95d751feac libc: Add ftruncate64 and improve 64-bit parameter syscall handling.
This patch improves the handling of 64-bit parameters in syscalls on ARM.
The ARM EABI mandates that 64-bit quantities be passed in even/odd register
pairs, which requires special treatment.

This allows us to simplify our implementations of pread() and pwrite()
and remove the C stubs for pread64() and pwrite64().

Also add ftruncate64() to <unistd.h>

3cf53d1a78 Fixes for the ARM-specific bswap_16, bswap_32, and bswap_64.
1. Make the feature test work by excluding known-deficient processors, so
we don't have to maintain a complete list of all the processors that support
REV and REV16.

2. Don't abuse 'register' to get an effect similar to GCC's +l constraint,
but which was unnecessarily restrictive.

3. Fix __swap64md so _x isn't clobbered, breaking 64-bit swaps.

4. Make <byteswap.h> (which declars bswap_16 and friends) use <endian.h>
rather than <sys/endian.h>, so we get the machine-dependent implementations.

aa35095517 Use ARMv6 instruction for handling byte order
ARMv6 ISA has several instructions to handle data in different byte order.
For endian conversion (byte swapping) of single data words, it might be a
good idea to use the REV/REV16 instruction simply.

3b43f87d29 Allow dlclose() to properly call static C++ destructors.
With this patch _and_ an upcoming build/ patch, the destruction
of static C++ objects contained in shared libraries will happen
properly when dlclose() is called.

Note that this change introduces crtbegin_so.S and crtend_so.S which
are currently ignored by the build system.

+ move definition of __dso_handle to the right place
(before that, all shared libraries used the __dso_handle
global variable from the C library).

Note that we keep a 'weak' __dso_handle in aeabi.c to avoid
breaking the build until the next patch to build/core/combo/
appears. We will be able to remove that later.

+ move bionic/aeabi.c to arch-arm/bionic/ (its proper location)

NOTE: The NDK will need to be modified to enable this feature in
         the shared libraries that are generated through it.

e4fa46e75c Set SA_RESTORER in sigaction()
GDB looks for specific opcode sequences when trying to recognize a stack
frame as a signal trampoline.  The sequences it looks for happen to be those
created when SA_RESTORER is set, since glibc always sets a restorer.  This
patch does the same here, so that the trampolines can be correctly identified.

ba9c6f0989 bionic: pthread: use private futexes by default for mutexes and condvars
Private futexes are a recent kernel addition: faster futexes that cannot be
shared between processes. This patch uses them by default, unless the PROCESS_SHARED
attribute flag is used when creating a mutex and/or conditional variable.

Also introduces pthread_condattr_init/destroy/setpshared/getpshared.

fdc5c1f56f Re-enable ARMv7 memcpy implementation.
Do not submit this patch before the one that modifies the Android emulator to
work-around a weird ARMv7 emulation issue. This is done to temporarily re-allow
the -user builds needed for QA.

1e40783d9a Fix armv7-user builds by disabling the ARMv7-optimized memcpy.
This is required to work-around some corny bugs in ARMv7 emulation.

The emulation itself is required to run the dex pre-optimization pass
for -user builds.

ee223d02d9 NEON optimized memcpy.
372 MB/s for large transfers, 440 MB/s for smaller ones down to 1KB. 130 MB/s for very small transfers ( < 32 bytes )
Performance is similar with non-congruent buffers.

4a05d12cf5 Fix TLS access for ARMv6 and beyond.
For performance reasons, we don't call the kernel helper. Instead, we directly
access the TLS register on ARMv6 and higher. For ARMv5TE, keep using the hard-coded
address populated by the kernel on each task switch.

NOTE: Since we don't call the kernel helper, this must precisely match your
      kernel configuration. This is controlled by setting the ARCH_ARM_HAVE_TLS_REGISTER
      variable to 'true' in your board configuration file.

76ec6891e2 ARM architecture reference manuals for ARMv6 & ARMv7 state that the use of 'swp' instruction is deprecated
ARMv6 onwards. These architectures provide the load-linked, store-conditional pair of ldrex/strex whose use
is recommended in place of 'swp'. Also, the description of the 'swp' instruction in the ARMv6 reference
manual states that the swap operation does not include any memory barrier guarantees.This fix attempts to
address these issues by providing an atomic swap implementation using ldrex/strex under _ARM_HAVE_LDREX_STREX
macro.  This Fix is verified on ST Ericsson's U8500 platform and Submitted on behalf of a third-party:
Surinder-pal SINGH from STMicroelectronics.

03eabfe65e Fix the C library initialization to avoid calling static C++ constructors twice.
The problem was due to the fact that, in the case of dynamic executables,
the dynamic linker calls the DT_PREINIT_ARRAY, DT_INIT and DT_INIT_ARRAY
constructors when loading shared libraries and dynamic executables,
*before* calling the executable's entry point (i.e. arch-$ARCH/bionic/crtbegin_dynamic.c)
which in turns call __libc_init() in libc.so, as defined by bionic/libc_init_dynamic.c

The latter did call these constructors array again, mistakenly.

The patch also updates the documentation of many related functions.

Also adds a new section to linker/README.TXT explaining restrictions on
C library usage.

The patch has been tested on a Dream for stability issues with
proprietary blobs:

- H264 decoding works
- Camera + Video recording works
- GPS works
- Sensors work

The tests in system/extra/tests/bionic/libc/common/test_static_cpp_mutex.cpp has been
run and shows the static C++ constructor being called only once.
