Benchmark for testing pthread mutex locks performance with different
threads and critical sections.
The test configuration consists of 3 parts:
1. thread number
2. critical-section length
3. non-critical-section length
Thread number starts from 1 and increased by 2x until num of CPU cores
(nprocs). An additional over-saturation case (1.25 * nprocs) is also
included.
Critical-section is represented by a loop of shared do_filler(),
length can be determined by the loop iters.
Non-critical-section is similiar to the critical-section, except it's
based on non-shared do_filler().
elf: Fix DFS sorting algorithm for LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS with missing libraries (BZ #28868)
On _dl_map_object the underlying file is not opened in trace mode
(in other cases where the underlying file can't be opened,
_dl_map_object quits with an error). If there any missing libraries
being processed, they will not be considered on final nlist size
passed on _dl_sort_maps later in the function. And it is then used by
_dl_sort_maps_dfs on the stack allocated working maps:
222 /* Array to hold RPO sorting results, before we copy back to maps[]. */
223 struct link_map *rpo[nmaps];
224
225 /* The 'head' position during each DFS iteration. Note that we start at
226 one past the last element due to first-decrement-then-store (see the
227 bottom of above dfs_traversal() routine). */
228 struct link_map **rpo_head = &rpo[nmaps];
However while transversing the 'l_initfini' on dfs_traversal it will
still consider the l_faked maps and thus update rpo more times than the
allocated working 'rpo', overflowing the stack object.
As suggested in bugzilla, one option would be to avoid sorting the maps
for trace mode. However I think ignoring l_faked object does make
sense (there is one less constraint to call the sorting function), it
allows a slight less stack usage for trace, and it is slight simpler
solution.
The tests does trigger the stack overflow, however I tried to make
it more generic to check different scenarios or missing objects.

A comment says the -1 case should work as: "The -1 check is redundant because
since it implies that __glibc_safe_len_cond is true.". But this fails when:
* `__s > 1`
* `__osz == -1` (i.e. unknown size at compile time)
* `__l` is big enough
* `__l * __s <= __osz` can be folded to a constant

In this case `__l * __s <= __osz` is false, and `__whatever_chk_warn` will be

Some Linux interfaces never restart after being interrupted by a signal

is only sent if the target thread has cancelation enabled in
asynchronous mode.

should have been added to glibc 2.35 which contained the committed
fix. This moves the NEWS entry to correct section.
Went with version >= 11.0 since it covers most of the major features
and should be pretty universally accessibly.
There are some issues:
1. indention of preprocessor directives:
Unfortunately there doesn't appear to be a switch for a seperate
'IndentWidth' for preprocessor directives vs. normal code so we
are stuck either not indenting the directives or over-indenting
them. i.e:
Desired:
```
#ifndef A
# define B
#endif
```
Options:
```
#ifndef A
# define B /* Two spaces instead of one. */
#endif
#ifndef C
#define D /* No spaces. */
#endif
```
Chose to over-indent as it generally seems easier to script
halving all pre-processor indentations than counting the nested
depth and indenting from scratch.
2. concatenation of lines missing semi-colons:
Throughout glibc there are macros used to setup aliasing that are
outside of functions and don't end in semi-colons i.e:
```
libc_hidden_def (__pthread_self)
weak_alias (__pthread_self, pthread_self)
```
clang-format reformats lines like these to:
```
libc_hidden_def (__pthread_self) weak_alias (__pthread_self, pthread_self)

collision, and the way how the table is generated, mean that the values

variant, with no indication as to which.
As an additional side-effect, this makes the build non-reproducible, as
the error table generated is dependent upon the host filesystem
implementation.
To solve this issue, the libm-test-ulps-name files for both variants
have been modified to include their word size, so as to remove the

An alternative proposed was to merge the two variants' ULP values into a

linux: Constify rfv variable in dl_vdso_vsym
Compilers may decide to put the rfv variable in .data rather than on
the stack. It's slightly better to put it in .data.rel.ro.local
instead. Regardles of that, making it const may enable further
optimisations. Found when examining relative relocations (GOT ones
in particular) as part of enabling static-pie for PowerPC64.
The comments on strlen() don't match what the actual code does. They
describe an older algorithm which is no longer in use. This change
replace the old comments with new ones describing the algorithm used.
I am a first time contributor, and I believe there is no need for
copyright assignment, since the file changed is not in the shared
source files list.
This patch only changes comments, but for safety I have run the tests in
my x64 ubuntu machine, with the following results:

S390: Fix elf/tst-audit25[ab]
If glibc is configured with --disable-default-pie and build on
s390 with -O3, the tests elf/tst-audit25a and elf/tst-audit25b are
failing as there are additional la_symbind lines for free and malloc.
It turns out that those belong to the executable. In fact those are
the PLT-stubs. Furthermore la_symbind is also called for calloc and
realloc symbols, but those belong to libc.
Those functions are not called at all, but dlsym'ed in
elf/dl-minimal.c:
__rtld_malloc_init_real (struct link_map *main_map)
{
...
void *new_calloc = lookup_malloc_symbol (main_map, "calloc", &version);
void *new_free = lookup_malloc_symbol (main_map, "free", &version);
void *new_malloc = lookup_malloc_symbol (main_map, "malloc", &version);
void *new_realloc = lookup_malloc_symbol (main_map, "realloc", &version);
...
}
Therefore, this commit just ignored symbols with LA_SYMB_DLSYM flag. Reviewed-by: Adheemrval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>
In most cases the simple/stupid/builtin functions were in there to
benchmark optimized implementations against. Only in some cases the
functions are used to check expected results.
Remove these tests from IMPL() and only keep them in wherever they're
used for a specific purpose, e.g. to generate expected results.
This improves timing of `make subdirs=string` by over a minute and a
half (over 15%) on a Whiskey Lake laptop.
test-memcpy: Actually reverse source and destination
Looks like an oversight in memcpy tests resulted in s2 and s1 not being
swapped for the second iteration of the memcpy test. Fix it. Also fix
a formatting nit.
linux: Fix __closefrom_fallback iterates until max int (BZ#28993)
The __closefrom_fallback tries to get a available file descriptor
if the initial open ("/proc/self/fd/", ...) fails. It assumes the
failure would be only if procfs is not mount (ENOENT), however if
the the proc file is not accessible (due some other kernel filtering
such apparmor) it will iterate over a potentially large file set
issuing close calls.
It should only try the close fallback if open returns EMFILE,
ENFILE, or ENOMEM.

Remove -z combreloc and HAVE_Z_COMBRELOC
-z combreloc has been the default regadless of the architecture since
binutils commit f4d733664aabd7bd78c82895e030ec9779a92809 (2002). The
configure check added in commit fdde83499a05 (2001) has long been
unneeded.
We can therefore treat HAVE_Z_COMBRELOC as always 1 and delete dead code
paths in dl-machine.h files (many were copied from commit a711b01d34ca
and ee0cb67ec238).

Allow for unpriviledged nested containers
If the build itself is run in a container, we may not be able to
fully set up a nested container for test-container testing.
Notably is the mounting of /proc, since it's critical that it
be mounted from within the same PID namespace as its users, and
thus cannot be bind mounted from outside the container like other
mounts.
This patch defaults to using the parent's PID namespace instead of
creating a new one, as this is more likely to be allowed.
If the test needs an isolated PID namespace, it should add the "pidns"
command to its init script.

realpath: Bring back GNU extension on ENOENT and EACCES [BZ #28996]
The GNU extension for realpath states that if the path resolution fails
with ENOENT or EACCES and the resolved buffer is non-NULL, it will
contain part of the path that failed resolution.
commit 949ad78a189194048df8a253bb31d1d11d919044 broke this when it
omitted the copy on failure. Bring it back partially to continue
supporting this GNU extension.

x86: Small improvements for wcslen
Just a few QOL changes.
1. Prefer `add` > `lea` as it has high execution units it can run
on.
2. Don't break macro-fusion between `test` and `jcc`
3. Reduce code size by removing gratuitous padding bytes (-90
bytes).
