powerpc: Enforce compiler barriers on hardware transactions
Work around a GCC behavior with hardware transactional memory built-ins.
GCC doesn't treat the PowerPC transactional built-ins as compiler
barriers, moving instructions past the transaction boundaries and
altering their atomicity.
Instead of using the generic version of _dl_lookup_address, we use an
implementation more or less modeled after __canonicalize_funcptr_for_compare()

trampoline used to call _dl_runtime_resolve just before the global
offset table, then we call _dl_fixup to resolve the function pointer.
Then, we return the instruction pointer from the first word of the
descriptor.

successfully changes the personality if requested. The syscall
wrapper, however, still can return an error in the following cases:
- the value returned by the system call looks like an error
due to architecture limitations of 32-bit kernels;
- a personality greater than 0xffffffff is passed to the system call,
and the 64-bit kernel does not have commit v2.6.35-rc1-372-g485d527686850d68a0e9006dd9904f19f122485e
that would truncate this value to unsigned int;
- on sparc64, the value returned by the system call looks like an error
due to sparc64 kernel sign extension bug.
The solution is three-fold:
- move generic syscalls.list personality entry to generic 64-bit
syscalls.list file;
- for each 32-bit architecture that use negated errno semantics,
add a NOERRNO personality entry to their syscalls.list file;
- for sparc64 and 32-bit architectures that use dedicated registers
to flag syscall errors, add a wrapper around personality syscall;
if the system call return value is flagged as an error, this wrapper
returns the negated "would be errno" value, otherwise it returns
the system call return value; on sparc64, it also truncates the
personality argument to unsigned int before passing it to the kernel.

POSIX and C++11 require that a thread can destroy a mutex if no other
thread owns the mutex, is blocked on the mutex, or will try to acquire
it in the future. After destroying the mutex, it can reuse or unmap the
underlying memory. Thus, we must not access a mutex' memory after
releasing it. Currently, we can load the private flag after releasing
the mutex, which is fixed by this patch.
See https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13690 for more
background.
We need to call futex_wake on the lock after releasing it, however. This
is by design, and can lead to spurious wake-ups on unrelated futex words
(e.g., when the mutex memory is reused for another mutex). This behavior
is documented in the glibc-internal futex API and in recent drafts of the

grantpt: trust the kernel about pty group and permission mode
According to POSIX the grantpt() function does the following:
The grantpt() function shall change the mode and ownership of the
slave pseudo-terminal device associated with its master
pseudo-terminal counterpart. The fildes argument is a file descriptor
that refers to a master pseudo-terminal device. The user ID of the
slave shall be set to the real UID of the calling process and the
group ID shall be set to an unspecified group ID. The permission
mode of the slave pseudo-terminal shall be set to readable and
writable by the owner, and writable by the group.
Historically the GNU libc has been responsible to setup the permission
mode to 0620 and the group to 'tty' usually number 5, using the pt_chown
helper, badly known for its security issues. With the creation of the
devpts filesytem in the Linux kernel, this responsibility has been moved
to the Linux kernel. The system is responsible to mount the devpts
filesystem in /dev/pts with the options gid=5 and mode=0620. In that
case the GNU libc has nothing to do and pt_chown is not need anymore. So
far so good.
The problem is that by default the devpts filesystem is shared between
all mounts, and that contrary to other filesystem, the mount options are
honored at the second mount, including for the default mount options.
Given it corresponds to mode=0600 without gid parameter (that is the
filesystem GID of the creating process), it's common to see systems
where the devpts filesystem is mounted using these options. It is enough
to run a "mount -t devpts devpts /mychroot/dev/pts" to come into this
situation, and it's unfortunately wrongly used in a lot of scripts
dealing with chroots, or for creating virtual machines images.
When this happens the GNU libc tries to fix the group and permission
mode of the pty nodes, and given it fails to do so for non-root users,
grantpt() almost always fail. It means users are not able to open new
terminals.
This patch changes grantpt() to not enforce this anymore, while still
enforcing minimum security measures to the permission mode. Therefore
the responsibility to follow POSIX is now shared at the system level,
i.e. kernel + system scripts + GNU libc. It stops trying to change the
group, and makes the pty node readable and writable by the owner, and
writable by the group only when originally writable and when the group
is the tty one.
As a result, on a system wrongly mounted with gid=0 and mode=0600, the
pty nodes won't be accessible by the tty group, but the grantpt()
function will succeed and users will have a working system. The system
is not fully POSIX compliant (which might be an admin choice to default
to "mesg n" mode), but the GNU libc is not to blame here, as without the
pt_chown helper it can't do anything.
With this patch there should not be any reason left to build the GNU
libc with the --enable-pt_chown configure option on a GNU/Linux system.

This example was misleading, as the code would have undefined

Fix ldbl-128ibm logl inaccuracy near 1 (bug 19351).
The ldbl-128ibm implementation of logl is inaccurate for arguments

log(1+z), where z = x-1, it compares the square of z rather than z
itself with an epsilon value. This patch fixes that comparison, so
eliminating the test failures for inaccuracy of logl in such cases.

Use direct socket syscalls for new kernels on i386, m68k, microblaze, sh.
Now that we have __ASSUME_* macros for direct socket syscalls to use
them instead of socketcall when they can be assumed to be available on
socketcall architectures, this patch defines those macros when
appropriate for i386, m68k, microblaze and sh (for 4.3, 4.3, all
supported kernels and 2.6.37, respectively; the only use of socketcall
support on microblaze is it allows accept4 and sendmmsg to be
supported on a wider range of kernel versions).
David, it seems that 32-bit SPARC is the only architecture supported
by glibc that still lacks these direct syscalls. It would be good to
get them added to the SPARC kernel so we can eventually eliminate
socketcall support in glibc (and thereby just use entries in
sysdeps/unix/syscalls.list for most of these functions) when we can
assume new-enough kernels.
Tested for i386 (testsuite, and that installed shared libraries are
unchanged by this patch - not using a new enough kernel, so this
doesn't actually test much, but the i386 and m68k code is essentially
the same as that already in use for s390).

This is an unbounded stack allocation based on the length of the
argument. Furthermore, if the argument starts with an n-char-sequence
followed by ')', that n-char-sequence is wrongly treated as
significant for determining the payload of the resulting NaN, when ISO
C says the call should be equivalent to strtod ("NAN", NULL), without
being affected by that initial n-char-sequence. This patch fixes both
those problems by using the __strtod_nan etc. functions recently
factored out of strtod etc. for that purpose, with those functions
being exported from libc at version GLIBC_PRIVATE.

math: add LDBL_CLASSIFY_COMPAT support
If a platform does not define "long-double-fcts = yes" in its
Makefiles and it does define __NO_LONG_DOUBLE_MATH in its installed
headers, it will currently create exported symbols for __finitel,
__isinfl, and __isnanl that can't be reached from userspace by
correct use of the finite(), isinf(), or isnan() macros in <math.h>.
To avoid this situation, by default for such platforms we now no
longer export these symbols, thus causing appropriate link-time
errors. However, for platforms that previously exported these
symbols, we continue to do so as compat symbols; this is enabled
by adding LDBL_CLASSIFY_COMPAT to math_private.h for the platform.
For tile, remove the now-unnecessary exports of those functions from
libc and libm.
This patch adds a new feature for powerpc. In order to get faster access to
the HWCAP/HWCAP2 bits and platform number (i.e. for implementing
__builtin_cpu_is () / __builtin_cpu_supports () in GCC) without the overhead of
reading from the auxiliary vector, we now reserve space for them in the TCB.
This is an ABI change for GLIBC 2.23.
A new versioned symbol '__parse_hwcap_and_convert_at_platform' is available to
get the data from the auxiliary vector and parse it, and store it for later use
in the TLS initialization code. This function is called very early
(in _dl_sysdep_start () via DL_PLATFORM_INFO for the dynamic linking case, and
in __libc_start_main () for the static linking case) to make sure the data is
available at the time of TLS initialization.

Add comments for IBM930, IBM933, IBM935, IBM937, and IBM939 which
explain exactly what purpose these encodings have and provide a URL to
the upstream IBM database that further provides the details of the
encoding.
The tst-cancel20 open two pipes and creates a thread which blocks
reading the first pipe. It then issues a signal to activate the
signal handler which in turn blocks reading the second pipe end.
Finally the cancellation cleanup-up handlers are tested by first
closing the all the pipes ends and issuing a pthread_cancel.
The tst-cancel21 have a similar behavior, but use an extra fork
after the test itself.
The race condition occurs if the cancellation handling acts after the
pipe close: in this case read will return EOF (indicating side-effects)
and thus the cancellation must not act. However current GLIBC
cancellation behavior acts regardless the syscalls returns with
sid-effects.
This patch adjust the test by moving the pipe closing after the
cancellation handling. This avoid spurious cancellation if the case
of the race described.
Checked on x86_64 and i386.
