alignment section
using stxvl to avoid branches, a 128 bytes loop and then a tail
code, again using stxvl with few branches.
c) "Zeroing cache blocks" for lengths from 256 bytes upwards and set
value being zero. It is mostly the __memset_power8 code but the
alignment phase was simplified because, at this point, address is
already 16-bytes aligned and also changed to use vector stores.
The tail code was also simplified to reuse the general case tail.
All unaligned stores use stxvl instructions that do not generate
alignment interrupts on POWER10, making it safe to use on
caching-inhibited memory.
On average, this implementation provides something around 30%
improvement when compared to __memset_power8.

This implementation is based on __memcpy_power8_cached and integrates
suggestions from Anton Blanchard.
It benefits from loads and stores with length for short lengths and for
tail code, simplifying the code.
All unaligned memory accesses use instructions that do not generate

The main loop has also been modified in order to increase instruction
throughput by reducing the dependency on updates from previous iterations.
On average, this implementation provides around 30% improvement when

This patch was initially based on the __memmove_power7 with some ideas
from strncpy implementation for Power 9.
Improvements from __memmove_power7:
1. Use lxvl/stxvl for alignment code.
The code for Power 7 uses branches when the input is not naturally
aligned to the width of a vector. The new implementation uses
lxvl/stxvl instead which reduces pressure on GPRs. It also allows
the removal of branch instructions, implicitly removing branch stalls
and mispredictions.
2. Use of lxv/stxv and lxvl/stxvl pair is safe to use on Cache Inhibited
memory.
On Power 10 vector load and stores are safe to use on CI memory for
addresses unaligned to 16B. This code takes advantage of this to
do unaligned loads.
The unaligned loads don't have a significant performance impact by
themselves. However doing so decreases register pressure on GPRs
and interdependence stalls on load/store pairs. This also improved
readability as there are now less code paths for different alignments.
Finally this reduces the overall code size.
3. Improved performance.
This version runs on average about 30% better than memmove_power7
for lengths larger than 8KB. For input lengths shorter than 8KB
the improvement is smaller, it has on average about 17% better
performance.
This version has a degradation of about 50% for input lengths
in the 0 to 31 bytes range when dest is unaligned.

Improvements compared to POWER9 version:
1. Take into account first 16B comparison for aligned strings
The previous version compares the first 16B and increments r4 by the number
of bytes until the address is 16B-aligned, then starts doing aligned loads at
that address. For aligned strings, this causes the first 16B to be compared
twice, because the increment is 0. Here we calculate the next 16B-aligned
address differently, which avoids that issue.
2. Use simple comparisons for the first ~192 bytes
The main loop is good for big strings, but comparing 16B each time is better
for smaller strings. So after aligning the address to 16 Bytes, we check
more 176B in 16B chunks. There may be some overlaps with the main loop for
unaligned strings, but we avoid using the more aggressive strategy too soon,
and also allow the loop to start at a 64B-aligned address. This greatly
benefits smaller strings and avoids overlapping checks if the string is
already aligned at a 64B boundary.
3. Reduce dependencies between load blocks caused by address calculation on loop
Doing a precise time tracing on the code showed many loads in the loop were
stalled waiting for updates to r4 from previous code blocks. This
implementation avoids that as much as possible by using 2 registers (r4 and
r5) to hold addresses to be used by different parts of the code.
Also, the previous code aligned the address to 16B, then to 64B by doing a
few 48B loops (if needed) until the address was aligned. The main loop could
not start until that 48B loop had finished and r4 was updated with the
current address. Here we calculate the address used by the loop very early,
so it can start sooner.
The main loop now uses 2 pointers 128B apart to make pointer updates less
frequent, and also unrolls 1 iteration to guarantee there is enough time
between iterations to update the pointers, reducing stalled cycles.
4. Use new P10 instructions
lxvp is used to load 32B with a single instruction, reducing contention in
the load queue.
vextractbm allows simplifying the tail code for the loop, replacing
vbpermq and avoiding having to generate a permute control vector.

The instructions xsxexpdp and xsxexpqp introduced on POWER9 extract

I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:

I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c
and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this

Programatically generate simple wrappers for interesting libm *f128
objects. Selected functions are transcendental functions or
those with trivial compiler builtins. This can result in a 2-3x
speedup (e.g logf128 and expf128).
A second set of implementation files are generated which include
the first implementation encountered along the search path. This
usually works, except when a wrapper is overriden and makefile
search order slightly diverges from include order. Likewise,
wrapper object files are created for each generated file. These
hold the ifunc selection routines which export ABI.
Next, several shared headers are intercepted to control renaming of
asm function redirects are used first, and sometimes macro renames
if the former is impractical.
Notably, if the request machine supports hardware IEEE128 (i.e POWER9
and newer) this ifunc machinery is disabled. Likewise existing
ifunc support for float128 is consolidated into this (e.g sqrtf128
and fmaf128).

This started as a trivial change to Anton's rawmemchr. I got
carried away. This is a hybrid between P8's asympotically
faster 64B checks with extremely efficient small string checks
e.g <64B (and sometimes a little bit more depending on alignment).
The second trick is to align to 64B by running a 48B checking loop
16B at a time until we naturally align to 64B (i.e checking 48/96/144
bytes/iteration based on the alignment after the first 5 comparisons).
This allieviates the need to check page boundaries.
Finally, explicly use the P7 strlen with the runtime loader when building
P9. We need to be cautious about vector/vsx extensions here on P9 only
builds.

This defines the macro such that it should behave best on all

strcmp is used while resolving PLT references. Vector registers
should not be used during this. The P9 strcmp makes heavy use of
vector registers, so it should be avoided in rtld.
This prevents quiet vector register corruption when glibc is configured
with --disable-multi-arch and --with-cpu=power9. This can be seen with
test-float64x-compat_totalordermag during the first call into
totalordermagf64x@GLIBC_2.27.
Add a guard to fallback to the power8 implementation when building
power9 strcmp for libraries other than libc.

On platforms where long double may have two different formats, i.e.: the
same format as double (64-bits) or something else (128-bits), building
with -mlong-double-128 is the default and function calls in the user
program match the name of the function in Glibc. When building with
-mlong-double-64, Glibc installed headers redirect such calls to the
appropriate function.
Likewise, the internals of glibc are now built against IEEE long double.
However, the only (minimally) notable usage of long double is difftime.

GCC 7.5.0 (PR94200) will refuse to compile if both -mabi=% and
-mlong-double-128 are passed on the command line. Surprisingly,
it will work happily if the latter is not. For the sake of
maintaining status quo, test for and blacklist such compilers.
Tested with a GCC 8.3.1 and GCC 7.5.0 compiler for ppc64le.

Add compiler feature tests to ensure we can build ieee128 long double.
These test for -mabi=ieeelongdouble, -mno-gnu-attribute, and -Wno-psabi.
Likewise, verify some compiler bugs have been addressed. These aren't
helpful for building glibc, but may cause test failures when testing
the new long double. See notes below from Raji.
On powerpc64le, some older compiler versions give error for the function
signbit() for 128-bit floating point types. This is fixed by PR83862
in gcc 8.0 and backported to gcc6 and gcc7. This patch adds a test
to check compiler version to avoid compiler errors during make check.
Likewise, test for -mno-gnu-attribute support which was
On powerpc64le, a few files are built on IEEE long double mode
(-mabi=ieeelongdouble), whereas most are built on IBM long double mode
(-mabi=ibmlongdouble, the default for -mlong-double-128). Since binutils
2.31, linking object files with different long double modes causes
errors similar to:
ld: libc_pic.a(s_isinfl.os) uses IBM long double,
libc_pic.a(ieee128-qefgcvt.os) uses IEEE long double.
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [../Makerules:649: libc_pic.os] Error 1
The warnings are fair and correct, but in order for glibc to have
support for both long double modes on powerpc64le, they have to be
ignored. This can be accomplished with the use of -mno-gnu-attribute
option when building the few files that require IEEE long double mode.
However, -mno-gnu-attribute is not available in GCC 6, the minimum
version required to build glibc, so this patch adds a test for this
feature in powerpc64le builds, and fails early if it's not available.
