timezone: sync to TZDB 2024a

2024-04-07T20:35:48Z

Sync tzselect, zdump, zic to TZDB 2024a. This patch incorporates the following TZDB source code changes, listed roughly in descending order of importance. zic now supports links to links, needed for future tzdata zic now defaults to '-b slim' zic now updates output files atomically zic has new options -R, -l -, -p - zic -r now uses -00 for unspecified timestamps zdump now uses [lo,hi) for both -c and -t Fix several integer overflow bugs zic now checks input bytes more carefully Simplify and fix new TZDIR setup Default time_t to 64 bits on glibc 2.34+ 32-bit zic now generates TZ strings that conform to POSIX when all-year DST zic -v now shows extreme-int tm_year transitions Fix zic bug in last time type of Asia/Gaza etc. Fix zic bug with Palestine after 2075 Fix bug uncovered by recent change to Iran history Fix 'zic -b fat' bug with Port Moresby 32-bit data Fix zic bug with -r @X where X is deduced from TZ Fix bug with zic -r cutoff before 1st transition Fix leap second expiry and truncation Fix zic bug on Linux 2.6.16 and 2.6.17 Fix bug with 'zic -d /a/b/c' if /a is unwriteable Don't mistruncate TZif files at leap seconds Fix zdump undefined behavior if !USE_LTZ zdump -v reports localtime+gmtime failures better Fix zdump diagnostic for missing timezone Don't assume nonempty argv Port better to C23 Do not assume negative >> behavior I18nize zdump a bit better Port zdump to right_only installations New tzselect menu option 'now' tzselect can now use current time to help choose Improve tzselect behavior for Turkey etc. tzselect: do not create temporary files tzselect: work around mawk bug with {2,} tzselect: Port to POSIX awk, which prohibits -v newlines Do not use empty RE in tzselect Don't set TZ in tzselect Avoid sed, expr in tzselect tzselect: Fix problems with spaces in TZDIR Improve tzselect diagnostics Remove zic workaround for Qt bug 53071 Remove zic support for "min" in Rule lines Remove zic support for zic -y, Rule TYPEs, pacificnew Remove tzselect workaround for Bash 1.14.7 bug * SHARED-FILES: Update to match current sync. * config.h.in (HAVE_STRERROR): Remove; no longer needed. * timezone/Makefile ($(objpfx)zic.o): Depend on tzdir.h. ($(objpfx)tzdir.h): New rule to build a placeholder. * timezone/private.h, timezone/tzfile.h, timezone/version: * timezone/zdump.c, timezone/zic.c: Copy verbatim from TZDB 2024a.

Call "CST" a time zone abbreviation, not a name

2023-06-22T20:49:09Z

In documentation, call strings like "CST" time zone abbreviations, not time zone names. This terminology is more precise, and is what tzdb uses. A string like "CST" is ambiguous and does not fully name a time zone.

time: Set daylight to 1 for matching DST/offset change (bug 29951)

2023-01-05T17:22:55Z

The daylight variable is supposed to be set to 1 if DST is ever in use for the current time zone. But __tzfile_read used to do this: __daylight = rule_stdoff != rule_dstoff; This check can fail to set __daylight to 1 if the DST and non-DST offsets happen to be the same.

timezone: Fix tst-bz28707 Makefile rule

2022-01-12T13:30:10Z

The $(testdata)/XT5 rule is ambiguous and it may not be correct evaluated.

Update copyright dates with scripts/update-copyrights

2022-01-01T19:40:24Z

I used these shell commands: ../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright (cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]") and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning: copyright statement not found" for each of 7061 files FOO. I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h, support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not. remote: *** 912-#endif remote: *** 913: remote: *** 914- remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found ... remote: *** error: sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/statx_cp.c: trailing lines

timezone: test-case for BZ #28707

2021-12-30T11:11:19Z

This test-case is the tzfile for Asuncion generated by tzlib-2021e as follows, using the tzlib-2021e zic: "zic -d DEST -r @1546300800 -L /dev/null -b slim SOURCE/southamerica". Note that in its type 2 header, it has two entries in its "time-types" array (types), but only one entry in its "transition types" array (type_idxs). * timezone/Makefile, timezone/tst-pr28707.c, timezone/testdata/gen-XT5.sh: New test.

tst-tzset: output reason when creating 4GiB file fails

2021-11-12T23:08:47Z

Currently, if the temporary file creation fails the create_tz_file function returns NULL. The NULL pointer is then passed to setenv which causes a SIGSEGV. Rather than failing with a SIGSEGV print a warning and exit.

Remove "Contributed by" lines

2021-09-03T16:36:44Z

We stopped adding "Contributed by" or similar lines in sources in 2012 in favour of git logs and keeping the Contributors section of the glibc manual up to date. Removing these lines makes the license header a bit more consistent across files and also removes the possibility of error in attribution when license blocks or files are copied across since the contributed-by lines don't actually reflect reality in those cases. Move all "Contributed by" and similar lines (Written by, Test by, etc.) into a new file CONTRIBUTED-BY to retain record of these contributions. These contributors are also mentioned in manual/contrib.texi, so we just maintain this additional record as a courtesy to the earlier developers. The following scripts were used to filter a list of files to edit in place and to clean up the CONTRIBUTED-BY file respectively. These were not added to the glibc sources because they're not expected to be of any use in future given that this is a one time task: https://gist.github.com/siddhesh/b5ecac94eabfd72ed2916d6d8157e7dc https://gist.github.com/siddhesh/15ea1f5e435ace9774f485030695ee02 Reviewed-by: Carlos O'Donell
