glibc-2.11-r1 has been in the tree for months with few known regressions, and glibc-2.11.1 should have addressed all of those. for now, lets push the blocking packages into stable so that when the ~30 day mark comes around, we can move glibc-2.11.1 into stable.
Testing on x86: I have been using this version (+ new binutils) for more than a week, rebuilding serveral things and encountered no issues.
AMD64: This version of glibc (including the new binutils) has been running on 4 machines for 3 weeks without any problems. One of those machines is actually rebuilding world due to testing gcc-4.4.2 (bug #302468) and so far no problems. emerge --info: Portage 2.1.8.3 (default/linux/amd64/10.0/no-multilib, gcc-4.3.4, glibc-2.11.1-r0, 2.6.31-gentoo-r6 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: Linux-2.6.31-gentoo-r6-x86_64-AMD_Athlon-tm-_64_X2_Dual_Core_Processor_5200+-with-gentoo-1.12.13 Timestamp of tree: Sun, 23 May 2010 01:15:01 +0000 app-shells/bash: 4.0_p37 dev-java/java-config: 2.1.10 dev-lang/python: 2.6.5-r2 dev-util/cmake: 2.6.4-r3 sys-apps/baselayout: 1.12.13 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.6-r2 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.63-r1 sys-devel/automake: 1.7.9-r1, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10.3, 1.11.1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.20.1 sys-devel/gcc: 4.3.4 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.1 sys-devel/libtool: 2.2.6b virtual/os-headers: 2.6.30-r1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" ACCEPT_LICENSE="* -@EULA dlj-1.1" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=k8 -O2 -pipe" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /var/bind" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/eselect/postgresql /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/php/apache2-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cgi-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cli-php5/ext-active/ /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/sandbox.d /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-march=k8 -O2 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="assume-digests collision-protect distlocks fixpackages multilib-strict news parallel-fetch protect-owned sandbox sfperms strict test unmerge-logs unmerge-orphans userfetch userpriv" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.tiscali.nl/ ftp://gentoo.tiscali.nl/pub/mirror/gentoo/ " LANG="en_US.utf8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1" LINGUAS="en" MAKEOPTS="-j3" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT="/" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/overlay" SYNC="rsync://rsync.tiscali.nl/gentoo-portage" USE="3dnow acl amd64 apache2 bash-completion bzip bzip2 caps cli cracklib crypt cue cupsddk curl daemon dri exif fastcgi flac ftp gdbm git graphviz gzip hpijs iconv icu id3 jabber jpeg json lame ldap libsamplerate mmx mod_muc modules mp3 mudflap mysql mysqli ncurses new-hpcups nls nptl nptlonly ogg openmp pcre php png posix postgres pppd readline reflection ruby sasl session simplexml spl sse sse2 ssl svg sysfs syslog tcpd threads truetype unicode unzip vorbis web webdav xml xmlreader xmlrpc xmlwriter xorg zip zlib" ALSA_CARDS="ali5451 als4000 atiixp atiixp-modem bt87x ca0106 cmipci emu10k1x ens1370 ens1371 es1938 es1968 fm801 hda-intel intel8x0 intel8x0m maestro3 trident usb-audio via82xx via82xx-modem ymfpci" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mmap_emul mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic authn_alias authn_anon authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache dav dav_fs dav_lock deflate dir disk_cache env expires ext_filter file_cache filter headers include info log_config logio mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation rewrite setenvif speling status unique_id userdir usertrack vhost_alias" ELIBC="glibc" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" LINGUAS="en" RUBY_TARGETS="ruby18" USERLAND="GNU" XTABLES_ADDONS="quota2 psd pknock lscan length2 ipv4options ipset ipp2p iface geoip fuzzy condition tee tarpit sysrq steal rawnat logmark ipmark dhcpmac delude chaos account" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, FFLAGS, INSTALL_MASK, LC_ALL, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS

x86 stable, thanks Thomas

GCC 3.x is no longer supported. And you should open new bugs instead of commenting here, has nothing to do with stabilization as GCC 4.3 (and even 4.4) has been stable for quite a while now.
I'd think for glibc-2.11.1 to go stable while gcc-3 is still in portage, glibc should depend on >=sys-devel/gcc-4.something just like mysql did for a while, instead of coming up in an emerge system and then failing. That's why I commented here.

ia64 done
ppc stable
re-adding due to security issue with <=glibc-2.11.1 via Bug 325555 2.11.2 over 2.11.1 should be just bug fixes and generally safe
(In reply to comment #12) > re-adding due to security issue with <=glibc-2.11.1 via Bug 325555 > > 2.11.2 over 2.11.1 should be just bug fixes and generally safe Why didn't you re-add ia64?
why would i re-add an arch that is already stable
x86 stable
My amd64 machine just tried to update to glib-2.11.2 but the build failed (at least when using gcc-4.4.3). /work/glibc-2.11.2/sysdeps/x86_64/dl-trampoline.h has a bunch of avx extension instructions enclosed in an #ifdef RESTORE_AVX, e.g. #ifdef RESTORE_AVX /* This is to support AVX audit modules. */ vmovdqu %ymm0, (LR_VECTOR_OFFSET)(%rsp) vmovdqu %ymm1, (LR_VECTOR_OFFSET + VECTOR_SIZE)(%rsp) ... #endif Everything inside that ifdef causes an error: ../sysdeps/x86_64/dl-trampoline.h:23: Error: no such instruction: `vmovdqu %ymm0,(192)(%rsp)' IIUC, my old amd64 k8 doesn't support the avx extensions anyway, I think the RESTORE_AVX should not be defined. (It's defined in dl-trampoline.S) Any ideas?
(In reply to comment #17) > Any ideas? Please. Open a new bug. See Comment #9.
With current stable toolchain on arm glibc-2.10.1-r1 fails to build for me, plus it appears to have security issues. Can we stabilise 2.11.2 on arm please? Do I open a new bug for the problem with 2.10.1-r1 or wait for this to be stabilised? I'm currently rebuilding system after a successful merge of glibc-2.11.2.
(In reply to comment #18) > (In reply to comment #17) > > Any ideas? > > Please. Open a new bug. See Comment #9. Sorry, I was using an old binutils, which didn't recognize the newer avx instructions. Switching to 2.20.1 fixed the build problem.
Looks good on ppc64, using a chroot w/ gcc-4.4.3-r2 and glibc-2.11.2 and world is built with it.
Stable on alpha, thanks to armin76 for testing.
arm stable
sh/sparc stable
ppc64 stable
Should be good to go stable for HPPA soon.
Marked ppc stable.
-r1 is stable for HPPA.
