PowerPC64 ELFv2 ABI 6/6: Bump ld.so soname version number
To avoid having a ELFv2 binary accidentally picking up an old ABI ld.so,
this patch bumps the soname to ld64.so.2.
In theory (or for testing purposes) this will also allow co-installing
ld.so versions for both ABIs on the same system. Note that the kernel
will already be able to load executables of both ABIs. However, there
is currently no plan to use that theoretical possibility in a any
supported distribution environment ...
Note that in order to check which ABI to use, we need to invoke the
compiler to check the _CALL_ELF macro; this is done in a new configure
check in sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc64/configure.ac,
replacing the hard-coded value of default-abi in the Makefile.

PowerPC64 ELFv2 ABI 5/6: LD_AUDIT interface changes
The ELFv2 ABI changes the calling convention by passing and returning
structures in registers in more cases than the old ABI:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2013-11/msg01145.html
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2013-11/msg01147.html
For the most part, this does not affect glibc, since glibc assembler
files do not use structure parameters / return values. However, one
place is affected: the LD_AUDIT interface provides a structure to
the audit routine that contains all registers holding function
argument and return values for the intercepted PLT call.
Since the new ABI now sometimes uses registers to return values
that were never used for this purpose in the old ABI, this structure
has to be extended. To force audit routines to be modified for the
new ABI if necessary, the patch defines v2 variants of the la_ppc64
types and routines.
In addition, the patch contains two unrelated changes to the
PLT trampoline routines: it fixes a bug where FPR return values
were stored in the wrong place, and it removes the unnecessary
save/restore of CR.

PowerPC64 ELFv2 ABI 4/6: Stack frame layout changes
This updates glibc for the changes in the ELFv2 relating to the
stack frame layout. These are described in more detail here:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2013-11/msg01149.html
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2013-11/msg01146.html
Specifically, the "compiler and linker doublewords" were removed,
which has the effect that the save slot for the TOC register is
now at offset 24 rather than 40 to the stack pointer.
In addition, a function may now no longer necessarily assume that
its caller has set up a 64-byte register save area its use.
To address the first change, the patch goes through all assembler
files and replaces immediate offsets in instructions accessing the
ABI-defined stack slots by symbolic offsets. Those already were
defined in ucontext_i.sym and used in some of the context routines,
but that doesn't really seem like the right place for those defines.
The patch instead defines those symbolic offsets in sysdeps.h,
in two variants for the old and new ABI, and uses them systematically
in all assembler files, not just the context routines.
The second change only affected a few assembler files that used
the save area to temporarily store some registers. In those
cases where this happens within a leaf function, this patch
changes the code to store those registers to the "red zone"
below the stack pointer. Otherwise, the functions already allocate
a stack frame, and the patch changes them to add extra space in
these frames as temporary space for the ELFv2 ABI.

PowerPC64 ELFv2 ABI 3/6: PLT local entry point optimization
This is a follow-on to the previous patch to support the ELFv2 ABI in the
dynamic loader, split off into its own patch since it is just an optional
optimization.
In the ELFv2 ABI, most functions define both a global and a local entry
point; the local entry requires r2 to be already set up by the caller
to point to the callee's TOC; while the global entry does not require
the caller to know about the callee's TOC, but it needs to set up r12
to the callee's entry point address.
Now, when setting up a PLT slot, the dynamic linker will usually need
to enter the target function's global entry point. However, if the
linker can prove that the target function is in the same DSO as the
PLT slot itself, and the whole DSO only uses a single TOC (which the
linker will let ld.so know via a DT_PPC64_OPT entry), then it is
possible to actually enter the local entry point address into the
PLT slot, for a slight improvement in performance.
Note that this uncovered a problem on the first call via _dl_runtime_resolve,
because that routine neglected to restore the caller's TOC before calling
the target function for the first time, since it assumed that function
would always reload its own TOC anyway ...

PowerPC64 ELFv2 ABI 2/6: Remove function descriptors
This patch adds support for the ELFv2 ABI feature to remove function
descriptors. See this GCC patch for in-depth discussion:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2013-11/msg01141.html
This mostly involves two types of changes: updating assembler source
files to the new logic, and updating the dynamic loader.
After the refactoring in the previous patch, most of the assembler source
changes can be handled simply by providing ELFv2 versions of the
macros in sysdep.h. One somewhat non-obvious change is in __GI__setjmp:
this used to "fall through" to the immediately following __setjmp ENTRY
point. This is no longer safe in the ELFv2 since ENTRY defines both
a global and a local entry point, and you cannot simply fall through
to a global entry point as it requires r12 to be set up.
Also, makecontext needs to be updated to set up registers according to
the new ABI for calling into the context's start routine.
The dynamic linker changes mostly consist of removing special code
to handle function descriptors. We also need to support the new PLT
and glink format used by the the ELFv2 linker, see:
https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2013-10/msg00376.html
In addition, the dynamic linker now verifies that the dynamic libraries
it loads match its own ABI.
The hack in VDSO_IFUNC_RET to "synthesize" a function descriptor
for vDSO routines is also no longer necessary for ELFv2.

PowerPC64 ELFv2 ABI 1/6: Code refactoring
This is the first patch to support the new ELFv2 ABI in glibc.
As preparation, this patch simply refactors some of the powerpc64 assembler
code to move all code related to creating function descriptors (.opd section)
or using function descriptors (function pointer call) into a central place
in sysdep.h.
Note that most locations creating .opd entries were already using macros
in sysdep.h, this patch simply extends this to the remaining places.

the TCB header as well. (It would be good if this went in with
or before the ELFv2 patches to ensure that this field will be
available always in the ELFv2 environment.)
The field needs to be added at the front of tcbhead_t structure
to avoid changing the ABI; see the recent discussion when adding
the EBB fields.

PowerPC64: Report overflow on @h and @ha relocations
This patch updates glibc in accordance with the binutils patch checked in here:
https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2013-10/msg00372.html
This changes the various R_PPC64_..._HI and _HA relocations to report
32-bit overflows. The motivation is that existing uses of @h / @ha
are to build up 32-bit offsets (for the "medium model" TOC access
that GCC now defaults to), and we'd really like to see failures at
link / load time rather than silent truncations.
For those rare cases where a modifier is needed to build up a 64-bit
constant, new relocations _HIGH / _HIGHA are supported.
The patch also fixes a bug in overflow checking for the R_PPC64_ADDR30
and R_PPC64_ADDR32 relocations.

PowerPC64: Fix incorrect CFI in *context routines
The context established by "makecontext" has a link register pointing
back to an error path within the makecontext routine. This is currently
covered by the CFI FDE for makecontext itself, which is simply wrong
for the stack frame *inside* the context. When trying to unwind (e.g.
doing a backtrace) in a routine inside a context created by makecontext,
this can lead to uninitialized stack slots being accessed, causing the
unwinder to crash in the worst case.
Similarly, during parts of the "setcontext" routine, when the stack
pointer has already been switched to point to the new context, the
address range is still covered by the CFI FDE for setcontext. When
trying to unwind in that situation (e.g. backtrace from an async
signal handler for profiling), it is again possible that the unwinder
crashes.
Theses are all problems in existing code, but the changes in stack
frame layout appear to make the "worst case" much more likely in
the ELFv2 ABI context. This causes regressions e.g. in the libgo
testsuite on ELFv2.
This patch fixes this by ending the makecontext/setcontext FDEs
before those problematic parts of the assembler, similar to what
is already done on other platforms. This fixes the libgo
regression on ELFv2.

[BZ #16195] Fix build warnings from systemtap probes in non-systemtap configurations
Joseph pointed out in the bug report (and in an earlier thread) that
systemtap probes cause build time warnings like the following:
../sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/e_atan2.c:602:4: warning: the address of
'p' will always evaluate as 'true' [-Waddress]
due to the fact that we're now passing non-weak variables to
LIBC_PROBE in the libm probes. This happens only on configurations
that do not enable systemtap. The macro definition of LIBC_PROBE in
this case only acts as a sanity checker to ensure that the number
parameters passed to LIBC_PROBE is equal to the argument count
parameter passed before it. This can be done in a much simpler manner
by just adding a macro definition for each number of arguments. I am
assuming here that we don't really want to bother with supporting
LIBC_PROBE with an indeterminate number of arguments and if there is a
need for a probe to have more data than what is currently supported (4
arguments), one could simply add an additional macro here.

MIPS: Add wrappers to get/setrlimit64 to fix RLIM64_INFINITY constant
RLIM64_INFINITY was supposed to be a glibc convention rather than
anything seen by the kernel, but it ended being passed to the kernel
through the prlimit64 syscall. On O32 and N32 ABIs, we therefore
end-up with different values on the userland and kernel side:
* On the kernel side, the value is defined for all architectures as
include/uapi/linux/resource.h:
#define RLIM64_INFINITY (~0ULL)
* On the GNU libc side, the value is defined in
ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/bits/resource.h:
For the O32 and N32 ABI:
# define RLIM64_INFINITY 0x7fffffffffffffffULL
and for the N64 ABI:
# define RLIM64_INFINITY 0xffffffffffffffffUL
This was not a problem until the prlimit64 syscall was wired in the
2.6.36 kernel. Given the GLIBC uses the prlimit64 syscall to implement
getrlimit64 and setrlimit64, pam_limits.so is setting the limits to
a very big value instead of infinity. As a normal user process can
later only decrease the value and not increase it, it will later get
and EPERM error when trying to set the value to infinity with setrlimit.
The GLIBC has this constant for more than 7 years, and as it is defined
in a header file, it means a lot of binaries are in the wild. This patch
fixes that by adding a wrapper to fix the value passed to or received
from the kernel, before or after calling the prlimit64 syscall.
