This patch makes libm-test.inc tests of most functions use ALL_RM_TEST
unless there was some reason to defer that change for a particular
function.
I started out planning to defer the change for pow (bug 16315), cexp /
ccos / ccosh / csin / csinh (likely fallout from exp, bug 16284) and
cpow (exact expectations for signs of exact zero results not wanted).
Testing on x86_64 and x86 showed additional failures for acosh, cacos,
catan, catanh, clog, clog10, jn, log, log10, log1p, log2, tgamma, yn,
so making the change for those functions was deferred as well, pending
investigation to show which of these represent distinct bugs (some
such bugs may already be filed) and appropriate fixing / XFAILing.
Failures include wrong signs of zero results, errors slightly above
the 9ulp bound (in such cases it may make sense for functions to set
round-to-nearest internally to reduce error accumulation), large
errors and incorrect overflow/underflow for the rounding mode (with
consequent missing errno settings in some cases). It's possible some
could be issues with test expectations, though I didn't notice any
that were obviously like that (I added NO_TEST_INLINE for cases that
were failing for ildoubl on x86 and where it seemed reasonable for
them to fail for the fast-math inlines).
There may of course be failures on other architectures for functions
that didn't fail on x86_64 or x86, in which case the usual rule
applies: file a bug (preferably identifying the underlying problem
function, in cases where function A calls function B and a problem
with function B may present in the test results for function A) if not
already in Bugzilla then fix or XFAIL.
Tested x86_64 and x86 and ulps updated accordingly.

As recently discussed
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-02/msg00670.html>, it
doesn't seem particularly useful for libm-test-ulps files to contain
huge amounts of data on ulps for individual tests; just the global
maximum observed ulps for each function, together with the
verification of exceptions, errno and special results such as
infinities and NaNs for each test, suffices to verify that a
function's behavior on the given test inputs is within the expected
accuracy. Removing this data reduces source tree churn caused by
updates to these files when libm tests are added, and reduces the
frequency with which testsuite additions actually need libm-test-ulps
changes at all.
Accordingly, this patch removes that data, so that individual tests
get checked against the global bounds for the given function and only
generate an error if those are exceeded. Tested x86_64 (including
verifying that if an ulps value is artificially reduced, the tests do
indeed fail as they should and "make regen-ulps" generates the
expected changes).

In 84ba214c, I removed some redundant sign computations and in the
process, I incorrectly got rid of a temporary variable, thus passing
the absolute value of the input to bsloww1. This caused #16623.
This fix undoes the incorrect change.
This patch moves tests of clog10 to auto-libm-test-in. Note that this
means gen-auto-libm-tests will now depend on the recent MPC 1.0.2
release which added a fix for a bug that made gen-auto-libm-tests hang
for clog10. (It still can't conveniently be used for cacos cacosh
casin casinh catan catanh csin csinh because of extreme slowness of
those functions for special cases in MPC; at least some slow cases of
csin / csinh are fixed in MPC trunk, but not in a release.)
Tested x86_64 and x86 and ulps updated accordingly.
* math/auto-libm-test-in: Add tests of clog10.
* math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated.
* math/libm-test.inc (clog10_test_data): Use AUTO_TESTS_c_c.

gen-auto-libm-tests has a bug in the logic for setting a sticky bit
based on the ternary value from MPFR: it is correct for positive
results, but for negative results mpz_setbit acts as if a two's
complement representation is used, whereas the low bit needs setting
based on the sign-magnitude representation GMP actually uses. (This
showed up in converting fma tests to use auto-libm-test-in /
gen-auto-libm-tests.)
This patch fixes the problem by negating the mpz_t value to set its
low bit. There are lots of changes to auto-libm-test-out (mainly 1ulp
fixes to ldbl-128 expected results), but only a few ulps updates are
needed on x86 / x86_64. In one case, a corrected expectation showed
up a spurious underflow exception where the correct result is slightly
outside the underflowing range.
Tested x86_64 and x86 and ulps updated accordingly.

In BZ #15605 fix with addding memset/memmove alias in symbol-hacks.h,
x32 symbol-hacks.h change was missing. Fixed by including
<sysdeps/generic/symbol-hacks.h> in x32 symbol-hacks.h.
This patch fixes bug 16356, bad results from x86 / x86_64 expl /
exp10l in directed rounding modes, the most serious of the bugs shown
up by my patch expanding libm test coverage. When I fixed bug 16293,
I thought it was only necessary to set round-to-nearest when using
frndint in expm1 functions, because in other cases the cancellation
error from having the resulting fractional part close to 1 or -1 would
not be significant. However, in expl and exp10l, the way the final
fractional part gets computed (something more complicated than a
simple subtraction, because more precision is needed than you'd get
that way) can result in a value outside the range [-1, 1] when the
argument to frndint was very close to an integer and was rounded the
"wrong" way because of the rounding mode - and the f2xm1 instruction
has undefined results if its argument is outside [-1, 1], so resulting
in the large errors seen. So this patch removes the USE_AS_EXPM1L
conditionals on the round-to-nearest settings, so all of expl, expm1l
and exp10l now get round-to-nearest used for frndint (meaning the
final fractional part can at most be slightly above 0.5 in
magnitude). Associated tests of exp and exp10 are added and testing
of exp10 in directed rounding modes enabled.
Tested x86_64 and x86 and ulps updated accordingly.

Various libm functions have inadequate test coverage in libm-test.inc
/ auto-libm-test-in - failing to cover all the usual special cases
(infinities, NaNs, zero, large and small finite values, subnormals) as
well as a reasonable range of ordinary inputs and, where appropriate,
inputs close to the thresholds for underflow and overflow.
This patch improves test coverage for real functions [a-c]* (with the
expectation of adding more coverage for other functions later).

This patch moves tests of ccos, ccosh, cexp, clog, csqrt, ctan and
ctanh to auto-libm-test-in, adding the required support to
gen-auto-libm-tests. Other TEST_c_c functions aren't moved for now
(although the relevant table entries are put in gen-auto-libm-tests
for it to know how to handle them): clog10 because of a known MPC bug
causing it to hang for at least some pure imaginary inputs (fixed in
SVN, but I'd rather not rely on unreleased versions of MPFR or MPC
even if relying on very recent releases); the inverse trig and
hyperbolic functions because of known slowness in special cases; and
csin / csinh because of observed slowness that I need to investigate
and report to the MPC maintainers. Slowness can be bypassed by moving
to incremental generation (only for new / changed tests) rather than
regenerating the whole of auto-libm-test-out every time, but that
needs implementing. (This patch takes the time for running
gen-auto-libm-tests from about one second to seven, on my system,
which I think is reasonable. The slow functions would make it take
several minutes at least, which seems unreasonable.)

math/gen-libm-test.pl has code to beautify names of various constants,
transforming the source form in libm-test.inc into the version
appearing in test names in libm-test-ulps files.
This has become decreasingly relevant over time for the M_* constants,
first as I changed the test names so only the arguments and not the
expected results appeared in them, then as tests have moved to
auto-libm-test-* so that automatically generated hex float constants
get used instead of M_* in test inputs.
This patch removes the beautification for all M_* constants. Tested
x86_64 and x86 and ulps updated accordingly. Even the one case where
this affected the name in the ulps files will disappear once complex
function tests are moved to auto-libm-test-*.

Bug 16293 is inaccuracy of x86/x86_64 versions of expm1, near 0 in
directed rounding modes, that arises from frndint rounding the
exponent to 1 or -1 instead of 0, resulting in large cancellation
error. This inaccuracy in turn affects other functions such as sinh
that use expm1. This patch fixes the problem by setting
round-to-nearest mode temporarily around the affected calls to
frndint. I don't think this is needed for other uses of frndint, such
as in exp itself, as only for expm1 is the cancellation error
significant.

This patch fixes bug 16338, ldbl-128 logl not handling subnormals
(with consequent inaccuracy for lgammal as well). The fix is simply
to use __frexpl when determining the exponent, as done already in
log2l and log10l. Given the lack of testing of small arguments to any
of the log* functions, appropriate tests are added for all of them.
Tested x86_64 and x86 and ulps updated accordingly, and spot tests
also run for mips64 to confirm the ldbl-128 fix.
Note that while this fixes lgammal inaccuracy for small positive
arguments, I suspect that there will still be problems with spurious

A sse42 version of strstr used pcmpistr instruction which is quite
ineffective. A faster way is look for pairs of characters which is uses
sse2, is faster than pcmpistr and for real strings a pairs we look for
are relatively rare.
For linear time complexity we use buy or rent technique which switches
to two-way algorithm when superlinear behaviour is detected.
Autoconf has been deprecating configure.in for quite a long time.

The pointer guard used for pointer mangling was not initialized for
static applications resulting in the security feature being disabled.
The pointer guard is now correctly initialized to a random value for
static applications. Existing static applications need to be
recompiled to take advantage of the fix.
The test tst-ptrguard1-static and tst-ptrguard1 add regression
coverage to ensure the pointer guards are sufficiently random
and initialized to a default value.
Resolves: #15465
The program name may be unavailable if the user application tampers
with argc and argv[]. Some parts of the dynamic linker caters for
this while others don't, so this patch consolidates the check and

This implementation speed up memset in several ways. First is avoiding
expensive computed jump. Second is using fact that arguments of memset
are most of time aligned to 8 bytes.

We add new memcpy version that uses unaligned loads which are fast
on modern processors. This allows second improvement which is avoiding
computed jump which is relatively expensive operation.

The EXTRACT_WORDS64 and INSERT_WORDS64 macros use movd for a 64-bit
operation. Somehow gcc manages to turn this into movq, but LLVM won't.

* sysdeps/x86_64/fpu/math_private.h (MOVQ): New macro.
(EXTRACT_WORDS64) Use where appropriate.
(INSERT_WORDS64) Likewise.
While these instructions accept memory operands, only one operand
may be a memory operand. Giving two operands xm constraints gives
the compiler the option of using memory for both operands, which
would result in invalid assembly code. Using x for all operands is
more appropriate, as most x86_64 calling conventions will pass the
arguments in registers anyway.

* sysdeps/x86_64/fpu/multiarch/s_fma.c (__fma_fma4): Replace xm
constraints with x constraints.
* sysdeps/x86_64/fpu/multiarch/s_fmaf.c (__fmaf_fma4): Likewise.
The value of PI is never exactly PI in any floating point representation,
and the value of PI/2 is never PI/2. It is wrong to expect cos(M_PI_2l)
to return 0, instead it will return an answer that is non-zero because
M_PI_2l doesn't round to exactly PI/2 in the type used.
That is to say that the correct answer is to do the following:
* Take PI or PI/2.
* Round to the floating point representation.
* Take the rounded value and compute an infinite precision cos or sin.
* Use the rounded result of the infinite precision cos or sin as the
answer to the test.
I used printf to do the type rounding, and Wolfram's Alpha to do the
infinite precision cos calculations.
The following changes bring x86-64 and x86 to 1/2 ulp for two tests.
It shows that the x86 cos implementation is quite good, and that
our test are flawed.
Unfortunately given that the rounding errors are type dependent we
need to fix this for each type. No regressions on x86-64 or x86.

Due to a typo repeated several times, this bug hasn't been fixed yet,
despite being marked as resolved in glibc 2.12.
* sysdeps/x86_64/strcmp.S: Replace all occurrences of NOT_IN_lib
with NOT_IN_libc.
