Fix gethostbyaddr in6addr_any, in6addr_loopback namespace (bug 18532).
gethostbyaddr brings in references to in6addr_any and thereby
in6addr_loopback, which aren't in all the standards containing
gethostbyaddr (gethostbyaddr is in XPG4 and UNIX98, in6addr_any and
in6addr_loopback are new in POSIX.1:2001). This patch fixes this by
making those symbols into weak aliases (safe in this case, unlike for
most data symbols, because these data symbols are const).
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and comparison of disassembly of
installed stripped shared libraries). Disassembly is unchanged for
x86_64; for x86, I see some changes of stack offsets, but no other
code generation changes or code size differences.
[BZ #18532]
* inet/in6_addr.c (in6addr_any): Rename to __in6addr_any and
define as weak alias of __in6addr_any. Use libc_hidden_data_weak.
(in6addr_loopback): Rename to __in6addr_loopback and define as
weak alias of __in6addr_loopback. Use libc_hidden_data_weak.
* include/netinet/in.h (__in6addr_loopback): Declare. Use
libc_hidden_proto.
(__in6addr_any): Likewise.
* inet/gethstbyad_r.c (PREPROCESS): Use __in6addr_any instead of
in6addr_any.
* conform/Makefile (test-xfail-XPG4/netdb.h/linknamespace): Remove
variable.
(test-xfail-UNIX98/netdb.h/linknamespace): Likewise.
