2015-03-13Enhance nscd's inotify support (Bug 14906).Carlos O'Donell
In bug 14906 the user complains that the inotify support in nscd is not sufficient when it comes to detecting changes in the configurationfiles that should be watched for the various databases. The current nscd implementation uses inotify to watch for changes in the configuration files, but adds watches only for IN_DELETE_SELF and IN_MODIFY. These watches are insufficient to cover even the most basic uses by a system administrator. For example using emacs or vim to edit a configuration file should trigger a reload but it might not if the editors use move to atomically update the file. This atomic update changes the inode and thus removes the notification on the file (as inotify is based on inodes). Thus the inotify support in nscd for configuration files is insufficient to account for the average use cases of system administrators and users. The inotify support is significantly enhanced and described here: https://www.sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-02/msg00504.html Tested on x86_64 with and without inotify support.
2015-03-12S/390: Fix setcontext/swapcontext which are not restoring sigmask.Stefan Liebler
2015-03-11Fix ldconfig segmentation fault with corrupted cache (Bug 18093).Aurelien Jarno
ldconfig is using an aux-cache to speed up the ld.so.cache update. It is read by mmaping the file to a structure which contains data offsets used as pointers. As they are not checked, it is not hard to get ldconfig to segfault with a corrupted file. This happens for instance if the file is truncated, which is common following a filesystem check following a system crash. This can be reproduced for example by truncating the file to roughly half of it's size. There is already some code in elf/cache.c (load_aux_cache) to check for a corrupted aux cache, but it happens to be broken and not enough. The test (aux_cache->nlibs >= aux_cache_size) compares the number of libs entry with the cache size. It's a non sense, as it basically assumes that each library entry is a 1 byte... Instead this commit computes the theoretical cache size using the headers and compares it to the real size.

2015-03-11hppa: Fix feupdateenv and fesetexceptflag (Bug 18111).Carlos O'Donell
The function feupdateenv has been fixed to correctly handle FE_DFL_ENV and FE_NOMASK_ENV. The fesetexceptflag function has been fixed to correctly handle setting the new flags instead of just OR-ing the existing flags. This fixes the test-fenv-return and test-fenvinline failures on hppa.
2015-03-11hppa: Fix feholdexcpt and fesetenv (Bug 18110).John David Anglin
The constraints in the inline assembly in feholdexcept and fesetenv are incorrect. The assembly modifies the buffer pointer, but doesn't express that in the constraints. The simple fix is to remove the modification of the buffer pointer which is no longer required by the existing code, and adjust the one constraint that did express the modification of bufptr. The change fixes test-fenv when glibc is compiled with recent gcc.

2015-03-02Correct __ASSUME_PRLIMIT64 for hppa/microblaze/sh (bug 17779).Joseph Myers
__ASSUME_PRLIMIT64 is defined in kernel-features.h for kernels 2.6.36 and later, but hppa, microblaze and sh did not add the prlimit64 syscall until 2.6.37. This patch adds corresponding undefines of __ASSUME_PRLIMIT64 to those architectures' kernel-features.h files. (This concludes the kernel-features.h fixes arising out of the review - limited to macros defined in the architecture-independent kernel-features.h file - I did in connection with the move to 2.6.32 minimum kernel version. For that subset of macros - I didn't check any purely architecture-specific macros - I think they are now defined for the correct kernel versions on each architecture after this patch.)

2015-02-27Fix ldbl-96, ldbl-128ibm atanhl inaccuracy (bug 18046, bug 18047).Joseph Myers
The threshold in ldbl-96 atanhl for when to return the argument, 0x1p-28, is a bit too big, and that in ldbl-128ibm atanhl is much too big (the relevant condition being x^3/3 being < 0.5ulp of x), resulting in errors a bit above the limits of those considered acceptable in glibc in the ldbl-96 case, and in large errors in the ldbl-128ibm case. This patch changes those implementations to use more appropriate thresholds and adds tests around the thresholds for various formats. Tested for x86_64, x86 and powerpc. x86_64 and x86 ulps updated accordingly.

2015-02-26Fix ldbl-128/ldbl-128ibm acosl inaccuracy (bug 18038, bug 18039).Joseph Myers
The ldbl-128 and ldbl-128ibm implementations of acosl have similar bugs, using a threshold of 0x1p-57L to determine when they just return pi/2. Since the result pi/2 - asinl (x) is roughly pi/2 - x for small x, the relevant cut-off is actually x being < 0.5ulp of 1. This patch fixes the implementations to use that cut-off and adds tests of small acos arguments. Tested for powerpc and mips64. Also tested for x86_64 and x86; no ulps updates needed. [BZ #18038] [BZ #18039] * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/e_acosl.c (__ieee754_acosl): Only return pi/2 for arguments below 0x1p-113L. * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/e_acosl.c (__ieee754_acosl): Only return pi/2 for arguments below 0x1p-106L. * math/auto-libm-test-in: Add more tests of acos. * math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated.
2015-02-26Fix asin missing underflows (bug 16351).Joseph Myers
Similar to various other bugs in this area, some asin implementations do not raise the underflow exception for subnormal arguments, when the result is tiny and inexact. This patch forces the exception in a similar way to previous fixes. Tested for x86_64, x86, powerpc and mips64. [BZ #16351] * sysdeps/i386/fpu/e_asin.S (dbl_min): New object. (MO): New macro.

2015-02-26Fix ldbl-128ibm logbl near powers of 2 (bug 18030).Joseph Myers
The ldbl-128ibm implementation of logbl produces incorrect results when the high part of the argument is a power of 2 and the low part a nonzero number with the opposite sign (and so the returned exponent should be 1 less than that of the high part). For example, logbl (0x1.ffffffffffffffp1L) returns 2 but should return 1. (This is similar to (fixed) bug 16740 for frexpl, and (fixed) bug 18029 for ilogbl.) This patch adds checks for that case. Tested for powerpc. [BZ #18030] * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_logbl.c (__logbl): Adjust exponent of power of 2 down when low part has opposite sign. * math/libm-test.inc (logb_test_data): Add more tests.

2015-02-26BZ #15969: search locale archive again after alias expansionAlexandre Oliva

2015-02-25Fix ldbl-128ibm asinhl inaccuracy (bug 18020).Joseph Myers
The ldbl-128ibm implementation of asinhl uses cut-offs of 0x1p28 and 0x1p-29 to determine when to use simpler formulas that avoid possible overflow / underflow. Both those cut-offs are inappropriate for this format, resulting in large errors. This patch changes the code to use more appropriate cut-offs of 0x1p56 and 0x1p-56, adding tests around the cut-offs for various floating-point formats. Tested for powerpc. Also tested for x86_64 and x86 and updated ulps. [BZ #18020] * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_asinhl.c (__asinhl): Use 2**56 and 2**-56 not 2**28 and 2**-29 as thresholds for simpler formulas. * math/auto-libm-test-in: Add more tests of asinh. * math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated. * sysdeps/i386/fpu/libm-test-ulps: Update. * sysdeps/x86_64/fpu/libm-test-ulps: Likewise.
2015-02-25Fix ldbl-128ibm acoshl inaccuracy (bug 18019).Joseph Myers
The ldbl-128ibm implementation of acoshl uses a cut-off of 0x1p28 to determine when to use log(x) + log(2) as a formula. That cut-off is too small for this format, resulting in large errors. This patch changes it to a more appropriate cut-off of 0x1p56, adding tests around the cut-offs for various floating-point formats. Tested for powerpc. Also tested for x86_64 and x86 and updated ulps.

2015-02-24Fix x86/x86_64 scalb (qNaN, -Inf) (bug 16783).Joseph Myers
Various x86 / x86_64 versions of scalb / scalbf / scalbl produce spurious "invalid" exceptions for (qNaN, -Inf) arguments, because this is wrongly handled like (+/-Inf, -Inf) which *should* raise such an exception. (In fact the NaN case of the code determining whether to quietly return a zero or a NaN for second argument -Inf was accidentally dead since the code had been made to return a NaN with exception.) This patch fixes the code to do the proper test for an infinity as distinct from a NaN. (Since the existing code does nothing to distinguish qNaNs and sNaNs here, this patch doesn't either. If in future we systematically implement proper sNaN semantics following TS 18661-1:2014, there will be lots of bugs to address - Thomas found lots of issues with his patch <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-ports/2013-04/msg00008.html> to add SNaN tests (which never went in and would now require significant reworking).)

2015-02-24Fix BZ #17916 - fopen unbounded stack usage for ccs= modesPaul Pluzhnikov
2015-02-24linux: open and openat ignore 'mode' with O_TMPFILE in flagsEric Rannaud
Both open and openat load their last argument 'mode' lazily, using va_arg() only if O_CREAT is found in oflag. This is wrong, mode is also necessary if O_TMPFILE is in oflag. By chance on x86_64, the problem wasn't evident when using O_TMPFILE with open, as the 3rd argument of open, even when not loaded with va_arg, is left untouched in RDX, where the syscall expects it. However, openat was not so lucky, and O_TMPFILE couldn't be used: mode is the 4th argument, in RCX, but the syscall expects its 4th argument in a different register than the glibc wrapper, in R10. Introduce a macro __OPEN_NEEDS_MODE (oflag) to test if either O_CREAT or O_TMPFILE is set in oflag. Tested on Linux x86_64.

2015-02-18Fix atan / atan2 missing underflows (bug 15319).Joseph Myers
This patch fixes bug 15319, missing underflows from atan / atan2 when the result of atan is very close to its small argument (or that of atan2 is very close to the ratio of its arguments, which may be an exact division). The usual approach of doing an underflowing computation if the computed result is subnormal is followed. For 32-bit x86, there are extra complications: the inline __ieee754_atan2 in bits/mathinline.h needs to be disabled for float and double because other libm functions using it generally rely on getting proper underflow exceptions from it, while the out-of-line functions have to remove excess range and precision from the underflowing result so as to return an exact 0 in the case where errno should be set for underflow to 0. (The failures I saw without that are similar to those Carlos reported for other functions, where I haven't seen a response to <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-01/msg00485.html> confirming if my diagnosis is correct. Arguably all libm functions with float and double returns should remove excess range and precision, but that's a separate matter.) The x86_64 long double case reported in a comment in bug 15319 is not a bug (it's an argument of LDBL_MIN, and x86_64 is an after-rounding architecture so the correct IEEE result is not to raise underflow in the given rounding mode, in addition to treating the result as an exact LDBL_MIN being within the newly clarified documentation of accuracy goals). I'm presuming that the fpatan instruction can be trusted to raise appropriate exceptions when the (long double) result underflows (after rounding) and so no changes are needed for x86 / x86_64 long double functions here; empirically this is the case for the cases covered in the testsuite, on my system. Tested for x86_64, x86, powerpc and mips64. Only 32-bit x86 needs ulps updates (for the changes to inlines meaning some functions no longer get excess precision from their __ieee754_atan2* calls).

2015-02-18Fix posix_spawn getrlimit64 namespace (bug 17991).Joseph Myers
posix_spawn (a standard POSIX function) brings in a use of getrlimit64 (not a standard POSIX function). This patch fixes this by using __getrlimit64 and making getrlimit64 a weak alias. This is more complicated than some such changes because of files that define getrlimit64 in their own way using symbol versioning after including the main sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/getrlimit64.c with a getrlimit macro defined. There are various existing patterns for such cases in glibc; the one I've used here is that a getrlimit64 macro disables the weak_alias / libc_hidden_weak calls, leaving it to the including file to define the getrlimit64 name in whatever way is appropriate. Tested for x86_64 and x86 that installed stripped shared libraries are unchanged by this patch. [BZ #17991] * include/sys/resource.h (__getrlimit64): Declare.

2015-02-17Fix sign of remquo zero remainder in round-downward mode (bug 17987).Joseph Myers
Various remquo implementations produce a zero remainder with the wrong sign (a zero remainder should always have the sign of the first argument, as specified in IEEE 754) in round-downward mode, resulting from the sign of 0 - 0. This patch checks for zero results and fixes their sign accordingly. Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 and powerpc. [BZ #17987] * sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/s_remquo.c (__remquo): Ensure sign of zero result does not depend on the sign resulting from subtraction. * sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/wordsize-64/s_remquo.c (__remquo): Likewise. * sysdeps/ieee754/flt-32/s_remquof.c (__remquof): Likewise. * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/s_remquol.c (__remquol): Likewise. * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_remquol.c (__remquol): Likewise. * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-96/s_remquol.c (__remquol): Likewise. * math/libm-test.inc (remquo_test_data): Add more tests.
2015-02-16Fix remquo spurious overflows (bug 17978).Joseph Myers
Various remquo implementations, when computing the last three bits of the quotient, have spurious overflows when 4 times the second argument to remquo overflows. These overflows can in turn cause bad results in rounding modes where that overflow results in a finite value. This patch adds tests to avoid the problem multiplications in cases where they would overflow, similar to those that control an earlier multiplication by 8. Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 and powerpc. [BZ #17978] * sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/s_remquo.c (__remquo): Do not form products 4 * y and 2 * y where those would overflow. * sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/wordsize-64/s_remquo.c (__remquo): Likewise. * sysdeps/ieee754/flt-32/s_remquof.c (__remquof): Likewise. * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128/s_remquol.c (__remquol): Likewise. * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_remquol.c (__remquol): Likewise. * sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-96/s_remquol.c (__remquol): Likewise. * math/libm-test.inc (remquo_test_data): Add more tests.
2015-02-15ia64: remove fixed page size macros and others [BZ #17792]Matthew Fortune
Remove IA64 PAGE_SIZE related macros as PAGE_SIZE is not defined. Also remove macros that are only used for BFD's trad-core support which is not relavant for IA64 according to the thread starting here: https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-ports/2013-11/msg00028.html This patch is neither built nor tested but is equivalent to a MIPS patch for the same fix.
2015-02-13Fix dbl-64/wordsize-64 remquo (bug 17569).Joseph Myers
The dbl-64/wordsize-64 remquo implementation follows similar logic to various other implementations, but where that logic computes some absolute values, it wrongly uses a previously computed bit-pattern for the absolute value of the first argument, where actually it needs the absolute value of the first argument mod 8 times the second. This patch fixes it to compute the correct absolute value. The integer quotient result of remquo is only specified mod 8 (including its sign); architecture-specific versions may well vary in what results they give for higher bits of that result (and indeed bug 17569 gives an example correct result from __builtin_remquo giving 9 for that result, where the particular glibc implementation used in that bug report would give 1 after this fix). Thus, this patch adapts the tests of remquo to test that result only mod 8, to allow for such variation when tests with higher quotient are included. Tested for x86_64 and x86. [BZ #17569] * sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/wordsize-64/s_remquo.c (__remquo): Compute absolute value of x as modified by fmod, not original value of x. * math/libm-test.inc (RUN_TEST_ffI_f1): Rename to RUN_TEST_ffI_f1_mod8.

2015-02-13Fix powerpc software sqrtf (bug 17967).Joseph Myers
Similarly to sqrt in <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-02/msg00353.html>, the powerpc sqrtf implementation for when _ARCH_PPCSQ is not defined also relies on a * b + c being contracted into a fused multiply-add. Although this contraction is not explicitly disabled for e_sqrtf.c, it still seems appropriate to make the file explicit about its requirements by using __builtin_fmaf; this patch does so. Furthermore, it turns out that doing so fixes the observed inaccuracy and missing exceptions (that is, that without explicit __builtin_fmaf usage, it was not being compiled as intended). Tested for powerpc32 (hard float). [BZ #17967] * sysdeps/powerpc/fpu/e_sqrtf.c (__slow_ieee754_sqrtf): Use __builtin_fmaf instead of relying on contraction of a * b + c.

2015-02-12Fix powerpc software sqrt (bug 17964).Joseph Myers
As Adhemerval noted in <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-01/msg00451.html>, the powerpc sqrt implementation for when _ARCH_PPCSQ is not defined is inaccurate in some cases. The problem is that this code relies on fused multiply-add, and relies on the compiler contracting a * b + c to get a fused operation. But sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/Makefile disables contraction for e_sqrt.c, because the implementation in that directory relies on *not* having contracted operations. While it would be possible to arrange makefiles so that an earlier sysdeps directory can disable the setting in sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/Makefile, it seems a lot cleaner to make the dependence on fused operations explicit in the .c file. GCC 4.6 introduced support for __builtin_fma on powerpc and other architectures with such instructions, so we can rely on that; this patch duly makes the code use __builtin_fma for all such fused operations. Tested for powerpc32 (hard float). 2015-02-12 Joseph Myers <joseph@codesourcery.com> [BZ #17964] * sysdeps/powerpc/fpu/e_sqrt.c (__slow_ieee754_sqrt): Use __builtin_fma instead of relying on contraction of a * b + c.

2015-02-12Fix exp2 spurious underflows (bug 16560).Joseph Myers
This patch fixes the remaining part of bug 16560, spurious underflows from exp2 of arguments close to 0 (when the result is close to 1, so should not underflow), by just using 1+x instead of a more complicated calculation when the argument is sufficiently small. Tested for x86_64, x86 and mips64. [BZ #16560] * math/e_exp2l.c [LDBL_MANT_DIG == 106] (LDBL_EPSILON): Undefine and redefine.
