The CORE-MATH implementation is correctly rounded (for any rounding mode)
and shows better performance compared to the generic exp2m1f.
The code was adapted to glibc style and to use the definition of
math_config.h (to handle errno, overflow, and underflow). The
only change is to handle FLT_MAX_EXP for FE_DOWNWARD or FE_TOWARDZERO.
The benchmark inputs are based on exp2f ones.

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.

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.

m68k is a non-PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN arch which uses a GOT relocation when
loading the address of a jump table. The GOT load may be reordered
before processing R_68K_RELATIVE relocations, leading to an
unrelocated/incorrect jump table, which will cause a crash.
The foolproof approach is to add an optimization barrier (e.g. calling
an non-inlinable function after relative relocations are resolved). That
is non-trivial given the current code structure, so just use the simple
approach to avoid the jump table: handle only the essential reloctions
for RTLD_BOOTSTRAP code.

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 23c77f6018
("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.

csu code required its definition (which would require either include
