This patch defines a few new macros that can be used to control the
visibility of symbols exported by the C library:
- ENTRY_PRIVATE() can be used in assembly sources to indicate
that an assembler function should have "hidden" visibility, i.e.
will never be exported by the C library's shared library.
This is the equivalent of using __LIBC_HIDDEN__ for a C function,
but ENTRY_PRIVATE() works like ENTRY(), and must be used with
END() to tag the end of the function.
- __LIBC_ABI_PUBLIC__ can be used to tag a C functions as being
part of the C library's public ABI. This is important for a
few functions that must be exposed by the NDK to maintain
binary compatibility.
Once a symbol has been tagged with this macro, it shall
*never* be removed from the library, even if it becomes
directly unused due to implementation changes
(e.g. __is_threaded).
- __LIBC_ABI_PRIVATE__ can be used for C functions that should
always be exported by the C library because they are used by
other libraries in the platform, but should not be exposed
by the NDK. It is possible to remove such symbols from the
implementation if all callers are also modified.
+ Add missing END() assembly macro for x86

We don't have a toolchain anymore, we don't have working original
kernel headers, and nobody is maintaining this so there is really
no point in keeping this here. Details of the patch:
- removed code paths from Android.mk files related to the SuperH
architecture ("sh")
- removed libc/arch-sh, linker/arch-sh, libc/kernel/arch-sh
- simplified libc/SYSCALLS.TXT
- simplified the scripts in libc/tools/ and libc/kernel/tools

The flag to avoid calling ELF constructors recursively (in the case
of recursive .so dependencies) was being set after the dangerous
recursive constructor call had already been made.
This fixes the libc's debug malloc implementation.

This optimization improves the performance of recursive locks
drastically. When running the thread_stress program on a Xoom,
the total time to perform all operations goes from 1500 ms to
500 ms on average after this change is pushed to the device.

Write a message to the log file if the signal handler is not able
to connect to debuggerd. This is especially handy if the failure
was caused by running out of file descriptors, since there's some
chance that the lack of fds relates to the crash.
Sample:
F libc : Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV) at 0xdeadbaad (code=1)
F libc : Unable to open connection to debuggerd: Too many open files

32 enteries perhaps was ok for per-process caching with ipv4 only
but adding ipv6 records makes it effectively 16 entries and making
it system wide makes is pretty useless. Increasing to 640 entries.

The x86 asm headers define __u64 regardless of __STRICT_ANSI__.
The linux/videodev2.h header requires __u64 to be defined, thus
this fixes compiling with -std=c99 when including the
linux/videodev2.h header.
In glibc, the asm/types.h header defines __u64 regardless of
__STRICT_ANSI__.
This is the change for the generated arch-arm/asm/types.h
header, as produced by the update_all.py script (without all
the other unrelated changes that the script produces).
FWIW, the same issue also is present in
arch-sh/asm/types.h, but there are no source headers for
arch-sh in external/kernel-headers (and regenerating the
headers simply removes that file).

This fixes a bug that was introduced in the latest pthread optimization.
It happens when a recursive lock is contented by several threads. The main
issue was that the atomic counter increment in _recursive_increment() could
be annihilated by a non-conditional write in pthread_mutex_lock() used to
update the value's lower bits to indicate contention.
This patch re-introduces the use of the global recursive lock in
_recursive_increment(). This will hit performance, but a future patch
will be provided to remove it from the source code.

The Linux kernel provides an AT_SECURE auxv flag to inform userspace
whether or not a security transition has occurred. This is more reliable
than directly checking the uid/gid against the euid/egid, because it covers
not only setuid/setgid but also file capabilities, SELinux, and AppArmor
security transitions. It is also a more efficient test since it does
not require any additional system calls.

The xattr system calls are required for the SE Android userspace in
order to get and set file security contexts. In particular, libselinux
requires these calls.

There are three changes of note - most urgently, Cuba (America/Havana)
has extended summer time by two weeks, now to end on Nov 13, rather than
the (already past) Oct 30. Second, the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic
(Europe/Tiraspol) decided not to split from the rest of Moldova after
all, and consequently that zone has been removed (again) and reinstated
in the "backward" file as a link to Europe/Chisinau. And third, the
end date for Fiji's summer time this summer was moved forward from the
earlier planned Feb 26, to Jan 22.
Apart from that, Moldova (MD) returns to a single entry in zone.tab
(and the incorrect syntax that was in the 2011m version of that file
is so fixed - it would have been fixed in a different way had this
change not happened - that's the "missing" sccs version id).
