I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 6694 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c
and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this
diagnostic from Savannah:
remote: *** pre-commit check failed ...
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
Makes __stpncpy_power8 call __memset_power8 directly rather than via an
IFUNC. Fixes a missing _mcount, and removes some redundant NOPS. The
*_is_local defines are also used in a followup patch.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/multiarch/strncpy-power7.S: Define
MEMSET_is_local.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/multiarch/strncpy-power8.S: Likewise.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/multiarch/stpncpy-power7.S: Likewise.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/multiarch/stpncpy-power8.S: Likewise.
Define MEMSET.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/multiarch/strstr-power7.S: Define
STRLEN_is_local, STRNLEN_is_local, and STRCHR_is_local.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power7/strstr.S: Likewise. Don't add
nop after local calls.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power7/strncpy.S: Define MEMSET_is_local.
Don't add nop after local call.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power8/strncpy.S: Likewise. Add missing
CALL_MCOUNT.
Clean up the IFUNC implementations for powerpc in order to remove
unneeded macro definitions.
Tested on ppc64le with and without --disable-multi-arch flag.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/multiarch/strcasestr-power8.S: Define the
strcasestr implementation name and remove unneeded macros definition.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/multiarch/strstr-power7.S: Define
strstr implementation name and remove unneeded macros definition.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power7/strstr.S: Set a default function
name if not defined and pass as parameter to macros accordingly.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power8/strcasestr.S: Likewise.
Instead of checking needle length, constant 'n' number of comparisons
is checked to fall back to default implementation. This patch is tested
on powerpc64 and powerpc64le.

* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power7/strstr.S: Handle worst case.
When building with --disable-multi-arch the memmove and strstr POWER7
optimization create and uses symbols that conflict with expect conform
tests.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power7/memmove.S (bcopy): Changing to
__bcopy and add a weak_alias to bcopy.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power7/strstr.S (strstr): Use __strnlen
for static build.
This patch optimizes strstr function for power >= 7 systems. Performance
gain is obtained using aligned memory access and usage of cmpb
instruction for quicker comparison. The average improvement of this
optimization is ~40%. Tested on ppc64 and ppc64le.

* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/multiarch/Makefile: Add strstr().
