2018-10-29Patch to require Python 3.4 or later to build glibc.Joseph Myers
This patch makes Python 3.4 or later a required tool for building glibc, so allowing changes of awk, perl etc. code used in the build and test to Python code without any such changes needing makefile conditionals or to handle older Python versions. This patch makes the configure test for Python check the version and give an error if Python is missing or too old, and removes makefile conditionals that are no longer needed. It does not itself convert any code from another language to Python, and does not remove any compatibility with older Python versions from existing scripts. Tested for x86_64. * configure.ac (PYTHON_PROG): Use AC_CHECK_PROG_VER. Set critic_missing for versions before 3.4. * configure: Regenerated. * manual/install.texi (Tools for Compilation): Document requirement for Python to build glibc. * INSTALL: Regenerated. * Rules [PYTHON]: Make code unconditional. * benchtests/Makefile [PYTHON]: Likewise. * conform/Makefile [PYTHON]: Likewise. * manual/Makefile [PYTHON]: Likewise. * math/Makefile [PYTHON]: Likewise.
2018-10-24Use gen-libm-test.py to generate ulps table for manual.Joseph Myers
This patch extends gen-libm-test.py to generate the ulps table for the manual, so meaning there is only a single ulps file parser needed and another Perl script is eliminated. As with the introduction of gen-libm-test.py, this is designed to generate exactly the same libm-err.texi as libm-err-tab.pl did. (gen-libm-test.py is still shorter in lines than the old gen-libm-test.pl even after this patch.) Note that this introduces a Python dependency for building the manual, which is thus noted in install.texi and NEWS. Tested building html / info / pdf versions of the manual. * math/gen-libm-test.py: Import os. (ALL_FLOATS_MANUAL): New constant. (ALL_FLOATS_SUFFIX): Likewise. (Ulps.all_functions): New function.

2018-09-21powerpc: Only enable TLE with PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_NOSCAdhemerval Zanella
Linux from 3.9 through 4.2 does not abort HTM transaction on syscalls, instead it suspend and resume it when leaving the kernel. The side-effects of the syscall will always remain visible, even if the transaction is aborted. This is an issue when transaction is used along with futex syscall, on pthread_cond_wait for instance, where the futex call might succeed but the transaction is rolled back leading the pthread_cond object in an inconsistent state. Glibc used to prevent it by always aborting a transaction before issuing a syscall. Linux 4.2 also decided to abort active transaction in syscalls which makes the glibc workaround superfluous. Worse, glibc transaction abortion leads to a performance issue on recent kernels where the HTM state is saved/restore lazily (v4.9). By aborting a transaction on every syscalls, regardless whether a transaction has being initiated before, GLIBS makes the kernel always save/restore HTM state (it can not even lazily disable it after a certain number of syscall iterations). Because of this shortcoming, Transactional Lock Elision is just enabled when it has been explicitly set (either by tunables of by a configure switch) and if kernel aborts HTM transactions on syscalls (PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_NOSC). It is reported that using simple benchmark [1], the context-switch is about 5% faster by not issuing a tabort in every syscall in newer kernels. Checked on powerpc64le-linux-gnu with 4.4.0 kernel (Ubuntu 16.04). * NEWS: Add note about new TLE support on powerpc64le. * sysdeps/powerpc/nptl/tcb-offsets.sym (TM_CAPABLE): Remove. * sysdeps/powerpc/nptl/tls.h (tcbhead_t): Rename tm_capable to __ununsed1.

2018-09-19Add new pow implementationSzabolcs Nagy
The algorithm is exp(y * log(x)), where log(x) is computed with about 1.3*2^-68 relative error (1.5*2^-68 without fma), returning the result in two doubles, and the exp part uses the same algorithm (and lookup tables) as exp, but takes the input as two doubles and a sign (to handle negative bases with odd integer exponent). The __exp1 internal symbol is no longer necessary. There is separate code path when fma is not available but the worst case error is about 0.54 ULP in both cases. The lookup table and consts for log are 4168 bytes. The .rodata+.text is decreased by 37908 bytes on aarch64. The non-nearest rounding error is less than 1 ULP.

2018-09-14Fix MIPS n32 pr_sigpend, pr_sighold, pr_flag type (bug 23656).Joseph Myers
As discussed at <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2018-09/msg00191.html> and followup discussions, the MIPS n32 definitions of pr_sigpend and pr_sighold in struct elf_prstatus, and pr_flag in struct elf_prpsinfo, are wrong to use unsigned long long int; actual n32 core dumps use a 32-bit type there, so userspace unsigned long int is correct for all MIPS ABIs. This patch removes the conditionals (also thereby aligning the structures with other architectures and so facilitating future unification of different versions of this header). Tested with build-many-glibcs.py for its MIPS configurations. [BZ #23656] * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/sys/procfs.h (struct elf_prstatus): Remove [_MIPS_SIM = _ABIN32] conditional case. (struct elf_prpsinfo): Likewise.
2018-09-14Fix sys/procfs.h pr_uid, pr_gid type (bug 23649).Joseph Myers
As noted in <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2018-09/msg00178.html>, glibc's sys/procfs.h headers for microblaze, mips (n64), nios2 and riscv have incorrect types for the pr_uid and pr_gid members of struct elf_prpsinfo (as does the generic Linux version, but nothing uses that). This patch fixes those headers to use unsigned int. The generic Linux version is also fixed, but I do *not* recommend making new architectures use it yet. Rather, I think it should be reworked to look more like a copy of the AArch64 version, but with a new <bits/procfs.h> header included to provide register set definitions; <bits/procfs.h> would then be architecture-specific while many architectures could use the generic <sys/procfs.h>. This fix is deliberately separate from any reworking to use a generic header more, since it's possible there could be uses for backporting this fix but not for backporting a subsequent cleanup. Tested with build-many-glibcs.py. This of course doesn't provide much validation of the structure layout; if the Linux kernel is fixed so that "#include <linux/elfcore.h>" actually compiles with the headers from "make headers_install" (and if the layout in both headers is meant to be the same, whatever ABI we are building for), I have a test that can be added to glibc to check the layout against that from the Linux kernel.

2018-09-12Add new log2 implementationSzabolcs Nagy
Similar algorithm is used as in log: log2(2^k x) = k + log2(c) + log2(x/c) where the last term is approximated by a polynomial of x/c - 1, the first order coefficient is about 1/ln2 in this case. There is separate code path when fma instruction is not available for computing x/c - 1 precisely, for which the table size is doubled. The worst case error is 0.547 ULP (0.55 without fma), the read only global data size is 1168 bytes (2192 without fma) on aarch64. The non-nearest rounding error is less than 1 ULP.

2018-09-12Add new log implementationSzabolcs Nagy
Optimized log using carefully generated lookup table with 1/c and log(c) values for small intervalls around 1. The log(c) is very near a double precision value, it has about 62 bits precision. The algorithm is log(2^k x) = k log(2) + log(c) + log(x/c), where the last term is approximated by a polynomial of x/c - 1. Near 1 a single polynomial of x - 1 is used. There is separate code path when fma instruction is not available for computing x/c - 1 precisely, in which case the table size is doubled. The code uses __builtin_fma under __FP_FAST_FMA to ensure it is inlined as an instruction. With the default configuration settings the worst case error is 0.519 ULP (and 0.520 without fma), the rodata size is 2192 bytes (4240 without fma). The non-nearest rounding error is less than 1 ULP.

2018-09-05Add new exp and exp2 implementationsSzabolcs Nagy
Optimized exp and exp2 implementations using a lookup table for fractional powers of 2. There are several variants, see e_exp_data.c, they can be selected by modifying math_config.h allowing different tradeoffs. The default selection should be acceptable as generic libm code. Worst case error is 0.509 ULP for exp and 0.507 ULP for exp2, on aarch64 the rodata size is 2160 bytes, shared between exp and exp2. On aarch64 .text + .rodata size decreased by 24912 bytes. The non-nearest rounding error is less than 1 ULP even on targets without efficient round implementation (although the error rate is higher in that case). Targets with single instruction, rounding mode independent, to nearest integer rounding and conversion can use them by setting TOINT_INTRINSICS and adding the necessary code to their math_private.h. The __exp1 code uses the same algorithm, so the error bound of pow increased a bit. New double precision error handling code was added following the style of the single precision error handling code. Improvements on Cortex-A72 compared to current glibc master: exp thruput: 1.61x in [-9.9 9.9] exp latency: 1.53x in [-9.9 9.9] exp thruput: 1.13x in [0.5 1] exp latency: 1.30x in [0.5 1] exp2 thruput: 2.03x in [-9.9 9.9] exp2 latency: 1.64x in [-9.9 9.9] For small (< 1) inputs the current exp code uses a separate algorithm so the speed up there is less. Was tested on aarch64-linux-gnu (TOINT_INTRINSICS, fma contraction) and arm-linux-gnueabihf (!TOINT_INTRINSICS, no fma contraction) and x86_64-linux-gnu (!TOINT_INTRINSICS, no fma contraction) and powerpc64le-linux-gnu (!TOINT_INTRINSICS, fma contraction) targets, only non-nearest rounding ulp errors increase and they are within acceptable bounds (ulp updates are in separate patches). * NEWS: Mention exp and exp2 improvements. * math/Makefile (libm-support): Remove t_exp.

2018-06-29New configure option --disable-crypt.Zack Weinberg
Some Linux distributions are experimenting with a new, separately maintained and hopefully more agile implementation of the crypt API. To facilitate this, add a configure option which disables glibc's embedded libcrypt. When this option is given, libcrypt.* and crypt.h will not be built nor installed.
2018-06-29Disallow use of DES encryption functions in new programs.Zack Weinberg
The functions encrypt, setkey, encrypt_r, setkey_r, cbc_crypt, ecb_crypt, and des_setparity should not be used in new programs, because they use the DES block cipher, which is unacceptably weak by modern standards. Demote all of them to compatibility symbols, and remove their prototypes from installed headers. cbc_crypt, ecb_crypt, and des_setparity were already compat symbols when glibc was configured with --disable-obsolete-rpc. POSIX requires encrypt and setkey to be available when _XOPEN_CRYPT is defined, so this change also removes the definition of X_OPEN_CRYPT from <unistd.h>. The entire "DES Encryption" section is dropped from the manual, as is the mention of AUTH_DES and FIPS 140-2 in the introduction to crypt.texi. The documentation of 'memfrob' cross-referenced the DES Encryption section, which is replaced by a hyperlink to libgcrypt, and while I was in there I spruced up the actual documentation of 'memfrob' and 'strfry' a little. It's still fairly jokey, because those functions _are_ jokes, but they do also have real use cases, so people trying to use them for real should have all the information they need. DES-based authentication for Sun RPC is also insecure and should be deprecated or even removed, but maybe that can be left as TI-RPC's problem.

2018-06-26Fix Linux fcntl OFD locks for non-LFS architectures (BZ#20251)Adhemerval Zanella
This patch fixes the OFD ("file private") locks for architectures that support non-LFS flock definition (__USE_FILE_OFFSET64 not defined). The issue in this case is both F_OFD_{GETLK,SETLK,SETLKW} and F_{SET,GET}L{W}K64 expects a flock64 argument and when using old F_OFD_* flags with a non LFS flock argument the kernel might interpret the underlying data wrongly. Kernel idea originally was to avoid using such flags in non-LFS syscall, but since GLIBC uses fcntl with LFS semantic as default it is possible to provide the functionality and avoid the bogus struct kernel passing by adjusting the struct manually for the required flags. The idea follows other LFS interfaces that provide two symbols: 1. A new LFS fcntl64 is added on default ABI with the usual macros to select it for FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64. 2. The Linux non-LFS fcntl use a stack allocated struct flock64 for F_OFD_{GETLK,SETLK,SETLKW} copy the results on the user provided struct. 3. Keep a compat symbol with old broken semantic for architectures that do not define __OFF_T_MATCHES_OFF64_T. So for architectures which defines __USE_FILE_OFFSET64, fcntl64 will aliased to fcntl and no adjustment would be required. So to actually use F_OFD_* with LFS support the source must be built with LFS support (_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64). Also F_OFD_SETLKW command is handled a cancellation point, as for F_SETLKW{64}. Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.

2018-06-12Improve DST handling (Bug 23102, Bug 21942, Bug 18018, Bug 23259).Carlos O'Donell
This commit improves DST handling significantly in the following ways: firstly is_dst () is overhauled to correctly process DST sequences that would be accepted given the ELF gABI. This means that we actually now accept slightly more sequences than before. Now we accept $ORIGIN$ORIGIN, but in the past we accepted only $ORIGIN\0 or $ORIGIN/..., but this kind of behaviour results in unexpected and uninterpreted DST sequences being used as literal search paths leading to security defects. Therefore the first step in correcting this defect is making is_dst () properly account for all DSTs and making the function context free in the sense that it counts DSTs without knowledge of path, or AT_SECURE. Next, _dl_dst_count () is also simplified to count all DSTs regardless of context. Then in _dl_dst_substitute () we reintroduce context-dependent processing for such things as AT_SECURE handling. At the level of _dl_dst_substitute we can have access to things like the true start of the string sequence to validate $ORIGIN-based paths rooted in trusted directories. Lastly, we tighten up the accepted sequences in AT_SECURE, and avoid leaving known unexpanded DSTs, this is noted in the NEWS entry. Verified with a sequence of 68 tests on x86_64 that cover non-AT_SECURE and AT_SECURE testing using a sysroot (requires root to run). The tests cover cases for bug 23102, bug 21942, bug 18018, and bug 23259. These tests are not yet appropriate for the glibc regression testsuite, but with the upcoming test-in-container testing framework it should be possible to include these tests upstream soon. See the mailing list for the tests: https://www.sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2018-06/msg00251.html

2018-05-22Make llseek a compat symbol (bug 18471).Joseph Myers
The llseek function name is an obsolete, Linux-specific, unprototyped name for lseek64 with a link-time warning. This patch completes the obsoletion of this function name by making it into a compat symbol, not available for newly linked programs and not included in the ABI for new ports. When a compat symbol is defined in syscalls.list, the code for that function is not built at all for static linking unless some non-compat symbol for that function is also defined with an explicit symbol version, so an explicit symbol version for lseek64 is added to the MIPS n32 syscalls.list. The case in make-syscalls.sh that handles such explicit non-compat symbol versions then needs to be changed to use weak_alias instead of strong_alias when the syscall is built outside of libc, to avoid linknamespace failures from a strong lseek64 symbol in static libpthread. The x32 llseek.S was as far as I could tell already unused (nothing builds an llseek.* source file, at least since the lseek / lseek64 / llseek consolidation), so is removed in this patch as well. Tested for x86_64 and x86, and with build-many-glibcs.py. [BZ #18471] * sysdeps/unix/make-syscalls.sh (emit_weak_aliases): Use weak aliases for non-libc case of versioned symbols. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/lseek64.c: Include <shlib-compat.h>. (llseek): Define as compat symbol if [SHLIB_COMPAT (libc, GLIBC_2_0, GLIBC_2_28)], not as weak alias with link warning. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips64/n32/syscalls.list (llseek): Make into a compat symbol, disabled for minimum symbol version GLIBC_2.28 and later. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/x32/llseek.S: Remove file.
2018-05-18Obsolete nfsservctl.Joseph Myers
The Linux nfsservctl syscall was removed in Linux 3.1. Since the minimum kernel version for use with glibc is 3.2, the glibc wrapper for this syscall can no longer usefully be called. This patch makes it into a compat symbol, not provided at all for static linking or new ports. (It was already the case that there was no header declaration of this function.) Tested for x86_64. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/syscalls.list (nfsservctl): Make into a compat symbol, disabled for minimum symbol version GLIBC_2.28 and later.
2018-05-17Add narrowing divide functions.Joseph Myers
This patch adds the narrowing divide functions from TS 18661-1 to glibc's libm: fdiv, fdivl, ddivl, f32divf64, f32divf32x, f32xdivf64 for all configurations; f32divf64x, f32divf128, f64divf64x, f64divf128, f32xdivf64x, f32xdivf128, f64xdivf128 for configurations with _Float64x and _Float128; __nldbl_ddivl for ldbl-opt. The changes are mostly essentially the same as for the other narrowing functions, so the description of those generally applies to this patch as well. Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 (all three ABIs, both hard and soft float) and powerpc, and with build-many-glibcs.py. * math/Makefile (libm-narrow-fns): Add div.

2018-05-16Add narrowing multiply functions.Joseph Myers
This patch adds the narrowing multiply functions from TS 18661-1 to glibc's libm: fmul, fmull, dmull, f32mulf64, f32mulf32x, f32xmulf64 for all configurations; f32mulf64x, f32mulf128, f64mulf64x, f64mulf128, f32xmulf64x, f32xmulf128, f64xmulf128 for configurations with _Float64x and _Float128; __nldbl_dmull for ldbl-opt. The changes are mostly essentially the same as for the narrowing add functions, so the description of those generally applies to this patch as well. f32xmulf64 for i386 cannot use precision control as used for add and subtract, because that would result in double rounding for subnormal results, so that uses round-to-odd with long double intermediate result instead. The soft-fp support involves adding a new FP_TRUNC_COOKED since soft-fp multiplication uses cooked inputs and outputs. Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 (all three ABIs, both hard and soft float) and powerpc, and with build-many-glibcs.py. * math/Makefile (libm-narrow-fns): Add mul.

2018-05-02Deprecate ustat syscall interfaceAdhemerval Zanella
As for sysctl, ustat has been deprecated in favor of {f}statfs. Also some newer ports which uses generic interface builds a stub version that returns ENOSYS. This patch deprecates ustat interface by removing ustat.h related headers, adding a compatibility symbol, and avoiding new ports to build and provide the symbol. Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu. Also checked with a check-abi on all affected ABIs. * NEWS: Add ustat.h deprecation entry. * bits/ustat.h: Remove file. * misc/sys/ustat.h: Likewise. * misc/ustat.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/generic/ustat.c: Likewise. * misc/Makefile (headers): Remove ustat.h and sys/ustat.h. * misc/ustat.c (__ustat): Rename to __old_ustat and export only in compatibility mode. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ustat.c (__ustat): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/ustat.c: Define DEV_TO_KDEV and use generic Linux implementation.
2018-04-27Remove tilegx port.Joseph Myers
Since tile support has been removed from the Linux kernel for 4.17, this patch removes the (unmaintained) port to tilegx from glibc (the tilepro support having been previously removed). This reflects the general principle that a glibc port needs upstream support for the architecture in all the components it build-depends on (so binutils, GCC and the Linux kernel, for the normal case of a port supporting the Linux kernel but no other OS), in order to be maintainable. Apart from removal of sysdeps/tile and sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tile, there are updates to various comments referencing tile for which removal of those references seemed appropriate. The configuration is removed from README and from build-many-glibcs.py. contrib.texi keeps mention of removed contributions, but I updated Chris Metcalf's entry to reflect that he also contributed the non-removed support for the generic Linux kernel syscall interface. __ASSUME_FADVISE64_64_NO_ALIGN support is removed, as it was only used by tile. * sysdeps/tile: Remove. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tile: Likewise. * README (tilegx-*-linux-gnu): Remove from list of supported configurations. * manual/contrib.texi (Contributors): Mention Chris Metcalf's contribution of support for generic Linux kernel syscall interface. * scripts/build-many-glibcs.py (Context.add_all_configs): Remove tilegx configurations.
