- malloc: alignment might change in future versions
Paul Eggert: This follows up on a comment by Wilco Dijkstra; see: - support: Add support for starting and stopping nscd
Florian Weimer - SHARED-FILES: Update Unicode version to 17.0.0.
Carlos O'Donell: In commit 88dc93cb400b832d2478c6c70bc4cf8c5b37432d we updated to Unicode 17. - AArch64: Optimize memcpy for Kunpeng 950 processor
Weihong Ye: For copies ≤64 bytes, the implementation remains consistent with memcpy_sve. - support: Add support_spawn_wrap and related functionality
Florian Weimer: It allows us to write test cases in C that run tests with dynamic linker wrapping. The iconv test case was auto-generated. - manual: Document //TRANSLIT and //IGNORE support in iconv_open [BZ #3794]
Avinal Kumar: The //TRANSLIT and //IGNORE suffix supported by iconv_open was not documented in the glibc manual. - stdio-common: Assume support for 'long long'
Alejandro Colomar: GCC supports 'long long' since essentially forever. - dlfcn: Add dlinfo request type RTLD_DI_ORIGIN_PATH (bug #24298)
Arjun Shankar: The existing dlinfo request type RTLD_DI_ORIGIN used for querying the value of the '$ORIGIN' dynamic string token is prone to buffer overflows. This commit adds a new request type named RTLD_DI_ORIGIN_PATH that returns a pointer to the dynamic string token (i.e. - NEWS: add 2.44 section

- elf: Canonicalize $ORIGIN in an explicit ld.so invocation [BZ 25263]
Adhemerval Zanella: When an executable is invoked directly, we calculate $ORIGIN by calling readlink on /proc/self/exe, which the Linux kernel resolves to the target of any symlinks. - Linux: Add the pthread_gettid_np function (bug 27880)
Florian Weimer: Current Bionic has this function, with enhanced error checking (the undefined case terminates the process). - Add _FORTIFY_SOURCE support for inet_ntop
Frédéric Bérat: - Create the __inet_ntop_chk routine that verifies that the builtin size of the destination buffer is at least as big as the size given by the user. - Add _FORTIFY_SOURCE support for inet_pton
Aaron Merey: Add function __inet_pton_chk which calls __chk_fail when the size of argument dst is too small. - conform: Add initial support for C23.
Collin Funk: Hi Joseph, As we discussed, this patch just makes C23 include every check that is performed by C11. I tested the commit by adding the ISO23 Make and Python variables to be the same as ISO11. - elf: Extend glibc.rtld.execstack tunable to force executable stack (BZ 32653)
Adhemerval Zanella: From the bug report [1], multiple programs still require to dlopen shared libraries with either missing PT_GNU_STACK or with the executable bit set. - Implement C23 rsqrt
Joseph Myers: C23 adds various <math.h> function families originally defined in TS 18661-4. - S390: Add new s390 platform z17.
Stefan Liebler: The glibc-hwcaps subdirectories are extended by "z17". - Update syscall lists for Linux 6.14
Joseph Myers: Linux 6.14 has no new syscalls. - x86: Optimize xstate size calculation
Sunil K Pandey: Scan xstate IDs up to the maximum supported xstate ID.
