The implementation is based on scalar Chacha20 with per-thread cache.
It uses getrandom or /dev/urandom as fallback to get the initial entropy,
and reseeds the internal state on every 16MB of consumed buffer.
To improve performance and lower memory consumption the per-thread cache
is allocated lazily on first arc4random functions call, and if the
memory allocation fails getentropy or /dev/urandom is used as fallback.
The cache is also cleared on thread exit iff it was initialized (so if
arc4random is not called it is not touched).
Although it is lock-free, arc4random is still not async-signal-safe
(the per thread state is not updated atomically).
The ChaCha20 implementation is based on RFC8439 [1], omitting the final
XOR of the keystream with the plaintext because the plaintext is a
stream of zeros. This strategy is similar to what OpenBSD arc4random
does.
The arc4random_uniform is based on previous work by Florian Weimer,
where the algorithm is based on Jérémie Lumbroso paper Optimal Discrete
Uniform Generation from Coin Flips, and Applications (2013) [2], who
credits Donald E. Knuth and Andrew C. Yao, The complexity of nonuniform
random number generation (1976), for solving the general case.
The main advantage of this method is the that the unit of randomness is not
the uniform random variable (uint32_t), but a random bit. It optimizes the
internal buffer sampling by initially consuming a 32-bit random variable
and then sampling byte per byte. Depending of the upper bound requested,
it might lead to better CPU utilization.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, aarch64-linux, and powerpc64le-linux-gnu.

This change provides implementations for the mbrtoc8 and c8rtomb
functions adopted for C++20 via WG21 P0482R6 and for C2X via WG14
N2653. It also provides the char8_t typedef from WG14 N2653.
The mbrtoc8 and c8rtomb functions are declared in uchar.h in C2X
mode or when the _GNU_SOURCE macro or C++20 __cpp_char8_t feature
test macro is defined.
The char8_t typedef is declared in uchar.h in C2X mode or when the
_GNU_SOURCE macro is defined and the C++20 __cpp_char8_t feature
test macro is not defined (if __cpp_char8_t is defined, then char8_t
is a builtin type).

It was added on Linux 5.2 (ecdab150fddb42fe6a739335257949220033b782)
as a way to a configure filesystem creation context and trigger

The fsconfig_command commands are currently only defined as an enum,

This was added on Linux 5.1(3eb39f47934f9d5a3027fe00d906a45fe3a15fad)
as a way to avoid the race condition of using kill (where PID might be
reused by the kernel between between obtaining the pid and sending the
signal).
If the siginfo_t argument is NULL then pidfd_send_signal is equivalent
to kill. If it is not NULL pidfd_send_signal is equivalent to
rt_sigqueueinfo.

posix_spawn_file_actions_addtcsetpgrp_np
The posix_spawnattr_tcsetpgrp_np works on a file descriptor (the
controlling terminal), so it would make more sense to actually fit
it on the file actions API.
Also, POSIX_SPAWN_TCSETPGROUP is not really required since it is
implicit by the presence of tcsetpgrp file action.
The posix/tst-spawn6.c is also fixed when TTY can is not present.

Currently there is no proper way to set the controlling terminal through
posix_spawn in race free manner [1]. This forces shell implementations
to keep using fork+exec when launching background process groups,
even when using posix_spawn yields better performance.
This patch adds a new GNU extension so the creating process can
configure the created process terminal group. This is done with a new
flag, POSIX_SPAWN_TCSETPGROUP, along with two new attribute functions:
posix_spawnattr_tcsetpgrp_np, and posix_spawnattr_tcgetpgrp_np.
The function sets a new attribute, spawn-tcgroupfd, that references to
the controlling terminal.
The controlling terminal is set after the spawn-pgroup attribute, and
uses the spawn-tcgroupfd along with current creating process group
(so it is composable with POSIX_SPAWN_SETPGROUP).
To create a process and set the controlling terminal, one can use the
following sequence:
posix_spawnattr_t attr;
posix_spawnattr_init (&attr);
posix_spawnattr_setflags (&attr, POSIX_SPAWN_TCSETPGROUP);
posix_spawnattr_tcsetpgrp_np (&attr, tcfd);
If the idea is also to create a new process groups:
posix_spawnattr_t attr;
posix_spawnattr_init (&attr);
posix_spawnattr_setflags (&attr, POSIX_SPAWN_TCSETPGROUP
| POSIX_SPAWN_SETPGROUP);
posix_spawnattr_tcsetpgrp_np (&attr, tcfd);
posix_spawnattr_setpgroup (&attr, 0);
The controlling terminal file descriptor is ignored if the new flag is
not set.
This interface is slight different than the one provided by QNX [2],
which only provides the POSIX_SPAWN_TCSETPGROUP flag. The QNX
documentation does not specify how the controlling terminal is obtained
nor how it iteracts with POSIX_SPAWN_SETPGROUP. Since a glibc
implementation is library based, it is more straightforward and avoid
requires additional file descriptor operations to request the caller
to setup the controlling terminal file descriptor (and it also allows
a bit less error handling by posix_spawn).
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.

It is similar to epoll_wait, with the difference the timeout has
nanosecond resoluting by using struct timespec instead of int.
Although Linux interface only provides 64 bit time_t support, old
32 bit interface is also provided (so keep in sync with current
practice and to no force opt-in on 64 bit time_t).

Here we define the minumum linux kernel version at 5.4.0, as that is the
long term support version where 32-bit architectures start to support
64-bit time API's. The OpenRISC kernel had some bugs up until version 5.8
which caused issues with glibc fork/clone, they have been backported to
5.4 but not previous versions.
