2009-07-06Optimize test for valid ELF symbol types in lookup function.ibm/masterUlrich Drepper1-0/+4
2009-07-05Fix wrong PPC_FEATURE_* values.Andreas Schwab1-0/+5
Nothing uses these wrong values yet, but it fixes a warning due to conflicting definitions in <asm/cputable.h>.
2009-07-03Minor cleanups in recently added files.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+3
2009-07-03Align functions to 16-byte boundary.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+8
Some of the new multi-arch string functions for x86-64 were not aligned to 16 byte boundarie,s possibly creating unnecessary cache line misses and delays.
2009-07-03Add SSE4.2 support for strcspn, strpbrk, and strspn on x86-64.H.J. Lu1-0/+16
2009-07-02Fix handling of xmm6 in ld.so audit hooks on x86-64.H.J. Lu1-0/+13
2009-07-02SSSE3 strcpy/stpcpy for x86-64H.J. Lu1-0/+19
This patch adds SSSE3 strcpy/stpcpy. I got up to 4X speed up on Core 2 and Core i7. I disabled it on Atom since SSSE3 version is slower for shorter (<64byte) data.
2009-07-02Fix possible race when freeing object in fast bin list.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+5
2009-07-01Fix NIS and NIS+ getnetbyaddr backends.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+5
The addresses were interpreted as class-based network addresses.
2009-07-01Fix getent networks lookup and resulting incorrect NSS change.Ulrich Drepper1-2/+3
I changed the files NSS backend for networks because I thought the getent use of getnetbyaddr is correct. But it isn't. Undo parts of the last change and fix getent.
2009-07-01Fix getnetbyaddr implementation.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+7
There were two problems in the getnetbyaddr implementation. The type argument is pretty much useless since (almost) no input file contains this information and the NSS backends make up the value they fill in for the n_addrtype field. Therefore we now declare that passing AF_UNSPEC is always recognized. Secondly, the files backend didn't compare the network numbers with the correct endianess. Also change getent to take advantage of the type parameter change.
2009-06-30Determine and store processor family and model on x86-64.H.J. Lu1-0/+10
2009-06-26Implement second fallback mode for DNS requests.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+11
There is some more shardware/software out there which has problems if two DNS requests are sent using the same tuple (source addr, source port, dest addr, dest port) This can range from firewalls to load balancers. Some of the vendors already fixed it in response to this problem. Still, we need a way to make glibc work with broken environments. The single-request-reopen flag can be used or we fall back automatically to this mode.
2009-06-25Whitespace fix.Ulrich Drepper1-1/+1
2009-06-25Fix text relocation on ppc32.Andreas Schwab1-0/+5
The ____longjmp_chk implementation didn't load from memory the right way.
2009-06-24Fix cfa offset for saved registers in PPC sqrt implementations.Andreas Schwab1-0/+8
2009-06-23Handle empty TZ strings at the end of new-style timzeone files correctly.Andreas Schwab1-0/+4
2009-06-22Update from translation team.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+2
2009-06-22Update from translation team.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+4
2009-06-22Add SSE4.2 support for strcmp and strncmp on x86-64.H.J. Lu1-0/+12
2009-06-22Add more IFUNC tests.H.J. Lu1-0/+58
Mostly tests around not-exported IFUNC functions, IFUNC in statically linked binaries and PIEs, etc.
2009-06-20Fix broken up NIS groups for compat NSS module.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+21
The check for the inclusion of a group in the result gave up too early in case of broken-up NIS groups. We now fall back automatically to the slow mode of using getgrent_r. As an optimization, if there is not blacklist we need not perform the check in the first place and therefore can just accept the results of the initgroups_dyn callback.
2009-06-18Add some more tests to malloc to detect corruptions.Ulrich Drepper1-1/+4
2009-06-18Add 802.15.4 definitions to header files.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+11
2009-06-17Use +link-pie Makefile rule to link PIE ifunc tests.H.J. Lu1-0/+5
2009-06-16Build pt_chown as PIE.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+4
2009-06-16Don't treat bug reporting message as a format string.Andreas Schwab1-0/+11
2009-06-16Git didn't see the ChangeLog entry.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+4
2009-06-16Extend pt_chown to drop privileges.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+4
If libcap is available, use it to drop privileges in pt_chown before starting the work to change the permissions and ownership of the slave device.
2009-06-16Fix x86-64 memchr for large lengths.Jakub Jelinek1-0/+7
2009-06-16Consolidate PIE linking Makefile rules.H.J. Lu1-0/+8
2009-06-16Fix incorrect use of cmpldi in 32-bit PPC code.Ryan S. Arnold1-0/+7
The 32-bit PowerPC POWER6 memcpy uses the cmpldi insn when it should use a cmplwi. BZ #10107
2009-06-16Fold Linux-specific grantpt code into Unix version.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+6
2009-06-16Run tst-fgetwc with necessary envvar.Ulrich Drepper1-3/+3
2009-06-15Optimize pt_chown.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+3
Don't call chown and chmod if not necessary.
2009-06-15Fix permission of slave device on devpts if necessary.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+5
If devptr is misconfigured the slave device permission after grantpt might not be 0620. BZ #10166
2009-06-15When iterating over CPU bitmask, don't try more than CPU_SETSIZE.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+3
2009-06-15Fix type of nd_opt_home_agent_info_preference.Arnaud Ebalard1-0/+5
2009-06-15Extend getent to handle the shadow database.Aurelien Jarno1-0/+3
BZ #10207
2009-06-15Fix memory leak when batch-reading large NIS password maps.Joe Landers1-0/+5
Not the whole was traversed in the function to free all buffers. BZ #10203
2009-06-15(do_test): Use de_DE.UTF-8 as locale name.Bruce Dubbs1-0/+4
2009-06-15Preserve message printed before abort.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+11
The terminal output etc is not visible in a core file. The new libc-internal variable __abort_msg will point to a string with the message which has been printed before the abort in case abort is called from inside libc. BZ #10217
2009-06-15Fix computation of tzspec_len.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+2
Without this it should never have worked that we can use the embedded envvar in the timezone data files for dates after the last matching rule.
2009-06-15Handle leap seconds even if no DST rule exists.Akinori Hattori1-0/+5
This fixes BZ #10211.
2009-06-15Update from tzcode2009i.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+4
2009-06-15Update timezone data from tzdata2009i.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+22
2009-06-15libc part of prelink IFUNC support.Jakub Jelinek1-0/+8
The dl-lookup.c changes are needed for prelink (support in prelink checked into SVN, tested for both i?86 and x86-64), dl-irel.h just something I discovered by code inspection.
2009-06-14Update from translation team.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+2
2009-06-14Fix warnings when using <sys/select.h>.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+8
gcc 4.4 is more picky. And the x86-64 version of <bits/select.h> contained a now unnecessary asm optimization. Remove it.
2009-06-12Implement pthread_sigqueue.Ulrich Drepper1-0/+4
The kernel from 2.3.31 on supports the rt_tgsigqueueinfo syscall. Use it to implement the non-standard extension which, like sigqueue, can pass additional data to the receiving thread.
