There are number of changes in the way IFUNC related relocations are done:
1. IRELATIVE relocations are now supported for x86/x86_64 and arm64.
2. IFUNC relocations are now relying on static linker to generate
them in correct order - this removes necessety of additional
relocation pass for ifuncs.
3. Related to 2: rela?.dyn relocations are preformed before .plt ones.
4. Ifunc are resolved on symbol lookup this approach allowed to avoid
mprotect(PROT_WRITE) call on r-x program segments.

A lot of third-party code calls the private __get_thread symbol,
often as part of a backport of bionic's pthread_rwlock implementation.
Hopefully this will go away for LP64 (since you're guaranteed the
real implementation there), but there are still APIs that take a tid
and no way to convert between a pthread_t and a tid. pthread_gettid_np
is a public API for that. To aid the transition, make __get_thread
available again for LP32.
(cherry-pick of 27efc48814b8153c55cbcd0af5d9add824816e69.)

The use of the .hidden directive to avoid going via the PLT for
__set_errno had the side-effect of actually making __set_errno
hidden (which is odd because assembler directives don't usually
affect symbols defined in a different file --- you can't even
create a weak reference to a symbol that's defined in a different
file).
This change switches the system call stubs over to a new always-hidden
__set_errno_internal and has a visible __set_errno on LP32 just for
binary compatibility with old NDK apps.

This patch fixes the problem with symbol search order
for dlsym(RTLD_DEFAULT/RTLD_NEXT, .) by loading libraries
and ld_preloads in correct order.

This was in <stdlib.h> in older releases. It's no longer used, but we can
preserve backwards compatibility by making it a no-op.
