The x86_64 and x86 libm-test-ulps files hadn't been regenerated from
scratch for some time, as evidenced by the presence of entries for
*_tonearest functions (those tests duplicated the
default-rounding-mode tests, and such duplicates are no longer run).
The aarch64, alpha, hppa, ia64, m68k, microblaze, powerpc, s390, sh,
sparc, tile files similarly could do with from-scratch regeneration as
evidenced by the presence of such entries. (Truncate the existing
file then run "make regen-ulps" and move the resulting file into
place.)
This patch regenerates the x86_64 and x86 files from scratch. It's
likely some of the reduced / removed ulps will need restoring because
they appear on processors or compiler versions other than the one I
tested on, but in such cases I'd like to first see if I can generate
new tests that show such ulps on the Intel processor I'm testing on,
to reduce the effects from different people using different processors
and compilers to regenerate the ulps.

In testing for x86_64 on an AMD processor, I observed libm test
failures of the form:
testing long double (without inline functions)
Failure: Test: log2_downward (0x2.b7e151628aed4p+0)
Result:
is: 1.44269504088896356633e+00 0xb.8aa3b295c17f67600000p-3
should be: 1.44269504088896356622e+00 0xb.8aa3b295c17f67500000p-3
difference: 1.08420217248550443400e-19 0x8.00000000000000000000p-66
ulp : 1.0000
max.ulp : 0.0000
Maximal error of `log2_downward'
is : 1 ulp
accepted: 0 ulp
These issues arise because the maximum ulps when regenerating on one
processor are not the same as on another processor, so regeneration on
several processors may be needed when updating libm-test-ulps to avoid
failures for some users testing glibc - but such regeneration on
multiple processors is inconvenient. Causes can be: on x86 and, for
x86_64, for long double, variation in results of x87 instructions for
transcendental operations between processors; on x86, variation in
compiler excess precision between compiler versions and
configurations; on any processor where the compiler may contract
expressions using fused multiply-add, variation in what contraction
occurs.
Although it's hard to be sure libm-test-ulps covers all ulps that may
be seen in any configuration for the given architecture, in practice
it helps simply to add wider test coverage to make it more likely
that, when testing on one processor, the ulps seen are the biggest
that can be seen for that function on that processor, and hopefully
they are also the biggest that can be seen for that function in other
configurations for that architecture. Thus, this patch adds some
tests of log2 that increase the ulps I see on x86_64 on an Intel
processor, so that hopefully future from-scratch regenerations on that
processor will produce ulps big enough not to have errors from testing
on AMD processors. These tests were found by randomly generating
inputs and seeing what produced ulps larger than those currently in
libm-test-ulps. Of course such increases also improve the accuracy of
the empirical table of known ulps generated from libm-test-ulps files
that goes in the manual.

extend_alloca was used to emulate VLA deallocation. The new version
also handles the res == 0 corner case more explicitly, by returning 0
instead of the (potentially undefined, but usually zero) system call
error.

sem_timedwait converts absolute timeouts to relative to pass them to
the futex syscall. (Before the recent reimplementation, on x86_64 it
used FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME, but not on other architectures.)
Correctly implementing POSIX requirements, however, requires use of
FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME; passing a relative timeout to the kernel does
not conform to POSIX. The POSIX specification for sem_timedwait says
"The timeout shall be based on the CLOCK_REALTIME clock.". The POSIX
specification for clock_settime says "If the value of the
CLOCK_REALTIME clock is set via clock_settime(), the new value of the
clock shall be used to determine the time of expiration for absolute
time services based upon the CLOCK_REALTIME clock. This applies to the
time at which armed absolute timers expire. If the absolute time
requested at the invocation of such a time service is before the new
value of the clock, the time service shall expire immediately as if
the clock had reached the requested time normally.". If a relative
timeout is passed to the kernel, it is interpreted according to the
CLOCK_MONOTONIC clock, and so fails to meet that POSIX requirement in
the event of clock changes.
This patch makes sem_timedwait use lll_futex_timed_wait_bitset with
FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME when possible, as done in some other places in
NPTL. FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME is always available for supported Linux
kernel versions; unavailability of lll_futex_timed_wait_bitset is only
an issue for hppa (an issue noted in
<https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/PortStatus>, and fixed by the
unreviewed
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-12/msg00655.html> that
removes the hppa lowlevellock.h completely).
In the FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME case, the glibc code still needs to check
for negative tv_sec and handle that as timeout, because the Linux
kernel returns EINVAL not ETIMEDOUT for that case, so resulting in
failures of nptl/tst-abstime and nptl/tst-sem13 in the absence of that
check. If we're trying to distinguish between Linux-specific and
generic-futex NPTL code, I suppose having this in an nptl/ file isn't
ideal, but there doesn't seem to be any better place at present.
It's not possible to add a testcase for this issue to the testsuite
because of the requirement to change the system clock as part of a
test (this is a case where testing would require some form of
container, with root in that container, and one whose CLOCK_REALTIME
is isolated from that of the host; I'm not sure what forms of
containers, short of a full virtual machine, provide that clock
isolation).
Tested for x86_64. Also tested for powerpc with the testcase included
in the bug.

(futex_abstimed_wait)
[__ASSUME_FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME && lll_futex_timed_wait_bitset]:

of lll_futex_timed_wait.
If xports is NULL in xprt_register we malloc it but if sock >
_rpc_dtablesize() that memory does not get initialised and may in theory
contain any value. Later we make a conditional jump in svc_getreq_common
based on the uninitialised memory and this caused a general protection
fault in rpc.statd on an older version of glibc but this code has not
changed since that version.

In bug 14906 the user complains that the inotify support in nscd
is not sufficient when it comes to detecting changes in the
configurationfiles that should be watched for the various databases.
The current nscd implementation uses inotify to watch for changes in
the configuration files, but adds watches only for IN_DELETE_SELF and
IN_MODIFY. These watches are insufficient to cover even the most basic
uses by a system administrator. For example using emacs or vim to edit
a configuration file should trigger a reload but it might not if
the editors use move to atomically update the file. This atomic update
changes the inode and thus removes the notification on the file (as
inotify is based on inodes). Thus the inotify support in nscd for
configuration files is insufficient to account for the average use
cases of system administrators and users.
The inotify support is significantly enhanced and described here:
https://www.sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-02/msg00504.html
Tested on x86_64 with and without inotify support.
This patch makes soft-fp use static assertions in place of conditional
calls to abort, in places where there are checks for conditions (on
the types for which a macro is used) that the code is not prepared to
handle. The fallback definition of _FP_STATIC_ASSERT (for kernel use
only, as only relevant to compilers not supported for building glibc)
is as in misc/sys/cdefs.h.
This means that soft-fp only ever calls abort for _FP_UNREACHABLE
calls in builds with GCC versions before 4.5. Thus, there is no need
for an abort declaration or <stdlib.h> include, since the kernel code
handles defining abort as a macro itself - and so this avoids any need
for an __KERNEL__ condition on the abort declaration to avoid it
breaking with the kernel's macro definition. That is, this patch is
intended to make glibc's soft-fp code suitable for kernel use with no
kernel-local changes to the soft-fp code needed at all.
Tested for powerpc-nofpu that installed stripped shared libraries are
unchanged by the patch. One explicit <stdlib.h> include had to be
added to a file that was relying on the include from soft-fp.h.
* soft-fp/soft-fp.h (_FP_STATIC_ASSERT): New macro.
[_LIBC]: Do not include <stdlib.h>.
[!_LIBC] (abort): Remove declaration.
* soft-fp/op-2.h (_FP_MUL_MEAT_2_120_240_double): Use
_FP_STATIC_ASSERT instead of conditionally calling abort.
* soft-fp/op-common.h (_FP_FROM_INT): Likewise.

(FP_TRUNC): Likewise.

ldconfig is using an aux-cache to speed up the ld.so.cache update. It
is read by mmaping the file to a structure which contains data offsets
used as pointers. As they are not checked, it is not hard to get
ldconfig to segfault with a corrupted file. This happens for instance if
the file is truncated, which is common following a filesystem check
following a system crash.
This can be reproduced for example by truncating the file to roughly
half of it's size.
There is already some code in elf/cache.c (load_aux_cache) to check
for a corrupted aux cache, but it happens to be broken and not enough.
The test (aux_cache->nlibs >= aux_cache_size) compares the number of
libs entry with the cache size. It's a non sense, as it basically
assumes that each library entry is a 1 byte... Instead this commit
computes the theoretical cache size using the headers and compares it
to the real size.
With AIX port deprecated there is no need to check/define
HAVE_ASM_GLOBAL_DOT_NAME anymore since the current minimum binutils
supported (2.22) does not emit global symbol with dot.
This patch removes all the HAVE_ASM_GLOBAL_DOT_NAME definition and
checks for powerpc64 port.
The function feupdateenv has been fixed to correctly handle FE_DFL_ENV
and FE_NOMASK_ENV.
The fesetexceptflag function has been fixed to correctly handle setting
the new flags instead of just OR-ing the existing flags.
This fixes the test-fenv-return and test-fenvinline failures on hppa.
The constraints in the inline assembly in feholdexcept and fesetenv
are incorrect. The assembly modifies the buffer pointer, but doesn't
express that in the constraints. The simple fix is to remove the
modification of the buffer pointer which is no longer required by
the existing code, and adjust the one constraint that did express
the modification of bufptr.
The change fixes test-fenv when glibc is compiled with recent gcc.
This patch makes soft-fp use a new macro _FP_UNREACHABLE in place of
calling abort in unreachable default cases of switch statements.
_FP_UNREACHABLE expands to call __builtin_unreachable for GCC 4.5 and
later; the fallback to abort is thus only for kernel use.
Tested for powerpc-nofpu that installed stripped shared libraries are
unchanged by this patch. Also tested with the math/ tests for mips64
(in the case of fma there *was* previously an abort call generated,
unlike for the other operations - one switch only deals with a subset
of classes for one operand based on what could have been generated in
the earlier part of fma, whereas the other switches deal with all
combinations of two classes - and this is apparently too complicated
for the default case to have been optimized away).
* soft-fp/soft-fp.h (_FP_UNREACHABLE): New macro.
* soft-fp/op-common.h (_FP_MUL): Use _FP_UNREACHABLE instead of
abort.
(_FP_FMA): Likewise.
(_FP_DIV): Likewise.
This patch makes soft-fp headers consistently use multiple-include
guards, something previously done mainly only in the Linux kernel
version. The guard macros aren't the same as those used in the Linux
kernel, but there seems to be enough variation in such guards in Linux
kernel code that hopefully this version will be acceptable there.
Tested for powerpc-nofpu that installed stripped shared libraries are
unchanged by this patch.
