According to bug 6792, errno is not set to ERANGE/EDOM
by calling log1p/log1pf/log1pl with x = -1 or x < -1.
This patch adds a wrapper which sets errno in those cases
and returns the value of the existing __log1p function.
The log1p is now an alias to the wrapper function
instead of __log1p.
The files in sysdeps are reflecting these changes.
The ia64 implementation sets errno by itself,
thus the wrapper-file is empty.
The libm-test is adjusted for log1p-tests to check errno.

Bug 18247 is an off-by-one error in strtof's determination of a
decimal exponent such that any value with that decimal exponent is at
most half the least subnormal and so the appropriate underflowing
value for the rounding mode can be determined with no
multiple-precision computations. (Whether the value is in fact safe
despite the off-by-one depends on the floating-point format in
question. It's wrong for float and for m68k ldbl-96 but not for other
supported formats.) This patch corrects the computation of the
exponent in question to be safe in general, adding a comment
explaining the new computation.
Tested for x86_64.

The dbl-64 implementation of atan2 does computations that expect to
run in round-to-nearest mode, and in other modes the errors can
accumulate to more than the maximum accepted 9ulp. This patch makes
it use FE_TONEAREST internally, similar to other functions with such
issues. Tests that previously produced large errors are added for
atan2 and the closely related carg, clog and clog10 functions.

Trimming heaps is a balance between saving memory and the system overhead
required to update page tables and discard allocated pages. The malloc
option M_TRIM_THRESHOLD is a tunable that users are meant to use to decide
where this balance point is but it is only applied to the main arena.
For scalability reasons, glibc malloc has per-thread heaps but these are
shrunk with madvise() if there is one page free at the top of the heap.
In some circumstances this can lead to high system overhead if a thread
has a control flow like
while (data_to_process) {
buf = malloc(large_size);
do_stuff();
free(buf);
}
For a large size, the free() will call madvise (pagetable teardown, page
free and TLB flush) every time followed immediately by a malloc (fault,
kernel page alloc, zeroing and charge accounting). The kernel overhead
can dominate such a workload.
This patch allows the user to tune when madvise gets called by applying
the trim threshold to the per-thread heaps and using similar logic to the
main arena when deciding whether to shrink. Alternatively if the dynamic
brk/mmap threshold gets adjusted then the new values will be obeyed by
the per-thread heaps.
Bug 17195 was a test case motivated by a problem encountered in scientific
applications written in python that performance badly due to high page fault
overhead. The basic operation of such a program was posted by Julian Taylor
https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-02/msg00373.html
With this patch applied, the overhead is eliminated. All numbers in this
report are in seconds and were recorded by running Julian's program 30
times.

Note that almost a minutes worth of system time is eliminted and the
program completes 28% faster on average.
To illustrate the problem without python this is a basic test-case for
the worst case scenario where every free is a madvise followed by a an alloc
/* gcc bench-free.c -lpthread -o bench-free */
static int num = 1024;
void __attribute__((noinline,noclone)) dostuff (void *p)
{
}
void *worker (void *data)
{
int i;
for (i = num; i--;)
{
void *m = malloc (48*4096);
dostuff (m);
free (m);
}
return NULL;
}
int main()
{
int i;
pthread_t t;
void *ret;
if (pthread_create (&t, NULL, worker, NULL))
exit (2);
if (pthread_join (t, &ret))
exit (3);
return 0;
}
Before the patch, this resulted in 1024 calls to madvise. With the patch applied,
madvise is called twice because the default trim threshold is high enough to avoid
this.
This a more complex case where there is a mix of frees. It's simply a different worker
function for the test case above
void *worker (void *data)
{
int i;
int j = 0;
void *free_index[num];
for (i = num; i--;)
{
void *m = malloc ((i % 58) *4096);
dostuff (m);
if (i % 2 == 0) {
free (m);
} else {
free_index[j++] = m;
}
}
for (; j >= 0; j--)
{
free(free_index[j]);
}
return NULL;
}
glibc 2.21 calls malloc 90305 times but with the patch applied, it's
called 13438. Increasing the trim threshold will decrease the number of
times it's called with the option of eliminating the overhead.
ebizzy is meant to generate a workload resembling common web application
server workloads. It is threaded with a large working set that at its core
has an allocation, do_stuff, free loop that also hits this case. The primary
metric of the benchmark is records processed per second. This is running on
my desktop which is a single socket machine with an I7-4770 and 8 cores.
Each thread count was run for 30 seconds. It was only run once as the
performance difference is so high that the variation is insignificant.
glibc 2.21 patch

threads 2 19153 84925
threads 4 34295 134569
threads 8 51007 183387
Note that the saving happens to be a concidence as the size allocated
by ebizzy was less than the default threshold. If a different number of
chunks were specified then it may also be necessary to tune the threshold
to compensate
This is roughly quadrupling the performance of this benchmark. The difference in
system CPU usage illustrates why.

running this workload calls madvise approximately 9000 times a second. With
the patch applied madvise was called twice during the workload (or 0.06
times per second).

With copy relocation, address of protected data defined in the shared
library may be external. When there is a relocation against the
protected data symbol within the shared library, we need to check if we
should skip the definition in the executable copied from the protected
data. This patch adds ELF_RTYPE_CLASS_EXTERN_PROTECTED_DATA and defines
it for x86. If ELF_RTYPE_CLASS_EXTERN_PROTECTED_DATA isn't 0, do_lookup_x
will skip the data definition in the executable from copy reloc.

IFUNC is difficult to correctly implement on any target needing a GOT
to support position independent code, due to the dependency on order
of dynamic relocations. ld.so should be changed to apply IFUNC
relocations last, globally, because without that it is actually
impossible to write an IFUNC resolver in C that works in all
situations. Case in point, vfork in libpthread.so is an IFUNC with
the resolver returning &__libc_vfork. (system and fork are similar.)
If another shared library, libA say, uses vfork then it is quite
possible that libpthread.so hasn't been dynamically relocated before
the unfortunate libA is dynamically relocated. In that case the GOT
entry for &__libc_vfork is still zero, so the IFUNC resolver returns
NULL. LD_BIND_NOW=1 results in libA PLT dynamic relocations being
applied using this NULL value and ld.so segfaults.
This patch hardens ld.so to not segfault on a NULL from an IFUNC
resolver. It also fixes a problem with undefined weak. If you leave
the plt entry as-is for undefined weak then if the entry is ever
called it will loop in ld.so rather than segfaulting.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/dl-machine.h (elf_machine_fixup_plt):
Don't segfault if ifunc resolver returns a NULL. Do set plt to
zero for undefined weak.

lowlevellock-futex.h (bug 18138).
This patch follows the approach outlined in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-03/msg00656.html> to
support six-argument syscalls from INTERNAL_SYSCALL for 32-bit x86,
making them call a function __libc_do_syscall that takes the syscall
number and three syscall arguments in the registers in which the
kernel expects them, along with a pointer to a structure containing
the other three arguments.
In turn, this allows the generic lowlevellock-futex.h to be used on
32-bit x86, so supporting lll_futex_timed_wait_bitset (and so allowing
FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME to be used in various cases, so fixing bug 18138
for 32-bit x86 and leaving hppa as the only architecture missing
lll_futex_timed_wait_bitset). The change to lowlevellock.h's
definition of SYS_futex is because the generic lowlevelloc-futex.h
ends up bringing in bits/syscall.h which defines SYS_futex to
__NR_futex, so resulting in redefinition errors. The revised
definition in lowlevellock.h is in line with what the x86_64 version
does.
__libc_do_syscall is only needed in libpthread at present (meaning
nothing special needs to be done to make it shared-only in most
libraries containing it, static in libc only, as on ARM).
Tested for 32-bit x86, with the glibc testsuite and with the test in
bug 18138. The failures seen
FAIL: nptl/tst-cleanupx4
FAIL: rt/tst-cpuclock2
are pre-existing.

This patch is glibc support for a PowerPC TLS optimization, inspired
by Alexandre Oliva's TLS optimization for other processors,
http://www.lsd.ic.unicamp.br/~oliva/writeups/TLS/RFC-TLSDESC-x86.txt
In essence, this optimization uses a zero module id in the tls_index
GOT entry to indicate that a TLS variable is allocated space in the
static TLS area. A special plt call linker stub for __tls_get_addr
checks for such a tls_index and if found, returns the offset
immediately. The linker communicates the fact that the special
__tls_get_addr stub is used by setting a bit in the dynamic tag
DT_PPC64_OPT/DT_PPC_OPT. glibc communicates to the linker that this
optimization is available by the presence of __tls_get_addr_opt.
tst-tlsmod2.so is built with -Wl,--no-tls-get-addr-optimize for
tst-tls-dlinfo, which otherwise would fail since it tests that no
static tls is allocated. The ld option --no-tls-get-addr-optimize has
been available since binutils-2.20 so doesn't need a configure test.

The x86_64 and x86 libm-test-ulps files hadn't been regenerated from
scratch for some time, as evidenced by the presence of entries for
*_tonearest functions (those tests duplicated the
default-rounding-mode tests, and such duplicates are no longer run).
The aarch64, alpha, hppa, ia64, m68k, microblaze, powerpc, s390, sh,
sparc, tile files similarly could do with from-scratch regeneration as
evidenced by the presence of such entries. (Truncate the existing
file then run "make regen-ulps" and move the resulting file into
place.)
This patch regenerates the x86_64 and x86 files from scratch. It's
likely some of the reduced / removed ulps will need restoring because
they appear on processors or compiler versions other than the one I
tested on, but in such cases I'd like to first see if I can generate
new tests that show such ulps on the Intel processor I'm testing on,
to reduce the effects from different people using different processors
and compilers to regenerate the ulps.

In testing for x86_64 on an AMD processor, I observed libm test
failures of the form:
testing long double (without inline functions)
Failure: Test: log2_downward (0x2.b7e151628aed4p+0)
Result:
is: 1.44269504088896356633e+00 0xb.8aa3b295c17f67600000p-3
should be: 1.44269504088896356622e+00 0xb.8aa3b295c17f67500000p-3
difference: 1.08420217248550443400e-19 0x8.00000000000000000000p-66
ulp : 1.0000
max.ulp : 0.0000
Maximal error of `log2_downward'
is : 1 ulp
accepted: 0 ulp
These issues arise because the maximum ulps when regenerating on one
processor are not the same as on another processor, so regeneration on
several processors may be needed when updating libm-test-ulps to avoid
failures for some users testing glibc - but such regeneration on
multiple processors is inconvenient. Causes can be: on x86 and, for
x86_64, for long double, variation in results of x87 instructions for
transcendental operations between processors; on x86, variation in
compiler excess precision between compiler versions and
configurations; on any processor where the compiler may contract
expressions using fused multiply-add, variation in what contraction
occurs.
Although it's hard to be sure libm-test-ulps covers all ulps that may
be seen in any configuration for the given architecture, in practice
it helps simply to add wider test coverage to make it more likely
that, when testing on one processor, the ulps seen are the biggest
that can be seen for that function on that processor, and hopefully
they are also the biggest that can be seen for that function in other
configurations for that architecture. Thus, this patch adds some
tests of log2 that increase the ulps I see on x86_64 on an Intel
processor, so that hopefully future from-scratch regenerations on that
processor will produce ulps big enough not to have errors from testing
on AMD processors. These tests were found by randomly generating
inputs and seeing what produced ulps larger than those currently in
libm-test-ulps. Of course such increases also improve the accuracy of
the empirical table of known ulps generated from libm-test-ulps files
that goes in the manual.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 and ulps updated accordingly.
* math/auto-libm-test-in: Add more tests of log2.
* math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated.
