adjust types in FILE struct to make line buffering check less expensive
the choice of signed char for lbf was a theoretically space-saving

comparing bytes against a byte-sized member sounds easy, the trick
here was that the byte to be compared was unsigned while the lbf
member was signed, making it possible to set lbf negative to disable

operands, zero-extending one and sign-extending the other, in order to
compare them.

rewrite core of the glob implementation for correctness & optimization
this code has been long overdue for a rewrite, but the immediate cause
that necessitated it was total failure to see past unreadable path
components. for example, A/B/* would fail to match anything, even
though it should succeed, when both A and A/B are searchable but only
A/B is readable. this problem both was caught in conformance testing,
and impacted users.
the old glob implementation insisted on searching the listing of each
path component for a match, even if the next component was a literal.
it also used considerable stack space, up to length of the pattern,
per recursion level, and relied on an artificial bound of the pattern
length by PATH_MAX, which was incorrect because a pattern can be much
longer than PATH_MAX while having matches shorter (for example, with
necessarily long bracket expressions, or with redundancy).
in the new implementation, each level of recursion starts by consuming
the maximal literal (possibly escaped-literal) path prefix remaining
in the pattern, and only opening a directory to read when there is a
proper glob pattern in the next path component. it then recurses into
each matching entry. the top-level glob function provided automatic
storage (up to PATH_MAX) for construction of candidate/result strings,
and allocates a duplicate of the pattern that can be modified in-place
with temporary null-termination to pass to fnmatch. this allocation is
not a big deal since glob already has to perform allocation, and has
to link free to clean up if it experiences an allocation failure or
other error after some results have already been allocated.
care is taken to use the d_type field from iterated dirents when
possible; stat is called only when there are literal path components
past the last proper-glob component, or when needed to disambiguate
symlinks for the purpose of GLOB_MARK.
one peculiarity with the new implementation is the manner in which the
error handling callback will be called. if attempting to match */B/C/D
where a directory A exists that is inaccessible, the error reported
will be a stat error for A/B/C/D rather than (previous and wrong
implementation) an opendir error for A, or (likely on other
implementations) a stat error for A/B. such behavior does not seem to
be non-conforming, but if it turns out to be undesirable for any
reason, backtracking could be done on error to report the first
component producing it.
also, redundant slashes are no longer normalized, but preserved as
they appear in the pattern; this is probably more correct, and falls
out naturally from the algorithm used. since trailing slashes (which
force all matches to be directories) are preserved as well, the
behavior of GLOB_MARK has been adjusted not to append an additional
slash to results that already end in slash.

interpretation seems to be that the application can edit the ai_next

actual freeing of individual list slots is contrary to the design of
our getaddrinfo implementation, which has no failure paths after

sharing the string for ai_canonname, which the current implementation
does despite no requirement that it be present except on the first

freeing the memory all at once after the last slot has been freed.

for handling other constructs like multiple lists glued together,
circular links, etc. is made. presumably passing such a construct to

EADDRNOTAVAIL when the loopback device is not configured and there is
no default route for IPv6. this caused getaddrinfo with AI_ADDRCONFIG
to fail with EAI_SYSTEM and EADDRNOTAVAIL on some no-IPv6
configurations, rather than the intended behavior of detecting IPv6 as
unsuppported and producing IPv4-only results.
previously, only EAFNOSUPPORT was treated as unavailability of the
address family being probed. instead, treat all errors related to
inability to get an address or route as conclusive that the family
being probed is unsupported, and only fail with EAI_SYSTEM on other
errors.
further improvements may be desirable, such as reporting EAI_AGAIN
instead of EAI_SYSTEM for errors which are expected to be transient,

support setting of default thread stack size via PT_GNU_STACK header
this facilitates building software that assumes a large default stack
size without any patching to call pthread_setattr_default_np or
pthread_attr_setstacksize at each thread creation site, using just
LDFLAGS.
normally the PT_GNU_STACK header is used only to reflect whether
executable stack is desired, but with GNU ld at least, passing
-Wl,-z,stack-size=N will set a size on the program header. with this
patch, that size will be incorporated into the default stack size
(subject to increase-only rule and DEFAULT_STACK_MAX limit).
both static and dynamic linking honor the program header. for dynamic
linking, all libraries loaded at program start, including preloaded
ones, are considered. dlopened libraries are not considered, for
several reasons. extra logic would be needed to defer processing until
the load of the new library is commited, synchronization woud be
needed since other threads may be running concurrently, and the
effectiveness woud be limited since the larger size would not apply to
threads that already existed at the time of dlopen. programs that will
dlopen code expecting a large stack need to declare the requirement
themselves, or pthread_setattr_default_np can be used.

fix deletion of pthread tsd keys that still have non-null values stored
per POSIX, deletion of a key for which some threads still have values
stored is permitted, and newly created keys must initially hold the
null value in all threads. these properties were not met by our
implementation; if a key was deleted with values left and a new key
was created in the same slot, the old values were still visible.
moreover, due to lack of any synchronization in pthread_key_delete,
there was a TOCTOU race whereby a concurrent pthread_exit could
attempt to call a null destructor pointer for the newly orphaned
value.
this commit introduces a solution based on __synccall, stopping the
world to zero out the values for deleted keys, but only does so lazily
when all key slots have been exhausted. pthread_key_delete is split
off into a separate translation unit so that static-linked programs
which only create keys but never delete them will not pull in the
__synccall machinery.
a global rwlock is added to synchronize creation and deletion of keys
with dtor execution. since the dtor execution loop now has to release
and retake the lock around its call to each dtor, checks are made not
to call the nodtor dummy function for keys which lack a dtor.

getdelim: only grow buffer when necessary, improve OOM behavior
commit
b114190b29417fff6f701eea3a3b3b6030338280 introduced spurious
realloc of the output buffer in cases where the result would exactly
fit in the caller-provided buffer. this is contrary to a strict
reading of the spec, which only allows realloc when the provided
buffer is "of insufficient size".
revert the adjustment of the realloc threshold, and instead push the
byte read by getc_unlocked (for which the adjustment was made) back
into the stdio buffer if it does not fit in the output buffer, to be
read in the next loop iteration.
in order not to leave a pushed-back byte in the stdio buffer if
realloc fails (which would violate the invariant that logical FILE
position and underlying open file description offset match for
unbuffered FILEs), the OOM code path must be changed. it would suffice
move just one byte in this case, but from a QoI perspective, in the
event of ENOMEM the entire output buffer (up to the allocated length
reported via *n) should contain bytes read from the FILE stream.
otherwise the caller has no way to distinguish trunated data from
uninitialized buffer space.
the SIZE_MAX/2 check is removed since the sum of disjoint object sizes
is assumed not to be able to overflow, leaving just one OOM code path.

fix undefined behavior in strto* via FILE buffer pointer abuse
in order to produce FILE objects to pass to the intscan/floatscan
backends without any (prohibitively costly) extra buffering layer, the
strto* functions set the FILE's rend (read end) buffer pointer to an
invalid value at the end of the address space, or SIZE_MAX/2 past the
beginning of the string. this led to undefined behavior comparing and
subtracting the end pointer with the buffer position pointer (rpos).
the comparison issue is easily eliminated by using != instead of <.
however the subtractions require nontrivial changes:
previously, f->shcnt stored the count that would have been read if
consuming the whole buffer, which required an end pointer for the
buffer. the purpose for this was that it allowed reading it and adding
rpos-rend at any time to get the actual count so far, and required no
adjustment at the time of __shgetc (actual function call) since the
call would only happen when reaching the end of the buffer.
to get rid of the dependency on rend, instead offset shcnt by buf-rpos
(start of buffer) at the time of last __shlim/__shgetc call. this
makes for slightly more work in __shgetc the function, but for the
inline macro it's still just as easy to compute the current count.
since the scan helper interfaces used here are a big hack, comments

overhaul internally-public declarations using wrapper headers
commits leading up to this one have moved the vast majority of
libc-internal interface declarations to appropriate internal headers,
allowing them to be type-checked and setting the stage to limit their
visibility. the ones that have not yet been moved are mostly
namespace-protected aliases for standard/public interfaces, which
exist to facilitate implementing plain C functions in terms of POSIX
functionality, or C or POSIX functionality in terms of extensions that
are not standardized. some don't quite fit this description, but are
"internally public" interfacs between subsystems of libc.
rather than create a number of newly-named headers to declare these
functions, and having to add explicit include directives for them to
every source file where they're needed, I have introduced a method of
wrapping the corresponding public headers.
parallel to the public headers in $(srcdir)/include, we now have
wrappers in $(srcdir)/src/include that come earlier in the include
path order. they include the public header they're wrapping, then add
declarations for namespace-protected versions of the same interfaces
and any "internally public" interfaces for the subsystem they
correspond to.
along these lines, the wrapper for features.h is now responsible for
the definition of the hidden, weak, and weak_alias macros. this means
source files will no longer need to include any special headers to
access these features.
over time, it is my expectation that the scope of what is "internally
public" will expand, reducing the number of source files which need to
include *_impl.h and related headers down to those which are actually
implementing the corresponding subsystems, not just using them.
