Remove bits/string.h.
These machine-dependent inline string functions have never been on by
default, and even if they were a good idea at the time they were
introduced, they haven't really been touched in ten to fifteen years
and probably aren't a good idea on current-gen processors. Current
thinking is that this class of optimization is best left to the
compiler.
* bits/string.h, string/bits/string.h
* sysdeps/aarch64/bits/string.h
* sysdeps/m68k/m680x0/m68020/bits/string.h
* sysdeps/s390/bits/string.h, sysdeps/sparc/bits/string.h
* sysdeps/x86/bits/string.h: Delete file.
* string/string.h: Don't include bits/string.h.
* string/bits/string3.h: Rename to bits/string_fortified.h.
No need to undef various symbols that the removed headers
might have defined as macros.
* string/Makefile (headers): Remove bits/string.h, change
bits/string3.h to bits/string_fortified.h.
* string/string-inlines.c: Update commentary. Remove definitions
of various macros that nothing looks at anymore. Don't directly
include bits/string.h. Set _STRING_INLINE_unaligned here, based on
compiler-predefined macros.
* string/strncat.c: If STRNCAT is not defined, or STRNCAT_PRIMARY
_is_ defined, provide internal hidden alias __strncat.
* include/string.h: Declare internal hidden alias __strncat.
Only forward __stpcpy to __builtin_stpcpy if __NO_STRING_INLINES is
not defined.
* include/bits/string3.h: Rename to bits/string_fortified.h,
update to match above.
* sysdeps/i386/string-inlines.c: Define compat symbols for
everything formerly defined by sysdeps/x86/bits/string.h.
Make existing definitions into compat symbols as well.
Remove some no-longer-necessary messing around with macros.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/power4/multiarch/mempcpy.c
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/multiarch/mempcpy.c
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/multiarch/stpcpy.c
* sysdeps/s390/multiarch/mempcpy.c
No need to define _HAVE_STRING_ARCH_mempcpy.
Do define __NO_STRING_INLINES and NO_MEMPCPY_STPCPY_REDIRECT.
* sysdeps/i386/i686/multiarch/strncat-c.c
* sysdeps/s390/multiarch/strncat-c.c
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strncat-c.c
Define STRNCAT_PRIMARY. Don't change definition of libc_hidden_def.
