The _REENT_GLOBAL_STDIO_STREAMS was introduced by commit
668a4c8722090fffd10869dbb15b879651c1370d in 2017. Since then it was enabled by
default for RTEMS. Recently, the option was enabled for Cygwin which
previously used an alternative implementation to use global stdio streams.
In Newlib, the stdio streams are defined to thread-specific pointers
_reent::_stdin, _reent::_stdout and _reent::_stderr. If the option is disabled
(the default for most systems), then these pointers are initialized to
thread-specific FILE objects which use file descriptors 0, 1, and 2,
respectively. There are at least three problems with this:
(1) The thread-specific FILE objects are closed by _reclaim_reent(). This
leads to problems with language run-time libraries that provide wrappers to
the C/POSIX stdio streams (for example C++ and Ada), since they use the
thread-specific FILE objects of the initialization thread. In case the
initialization thread is deleted, then they use freed memory.
(2) Since thread-specific FILE objects are used with a common output device via
file descriptors 0, 1 and 2, the locking at FILE object level cannot ensure
atomicity of the output, e.g. a call to printf().
(3) There are resource managment issues, see:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/newlib/2022/019558.htmlhttps://bugs.linaro.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5841
This patch enables the _REENT_GLOBAL_STDIO_STREAMS behaviour for all Newlib
configurations and removes the option. This removes a couple of #ifdef blocks.
For _REENT_GLOBAL_STDIO_STREAMS, lock/unlock all FILE objects. In the
repository, this function is only used by Cygwin during process forks. Since
Cygwin enabled _REENT_GLOBAL_STDIO_STREAMS recently, without this fix no FILE
object at all was locked.
Do not initialize __sglue with the FILE objects of _GLOBAL_REENT to avoid a
double use in the !_REENT_SMALL and !_REENT_GLOBAL_STDIO_STREAMS configurations
which didn't use a thread-specific reentrancy structure.
Remove "32" or "64" from each of the following names: acl32,
aclcheck32, aclfrommode32, aclfrompbits32, aclfromtext32, aclsort32,
acltomode32, acltopbits32, acltotext32, facl32, fchown32, fcntl64,
fstat64, _fstat64, _fstat64_r, ftruncate64, getgid32, getgrent32,
getgrgid32, getgrnam32, getgroups32, getpwuid32, getpwuid_r32,
getuid32, getuid32, initgroups32, lseek64, lstat64, mknod32, mmap64,
setegid32, seteuid32, setgid32, setgroups32, setregid32, setreuid32,
setuid32, stat64, _stat64_r, truncate64.
Remove prototypes and macro definitions of these names.
Remove "#ifndef __INSIDE_CYGWIN__" from some headers so that the new
names will be available when compiling Cygwin.
Remove aliases that are no longer needed.
Include <unistd.h> in fhandler_clipboard.cc for the declarations of
geteuid and getegid.
The __sFILE::_lock member is present if __SINGLE_THREAD__ is not defined. In
this case, it is initialized in __sfp(). It is a bug to do it sometimes also
in std().
The compiler warns the double parentheses are unnecessary in some
target, and cause fail cases when doing some testcases in regression.

Remove unneccesary parenthesis around declarator
Thanks for Sebastian Huber's remind!
For the exit processing only members of _GLOBAL_REENT were used by default. If
the _REENT_GLOBAL_ATEXIT option was enabled, then the data structures were
provided through dedicated global objects. Make this option the default.
Remove the option. Rename struct _reent members _atexit and _atexit0 to
_reserved_6 and _reserved_7, respectively. Provide them only if
_REENT_BACKWARD_BINARY_COMPAT is defined.
Rename struct _reent::_new::_unused members _nextf and _nmalloc to _reserved_3
and _reserved_4, respectively. Rename struct _reent::_new member _unused to
_reserved_5. Provide them only if _REENT_BACKWARD_BINARY_COMPAT is defined.
Remove unused _N_LISTS define.
Add the --enable-newlib-reent-binary-compat configure option. This option is
disabled by default. If enabled, then unused members in struct _reent are
preserved to maintain the structure layout.
Make sure that the stdio exit handler is set in all stdio initialization paths.
The bug was introduced by commit 26747c47bc0a1137e02e0377306d721cc3478855.
Added a new global __sglue object for all configurations.
Decouples the global file object list from the _GLOBAL_REENT
structure by using this new object instead of the __sglue member
of _GLOBAL_REENT in __sfp() and _fwalk_sglue().
Replaced _fwalk_reent() with _fwalk_sglue(). The change adds an
extra __sglue object as a parameter, which will allow the passing
of a global __sglue object separate from the __sglue member of
struct _reent. The global __sglue object will be added in a
follow-on patch.
Define the configuration-dependent constant CLEANUP_FILE for use in
cleanup_stdio(). This will reduce duplicate code during the addition
of a dedicated stdio atexit handler in a follow-on patch.
Moved last remaining __sglue initializations from __sinit() to
__sfp(). The move better encapsulates access to __sglue and
facilitates its decoupling from struct _reent in a follow-on patch.
Remove __sinit_lock_acquire() and __sinit_lock_release(). Replace these with
__sfp_lock_acquire() and __sfp_lock_release(), respectively. This eliminates a
potential deadlock issue between __sinit() and __sfp(). Remove now unused
__sinit_recursive_mutex and __lock___sinit_recursive_mutex.
Added _REENT_INIT_SGLUE and _REENT_INIT_SGLUE_ZEROED macros
to initialize __sglue member of struct _reent. This allows
further simplification of __sinit() and facilitates the removal
of __sglue as a member of struct _reent for certain configurations
in a follow-on patch.
Removed duplicate sglue initializations from __sinit(). These
are already initialized in the _REENT_INIT macro in sys/reent.h.
This simplification enables the reduction of _GLOBAL_REENT
dependency in a follow-on patch.

Use a separate namespace for chaper ids, to avoid collision between the

Unless make is invoked with V=1, have xmlto pass the parameter

output from the manpages stylesheet.
(This doesn't quite do what it says: The output is not silenced if V has

Simplify rules for creating docbook XML used to create manpages:
Updating the output using move-if-change and then unconditionally

Remove the pointer indirection through the read-only _global_impure_ptr and
directly use a externally visible _impure_data object of type struct _reent.
This enables the static initialization of global data structures in a follow up
patch. In addition, we get rid of a machine-specific file.
By including sys/_stdint.h, all types from stdint.h are
exposed even if stdint.h isn't pulled in explicitely. Include
<machine/_default_types.h instead. Fix up newlib and Cygwin
files which rely on stdint.h types, too.
