We need to backport several patches from glibc upstream to maintain ABI compatibility with upstream.

The patches identified so far are (the first one is minor):

     [AArch64] Add ipc.h.

     Adding ipc.h for AArch64 adjusted to behave correctly on big endian
     targets.

     [AArch64][BZ 18400] fix elf_prpsinfo in procfs.h

     Kernel uses int pr_uid, pr_gid, but glibc used unsigned short.

     This is an ABI breaking change, but the size and alignment of
     the struct and the layout of other members is not changed and
     there is no known usage of pr_uid and pr_gid so it is expected
     to be safe.

         [BZ #18400]
         * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64/sys/procfs.h (struct elf_prpsinfo):
         Fix pr_uid and pr_gid members.

     [AArch64][BZ 18648] change greg_t definition in ucontext.h

     This is an ABI breaking change, but

         typedef int greg_t;

     is not a useful definition on aarch64.

     greg_t is usually used for defining gregset_t which is used
     in mcontext_t.  The general registers in mcontext_t can only
     be accessed by target specific code and on aarch64 greg_t
     is not needed for that so this change is not supposed to break
     existing code, just fix the definition.

         [BZ #18648]
         * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64/sys/ucontext.h (greg_t): Change the
         definition to elf_greg_t.

     (Added another BZ entry that was missed in the previous commit).


This seems to be also worth having (the ABI impact is very indirect, though):

     [AArch64] make setcontext etc functions consistent with the kernel
