fix dynamic linker regression processing R_*_NONE type relocations
commit f3ddd173806fd5c60b3f034528ca24542aecc5b9 inadvertently removed
the early check for "none" type relocations, causing the address
dso->base+0 to be dereferenced to obtain an addend. shared libraries,
(including libc.so) and PIE executables were unaffected, since their
base addresses are the actual address of their mappings and are
readable. non-PIE main executables, however, have a base address of 0
because their load addresses are absolute and not offset at load time.
in practice none-type relocations do not arise with toolchains that
are in use except on mips, and on mips it's moderately rare for a
non-PIE executable to have a relocation table, since the mips-specific
got processing serves in its place for most purposes.

fix failure of ungetc and ungetwc to work on files in eof status
these functions were written to handle clearing eof status, but failed
to account for the __toread function's handling of eof. with this
patch applied, __toread still returns EOF when the file is in eof
status, so that read operations will fail, but it also sets up valid
buffer pointers for read mode, which are set to the end of the buffer
rather than the beginning in order to make the whole buffer available
to ungetc/ungetwc.
minor changes to __uflow were needed since it's now possible to have
non-zero buffer pointers while in eof status. as made, these changes
remove a 'fast path' bypassing the function call to __toread, which
could be reintroduced with slightly different logic, but since
ordinary files have a syscall in f->read, optimizing the code path
does not seem worthwhile.
the __stdio_read function is also updated not to zero the read buffer
pointers on eof/error. while not necessary for correctness, this
change avoids the overhead of calling __toread in ungetc after
reaching eof, and it also reduces code size and increases consistency
with the fmemopen read operation which does not zero the pointers.

reprocess all libc/ldso symbolic relocations in dynamic linking stage 3
commit f3ddd173806fd5c60b3f034528ca24542aecc5b9 introduced early
relocations and subsequent reprocessing as part of the dynamic linker
bootstrap overhaul, to allow use of arbitrary libc functions before
the main application and libraries are loaded, but only reprocessed
GOT/PLT relocation types.
commit c093e2e8201524db0d638920e76bcb6b1d925f3a added reprocessing of
non-GOT/PLT relocations to fix an actual regression that was observed
on powerpc, but only for RELA format tables with out-of-line addends.
REL table (inline addends at the relocation address) reprocessing is
trickier because the first relocation pass clobbers the addends.
this patch extends symbolic relocation reprocessing for libc/ldso to
support all relocation types, whether REL or RELA format tables are
used. it is believed not to alter behavior on any existing archs for
the current dynamic linker and libc code. the motivations for this
change are consistency and future-proofing. it ensures that behavior
does not differ depending on whether REL or RELA tables are used,
which could lead to undetected arch-specific bugs. it also ensures
that, if in the future code depending on additional relocation types
is added to libc.so, either at the source level or as part of the
compiler runtime that gets pulled in (for example, soft-float with TLS
for fenv), the new code will work properly.
the implementation concept is simple: stage 2 of the dynamic linker
counts the number of symbolic relocations in the libc/ldso REL table
and allocates a VLA to save their addends into; stage 3 then uses the
saved addends in place of the inline ones which were clobbered. for
stack safety, a hard limit (currently 4k) is imposed on the number of
such addends; this should be a couple orders of magnitude larger than
the actual need. this number is not a runtime variable that could
break fail-safety; it is constant for a given libc.so build.

this fixes a regression on powerpc that was introduced in commit f3ddd173806fd5c60b3f034528ca24542aecc5b9. global data accesses on
powerpc seem to be using a translation-unit-local GOT filled via
R_PPC_ADDR32 relocations rather than R_PPC_GLOB_DAT. being a non-GOT
relocation type, these were not reprocessed after adding the main
application and its libraries to the chain, causing libc code not to
see copy relocations in the main program, and therefore to use the
pre-copy-relocation addresses for global data objects (like environ).
the motivation for the dynamic linker only reprocessing GOT/PLT
relocation types in stage 3 is that these types always have a zero
addend, making them safe to process again even if the storage for the
addend has been clobbered. other relocation types which can be used
for address constants in initialized data objects may have non-zero
addends which will be clobbered during the first pass of relocation
processing if they're stored inline (REL form) rather than out-of-line
(RELA form).
powerpc generally uses only RELA, so this patch is sufficient to fix
the regression in practice, but is not fully general, and would not

setup a GOT register. use a hidden alias to bypass the issue.
remove the last of possible-textrels from i386 asm
none of these are actual textrels because of ld-time binding performed
by -Bsymbolic-functions, but I'm changing them with the goal of making
ld-time binding purely an optimization rather than relying on it for
semantic purposes.
in the case of memmove's call to memcpy, making it explicit that the
memmove asm is assuming the forward-copying behavior of the memcpy asm
is desirable anyway; in case memcpy is ever changed, the semantic
mismatch would be apparent while editing memmcpy.s.
make dlerror state and message thread-local and dynamically-allocated
this fixes truncation of error messages containing long pathnames or
symbol names.
the dlerror state was previously required by POSIX to be global. the
resolution of bug 97 relaxed the requirements to allow thread-safe
implementations of dlerror with thread-local state and message buffer.

math: fix pow(+-0,-inf) not to raise divbyzero flag
this reverts the commit f29fea00b5bc72d4b8abccba2bb1e312684d1fce
which was based on a bug in C99 and POSIX and did not match IEEE-754

apply hidden visibility to tlsdesc accessor functions
these functions are never called directly; only their addresses are
used, so PLT indirections should never happen unless a broken
application tries to redefine them, but it's still best to make them
hidden.
the casts of the argument to unsigned int suppressed diagnosis of
errors like passing a pointer instead of a character. putting the
actual function call in an unreachable branch restores any diagnostics
that would be present if the macros didn't exist and functions were
used.
the braf instruction's destination register is an offset from the
address of the braf instruction plus 4 (or equivalently, the address
of the next instruction after the delay slot). the code for dlsym was
incorrectly computing the offset to pass using the address of the
delay slot itself. in other places, a label was placed after the delay
slot, but I find this confusing. putting the label on the branch
instruction itself, and manually adding 4, makes it more clear which
branch the offset in the constant pool goes with.
redesign sigsetjmp so that signal mask is restored after longjmp
the conventional way to implement sigsetjmp is to save the signal mask
then tail-call to setjmp; siglongjmp then restores the signal mask and
calls longjmp. the problem with this approach is that a signal already
pending, or arriving between unmasking of signals and restoration of
the saved stack pointer, will have its signal handler run on the stack
that was active before siglongjmp was called. this can lead to
unbounded stack usage when siglongjmp is used to leave a signal
handler.
in the new design, sigsetjmp saves its own return address inside the
extended part of the sigjmp_buf (outside the __jmp_buf part used by
setjmp) then calls setjmp to save a jmp_buf inside its own execution.
it then tail-calls to __sigsetjmp_tail, which uses the return value of
setjmp to determine whether to save the current signal mask or restore
a previously-saved mask.
as an added bonus, this design makes it so that siglongjmp and longjmp
are identical. this is useful because the __longjmp_chk function we
need to add for ABI-compatibility assumes siglongjmp and longjmp are
the same, but for different reasons -- it was designed assuming either
can access a flag just past the __jmp_buf indicating whether the
signal masked was saved, and act on that flag. however, early versions
of musl did not have space past the __jmp_buf for the non-sigjmp_buf
version of jmp_buf, so our setjmp cannot store such a flag without
risking clobbering memory on (very) old binaries.
