Version 2.38

Major new features:

* When C2X features are enabled and the base argument is 0 or 2, the
  following functions support binary integers prefixed by 0b or 0B as
  input: strtol, strtoll, strtoul, strtoull, strtol_l, strtoll_l,
  strtoul_l, strtoull_l, strtoimax, strtoumax, strtoq, strtouq, wcstol,
  wcstoll, wcstoul, wcstoull, wcstol_l, wcstoll_l, wcstoul_l,
  wcstoull_l, wcstoimax, wcstoumax, wcstoq, wcstouq.  Similarly, the
  following functions support binary integers prefixed by 0b or 0B as
  input to the %i format: fscanf, scanf, sscanf, vscanf, vsscanf,
  vfscanf, fwscanf, wscanf, swscanf, vfwscanf, vwscanf, vswscanf; those
  functions also support the %b format for binary integers, with or
  without such a prefix and independent of standards mode.

* PRIb*, PRIB* and SCNb* macros from C2X have been added to
  <inttypes.h>.

* printf-family functions now support the wN format length modifiers for
  arguments of type intN_t, int_leastN_t, uintN_t or uint_leastN_t (for
  example, %w32d to print int32_t or int_least32_t in decimal, or %w32x
  to print uint32_t or uint_least32_t in hexadecimal) and the wfN format
  length modifiers for arguments of type int_fastN_t or uint_fastN_t, as
  specified in draft ISO C2X.

* A new tunable, glibc.pthread.stack_hugetlb, can be used to disable
  Transparent Huge Pages (THP) in stack allocation at pthread_create.

* Support for x86_64 running on Hurd has been added.  This port requires
  as least binutils 2.40 and GCC 13:

    - x86_64-gnu

* Added libmvec vector math library support to AArch64.  It requires
  GCC version >= 10.1.0.  It can be disabled via --disable-mathvec,
  however that is not a supported configuration as it changes the ABI.
  The symbol names follow the AArch64 vector ABI, they are declared
  in math.h and have to be called manually at this point.

* The strlcpy and strlcat functions have been added.  They are derived
  from OpenBSD, and are expected to be added to a future POSIX version.

Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting compatibility:

* In the Linux kernel for the hppa/parisc architecture some of the
  MADV_XXX constants were changed to have the same values as the other
  architectures.  New programs compiled with this glibc version and which
  use the madvise call will require at least Linux kernel version 6.2,
  alternatively stable kernels from versions 6.1.6, 5.15.87, 5.10.163,
  5.4.228, 4.19.270 or 4.14.303.

* The --disable-experimental-malloc is no longer available.  The per-thread
  cache can still be disable per-application using tunables
  (glibc.malloc.tcache_count set to zero).

* The configure option --enable-tunables has been removed.  The tunable
  feature is now always enabled.

Changes to build and runtime requirements:

  [Add changes to build and runtime requirements here]

Security related changes:

  CVE-2023-25139: When the printf family of functions is called with a
  format specifier that uses an <apostrophe> (enable grouping) and a
  minimum width specifier, the resulting output could be larger than
  reasonably expected by a caller that computed a tight bound on the
  buffer size.  The resulting larger than expected output could result
  in a buffer overflow in the printf family of functions.

The following bugs are resolved with this release:

  [The release manager will add the list generated by
  scripts/list-fixed-bugs.py just before the release.]

Version 2.37

Major new features:

* The getent tool now supports the --no-addrconfig option. The output of
  getent with --no-addrconfig may contain addresses of families not
  configured on the current host i.e. as-if you had not passed
  AI_ADDRCONFIG to getaddrinfo calls.

Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting compatibility:

* The dynamic linker no longer loads shared objects from the "tls"
  subdirectories on the library search path or the subdirectory that
  corresponds to the AT_PLATFORM system name, or employs the legacy AT_HWCAP
  search mechanism, which was deprecated in version 2.33.

Security related changes:

  CVE-2022-39046: When the syslog function is passed a crafted input
  string larger than 1024 bytes, it reads uninitialized memory from the
  heap and prints it to the target log file, potentially revealing a
  portion of the contents of the heap.

    length in fortify mode

Version 2.36

Major new features:

* Support for DT_RELR relative relocation format has been added to
  glibc.  This is a new ELF dynamic tag that improves the size of
  relative relocations in shared object files and position independent
  executables (PIE).  DT_RELR generation requires linker support for
  -z pack-relative-relocs option, which is supported for some targets
  in recent binutils versions.  Lazy binding doesn't apply to DT_RELR.

* On Linux, the pidfd_open, pidfd_getfd, and pidfd_send_signal functions
  have been added.  The pidfd functionality provides access to a process
  while avoiding the issue of PID reuse on traditional Unix systems.

* On Linux, the process_madvise function has been added. It has the
  same functionality as madvise but alters the target process identified
  by the pidfd.

* On Linux, the process_mrelease function has been added.  It allows a
  caller to release the memory of a dying process.  The release of the
  memory is carried out in the context of the caller, using the caller's
  CPU affinity, and priority with CPU usage accounted to the caller.

* The “no-aaaa” DNS stub resolver option has been added.  System
  administrators can use it to suppress AAAA queries made by the stub
  resolver, including AAAA lookups triggered by NSS-based interfaces
  such as getaddrinfo.  Only DNS lookups are affected: IPv6 data in
  /etc/hosts is still used, getaddrinfo with AI_PASSIVE will still
  produce IPv6 addresses, and configured IPv6 name servers are still
  used.  To produce correct Name Error (NXDOMAIN) results, AAAA queries
  are translated to A queries.  The new resolver option is intended
  primarily for diagnostic purposes, to rule out that AAAA DNS queries
  have adverse impact.  It is incompatible with EDNS0 usage and DNSSEC
  validation by applications.

* On Linux, the fsopen, fsmount, move_mount, fsconfig, fspick, open_tree,
  and mount_setattr have been added.  They are part of the new Linux kernel
  mount APIs that allow applications to more flexibly configure and operate
  on filesystem mounts.  The new mount APIs are specifically designed to work
  with namespaces.

* localedef now accepts locale definition files encoded in UTF-8.
  Previously, input bytes not within the ASCII range resulted in
  unpredictable output.

* Support for the mbrtoc8 and c8rtomb multibyte/UTF-8 character conversion
  functions has been added per the ISO C2X N2653 and C++20 P0482R6 proposals.
  Support for the char8_t typedef has been added per the ISO C2X N2653
  proposal.  The functions are declared in uchar.h in C2X mode or when the
  _GNU_SOURCE macro or C++20 __cpp_char8_t feature test macro is defined.
  The char8_t typedef is declared in uchar.h in C2X mode or when the
  _GNU_SOURCE macro is defined and the C++20 __cpp_char8_t feature test macro
  is not defined (if __cpp_char8_t is defined, then char8_t is a builtin type).

* The functions arc4random, arc4random_buf, and arc4random_uniform have been
  added.  The functions wrap getrandom and/or /dev/urandom to return high-
  quality randomness from the kernel.

* Support for LoongArch running on Linux has been added.  This port requires
  as least binutils 2.38, GCC 12, and Linux 5.19.  Currently only hard-float
  ABI is supported:

    - loongarch64-linux-gnu

  The LoongArch ABI is 64-bit little-endian.

Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting compatibility:

* Support for prelink will be removed in the next release; this includes
  removal of the LD_TRACE_PRELINKING, and LD_USE_LOAD_BIAS, environment
  variables and their functionality in the dynamic loader.

* The Linux kernel version check has been removed along with the
  LD_ASSUME_KERNEL environment variable.  The minimum kernel used to built
  glibc is still provided through NT_GNU_ABI_TAG ELF note and also printed
  when libc.so is issued directly.

* On Linux, The LD_LIBRARY_VERSION environment variable has been removed.

Version 2.35

Major new features:

* Unicode 14.0.0 Support: Character encoding, character type info, and
  transliteration tables are all updated to Unicode 14.0.0, using
  generator scripts contributed by Mike FABIAN (Red Hat).

* Bump r_version in the debugger interface to 2 and add a new field,
  r_next, support multiple namespaces.

* Support for the C.UTF-8 locale has been added to glibc.  The locale
  supports full code-point sorting for all valid Unicode code points.  A
  limitation in the framework for fnmatch, regexec, and regcomp requires
  a compromise to save space and only ASCII-based range expressions are
  supported for now (see bug 28255).  The full size of the locale is
  only ~400KiB, with 346KiB coming from LC_CTYPE information for
  Unicode.  This locale harmonizes downstream C.UTF-8 already shipping
  in various downstream distributions.  The locale is not built into
  glibc, and must be installed.

* <math.h> functions that round their results to a narrower type, and
  corresponding <tgmath.h> macros, are added from TS 18661-1:2014, TS
  18661-3:2015 and draft ISO C2X:

  - fsqrt, fsqrtl, dsqrtl and corresponding fMsqrtfN, fMsqrtfNx,
    fMxsqrtfN and fMxsqrtfNx functions.

  - ffma, ffmal, dfmal and corresponding fMfmafN, fMfmafNx, fMxfmafN and
    fMxfmafNx functions.

* <math.h> functions for floating-point maximum and minimum,
  corresponding to new operations in IEEE 754-2019, and corresponding
  <tgmath.h> macros, are added from draft ISO C2X: fmaximum,
  fmaximum_num, fmaximum_mag, fmaximum_mag_num, fminimum, fminimum_num,
  fminimum_mag, fminimum_mag_num and corresponding functions for float,
  long double, _FloatN and _FloatNx.

* <math.h> macros for single-precision float constants are added as a
  GNU extension: M_Ef, M_LOG2Ef, M_LOG10Ef, M_LN2f, M_LN10f, M_PIf,
  M_PI_2f, M_PI_4f, M_1_PIf, M_2_PIf, M_2_SQRTPIf, M_SQRT2f and
  M_SQRT1_2f.

* The __STDC_IEC_60559_BFP__ and __STDC_IEC_60559_COMPLEX__ macros are
  predefined as specified in TS 18661-1:2014.

* The exp10 functions in <math.h> now have a corresponding type-generic
  macro in <tgmath.h>.

* The ISO C2X macro _PRINTF_NAN_LEN_MAX has been added to <stdio.h>.

* printf-family functions now support the %b format for output of
  integers in binary, as specified in draft ISO C2X, and the %B variant
  of that format recommended by draft ISO C2X.

* A new DSO sorting algorithm has been added in the dynamic linker that uses
  topological sorting by depth-first search (DFS), solving performance issues
  of the existing sorting algorithm when encountering particular circular
  object dependency cases.

* A new tunable, glibc.rtld.dynamic_sort, can be used to select between
  the two DSO sorting algorithms.  The default setting of '2' uses the
  new DFS-based algorithm.  The setting '1' switches to the old
  algorithm used in glibc 2.33 and earlier.

* ABI support for a new function '__memcmpeq'. '__memcmpeq' is meant
  to be used by compilers for optimizing usage of 'memcmp' when its
  return value is only used for its boolean status.

* Support for automatically registering threads with the Linux rseq
  system call has been added.  This system call is implemented starting
  from Linux 4.18.  The Restartable Sequences ABI accelerates user-space
  operations on per-cpu data.  It allows user-space to perform updates
  on per-cpu data without requiring heavy-weight atomic operations.
  Automatically registering threads allows all libraries, including
  libc, to make immediate use of the rseq support by using the
  documented ABI, via the __rseq_flags, __rseq_offset, and __rseq_size
  variables.  The GNU C Library manual has details on integration of
  Restartable Sequences.

* A symbolic link to the dynamic linker is now installed under
  /usr/bin/ld.so (or more precisely, '${bindir}/ld.so').

* All programs and the testsuite in glibc are now built as position independent
  executables (PIE) by default on toolchains and architectures that support it.
  Further, if the toolchain and architecture supports it, even static programs
  are built as PIE and the resultant glibc can be used to build static PIE
  executables.  A new option --disable-default-pie has been added to disable
  this behavior and get a non-PIE build.  This option replaces
  --enable-static-pie, which no longer has any effect on the build
  configuration.

* On Linux, a new tunable, glibc.malloc.hugetlb, can be used to
  either make malloc issue madvise plus MADV_HUGEPAGE on mmap and sbrk
  or to use huge pages directly with mmap calls with the MAP_HUGETLB
  flags).  The former can improve performance when Transparent Huge Pages
  is set to 'madvise' mode while the latter uses the system reserved
  huge pages.

* The printf family of functions now handles the flagged %#m conversion
  specifier, printing errno as an error constant (similar to strerrorname_np).

* The function _dl_find_object has been added.  In-process unwinders
  can use it to efficiently locate unwinding information for a code
  address.

* Support for OpenRISC running on Linux has been added.  This port requires
  as least binutils 2.35, GCC 11, and Linux 5.4.  Currently only soft-float
  ABI is supported:

    - or1k-linux-gnu

  The OpenRISC ABI is 32-bit big-endian and uses 64-bit time (y2038 safe) and
  64-bit file offsets (LFS default).

* A new configure option, --with-rtld-early-cflags, can be used to
  specify additional compiler flags for building the early startup code
  of the dynamic linker.  On targets which have CPU compatibility
  checks, this can help to ensure that proper diagnostics are printed if
  the dynamic loader runs on an incompatible CPU.

* On Linux, the epoll_pwait2 function has been added.  It is similar to
  epoll_wait with the difference the timeout has nanoseconds resolution.

* The function posix_spawn_file_actions_addtcsetpgrp_np has been added,
  enabling posix_spawn and posix_spawnp to set the controlling terminal in
  the new process in a race free manner.  This function is a GNU extension.

* Source fortification (_FORTIFY_SOURCE) level 3 is now available for
  applications compiling with glibc and gcc 12 and later. Level 3 leverages
  the __builtin_dynamic_object_size function to deliver additional
  fortification balanced against additional runtime cost (checking non-constant
  bounds).

* The audit libraries will avoid unnecessary slowdown if it is not required
  PLT tracking (by not implementing the la_pltenter or la_pltexit callbacks).

Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting compatibility:

* On x86-64, the LD_PREFER_MAP_32BIT_EXEC environment variable support
  has been removed since the first PT_LOAD segment is no longer executable
  due to defaulting to -z separate-code.

* The r_version update in the debugger interface makes the glibc binary
  incompatible with GDB binaries built without the following commits:

  c0154a4a21a gdb: Don't assume r_ldsomap when r_version > 1 on Linux
  4eb629d50d4 gdbserver: Check r_version < 1 for Linux debugger interface

  when audit modules or dlmopen are used.

* Intel MPX support (lazy PLT, ld.so profile, and LD_AUDIT) has been removed.

* The --enable-static-pie option is no longer available.  The glibc build
  configuration script now automatically detects static-pie support in the
  toolchain and architecture and enables it if available.

* The catchsegv script and associated libSegFault.so shared object have
  been removed.  There are widely-deployed out-of-process alternatives for
  catching coredumps and backtraces.

* Support for prelink will be removed in the next release; this includes
  removal of the LD_TRACE_PRELINKING, and LD_USE_LOAD_BIAS, environment
  variables and their functionality in the dynamic loader.

* The LD_TRACE_PRELINKING environment variable has been removed.  Similar
  functionality to obtain the program mapping address can be achieved by
  using LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS to value of 2.

* The LD_USE_LOAD_BIAS has been removed.  The variable was mainly used to
  support prelink PIE binaries.

Changes to build and runtime requirements:

* The audit module interface version LAV_CURRENT is increased to enable
  proper bind-now support.  The loader now advertises via the la_symbind
  flags that PLT trace is not possible.  New audit modules require the
  new dynamic loader supporting the latest LAV_CURRENT version. Old audit
  modules are still loaded for all targets except aarch64.

* The audit interface on aarch64 is extended to support both the indirect
  result location register (x8) and NEON Q register.  Old audit modules are
  rejected by the loader.  Audit modules must be rebuilt to use the newer
  structure sizes and the latest module interface version for LAV_CURRENT.

Version 2.34

Major new features:

* In order to support smoother in-place-upgrades and to simplify
  the implementation of the runtime all functionality formerly
  implemented in the libraries libpthread, libdl, libutil, libanl has
  been integrated into libc.  New applications do not need to link with
  -lpthread, -ldl, -lutil, -lanl anymore.  For backwards compatibility,
  empty static archives libpthread.a, libdl.a, libutil.a, libanl.a are
  provided, so that the linker options keep working.  Applications which
  have been linked against glibc 2.33 or earlier continue to load the
  corresponding shared objects (which are now empty).  The integration
  of those libraries into libc means that additional symbols become
  available by default.  This can cause applications that contain weak
  references to take unexpected code paths that would only have been
  used in previous glibc versions when e.g. preloading libpthread.so.0,
  potentially exposing application bugs.

* When _DYNAMIC_STACK_SIZE_SOURCE or _GNU_SOURCE are defined,
  PTHREAD_STACK_MIN is no longer constant and is redefined to
  sysconf(_SC_THREAD_STACK_MIN).  This supports dynamic sized register
  sets for modern architectural features like Arm SVE.

* Add _SC_MINSIGSTKSZ and _SC_SIGSTKSZ.  When _DYNAMIC_STACK_SIZE_SOURCE
  or _GNU_SOURCE are defined, MINSIGSTKSZ and SIGSTKSZ are no longer
  constant on Linux.  MINSIGSTKSZ is redefined to sysconf(_SC_MINSIGSTKSZ)
  and SIGSTKSZ is redefined to sysconf (_SC_SIGSTKSZ).  This supports
  dynamic sized register sets for modern architectural features like
  Arm SVE.

* The dynamic linker implements the --list-diagnostics option, printing
  a dump of information related to IFUNC resolver operation and
  glibc-hwcaps subdirectory selection.

* On Linux, the function execveat has been added.  It operates similar to
  execve and it is is already used to implement fexecve without requiring
  /proc to be mounted.  However, different than fexecve, if the syscall is not
  supported by the kernel an error is returned instead of trying a fallback.

* The ISO C2X function timespec_getres has been added.

* The feature test macro __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_EXT__, from draft ISO
  C2X, is supported to enable declarations of functions defined in Annex F
  of C2X.  Those declarations are also enabled when
  __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_BFP_EXT__, as specified in TS 18661-1, is
  defined, and when _GNU_SOURCE is defined.

* On powerpc64*, glibc can now be compiled without scv support using the
  --disable-scv configure option.

* Add support for 64-bit time_t on configurations like x86 where time_t
  is traditionally 32-bit.  Although time_t still defaults to 32-bit on
  these configurations, this default may change in future versions.
  This is enabled with the _TIME_BITS preprocessor macro set to 64 and is
  only supported when LFS (_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64) is also enabled.  It is
  only enabled for Linux and the full support requires a minimum kernel
  version of 5.1.

* The main gconv-modules file in glibc now contains only a small set of
  essential converter modules and the rest have been moved into a supplementary
  configuration file gconv-modules-extra.conf in the gconv-modules.d directory
  in the same GCONV_PATH.  Similarly, external converter modules directories
  may have supplementary configuration files in a gconv-modules.d directory
  with names ending with .conf to logically classify the converter modules in
  that directory.

* On Linux, a new tunable, glibc.pthread.stack_cache_size, can be used
  to configure the size of the thread stack cache.

* The function _Fork has been added as an async-signal-safe fork replacement
  since Austin Group issue 62 dropped the async-signal-safe requirement for
  fork (and it will be included in the future POSIX standard).  The new _Fork
  function does not run any atfork function neither resets any internal state
  or lock (such as the malloc one), and only sets up a minimal state required
  to call async-signal-safe functions (such as raise or execve).  This function
  is currently a GNU extension.

* On Linux, the close_range function has been added.  It allows efficiently
  closing a range of file descriptors on recent kernels (version 5.9).

* The function closefrom has been added.  It closes all file descriptors
  greater than or equal to a given integer.  This function is a GNU extension,
  although it is also present in other systems.

* The posix_spawn_file_actions_addclosefrom_np function has been added,
  enabling posix_spawn and posix_spawnp to close all file descriptors greater
  than or equal to a given integer.  This function is a GNU extension,
  although Solaris also provides a similar function.

* When invoked explicitly, the dynamic linker now uses the kernel to
  execute programs that do not have any dynamic dependency (that is,
  they are statically linked).  This feature is Linux-specific.

Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting compatibility:

* The function pthread_mutex_consistent_np has been deprecated; programs
  should use the equivalent standard function pthread_mutex_consistent
  instead.

* The function pthread_mutexattr_getrobust_np has been deprecated;
  programs should use the equivalent standard function
  pthread_mutexattr_getrobust instead.

* The function pthread_mutexattr_setrobust_np has been deprecated;
  programs should use the equivalent standard function
  pthread_mutexattr_setrobust instead.

* The function pthread_yield has been deprecated; programs should use
  the equivalent standard function sched_yield instead.

* The function inet_neta declared in <arpa/inet.h> has been deprecated.

* Various rarely-used functions declared in <resolv.h> and
  <arpa/nameser.h> have been deprecated.  Applications are encouraged to
  use dedicated DNS processing libraries if applicable.  For <resolv.h>,
  this affects the functions dn_count_labels, fp_nquery, fp_query,
  fp_resstat, hostalias, loc_aton, loc_ntoa, p_cdname, p_cdnname,
  p_class, p_fqname, p_fqnname, p_option, p_query, p_rcode, p_time,
  p_type, putlong, putshort, res_hostalias, res_isourserver,
  res_nameinquery, res_queriesmatch, res_randomid, sym_ntop, sym_ntos,
  sym_ston.  For <arpa/nameser.h>, the functions ns_datetosecs,
  ns_format_ttl, ns_makecanon, ns_parse_ttl, ns_samedomain, ns_samename,
  ns_sprintrr, ns_sprintrrf, ns_subdomain have been deprecated.

* Various symbols previously defined in libresolv have been moved to libc
  in order to prepare for libresolv moving entirely into libc (see earlier
  entry for merging libraries into libc).  The symbols __dn_comp,
  __dn_expand, __dn_skipname, __res_dnok, __res_hnok, __res_mailok,
  __res_mkquery, __res_nmkquery, __res_nquery, __res_nquerydomain,
  __res_nsearch, __res_nsend, __res_ownok, __res_query, __res_querydomain,
  __res_search, __res_send formerly in libresolv have been renamed and no
  longer have a __ prefix.  They are now available in libc.

* The pthread cancellation handler is now installed with SA_RESTART and
  pthread_cancel will always send the internal SIGCANCEL on a cancellation
  request.  It should not be visible to applications since the cancellation
  handler should either act upon cancellation (if asynchronous cancellation
  is enabled) or ignore the cancellation internal signal.  However there are
  buggy kernel interfaces (for instance some CIFS versions) that could still
  see a spurious EINTR error when cancellation interrupts a blocking syscall.

* Previously, glibc installed its various shared objects under versioned
  file names such as libc-2.33.so.  The ABI sonames (e.g., libc.so.6)
  were provided as symbolic links.  Starting with glibc 2.34, the shared
  objects are installed under their ABI sonames directly, without
  symbolic links.  This increases compatibility with distribution
  package managers that delete removed files late during the package
  upgrade or downgrade process.

* The symbols mallwatch and tr_break are now deprecated and no longer used in
  mtrace.  Similar functionality can be achieved by using conditional
  breakpoints within mtrace functions from within gdb.

* The __morecore and __after_morecore_hook malloc hooks and the default
  implementation __default_morecore have been removed from the API.  Existing
  applications will continue to link against these symbols but the interfaces
  no longer have any effect on malloc.

* Debugging features in malloc such as the MALLOC_CHECK_ environment variable
  (or the glibc.malloc.check tunable), mtrace() and mcheck() have now been
  disabled by default in the main C library.  Users looking to use these
  features now need to preload a new debugging DSO libc_malloc_debug.so to get
  this functionality back.

* The deprecated functions malloc_get_state and malloc_set_state have been
  moved from the core C library into libc_malloc_debug.so.  Legacy applications
  that still use these functions will now need to preload libc_malloc_debug.so
  in their environment using the LD_PRELOAD environment variable.

* The deprecated memory allocation hooks __malloc_hook, __realloc_hook,
  __memalign_hook and __free_hook are now removed from the API.  Compatibility
  symbols are present to support legacy programs but new applications can no
  longer link to these symbols.  These hooks no longer have any effect on glibc
  functionality.  The malloc debugging DSO libc_malloc_debug.so currently
  supports hooks and can be preloaded to get this functionality back for older
  programs.  However this is a transitional measure and may be removed in a
  future release of the GNU C Library.  Users may port away from these hooks by
  writing and preloading their own malloc interposition library.

Changes to build and runtime requirements:

* On Linux, the shm_open, sem_open, and related functions now expect the
  file shared memory file system to be mounted at /dev/shm.  These functions
  no longer search among the system's mount points for a suitable
  replacement if /dev/shm is not available.

Version 2.33

Major new features:

* The dynamic linker accepts the --list-tunables argument which prints
  all the supported tunables.  This option is disable if glibc is
  configured with tunables disabled (--enable-tunables=no).

* The dynamic linker accepts the --argv0 argument and provides opportunity
  to change argv[0] string.

* The dynamic linker loads optimized implementations of shared objects
  from subdirectories under the glibc-hwcaps directory on the library
  search path if the system's capabilities meet the requirements for
  that subdirectory.  Initially supported subdirectories include
  "power9" and "power10" for the powerpc64le-linux-gnu architecture,
  "z13", "z14", "z15" for s390x-linux-gnu, and "x86-64-v2", "x86-64-v3",
  "x86-64-v4" for x86_64-linux-gnu.  In the x86_64-linux-gnu case, the
  subdirectory names correspond to the vendor-independent x86-64
  microarchitecture levels defined in the x86-64 psABI supplement.

* The new --help option of the dynamic linker provides usage and
  information and library search path diagnostics.

* The mallinfo2 function is added to report statistics as per mallinfo,
  but with larger field widths to accurately report values that are
  larger than fit in an integer.

* Add <sys/platform/x86.h> to provide query macros for x86 CPU features.

* Support for the RISC-V ISA running on Linux has been expanded to run on
  32-bit hardware.  This is supported for the following ISA and ABI pairs:

    - rv32imac ilp32
    - rv32imafdc ilp32
    - rv32imafdc ilp32d

  The 32-bit RISC-V port requires at least Linux 5.4, GCC 7.1 and binutils
  2.28.

* A new fortification level _FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 is available.  At this level,
  glibc may use additional checks that may have an additional performance
  overhead.  At present these checks are available only on LLVM 9 and later.
  The latest GCC available at this time (10.2) does not support this level of
  fortification.

Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting compatibility:

* The mallinfo function is marked deprecated.  Callers should call
  mallinfo2 instead.

* When dlopen is used in statically linked programs, alternative library
  implementations from HWCAP subdirectories are no longer loaded.
  Instead, the default implementation is used.

* The deprecated <sys/vtimes.h> header and the function vtimes have been
  removed.  To support old binaries, the vtimes function continues to exist
  as a compatibility symbol.  Applications should use the getrlimit or
  prlimit.

* Following a change in the tzdata 2018a release upstream, the zdump
  program is now installed in the /usr/bin subdirectory.  Previously,
  the /usr/sbin subdirectory was used.

* On s390(x), the type float_t is now derived from the macro
  __FLT_EVAL_METHOD__ that is defined by the compiler, instead of being
  hardcoded to double.  This does not affect the ABI of any libraries
  that are part of the GNU C Library, but may affect the ABI of other
  libraries that use this type in their interfaces.  The new definition
  improves consistency with compiler behavior in many scenarios.

* A future version of glibc will stop loading shared objects from the
  "tls" subdirectories on the library search path, the subdirectory that
  corresponds to the AT_PLATFORM system name, and also stop employing
  the legacy AT_HWCAP search mechanism.  Applications should switch to
  the new glibc-hwcaps mechanism instead; if they do not do that, only
  the baseline version (directly from the search path directory) will be
  loaded.

Changes to build and runtime requirements:

* On Linux, the system administrator needs to configure /dev/pts with
  the intended access modes for pseudo-terminals.  glibc no longer
  attempts to adjust permissions of terminal devices.  The previous glibc
  defaults ("tty" group, user read/write and group write) already
  corresponded to what most systems used, so that grantpt did not
  perform any adjustments.

* On Linux, the posix_openpt and getpt functions no longer attempt to
  use legacy (BSD) pseudo-terminals and assume that if /dev/ptmx exists
  (and pseudo-terminals are supported), a devpts file system is mounted
  on /dev/pts.  Current systems already meet these requirements.

* s390x requires GCC 7.1 or newer.  See gcc Bug 98269.

Version 2.32

Major new features:

* Unicode 13.0.0 Support: Character encoding, character type info, and
  transliteration tables are all updated to Unicode 13.0.0, using
  generator scripts contributed by Mike FABIAN (Red Hat).

* New locale added: ckb_IQ (Kurdish/Sorani spoken in Iraq)

* Support for Synopsys ARC HS cores (ARCv2 ISA) running Linux has been
  added. This port requires at least binutils-2.32, gcc-8.3 and Linux-5.1.
  Three ABIs are supported:

     - arc-linux-gnu
     - arc-linux-gnuhf
     - arceb-linux-gnu

  The arc* ABIs are little-endian while arceb is big-endian.  All ABIs use
  64-bit time (y2038 safe) and 64-bit file offsets (LFS default).

* The GNU C Library now loads audit modules listed in the DT_AUDIT and
  DT_DEPAUDIT dynamic section entries of the main executable.

* powerpc64le supports IEEE128 long double libm/libc redirects when
  using -mabi=ieeelongdouble to compile C code on supported GCC
  toolchains.  It is recommended to use GCC 8 or newer when testing
  this option.

* To help detect buffer overflows and other out-of-bounds accesses
  several APIs have been annotated with GCC 'access' attribute.  This
  should help GCC 10 issue better warnings.

* On Linux, functions pthread_attr_setsigmask_np and
  pthread_attr_getsigmask_np have been added.  They allow applications
  to specify the signal mask of a thread created with pthread_create.

* The GNU C Library now provides the header file <sys/single_threaded.h>
  which declares the variable __libc_single_threaded.  Applications are
  encouraged to use this variable for single-thread optimizations,
  instead of weak references to symbols historically defined in
  libpthread.

* The functions sigabbrev_np and sigdescr_np have been added.  The
  sigabbrev_np function returns the abbreviated signal name (e.g. "HUP" for
  SIGHUP) while sigdescr_np returns a string describing the signal number
  (e.g "Hangup" for SIGHUP).  Different than strsignal, sigdescr_np does not
  attempt to translate the return description, both functions return
  NULL for an invalid signal number.

  They should be used instead of sys_siglist or sys_sigabbrev and they
  are both thread and async-signal safe.  These functions are GNU extensions.

* The functions strerrorname_np and strerrordesc_np have been added.  The
  strerroname_np function returns error number name (e.g. "EINVAL" for EINVAL)
  while strerrordesc_np returns a string describing the error number
  (e.g "Invalid argument" for EINVAL).  Different than strerror,
  strerrordesc_np does not attempt to translate the return description, both
  functions return NULL for an invalid error number.

  They should be used instead of sys_errlist and sys_nerr, both are
  thread and async-signal safe.  These functions are GNU extensions.

* AArch64 now supports standard branch protection security hardening
  in glibc when it is built with a GCC that is configured with
  --enable-standard-branch-protection (or if -mbranch-protection=standard
  flag is passed when building both GCC target libraries and glibc,
  in either case a custom GCC is needed).  This includes branch target
  identification (BTI) and pointer authentication for return addresses
  (PAC-RET).  They require armv8.5-a and armv8.3-a architecture
  extensions respectively for the protection to be effective,
  otherwise the used instructions are nops.  User code can use PAC-RET
  without libc support, but BTI requires a libc that is built with BTI
  support, otherwise runtime objects linked into user code will not be
  BTI compatible.

Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting compatibility:

* Remove configure option --enable-obsolete-rpc.  Sun RPC is removed
  from glibc.  This includes the rpcgen program, librpcsvc, and the Sun
  RPC header files.  Backward compatibility for old programs is kept
  only for architectures and ABIs that have been added in or before
  glibc 2.31.  New programs need to use TI-RPC
  <http://git.linux-nfs.org/?p=steved/libtirpc.git;a=summary> and
  rpcsvc-proto <https://github.com/thkukuk/rpcsvc-proto>.

* Remove configure option --enable-obsolete-nsl.  libnsl is only built
  as shared library for backward compatibility and the NSS modules "nis"
  and "nisplus" are not built at all and libnsl's headers aren't
  installed.  This compatibility is kept only for architectures and ABIs
  that have been added in or before version 2.28.  Replacement
  implementations based on TI-RPC, which additionally support IPv6, are
  available from <https://github.com/thkukuk/>.  This change does not
  affect the "compat" NSS module, which does not depend on libnsl
  since 2.27 and thus can be used without NIS.

* The deprecated <sys/sysctl.h> header and the sysctl function have been
  removed.  To support old binaries, the sysctl function continues to
  exist as a compatibility symbol (on those architectures which had it),
  but always fails with ENOSYS.  This reflects the removal of the system
  call from all architectures, starting with Linux 5.5.

* The sstk function is no longer available to newly linked binaries.
  Its implementation always returned with a failure, and the function
  was not declared in any header file.

* The legacy signal handling functions siginterrupt, sigpause, sighold,
  sigrelse, sigignore and sigset, and the sigmask macro have been
  deprecated.  Applications should use the sigsuspend, sigprocmask and
  sigaction functions instead.

* ldconfig now defaults to the new format for ld.so.cache. glibc has
  already supported this format for almost 20 years.

* The deprecated arrays sys_siglist, _sys_siglist, and sys_sigabbrev
  are no longer available to newly linked binaries, and their declarations
  have been removed from <string.h>.  They are exported solely as
  compatibility symbols to support old binaries.  All programs should use
  strsignal instead.

* The deprecated symbols sys_errlist, _sys_errlist, sys_nerr, and _sys_nerr
  are no longer available to newly linked binaries, and their declarations
  have been removed from <stdio.h>.  They are exported solely as
  compatibility symbols to support old binaries.  All programs should use
  strerror or strerror_r instead.

* Both strerror and strerror_l now share the same internal buffer in the
  calling thread, meaning that the returned string pointer may be invalided
  or contents might be overwritten on subsequent calls in the same thread or
  if the thread is terminated.  It makes strerror MT-safe.

* Using weak references to libpthread functions such as pthread_create
  or pthread_key_create to detect the singled-threaded nature of a
  program is an obsolescent feature.  Future versions of glibc will
  define pthread_create within libc.so.6 itself, so such checks will
  always flag the program as multi-threaded.  Applications should check
  the __libc_single_threaded variable declared in
  <sys/single_threaded.h> instead.

* The "files" NSS module no longer supports the "key" database (used for
  secure RPC).  The contents of the /etc/publickey file will be ignored,
  regardless of the settings in /etc/nsswitch.conf.  (This method of
  storing RPC keys only supported the obsolete and insecure AUTH_DES
  flavor of secure RPC.)

* The __morecore and __after_morecore_hook malloc hooks and the default
  implementation __default_morecore have been deprecated.  Applications
  should use malloc interposition to change malloc behavior, and mmap to
  allocate anonymous memory.  A future version of glibc may require that
  applications which use the malloc hooks must preload a special shared
  object, to enable the hooks.

* The hesiod NSS module has been deprecated and will be removed in a
  future version of glibc.  System administrators are encouraged to
  switch to other approaches for networked account databases, such as
  LDAP.

Changes to build and runtime requirements:

* powerpc64le requires GCC 7.4 or newer.  This is required for supporting
  long double redirects.

Version 2.31

Major new features:

* The GNU C Library now supports a feature test macro _ISOC2X_SOURCE to
  enable features from the draft ISO C2X standard.  Only some features from
  this draft standard are supported by the GNU C Library, and as the draft
  is under active development, the set of features enabled by this macro is
  liable to change.  Features from C2X are also enabled by _GNU_SOURCE, or
  by compiling with "gcc -std=gnu2x".

* The <math.h> functions that round their results to a narrower type now
  have corresponding type-generic macros in <tgmath.h>, as defined in TS
  18661-1:2014 and TS 18661-3:2015 as amended by the resolution of
  Clarification Request 13 to TS 18661-3.

* The function pthread_clockjoin_np has been added, enabling join with a
  terminated thread with a specific clock.  It allows waiting against
  CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_REALTIME.  This function is a GNU extension.

* New locale added: mnw_MM (Mon language spoken in Myanmar).

* The DNS stub resolver will optionally send the AD (authenticated data) bit
  in queries if the trust-ad option is set via the options directive in
  /etc/resolv.conf (or if RES_TRUSTAD is set in _res.options).  In this
  mode, the AD bit, as provided by the name server, is available to
  applications which call res_search and related functions.  In the default
  mode, the AD bit is not set in queries, and it is automatically cleared in
  responses, indicating a lack of DNSSEC validation.  (Therefore, the name
  servers and the network path to them are treated as untrusted.)

Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting compatibility:

* The totalorder and totalordermag functions, and the corresponding
  functions for other floating-point types, now take pointer arguments to
  avoid signaling NaNs possibly being converted to quiet NaNs in argument
  passing.  This is in accordance with the resolution of Clarification
  Request 25 to TS 18661-1, as applied for C2X.  Existing binaries that pass
  floating-point arguments directly will continue to work.

* The obsolete function stime is no longer available to newly linked
  binaries, and its declaration has been removed from <time.h>.
  Programs that set the system time should use clock_settime instead.

* We plan to remove the obsolete function ftime, and the header <sys/timeb.h>,
  in a future version of glibc.  In this release, the header still exists
  but calling ftime will cause a compiler warning.  All programs should use
  gettimeofday or clock_gettime instead.

* The gettimeofday function no longer reports information about a
  system-wide time zone.  This 4.2-BSD-era feature has been deprecated for
  many years, as it cannot handle the full complexity of the world's
  timezones, but hitherto we have supported it on a best-effort basis.
  Changes required to support 64-bit time_t on 32-bit architectures have
  made this no longer practical.

  As of this release, callers of gettimeofday with a non-null 'tzp' argument
  should expect to receive a 'struct timezone' whose tz_minuteswest and
  tz_dsttime fields are zero.  (For efficiency reasons, this does not always
  happen on a few Linux-based ports.  This will be corrected in a future
  release.)

  All callers should supply a null pointer for the 'tzp' argument to
  gettimeofday.  For accurate information about the time zone associated
  with the current time, use the localtime function.

  gettimeofday itself is obsolescent according to POSIX.  We have no plans
  to remove access to this function, but portable programs should consider
  using clock_gettime instead.

* The settimeofday function can still be used to set a system-wide time
  zone when the operating system supports it.  This is because the Linux
  kernel reused the API, on some architectures, to describe a system-wide
  time-zone-like offset between the software clock maintained by the kernel,
  and the "RTC" clock that keeps time when the system is shut down.

  However, to reduce the odds of this offset being set by accident,
  settimeofday can no longer be used to set the time and the offset
  simultaneously.  If both of its two arguments are non-null, the call
  will fail (setting errno to EINVAL).

  Callers attempting to set this offset should also be prepared for the call
  to fail and set errno to ENOSYS; this already happens on the Hurd and on
  some Linux architectures.  The Linux kernel maintainers are discussing a
  more principled replacement for the reused API.  After a replacement
  becomes available, we will change settimeofday to fail with ENOSYS on all
  platforms when its 'tzp' argument is not a null pointer.

  settimeofday itself is obsolescent according to POSIX.  Programs that set
  the system time should use clock_settime and/or the adjtime family of
  functions instead.  We may cease to make settimeofday available to newly
  linked binaries after there is a replacement for Linux's time-zone-like
  offset API.

* SPARC ISA v7 is no longer supported.  v8 is still supported, but only if
  the optional CAS instruction is implemented (for instance, LEON processors
  are still supported, but SuperSPARC processors are not).

  As the oldest 64-bit SPARC ISA is v9, this only affects 32-bit
  configurations.

* If a lazy binding failure happens during dlopen, during the execution of
  an ELF constructor, the process is now terminated.  Previously, the
  dynamic loader would return NULL from dlopen, with the lazy binding error
  captured in a dlerror message.  In general, this is unsafe because
  resetting the stack in an arbitrary function call is not possible.

* For MIPS hard-float ABIs, the GNU C Library will be configured to need an
  executable stack unless explicitly configured at build time to require
  minimum kernel version 4.8 or newer.  This is because executing
  floating-point branches on a non-executable stack on Linux kernels prior to
  4.8 can lead to application crashes for some MIPS configurations. While
  currently PT_GNU_STACK is not widely used on MIPS, future releases of GCC are
  expected to enable non-executable stack by default  with PT_GNU_STACK by
  default and is thus likely to trigger a crash on older kernels.

  The GNU C Library can be built with --enable-kernel=4.8.0 in order to keep a
  non-executable stack while dropping support for older kernels.

* System call wrappers for time system calls now use the new time64 system
  calls when available. On 32-bit targets, these wrappers attempt to call
  the new system calls first and fall back to the older 32-bit time system
  calls if they are not present.  This may cause issues in environments
  that cannot handle unsupported system calls gracefully by returning
  -ENOSYS. Seccomp sandboxes are affected by this issue.

Changes to build and runtime requirements:

* It is no longer necessary to have recent Linux kernel headers to build
  working (non-stub) system call wrappers on all architectures except 64-bit
  RISC-V.  64-bit RISC-V requires a minimum kernel headers version of 5.0.

* The ChangeLog file is no longer present in the toplevel directory of the
  source tree.  ChangeLog files are located in the ChangeLog.old directory as
  ChangeLog.N where the highest N has the latest entries.

Security related changes:

  CVE-2020-1751: A defect in the PowerPC backtrace function could cause an
  out-of-bounds write when executed in a signal frame context.

  CVE-2019-19126: ld.so failed to ignore the LD_PREFER_MAP_32BIT_EXEC
  environment variable during program execution after a security
  transition, allowing local attackers to restrict the possible mapping
  addresses for loaded libraries and thus bypass ASLR for a setuid
  program.  Reported by Marcin Kościelnicki.

Version 2.30

Major new features:

* Unicode 12.1.0 Support: Character encoding, character type info, and
  transliteration tables are all updated to Unicode 12.1.0, using
  generator scripts contributed by Mike FABIAN (Red Hat).

* The dynamic linker accepts the --preload argument to preload shared
  objects, in addition to the LD_PRELOAD environment variable.

* The twalk_r function has been added.  It is similar to the existing
  twalk function, but it passes an additional caller-supplied argument
  to the callback function.

* On Linux, the getdents64, gettid, and tgkill functions have been added.

* Minguo (Republic of China) calendar support has been added as an
  alternative calendar for the following locales: zh_TW, cmn_TW, hak_TW,
  nan_TW, lzh_TW.

* The entry for the new Japanese era has been added for ja_JP locale.

* Memory allocation functions malloc, calloc, realloc, reallocarray, valloc,
  pvalloc, memalign, and posix_memalign fail now with total object size
  larger than PTRDIFF_MAX.  This is to avoid potential undefined behavior with
  pointer subtraction within the allocated object, where results might
  overflow the ptrdiff_t type.

* The dynamic linker no longer refuses to load objects which reference
  versioned symbols whose implementation has moved to a different soname
  since the object has been linked.  The old error message, symbol
  FUNCTION-NAME, version SYMBOL-VERSION not defined in file DSO-NAME with
  link time reference, is gone.

* Add new POSIX-proposed pthread_cond_clockwait, pthread_mutex_clocklock,
  pthread_rwlock_clockrdlock, pthread_rwlock_clockwrlock and sem_clockwait
  functions.  These behave similarly to their "timed" equivalents, but also
  accept a clockid_t parameter to determine which clock their timeout should
  be measured against.  All functions allow waiting against CLOCK_MONOTONIC
  and CLOCK_REALTIME.  The decision of which clock to be used is made at the
  time of the wait (unlike with pthread_condattr_setclock, which requires
  the clock choice at initialization time).

* On AArch64 the GNU IFUNC resolver call ABI changed: old resolvers still
  work, new resolvers can use a second argument which can be extended in
  the future, currently it contains the AT_HWCAP2 value.

Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting compatibility:

* The copy_file_range function fails with ENOSYS if the kernel does not
  support the system call of the same name.  Previously, user space
  emulation was performed, but its behavior did not match the kernel
  behavior, which was deemed too confusing.  Applications which use the
  copy_file_range function can no longer rely on glibc to provide a fallback
  on kernels that do not support the copy_file_range system call, and if
  this function returns ENOSYS, they will need to use their own fallback.
  Support for copy_file_range for most architectures was added in version
  4.5 of the mainline Linux kernel.

* The functions clock_gettime, clock_getres, clock_settime,
  clock_getcpuclockid, clock_nanosleep were removed from the librt library
  for new applications (on architectures which had them).  Instead, the
  definitions in libc will be used automatically, which have been available
  since glibc 2.17.

* The obsolete and never-implemented XSI STREAMS header files <stropts.h>
  and <sys/stropts.h> have been removed.

* Support for the "inet6" option in /etc/resolv.conf and the RES_USE_INET6
  resolver flag (deprecated in glibc 2.25) have been removed.

* The obsolete RES_INSECURE1 and RES_INSECURE2 option flags for the DNS stub
  resolver have been removed from <resolv.h>.

* With --enable-bind-now, installed programs are now linked with the
  BIND_NOW flag.

* Support for the PowerPC SPE ISA extension (powerpc-*-*gnuspe*
  configurations) has been removed, following the deprecation of this
  subarchitecture in version 8 of GCC, and its removal in version 9.

* On 32-bit Arm, support for the port-based I/O emulation and the <sys/io.h>
  header have been removed.

* The Linux-specific <sys/sysctl.h> header and the sysctl function have been
  deprecated and will be removed from a future version of glibc.
  Application should directly access /proc instead.  For obtaining random
  bits, the getentropy function can be used.

Changes to build and runtime requirements:

* GCC 6.2 or later is required to build the GNU C Library.

  Older GCC versions and non-GNU compilers are still supported when
  compiling programs that use the GNU C Library.

Security related changes:

  CVE-2019-7309: x86-64 memcmp used signed Jcc instructions to check
  size.  For x86-64, memcmp on an object size larger than SSIZE_MAX
  has undefined behavior.  On x32, the size_t argument may be passed
  in the lower 32 bits of the 64-bit RDX register with non-zero upper
  32 bits.  When it happened with the sign bit of RDX register set,
  memcmp gave the wrong result since it treated the size argument as
  zero.  Reported by H.J. Lu.

  CVE-2019-9169: Attempted case-insensitive regular-expression match
  via proceed_next_node in posix/regexec.c leads to heap-based buffer
  over-read.  Reported by Hongxu Chen.

Version 2.29

Major new features:

* The getcpu wrapper function has been added, which returns the currently
  used CPU and NUMA node.  This function is Linux-specific.

* A new convenience target has been added for distribution maintainers
  to build and install all locales as directories with files.  The new
  target is run by issuing the following command in your build tree:
  'make localedata/install-locale-files', with an optional DESTDIR
  to set the install root if you wish to install into a non-default
  configured location.

* Optimized generic exp, exp2, log, log2, pow, sinf, cosf, sincosf and tanf.

* The reallocarray function is now declared under _DEFAULT_SOURCE, not just
  for _GNU_SOURCE, to match BSD environments.

* For powercp64le ABI, Transactional Lock Elision is now enabled iff kernel
  indicates that it will abort the transaction prior to entering the kernel
  (PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_NOSC on hwcap2).  On older kernels the transaction is
  suspended, and this caused some undefined side-effects issues by aborting
  transactions manually.  Glibc avoided it by abort transactions manually on
  each syscall, but it lead to performance issues on newer kernels where the
  HTM state is saved and restore lazily (the state being saved even when the
  process actually does not use HTM).

* The functions posix_spawn_file_actions_addchdir_np and
  posix_spawn_file_actions_addfchdir_np have been added, enabling
  posix_spawn and posix_spawnp to run the new process in a different
  directory.  These functions are GNU extensions.  The function
  posix_spawn_file_actions_addchdir_np is similar to the Solaris function
  of the same name.

* The popen and system do not run atfork handlers anymore (BZ#17490).
  Although it is a possible POSIX violation, the POSIX rationale in
  pthread_atfork documentation regarding atfork handlers is to handle
  inconsistent mutex state after a fork call in a multi-threaded process.
  In both popen and system there is no direct access to user-defined mutexes.

* Support for the C-SKY ABIV2 running on Linux has been added.  This port
  requires at least binutils-2.32, gcc-9.0, and linux-4.20.  Two ABIs are
  supported:
    - C-SKY ABIV2 soft-float little-endian
    - C-SKY ABIV2 hard-float little-endian

* strftime's default formatting of a locale's alternative year (%Ey)
  has been changed to zero-pad the year to a minimum of two digits,
  like "%y".  This improves the display of Japanese era years during
  the first nine years of a new era, and is expected to be harmless
  for all other locales (only Japanese locales regularly have
  alternative year numbers less than 10).  Zero-padding can be
  overridden with the '_' or '-' flags (which are GNU extensions).

* As a GNU extension, the '_' and '-' flags can now be applied to
  "%EY" to control how the year number is formatted; they have the
  same effect that they would on "%Ey".

Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting compatibility:

* The glibc.tune tunable namespace has been renamed to glibc.cpu and the
  tunable glibc.tune.cpu has been renamed to glibc.cpu.name.

* The type of the pr_uid and pr_gid members of struct elf_prpsinfo, defined
  in <sys/procfs.h>, has been corrected to match the type actually used by
  the Linux kernel.  This affects the size and layout of that structure on
  MicroBlaze, MIPS (n64 ABI only), Nios II and RISC-V.

* For the MIPS n32 ABI, the type of the pr_sigpend and pr_sighold members of
  struct elf_prstatus, and the pr_flag member of struct elf_prpsinfo,
  defined in <sys/procfs.h>, has been corrected to match the type actually
  used by the Linux kernel.  This affects the size and layout of those
  structures.

* An archaic GNU extension to scanf, under which '%as', '%aS', and '%a[...]'
  meant to scan a string and allocate space for it with malloc, is now
  restricted to programs compiled in C89 or C++98 mode with _GNU_SOURCE
  defined.  This extension conflicts with C99's use of '%a' to scan a
  hexadecimal floating-point number, which is now available to programs
  compiled as C99 or C++11 or higher, regardless of _GNU_SOURCE.

  POSIX.1-2008 includes the feature of allocating a buffer for string input
  with malloc, using the modifier letter 'm' instead.  Programs using
  '%as', '%aS', or '%a[...]' with the old GNU meaning should change to
  '%ms', '%mS', or '%m[...]' respectively.  Programs that wish to use the
  C99 '%a' no longer need to avoid _GNU_SOURCE.

  GCC's -Wformat warnings can detect most uses of this extension, as long
  as all functions that call vscanf, vfscanf, or vsscanf are annotated with
  __attribute__ ((format (scanf, ...))).

Changes to build and runtime requirements:

* Python 3.4 or later is required to build the GNU C Library.

* On most architectures, GCC 5 or later is required to build the GNU C
  Library.  (On powerpc64le, GCC 6.2 or later is still required, as before.)

  Older GCC versions and non-GNU compilers are still supported when
  compiling programs that use the GNU C Library.

Security related changes:

  CVE-2018-19591: A file descriptor leak in if_nametoindex can lead to a
  denial of service due to resource exhaustion when processing getaddrinfo
  calls with crafted host names.  Reported by Guido Vranken.

  CVE-2019-6488: On x32, the size_t parameter may be passed in the lower
  32 bits of a 64-bit register with with non-zero upper 32 bit.  When it
  happened, accessing the 32-bit size_t value as the full 64-bit register
  in the assembly string/memory functions would cause a buffer overflow.
  Reported by H.J. Lu.

  CVE-2016-10739: The getaddrinfo function could successfully parse IPv4
  addresses with arbitrary trailing characters, potentially leading to data
  or command injection issues in applications.

Version 2.28

Major new features:

* The localization data for ISO 14651 is updated to match the 2016
  Edition 4 release of the standard, this matches data provided by
  Unicode 9.0.0.  This update introduces significant improvements to the
  collation of Unicode characters.  This release deviates slightly from
  the standard in that the collation element ordering for lowercase and
  uppercase LATIN script characters is adjusted to ensure that regular
  expressions with ranges like [a-z] and [A-Z] don't interleave e.g. A
  is not matched by [a-z].  With the update many locales have been
  updated to take advantage of the new collation information.  The new
  collation information has increased the size of the compiled locale
  archive or binary locales.

* The GNU C Library can now be compiled with support for Intel CET, AKA
  Intel Control-flow Enforcement Technology.  When the library is built
  with --enable-cet, the resulting glibc is protected with indirect
  branch tracking (IBT) and shadow stack (SHSTK).  CET-enabled glibc is
  compatible with all existing executables and shared libraries.  This
  feature is currently supported on i386, x86_64 and x32 with GCC 8 and
  binutils 2.29 or later.  Note that CET-enabled glibc requires CPUs
  capable of multi-byte NOPs, like x86-64 processors as well as Intel
  Pentium Pro or newer.  NOTE: --enable-cet has been tested for i686,
  x86_64 and x32 on non-CET processors.  --enable-cet has been tested
  for x86_64 and x32 on CET SDVs, but Intel CET support hasn't been
  validated for i686.

* The GNU C Library now has correct support for ABSOLUTE symbols
  (SHN_ABS-relative symbols).  Previously such ABSOLUTE symbols were
  relocated incorrectly or in some cases discarded.  The GNU linker can
  make use of the newer semantics, but it must communicate it to the
  dynamic loader by setting the ELF file's identification (EI_ABIVERSION
  field) to indicate such support is required.

* Unicode 11.0.0 Support: Character encoding, character type info, and
  transliteration tables are all updated to Unicode 11.0.0, using
  generator scripts contributed by Mike FABIAN (Red Hat).

* <math.h> functions that round their results to a narrower type are added
  from TS 18661-1:2014 and TS 18661-3:2015:

  - fadd, faddl, daddl and corresponding fMaddfN, fMaddfNx, fMxaddfN and
    fMxaddfNx functions.

  - fsub, fsubl, dsubl and corresponding fMsubfN, fMsubfNx, fMxsubfN and
    fMxsubfNx functions.

  - fmul, fmull, dmull and corresponding fMmulfN, fMmulfNx, fMxmulfN and
    fMxmulfNx functions.

  - fdiv, fdivl, ddivl and corresponding fMdivfN, fMdivfNx, fMxdivfN and
    fMxdivfNx functions.

* Two grammatical forms of month names are now supported for the following
  languages: Armenian, Asturian, Catalan, Czech, Kashubian, Occitan, Ossetian,
  Scottish Gaelic, Upper Sorbian, and Walloon.  The following languages now
  support two grammatical forms in abbreviated month names: Catalan, Greek,
  and Kashubian.

* Newly added locales: Lower Sorbian (dsb_DE) and Yakut (sah_RU) also
  include the support for two grammatical forms of month names.

* Building and running on GNU/Hurd systems now works without out-of-tree
  patches.

* The renameat2 function has been added, a variant of the renameat function
  which has a flags argument.  If the flags are zero, the renameat2 function
  acts like renameat.  If the flag is not zero and there is no kernel
  support for renameat2, the function will fail with an errno value of
  EINVAL.  This is different from the existing gnulib function renameatu,
  which performs a plain rename operation in case of a RENAME_NOREPLACE
  flags and a non-existing destination (and therefore has a race condition
  that can clobber the destination inadvertently).

* The statx function has been added, a variant of the fstatat64
  function with an additional flags argument.  If there is no direct
  kernel support for statx, glibc provides basic stat support based on
  the fstatat64 function.

* IDN domain names in getaddrinfo and getnameinfo now use the system libidn2
  library if installed.  libidn2 version 2.0.5 or later is recommended.  If
  libidn2 is not available, internationalized domain names are not encoded
  or decoded even if the AI_IDN or NI_IDN flags are passed to getaddrinfo or
  getnameinfo.  (getaddrinfo calls with non-ASCII names and AI_IDN will fail
  with an encoding error.)  Flags which used to change the IDN encoding and
  decoding behavior (AI_IDN_ALLOW_UNASSIGNED, AI_IDN_USE_STD3_ASCII_RULES,
  NI_IDN_ALLOW_UNASSIGNED, NI_IDN_USE_STD3_ASCII_RULES) have been
  deprecated.  They no longer have any effect.

* Parsing of dynamic string tokens in DT_RPATH, DT_RUNPATH, DT_NEEDED,
  DT_AUXILIARY, and DT_FILTER has been expanded to support the full
  range of ELF gABI expressions including such constructs as
  '$ORIGIN$ORIGIN' (if valid).  For SUID/GUID applications the rules
  have been further restricted, and where in the past a dynamic string
  token sequence may have been interpreted as a literal string it will
  now cause a load failure.  These load failures were always considered
  unspecified behaviour from the perspective of the dynamic loader, and
  for safety are now load errors e.g. /foo/${ORIGIN}.so in DT_NEEDED
  results in a load failure now.

* Support for ISO C threads (ISO/IEC 9899:2011) has been added.  The
  implementation includes all the standard functions provided by
  <threads.h>:

  - thrd_current, thrd_equal, thrd_sleep, thrd_yield, thrd_create,
    thrd_detach, thrd_exit, and thrd_join for thread management.

  - mtx_init, mtx_lock, mtx_timedlock, mtx_trylock, mtx_unlock, and
    mtx_destroy for mutual exclusion.

  - call_once for function call synchronization.

  - cnd_broadcast, cnd_destroy, cnd_init, cnd_signal, cnd_timedwait, and
    cnd_wait for conditional variables.

  - tss_create, tss_delete, tss_get, and tss_set for thread-local storage.

  Application developers must link against libpthread to use ISO C threads.

Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting compatibility:

* The nonstandard header files <libio.h> and <_G_config.h> are no longer
  installed.  Software that was using either header should be updated to
  use standard <stdio.h> interfaces instead.

* The stdio functions 'getc' and 'putc' are no longer defined as macros.
  This was never required by the C standard, and the macros just expanded
  to call alternative names for the same functions.  If you hoped getc and
  putc would provide performance improvements over fgetc and fputc, instead
  investigate using (f)getc_unlocked and (f)putc_unlocked, and, if
  necessary, flockfile and funlockfile.

* All stdio functions now treat end-of-file as a sticky condition.  If you
  read from a file until EOF, and then the file is enlarged by another
  process, you must call clearerr or another function with the same effect
  (e.g. fseek, rewind) before you can read the additional data.  This
  corrects a longstanding C99 conformance bug.  It is most likely to affect
  programs that use stdio to read interactive input from a terminal.
  (Bug #1190.)

* The macros 'major', 'minor', and 'makedev' are now only available from
  the header <sys/sysmacros.h>; not from <sys/types.h> or various other
  headers that happen to include <sys/types.h>.  These macros are rarely
  used, not part of POSIX nor XSI, and their names frequently collide with
  user code; see https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19239 for
  further explanation.

  <sys/sysmacros.h> is a GNU extension.  Portable programs that require
  these macros should first include <sys/types.h>, and then include
  <sys/sysmacros.h> if __GNU_LIBRARY__ is defined.

* The tilegx*-*-linux-gnu configurations are no longer supported.

* The obsolete function ustat is no longer available to newly linked
  binaries; the headers <ustat.h> and <sys/ustat.h> have been removed.  This
  function has been deprecated in favor of fstatfs and statfs.

* The obsolete function nfsservctl is no longer available to newly linked
  binaries.  This function was specific to systems using the Linux kernel
  and could not usefully be used with the GNU C Library on systems with
  version 3.1 or later of the Linux kernel.

* The obsolete function name llseek is no longer available to newly linked
  binaries.  This function was specific to systems using the Linux kernel
  and was not declared in a header.  Programs should use the lseek64 name
  for this function instead.

* The AI_IDN_ALLOW_UNASSIGNED and NI_IDN_ALLOW_UNASSIGNED flags for the
  getaddrinfo and getnameinfo functions have been deprecated.  The behavior
  previously selected by them is now always enabled.

* The AI_IDN_USE_STD3_ASCII_RULES and NI_IDN_USE_STD3_ASCII_RULES flags for
  the getaddrinfo and getnameinfo functions have been deprecated.  The STD3
  restriction (rejecting '_' in host names, among other things) has been
  removed, for increased compatibility with non-IDN name resolution.

* The fcntl function now have a Long File Support variant named fcntl64.  It
  is added to fix some Linux Open File Description (OFD) locks usage on non
  LFS mode.  As for others *64 functions, fcntl64 semantics are analogous with
  fcntl and LFS support is handled transparently.  Also for Linux, the OFD
  locks act as a cancellation entrypoint.

* The obsolete functions encrypt, encrypt_r, setkey, setkey_r, cbc_crypt,
  ecb_crypt, and des_setparity are no longer available to newly linked
  binaries, and the headers <rpc/des_crypt.h> and <rpc/rpc_des.h> are no
  longer installed.  These functions encrypted and decrypted data with the
  DES block cipher, which is no longer considered secure.  Software that
  still uses these functions should switch to a modern cryptography library,
  such as libgcrypt.

* Reflecting the removal of the encrypt and setkey functions above, the
  macro _XOPEN_CRYPT is no longer defined.  As a consequence, the crypt
  function is no longer declared unless _DEFAULT_SOURCE or _GNU_SOURCE is
  enabled.

* The obsolete function fcrypt is no longer available to newly linked
  binaries.  It was just another name for the standard function crypt,
  and it has not appeared in any header file in many years.

* We have tentative plans to hand off maintenance of the passphrase-hashing
  library, libcrypt, to a separate development project that will, we hope,
  keep up better with new passphrase-hashing algorithms.  We will continue
  to declare 'crypt' in <unistd.h>, and programs that use 'crypt' or
  'crypt_r' should not need to change at all; however, distributions will
  need to install <crypt.h> and libcrypt from a separate project.

  In this release, if the configure option --disable-crypt is used, glibc
  will not install <crypt.h> or libcrypt, making room for the separate
  project's versions of these files.  The plan is to make this the default
  behavior in a future release.

Changes to build and runtime requirements:

  GNU make 4.0 or later is now required to build glibc.

Version 2.27

Major new features:

* The GNU C Library can now be compiled with support for building static
  PIE executables (See --enable-static-pie in INSTALL).  These static PIE
  executables are like static executables but can be loaded at any address
  and provide additional security hardening benefits at the cost of some
  memory and performance.  When the library is built with --enable-static-pie
  the resulting libc.a is usable with GCC 8 and above to create static PIE
  executables using the GCC option '-static-pie'.  This feature is currently
  supported on i386, x86_64 and x32 with binutils 2.29 or later, and on
  aarch64 with binutils 2.30 or later.

* Optimized x86-64 asin, atan2, exp, expf, log, pow, atan, sin, cosf,
  sinf, sincosf and tan with FMA, contributed by Arjan van de Ven and
  H.J. Lu from Intel.

* Optimized x86-64 trunc and truncf for processors with SSE4.1.

* Optimized generic expf, exp2f, logf, log2f, powf, sinf, cosf and sincosf.

* In order to support faster and safer process termination the malloc API
  family of functions will no longer print a failure address and stack
  backtrace after detecting heap corruption.  The goal is to minimize the
  amount of work done after corruption is detected and to avoid potential
  security issues in continued process execution.  Reducing shutdown time
  leads to lower overall process restart latency, so there is benefit both
  from a security and performance perspective.

* The abort function terminates the process immediately, without flushing
  stdio streams.  Previous glibc versions used to flush streams, resulting
  in deadlocks and further data corruption.  This change also affects
  process aborts as the result of assertion failures.

* On platforms where long double has the IEEE binary128 format (aarch64,
  alpha, mips64, riscv, s390 and sparc), the math library now implements
  _Float128 interfaces for that type, as defined by ISO/IEC TS 18661-3:2015.
  These are the same interfaces added in version 2.26 for some platforms where
  this format is supported but is not the format of long double.

* On platforms with support for _Float64x (aarch64, alpha, i386, ia64,
  mips64, powerpc64le, riscv, s390, sparc and x86_64), the math library now
  implements interfaces for that type, as defined by ISO/IEC TS
  18661-3:2015.  These are corresponding interfaces to those supported for
  _Float128.

* The math library now implements interfaces for the _Float32, _Float64 and
  _Float32x types, as defined by ISO/IEC TS 18661-3:2015.  These are
  corresponding interfaces to those supported for _Float128.

* glibc now implements the memfd_create and mlock2 functions on Linux.

* Support for memory protection keys was added.  The <sys/mman.h> header now
  declares the functions pkey_alloc, pkey_free, pkey_mprotect, pkey_set,
  pkey_get.

* The copy_file_range function was added.

* Optimized memcpy, mempcpy, memmove, and memset for sparc M7.

* The ldconfig utility now processes `include' directives using the C/POSIX
  collation ordering.  Previous glibc versions used locale-specific
  ordering, the change might break systems that relied on that.

* Support for two grammatical forms of month names has been added.
  In a call to strftime, the "%B" and "%b" format specifiers will now
  produce the grammatical form required when the month is used as part
  of a complete date.  New "%OB" and "%Ob" specifiers produce the form
  required when the month is named by itself.  For instance, in Greek
  and in many Slavic and Baltic languages, "%B" will produce the month
  in genitive case, and "%OB" will produce the month in nominative case.

  In a call to strptime, "%B", "%b", "%h", "%OB", "%Ob", and "%Oh"
  are all valid and will all accept any known form of month
  name---standalone or complete, abbreviated or full.  In a call to
  nl_langinfo, the query constants MON_1..12 and ABMON_1..12 return
  the strings used by "%B" and "%b", respectively.  New query
  constants ALTMON_1..12 and _NL_ABALTMON_1..12 return the strings
  used by "%OB" and "%Ob", respectively.

  In a locale definition file, use "alt_mon" and "ab_alt_mon" to
  define the strings for %OB and %Ob, respectively; these have the
  same syntax as "mon" and "abmon".  These arrays are optional; if they
  are not provided then they have the same content as "mon" and "abmon",
  respectively.

  These features are provided for locales which define "alt_mon" and/or
  "ab_alt_mon" in their locale source data.  This release includes such
  alternative month name data for the following languages: Belarusian,
  Croatian, Greek, Lithuanian, Polish, Russian, and Ukrainian.

  This feature is currently a GNU extension, but it is expected to
  be added to the next revision of POSIX, and it is also already
  available on some BSD-derived operating systems.

  This feature will cause existing statically compiled applications
  to fail to load locales and fall back to the builtin C/POSIX locales.
  See notes below for other changes affecting compatibility.

* Support for the RISC-V ISA running on Linux has been added.  This port
  requires at least binutils-2.30, gcc-7.3.0, and linux-4.15; and is supported
  for the following ISA and ABI pairs:

    - rv64imac lp64
    - rv64imafdc lp64
    - rv64imafdc lp64d

Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting compatibility:

* Statically compiled applications attempting to load locales compiled for the
  GNU C Library version 2.27 will fail and fall back to the builtin C/POSIX
  locale.  The reason for this is that the addition of the new "%OB" and "%Ob",
  support for two grammatical forms of the month names, also extends the locale
  data binary format.  Static applications needing locale support must be
  recompiled to match the runtime and data they are deployed with. In some
  distributions there is an upgrade window where dynamically linked applications
  may use a new library but the old locale data and also fall back to the
  builtin C/POSIX locales; restarting the application process is sufficient to
  fix this.

* Support for statically linked applications which call dlopen is deprecated
  and will be removed in a future version of glibc.  Applications which call
  dlopen need to be linked dynamically instead.

* Support for old programs which use internal stdio data structures and
  functions is deprecated.  This includes programs which use the C++ streams
  provided by libstdc++ in GCC 2.95.  Programs which use the internal
  symbols _IO_adjust_wcolumn, _IO_default_doallocate, _IO_default_finish,
  _IO_default_pbackfail, _IO_default_uflow, _IO_default_xsgetn,
  _IO_default_xsputn, _IO_doallocbuf, _IO_do_write, _IO_file_attach,
  _IO_file_close, _IO_file_close_it, _IO_file_doallocate, _IO_file_fopen,
  _IO_file_init, _IO_file_jumps, _IO_fileno, _IO_file_open,
  _IO_file_overflow, _IO_file_read, _IO_file_seek, _IO_file_seekoff,
  _IO_file_setbuf, _IO_file_stat, _IO_file_sync, _IO_file_underflow,
  _IO_file_write, _IO_file_xsputn, _IO_flockfile, _IO_flush_all,
  _IO_flush_all_linebuffered, _IO_free_backup_area, _IO_free_wbackup_area,

  _IO_marker_delta, _IO_marker_difference, _IO_remove_marker, _IO_seekmark,
  _IO_seekwmark, _IO_str_init_readonly, _IO_str_init_static,
  _IO_str_overflow, _IO_str_pbackfail, _IO_str_seekoff, _IO_str_underflow,
  _IO_switch_to_main_wget_area, _IO_switch_to_wget_mode,
  _IO_unsave_wmarkers, _IO_wdefault_doallocate, _IO_wdefault_finish,
  _IO_wdefault_pbackfail, _IO_wdefault_setbuf, _IO_wdefault_uflow,
  _IO_wdefault_xsgetn, _IO_wdefault_xsputn, _IO_wdoallocbuf, _IO_wdo_write,
  _IO_wfile_jumps, _IO_wfile_overflow, _IO_wfile_sync, _IO_wfile_underflow,
  _IO_wfile_xsputn, _IO_wmarker_delta, or _IO_wsetb may stop working with a
  future version of glibc.  Unlike other symbol removals, these old
  applications will not be supported using compatibility symbols.

* On GNU/Linux, the obsolete Linux constant PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL is no longer
  defined by <sys/ptrace.h>.

* libm no longer supports SVID error handling (calling a user-provided
  matherr function on error) or the _LIB_VERSION variable to control error
  handling.  (SVID error handling and the _LIB_VERSION variable still work
  for binaries linked against older versions of the GNU C Library.)  The
  libieee.a library is no longer provided.  math.h no longer defines struct
  exception, or the macros X_TLOSS, DOMAIN, SING, OVERFLOW, UNDERFLOW,
  TLOSS, PLOSS and HUGE.

* The libm functions pow10, pow10f and pow10l are no longer supported for
  new programs.  Programs should use the standard names exp10, exp10f and
  exp10l for these functions instead.

* The mcontext_t type is no longer the same as struct sigcontext.  On
  platforms where it was previously the same, this changes the C++ name
  mangling for interfaces involving this type.

* The add-ons mechanism for building additional packages at the same time as
  glibc has been removed.  The --enable-add-ons configure option is now
  ignored.

* The --without-fp configure option is now ignored.  Whether hardware
  floating-point instructions are used is now configured based on whether
  the compiler used at configure time (without any options implied by a
  --with-cpu= configure option) uses such instructions.

* The res_hnok, res_dnok, res_mailok and res_ownok functions now check that
  the specified string can be parsed as a domain name.

* In the malloc_info output, the <heap> element may contain another <aspace>
  element, "subheaps", which contains the number of sub-heaps.

* The libresolv function p_secstodate is no longer supported for new
  programs.

* The tilepro-*-linux-gnu configuration is no longer supported.

* The nonstandard header files <libio.h> and <_G_config.h> are deprecated
  and will be removed in a future release.  Software that is still using
  either header should be updated to use standard <stdio.h> interfaces
  instead.

  libio.h was originally the header for a set of supported GNU extensions,
  but they have not been maintained as such in many years, they are now
  standing in the way of improvements to stdio, and we don't think there are
  any remaining external users.  _G_config.h was never intended for public
  use, but predates the bits convention.

Changes to build and runtime requirements:

* bison version 2.7 or later is required to generate code in the 'intl'
  subdirectory.

Security related changes:

  CVE-2009-5064: The ldd script would sometimes run the program under
  examination directly, without preventing code execution through the
  dynamic linker.  (The glibc project disputes that this is a security
  vulnerability; only trusted binaries must be examined using the ldd
  script.)

  CVE-2017-15670: The glob function, when invoked with GLOB_TILDE,
  suffered from a one-byte overflow during ~ operator processing (either
  on the stack or the heap, depending on the length of the user name).
  Reported by Tim Rühsen.

  CVE-2017-15671: The glob function, when invoked with GLOB_TILDE,
  would sometimes fail to free memory allocated during ~ operator
  processing, leading to a memory leak and, potentially, to a denial
  of service.

  CVE-2017-15804: The glob function, when invoked with GLOB_TILDE and
  without GLOB_NOESCAPE, could write past the end of a buffer while
  unescaping user names.  Reported by Tim Rühsen.

  CVE-2017-17426: The malloc function, when called with an object size near
  the value SIZE_MAX, would return a pointer to a buffer which is too small,
  instead of NULL.  This was a regression introduced with the new malloc
  thread cache in glibc 2.26.  Reported by Iain Buclaw.

  CVE-2017-1000408: Incorrect array size computation in _dl_init_paths leads
  to the allocation of too much memory.  (This is not a security bug per se,
  it is mentioned here only because of the CVE assignment.)  Reported by
  Qualys.

  CVE-2017-1000409: Buffer overflow in _dl_init_paths due to miscomputation
  of the number of search path components.  (This is not a security
  vulnerability per se because no trust boundary is crossed if the fix for
  CVE-2017-1000366 has been applied, but it is mentioned here only because
  of the CVE assignment.)  Reported by Qualys.

  CVE-2017-16997: Incorrect handling of RPATH or RUNPATH containing $ORIGIN
  for AT_SECURE or SUID binaries could be used to load libraries from the
  current directory.

  CVE-2018-1000001: Buffer underflow in realpath function when getcwd function
  succeeds without returning an absolute path due to unexpected behaviour
  of the Linux kernel getcwd syscall.  Reported by halfdog.

  CVE-2018-6485: The posix_memalign and memalign functions, when called with
  an object size near the value of SIZE_MAX, would return a pointer to a
  buffer which is too small, instead of NULL.  Reported by Jakub Wilk.

  CVE-2018-6551: The malloc function, when called with an object size near
  the value of SIZE_MAX, would return a pointer to a buffer which is too
  small, instead of NULL.
