2013-10-01Fix PI mutex check in pthread_cond_broadcast and pthread_cond_signalSiddhesh Poyarekar
Fixes BZ #15988. The check had a typo - it checked for PTHREAD_MUTEX_ROBUST_NP instead of PTHREAD_MUTEX_ROBUST_NORMAL_NP. It has now been replaced by the already existing convenience macro USE_REQUEUE_PI.

2013-09-28Revert "Remove references to non-existent content items in install.texi"Allan McRae
This reverts commit 583c76a7ce305d24e0625a22caed317b3e001d91 which breaks building info pages during "make install". Conflicts: ChangeLog

2013-09-23Check for integer overflow in cache size computation in strcollSiddhesh Poyarekar
strcoll is implemented using a cache for indices and weights of collation sequences in the strings so that subsequent passes do not have to search through collation data again. For very large string inputs, the cache size computation could overflow. In such a case, use the fallback function that does not cache indices and weights of collation sequences. Fixes CVE-2012-4412.
2013-09-23Fall back to non-cached sequence traversal and comparison on malloc failSiddhesh Poyarekar
strcoll currently falls back to alloca if malloc fails, resulting in a possible stack overflow. This patch implements sequence traversal and comparison without caching indices and rules. Fixes CVE-2012-4424.
2013-09-23BZ #15754: CVE-2013-4788Carlos O'Donell
The pointer guard used for pointer mangling was not initialized for static applications resulting in the security feature being disabled. The pointer guard is now correctly initialized to a random value for static applications. Existing static applications need to be recompiled to take advantage of the fix. The test tst-ptrguard1-static and tst-ptrguard1 add regression coverage to ensure the pointer guards are sufficiently random and initialized to a default value.

2013-09-10Clarify documentation cross-referenceAllan McRae
The end of the "Parsing of Floats" subsection currently reads: The GNU C Library also provides '_l' versions of these functions, which take an additional argument, the locale to use in conversion. *Note Parsing of Integers::. Split the final note as it is unrelated to the above comment and reference it with "See also" instead.
2013-09-10Update pt_chown sections of the manualAllan McRae
The pt-chown binary is discussed in the "Running make install" section without clarification of the needed configure option. Clarify this and simplfy the discription which is already covered in the "Configuring and compiling" section.

2013-09-03Mark success return value as volatile to work around reschedulingSiddhesh Poyarekar
Resolves #15921 The test case nptl/tst-cleanup2 fails on s390x and power6 due to instruction sheduling in gcc. This was reported in gcc: http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58034 but it was concluded that gcc is allowed to assume that the first argument to sprintf is a character array - NULL not being a valid character array.

2013-08-27[BZ #15897] dlfcn: do not mark dlopen/dlclose as leaf functionsMike Frysinger
Since the dlopen funcs might invoke a constructor that calls a func that is in the same compilation unit as the caller, we cannot mark them as leaf funcs. Similarly, dlclose might invoke a destructor that calls a func that is in the same compilation unit as the caller.
