Previously, they were assumed to be in ISO-8859-1, and that the output
charset overlapped with ISO-8859-1 for the characters actually used.
However, this did not work as intended on many architectures even for
an ISO-8859-1 output encoding because of the char signedness bug in
lr_getc. Therefore, this commit switches to UTF-8 without making
provisions for backwards compatibility.
The following Elisp code can be used to convert locale definition files
to UTF-8:
(defun glibc/convert-localedef (from to)

((memq codepoint '(?/ ?\ ?< ?>))
(string ?/ codepoint))
((= codepoint ?\") "<U0022>")
(t (string codepoint)))))
(replace-match converted t)))))))

The array lr->buf contains characters, which can be signed. A 0xff
byte in the input could be incorrectly reported as EOF. More
importantly, get_string in linereader.c converts a signed input byte
to a Unicode code point using ADDWC ((uint32_t) ch), under the
assumption that this decodes the ISO-8859-1 input encoding. If char
is signed, this does not give the correct result. This means that
ISO-8859-1 input files for localedef are not actually supported,
contrary to the comment in get_string. This is a happy accident because
we can therefore change the file encoding to UTF-8 without impacting
backwards compatibility.
While at it, remove the \32 check for MS-DOS end-of-file character (^Z).

ISO C17, POSIX Issue 7, and ISO 30112 all allow the char*
types to be empty strings i.e. "", integer or char values to
be -1 or CHAR_MAX respectively, with the exception of
decimal_point which must be non-empty in ISO C. Note that
the defaults for mon_grouping vary, but are functionaly
equivalent e.g. "\177" (no further grouping reuqired) vs.
"" (no grouping defined for all groups).
We include a broad comment talking about harmonizing ISO C,
POSIX, ISO 30112, and the default C/POSIX locale for glibc.
We reorder all setting based on locale/categories.def order.
We soften all missing definitions from errors to warnings when
defaults exist.
Given that ISO C, POSIX and ISO 30112 allow the empty string
we change LC_MONETARY handling of mon_decimal_point to allow
the empty string. If mon_decimal_point is not defined at all
then we pick the existing legacy glibc default value of
<U002E> i.e. ".".
We also set the default for mon_thousands_sep_wc at the
same time as mon_thousands_sep, but this is not a change in
behaviour, it is always either a matching value or L'\0',
but if in the future we change the default to a non-empty
string we would need to update both at the same time.
Tested on x86_64 and i686 without regressions.

The handling of mon_decimal_point is incorrect when it comes to
handling the empty "" value. The existing parser in monetary_read()
will correctly handle setting the non-wide-character value and the
wide-character value e.g. STR_ELEM_WC(mon_decimal_point) if they are
set in the locale definition. However, in monetary_finish() we have
conflicting TEST_ELEM() which sets a default value (if the locale
definition doesn't include one), and subsequent code which looks for
mon_decimal_point to be NULL to issue a specific error message and set
the defaults. The latter is unused because TEST_ELEM() always sets a
default. The simplest solution is to remove the TEST_ELEM() check,
and allow the existing check to look to see if mon_decimal_point is
NULL and set an appropriate default. The final fix is to move the
setting of mon_decimal_point_wc so it occurs only when
mon_decimal_point is being set to a default, keeping both values
consistent. There is no way to tell the difference between
mon_decimal_point_wc having been set to the empty string and not
having been defined at all, for that distinction we must use
mon_decimal_point being NULL or "", and so we must logically set
the default together with mon_decimal_point.
Lastly, there are more fixes similar to this that could be made to
ld-monetary.c, but we avoid that in order to fix just the code
required for mon_decimal_point, which impacts the ability for C.UTF-8
to set mon_decimal_point to "", since without this fix we end up with
an inconsistent setting of mon_decimal_point set to "", but
mon_decimal_point_wc set to "." which is incorrect.

I've updated copyright dates in glibc for 2022. This is the patch for
the changes not generated by scripts/update-copyrights and subsequent
build / regeneration of generated files. As well as the usual annual
updates, mainly dates in --version output (minus csu/version.c which
previously had to be handled manually but is now successfully updated
by update-copyrights), there is a small change to the copyright notice
in NEWS which should let NEWS get updated automatically next year.
Please remember to include 2022 in the dates for any new files added
in future (which means updating any existing uncommitted patches you
have that add new files to use the new copyright dates in them).
I used these shell commands:

(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:

I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,
support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and
sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't
know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not.

This patch improves the user experience by looking at the magic value,
which is always written, but never checked. It should still be possible
to trigger a segmentation fault with crafted files, but this already
catch many cases.
Support a new directive 'codepoint_collation' in the LC_COLLATE
section of a locale source file. This new directive causes all
collation rules to be dropped and instead STRCMP (strcmp or
wcscmp) is used for collation of the input character set. This
is required to allow for a C.UTF-8 that contains zero collation
rules (minimal size) and sorts using code point sorting.
To date the only implementation of a locale with zero collation
rules is the C/POSIX locale. The C/POSIX locale provides
identity tables for _NL_COLLATE_COLLSEQMB and
_NL_COLLATE_COLLSEQWC that map to ASCII even though it has zero
rules. This has lead to existing fnmatch, regexec, and regcomp
implementations that require these tables. It is not correct
to use these tables when nrules == 0, but the conservative fix
is to provide these tables when nrules == 0. This assures that
existing static applications using a new C.UTF-8 locale with
'codepoint_collation' at least have functional range expressions
with ASCII e.g. [0-9] or [a-z]. Such static applications would
not have the fixes to fnmatch, regexec and regcomp that avoid
the use of the tables when nrules == 0. Future fixes to fnmatch,
regexec, and regcomp would allow range expressions to use the
full set of code points for such ranges.

We stopped adding "Contributed by" or similar lines in sources in 2012
in favour of git logs and keeping the Contributors section of the

[cursor]
... element_t <-> element_t <-> element_t <-> element_t

startp endp
At the end of the function we have:

endp
The cursor should be pointing at endp, the last element in the
doubly-linked list, otherwise when execution returns to the
caller we will start inserting the next line after <U007E>.
Subsequent operations end up unlinking the ellipsis end entry or
just leaving it in the list dangling from the end. This kind of
dangling is immediately visible in C.UTF-8 with the following
sorting from strcoll:
<U0010FFFF>
<U0000FFFF>

With the cursor correctly adjusted the end entry is correctly given
the right location and thus the right weight.

During testing of localedef running in a minimal container
there were several error cases which were hard to diagnose
since they appeared as strerror (errno) values printed by the
higher level functions. This change adds three new verbose
messages for potential failure paths. The new messages give
the user the opportunity to use -v and display additional
information about why localedef might be failing. I found
these messages useful myself while writing a localedef
container test for --no-hard-links.
Since the changes cleanup the code that handle codeset
normalization we add tst-localedef-path-norm which contains
many sub-tests to verify the correct expected normalization of
codeset strings both when installing to default paths (the
only time normalization is enabled) and installing to absolute
paths. During the refactoring I created at least one
buffer-overflow which valgrind caught, but these tests did not
catch because the exec in the container had a very clean heap
with zero-initialized memory. However, between valgrind and
the tests the results are clean.
The new tst-localedef-path-norm passes without regression on
x86_64.

The patch is non-exhaustive. Apart from architecture-specific code
for non-x86_64 architectures, it does not change sunrpc/xdr.c (legacy
code, probably should have such changes, but left to be dealt with

fall-through but not matching the form expected by
-Wimplicit-fallthrough=3 (the default level with -Wextra; my
inclination is to adjust those comments to match rather than
downgrading to -Wimplicit-fallthrough=1 to allow any comment), or one
place where I thought the implicit fallthrough was not correct and so
should be handled separately as a bug fix. I think the key thing to

Downstream distributions need consistent sets of hardlinks in
order for rpm to operate effectively. This means that even if
locales are built with a high level of parallelism that the
resulting files need to have consistent hardlink counts. The only
way to achieve this is with a post-install hardlink pass using a
program like 'hardlink' (shipped in Fedora).
If the downstream distro wants to post-process the hardlinks then
the time spent in localedef looking up sibling directories and
processing hardlinks is wasted effort.
To optimize the build and install pass we add a --no-hard-links
option to localedef to avoid doing the hardlink optimziation for
size.
Tested on x86_64 with 'make localedata/install-locale-files'
before and after. Without the patch we have files with 100+
hardlink counts. After the patch and running with --no-hard-links
all link counts are 1. This patch also alters the convenience
target 'make localedata/install-locale-files' to use the new
option.

Some languages (Slavic, Baltic, etc.) require a genitive case of the
month name when formatting a full date (with the day number) while
they require a nominative case when referring to the month standalone.
This requirement cannot be fulfilled without providing two forms for
each month name. From now it is specified that nl_langinfo(MON_1)
series (up to MON_12) and strftime("%B") generate the month names in
the grammatical form used when the month is a part of a complete date.
If the grammatical form used when the month is named by itself is needed,
the new values nl_langinfo(ALTMON_1) (up to ALTMON_12) and
strftime("%OB") are supported. This new feature is optional so the
languages which do not need it or do not yet provide the updated

Locales using SHIFT_JIS and SHIFT_JISX0213 character maps are not ASCII
compatible. In order to build locales using these character maps, and
have localedef exit with a status of 0, we add new option to localedef
to disable or enable specific warnings. The options are --no-warnings

The options take a comma-separated list of warning names. The warning
names are taken directly from the generated warning. When a warning
that can be disabled is issued it will print something like this: foo is
not defined [--no-warnings=foo]
For the initial implementation we add two controllable warnings; first
'ascii' which is used by the localedata installation makefile target to
install SHIFT_JIS and SHIFT_JISX0213-using locales without error; second
'intcurrsym' which allows a program to use a non-standard international
currency symbol without triggering a warning. The 'intcurrsym' is
useful in the future if country codes are added that are not in our
current ISO 4217 list, and the user wants to avoid the warning. Having
at least two warnings to control gives an example for how the changes
can be extended to more warnings if required in the future.
These changes allow ja_JP.SHIFT_JIS and ja_JP.SHIFT_JISX0213 to be
compiled without warnings using --no-warnings=ascii. The
localedata/Makefile $(INSTALL-SUPPORTED-LOCALES) target is adjusted to
automatically add `--no-warnings=ascii` for such charmaps, and likewise
localedata/gen-locale.sh is adjusted with similar logic.
v2: Bring verbose, be_quiet, and all warning control booleans into
record-status.c, and compile this object file to be used by locale,
iconv, and localedef. Any users include record-status.h.
v3: Fix an instance of boolean coercion in set_warning().

Recorded verbose messages no longer need to pass \n in their
message string since the record_verbose function adds \n to
the messages (like error and warnings do also). The avoids
seeing a double \n for verbose messages.

In "Is it OK to write ASCII strings directly into locale source files?"
https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2017-07/msg00807.html there is
universal consensus that we do not have to keep writing <Uxxxx> symbolic
characters in locale files.
Ulrich Drepper's historical comment was that symbolic characters were
used for the eventuality of converting the source files to any encoding
system. Fast forward to today and UTF-8 is the standard. So the
requirement of <Uxxxx> is hard to justify.
Zack Weinberg's excellent scripts are coming along we can use these to
find instances of human errors in the scripts:
https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2017-07/msg00860.htmlhttps://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2017-08/msg00136.html
It still won't be easy to distinguish from i for í, but that's still the
case for <Uxxxx> characters which humans can't read either.
Since we all agreed that we should be able to use non-symbolic (<Uxxxx>)
characters in locale files, the following change removes the verbose
warning that is raised if you use non-symbolic characters in the locale
file.

The builtin POSIX locale has "" as the international currency symbol,
but a non-builtin locale may not have such a blank int_curr_symbol.
Therefore to support non-builtin locales with similar "" int_curr_symbol
we adjust the LC_MONETARY parser to allow the normal 4-character
int_curr_symbol *and* the empty "" no symbol. Anything else remains
invalid.
Tested by building all the locales. Tested also with a custom C.UTF-8
locale with "" for int_curr_symbol.

The error and warning handling in localedef, locale, and iconv
is a bit of a mess.
We use ugly constructs like this:
WITH_CUR_LOCALE (error (1, errno, gettext ("\
cannot read character map directory `%s'"), directory));
to issue errors, and read error_message_count directly from the
error API to detect errors. The problem with that is that the
code also uses error to print warnings, and informative messages.
All of this leads to problems where just having warnings will
produce an exit status as-if errors had been seen.
To fix this situation I have adopted the following high-level
changes:
* All errors are counted distinctly.
* All warnings are counted distinctly.
* All informative messages are not counted.
* Increasing verbosity cannot generate *more* errors, and
it previously did for errors conditional on verbose,
this is now fixed.
* Increasing verbosity *can* generate *more* warnings.
* Making the output quiet cannot generate *fewer* errors,
and it previously did for errors conditional on be_quiet,
this is now fixed.
* Each of error, warning, and informative message has it's
own function to call defined in record-status.h, and they
are: record_error, record_warning, and record_verbose.
* The record_error function always records an error, but
conditional on be_quiet may not print it.
* The record_warning function always records a warning,
but conditional on be_quiet may not print it.
* The record_verbose function only prints the verbose
message if verbose is true and be_quiet is false.
This has allowed the following fix:
* Previously any warnings were being treated as errors
because they incremented error_message_count, but now
we properly return an exit status of 1 if there are
warnings but output was generated.
All of this allows localedef to correctly decide if errors,
or warnings were present, and produce the correct exit code.
The locale and iconv programs now also use record-status.h
and we have removed the WITH_CUR_LOCALE hack, and instead
have internal push_locale/pop_locale functions centralized
in the record routines.
