-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2010-4159 2010-03-11 07:01:58 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : glibc Product : Fedora 13 Version : 2.11.90 Release : 15 URL : http://sources.redhat.com/glibc/ Summary : The GNU libc libraries Description : The glibc package contains standard libraries which are used by multiple programs on the system. In order to save disk space and memory, as well as to make upgrading easier, common system code is kept in one place and shared between programs. This particular package contains the most important sets of shared libraries: the standard C library and the standard math library. Without these two libraries, a Linux system will not function. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: - sparc64: Fix handling of R_SPARC_TLS_LE_* relocations (#571551) - Handle ext4 and logfs in statvfs functions - Fix setxid race with thread creation - Pass -mtune=i686 to assembler when compiling for i686 - Fix R_X86_64_PC32 overflow detection - Fix msgrcv on sparc64 - Fix unwind info in x86 strcmp-sse4.S (BZ#11332) - sparc: Add multiarch support for memset/bzero/memcpy - Remove directories owned by filesystem (#569414) - Add %%ghost /etc/gai.conf to glibc- common (#567748) - Fix SSSE3 memcpy (#556584) - Use CPUID_OFFSET instead of FEATURE_OFFSET - Add 32bit memcmp/strcmp/strncmp optimized for SSSE3/SSS4.2 - Fix file descriotor leak in nftw with FTW_CHDIR (BZ#11271) - Add Sparc STT_GNU_IFUNC support - Add power7-optimized classification functions - Reapply "Optimize 32bit memset/memcpy with SSE2/SSSE3." - Use unsigned comparison in sse memcpy/memset -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #571551 - SIGBUS in reloc code on SPARC https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=571551 [ 2 ] Bug #569414 - Wrong directory ownership https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=569414 [ 3 ] Bug #567748 - /etc/gai.conf is not owned by glibc https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=567748 [ 4 ] Bug #556584 - crash when running createrepo due to glibc's malloc checking https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=556584 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
