elf: Change ldconfig auxcache magic number (bug 32231)

2024-10-28T13:45:30+00:00

In commit c628c2296392ed3bf2cb8d8470668e64fe53389f (elf: Remove
ldconfig kernel version check), the layout of auxcache entries
changed because the osversion field was removed from
struct aux_cache_file_entry.  However, AUX_CACHEMAGIC was not
changed, so existing files are still used, potentially leading
to unintended ldconfig behavior.  This commit changes AUX_CACHEMAGIC,
so that the file is regenerated.

Remove ia64-linux-gnu

2024-01-08T20:09:36+00:00

Linux 6.7 removed ia64 from the official tree [1], following the general
principle that a glibc port needs upstream support for the architecture
in all the components it depends on (binutils, GCC, and the Linux
kernel).

Apart from the removal of sysdeps/ia64 and sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ia64,
there are updates to various comments referencing ia64 for which removal
of those references seemed appropriate. The configuration is removed
from README and build-many-glibcs.py.

The CONTRIBUTED-BY, elf/elf.h, manual/contrib.texi (the porting
mention), *.po files, config.guess, and longlong.h are not changed.

For Linux it allows cleanup some clone2 support on multiple files.

The following bug can be closed as WONTFIX: BZ 22634 [2], BZ 14250 [3],
BZ 21634 [4], BZ 10163 [5], BZ 16401 [6], and BZ 11585 [7].

Assume only FLAG_ELF_LIBC6 suport

2022-08-04T12:09:48+00:00

The older libc versions are obsolete for over twenty years now.
This patch removes the special flags for libc5 and libc4 and assumes
that all libraries cached are libc6 compatible and use FLAG_ELF_LIBC6.

Checked with a build for all affected architectures.
