- Update to glibc 2.33
* The dynamic linker accepts the --list-tunables argument which prints
all the supported tunables.
* The dynamic linker accepts the --argv0 argument and provides opportunity
to change argv[0] string.
* The dynamic linker loads optimized implementations of shared objects
from subdirectories under the glibc-hwcaps directory on the library
search path if the system's capabilities meet the requirements for
that subdirectory.
* The new --help option of the dynamic linker provides usage and
information and library search path diagnostics.
* The mallinfo2 function is added to report statistics as per mallinfo,
but with larger field widths to accurately report values that are
larger than fit in an integer.
* Add <sys/platform/x86.h> to provide query macros for x86 CPU features.
* A new fortification level _FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 is available.
* The mallinfo function is marked deprecated.
* When dlopen is used in statically linked programs, alternative library
implementations from HWCAP subdirectories are no longer loaded.
* The deprecated <sys/vtimes.h> header and the function vtimes have been
removed.
* On s390(x), the type float_t is now derived from the macro
__FLT_EVAL_METHOD__ that is defined by the compiler, instead of being
hardcoded to double.
* A future version of glibc will stop loading shared objects from the
"tls" subdirectories on the library search path, the subdirectory that
corresponds to the AT_PLATFORM system name, and also stop employing
the legacy AT_HWCAP search mechanism.
* CVE-2021-3326: An assertion failure during conversion from the
ISO-20220-JP-3 character set using the iconv function has been fixed.

in glibc when it is built with a GCC that is configured with
--enable-standard-branch-protection (or if -mbranch-protection=standard
flag is passed when building both GCC target libraries and glibc,
in either case a custom GCC is needed)

- Update to glibc 2.31
* The GNU C Library now supports a feature test macro _ISOC2X_SOURCE to
enable features from the draft ISO C2X standard

have corresponding type-generic macros in <tgmath.h>
* The function pthread_clockjoin_np has been added, enabling join with a
terminated thread with a specific clock
* New locale added: mnw_MM (Mon language spoken in Myanmar).
* The DNS stub resolver will optionally send the AD (authenticated data) bit
in queries if the trust-ad option is set via the options directive in
/etc/resolv.conf (or if RES_TRUSTAD is set in _res.options)
* The totalorder and totalordermag functions, and the corresponding
functions for other floating-point types, now take pointer arguments to
avoid signaling NaNs possibly being converted to quiet NaNs in argument
passing
* The obsolete function stime is no longer available to newly linked
binaries, and its declaration has been removed from <time.h>
* The gettimeofday function no longer reports information about a
system-wide time zone
* If a lazy binding failure happens during dlopen, during the execution of
an ELF constructor, the process is now terminated

pthread_rwlock_clockrdlock, pthread_rwlock_clockwrlock and sem_clockwait
functions
* On AArch64 the GNU IFUNC resolver call ABI changed
* The copy_file_range function fails with ENOSYS if the kernel does not
support the system call of the same name
* The functions clock_gettime, clock_getres, clock_settime,
clock_getcpuclockid, clock_nanosleep were removed from the librt library
