The rtld audit support show two problems on aarch64:
1. _dl_runtime_resolve does not preserve x8, the indirect result
location register, which might generate wrong result calls
depending of the function signature.
2. The NEON Q registers pushed onto the stack by _dl_runtime_resolve
were twice the size of D registers extracted from the stack frame by
_dl_runtime_profile.
While 2. might result in wrong information passed on the PLT tracing,
1. generates wrong runtime behaviour.
The aarch64 rtld audit support is changed to:
* Both La_aarch64_regs and La_aarch64_retval are expanded to include
both x8 and the full sized NEON V registers, as defined by the
ABI.
* dl_runtime_profile needed to extract registers saved by
_dl_runtime_resolve and put them into the new correctly sized
La_aarch64_regs structure.
* The LAV_CURRENT check is change to only accept new audit modules
to avoid the undefined behavior of not save/restore x8.
* Different than other architectures, audit modules older than
LAV_CURRENT are rejected (both La_aarch64_regs and La_aarch64_retval
changed their layout and there are no requirements to support multiple
audit interface with the inherent aarch64 issues).
* A new field is also reserved on both La_aarch64_regs and
La_aarch64_retval to support variant pcs symbols.
Similar to x86, a new La_aarch64_vector type to represent the NEON
register is added on the La_aarch64_regs (so each type can be accessed
directly).
Since LAV_CURRENT was already bumped to support bind-now, there is
no need to increase it again.
Checked on aarch64-linux-gnu.

I used these shell commands:

(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:

I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,

Using the macros for ELF types is required for adding ILP32 support.
In the standard AArch64 configuration this makes no difference to
the types used.
ChangeLog:
2014-11-21 Will Newton <will.newton@linaro.org>
Andrew Pinski <andrew.pinski@caviumnetworks.com>
* sysdeps/aarch64/bits/link.h (la_aarch64_gnu_pltenter): Use
ElfW macro instead of hardcoded Elf64 types.
(la_aarch64_gnu_pltenter): Likewise.
* sysdeps/aarch64/dl-machine.h
(elf_machine_runtime_setup): Use ElfW(Addr).
This patch moves the AArch64 port to the main sysdeps hierarchy. The
move is essentially:
git mv ports/sysdeps/aarch64 sysdeps/aarch64
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64 sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64
The README is updated and I've updated ChangeLog.aarch64 along the
lines of the ARM move. The AArch64 build has been tested to confirm
that there were no changes in objdump -dr output or the shared
objects.
