The lookup function implementation in
nss/nss_files/files-XXX.c:DB_LOOKUP has code to prevent that. It is
supposed skip closing the input file if it was already open.
/* Reset file pointer to beginning or open file. */ \
status = internal_setent (keep_stream); \
\
if (status == NSS_STATUS_SUCCESS) \
{ \
/* Tell getent function that we have repositioned the file pointer. */ \
last_use = getby; \
\
while ((status = internal_getent (result, buffer, buflen, errnop \
H_ERRNO_ARG EXTRA_ARGS_VALUE)) \
== NSS_STATUS_SUCCESS) \
{ break_if_match } \
\
if (! keep_stream) \
internal_endent (); \
} \
keep_stream is initialized from the stayopen flag in internal_setent.
internal_setent is called from the set*ent implementation as:
status = internal_setent (stayopen);
However, for non-host database, this flag is always 0, per the
STAYOPEN magic in nss/getXXent_r.c.
Thus, the fix is this:
- status = internal_setent (stayopen);
+ status = internal_setent (1);
This is not a behavioral change even for the hosts database (where the
application can specify the stayopen flag) because with a call to
sethostent(0), the file handle is still not closed in the
implementation of gethostent.

Fix use of half-initialized result in getaddrinfo when using nscd (bug 16743)
This fixes a bug in the way the results from __nscd_getai are collected:
for every returned result a new entry is first added to the
gaih_addrtuple list, but if that result doesn't match the request this
entry remains uninitialized. So for this non-matching result an extra
result with uninitialized content is returned.
To reproduce (with nscd running):
$ getent ahostsv4 localhost
127.0.0.1 STREAM localhost
127.0.0.1 DGRAM
127.0.0.1 RAW
(null) STREAM
(null) DGRAM
(null) RAW
Use NSS_STATUS_TRYAGAIN to indicate insufficient buffer (BZ #16878)
The netgroups nss modules in the glibc tree use NSS_STATUS_UNAVAIL
(with errno as ERANGE) when the supplied buffer does not have
sufficient space for the result. This is wrong, because the canonical
way to indicate insufficient buffer is to set the errno to ERANGE and
the status to NSS_STATUS_TRYAGAIN, as is used by all other modules.
This fixes nscd behaviour when the nss_ldap module returns
NSS_STATUS_TRYAGAIN to indicate that a netgroup entry is too long to
fit into the supplied buffer.
Provide correct buffer length to netgroup queries in nscd (BZ #16695)
The buffer to query netgroup entries is allocated sufficient space for
the netgroup entries and the key to be appended at the end, but it
sends in an incorrect available length to the NSS netgroup query
functions, resulting in overflow of the buffer in some special cases.
The fix here is to factor in the key length when sending the available
buffer and buffer length to the query functions.
aarch64: Merge __local_multiple_threads offset with memory reference
This also highlights that we'd been loading 64-bits instead of
the proper 32-bits. Caught by the linker as a relocation error,
since the variable happened to be unaligned for 64-bits.

misc/sys/xattr.h: guard against linux uapi header inclusion
If the glibc xattr.h header is included after the uapi header,
compilation fails due to an enum re-using a #define from the
uapi header. Protect against this by guarding the define and
enum inclusions against each other.

BZ #16529: Fix pedantic warning with netinet/in.h.
When compiling with pedantic the following warning is seen:
gcc -Wall -pedantic -O0 -o test test.c

/path/inet/netinet/in.h:111:21: warning: comma at end of \

It is valid C99 to have a trailing comma after the last item in
an enumeration. However it is not valid C90. If possible glibc
attempts to keep all headers C90 + long long without requiring
C99 features. In this case it's easy to fix the headers and it
removes the warning seem with -pedantic.

Fix tst-setgetname for Linux kernels < 2.6.33.
Support for /proc/self/task/$tid/comm as added in Linux 2.6.33,
therefore since the test tst-setgetname relies on this functionality
to operate we must skip the test in kernels < 2.6.33. We wrap the
checks with __ASSUME_PROC_PID_TASK_COMM such that in the future when
we move arch_minimum_kernel to 2.6.33 we can remove this code.
Fix infinite loop in ftell when writing wide char data (BZ #16398)
ftell tries to avoid flushing the buffer when it is in write mode by
converting the wide char data and placing it into the binary buffer.
If the output buffer space is full and there is data to write, the
code reverts to flushing the buffer. This breaks when there is space
in the buffer but it is not enough to convert the next character in
the wide data buffer, due to which __codecvt_do_out returns a
__codecvt_partial status. In this case, ftell keeps running in an
infinite loop.
The fix here is to detect the __codecvt_partial status in addition to
checking if the buffer is full. I have also added a test case that
demonstrates the infinite loop.
This patch creates implicit rules to match the abifiles if
abilist-pattern is defined in the architecture Makefile. This allows
machine specific Makefiles to define different abifiles names
(for instance *-le.abilist for powerpc64le).
