f2c679d4b2 <sys/platform/x86.h>: Add Intel Key Locker support
Add Intel Key Locker:

https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/download/intel-key-locker-specification.html

support to <sys/platform/x86.h>.  Intel Key Locker has

1. KL: AES Key Locker instructions.
2. WIDE_KL: AES wide Key Locker instructions.
3. AESKLE: AES Key Locker instructions are enabled by OS.

Applications should use

if (CPU_FEATURE_USABLE (KL))

and

if (CPU_FEATURE_USABLE (WIDE_KL))

to check if AES Key Locker instructions and AES wide Key Locker
instructions are usable.

Since all feature checks are done through macros, programs compiled with
a newer <sys/platform/x86.h> are compatible with the older glibc binaries
as long as the layout of struct cpu_features is identical.  The features
array can be expanded with backward binary compatibility for both .o and
.so files.  When COMMON_CPUID_INDEX_MAX is increased to support new
processor features, __x86_get_cpu_features in the older glibc binaries
returns NULL and HAS_CPU_FEATURE/CPU_FEATURE_USABLE return false on the
new processor feature.  No new symbol version is neeeded.

Both CPU_FEATURE_USABLE and HAS_CPU_FEATURE are provided.  HAS_CPU_FEATURE
can be used to identify processor features.

Note: Although GCC has __builtin_cpu_supports, it only supports a subset
of <sys/platform/x86.h> and it is equivalent to CPU_FEATURE_USABLE.  It
doesn't support HAS_CPU_FEATURE.

5500cdba40 Remove --enable-obsolete-rpc configure flag
Sun RPC was removed from glibc. This includes rpcgen program, librpcsvc,
and Sun RPC headers. Also test for bug #20790 was removed

Backward compatibility for old programs is kept only for architectures
and ABIs that have been added in or before version 2.28.

libtirpc is mature enough, librpcsvc and rpcgen are provided in
rpcsvc-proto project.

NOTE: libnsl code depends on Sun RPC (installed libnsl headers use
installed Sun RPC headers), thus --enable-obsolete-rpc was a dependency
for --enable-obsolete-nsl (removed in a previous commit).

The arc ABI list file has to be updated because the port was added

ffb17e7ba3 rtld: Avoid using up static TLS surplus for optimizations [BZ #25051]
On some targets static TLS surplus area can be used opportunistically
for dynamically loaded modules such that the TLS access then becomes
faster (TLSDESC and powerpc TLS optimization). However we don't want
all surplus TLS to be used for this optimization because dynamically
loaded modules with initial-exec model TLS can only use surplus TLS.

The new contract for surplus static TLS use is:

- libc.so can have up to 192 bytes of IE TLS,
- other system libraries together can have up to 144 bytes of IE TLS.
- Some "optional" static TLS is available for opportunistic use.

The optional TLS is now tunable: rtld.optional_static_tls, so users
can directly affect the allocated static TLS size. (Note that module
unloading with dlclose does not reclaim static TLS. After the optional
TLS runs out, TLS access is no longer optimized to use static TLS.)

The default setting of rtld.optional_static_tls is 512 so the surplus
TLS is 3*192 + 4*144 + 512 = 1664 by default, the same as before.

Fixes BZ #25051.

Tested on aarch64-linux-gnu and x86_64-linux-gnu.

17796419b5 rtld: Account static TLS surplus for audit modules
The new static TLS surplus size computation is

  surplus_tls = 192 * (nns-1) + 144 * nns + 512

where nns is controlled via the rtld.nns tunable. This commit
accounts audit modules too so nns = rtld.nns + audit modules.

rtld.nns should only include the namespaces required by the
application, namespaces for audit modules are accounted on top
of that so audit modules don't use up the static TLS that is
reserved for the application. This allows loading many audit
modules without tuning rtld.nns or using up static TLS, and it
fixes

FAIL: elf/tst-auditmany

Note that DL_NNS is currently a hard upper limit for nns, and
if rtld.nns + audit modules go over the limit that's a fatal
error. By default rtld.nns is 4 which allows 12 audit modules.

Counting the audit modules is based on existing audit string
parsing code, we cannot use GLRO(dl_naudit) before the modules
are actually loaded.

0c7b002fac rtld: Add rtld.nns tunable for the number of supported namespaces
TLS_STATIC_SURPLUS is 1664 bytes currently which is not enough to
support DL_NNS (== 16) number of dynamic link namespaces, if we
assume 192 bytes of TLS are reserved for libc use and 144 bytes
are reserved for other system libraries that use IE TLS.

A new tunable is introduced to control the number of supported
namespaces and to adjust the surplus static TLS size as follows:

surplus_tls = 192 * (rtld.nns-1) + 144 * rtld.nns + 512

The default is rtld.nns == 4 and then the surplus TLS size is the
same as before, so the behaviour is unchanged by default. If an
application creates more namespaces than the rtld.nns setting
allows, then it is not guaranteed to work, but the limit is not
checked. So existing usage will continue to work, but in the
future if an application creates more than 4 dynamic link
namespaces then the tunable will need to be set.

In this patch DL_NNS is a fixed value and provides a maximum to
the rtld.nns setting.

Static linking used fixed 2048 bytes surplus TLS, this is changed
so the same contract is used as for dynamic linking.  With static
linking DL_NNS == 1 so rtld.nns tunable is forced to 1, so by
default the surplus TLS is reduced to 144 + 512 = 656 bytes. This
change is not expected to cause problems.

Tested on aarch64-linux-gnu and x86_64-linux-gnu.

ae7a94e5e3 Remove --enable-obsolete-nsl configure flag
this means that *always* libnsl is only built as shared library for
backward compatibility and the NSS modules libnss_nis and libnss_nisplus
are not built at all, libnsl's headers aren't installed.

This compatibility is kept only for architectures and ABIs that have
been added in or before version 2.28.

Replacement implementations based on TIRPC, which additionally support
IPv6, are available from <https://github.com/thkukuk/>.

This change does not affect libnss_compat which does not depended
on libnsl since 2.27 and thus can be used without NIS.

libnsl code depends on Sun RPC, e.g. on --enable-obsolete-rpc (installed
libnsl headers use installed Sun RPC headers), which will be removed in
the following commit.

b1ccfc061f signal: Move sys_siglist to a compat symbol
The symbol was deprecated by strsignal and its usage imposes issues
such as copy relocations.

Its internal name is changed to __sys_siglist and __sys_sigabbrev to
avoid static linking usage.  The compat code is also refactored, since
both Linux and Hurd usage the same strategy: export the same array with
different object sizes.

The libSegfault change avoids calling strsignal on the SIGFAULT signal
handler (the current usage is already sketchy, adding a call that
potentially issue locale internal function is even sketchier).

6c010c5dde Use C2x return value from getpayload of non-NaN (bug 26073).
In TS 18661-1, getpayload had an unspecified return value for a
non-NaN argument, while C2x requires the return value -1 in that case.

This patch implements the return value of -1.  I don't think this is
worth having a new symbol version that's an alias of the old one,
although occasionally we do that in such cases where the new function
semantics are a refinement of the old ones (to avoid programs relying
on the new semantics running on older glibc versions but not behaving
as intended).

0c76fc3c2b Linux: Perform rseq registration at C startup and thread creation
Register rseq TLS for each thread (including main), and unregister for
each thread (excluding main).  "rseq" stands for Restartable Sequences.

See the rseq(2) man page proposed here:
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/9/19/647

Those are based on glibc master branch commit 3ee1e0ec5c.
The rseq system call was merged into Linux 4.18.

The TLS_STATIC_SURPLUS define is increased to leave additional room for
dlopen'd initial-exec TLS, which keeps elf/tst-auditmany working.

The increase (76 bytes) is larger than 32 bytes because it has not been
increased in quite a while.  The cost in terms of additional TLS storage
is quite significant, but it will also obscure some initial-exec-related
dlopen failures.

61af4bbb2a mbstowcs: Document, test, and fix null pointer dst semantics (Bug 25219)
The function mbstowcs, by an XSI extension to POSIX, accepts a null
pointer for the destination wchar_t array.  This API behaviour allows
you to use the function to compute the length of the required wchar_t
array i.e. does the conversion without storing it and returns the
number of wide characters required.

We remove the __write_only__ markup for the first argument because it
is not true since the destination may be a null pointer, and so the
length argument may not apply.  We remove the markup otherwise the new
test case cannot be compiled with -Werror=nonnull.

We add a new test case for mbstowcs which exercises the destination is
a null pointer behaviour which we have now explicitly documented.

The mbsrtowcs and mbsnrtowcs behave similarly, and mbsrtowcs is
documented as doing this in C11, even if the standard doesn't come out
and call out this specific use case.  We add one note to each of
mbsrtowcs and mbsnrtowcs to call out that they support a null pointer
for the destination.

The wcsrtombs function behaves similarly but in the other way around
and allows you to use a null destination pointer to compute how many
bytes you would need to convert the wide character input.  We document
this particular case also, but leave wcsnrtombs as a references to
wcsrtombs, so the reader must still read the details of the semantics
for wcsrtombs.

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.

076f09afba Linux: Remove <sys/sysctl.h> and the sysctl function
Linux 5.5 remove the system call in commit
61a47c1ad3a4dc6882f01ebdc88138ac62d0df03 ("Linux: Remove
<sys/sysctl.h>").  Therefore, the compat function is just a stub that
sets ENOSYS.

Due to SHLIB_COMPAT, new ports will not add the sysctl function anymore
automatically.

x32 already lacks the sysctl function, so an empty sysctl.c file is
used to suppress it.  Otherwise, a new compat symbol would be added.

319d2a7b60 Add GRND_INSECURE from Linux 5.6 to sys/random.h
This patch adds the GRND_INSECURE constant from Linux 5.6 to glibc's
sys/random.h.  This is also added to the documentation.  The constant
acts as a no-op for the Hurd implementation (as that doesn't check
whether the flags are known), which is semantically fine, while older
Linux kernels reject unknown flags with an EINVAL error.

Tested for x86_64.

b8de7980c0 Extended Char Intro: Use getwc in example (Bug 25626)
In the "Extended Char Intro" the example incorrectly uses a function
called wgetc which doesn't exist.  The example is corrected to use
getwc, which is correct for the use in this case.

70ba28f7ab Fix tst-pkey.c pkey_alloc return checks and manual
This test was failing in some powerpc systems as it was not checking
for ENOSPC return.

As said on the Linux man-pages and can be observed by the implementation
at mm/mprotect.c in the Linux Kernel source.  The syscall pkey_alloc can
return EINVAL or ENOSPC.  ENOSPC will indicate either that all keys are
in use or that the kernel does not support pkeys.
