(then it is enough to return x with the usual subnormal handling)
this fixes the sign of log1p(0) in downward rounding.
* Do not handle the k==0 case specially (other than skipping the
elaborate argument reduction)
* Do not handle 1+x close to power-of-two specially (this code was
used rarely, did not give much speed up and the precision wasn't
better than the general)
* Fix the correction term formula (c=1-(u-x) was used incorrectly
when x<1 but (double)(x+1)==2, this was not a critical issue)
* Use the exact same method for calculating log(1+f) as in log
(except in log1p the c correction term is added to the result).

* Now the first part of log10 and log2 is identical to log (until the
return statement, hopefully this makes maintainence easier).
* Most special case formulas were removed (close to power-of-two and
k==0 cases), they increase the code size without providing precision
or performance benefits (and obfuscate the code).
Only x==1 is handled specially so in downward rounding mode the
sign of zero is correct (the general formula happens to give -0).
* For x==0 instead of -1/0.0 or -two54/0.0, return -1/(x*x) to force
raising the exception at runtime.
* Arg reduction code is changed (slightly simplified)
* The thresholds for arg reduction to [sqrt(2)/2,sqrt(2)] are now

fix uid/gid-setting error in faccessat with AT_EACCESS flag
this fixes an issue reported by Daniel Thau whereby faccessat with the
AT_EACCESS flag did not work in cases where the process is running
suid or sgid but without root privileges. per POSIX, when the process
does not have "appropriate privileges", setuid changes the euid, not
the real uid, and the target uid must be equal to the current real or
saved uid; if this condition is not met, EPERM results. this caused
the faccessat child process to fail.
using the setreuid syscall rather than setuid works. POSIX leaves it
unspecified whether setreuid can set the real user id to the effective
user id on processes without "appropriate privileges", but Linux
allows this; if it's not allowed, there would be no way for this
function to work.

fix errno value for getcwd when size argument is zero
based on patch by Michael Forney. at the same time, I've changed the

the underlying issue is that Linux always returns ERANGE when size is

special case of zero as required by POSIX.

slightly optimize __brk for size
there is no reason to check the return value for setting errno, since

fix buffer overflow in mbsrtowcs
issue reported by Michael Forney:
"If wn becomes 0 after processing a chunk of 4, mbsrtowcs currently
continues on, wrapping wn around to -1, causing the rest of the string
to be processed.
This resulted in buffer overruns if there was only space in ws for wn
wide characters."
the original patch submitted added an additional check for !wn after
the loop; to avoid extra branching, I instead just changed the wn>=4
check to wn>=5 to ensure that at least one slot remains after the
word-at-a-time loop runs. this should not slow down the tail
processing on real-world usage, since an extra slot that can't be
processed in the word-at-a-time loop is needed for the null
termination anyway.

fix arm atomic store and generate simpler/less-bloated/faster code
atomic store was lacking a barrier, which was fine for legacy arm with
no real smp and kernel-emulated cas, but unsuitable for more modern
systems. the kernel provides another "kuser" function, at 0xffff0fa0,
which could be used for the barrier, but using that would drop support
for kernels 2.6.12 through 2.6.14 unless an extra conditional were
added to check for barrier availability. just using the barrier in the
kernel cas is easier, and, based on my reading of the assembly code in
the kernel, does not appear to be significantly slower.
at the same time, other atomic operations are adapted to call the
kernel cas function directly rather than using a_cas; due to small
differences in their interface contracts, this makes the generated
code much simpler.

fix potential deadlock bug in libc-internal locking logic
if a multithreaded program became non-multithreaded (i.e. all other
threads exited) while one thread held an internal lock, the remaining
thread would fail to release the lock. the the program then became
multithreaded again at a later time, any further attempts to obtain
the lock would deadlock permanently.
the underlying cause is that the value of libc.threads_minus_1 at
unlock time might not match the value at lock time. one solution would
be returning a flag to the caller indicating whether the lock was
taken and needs to be unlocked, but there is a simpler solution: using
the lock itself as such a flag.
note that this flag is not needed anyway for correctness; if the lock
is not held, the unlock code is harmless. however, the memory
synchronization properties associated with a_store are costly on some
archs, so it's best to avoid executing the unlock code when it is
unnecessary.
