The kernel ABI is not finalized, and there are now various proposals
to change the size of struct rseq, which would make the glibc ABI
dependent on the version of the kernels used for building glibc.
This is of course not acceptable.
This reverts commit 48699da1c4 ("elf:
Support at least 32-byte alignment in static dlopen"), commit
8f4632deb3 ("Linux: rseq registration
tests"), commit 6e29cb3f61 ("Linux: Use
rseq in sched_getcpu if available"), and commit
0c76fc3c2b ("Linux: Perform rseq
registration at C startup and thread creation"), resolving the conflicts
introduced by the ARC port and the TLS static surplus changes.

The strerrorname_np returns error number name (e.g. "EINVAL" for EINVAL)
while strerrordesc_np returns string describing error number (e.g
"Invalid argument" for EINVAL). Different than strerror,
strerrordesc_np does not attempt to translate the return description,
both functions return NULL for an invalid error number.
They should be used instead of sys_errlist and sys_nerr, both are
thread and async-signal safe. These functions are GNU extensions.
Checked on x86-64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, powerpc64le-linux-gnu,
and s390x-linux-gnu.

The sigabbrev_np returns the abbreviated signal name (e.g. "HUP" for
SIGHUP) while sigdescr_np returns the string describing the error
number (e.g "Hangup" for SIGHUP). Different than strsignal,
sigdescr_np does not attempt to translate the return description and
both functions return NULL for an invalid signal number.
They should be used instead of sys_siglist or sys_sigabbrev and they
are both thread and async-signal safe. They are added as GNU

The variable is placed in libc.so, and it can be true only in
an outer libc, not libcs loaded via dlmopen or static dlopen.
Since thread creation from inner namespaces does not work,
pthread_create can update __libc_single_threaded directly.
Using __libc_early_init and its initial flag, implementation of this
variable is very straightforward. A future version may reset the flag
during fork (but not in an inner namespace), or after joining all
threads except one.

Register rseq TLS for each thread (including main), and unregister for
each thread (excluding main). "rseq" stands for Restartable Sequences.
See the rseq(2) man page proposed here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/9/19/647
Those are based on glibc master branch commit 3ee1e0ec5c.
The rseq system call was merged into Linux 4.18.
The TLS_STATIC_SURPLUS define is increased to leave additional room for
dlopen'd initial-exec TLS, which keeps elf/tst-auditmany working.
The increase (76 bytes) is larger than 32 bytes because it has not been
increased in quite a while. The cost in terms of additional TLS storage
is quite significant, but it will also obscure some initial-exec-related
dlopen failures.

Use __getline instead of __getdelim to avoid a localplt failure.
Likewise for __getrlimit/getrlimit.
The abilist updates were performed by:
git ls-files 'sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/**/libc.abilist' \
| while read x ; do
echo "GLIBC_2.32 pthread_getattr_np F" >> $x
done
python3 scripts/move-symbol-to-libc.py --only-linux pthread_getattr_np
The private export of __pthread_getaffinity_np is no longer needed, but
the hidden alias still necessary so that the symbol can be exported with
versioned_symbol.

The symbol did not previously exist in libc, so a new GLIBC_2.32

use the symbol but no longer link against libpthread.

A new symbol version is added on libc to force loading failure
instead of lazy binding one for newly binaries with old loaders.
Checked with a build against all affected ABIs.
No 32-bit system call wrapper is added because the interface
is problematic because it cannot deal with 64-bit inode numbers
and 64-bit directory hashes.
A future commit will deprecate the undocumented getdirentries
and getdirentries64 functions.

This commit adds gettid to <unistd.h> on Linux, and not to the

gettid is now supportable on Linux because too many things assume a
