e54b9c7bbb0c58475676c268e2e19c69f4bce48a by Jorg Brown <jorg@google.com>:

Tweak ABSL_PREDICT_TRUE slightly, for better code on some platforms and/or
optimization levels.  "false || (x)" is more verbose than "!!(x)", but
ultimately more efficient.

For example, given this code:

void InitIfNecessary() {
  if (ABSL_PREDICT_TRUE(NeedsInit())) {
    SlowInitIfNecessary();
  }
}

Clang with default optimization level will produce:

Before this CL              After this CL
InitIfNecessary:            InitIfNecessary:

0a3c4dfd8342bf2b1b11a87f1c662c883f73cab7 by Abseil Team <absl-team@google.com>:

Fix comment nit: sem_open => sem_init.

The code calls sem_init, not sem_open, to initialize an unnamed semaphore.
(sem_open creates or opens a named semaphore.)

677398a8ffcb1f59182cffe57a4fe7ff147a0404 by Laramie Leavitt <lar@google.com>:

Migrate distribution_impl.h/cc to generate_real.h/cc.

Combine the methods RandU64To<Float,Double> into a single method:
GenerateRealFromBits().

Remove rejection sampling from absl::uniform_real_distribution.

4c840cab6a8d86efa29b397cafaf7520eece68cc by Andy Soffer <asoffer@google.com>:

Update CMakeLists.txt to address https://github.com/abseil/abseil-cpp/issues/365.
This does not cover every platform, but it does at least address the
first-order issue of assuming gcc implies x86.
