The current value used for ulp near zero is wrong,
and this commit fixes it such that ulp(0) is the smallest
subnormal value nearest to zero, which makes the most
sense for testing values near zero. Note that this is not
what Java does; they use the nearest normal value, which
is less accurate than what we want for glibc. Note that
there is no correct implementation of ulp since there
is no strict mathmatical definition that is accepted by
all groups using IEEE 754.
Previously with the large ulp values near zero there
were tests that previously passed, but were in fact
billions of ulp away from the precise answer. With this
commit we now need to disable one of the cpow tests which
is revealed to be inaccurate (bug 14473).

The existing test avoided passing -mcmodel=large if the compiler didn't
support it. However, we need to test not just the compiler support, but
also the toolchain (as and ld) support, so make the test more complete.
In addition, we have to avoid using the hwN_plt() assembly operators if
that support is missing, so guard the uses with #ifdef NO_PLT_PCREL.
This allows us to properly build glibc with the current community
binutils, which doesn't yet have the PC-relative PLT operator support.
The -mcmodel=large support is in gcc 4.8, but the toolchain support
won't be present in the community until binutils 2.24.

Fixes 15381.
Using wide character function is on byte oriented memstream is undefined
behaviour. This behaviour was masked by not initializing wide struct
info. We now initialize it to cause a predictable crash.

In dl-hwcaps.c the comment read that rounding was done
to ElfW(Addr), but it's actually rounded to ElfW(Word).
In ldconfig.c we make each comment a sentence and
mention that the "tls" pseudo-hwcap is just for legacy
installations where TLS was optional.

Adds new SIGBUS error codes for hardware poison signals, syncing with
the current kernel headers (v3.9). It also adds si_trapno field for
alpha.

This patch fixes two issues, and perhaps should be two distinct commits,
but I present it here as one for the sake of completeness.
Commit 006dd86111c44572dbd3b26e9c63dd0f834d7762 fails to check malloc's
return in intl/dcigettext.c (_nl_find_msg):
~~~
freemem_size = INITIAL_BLOCK_SIZE;
newmem = (transmem_block_t *) malloc (freemem_size);
...
newmem->next = transmem_list;
transmem_list = newmem;
~~~
If malloc fails then newmem is NULL then newmem->next results in a
fault.
The fix is easy enough, check for newmem != NULL, and fall through to
the error condition below which returns (char *) -1 e.g. resource error.
The problem is that returning (char *) -1 will break all sorts of other
code, so while what we did is correct, the real failure case fix is
slightly broader.
There are 4 other places where _nl_find_msg is called, one is OK, the
other three are fixed to handle -1 error return value.
No regressions on x86-64 or x86.
However, no regressions isn't really a useful metric for this code.
The change was tested as documented here:
http://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Testing/WhiteBox
using SystemTap for fault injection to simulate malloc failure.

[BZ #15441]
* intl/dcigettext.c (DCIGETTEXT): Skip translating if _nl_find_msg
returns -1.
(_nl_find_msg): Return -1 if recursive call returned -1. If newmem is
null return -1.
* intl/loadmsgcat.c (_nl_load_domain): If _nl_find_msg returns -1 abort
loading the domain.

Add benchmark inputs for inverse and hyperbolic trigonometric
functions and log.

This helps testing for regression of BZ#15339. Creation of network
isolated environments is a privileged operation and therefore is not
included to the test.

Fixes BZ #15339.
NSS_STATUS_UNAVAIL may mean that a necessary input resource is not
available. This could occur in a number of cases including when the
network is down, system runs out of file descriptors, etc. The
correct differentiator in such a case is the h_errno, which gives the
nature of failure. In case of failures other than a simple 'not
found', we set h_errno as NETDB_INTERNAL and let errno be the
identifier for the exact error.

Update ChangLog bugzilla number and NEWS for commit

check for -INF).

This implementation speed up memset in several ways. First is avoiding
expensive computed jump. Second is using fact that arguments of memset
are most of time aligned to 8 bytes.
Benchmark results on:

We add new memcpy version that uses unaligned loads which are fast
on modern processors. This allows second improvement which is avoiding
computed jump which is relatively expensive operation.
Tests available here:

Resolves: #15424
The compiler would optimize the benchmark function call out of the
loop and call it only once, resulting in blazingly fast times for some
benchmarks (notably atan, sin and cos). Mark the inputs as volatile
so that the code is forced to read again from the input for each
iteration.

[BZ #15442] This adds support for the inverse interpretation of the
quiet bit of IEEE 754 floating-point NaN data that some processors
use. This includes in particular MIPS architecture processors; the
payload used for the canonical qNaN encoding is updated accordingly
so as not to interfere with the quiet bit.

This function is not const, as it can modify log2_m and log2_m_inited.

Joseph Myers noted that there were several old and really very
incorrect values in the hppa libm-test-ulps. This patch removes
all of the ulps values for ceil, floor, rint, round, trun,
llrint, and llround, all of which were previously incorreclty
added (including some negative values which are really wrong).
