| * | support configurable page size on mips, powerpc and microblaze•••PAGE_SIZE was hardcoded to 4096, which is historically what most
systems use, but on several archs it is a kernel config parameter,
user space can only know it at execution time from the aux vector.
PAGE_SIZE and PAGESIZE are not defined on archs where page size is
a runtime parameter, applications should use sysconf(_SC_PAGE_SIZE)
to query it. Internally libc code defines PAGE_SIZE to libc.page_size,
which is set to aux[AT_PAGESZ] in __init_libc and early in __dynlink
as well. (Note that libc.page_size can be accessed without GOT, ie.
before relocations are done)
Some fpathconf settings are hardcoded to 4096, these should be actually
queried from the filesystem using statfs.

| * | fix overflow in sysconf for _SC_MQ_PRIO_MAX•••the value of MQ_PRIO_MAX does not fit, so it needs to use OFLOW.

| * | fix child stack alignment on mips clone•••unlike other archs, the mips version of clone was not doing anything
to align the stack pointer. this seems to have been the cause for some
SIGBUS crashes that were observed in posix_spawn.

| * | fix mips sysv ipc bits headers•••msg.h was wrong for big-endian (wrong endiannness padding).
shm.h was just plain wrong (mips is not supposed to have padding).
both changes were tested using libc-test on qemu-system-mips.

| * | fix x86_64 lrintl asm, again•••the underlying problem was not incorrect sign extension (fixed in the
previous commit to this file by nsz) but that code that treats "long"
as 32-bit was copied blindly from i386 to x86_64.
now lrintl is identical to llrintl on x86_64, as it should be.

| * | do not use default when dynamic linker fails to open existing path file•••if fopen fails for a reason other than ENOENT, we must assume the
intent is that the path file be used. failure may be due to
misconfiguration or intentional resource-exhaustion attack (against
suid programs), in which case falling back to loading libraries from
an unintended path could be dangerous.

| * | math: remove STRICT_ASSIGN from exp2f (see previous commit) | Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-06 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| * | math: remove STRICT_ASSIGN macro•••gcc did not always drop excess precision according to c99 at assignments
before version 4.5 even if -std=c99 was requested which caused badly
broken mathematical functions on i386 when FLT_EVAL_METHOD!=0
but STRICT_ASSIGN was not used consistently and it is worked around for
old compilers with -ffloat-store so it is no longer needed
the new convention is to get the compiler respect c99 semantics and when
excess precision is not harmful use float_t or double_t or to specialize
code using FLT_EVAL_METHOD

| * | math: support invalid ld80 representations in fpclassify•••apparently gnulib requires invalid long double representations
to be handled correctly in printf so we classify them according
to how the fpu treats them: bad inf is nan, bad nan is nan,
bad normal is nan and bad subnormal/zero is minimal normal
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 1 | -2/+4 |
| * | math: fix atanh (overflow and underflow issues)•••in atanh exception handling was left to the called log functions,
but the argument to those functions could underflow or overflow.
use double_t and float_t to avoid some useless stores on x86
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 3 | -14/+37 |
| * | math: remove libc.h include from libm.h•••libc.h is only for weak_alias so include it directly where it is used
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 5 | -3/+5 |
| * | math: fix acoshf on negative values•••acosh(x) is invalid for x<1, acoshf tried to be clever using
signed comparisions to handle all x<2 the same way, but the
formula was wrong on large negative values.
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 2 | -7/+8 |
| * | math: fix expm1l on x86_64 (avoid underflow for large negative x)•••copy the fix from i386: return -1 instead of exp2l(x)-1 when x <= -65
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 3 | -3/+13 |
| * | math: fix lrintl.s on x86_64 (use movslq to signextend the result) | Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| * | math: fix exp2l asm on x86 (raise underflow correctly)•••there were two problems:
* omitted underflow on subnormal results: exp2l(-16383.5) was calculated
as sqrt(2)*2^-16384, the last bits of sqrt(2) are zero so the down scaling
does not underflow eventhough the result is in subnormal range
* spurious underflow for subnormal inputs: exp2l(0x1p-16400) was evaluated
as f2xm1(x)+1 and f2xm1 raised underflow (because inexact subnormal result)
the first issue is fixed by raising underflow manually if x is in
(-32768,-16382] and not integer (x-0x1p63+0x1p63 != x)
the second issue is fixed by treating x in (-0x1p64,0x1p64) specially
for these fixes the special case handling was completely rewritten
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 2 | -67/+78 |
| * | math: cosmetic cleanup (use explicit union instead of fshape and dshape) | Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 11 | -166/+140 |
| * | math: remove *_WORD64 macros from libm.h•••only fma used these macros and the explicit union is clearer
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 2 | -29/+13 |
| * | math: remove old longdbl.h | Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 2 | -113/+0 |
| * | math: long double fix (use ldshape union)•••* use new ldshape union consistently
* add ld128 support to frexpl
* simplify sqrtl comment (ld64 is not just arm)
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 8 | -51/+24 |
| * | math: use float_t and double_t in scalbnf and scalbn•••remove STRICT_ASSIGN (c99 semantics is assumed) and use the conventional
union to prepare the scaling factor (so libm.h is no longer needed)
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 2 | -16/+20 |
| * | math: fix remaining old long double code (erfl, fmal, lgammal, scalbnl)•••in lgammal don't handle 1 and 2 specially, in fma use the new ldshape
union instead of ld80 one.
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 5 | -93/+65 |
| * | math: cbrt cleanup and long double fix•••* use float_t and double_t
* cleanup subnormal handling
* bithacks according to the new convention (ldshape for long double
and explicit unions for float and double)
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 3 | -72/+59 |
| * | math: fix underflow in exp*.c and long double handling in exp2l•••* don't care about inexact flag
* use double_t and float_t (faster, smaller, more precise on x86)
* exp: underflow when result is zero or subnormal and not -inf
* exp2: underflow when result is zero or subnormal and not exact
* expm1: underflow when result is zero or subnormal
* expl: don't underflow on -inf
* exp2: fix incorrect comment
* expm1: simplify special case handling and overflow properly
* expm1: cleanup final scaling and fix negative left shift ub (twopk)
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 8 | -182/+139 |
| * | math: long double trigonometric cleanup (cosl, sinl, sincosl, tanl)•••ld128 support was added to internal kernel functions (__cosl, __sinl,
__tanl, __rem_pio2l) from freebsd (not tested, but should be a good
start for when ld128 arch arrives)
__rem_pio2l had some code cleanup, the freebsd ld128 code seems to
gather the results of a large reduction with precision loss (fixed
the bug but a todo comment was added for later investigation)
the old copyright was removed from the non-kernel wrapper functions
(cosl, sinl, sincosl, tanl) since these are trivial and the interesting
parts and comments had been already rewritten.
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 8 | -236/+228 |
| * | math: long double inverse trigonometric cleanup (acosl, asinl, atanl, atan2l)•••* added ld128 support from freebsd fdlibm (untested)
* using new ldshape union instead of IEEEl2bits
* inexact status flag is not supported
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 6 | -103/+180 |
| * | math: rewrite hypot•••method: if there is a large difference between the scale of x and y
then the larger magnitude dominates, otherwise reduce x,y so the
argument of sqrt (x*x+y*y) does not overflow or underflow and calculate
the argument precisely using exact multiplication. If the argument
has less error than 1/sqrt(2) ~ 0.7 ulp, then the result has less error
than 1 ulp in nearest rounding mode.
the original fdlibm method was the same, except it used bit hacks
instead of dekker-veltkamp algorithm, which is problematic for long
double where different representations are supported. (the new hypot
and hypotl code should be smaller and faster on 32bit cpu archs with
fast fpu), the new code behaves differently in non-nearest rounding,
but the error should be still less than 2ulps.
ld80 and ld128 are supported
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 3 | -324/+135 |
| * | math: rewrite remainder functions (remainder, remquo, fmod, modf)•••* results are exact
* modfl follows truncl (raises inexact flag spuriously now)
* modf and modff only had cosmetic cleanup
* remainder is just a wrapper around remquo now
* using iterative shift+subtract for remquo and fmod
* ld80 and ld128 are supported as well
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 11 | -1008/+470 |
| * | math: rewrite rounding functions (ceil, floor, trunc, round, rint)•••* faster, smaller, cleaner implementation than the bit hacks of fdlibm
* use arithmetics like y=(double)(x+0x1p52)-0x1p52, which is an integer
neighbor of x in all rounding modes (0<=x<0x1p52) and only use bithacks
when that's faster and smaller (for float it usually is)
* the code assumes standard excess precision handling for casts
* long double code supports both ld80 and ld128
* nearbyint is not changed (it is a wrapper around rint)
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 15 | -904/+273 |
| * | math: fix logb(-0.0) in downward rounding mode•••use -1/(x*x) instead of -1/(x+0) to return -inf, -0+0 is -0 in
downward rounding mode
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 3 | -6/+6 |
| * | math: ilogb cleanup•••* consistent code style
* explicit union instead of typedef for double and float bit access
* turn FENV_ACCESS ON to make 0/0.0f raise invalid flag
* (untested) ld128 version of ilogbl (used by logbl which has ld128 support)
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 3 | -16/+43 |
| * | long double cleanup, initial commit•••new ldshape union, ld128 support is kept, code that used the old
ldshape union was rewritten (IEEEl2bits union of freebsd libm is
not touched yet)
ld80 __fpclassifyl no longer tries to handle invalid representation
| Szabolcs Nagy | 2013-09-05 | 8 | -96/+89 |
| * | fix typo in comment in __randname | Rich Felker | 2013-09-04 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| * | fix mips-specific bug in synccall (too little space for signal mask)•••switch to the new __block_all_sigs/__restore_sigs internal API to
clean up the code too.
| Rich Felker | 2013-09-02 | 1 | -5/+3 |
| * | in synccall, ignore the signal before any threads' signal handlers return•••this protects against deadlock from spurious signals (e.g. sent by
another process) arriving after the controlling thread releases the
other threads from the sync operation.
| Rich Felker | 2013-09-02 | 1 | -4/+4 |
| * | fix invalid pointer in synccall (multithread setuid, etc.)•••the head pointer was not being reset between calls to synccall, so any
use of this interface more than once would build the linked list
incorrectly, keeping the (now invalid) list nodes from the previous
call.
| Rich Felker | 2013-09-02 | 1 | -0/+1 |
| * | fix special-case breakage in popen due to reversed argument order | Rich Felker | 2013-09-01 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| * | add workaround header for wait.h remapping to sys/wait.h | Rich Felker | 2013-09-01 | 1 | -0/+2 |
| * | fix missing return value warning in faccessat, minor cleanup•••clone will pass the return value of the start function to SYS_exit
anyway; there's no need to call the syscall directly.
| Rich Felker | 2013-08-31 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| * | fix invalid %m format crash in wide scanf variants•••the wide variant was missed in the previous commit.
| Rich Felker | 2013-08-31 | 1 | -0/+2 |
| * | avoid crash in scanf when invalid %m format is encountered•••invalid format strings invoke undefined behavior, so this is not a
conformance issue, but it's nicer for scanf to report the error safely
instead of calling free on a potentially-uninitialized pointer or a
pointer to memory belonging to the caller.
| Rich Felker | 2013-08-31 | 1 | -0/+2 |
| * | remove incorrect cancellation points from realpath | Rich Felker | 2013-08-31 | 1 | -4/+4 |
| * | debloat realpath's allocation strategy•••rather than allocating a PATH_MAX-sized buffer when the caller does
not provide an output buffer, work first with a PATH_MAX-sized temp
buffer with automatic storage, and either copy it to the caller's
buffer or strdup it on success. this not only avoids massive memory
waste, but also avoids pulling in free (and thus the full malloc
implementation) unnecessarily in static programs.
| Rich Felker | 2013-08-31 | 1 | -12/+6 |
| * | make realpath use O_PATH when opening the file•••this avoids failure if the file is not readable and avoids odd
behavior for device nodes, etc. on old kernels that lack O_PATH, the
old behavior (O_RDONLY) will naturally happen as the fallback.
| Rich Felker | 2013-08-31 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| * | fix regression in creation of ldso symlink•••DESTDIR was wrongly included in the symlink contents.
| Rich Felker | 2013-08-31 | 1 | -1/+1 |
| * | fix breakage in synccall due to incorrect signal restoration in sigqueue•••commit 07827d1a82fb33262f686eda959857f0d28cd8fa seems to have
introduced this issue. sigqueue is called from the synccall core, at
which time, even implementation-internal signals are blocked. however,
pthread_sigmask removes the implementation-internal signals from the
old mask before returning, so that a process which began life with
them blocked will not be able to save a signal mask that has them
blocked, possibly causing them to become re-blocked later. however,
this was causing sigqueue to unblock the implementation-internal
signals during synccall, leading to deadlock.

| * | release notes for 0.9.13 | Rich Felker | 2013-08-30 | 1 | -0/+55 |
| * | only expose struct tcphdr under _GNU_SOURCE•••the BSD and GNU versions of this structure differ, so exposing it in
the default _BSD_SOURCE profile is possibly problematic. both versions
could be simultaneously supported with anonymous unions if needed in
the future, but for now, just omitting it except under _GNU_SOURCE
should be safe.
| Rich Felker | 2013-08-30 | 1 | -1/+3 |
| * | add struct tcphdr in netinet/tcp.h | Rich Felker | 2013-08-30 | 1 | -0/+33 |
| * | remove -Wcast-align from --enable-warnings•••I originally added this warning option based on a misunderstanding of
how it works. it does not warn whenever the destination of the cast
has stricter alignment; it only warns in cases where misaligned
dereference could lead to a fault. thus, it's essentially a no-op for
i386, which had me wrongly believing the code was clean for this
warning level. on other archs, numerous diagnostic messages are
produced, and all of them are false-positives, so it's better just not
to use it.
