This adds complete aarch64 target support including bigendian subarch. Some of the long double math functions are known to be broken otherwise interfaces should be fully functional, but at this point consider this port experimental. Initial work on this port was done by Sireesh Tripurari and Kevin Bortis.

This is in preparation for the aarch64 port only to have the long double math symbols available on ld128 platforms. The implementations should be fixed up later once we have proper tests for these functions. Added bigendian handling for ld128 bit manipulations too.

There are two main abi variants for thread local storage layout: (1) TLS is above the thread pointer at a fixed offset and the pthread struct is below that. So the end of the struct is at known offset. (2) the thread pointer points to the pthread struct and TLS starts below it. So the start of the struct is at known (zero) offset. Assembly code for the dynamic TLSDESC callback needs to access the dynamic thread vector (dtv) pointer which is currently at the front of the pthread struct. So in case of (1) the asm code needs to hard code the offset from the end of the struct which can easily break if the struct changes. This commit adds a copy of the dtv at the end of the struct. New members must not be added after dtv_copy, only before it. The size of the struct is increased a bit, but there is opportunity for size optimizations.

a conservative estimate of 4*sizeof(size_t) was used as the minimum alignment for thread-local storage, despite the only requirements being alignment suitable for struct pthread and void* (which struct pthread already contains). additional alignment required by the application or libraries is encoded in their headers and is already applied. over-alignment prevented the builtin_tls array from ever being used in dynamic-linked programs on 64-bit archs, thereby requiring allocation at startup even in programs with no TLS of their own.

normally time.h would provide a definition for this struct, but depending on the feature test macros in use, it may not be exposed, leading to warnings when it's used in the function prototypes.

the previous definitions were copied from x86_64. not only did they fail to match the ABI sizes; they also wrongly encoded an assumption that long/pointer types are twice as large as int.

this re-check idiom seems to have been copied from the alloc_fwd and alloc_rev functions, which guess a bin based on non-synchronized memory access to adjacent chunk headers then need to confirm, after locking the bin, that the chunk is actually in the bin they locked. the check being removed, however, was being performed on a chunk obtained from the already-locked bin. there is no race to account for here; the check could only fail in the event of corrupt free lists, and even then it would not catch them but simply continue running. since the bin_index function is mildly expensive, it seems preferable to remove the check rather than trying to convert it into a useful consistency check. casual testing shows a 1-5% reduction in run time.

the malloc init code provided its own version of pthread_once type logic, including the exact same bug that was fixed in pthread_once in commit 0d0c2f40. since this code is called adjacent to expand_heap, which takes a lock, there is no reason to have pthread_once-type initialization. simply moving the init code into the interval where expand_heap already holds its lock on the brk achieves the same result with much less synchronization logic, and allows the buggy code to be eliminated rather than just fixed.

the memory model we use internally for atomics permits plain loads of values which may be subject to concurrent modification without requiring that a special load function be used. since a compiler is free to make transformations that alter the number of loads or the way in which loads are performed, the compiler is theoretically free to break this usage. the most obvious concern is with atomic cas constructs: something of the form tmp=*p;a_cas(p,tmp,f(tmp)); could be transformed to a_cas(p,*p,f(*p)); where the latter is intended to show multiple loads of *p whose resulting values might fail to be equal; this would break the atomicity of the whole operation. but even more fundamental breakage is possible. with the changes being made now, objects that may be modified by atomics are modeled as volatile, and the atomic operations performed on them by other threads are modeled as asynchronous stores by hardware which happens to be acting on the request of another thread. such modeling of course does not itself address memory synchronization between cores/cpus, but that aspect was already handled. this all seems less than ideal, but it's the best we can do without mandating a C11 compiler and using the C11 model for atomics. in the case of pthread_once_t, the ABI type of the underlying object is not volatile-qualified. so we are assuming that accessing the object through a volatile-qualified lvalue via casts yields volatile access semantics. the language of the C standard is somewhat unclear on this matter, but this is an assumption the linux kernel also makes, and seems to be the correct interpretation of the standard.

like close, pthread_join is a resource-deallocation function which is also a cancellation point. the intent of masked cancellation mode is to exempt such functions from failure with ECANCELED.

previously, the __timedwait function was optionally a cancellation point depending on whether it was passed a pointer to a cleaup function and context to register. as of now, only one caller actually used such a cleanup function (and it may face removal soon); most callers either passed a null pointer to disable cancellation or a dummy cleanup function. now, __timedwait is never a cancellation point, and __timedwait_cp is the cancellable version. this makes the intent of the calling code more obvious and avoids ugly dummy functions and long argument lists.

as part of abstracting the futex wait, this function suppresses all futex error values which callers should not see using a whitelist approach. when the masked cancellation mode was added, the new ECANCELED error was not whitelisted. this omission caused the new pthread_cond_wait code using masked cancellation to exhibit a spurious wake (rather than acting on cancellation) when the request arrived after blocking on the cond var.

on most cpu models, "rep stosq" has high overhead that makes it undesirable for small memset sizes. the new code extends the minimal-branch fast path for short memsets from size 15 up to size 126, and shrink-wraps this code path. in addition, "rep stosq" is sensitive to misalignment. the cost varies with size and with cpu model, but it has been observed performing 1.5 times slower when the destination address is not aligned mod 16. the new code thus ensures alignment mod 16, but also preserves any existing additional alignment, in case there are cpu models where it is beneficial. this version is based in part on changes proposed by Denys Vlasenko.

the equivalent checks for newly opened stdio output streams, used to determine buffering mode, are also fixed. on most archs, the TCGETS ioctl command shares a value with SNDCTL_TMR_TIMEBASE, part of the OSS sound API which was apparently used with certain MIDI and timer devices. for file descriptors referring to such a device, TCGETS will not fail with ENOTTY as expected; it may produce a different error, or may succeed, and if it succeeds it changes the mode of the device. while it's unlikely that such devices are in use, this is in principle very harmful behavior for an operation which is supposed to do nothing but query whether the fd refers to a tty. TIOCGWINSZ, used to query logical window size for a terminal, was chosen as an alternate ioctl to perform the isatty check. it does not share a value with any other ioctl commands, and it succeeds on any tty device. this change also cleans up strace output to be less ugly and misleading.

due to accidental use of = instead of ==, the error code was always set to zero in the signaled wake case for non-shared cv waits. suppressing ETIMEDOUT (the only possible wait error) is harmless and actually permitted in this case, but suppressing mutex errors could give the caller false information about the state of the mutex. commit 8741ffe6 introduced this regression and commit d9da1fb8 preserved it when reorganizing the code.

when we fail to find the entry in the commonly accepted files, we query a server over a Unix domain socket on /var/run/nscd/socket. the protocol used here is compatible with glibc's nscd protocol on most systems (all that use 32-bit numbers for all the protocol fields, which appears to be everything but Alpha).

errno was treated as the error status when the return value of getline was negative, but this condition can simply indicate EOF and is not necessarily an error. the spurious errors caused by this bug masked the bug which was fixed in commit fc5a96c9.

the wrong condition was used in determining the presence of a result that needs space/copying for the _r functions. a zero return value does not necessarily mean success; it can also be a non-error negative result: no such user/group.

it's possible that signaling a waiter races with cancellation of that same waiter. previously, cancellation was acted upon, causing the signal to be consumed with no waiter returning. by using the new masked cancellation state, it's possible to refuse to act on the cancellation request and instead leave it pending. to ease review and understanding of the changes made, this commit leaves the unwait function, which was previously the cancellation cleanup handler, in place. additional simplifications could be made by removing it.

this is a new extension which is presently intended only for experimental and internal libc use. interface and behavior details may change subject to feedback and experience from using it internally. the basic concept for the new PTHREAD_CANCEL_MASKED state is that the first cancellation point to observe the cancellation request fails with an errno value of ECANCELED rather than acting on cancellation, allowing the caller to process the status and choose whether/how to act upon it.

commit 82dc1e2e addressed the resolution of Austin Group issue 529, which requires close to leave the fd open when failing with EINTR, by returning the newly defined error code EINPROGRESS. this turns out to be a bad idea, though, since legacy applications not aware of the new specification are likely to interpret any error from close except EINTR as a hard failure.

a_store is only valid for int, but ssize_t may be defined as long or another type. since there is no valid way for another thread to acess the return value without first checking the error/completion status of the aiocb anyway, an atomic store is not necessary.

previously, aio operations were not tracked by file descriptor; each operation was completely independent. this resulted in non-conforming behavior for non-seekable/append-mode writes (which are required to be ordered) and made it impossible to implement aio_cancel, which in turn made closing file descriptors with outstanding aio operations unsafe. the new implementation is significantly heavier (roughly twice the size, and seems to be slightly slower) and presently aims mainly at correctness, not performance. most of the public interfaces have been moved into a single file, aio.c, because there is little benefit to be had from splitting them. whenever any aio functions are used, aio_cancel and the internal queue lifetime management and fd-to-queue mapping code must be linked, and these functions make up the bulk of the code size. the close function's interaction with aio is implemented with weak alias magic, to avoid pulling in heavy aio cancellation code in programs that don't use aio, and the expensive cancellation path (which includes signal blocking) is optimized out when there are no active aio queues.
