Linux 6.7 removed ia64 from the official tree [1], following the general
principle that a glibc port needs upstream support for the architecture
in all the components it depends on (binutils, GCC, and the Linux
kernel).
Apart from the removal of sysdeps/ia64 and sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ia64,
there are updates to various comments referencing ia64 for which removal
of those references seemed appropriate. The configuration is removed
from README and build-many-glibcs.py.
The CONTRIBUTED-BY, elf/elf.h, manual/contrib.texi (the porting
mention), *.po files, config.guess, and longlong.h are not changed.
For Linux it allows cleanup some clone2 support on multiple files.
The following bug can be closed as WONTFIX: BZ 22634 [2], BZ 14250 [3],
BZ 21634 [4], BZ 10163 [5], BZ 16401 [6], and BZ 11585 [7].

Since tile support has been removed from the Linux kernel for 4.17,
this patch removes the (unmaintained) port to tilegx from glibc (the
tilepro support having been previously removed). This reflects the
general principle that a glibc port needs upstream support for the
architecture in all the components it build-depends on (so binutils,
GCC and the Linux kernel, for the normal case of a port supporting the
Linux kernel but no other OS), in order to be maintainable.
Apart from removal of sysdeps/tile and sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tile,
there are updates to various comments referencing tile for which
removal of those references seemed appropriate. The configuration is
removed from README and from build-many-glibcs.py. contrib.texi keeps
mention of removed contributions, but I updated Chris Metcalf's entry
to reflect that he also contributed the non-removed support for the
generic Linux kernel syscall interface.
__ASSUME_FADVISE64_64_NO_ALIGN support is removed, as it was only used
by tile.

As per the recent discussion, this patch implements a requirement for
Linux 3.2 or later for x86 and x86_64. This is only the initial
change to increase the configured minimum; it's expected that followup
patches would deal with associated removal of conditionals that are no
longer needed. If we remove the start-up test on the kernel version,
of course the NEWS and README text should then be revised (to reflect
that this version is just one such that glibc does not intend to
include compatibility code for any older kernel version, rather than
older kernels necessarily failing to work or glibc necessarily having
compatibility code for newer interfaces).
The followups would be able to assume presence of getcpu (x86_64),
recvmmsg (not always through its own syscall, sometimes only through
socketcall), sendmmsg (likewise), /proc/$pid/task/$tid/comm, f_flags
from statfs, prlimit64.
Tested for x86_64 and x86.

In <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-01/msg00885.html> I
proposed a minimum Linux kernel version of 3.2 for glibc 2.24, since
Linux 2.6.32 has reached EOL.
In the discussion in February, some concerns were expressed about
compatibility with OpenVZ containers. It's not clear that these are
real issues, given OpenVZ backporting kernel features and faking the
kernel version for guest software, as discussed in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-02/msg00278.html>. It's
also not clear that supporting running GNU/Linux distributions from
late 2016 (at the earliest) on a kernel series from 2009 is a sensible
expectation. However, as an interim step, this patch increases the
requirement everywhere except x86 / x86_64 (since the controversy was
only about those architectures); the special caveats and settings can
easily be removed later when we're ready to increase the requirements
on x86 / x86_64 (and if someone would like to raise the issue on LWN
as suggested in the previous discussion, that would be welcome). 3.2
kernel headers are required everywhere by this patch.
(x32 already requires 3.4 or later, so is unaffected by this patch.)
As usual for such a change, this patch only changes the configure
scripts and associated documentation. The intent is to follow up with
removal of dead __LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION conditionals. Each __ASSUME_*
or other macro that becomes dead can then be removed independently.
Tested for x86_64 and x86.

This patch updates README to remove a mention of the ports directory.
It also adds a NEWS item for the merge of ports into the main sysdeps
tree (I think it's NEWS-worthy, although not strictly a user-visible
feature).
Other remaining ports references to resolve: a comment in
manual/signal.texi (not giving a literal path, but maybe should change
anyway); a comment in config.h.in (path should be updated);
scripts/list-sources.sh (appears to date back to ports being a
separate repository).
* README: Do not mention ports directory.

This patch increases the minimum Linux kernel version for glibc to
2.6.32, as discussed in the thread starting at
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-01/msg00511.html>.
This patch just does the minimal change to arch_minimum_kernel
settings (and LIBC_LINUX_VERSION, which determines the minimum kernel
headers version, as it doesn't make sense for that to be older than
the minimum kernel that can be used at runtime). Followups would be
expected to do, roughly and not necessarily precisely in this order:
* Remove __LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION checks in kernel-features.h files
where those checks are always true / always false for kernels 2.6.32
and above.
* Otherwise simplify/improve conditionals in those files (for example,
where defining once in the main file then undefining in
architecture-specific files makes things clearer than having lots of
separate definitions of the same macro), possibly fixing in the
process cases where a macro should optimally have been defined for a
given architecture but wasn't. (In the review in preparation for
this version increase I checked what the right conditions should be
for all macros in the main kernel-features.h whose definitions there
would have been affected by the increase - but I only fixed that
subset of the issues found where --enable-kernel=2.6.32 would have
caused a kernel feature to be wrongly assumed to be present, not any
cases where a feature is not assumed but could be assumed.)
* Remove conditionals on __ASSUME_* where they can now be taken to be
always-true, and the definitions when the macros are only used in
Linux-specific files.
* Split more architectures out of the main kernel-features.h (like
ex-ports architectures), once various of the architecture
conditionals there have been eliminated so the new
architecture-specific files are no larger than actually necessary.
Tested x86_64.

Also fixed the following whitespace nits to satisfy the push:
sysdeps/alpha/alphaev6/memset.S:142: space before tab in indent.
sysdeps/alpha/configure:1: new blank line at EOF.
sysdeps/alpha/fpu/e_sqrt.c:126: space before tab in indent.
sysdeps/alpha/preconfigure:1: new blank line at EOF.
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/syscalls.list:1: new blank line at EOF.

This patch moves the AArch64 port to the main sysdeps hierarchy. The
move is essentially:
git mv ports/sysdeps/aarch64 sysdeps/aarch64
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64 sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64
The README is updated and I've updated ChangeLog.aarch64 along the
lines of the ARM move. The AArch64 build has been tested to confirm
that there were no changes in objdump -dr output or the shared
objects.

I've moved the MIPS port from ports to the main sysdeps hierarchy.
Beyond the README update, the move of the files was simply
git mv ports/sysdeps/mips sysdeps/mips
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/mips sysdeps/unix/mips
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips
and in addition to the ChangeLog entries here, I put a note at the top
of ports/ChangeLog.mips similar to those in other files.
Tested that disassembly of installed shared libraries for mips is the
same before and after this patch (except for ld.so where paths in
assertions are involved, as for arm).
* sysdeps/mips: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/mips.
* sysdeps/unix/mips: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/unix/mips.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips: Move directory from
ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips.
* README: Update listing for mips-*-linux-gnu and
mips64-*-linux-gnu.
* sysdeps/mips: Move directory to ../sysdeps/mips.
* sysdeps/unix/mips: Move directory to ../sysdeps/unix/mips.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips: Move directory to
../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips.

I've moved the TILE-Gx and TILEPro ports to the main sysdeps hierarchy,
along with the linux-generic ports infrastructure. Beyond the README
update, the move was just
git mv ports/sysdeps/tile sysdeps/tile
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tile \
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tile
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/generic \
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/generic
I updated the relevant ChangeLogs along the lines of the ARM move
in commit c6bfe5c4d75 and tested the 64-bit tilegx build to confirm that
there were no changes in "objdump -dr" output in the shared objects.

I've moved the ARM port from ports to the main sysdeps hierarchy.
Beyond the README update, the move of the files was simply
git mv ports/sysdeps/arm sysdeps/arm
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/arm sysdeps/unix/arm
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm
and in addition to the ChangeLog entries here, I put a note at the top
of ports/ChangeLog.arm similar to that at the top of
ChangeLog.powerpc. There is deliberately no NEWS change, as I think
it makes the most sense to put in a general note above all ports
having moved if we can achieve that for 2.20.
Tested that disassembly of installed shared libraries for arm is the
same before and after this patch, except for data (not instructions)
in ld.so (there are assertions in sysdeps/arm/dl-machine.h, and the
path by which that file is found, and so by which it appears in the
assertion message, changes as a result of the move).
* sysdeps/arm: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/arm.
* sysdeps/unix/arm: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/unix/arm.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm: Move directory from
ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm.
* README: Update listing for arm-*-linux-gnueabi.
ports/ChangeLog.arm:
* sysdeps/arm: Move directory to ../sysdeps/arm.
* sysdeps/unix/arm: Move directory to ../sysdeps.arm.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm: Move directory to
../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm.

This patch removes the am33 port (no other port #includes any files
from it), as previously discussed (see
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-ports/2014-01/msg00046.html>).
