2025-03-12math: Refactor how to use libm-test-ulpsAdhemerval Zanella1-11/+1
The current approach tracks math maximum supported errors by explicitly setting them per function and architecture. On newer implementations or new compiler versions, the file is updated with newer values if it shows higher results. The idea is to track the maximum known error, to update the manual with the obtained values. The constant libm-test-ulps shows little value, where it is usually a mechanical change done by the maintainer, for past releases it is usually ignored whether the ulp change resulted from a compiler regression, and the math tests already have a maximum ulp error that triggers a regression. It was shown by a recent update after the new acosf [1] implementation that is correctly rounded, where the libm-test-ulps was indeed from a compiler issue. This patch removes all arch-specific libm-test-ulps, adds system generic libm-test-ulps where applicable, and changes its semantics. The generic files now track specific implementation constraints, like if it is expected to be correctly rounded, or if the system-specific has different error expectations. Now multiple libm-test-ulps can be defined, and system-specific overrides generic implementation. This is for the case where arch-specific implementation might show worse precision than generic implementation, for instance, the cbrtf on i686. Regressions are only reported if the implementation shows larger errors than 9 ulps (13 for IBM long double) unless it is overridden by libm-test-ulps and the maximum error is not printed at the end of tests. The regen-ulps rule is also removed since it does not make sense to update the libm-test-ulps automatically. The manual error table is also removed, Paul Zimmermann and others have been tracking libm precision with a more comprehensive analysis for some releases; so link to his work instead.

2024-10-11manual: Fix and test @deftypef* function formattingCarlos O'Donell1-4/+27
The manual contained several instances of incorrect formatting that were correct texinfo but produced incorrectly rendered manuals or incorrect behaviour from the tooling. The most important was incorrect quoting of function returns by failing to use {} to quote the return. The impact of this mistake means that 'info libc func' does not jump to the function in question but instead to the introductory page under the assumption that func doesn't exist. The function returns are now correctly quoted. The second issue was the use of a category specifier with @deftypefun which doesn't accept a category specifier. If a category specifier is required then @deftypefn needs to be used. This is corrected by changing the command to @deftypefn for such functions that used {Deprecated function} as a category. The last issue is a missing space between the function name and the arguments which results in odd function names like "epoll_wait(int" instead of "epoll_wait". This also impacts the use of 'info libc' and is corrected. We additionally remove ';' from the end of function arguments and add an 'int' return type for dprintf. Lastly we add a new test check-deftype.sh which verifies the expected formatting of @deftypefun, @deftypefunx, @deftypefn, and @deftypefnx. The new test is also run as the summary file is generated to ensure we don't generate incorrect results. The existing check-safety.sh is also run directly as a test to increase coverage since the existing tests only ran on manual install. The new tests now run as part of the standard "make check" that pre-commit CI runs and developers should run. No regressions on x86_64. HTML and PDF rendering reviewed and looks correct for all changes. Reviewed-by: H.J. Lu <hjl.tools@gmail.com>
2024-07-09manual: add syscallsDJ Delorie1-0/+1
The purpose of this patch is to add some system calls that (1) aren't otherwise documented, and (2) are merely redirected to the kernel, so can refer to their documentation; and define a standard way of doing so in the future. A more detailed explaination of how system calls are wrapped is added along with reference to the Linux Man-Pages project. Default version of man-pages is in configure.ac but can be overridden by --with-man-pages=X.Y Reviewed-by: Alejandro Colomar <alx@kernel.org>
2024-01-03Implement C23 <stdbit.h>Joseph Myers1-1/+1
C23 adds a header <stdbit.h> with various functions and type-generic macros for bit-manipulation of unsigned integers (plus macro defines related to endianness). Implement this header for glibc. The functions have both inline definitions in the header (referenced by macros defined in the header) and copies with external linkage in the library (which are implemented in terms of those macros to avoid duplication). They are documented in the glibc manual. Tests, as well as verifying results for various inputs (of both the macros and the out-of-line functions), verify the types of those results (which showed up a bug in an earlier version with the type-generic macro stdc_has_single_bit wrongly returning a promoted type), that the macros can be used at top level in a source file (so don't use ({})), that they evaluate their arguments exactly once, and that the macros for the type-specific functions have the expected implicit conversions to the relevant argument type. Jakub previously referred to -Wconversion warnings in type-generic macros, so I've included a test with -Wconversion (but the only warnings I saw and fixed from that test were actually in inline functions in the <stdbit.h> header - not anything coming from use of the type-generic macros themselves). This implementation of the type-generic macros does not handle unsigned __int128, or unsigned _BitInt types with a width other than that of a standard integer type (and C23 doesn't require the header to handle such types either). Support for those types, using the new type-generic built-in functions Jakub's added for GCC 14, can reasonably be added in a followup (along of course with associated tests). This implementation doesn't do anything special to handle C++, or have any tests of functionality in C++ beyond the existing tests that all headers can be compiled in C++ code; it's not clear exactly what form this header should take in C++, but probably not one using macros. DIS ballot comment AT-107 asks for the word "count" to be added to the names of the stdc_leading_zeros, stdc_leading_ones, stdc_trailing_zeros and stdc_trailing_ones functions and macros. I don't think it's likely to be accepted (accepting any technical comments would mean having an FDIS ballot), but if it is accepted at the WG14 meeting (22-26 January in Strasbourg, starting with DIS ballot comment handling) then there would still be time to update glibc for the renaming before the 2.39 release. The new functions and header are placed in the stdlib/ directory in glibc, rather than creating a new toplevel stdbit/ or putting them in string/ alongside ffs. Tested for x86_64 and x86.

2021-12-28elf: Add _dl_find_object functionFlorian Weimer1-1/+1
It can be used to speed up the libgcc unwinder, and the internal _dl_find_dso_for_object function (which is used for caller identification in dlopen and related functions, and in dladdr). _dl_find_object is in the internal namespace due to bug 28503. If libgcc switches to _dl_find_object, this namespace issue will be fixed. It is located in libc for two reasons: it is necessary to forward the call to the static libc after static dlopen, and there is a link ordering issue with -static-libgcc and libgcc_eh.a because libc.so is not a linker script that includes ld.so in the glibc build tree (so that GCC's internal -lc after libgcc_eh.a does not pick up ld.so). It is necessary to do the i386 customization in the sysdeps/x86/bits/dl_find_object.h header shared with x86-64 because otherwise, multilib installations are broken. The implementation uses software transactional memory, as suggested by Torvald Riegel. Two copies of the supporting data structures are used, also achieving full async-signal-safety.

2018-10-29Patch to require Python 3.4 or later to build glibc.Joseph Myers1-1/+1
This patch makes Python 3.4 or later a required tool for building glibc, so allowing changes of awk, perl etc. code used in the build and test to Python code without any such changes needing makefile conditionals or to handle older Python versions. This patch makes the configure test for Python check the version and give an error if Python is missing or too old, and removes makefile conditionals that are no longer needed. It does not itself convert any code from another language to Python, and does not remove any compatibility with older Python versions from existing scripts.

This patch extends gen-libm-test.py to generate the ulps table for the manual, so meaning there is only a single ulps file parser needed and another Perl script is eliminated. As with the introduction of gen-libm-test.py, this is designed to generate exactly the same libm-err.texi as libm-err-tab.pl did. (gen-libm-test.py is still shorter in lines than the old gen-libm-test.pl even after this patch.) Note that this introduces a Python dependency for building the manual, which is thus noted in install.texi and NEWS.

2017-10-05Remove add-ons mechanism.Joseph Myers1-6/+3
glibc has an add-ons mechanism to allow additional software to be integrated into the glibc build. Such add-ons may be within the glibc source tree, or outside it at a path passed to the --enable-add-ons configure option. localedata and crypt were once add-ons, distributed in separate release tarballs, but long since stopped using that mechanism. Linuxthreads was always an add-on. Ports spent some time as an add-on with separate release tarballs, then was first moved into the glibc source tree, then had its sysdeps files moved into the main sysdeps hierarchy so the add-ons mechanism was no longer used. NPTL spent some time as an add-on in the main glibc tree before stopping using the add-on mechanism. libidn used to have separate release tarballs but no longer does so, but still uses the add-ons mechanism within the glibc source tree. Various other software has supported building with the add-ons mechanism at times in the past, but I don't think any is still widely used. Add-ons involve significant, little-used complexity in the glibc build system, and make it hard to understand what the space of possible glibc configurations is. This patch removes the add-ons mechanism. libidn is now built via the Subdirs mechanism to cause any configuration using sysdeps/unix/inet to build libidn; HAVE_LIBIDN (which effectively means shared libraries are available) is now defined via sysdeps/unix/inet/configure. Various references to add-ons around the source tree are removed (in the case of maint.texi, the example list of sysdeps directories is still very out of date). Externally maintained ports should now put their files in the normal sysdeps directory structure rather than being arranged as add-ons; they probably need to change e.g. elf.h anyway, rather than actually being able to work just as a drop-in subtree. Hurd libpthread should be arranged similarly to NPTL, so some files might go in a hurd-pthreads (or similar) top-level directory in glibc, while sysdeps files should go in the normal sysdeps directory structure (possibly in hurd or hurd-pthreads subdirectories, just as there are nptl subdirectories in the sysdeps tree).

2017-06-15manual: Replace summary.awk with summary.pl.Rical Jasan1-5/+4
The Summary is now generated from @standards, and syntax-checking is performed. If invalid @standards syntax is detected, summary.pl will fail, reporting all errors. Failure and error reporting is disabled for now, however, since much of the manual is still incomplete wrt. header and standards annotations. Note that the sorting order of the Summary has changed; summary.pl respects the locale, like summary.awk did, but the use of LC_ALL=C is introduced in the Makefile. Other notable deviations are improved detection of the annotated elements' names, which are used for sorting, and improved detection of the @node used to reference into the manual. The most noticeable difference in the rendered Summary is that entries may now contain multiple lines, one for each header and standard combination. summary.pl accepts a `--help' option, which details the expected syntax of @standards. If errors are reported, the user is directed to this feature for further information. * manual/Makefile: Generate summary.texi with summary.pl. Force use of the C locale.

2014-02-26Consistently include Makeconfig after defining subdir.Joseph Myers1-3/+2
In <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-01/msg00196.html> I noted it was necessary to add includes of Makeconfig early in various subdirectory makefiles for the tests-special variable settings added by that patch to be conditional on configuration information. No-one commented on the general question there of whether Makeconfig should always be included immediately after the definition of subdir. This patch implements that early inclusion of Makeconfig in each directory (which is a lot easier than consistent placement of includes of Rules). Includes are added if needed, or moved up if already present. Subdirectory "all:" targets are removed, since Makeconfig provides one. There is potential for further cleanups I haven't done. Rules and Makerules have code such as ifneq "$(findstring env,$(origin headers))" "" headers := endif to override to empty any value of various variables that came from the environment. I think there is a case for Makeconfig setting all the subdirectory variables (other than subdir) to empty to ensure no outside value is going to take effect if a subdirectory fails to define a variable. (A list of such variables, possibly out of date and incomplete, is in manual/maint.texi.) Rules and Makerules would give errors if Makeconfig hadn't already been included, instead of including it themselves. The special code to override values coming from the environment would then be obsolete and could be removed. Tested x86_64, including that installed binaries are identical before and after the patch. * argp/Makefile: Include Makeconfig immediately after defining subdir. * assert/Makefile: Likewise. * benchtests/Makefile: Likewise. * catgets/Makefile: Likewise. * conform/Makefile: Likewise. * crypt/Makefile: Likewise. * csu/Makefile: Likewise.
