Fix 373192 Calling posix_spawn in glibc 2.24 completely broken
Functionally, this patch just does the following 2 changes to the
fork clone handling:
* It does not mask anymore CLONE_VFORK :
The only effect of this flag is to suspend the parent, waiting for
the child to either exit or execve.
If some applications depends on this synchronisation, better keep it,
as it will not harm to suspend the parent valgrind waiting for the
child valgrind to exit or execve.
* In case the guest calls the clone syscall providing a non zero client stack,
set the child guest SP after the syscall, before executing guest instructions.
Not setting the guest stack ptr was the source of the problem reported
in the bugs.
This also adds a test case none/tests/linux/clonev.
Before this patch, test gives a SEGV, which is fixed by the patch.
The patch is however a lot bigger : this fix was touching some (mostly
identical/duplicated) code in all the linux platforms.
So, the clone/fork code has been factorised as much as possible.
This removes about 1700 lines of code.
This has been tested on:
* amd64
* x86
* ppc64 be and le
* ppc32
* arm64
This has been compiled on but *not really tested* on:
* mips64 (not too clear how to properly build and run valgrind on gcc22)
It has *not* been compiled and *not* tested on:
* arm
* mips32
* tilegx
* darwin (normally, no impact)
* solaris (normally, no impact)
The changes are relatively mechanical, so it is not impossible that
it will compile and work out of the box on these platforms.
Otherwise, questions welcome.
A few points of interest:
* Some platforms did have a typedef void vki_modify_ldt_t,
and some platforms had no definition for this type at all.
To make it easier to factorise, for such platforms, the following has
been used:
typedef char vki_modify_ldt_t;
When the sizeof vki_modify_ldt_t is > 1, then the arg syscall is checked.
This is somewhat a hack, but was simplifying the factorisation.
* for mips32/mips64 and tilegx, there is a strange unconditional assignment
of 0 to a register (guest_r2 on mips, guest_r0 on tilegx).
Unclear what this is, in particular because this is assigned whatever
the result of the syscall (success or not).

SUNWDTRACE program header. Newer Solaris no longer utilizes
this program header as a scratchspace for DTrace fasttrap
provider, before libc is loaded.
For the time being, it serves as a space for initial thread
pointer.

With this patch, MIPS32 Valgrind compiled with -mfpxx can handle all types
(regarding FP_ABI flag) of MIPS32 ELFs.
- Functions arch_elf_pt_proc() and arch_check_elf() are added to elf reader
according to linux/fs/binfmt_elf.c from Linux 4.1;
- Processing .MIPS.abiflags section and initializing appropriate FPU mode
for MIPS32 are added;
- Emulation of prctl(GET/SET_FP_MODE) sys-calls are implemented for MIPS32.

We were using some wrong syscall numbers in vki-scnums-arm64-linux.h
arm64 doesn't implement a couple of old deprecated system calls like
rename, dup2, getpgrp and fork. Adjust m_libcfile.c rename and dup2
functions to use renameat (also on tilegx) and dup3 (with fcntl fallback
for bad oldfd). And in m_libcproc.c implement getpgrp as getpgid(0).
Also don't compile the fork syswrap on arm64 (it only supports clone).
In practice this only affected callgrind which was unable to rename
dump files in some cases and ELF core dumps might have contained some
bogus prstatus fields.

Instead of passing an option to the configure script, use runtime detection
of the page size. Remove the "--with-pagesize" parameter from the configure
script.
Also accept 8k and 32k as valid page sizes.

The linux 4.3 s390 kernel has separate system calls that were originally
hidden behind the socketcall multiplexer system call. Newer glibc versions
will use these direct system calls instead of socketcall when available.
Causing several regtest failures.
This fix simply wires up the split out system calls directly to the
existing syswrap handlers for s390.

that the prerequisites for lock elision are met. Then it may use TBEGIN
and other transactional-execution instructions which are not implemented
by Valgrind. Likewise, the upcoming glibc 2.23 will exploit vector
instructions if they are advertised by HWCAP; and those are currently
not implemented by Valgrind either. In general, the increased use of
ifunc may lead to more such cases in the future.
This patch suppresses the advertising of those hardware features via
HWCAP which are either not known to Valgrind or currently unsupported.
