2009-06-05Optimize x86-64 strlen for SSE4.2.Ulrich Drepper
The SSE4.2 implementation is used in the DSO only. The patch also adds some infrastructure to be used in similar code later one.
2009-06-05Fix build problems with old binutils.Ulrich Drepper
Old binutils don't provide IFUNC and don't generate the section start/end symbols we expect. At least for now only add the initializer code for static IFUNC relocations if multi-arch support is requested.
2009-06-04More small optimizations for x86-64 strlen.Ulrich Drepper
2009-06-04Tiny strlen for x86-64 optimization.Ulrich Drepper
I didn't remove an instruction from a previous version in the final version.
2009-06-03Test for ELF IFUNC functionality.H.J. Lu
2009-06-03Terminate correct buffer.Ulrich Drepper
Little typo could cause additional characters to be printed.
2009-06-02Implement execvpe.Ulrich Drepper
There is some existing practice in other OSes and it's trivial to implement giving the existing code. Fixes BZ #10221.
2009-06-01Small optimization of STT_GNU_IFUNC handling.Ulrich Drepper
The test to call the indirect function now includes a subtest to checked whether the symbol is defined. When coming to that point this is almost always the case. The test for STT_GNU_IFUNC on the other hand rarely is true. Move it to the front means we don't have to perform the second test unless really necessary.
2009-06-01Better error message for invalid relocatio in static binary.Ulrich Drepper
2009-05-31Fix up sched_cpucount in x86-64.Ulrich Drepper
Now that static executables can handle IFUNC functions don't exclude optimization for sched_cpucount for !SHARED.
2009-05-31Finish IFUNC support for x86 and x86-64.Ulrich Drepper
Add support for the IRELAIVE relocation and IFUNC in static executables.
2009-05-31Simplify CPUID value handling.Ulrich Drepper
SO far Intel and AMD use exactly the same bits meaning the same things in CPUID index 1. Simplify the code. Should an architecture come along which doesn't use the same semantics then it must use a different index value than COMMON_CPUID_INDEX_1.
2009-05-31Move AC_CANONICAL_HOST before first use of $host and $build.Andreas Schwab
2009-05-29Fix errno for boundary conditions in 128-bit long double.Ulrich Drepper
Similar to the changes which went already in for the other formats, follow POSIX rules for errno.
2009-05-29Implement longjmp checking for s390.Ulrich Drepper
2009-05-29Compact cache info data structure for x86/x86-64.Ulrich Drepper
This saves about 1.5kB in the DSO.
2009-05-22Fix errno for IBM long double.Andreas Schwab
After the last addition to the math test suite PPC routines haven't been adjusted so far.
2009-05-22Add ___longjmp_chk support for powerpc{32,64}.Andreas Schwab
2009-05-22Implement accept4 for more archs using socketcall.Jakub Jelinek
So far accept4 was only supported on archs using socketcall for x86. This patch adds support for the remaining archs.
2009-05-21Handle -g option for IA-64 assembler.Ulrich Drepper
2009-05-21Fix IA-64 memchr read-ahead.Ulrich Drepper
The latest stratcliff extension exposed a bug in the IA-64 memchr which uses non-speculative loads to prefetch data. Change the code to use speculative loads with appropriate fixup. Fixes BZ 10162.
2009-05-21Add ____longjmp_chk support for IA-64.H.J. Lu
2009-05-21Add missing .text directives.H.J. Lu
The ____longjmp_chk functions on x86 and x86-64 were placed in .rodata.str1.1.
2009-05-21Don't define __ASSUME_ACCEPT4 for IA-64.Ulrich Drepper
2009-05-21Remove __NR_accept4 definition.Jakub Jelinek
This definition was meant to be removed before the checkin. It was used in the development.
2009-05-21Correct socketcall argument for accept4.Jakub Jelinek
The header had the old name (paccept).
2009-05-20Sun agreed to a change of the license for the RPC code to a BSD-like license.Ulrich Drepper
2009-05-20Danish translation update from translation team.Ulrich Drepper
2009-05-18Add ____longjmp_chk for SH.Kaz Kojima
Following the previous changes for x86 and x86-64.
2009-05-18Fix forced loop termination in nscd database lookup.Jakub Jelinek
There are two issues with the forced loop exit in the nscd lookup: 1. the estimate of the entry size isn't pessimistic enough for all databases, resulting potentially is too early exits 2. the combination of 64-bit process and 32-bit nscd would lead to rejecting valid records in the database.
2009-05-16Fix typos and pretty printing in sys/wait.h.Ulrich Drepper
2009-05-16Non-code changes to stdlib.h.Ulrich Drepper
2009-05-16Unify __WAIT_INT definition in stdlib.h and sys/wait.h.Ulrich Drepper
This fixes BZ #10159. The stdlib.h definition was out of date.
2009-05-16Move BLOCK_ALIGN* macros back.Ulrich Drepper
The move to nscd-client.h was only needed for some interim version of the patch. The final version doesn't need it. Undo the change.
2009-05-16Fix exit condition.Ulrich Drepper
The patch to bound the search in the nscd caches used a wrong exit condition. Fixed now.
2009-05-15Further robustify nscd database lookup.Ulrich Drepper
We can compute an absolute maximum for the number of elements which can fit into the currently mapped database. Stop after that many iterations.
2009-05-15Robustify libc-side nscd database reader.Jakub Jelinek
The nscd database mapped in processes can change at any time. We have to be more vigilant when it comes to using that memory. Test the data entries are valid in their entire size, don't read data again from memory once we verified it, and make sure the trailing pointer is not going off the deep end.
2009-05-15Avoid double definition of catomic_compare_and_exchange_val_acq.Jakub Jelinek
2009-05-15ChangeLog entries incorrectly applied.Ulrich Drepper
2009-05-15Add test for range error in expm1.Ulrich Drepper
2009-05-15Check for valid stack frame in longjmp.Ulrich Drepper
If longjmp restores the stack frame to an address which is beyond the stack frame at the time of the longjmp call it would install an uninitialized stack frame. If compiled with _FORTIFY_SOURCE defined, longjmp will now bail out in this situation.
2009-05-15Version info change for 2.11 development.Ulrich Drepper
2009-05-15Test DSOs for executable stack.Ulrich Drepper
Add a text program, built to run on the host, to check all newly built DSOs for executable stacks and fail if the stack information is missing or indicates executable stacks.
