This commit refactors `strrchr-evex` and `strrchr-evex512` to use a
common implementation: `strrchr-evex-base.S`.
The motivation is `strrchr-evex` needed to be refactored to not use
64-bit masked registers in preperation for AVX10.
Once vec-width masked register combining was removed, the EVEX and
EVEX512 implementations can easily be implemented in the same file
without any major overhead.
The net result is performance improvements (measured on TGL) for both
`strrchr-evex` and `strrchr-evex512`. Although, note there are some
regressions in the test suite and it may be many of the cases that
make the total-geomean of improvement/regression across bench-strrchr
are cold. The point of the performance measurement is to show there
are no major regressions, but the primary motivation is preperation
for AVX10.
Benchmarks where taken on TGL:

In short: __tls_get_addr checks the global generation counter and if
the current dtv is older then _dl_update_slotinfo updates dtv up to the
generation of the accessed module. So if the global generation is newer
than generation of the module then __tls_get_addr keeps hitting the
slow dtv update path. The dtv update path includes a number of checks
to see if any update is needed and this already causes measurable tls
access slow down after dlopen.
It may be possible to detect up-to-date dtv faster. But if there are
many modules loaded (> TLS_SLOTINFO_SURPLUS) then this requires at
least walking the slotinfo list.
This patch tries to update the dtv to the global generation instead, so
after a dlopen the tls access slow path is only hit once. The modules
with larger generation than the accessed one were not necessarily
synchronized before, so additional synchronization is needed.
This patch uses acquire/release synchronization when accessing the
generation counter.
Note: in the x86_64 version of dl-tls.c the generation is only loaded
once, since relaxed mo is not faster than acquire mo load.
I have not benchmarked this. Tested by Adhemerval Zanella on aarch64,
powerpc, sparc, x86 who reported that it fixes the performance issue
of bug 19924.

The first segment in a shared library may be read-only, not executable.
To support LD_PREFER_MAP_32BIT_EXEC on such shared libraries, we also
check MAP_DENYWRITE to decide if MAP_32BIT should be passed to mmap.
Normally the first segment is mapped with MAP_COPY, which is defined
as (MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_DENYWRITE). But if the segment alignment is
greater than the page size, MAP_COPY isn't used to allocate enough
space to ensure that the segment can be properly aligned. Map the
first segment with MAP_COPY in this case to fix BZ #30452.

On i386 and x86_64, for libc.a specifically, __mempcpy_chk calls
mempcpy which leads POSIX routines to call non-POSIX mempcpy indirectly.
This leads the linknamespace test to fail when glibc is built with
__FORTIFY_SOURCE=3.
Since calling mempcpy doesn't bring any benefit for libc.a, directly
call __mempcpy instead.

This patch enables libmvec on AArch64. The proposed change is mainly
implementing build infrastructure to add the new routines to ABI,
tests and benchmarks. I have demonstrated how this all fits together
by adding implementations for vector cos, in both single and double
precision, targeting both Advanced SIMD and SVE.
The implementations of the routines themselves are just loops over the
scalar routine from libm for now, as we are more concerned with
getting the plumbing right at this point. We plan to contribute vector
routines from the Arm Optimized Routines repo that are compliant with
requirements described in the libmvec wiki.
Building libmvec requires minimum GCC 10 for SVE ACLE. To avoid raising
the minimum GCC by such a big jump, we allow users to disable libmvec
if their compiler is too old.
Note that at this point users have to manually call the vector math
functions. This seems to be acceptable to some downstream users.

Occurs when `src` has no null-term.
Two cases:
1) Zero-length check is doing:
```
test %rdx, %rdx
jl L(zero_len)
```
which doesn't actually check zero (was at some point `decq` and the
flag never got updated).
The fix is just make the flag `jle` i.e:
```
test %rdx, %rdx
jle L(zero_len)
```
2) Length check in page-cross case checking if we should continue is
doing:
```
cmpq %r8, %rdx
jb L(page_cross_small)
```
which means we will continue searching for null-term if length ends at
the end of a page and there was no null-term in `src`.
The fix is to make the flag:
```
cmpq %r8, %rdx
jbe L(page_cross_small)
```

vfprintf is entangled with vfwprintf (of course), __printf_fp,
__printf_fphex, __vstrfmon_l_internal, and the strfrom family of
functions. The latter use the internal snprintf functionality,
so vsnprintf is converted as well.
The simples conversion is __printf_fphex, followed by
__vstrfmon_l_internal and __printf_fp, and finally
__vfprintf_internal and __vfwprintf_internal. __vsnprintf_internal
and strfrom* are mostly consuming the new interfaces, so they
are comparatively simple.
__printf_fp is a public symbol, so the FILE *-based interface
had to preserved.
The __printf_fp rewrite does not change the actual binary-to-decimal
conversion algorithm, and digits are still not emitted directly to
the target buffer. However, the staging buffer now uses bytes
instead of wide characters, and one buffer copy is eliminated.
The changes are at least performance-neutral in my testing.
Floating point printing and snprintf improved measurably, so that
this Lua script
for i=1,5000000 do
print(i, i * math.pi)
end
runs about 5% faster for me. To preserve fprintf performance for
a simple "%d" format, this commit has some logic changes under
LABEL (unsigned_number) to avoid additional function calls. There
are certainly some very easy performance improvements here: binary,
octal and hexadecimal formatting can easily avoid the temporary work
buffer (the number of digits can be computed ahead-of-time using one
of the __builtin_clz* built-ins). Decimal formatting can use a
specialized version of _itoa_word for base 10.
The existing (inconsistent) width handling between strfmon and printf
is preserved here. __print_fp_buffer_1 would have to use
__translated_number_width to achieve ISO conformance for printf.
Test expectations in libio/tst-vtables-common.c are adjusted because
the internal staging buffer merges all virtual function calls into
one.
In general, stack buffer usage is greatly reduced, particularly for
unbuffered input streams. __printf_fp can still use a large buffer
in binary128 mode for %g, though.

#29863]
In the case of INCORRECT usage of `memcmp(a, b, N)` where `a` and `b`
are concurrently modified as `memcmp` runs, there can be a SIGSEGV
in `L(ret_nonzero_vec_end_0)` because the sequential logic
assumes that `(rdx - 32 + rax)` is a positive 32-bit integer.
To be clear, this change does not mean the usage of `memcmp` is
supported. The program behaviour is undefined (UB) in the
presence of data races, and `memcmp` is incorrect when the values
of `a` and/or `b` are modified concurrently (data race). This UB
may manifest itself as a SIGSEGV. That being said, if we can
allow the idiomatic use cases, like those in yottadb with
opportunistic concurrency control (OCC), to execute without a
SIGSEGV, at no cost to regular use cases, then we can aim to
minimize harm to those existing users.
The fix replaces a 32-bit `addl %edx, %eax` with the 64-bit variant
`addq %rdx, %rax`. The 1-extra byte of code size from using the
64-bit instruction doesn't contribute to overall code size as the
next target is aligned and has multiple bytes of `nop` padding
before it. As well all the logic between the add and `ret` still
fits in the same fetch block, so the cost of this change is
basically zero.
The relevant sequential logic can be seen in the following
pseudo-code:
```
/*
* rsi = a
* rdi = b
* rdx = len - 32
*/
/* cmp a[0:15] and b[0:15]. Since length is known to be [17, 32]
in this case, this check is also assumed to cover a[0:(31 - len)]
and b[0:(31 - len)]. */
movups (%rsi), %xmm0
movups (%rdi), %xmm1
PCMPEQ %xmm0, %xmm1
pmovmskb %xmm1, %eax
subl %ecx, %eax
jnz L(END_NEQ)
/* cmp a[len-16:len-1] and b[len-16:len-1]. */
movups 16(%rsi, %rdx), %xmm0
movups 16(%rdi, %rdx), %xmm1
PCMPEQ %xmm0, %xmm1
pmovmskb %xmm1, %eax
subl %ecx, %eax
jnz L(END_NEQ2)
ret
L(END2):
/* Position first mismatch. */
bsfl %eax, %eax
/* The sequential version is able to assume this value is a
positive 32-bit value because the first check included bytes in
range a[0:(31 - len)] and b[0:(31 - len)] so `eax` must be
greater than `31 - len` so the minimum value of `edx` + `eax` is
`(len - 32) + (32 - len) >= 0`. In the concurrent case, however,
`a` or `b` could have been changed so a mismatch in `eax` less or
equal than `(31 - len)` is possible (the new low bound is `(16 -
len)`. This can result in a negative 32-bit signed integer, which
when zero extended to 64-bits is a random large value this out
out of bounds. */
addl %edx, %eax
/* Crash here because 32-bit negative number in `eax` zero
extends to out of bounds 64-bit offset. */
movzbl 16(%rdi, %rax), %ecx
movzbl 16(%rsi, %rax), %eax
```
This fix is quite simple, just make the `addl %edx, %eax` 64 bit (i.e
`addq %rdx, %rax`). This prevents the 32-bit zero extension
and since `eax` is still a low bound of `16 - len` the `rdx + rax`
is bound by `(len - 32) - (16 - len) >= -16`. Since we have a
fixed offset of `16` in the memory access this must be in bounds.

Optimizations are:
1. Use more overlapping stores to avoid branches.
2. Reduce how unrolled the aligning copies are (this is more of a
code-size save, its a negative for some sizes in terms of
perf).
3. For st{r|p}n{cat|cpy} re-order the branches to minimize the
number that are taken.

strcpy-avx2.S -> strcpy, stpcpy, strcat
strncpy-avx2.S -> strncpy
strncat-avx2.S > strncat
I couldn't find a way to merge them without making the
ifdefs incredibly difficult to follow.

Optimizations are:
1. Use more overlapping stores to avoid branches.
2. Reduce how unrolled the aligning copies are (this is more of a
code-size save, its a negative for some sizes in terms of
perf).
3. Improve the loop a bit (similiar to what we do in strlen with
2x vpminu + kortest instead of 3x vpminu + kmov + test).
4. For st{r|p}n{cat|cpy} re-order the branches to minimize the
number that are taken.

ifdefs incredibly difficult to follow.
2. All implementations can be made evex512 by including
"x86-evex512-vecs.h" at the top.
3. All implementations have an optional define:
`USE_EVEX_MASKED_STORE`
Setting to one uses evex-masked stores for handling short
strings. This saves code size and branches. It's disabled
for all implementations are the moment as there are some
serious drawbacks to masked stores in certain cases, but
that may be fixed on future architectures.
Full check passes on x86-64 and build succeeds for all ISA levels w/
and w/o multiarch.

Changes to generated code are:
1. In a few places use `vpcmpeqb` instead of `vpcmpneq` to save a
byte of code size.
2. Add a branch for length <= (VEC_SIZE * 6) as opposed to doing
the entire block of [VEC_SIZE * 4 + 1, VEC_SIZE * 8] in a
single basic-block (the space to add the extra branch without
changing code size is bought with the above change).
Change (2) has roughly a 20-25% speedup for sizes in [VEC_SIZE * 4 +
1, VEC_SIZE * 6] and negligible to no-cost for [VEC_SIZE * 6 + 1,
VEC_SIZE * 8]

Rewriting with VMM API allows for memcmpeq-evex to be used with
evex512 by including "x86-evex512-vecs.h" at the top.
Complete check passes on x86-64.
