Upstream, some of the nonshared functions moved to be different for hurd
and for linux. Since our glibc is linux-only we update to use the
linux-specific files.
This fixes std lib tests for x86_64 when linking glibc.
This commit introduces tools/update_glibc.zig to update the start files
for next time.
Some notable changes in recent glibc:
* abi-note.S has been changed to abi-note.c but we resist the change to
keep it easier to compile the start files.
* elf-init.c has been deleted upstream. Further testing should be done
to verify that binaries against glibc omitting elf-init.c still run
properly on oldel glibc linux systems.
Closes#4926
This commit upgrades glibc shared library stub-creating code to use the
new abilists file which is generated by the new glibc-abi-tool project:
https://github.com/ziglang/glibc-abi-tool/
The abilists file is different in these ways:
* It additionally encodes whether a symbol is a function or an object,
and if it is an object, it additionally encodes the size in bytes.
* It additionally encodes migrations of symbols from one library to
another between glibc versions.
* It is binary data instead of ascii.
* It is one file instead of three.
* It is 165 KB instead of 200 KB.
This solves three bugs:
Fixes#7667Fixes#8714Fixes#8896
also start prefering NtDll API. so far:
* NtQueryInformationFile
* NtClose
adds a performance workaround for windows unicode conversion. but that
should probably be removed before merging
