Define C23 header version macros
C23 defines library macros __STDC_VERSION_<header>_H__ to indicate
that a header has support for new / changed features from C23. Now
that all the required library features are implemented in glibc,
define these macros. I'm not sure this is sufficiently much of a
user-visible feature to be worth a mention in NEWS.
Tested for x86_64.
There are various optional C23 features we don't yet have, of which I
might look at the Annex H ones (floating-point encoding conversion
functions and _Float16 functions) next.
* Optional time bases TIME_MONOTONIC, TIME_ACTIVE, TIME_THREAD_ACTIVE.
See
<https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2023-June/149264.html>
- we need to review / update that patch. (I think patch 2/2,
inventing new names for all the nonstandard CLOCK_* supported by the
Linux kernel, is rather more dubious.)
* Updating conform/ tests for C23.
* Defining the rounding mode macro FE_TONEARESTFROMZERO for RISC-V (as
far as I know, the only architecture supported by glibc that has
hardware support for this rounding mode for binary floating point)
and supporting it throughout glibc and its tests (especially the
string/numeric conversions in both directions that explicitly handle
each possible rounding mode, and various tests that do likewise).
* Annex H floating-point encoding conversion functions. (It's not
entirely clear which are optional even given support for Annex H;
there's some wording applied inconsistently about only being
required when non-arithmetic interchange formats are supported; see
the comments I raised on the WG14 reflector on 23 Oct 2025.)
* _Float16 functions (and other header and testcase support for this
type).
* Decimal floating-point support.
* Fully supporting __int128 and unsigned __int128 as integer types
wider than intmax_t, as permitted by C23. Would need doing in
coordination with GCC, see GCC bug 113887 for more discussion of
what's involved.
The current implementation relies on setting the rounding mode for
different calculations (FE_TOWARDZERO) to obtain correctly rounded
results. For most CPUs, this adds significant performance overhead
because it requires executing a typically slow instruction (to
get/set the floating-point status), necessitates flushing the
pipeline, and breaks some compiler assumptions/optimizations.
The original implementation adds tests to handle underflow in corner
cases, whereas this implementation uses a different strategy that
checks both the mantissa and the result to determine whether the
result is not subject to double rounding.
I tested this implementation on various targets (x86_64, i686, arm,
aarch64, powerpc), including some by manually disabling the compiler
instructions.

- Compiler supports GCS branch protection.
- Test compiler supports GCS branch protection.
- Linker supports GCS marking of binaries.
- The CRT objects provided by the toolchain have GCS marking.
To check for the latter, we add new macro to aclocal.m4 that allows to

This patch introduces a new implementation originally written by Szabolcs
for musl, which utilizes mostly integer arithmetic. Floating-point
arithmetic is used to raise the expected exceptions, without the need for
fenv.h operations.
I added some changes compared to the original code:
* Fixed some signaling NaN issues when the 3-argument is NaN.
* Use math_uint128.h for the 64-bit multiplication operation. It allows
the compiler to use 128-bit types where available, which enables some
optimizations on certain targets (for instance, MIPS64).
* Fixed an arm32 issue where the libgcc routine might not respect the
rounding mode [1]. This can also be used on other targets to optimize
the conversion from int64_t to double.
* Use -fexcess-precision=standard on i686.
I tested this implementation on various targets (x86_64, i686, arm, aarch64,
powerpc), including some by manually disabling the compiler instructions.

mp_limb_t on aarch64, powerpc64le, x86_64, and riscv64. This basically
means using “long” instead of “long long.”

optimizations. The generic implementation now uses a static inline,

I kept that alpha, which uses out-of-the-line implementations and x86,
where there is no easy way to use the div{q} instruction from C code.
For the rest, the compiler generates good enough code.
The hppa also provides arch-specific implementations, but they are not
routed in “longlong.h” and thus never used.

Implement C23 const-preserving standard library macros
C23 makes various standard library functions, that return a pointer
into an input array, into macros that return a pointer to const when
the relevant argument passed to the macro is a pointer to const. (The
requirement is for macros, with the existing function types applying
when macro expansion is suppressed. When a null pointer constant is
passed, such as integer 0, that's the same as a pointer to non-const.)
Implement this feature. This only applies to C, not C++, since such
macros are not an appropriate way of doing this for C++ and all the
affected functions other than bsearch have overloads to implement an
equivalent feature for C++ anyway. Nothing is done to apply such a
change to any non-C23 functions with the same property of returning a
pointer into an input array.
The feature is also disabled when _LIBC is defined, since there are
various places in glibc that either redefine these identifiers as
macros, or define the functions themselves, and would need changing to
work in the presence of these macro definitions. A natural question
is whether we should in fact change those places and not disable the
macro definitions for _LIBC. If so, we'd need a solution for the
places in glibc that define the macro *before* including the relevant
header (in order in effect to disable the header declaration of the
function by renaming that declaration).
One testcase has #undef added to avoid conflicting with this feature
and another has const added; -Wno-discarded-qualifiers is added for
building zic (but could be removed once there's a new upstream tzcode
release that's const-safe with this C23 change and glibc has updated
to code from that new release). Probably other places in glibc proper
would need const added if we remove the _LIBC conditionals.
Another question would be whether some GCC extension should be added
to support this feature better with macros that only expand each
argument once (as well as reducing duplication of diagnostics for bad
usages such as non-pointer and pointer-to-volatile-qualfied
arguments).
Although binutils has supported --no-undefined-version for a long timei
(319416359200 back in 2002), --undefined-version was only added more

linux/termios: clear k_termios.c_cflag & CIBAUD for non-split speed [BZ 33340]
After getting more experience with the various broken direct-to-ioctl
termios2 hacks using Fedora 43 beta, I have found a fair number of
cases where the software would fail to set, or clear CIBAUD for
non-split-speed operation.
Thus it seems will help improve compatibility to clear the kernel-side
version of c_cflag & CIBAUD (having the same meaning to the Linux
kernel as the speed 0 has for cfsetibaud(), i.e. force the input speed
to equal the output speed) for non-split-speed operation, rather than
having it explicitly equal the output speed in CBAUD.
When writing the code that went into glibc 2.42 I had considered this
issue, and had to make an educated guess which way would be more
likely to break fewer things. Unfortunately, it appears I guessed
wrong.
A third option would be to *always* set CIBAUD to __BOTHER, even for
the standard baud rates. However, that is an even bigger departure
from legacy behavior, whereas this variant mostly preserves current
behavior in terms of under what conditions buggy utilities will
continue to work.
This change is in tcsetattr() rather than
___termios2_canonicalize_speeds(), as it should not be run for
tcgetattr(); that would break split speed support for the legacy

UMR when inspecting the passed file, which can be seen with valgrind.
Note returning ENAMETOOLONG early here for FILE names > NAME_MAX
will also avoid redundant processing of ENAMETOOLONG on each entry
in $PATH, after the change in [BZ #33626] is applied.
configure: Remove for redirection of built-in functions
The check was initially used to define HAVE_BUILTIN_REDIRECTION, which
enables or not libc_hidden_builtin_proto support. It was later removed
with 3ce1f2959437e952b9db4eaeed2407424f11a4d1, making the feature
mandatory. The configure check was kept as a transition knob.
Current minimum gcc/linker always supports this, as well as clang with
some extra care. Also, missing hidden_proto/hidden_def support is
already flagged in the check-localplt test.
Work around the clang limitation wrt inline function and attribute
definition, where it does not allow to 'add' new attribute if a
function is already defined:
clang on x86_64 fails to build s_fabsf128.c with:

If compiler does not support __USE_EXTERN_INLINES we need to route
fabsf128 call to an internal symbol.
Work around the clang limitation wrt inline function and attribute
definition, where it does not allow to 'add' new attribute if a
function is already defined:
Buildint with clang triggers multiple issue on how ifunc macro are
used:
compiler may redirect truncf calls to __truncf, instead of inlining it
(for instance, clang). The USE_TRUNCF_BUILTIN is 1 to indicate that
truncf should be inlined. In this case, we don't want the truncf
redirection:
1. For each math function which may be inlined, we define
With this change If USE_TRUNCF_BUILTIN is 0, we get
float (truncf) (float) asm ("__truncf");
truncf will be redirected to __truncf.
And for USE_TRUNCF_BUILTIN 1, we get:
float (inline_truncf) (float) asm ("__truncf");
In both cases either truncf will be inlined or the internal alias
(__truncf) will be called.
It is not required for all math-use-builtin symbol, only the one
defined in math.h. It also allows to remove all the math-use-builtin
inclusion, since it is now implicitly included by math.h.
For MIPS, some math-use-builtin headers include sysdep.h and this
in turn includes a lot of extra headers that do not allow ldbl-128
code to override alias definition (math.h will include
some stdlib.h definition). The math-use-builtin only requires
the __mips_isa_rev, so move the defintion to sgidefs.h.

Update COPYING, COPYING.LIB from gnulib, using gnulib file names
The new file names are COPYINGv2 and COPYING.LESSERv2. Lots of
copyright headers mention COPYING.LIB, so add a symbolic link.

should be fine.)

htl: move pthread_create to into libc
This is notably needed for the main thread structure to be always
initialized so that some pthread functions can work from the main thread
without other threads, e.g. pthread_cancel.
