2022-10-27cheri: malloc: avoid switch over uintptr_tSzabolcs Nagy
We should use a type that guarantees to represent all address bits. In CHERI C this would be ptraddr_t, but we use unsigned long for now not to cause regressions on other targets where this type is missing.
2022-01-01Update copyright dates with scripts/update-copyrightsPaul Eggert
I used these shell commands: ../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright (cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]") and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning: copyright statement not found" for each of 7061 files FOO. I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h, support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not. remote: *** 912-#endif remote: *** 913: remote: *** 914- remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found ... remote: *** error: sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/statx_cp.c: trailing lines
2021-09-03Remove "Contributed by" linesSiddhesh Poyarekar
We stopped adding "Contributed by" or similar lines in sources in 2012 in favour of git logs and keeping the Contributors section of the glibc manual up to date. Removing these lines makes the license header a bit more consistent across files and also removes the possibility of error in attribution when license blocks or files are copied across since the contributed-by lines don't actually reflect reality in those cases. Move all "Contributed by" and similar lines (Written by, Test by, etc.) into a new file CONTRIBUTED-BY to retain record of these contributions. These contributors are also mentioned in manual/contrib.texi, so we just maintain this additional record as a courtesy to the earlier developers. The following scripts were used to filter a list of files to edit in place and to clean up the CONTRIBUTED-BY file respectively. These were not added to the glibc sources because they're not expected to be of any use in future given that this is a one time task: https://gist.github.com/siddhesh/b5ecac94eabfd72ed2916d6d8157e7dc https://gist.github.com/siddhesh/15ea1f5e435ace9774f485030695ee02 Reviewed-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com>

2021-07-22mcheck: Wean away from malloc hooks [BZ #23489]Siddhesh Poyarekar
Split the mcheck implementation into the debugging hooks and API so that the API can be replicated in libc and libc_malloc_debug.so. The libc APIs always result in failure. The mcheck implementation has also been moved entirely into libc_malloc_debug.so and with it, all of the hook initialization code can now be moved into the debug library. Now the initialization can be done independently of libc internals. With this patch, libc_malloc_debug.so can no longer be used with older libcs, which is not its goal anyway. tst-vfork3 breaks due to this since it spawns shell scripts, which in turn execute using the system glibc. Move the test to tests-container so that only the built glibc is used. This move also fixes bugs in the mcheck version of memalign and realloc, thus allowing removal of the tests from tests-mcheck exclusion list.
