Do not enable asynchronous cancellation in system. Fixes bug 14782.
We needlessly enabled thread cancellation before it was necessary.
As
only call that needs to be guarded is waitpid which is cancellation
point we could remove cancellation altogether.
we shouldn't check asynchronous cancellation on system.
[BZ #14782]
* tst-cancel-wrappers.sh: Remove system.
See commit 41b1792698 for testcase.
Note: while this works on s390x, the s390 code hangs when using -e.
But it hangs regardless of this code (the hang seems to occur before
the exit func is even called). I didn't look too closely at it as
it seems to be an issue external to this file, so this code shouldn't
make the situation any worse.

This patches fixes BZ#16430 by setting a different symbol for internal
GLIBC calls that points to ifunc resolvers. For PPC32, if the symbol
is defined as hidden (which is the case for gettimeofday and time) the
compiler will create local branches (symbol@local) and linker will not
create PLT calls (required for IFUNC). This will leads to internal symbol
calling the IFUNC resolver instead of the resolved symbol.
For PPC64 this behavior does not occur because a call to a function in
another translation unit might use a different toc pointer thus requiring
a PLT call.
ARM has an override of the test math/test-fpucw.c, to disable (for
soft-float testing) definitions of hard-float macros in fpu_control.h
that the header normally defines not only when building for
hard-float, but also when building for soft-float with _LIBC defined
so that libc code can dynamically test whether VFP hardware is
present. (_LIBC is defined when building tests, although ideally it
wouldn't be.)
The override doesn't work for the derived tests test-fpucw-*.c because
they use #include "" instead of <> to include test-fpucw.c, so always
get the math/ version instead of the ARM sysdeps override. This patch
changes them to use <> so the sysdeps override is effective.
(test-fpucw-ieee-static.c doesn't need a change because it includes
test-fpucw-ieee.c, which isn't itself being overridden, which in turn
includes test-fpucw.c with a #include changed by this patch.)
Tested for ARM (big-endian soft-float, non-VFP hardware).
* math/test-fpucw-ieee.c: Use <> in #include of test-fpucw.c.
* math/test-fpucw-static.c: Likewise.
addgetnetgrentX has a buffer which is grown as per the needs of the
requested size either by using alloca or by falling back to malloc if
the size is larger than 1K. There are two problems with the alloca
bits: firstly, it doesn't really extend the buffer since it does not
use the return value of the extend_alloca macro, which is the location
of the reallocated buffer. Due to this the buffer does not actually
extend itself and hence a subsequent write may overwrite stuff on the
stack.
The second problem is more subtle - the buffer growth on the stack is
discontinuous due to block scope local variables. Combine that with
the fact that unlike realloc, extend_alloca does not copy over old
content and you have a situation where the buffer just has garbage in
the space where it should have had data.
This could have been fixed by adding code to copy over old data
whenever we call extend_alloca, but it seems unnecessarily
complicated. This code is not exactly a performance hotspot (it's
called when there is a cache miss, so factors like network lookup or
file reads will dominate over memory allocation/reallocation), so this
premature optimization is unnecessary.
Thanks Brad Hubbard <bhubbard@redhat.com> for his help with debugging
the problem.
We needlessly enabled thread cancellation before it was necessary. As
only call that needs to be guarded is waitpid which is cancellation
point we could remove cancellation altogether.
The frame pointer register is rarely used for that purpose on ARM and
applications that look at the contents of the jmp_buf may be relying
on reading an unencrypted value. For example, Ruby uses the contents
of jmp_buf to find the root set for garbage collection so relies on
this pointer value being unencrypted. Without this patch the Ruby
testsuite fails with a segmentation fault.

The Translation Project has asked us to rename the
pot header file `header.pot' to something else. Their
scripts automatically look for pot files and the
file `header.pot' is not actually a pot file but a
header that we use when regenerating `libc.pot.'
This commit renames `header.pot' to `pot.header' to
avoid causing errors or complicating the TP project
scripts.
The truncl assembly implementation (sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/fpu/s_truncl.S)
returns wrong results for some inputs where first double is a exact integer
and the precision is determined by second long double.
Checking on implementation comments and history, I am very confident the
assembly implementation was based on a version before commit
5c68d40169 that fixes BZ#2423 (Errors in
long double (ldbl-128ibm) rounding functions in glibc-2.4).
By just removing the implementation and make the build select
sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_truncl.c instead it fixes tgammal
issues regarding wrong result sign.
This patch fixes bug 16408, ldbl-128ibm expm1l returning NaN for some
large arguments.
The basic problem is that the approach of converting the exponent to
the form n * log(2) + y, where -0.5 <= y <= 0.5, then computing 2^n *
expm1(y) + (2^n - 1) falls over when 2^n overflows (starting slightly
before the point where expm1 overflows, when y is negative and n is
the least integer for which 2^n overflows). The ldbl-128 code, and
the x86/x86_64 code, make expm1l fall back to expl for large positive
arguments to avoid this issue. This patch makes the ldbl-128ibm code
do the same. (The problem appears for the particular argument in the
testsuite because the ldbl-128ibm code also uses an overflow threshold
that's for ldbl-128 and is too big for ldbl-128ibm, but the problem
described applies for large non-overflowing cases as well, although
during the freeze is not a suitable time for making the expm1 tests
cover cases close to overflow more thoroughly.)
This leaves some code for large positive arguments in expm1l that is
now dead. To keep the code for ldbl-128 and ldbl-128ibm similar, and
to avoid unnecessary changes during the freeze, the patch doesn't
remove it; instead I propose to file a bug in Bugzilla as a reminder
that this code (for overflow, including errno setting, and for
arguments of +Inf) is no longer needed and should be removed from both
those expm1l implementations.
Tested powerpc32.
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_expm1l.c (__expm1l): Use __expl
for large positive arguments.
Examining MIPS test results showed an ABI test failure that I must
have missed in 2.18 testing: hard-float and soft-float o32 no longer
have the same set of symbols (because of the __mips_fpu_getcw and
__mips_fpu_setcw functions, present for hard-float only, used by
fpu_control.h for hard-float MIPS16) and so need separate ABI test
baselines (they always were ABI-incompatible - the function-calling
interface is different - but previously had the same set of symbols
and versions so didn't need separate baselines).
Tested for hard-float and soft-float o32.

This patch marks more libm tests as expected to fail for ldbl-128ibm
in non-default rounding modes. Given this, my expm1l fix
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-01/msg00135.html> and my
libgcc fix <http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-01/msg00157.html>
for spurious overflows, the remaining failures in test-ldouble.out
(for powerpc32 hard float) are small ulps, spurious underflow and
inexact exceptions (the former probably arising from libgcc bugs
though I haven't checked each case; the latter are barely meaningful
for this format anyway when basic arithmetic isn't correctly rounding,
though most of them are probably GCC bug 59412 which doesn't actually
involve long double), missing underflow exceptions from clog, ctan and
ctanh (probably one of the known bugs for another function), and logb
in round-downward mode (bug 887, though it's really a GCC bug that
we're not currently working around).
Tested for powerpc32 hard float.
* math/auto-libm-test-in: Mark various tests with
xfail-rounding:ldbl-128ibm.

This patch fixes bug 16407, spurious overflows from ldbl-128ibm coshl.
The implementation assumed that a high part (reinterpreted as an
integer) of the absolute value of the argument of 0x408633ce8fb9f87dLL
or more meant overflow, but the actual threshold has high part
0x408633ce8fb9f87eLL (and a negative low part). The patch adjusts the
threshold accordingly.
sinhl probably has the same issue, but I didn't get that far in adding
tests of special cases (such as just below and above overflow) before
the freeze and during the freeze is not a suitable time to add them
(as they'd require ulps to be regenerated again), so I'm not changing
that function for now; when I add more tests of special cases, we'll
discover whether sinhl indeed has this problem.
Tested powerpc32.
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/e_coshl.c (__ieee754_coshl):
Increase overflow threshold.
