The meaning of the 25-14 bits in EAX returned from cpuid with EAX = 4
has been changed from "the maximum number of threads sharing the cache"
to "the maximum number of addressable IDs for logical processors sharing
the cache" if cpuid takes EAX = 11. We need to use results from both
EAX = 4 and EAX = 11 to get the number of threads sharing the cache.
The 25-14 bits in EAX on Core i7 is 15 although the number of logical
processors is 8. Here is a white paper on this:
http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-64-architecture-processor-topology-enumeration/
This patch correctly counts number of logical processors on Intel CPUs
with EAX = 11 support on cpuid. Tested on Dinnington, Core i7 and
Nehalem EX/EP.
It also fixed Pentium Ds workaround since EBX may not have the right
value returned from cpuid with EAX = 1.

This patch adds 32bit SSE4.2 string functions. It uses -16L instead of
0xfffffffffffffff0L, which works for both 32bit and 64bit long. Tested
on 32bit Core i7 and Core 2.

After a recent change to fix CFI in ____longjmp_chk the test of the
ss_flags used the wrong memory location.
|
|
This patch adds multiarch support when configured for i686. I modified
some x86-64 functions to support 32bit. I will contribute 32bit SSE string
and memory functions later.
|

|
|
|
All other i386 ports need to provide their own versions.
|
|
We use sigaltstack internally which on some systems is a syscall
and should be used as such. Move the x86-64 version to the Linux
specific directory and create in its place a file which always
causes compile errors.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The simple test previously used might trigger if the longjmp jumps
from the signal stack to the normal stack. We now explicitly test
for this case.
|
|
|
|
Use it to implement fma and fmaf, if possible.
|
|
We use a callback function into libc.so to get access to the data
structure with the information and have special versions of the test
macros which automatically use this function.
|

|
|
tst-audit4 and tst-audit5 fail under AVX emulator due to je instead of
jne. This patch fixes them.
|
|
SSE registers are used for passing parameters and must be preserved
in runtime relocations. This is inside ld.so enforced through the
tests in tst-xmmymm.sh. But the malloc routines used after startup
come from libc.so and can be arbitrarily complex. It's overkill
to save the SSE registers all the time because of that. These calls
are rare. Instead we save them on demand. The new infrastructure
put in place in this patch makes this possible and efficient.
|
|
The test now takes the callgraph into account. Only code called
during runtime relocation is affected by the limitation. We now
determine the affected object files as closely as possible from
the outside. This allowed to remove some the specializations
for some of the string functions as they are only used in other
code paths.

This patch introduces a test to make sure no function modifies the
xmm/ymm registers. With the exception of the auditing functions.
The test is probably too pessimistic. All code linked into ld.so
is checked. Perhaps at some point the callgraph starting from
_dl_fixup and _dl_profile_fixup is checked and we can start using
faster SSE-using functions in parts of ld.so.

getaddrinfo didn't update the status variable in that round of the
loop if no callback was used.
|
|
The file contained some code which was never used. Don't compile it
in.
|
|
Ever since the /usr/include/linux headers got cleaned up this isn't
necessary. Meanwhile everybody should have these cleanups.

When multiarch is enabled we have this information stored. Use it.
|
|
The most recent AP 485 describes a few more cache descriptors for
L3 caches with 24-way associativity.
|
|
There will be more than one function which, in multiarch mode, wants
to use SSSE3. We should not test in each of them for Atoms with
slow SSSE3. Instead, disable the SSSE3 bit in the startup code for
such machines.

This patch implements SSE4.2 strstr/strcasestr, using Knuth-Morris-Pratt
string searching algorithm.
|
|
|
|
The prototype for _dl_higher_prime_number was missing. While at it,
the function is now marked with internal_function.
|
|
The patch mainly reduces the code size but also avoids some jumps.
