an optimized ifunc version (built with -mfma -mavx2, not correctly
rounded). This explains the performance difference for x86_64.
Same for i686, where the ABI provides an optimized __ieee754_exp2f

C23 adds various <math.h> function families originally defined in TS
18661-4. Add the logp1 functions (aliases for log1p functions - the
name is intended to be more consistent with the new log2p1 and
log10p1, where clearly it would have been very confusing to name those
functions log21p and log101p). As aliases rather than new functions,
the content of this patch is somewhat different from those actually
adding new functions.
Tests are shared with log1p, so this patch *does* mechanically update
all affected libm-test-ulps files to expect the same errors for both
functions.
The vector versions of log1p on aarch64 and x86_64 are *not* updated
to have logp1 aliases (and thus there are no corresponding header,
tests, abilist or ulps changes for vector functions either). It would
be reasonable for such vector aliases and corresponding changes to
other files to be made separately. For now, the log1p tests instead
avoid testing logp1 in the vector case (a Makefile change is needed to
avoid problems with grep, used in generating the .c files for vector
function tests, matching more than one ALL_RM_TEST line in a file
testing multiple functions with the same inputs, when it assumes that
the .inc file only has a single such line).
Tested for x86_64 and x86, and with build-many-glibcs.py.
The 680c597e9c commit made loader reject ill-formatted strings by
first tracking all set tunables and then applying them. However, it does
not take into consideration if the same tunable is set multiple times,
where parse_tunables_string appends the found tunable without checking
if it was already in the list. It leads to a stack-based buffer overflow
if the tunable is specified more than the total number of tunables. For
instance:
GLIBC_TUNABLES=glibc.malloc.check=2:... (repeat over the number of
total support for different tunable).
Instead, use the index of the tunable list to get the expected tunable
entry. Since now the initial list is zero-initialized, the compiler
might emit an extra memset and this requires some minor adjustment
on some ports.

I'm not sure of the exact sequence of undefined references that cause
first the glibc object file defining .div and then the libgcc object
file defining both .div and .udiv to be pulled in (which must have
been perturbed by that GCC change in a way that introduced the build
failure), but I think the failure illustrates that it's inherently
fragile for glibc to define symbols in separate object files that
libgcc defines in the same object file - and indeed for glibc to
redefine libgcc symbols at all, since the division into object files
shouldn't really be part of the interface between libgcc and libc.
These symbols appear to be in libc only for compatibility, maybe one
of the cases where they were accidentally exported from shared libc in
glibc 2.0 before the introduction of symbol versioning and so programs
started expecting shared libc to provide them. Thus, there is no need
to have them in static libc. Add this set of libgcc functions to
shared-only-routines so they are no longer provided in static libc.
(No change is made regarding .mul - dotmul source file - since unlike
the other symbols in this grouping, it doesn't actually appear to be a
libgcc symbol, at least in current GCC.)
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py for sparcv9-linux-gnu with GCC
mainline.
The _dl_non_dynamic_init does not parse LD_PROFILE, which does not
enable profile for dlopen objects. Since dlopen is deprecated for
static objects, it is better to remove the support.
It also allows to trim down libc.a of profile support.
