The main drive is to optimize the internal usage and required size
when sigset_t is embedded in other data structures. On Linux, the
current supported signal set requires up to 8 bytes (16 on mips),
was lower than the user defined sigset_t (128 bytes).
A new internal type internal_sigset_t is added, along with the
functions to operate on it similar to the ones for sigset_t. The
internal-signals.h is also refactored to remove unused functions
Besides small stack usage on some functions (posix_spawn, abort)

The 404656009b reversion did not setup the atomic loop to set the
cancel bits correctly. The fix is essentially what pthread_cancel
did prior 26cfbb7162.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and aarch64-linux-gnu.
Some Linux interfaces never restart after being interrupted by a signal
handler, regardless of the use of SA_RESTART [1]. It means that for
pthread cancellation, if the target thread disables cancellation with
pthread_setcancelstate and calls such interfaces (like poll or select),
it should not see spurious EINTR failures due the internal SIGCANCEL.
However recent changes made pthread_cancel to always sent the internal
signal, regardless of the target thread cancellation status or type.
To fix it, the previous semantic is restored, where the cancel signal
is only sent if the target thread has cancelation enabled in
asynchronous mode.
The cancel state and cancel type is moved back to cancelhandling
and atomic operation are used to synchronize between threads. The
patch essentially revert the following commits:
8c1c0aae20 nptl: Move cancel type out of cancelhandling
2b51742531 nptl: Move cancel state out of cancelhandling
26cfbb7162 nptl: Remove CANCELING_BITMASK
However I changed the atomic operation to follow the internal C11
semantic and removed the MACRO usage, it simplifies a bit the
resulting code (and removes another usage of the old atomic macros).

If the build itself is run in a container, we may not be able to
fully set up a nested container for test-container testing.
Notably is the mounting of /proc, since it's critical that it

thus cannot be bind mounted from outside the container like other

This patch defaults to using the parent's PID namespace instead of
creating a new one, as this is more likely to be allowed.

_STACK_GROWS_DOWN is defined to 0 when the stack grows up. The

As part of the fix for bug 12889, signals are blocked during
thread exit, so that application code cannot run on the thread that
is about to exit. This would cause problems if the application
expected signals to be delivered after the signal handler revealed
the thread to still exist, despite pthread_kill can no longer be used
to send signals to it. However, glibc internally uses the SIGSETXID
signal in a way that is incompatible with signal blocking, due to the
way the setxid handshake delays thread exit until the setxid operation
has completed. With a blocked SIGSETXID, the handshake can never
complete, causing a deadlock.
As a band-aid, restore the previous handshake protocol by not blocking
SIGSETXID during thread exit.

The clone3 system call (since Linux 5.3) provides a superset of the
functionality of clone and clone2. It also provides a number of API
improvements, including the ability to specify the size of the child's
stack area which can be used by kernel to compute the shadow stack size
when allocating the shadow stack. Add:
extern int __clone_internal (struct clone_args *__cl_args,
int (*__func) (void *__arg), void *__arg);

1. Simplify stack management for thread creation by passing both stack
base and size to create_thread.
2. Consolidate clone vs clone2 differences into a single file.
3. Call __clone3 if HAVE_CLONE3_WAPPER is defined. If __clone3 returns
-1 with ENOSYS, fall back to clone or clone2.
4. Use only __clone_internal to clone a thread. Since the stack size
argument for create_thread is now unconditional, always pass stack size

Linux sandbox: return ENOSYS for clone3
Because clone3 uses a pointer argument rather than a flags argument, we
cannot examine the contents with seccomp, which is essential to
preventing sandboxed processes from starting other processes. So, we
won't be able to support clone3 in Chromium. This CL modifies the
BPF policy to return ENOSYS for clone3 so glibc always uses the fallback
