glibc 2.31-0ubuntu9.9 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

glibc (2.31-0ubuntu9.9) focal; urgency=medium

  * Disable testsuite on riscv64. It is failing maths tests intermittently in
    ways that cannot be a glibc regression and is disabled in later series
    anyway.

glibc (2.31-0ubuntu9.8) focal; urgency=medium

  * Update for 20.04. (LP: #1951033)

  [ Balint Reczey ]
  * Cherry-pick upstream patch to fix building with -moutline-atomics
  * Prevent rare deadlock in pthread_cond_signal (LP: #1899800)

  [ Matthias Klose ]
  * Revert: Use DH_COMPAT=8 for dh_strip to fix debug sections for valgrind.
    Enables debugging ld.so related issues. (LP: #1918035)
  * Don't strip ld.so on armhf. (LP: #1927192)

  [ Gunnar Hjalmarsson ]
  * d/local/usr_sbin/update-locale: improve sanity checks. (LP: #1892825)

  [ Heitor Alves de Siqueira ]
  * d/p/u/git-lp1928508-reversing-calculation-of-__x86_shared_non_temporal.patch:
    - Fix memcpy() performance regression on x86 AMD systems (LP: #1928508)

  [ Aurelien Jarno ]
  * debian/debhelper.in/libc.preinst: drop the check for kernel release
    > 255 now that glibc and preinstall script are fixed. (LP: #1962225)

  [ Michael Hudson-Doyle ]
  * libc6 on arm64 is now built with -moutline-atomics so libc6-lse can now be
    an empty package that is safe to remove. (LP: #1912652)
  * d/patches/u/aarch64-memcpy-improvements.patch: Backport memcpy
    improvements. (LP: #1951032)
  * Add test-float64x-yn to xfails on riscv64.

Binary packages built by this source

glibc-doc: GNU C Library: Documentation

 Contains man pages for libpthread functions and the complete GNU C Library
 ChangeLog. The GNU C Library Reference manual has been moved into

 which use the standard C library. This is the 64bit version of the
 library, meant for AMD64 systems.

libc6-dev-armel: GNU C Library: ARM softfp development libraries for armhf

 library, meant for armhf systems.

libc6-dev-i386: GNU C Library: 32-bit development libraries for AMD64

 Contains the symlinks and object files needed to compile and link programs
 which use the standard C library. This is the 32bit version of the
 library, meant for AMD64 systems.

libc6-dev-s390: GNU C Library: 32bit Development Libraries for IBM zSeries

 This package includes shared versions of the standard C
 library and the standard math library, as well as many others.
 This is the 32bit version of the library, meant for AMD64 systems.

libc6-i386-dbgsym: debug symbols for libc6-i386
libc6-lse: Dummy package.

 This package used to contain libraries optimized to support the "large
 system extensions", but such support is now contained in the base libraries
 in a way that works on all systems. This package is empty and can safely be
 removed.

libc6-pic: GNU C Library: PIC archive library

 Contains an archive library (ar file) composed of individual shared objects.
 This is used for creating a library which is a smaller subset of the
 standard libc shared library. The reduced library is used by debian-installer
 and may be useful for custom installation media and in embedded systems.

libc6-prof: GNU C Library: Shared Libraries

 Contains the standard libraries that are used by nearly all programs on
 the system. This package includes shared versions of the standard C library
 and the standard math library, as well as many others.
 .
 This package contains all libraries compiled for profiling.

libc6-s390: GNU C Library: 32bit Shared libraries for IBM zSeries

 This package includes shared versions of the standard C library and the
 standard math library, as well as many others. This is the 32bit version
 of the library.

 Contains the standard libraries that are used by nearly all programs on
 the system. This package includes shared versions of the standard C library
 and the standard math library, as well as many others.
 .
 This package contains a minimal set of libraries needed for the Debian
 installer. Do not install it on a normal system.

 This package includes shared versions of the standard C library and the
 standard math library, as well as many others. This is the X32 ABI version
 of the library, meant for AMD64 systems.

libc6-x32-dbgsym: debug symbols for libc6-x32
locales: GNU C Library: National Language (locale) data [support]

 Machine-readable data files, shared objects and programs used by the
 C library for localization (l10n) and internationalization (i18n) support.
 .
 This package contains tools to generate locale definitions from source
 files (included in this package). It allows you to customize which
 definitions actually get generated. This is a space-saver over how this
 package used to be, with all locales generated by default. This created
 a package that unpacked to an excess of 30 megs.

locales-all: GNU C Library: Precompiled locale data

 This package contains the precompiled locale data for all supported locales.
 A better alternative is to install the locales package and only select
 desired locales, but it can be useful on a low-memory machine because some
 locale files take a lot of memory to be compiled.

nscd: GNU C Library: Name Service Cache Daemon

 A daemon which handles passwd, group and host lookups
 for running programs and caches the results for the next
 query. You should install this package only if you use
 slow services like LDAP, NIS or NIS+.

nscd-dbgsym: debug symbols for nscd
