Clang issues a warning for double alias redirection, indicating that thei
original symbol is used even if a weak definition attempts to override it.
For instance, in the construction:
int __internal_impl (...) {}
weak_alias (__internal_impl, external_impl);
#if SOMETHING
weak_alias (external_impl, another_external_impl)
#endif
Clang warns that another_external_impl always resolves to __internal_impl,
even if external_impl is a weak reference. Using the internal symbol for
both aliases resolves this warning.
This issue also occurs with certain libc_hidden_def usage:
int __internal_impl (...) {}
weak_alias (__internal_impl, __internal_alias)
libc_hidden_weak (__internal_alias)
In this case, using a strong_alias is sufficient to avoid the warning
(since the alias is internal, there is no need to use a weak alias).
However, for the constructions like:
int __internal_impl (...) {}
weak_alias (__internal_impl, __internal_alias)
libc_hidden_def (__internal_alias)
weak_alias (__internal_impl, external_alias)
libc_hidden_def (external_alias)
Clang warns that the internal external_alias will always resolve to
__GI___internal_impl, even if a weak definition of __GI_internal_impl is
overridden. For this case, a new macro named static_weak_alias is used
to create a strong alias for SHARED, or a weak_alias otherwise.
With these changes, there is no need to check and enable the
-Wno-ignored-attributes suppression when using clang.
Checked with a build on affected ABIs, and a full check on aarch64,
armhf, i686, and x86_64.

C23 defines library macros __STDC_VERSION_<header>_H__ to indicate
that a header has support for new / changed features from C23. Now
that all the required library features are implemented in glibc,
define these macros. I'm not sure this is sufficiently much of a
user-visible feature to be worth a mention in NEWS.
Tested for x86_64.
There are various optional C23 features we don't yet have, of which I
might look at the Annex H ones (floating-point encoding conversion
functions and _Float16 functions) next.
* Optional time bases TIME_MONOTONIC, TIME_ACTIVE, TIME_THREAD_ACTIVE.
See
<https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2023-June/149264.html>
- we need to review / update that patch. (I think patch 2/2,
inventing new names for all the nonstandard CLOCK_* supported by the
Linux kernel, is rather more dubious.)
* Updating conform/ tests for C23.
* Defining the rounding mode macro FE_TONEARESTFROMZERO for RISC-V (as
far as I know, the only architecture supported by glibc that has
hardware support for this rounding mode for binary floating point)
and supporting it throughout glibc and its tests (especially the
string/numeric conversions in both directions that explicitly handle
each possible rounding mode, and various tests that do likewise).
* Annex H floating-point encoding conversion functions. (It's not
entirely clear which are optional even given support for Annex H;
there's some wording applied inconsistently about only being
required when non-arithmetic interchange formats are supported; see
the comments I raised on the WG14 reflector on 23 Oct 2025.)
* _Float16 functions (and other header and testcase support for this
type).
* Decimal floating-point support.
* Fully supporting __int128 and unsigned __int128 as integer types
wider than intmax_t, as permitted by C23. Would need doing in
coordination with GCC, see GCC bug 113887 for more discussion of
what's involved.

Use __thread variables directly instead. The macros do not save any

variable support.
Some of the __libc_tsd_* variables are referenced from assembler
files, so keep their names. Previously, <libc-tls.h> included
<tls.h>, which in turn included <errno.h>, so a few direct includes

POSIX.1-2024 (now official) specifies tm_gmtoff and tm_zone.
This is a good time to update the manual’s “Date and Time”
chapter so I went through it, fixed some outdated
stuff that had been in there for decades, and improved it to match
POSIX.1-2024 better and to clarify some implementation-defined
behavior. Glibc already conforms to POSIX.1-2024 in these matters, so
this is merely a documentation change.
* manual/examples/strftim.c: Use snprintf instead of now-deprecated
function asctime. Check for localtime failure. Simplify by using
puts instead of fputs. Prefer ‘buf, sizeof buf’ to less-obvious
‘buffer, SIZE’.
* manual/examples/timespec_subtract.c: Modernize to use struct
timespec not struct timeval, and rename from timeval_subtract.c.
All uses changed. Check for overflow. Do not check for negative
return value, which ought to be OK since negative time_t is OK.
Use GNU indenting style.
* manual/time.texi:
Document CLOCKS_PER_SEC, TIME_UTC, timespec_get, timespec_getres,
strftime_l.
Document the storage lifetime of tm_zone and of tzname.
Caution against use of tzname, timezone and daylight, saying that
these variables have unspecified values when TZ is geographic.
This is what glibc actually does (contrary to what the manual said
before this patch), and POSIX is planned to say the same thing
<https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1816>.
Also say that directly accessing the variables is not thread-safe.
Say that localtime_r and ctime_r don’t necessarily set time zone
state. Similarly, in the tzset documentation, say that it is called
by ctime, localtime, mktime, strftime, not that it is called by all
time conversion functions that depend on the time zone.
Say that tm_isdst is useful mostly just for mktime, and that
other uses should prefer tm_gmtoff and tm_zone instead.
Do not say that strftime ignores tm_gmtoff and tm_zone, because
it doesn’t do that.
Document what gmtime does to tm_gmtoff and tm_zone.
Say that the asctime, asctime_r, ctime, and ctime_r are now deprecated
and/or obsolescent, and that behavior is undefined if the year is <
1000 or > 9999. Document strftime before these now-obsolescent
functions, so that readers see the useful function first.
Coin the terms “geographical format” and “proleptic format” for the
two main formats of TZ settings, to simplify exposition. Use this
wording consistently.
Update top-level proleptic syntax to match POSIX.1-2024, which glibc
already implements. Document the angle-bracket quoted forms of time
zone abbreviations in proleptic TZ. Say that time zone abbreviations
can contain only ASCII alphanumerics, ‘+’, and ‘-’.
Document what happens if the proleptic form specifies a DST
abbreviation and offset but omits the rules. POSIX says this is
implementation-defined so we need to document it. Although this
documentation mentions ‘posixrules’ tersely, we need to rethink
‘posixrules’ since I think it stops working after 2038.
Clarify wording about TZ settings beginning with ‘;’.
Say that timegm is in ISO C (as of C23).
Say that POSIX.1-2024 removed gettimeofday.
Say that tm_gmtoff and tm_zone are extensions to ISO C, which is
clearer than saying they are invisible in a struct ISO C enviroment,
and gives us more wiggle room if we want to make them visible in
strict ISO C, something that ISO C allows.
Drop mention of old standards like POSIX.1c and POSIX.2-1992 in the
text when the history is so old that it’s no longer useful in a
general-purpose manual.
Define Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), time zone, time zone ruleset,
and POSIX Epoch, and use these phrases more consistently.
Improve TZ examples to show more variety, and to reflect current
practice and timestamps. Remove obsolete example about Argentina.
Add an example for Ireland.
Don’t rely on GCC extensions when explaining ctime_r.
Do not say that difftime produces the mathematically correct result,
since it might be inexact.
For clock_t don’t say “as in the example above” when there is no
such example, and don’t say that casting to double works “properly
and consistently no matter what”, as it suffers from rounding and
overflow.
Don’t say broken-down time is not useful for calculations; it’s
merely painful.
Say that UTC is not defined before 1960.
Rename Time Zone Functions to Time Zone State. All uses changed.
Update Internet RFC 822 → 5322, 1305 → 5905. Drop specific years of
ISO 8601 as they don’t matter.
Minor style changes: @code{"..."} → @t{"..."} to avoid overquoting in
info files, @code → @env for environment variables, Daylight Saving
Time → daylight saving time, white space → whitespace, prime meridian
→ Prime Meridian.

difftime can signal an inexact conversion when converting to double,
so it should not be marked as pure or nothrow (BZ 31808).
Although we could do something more complicated, in which difftime is
plain on modern platforms but const and nothrow on obsolescent
platforms with 32-bit time_t, it hardly seems worth the trouble.
difftime is used so rarely that it's not worth taking pains to
optimize calls to it on obsolescent platforms.

The FSF's Licensing and Compliance Lab noted a discrepancy in the

When timespect_get.c was impelemented the license did not include
the standard ", or (at your option) any later version." text.

It was raised on libc-help [1] that some Linux kernel interfaces expect
the libc to define __USE_TIME_BITS64 to indicate the time_t size for the
kABI. Different than defined by the initial y2038 design document [2],
the __USE_TIME_BITS64 is only defined for ABIs that support more than
one time_t size (by defining the _TIME_BITS for each module).
The 64 bit time_t redirects are now enabled using a different internal
define (__USE_TIME64_REDIRECTS). There is no expected change in semantic
or code generation.

WG14 decided to use the name C23 as the informal name of the next
revision of the C standard (notwithstanding the publication date in
2024). Update references to C2X in glibc to use the C23 name.
This is intended to update everything *except* where it involves
renaming files (the changes involving renaming tests are intended to
be done separately). In the case of the _ISOC2X_SOURCE feature test
macro - the only user-visible interface involved - support for that
macro is kept for backwards compatibility, while adding
_ISOC23_SOURCE.

This patch syncs mktime.c from Gnulib, fixing a

* time/mktime.c (__mktime_internal): Be more generous about

back to a one-hour DST difference if we find no nearby DST that is
unusual. This fixes a problem where "1986-04-28 00:00 EDT" was
rejected when TZ="America/Indianapolis" because the nearest DST
timestamp occurred in 1970, a temporal distance too great for the
old heuristic. This also also narrows the search a bit, which

When using a timezone file with a truncated starting time,
generated by the zic in IANA tzcode-2021d a.k.a. tzlib-2021d
(also in tzlib-2021e; current as of this writing), glibc
asserts in __tzfile_read (on e.g. tzset() for this file) and
you may find lines matching "tzfile.c:435: __tzfile_read:
Assertion `num_types == 1' failed" in your syslog.
One example of such a file 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).
This is valid and expected already in the published RFC8536, and
not even frowned upon: "Local time for timestamps before the
first transition is specified by the first time type (time type
0)" ... "every nonzero local time type index SHOULD appear at
least once in the transition type array". Note the "nonzero ...
index". Until the 2021d zic, index 0 has been shared by the
first valid transition but with 2021d it's separate, set apart
as a placeholder and only "implicitly" indexed. (A draft update
of the RFC mandates that the entry at index 0 is a placeholder
in this case, hence can no longer be shared.)
* time/tzfile.c (__tzfile_read): Don't assert when no transitions
are found.
