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:

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:
copyright statement not found" for each of 6694 files FOO.
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
diagnostic from Savannah:

The sem_clockwait and sem_timedwait have been converted to support 64 bit time.
This change reuses futex_abstimed_wait_cancelable64 function introduced earlier.
The sem_{clock|timed}wait only accepts absolute time. Moreover, there is no
need to check for NULL passed as *abstime pointer to the syscalls as both calls
have exported symbols marked with __nonull attribute for abstime.
For systems with __TIMESIZE != 64 && __WORDSIZE == 32:
- Conversion from 32 bit time to 64 bit struct __timespec64 was necessary
- Redirection to __sem_{clock|timed}wait64 will provide support for 64 bit
time
Build tests:
./src/scripts/build-many-glibcs.py glibcs
Run-time tests:
- Run specific tests on ARM/x86 32bit systems (qemu):
https://github.com/lmajewski/meta-y2038 and run tests:
https://github.com/lmajewski/y2038-tests/commits/master
Above tests were performed with Y2038 redirection applied as well as without
to test the proper usage of both __sem_{clock|timed}wait64 and
__sem_{clock|timed}wait.

This patch wraps all uses of *_{enable,disable}_asynccancel and
and *_CANCEL_{ASYNC,RESET} in either already provided macros
(lll_futex_timed_wait_cancel) or creates new ones if the
functionality is not provided (SYSCALL_CANCEL_NCS, lll_futex_wait_cancel,
and lll_futex_timed_wait_cancel).
Also for some generic implementations, the direct call of the macros
are removed since the underlying symbols are suppose to provide
cancellation support.
This is a priliminary patch intended to simplify the work required
for BZ#12683 fix. It is a refactor change, no semantic changes are
expected.

This patch fixes both sem_wait and sem_timedwait cancellation point for
uncontended case. In this scenario only atomics are involved and thus
the futex cancellable call is not issue and a pending cancellation signal
is not handled.
The fix is straighforward by calling pthread_testcancel is both function
start. Although it would be simpler to call CANCELLATION_P directly, I
decided to add an internal pthread_testcancel alias and use it to export
less internal implementation on such function. A possible change on
how pthread_testcancel is internally implemented would lead to either
continue to force use CANCELLATION_P or to adjust its every use.
GLIBC testcase also does have tests for uncontended cases, test-cancel12
and test-cancel14.c, however both are flawed by adding another
cancellation point just after thread pthread_cleanup_pop:
47 static void *
48 tf (void *arg)
49 {
50 pthread_cleanup_push (cleanup, NULL);
51
52 int e = pthread_barrier_wait (&bar);
53 if (e != 0 && e != PTHREAD_BARRIER_SERIAL_THREAD)
54 {
55 puts ("tf: 1st barrier_wait failed");
56 exit (1);
57 }
58
59 /* This call should block and be cancelable. */
60 sem_wait (&sem);
61
62 pthread_cleanup_pop (0);
63
64 puts ("sem_wait returned");
65
66 return NULL;
67 }
So sem_{timed}wait does not act on cancellation, pthread_cleanup_pop executes
'cleanup' and then 'puts' acts on cancellation. Since pthread_cleanup_pop
removed the clean-up handler, it will ran only once and thus it won't accuse
an error to indicate sem_wait has not acted on the cancellation signal.
This patch also fixes this behavior by removing the cancellation point 'puts'.
It also adds some cleanup on all sem_{timed}wait cancel tests.
It partially fixes BZ #18243. Checked on x86_64.

This adds new functions for futex operations, starting with wait,
abstimed_wait, reltimed_wait, wake. They add documentation and error
checking according to the current draft of the Linux kernel futex manpage.
Waiting with absolute or relative timeouts is split into separate functions.
This allows for removing a few cases of code duplication in pthreads code,
which uses absolute timeouts; also, it allows us to put platform-specific
code to go from an absolute to a relative timeout into the platform-specific
futex abstractions..
Futex operations that can be canceled are also split out into separate
functions suffixed by "_cancelable".
There are separate versions for both Linux and NaCl; while they currently
differ only slightly, my expectation is that the separate versions of
lowlevellock-futex.h will eventually be merged into futex-internal.h
when we get to move the lll_ functions over to the new futex API.
This commit fixes semaphore destruction by either using 64b atomic
operations (where available), or by using two separate fields when only
32b atomic operations are available. In the latter case, we keep a
conservative estimate of whether there are any waiting threads in one
bit of the field that counts the number of available tokens, thus
allowing sem_post to atomically both add a token and determine whether
it needs to call futex_wake.
