perf annotate: Set instruction name to be used with insn-stat when using raw instruction
Since the "ins.name" is not set while using raw instruction,
'perf annotate' with insn-stat gives wrong data:
Result from "./perf annotate --data-type --insn-stat":

This patch sets "dl->ins.name" in arch specific function
"check_ppc_insn" while initialising "struct disasm_line".
Also update "ins_find" function to pass "struct disasm_line" as a
parameter so as to set its name field in arch specific call.

perf annotate: Update instruction tracking for powerpc
Add instruction tracking function "update_insn_state_powerpc" for
powerpc. Example sequence in powerpc:
ld r10,264(r3)
mr r31,r3
<<after some sequence>
ld r9,312(r31)
Consider ithe sample is pointing to: "ld r9,312(r31)".
Here the memory reference is hit at "312(r31)" where 312 is the offset
and r31 is the source register.
Previous instruction sequence shows that register state of r3 is moved
to r31.
So to identify the data type for r31 access, the previous instruction
("mr") needs to be tracked and the state type entry has to be updated.
Current instruction tracking support in perf tools infrastructure is
specific to x86. Patch adds this support for powerpc as well.

perf annotate: Add some of the arithmetic instructions to support instruction tracking in powerpc
Data-type profiling has the concept of instruction tracking. Example sequence in powerpc: ld r10,264(r3) mr r31,r3 <<after some sequence> ld r9,312(r31) or differently lwz r10,264(r3) add r31, r3, RB lwz r9, 0(r31) If a sample is hit at "lwz r9, 0(r31)", data type of r31 depends on previous instruction sequence here. So to track the previous instructions, patch adds changes to identify some of the arithmetic instructions which are having opcode as 31. Since memory instructions also has cases with opcode 31, use the bits 22:30 to filter the arithmetic instructions here. Also there are instructions with just two operands like "addme", "addze".

perf annotate: Add support to identify memory instructions of opcode 31 in powerpc
There are memory instructions in powerpc with opcode as 31. Example: "ldx RT,RA,RB" , Its X form is as below: ______________________________________ | 31 | RT | RA | RB | 21 |/| -------------------------------------- 0 6 11 16 21 30 31 The opcode for "ldx" is 31. There are other instructions also with opcode 31 which are memory insn like ldux, stbx, lwzx, lhaux But all instructions with opcode 31 are not memory. Example is add instruction: "add RT,RA,RB" The value in bit 21-30 [ 21 for ldx ] is different for these instructions. Patch uses this value to assign instruction ops for these cases.

perf annotate: Add parse function for memory instructions in powerpc
Use the raw instruction code and macros to identify memory instructions, extract register fields and also offset. The implementation addresses the D-form, X-form, DS-form instructions. Two main functions are added. New parse function "load_store__parse" as instruction ops parser for memory instructions. Unlike other parsers (like mov__parse), this one fills in the "multi_regs" field for source/target and new added "mem_ref" field. No other fields are set because, here there is no need to parse the disassembled code and arch specific macros will take care of extracting offset and regs which is easier and will be precise. In powerpc, all instructions with a primary opcode from 32 to 63 are memory instructions. Update "ins__find" function to have "raw_insn" also as a parameter.

perf annotate: Add disasm_line__parse() to parse raw instruction for powerpc
Currently, the perf tool infrastructure uses the disasm_line__parse function to parse disassembled line. Example snippet from objdump: objdump --start-address=<address> --stop-address=<address> -d --no-show-raw-insn -C <vmlinux> c0000000010224b4: lwz r10,0(r9) This line "lwz r10,0(r9)" is parsed to extract instruction name, registers names and offset. In powerpc, the approach for data type profiling uses raw instruction instead of result from objdump to identify the instruction category and extract the source/target registers. Example: 38 01 81 e8 ld r4,312(r1) Here "38 01 81 e8" is the raw instruction representation. Add function "disasm_line__parse_powerpc" to handle parsing of raw instruction. Also update "struct disasm_line" to save the binary code/ With the change, function captures: line -> "38 01 81 e8 ld r4,312(r1)" raw instruction "38 01 81 e8" Raw instruction is used later to extract the reg/offset fields. Macros are added to extract opcode and register fields. "struct disasm_line" is updated to carry union of "bytes" and "raw_insn" of 32 bit to carry raw code (raw). Function "disasm_line__parse_powerpc fills the raw instruction hex value and can use macros to get opcode. There is no changes in existing code paths, which parses the disassembled code. The size of raw instruction depends on architecture. In case of powerpc, the parsing the disasm line needs to handle cases for reading binary code directly from DSO as well as parsing the objdump result. Hence adding the logic into separate function instead of updating "disasm_line__parse". The architecture using the instruction name and present approach is not altered. Since this approach targets powerpc, the macro implementation is added for powerpc as of now. Since the disasm_line__parse is used in other cases (perf annotate) and not only data tye profiling, the powerpc callback includes changes to work with binary code as well as mnemonic representation. Also in case if the DSO read fails and libcapstone is not supported, the approach fallback to use objdump as option. Hence as option, patch has changes to ensure objdump option also works well.

perf parse-regs: Introduce a weak function arch__sample_reg_masks()
Every architecture can provide a register list for sampling. If an architecture doesn't support register sampling, it won't define the data structure 'sample_reg_masks'. Consequently, any code using this structure must be protected by the macro 'HAVE_PERF_REGS_SUPPORT'. This patch defines a weak function, arch__sample_reg_masks(), which will be replaced by an architecture-defined function for returning the architecture's register list. With this refactoring, the function always exists, the condition checking for 'HAVE_PERF_REGS_SUPPORT' is not needed anymore, so remove it.

The first syscall simply lists the LSMs enabled, while the second and third get and set the current process' LSM attributes. Yes, these syscalls may provide similar functionality to what can be found under /proc or /sys, but they were designed to support multiple, simultaneaous (stacked) LSMs from the start as opposed to the current /proc based solutions which were created at a time when only one LSM was allowed to be active at a given time. We have spent considerable time discussing ways to extend the existing /proc interfaces to support multiple, simultaneaous LSMs and even our best ideas have been far too ugly to support as a kernel API; after +20 years in the kernel, I felt the LSM layer had established itself enough to justify a handful of syscalls. Support amongst the individual LSM developers has been nearly unanimous, with a single objection coming from Tetsuo (TOMOYO) as he is worried that the LSM_ID_XXX token concept will make it more difficult for out-of-tree LSMs to survive. Several members of the LSM community have demonstrated the ability for out-of-tree LSMs to continue to exist by picking high/unused LSM_ID values as well as pointing out that many kernel APIs rely on integer identifiers, e.g. syscalls (!), but unfortunately Tetsuo's objections remain. My personal opinion is that while I have no interest in penalizing out-of-tree LSMs, I'm not going to penalize in-tree development to support out-of-tree development, and I view this as a necessary step forward to support the push for expanded LSM stacking and reduce our reliance on /proc and /sys which has occassionally been problematic for some container users. Finally, we have included the linux-api folks on (all?) recent revisions of the patchset and addressed all of their concerns. - Add a new security_file_ioctl_compat() LSM hook to handle the 32-bit ioctls on 64-bit systems problem. This patch includes support for all of the existing LSMs which provide ioctl hooks, although it turns out only SELinux actually cares about the individual ioctls. It is worth noting that while Casey (Smack) and Tetsuo (TOMOYO) did not give explicit ACKs to this patch, they did both indicate they are okay with the changes. - Fix a potential memory leak in the CALIPSO code when IPv6 is disabled at boot. While it's good that we are fixing this, I doubt this is something users are seeing in the wild as you need to both disable IPv6 and then attempt to configure IPv6 labeled networking via NetLabel/CALIPSO; that just doesn't make much sense. Normally this would go through netdev, but Jakub asked me to take this patch and of all the trees I maintain, the LSM tree seemed like the best fit. - Update the LSM MAINTAINERS entry with additional information about our process docs, patchwork, bug reporting, etc. I also noticed that the Lockdown LSM is missing a dedicated MAINTAINERS entry so I've added that to the pull request. I've been working with one of the major Lockdown authors/contributors to see if they are willing to step up and assume a Lockdown maintainer role; hopefully that will happen soon, but in the meantime I'll continue to look after it. - Add a handful of mailmap entries for Serge Hallyn and myself. * tag 'lsm-pr-20240105' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/lsm: (27 commits) lsm: new security_file_ioctl_compat() hook lsm: Add a __counted_by() annotation to lsm_ctx.ctx calipso: fix memory leak in netlbl_calipso_add_pass() selftests: remove the LSM_ID_IMA check in lsm/lsm_list_modules_test MAINTAINERS: add an entry for the lockdown LSM MAINTAINERS: update the LSM entry mailmap: add entries for Serge Hallyn's dead accounts mailmap: update/replace my old email addresses lsm: mark the lsm_id variables are marked as static lsm: convert security_setselfattr() to use memdup_user() lsm: align based on pointer length in lsm_fill_user_ctx() lsm: consolidate buffer size handling into lsm_fill_user_ctx() lsm: correct error codes in security_getselfattr() lsm: cleanup the size counters in security_getselfattr() lsm: don't yet account for IMA in LSM_CONFIG_COUNT calculation lsm: drop LSM_ID_IMA LSM: selftests for Linux Security Module syscalls SELinux: Add selfattr hooks AppArmor: Add selfattr hooks Smack: implement setselfattr and getselfattr hooks ... |

tools/perf: Update tools's copy of powerpc syscall table
tldr; Just FYI, I'm carrying this on the perf tools tree.
Full explanation:
There used to be no copies, with tools/ code using kernel headers
directly. From time to time tools/perf/ broke due to legitimate kernel
hacking. At some point Linus complained about such direct usage. Then we
adopted the current model.
The way these headers are used in perf are not restricted to just
including them to compile something.
There are sometimes used in scripts that convert defines into string
tables, etc, so some change may break one of these scripts, or new MSRs
may use some different #define pattern, etc.
E.g.:
$ ls -1 tools/perf/trace/beauty/*.sh | head -5
tools/perf/trace/beauty/arch_errno_names.sh
tools/perf/trace/beauty/drm_ioctl.sh
tools/perf/trace/beauty/fadvise.sh
tools/perf/trace/beauty/fsconfig.sh
tools/perf/trace/beauty/fsmount.sh
$
$ tools/perf/trace/beauty/fadvise.sh
static const char *fadvise_advices[] = {
[0] = "NORMAL",
[1] = "RANDOM",
[2] = "SEQUENTIAL",
[3] = "WILLNEED",
[4] = "DONTNEED",
[5] = "NOREUSE",
};
$
The tools/perf/check-headers.sh script, part of the tools/ build
process, points out changes in the original files.
So its important not to touch the copies in tools/ when doing changes in
the original kernel headers, that will be done later, when
check-headers.sh inform about the change to the perf tools hackers.

perf tools changes for v6.7
Build
-----
* Compile BPF programs by default if clang (>= 12.0.1) is available to
enable more features like kernel lock contention, off-cpu profiling,
kwork, sample filtering and so on. It can be disabled by passing
BUILD_BPF_SKEL=0 to make.
* Produce better error messages for bison on debug build (make DEBUG=1)
by defining YYDEBUG symbol internally.
perf record
-----------
* Track sideband events (like FORK/MMAP) from all CPUs even if perf record
targets a subset of CPUs only (using -C option). Otherwise it may lose
some information happened on a CPU out of the target list.
* Fix checking raw sched_switch tracepoint argument using system BTF.
This affects off-cpu profiling which attaches a BPF program to the raw
tracepoint.
perf lock contention
--------------------
* Add --lock-cgroup option to see contention by cgroups. This should be
used with BPF only (using -b option).
$ sudo perf lock con -ab --lock-cgroup -- sleep 1
contended total wait max wait avg wait cgroup
835 14.06 ms 41.19 us 16.83 us /system.slice/led.service
25 122.38 us 13.77 us 4.89 us /
44 23.73 us 3.87 us 539 ns /user.slice/user-657345.slice/session-c4.scope
1 491 ns 491 ns 491 ns /system.slice/connectd.service
* Add -G/--cgroup-filter option to see contention only for given cgroups.
This can be useful when you identified a cgroup in the above command and
want to investigate more on it. It also works with other output options
like -t/--threads and -l/--lock-addr.
$ sudo perf lock con -ab -G /user.slice/user-657345.slice/session-c4.scope -- sleep 1
contended total wait max wait avg wait type caller
8 77.11 us 17.98 us 9.64 us spinlock futex_wake+0xc8
2 24.56 us 14.66 us 12.28 us spinlock tick_do_update_jiffies64+0x25
1 4.97 us 4.97 us 4.97 us spinlock futex_q_lock+0x2a
* Use per-cpu array for better spinlock tracking. This is to improve
performance of the BPF program and to avoid nested contention on a lock
in the BPF hash map.
* Update callstack check for PowerPC. To find a representative caller of a
lock, it needs to look up the call stacks. It ends the lookup when it sees
0 in the call stack buffer. However, PowerPC call stacks can have 0 values
in the beginning so skip them when it expects valid call stacks after.
perf kwork
----------
* Support 'sched' class (for -k option) so that it can see task scheduling
event (using sched_switch tracepoint) as well as irq and workqueue items.
* Add perf kwork top subcommand to show more accurate cpu utilization with
sched class above. It works both with a recorded data (using perf kwork
record command) and BPF (using -b option). Unlike perf top command, it
does not support interactive mode (yet).
$ sudo perf kwork top -b -k sched

* Add hard/soft-irq statistics to perf kwork top. This will show the
total CPU utilization with IRQ stats like below:
$ sudo perf kwork top -b -k sched,irq,softirq

perf bench
----------
* Add -G/--cgroups option to perf bench sched pipe. The pipe bench is
good to measure context switch overhead. With this option, it puts
the reader and writer tasks in separate cgroups to enforce context
switch between two different cgroups.
Also it needs to set CPU affinity of the tasks in a CPU to accurately
measure the impact of cgroup context switches.
$ sudo perf stat -e context-switches,cgroup-switches -- \
> taskset -c 0 perf bench sched pipe -l 100000
# Running 'sched/pipe' benchmark:
# Executed 100000 pipe operations between two processes
Total time: 0.307 [sec]
3.078180 usecs/op
324867 ops/sec
Performance counter stats for 'taskset -c 0 perf bench sched pipe -l 100000':
200,026 context-switches
63 cgroup-switches
0.321637922 seconds time elapsed
You can see small number of cgroup-switches because both write and read
tasks are in the same cgroup.
$ sudo mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/{AAA,BBB}
$ sudo perf stat -e context-switches,cgroup-switches -- \
> taskset -c 0 perf bench sched pipe -l 100000 -G AAA,BBB
# Running 'sched/pipe' benchmark:
# Executed 100000 pipe operations between two processes
Total time: 0.351 [sec]
3.512990 usecs/op
284657 ops/sec
Performance counter stats for 'taskset -c 0 perf bench sched pipe -l 100000 -G AAA,BBB':
200,020 context-switches
200,019 cgroup-switches
0.365034567 seconds time elapsed
Now context-switches and cgroup-switches are almost same. And you can
see the pipe operation took little more.
* Kill child processes when perf bench sched messaging exited abnormally.
Otherwise it'd leave the child doing unnecessary work.
perf test
---------
* Fix various shellcheck issues on the tests written in shell script.
* Skip tests when condition is not satisfied:
- object code reading test for non-text section addresses.
- CoreSight test if cs_etm// event is not available.
- lock contention test if not enough CPUs.
Event parsing
-------------
* Make PMU alias name loading lazy to reduce the startup time in the
event parsing code for perf record, stat and others in the general
case.
* Lazily compute PMU default config. In the same sense, delay PMU
initialization until it's really needed to reduce the startup cost.
* Fix event term values that are raw events. The event specification
can have several terms including event name. But sometimes it clashes
with raw event encoding which starts with 'r' and has hex-digits.
For example, an event named 'read' should be processed as a normal
event but it was mis-treated as a raw encoding and caused a failure.
$ perf stat -e 'uncore_imc_free_running/event=read/' -a sleep 1
event syntax error: '..nning/event=read/'
\___ parser error
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
Usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>]
-e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events
Event metrics
-------------
* Add "Compat" regex to match event with multiple identifiers.
* Usual updates for Intel, Power10, Arm telemetry/CMN and AmpereOne.
Misc
----
* Assorted memory leak fixes and footprint reduction.
* Add "bpf_skeletons" to perf version --build-options so that users can
check whether their perf tools have BPF support easily.
* Fix unaligned access in Intel-PT packet decoder found by undefined-behavior
sanitizer.
* Avoid frequency mode for the dummy event. Surprisingly it'd impact
kernel timer tick handler performance by force iterating all PMU events.
* Update bash shell completion for events and metrics.

- object code reading test for non-text section addresses.
- CoreSight test if cs_etm// event is not available.
- lock contention test if not enough CPUs.
Event parsing:
- Make PMU alias name loading lazy to reduce the startup time in the
event parsing code for perf record, stat and others in the general
case.
- Lazily compute PMU default config. In the same sense, delay PMU
initialization until it's really needed to reduce the startup cost.
- Fix event term values that are raw events. The event specification
can have several terms including event name. But sometimes it
clashes with raw event encoding which starts with 'r' and has
hex-digits.
For example, an event named 'read' should be processed as a normal
event but it was mis-treated as a raw encoding and caused a
failure.
$ perf stat -e 'uncore_imc_free_running/event=read/' -a sleep 1
event syntax error: '..nning/event=read/'
\___ parser error
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
Usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>]
-e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events
Event metrics:
- Add "Compat" regex to match event with multiple identifiers.
- Usual updates for Intel, Power10, Arm telemetry/CMN and AmpereOne.
Misc:
- Assorted memory leak fixes and footprint reduction.
- Add "bpf_skeletons" to perf version --build-options so that users
can check whether their perf tools have BPF support easily.
- Fix unaligned access in Intel-PT packet decoder found by
undefined-behavior sanitizer.
- Avoid frequency mode for the dummy event. Surprisingly it'd impact
kernel timer tick handler performance by force iterating all PMU
events.
- Update bash shell completion for events and metrics"

syscalls: Cleanup references to sys_lookup_dcookie()
commit 'be65de6b03aa ("fs: Remove dcookies support")' removed the
syscall definition for lookup_dcookie. However, syscall tables still
point to the old sys_lookup_dcookie() definition. Update syscall tables
of all architectures to directly point to sys_ni_syscall() instead.

perf pmu: Remove logic for PMU name being NULL
The PMU name could be NULL in the case of the fake_pmu. Initialize the name for the fake_pmu to "fake" so that all other logic can assume it is initialized. Add a const to the type of name so that a literal can be used to avoid additional initialization code. Propagate the cost through related routines and remove now unnecessary "(char *)" casts. Doing this located a bug in builtin-list for the pmu_glob that was missing a strdup.

perf parse-regs: Move out arch specific header from util/perf_regs.h
util/perf_regs.h includes another perf_regs.h: #include <perf_regs.h> Here it includes architecture specific header, for example, if we build arm64 target, the header tools/perf/arch/arm64/include/perf_regs.h is included. We use this implicit way to include architecture specific header, which is not directive; furthermore, util/perf_regs.c is coupled with the architecture specific definitions. This patch moves out arch specific header from util/perf_regs.h for generalizing the 'util' folder, as a result, the source files in 'arch' folder explicitly include architecture's perf_regs.h.

perf parse-regs: Remove PERF_REGS_{MAX|MASK} from common code
The macros PERF_REGS_MAX and PERF_REGS_MASK are architecture specific, let's remove them from the common file util/perf_regs.c. As a side effect, the weak functions arch__intr_reg_mask() and arch__user_reg_mask() just return zeros, every arch defines its own functions in the 'arch' folder for returning right values. Note, we don't need to return intr/user register masks dynamically, this is because these two functions are invoked during recording phase but not decoding phase, they are always invoked on the native environment, thus we don't need to parse them dynamically.

perf thread: Add accessor functions for thread
Using accessors will make it easier to add reference count checking in later patches. Committer notes: thread->nsinfo wasn't wrapped as it is used together with nsinfo__zput(), where does a trick to set the field with a refcount being dropped to NULL, and that doesn't work well with using thread__nsinfo(thread), that loses the &thread->nsinfo pointer. When refcount checking is added to 'struct thread', later in this series, nsinfo__zput(RC_CHK_ACCESS(thread)->nsinfo) will be used to check the thread pointer.

perf map: Add accessor for dso
Later changes will add reference count checking for struct map, with dso being the most frequently accessed variable. Add an accessor so that the reference count check is only necessary in one place. Additional changes: - add a dso variable to avoid repeated map__dso calls. - in builtin-mem.c dump_raw_samples, code only partially tested for dso == NULL. Make the possibility of NULL consistent. - in thread.c thread__memcpy fix use of spaces and use tabs.

perf kvm: Use macro to replace variable 'decode_str_len'
The variable 'decode_str_len' defines the string length for KVM event name and every arch defines its own values. This introduces complexity that the variable definition are spreading in multiple source files under arch folder. This patch refactors code to use a macro KVM_EVENT_NAME_LEN to define event name length and thus remove the definitions in arch files.

perf build: Use libtraceevent from the system
Remove the LIBTRACEEVENT_DYNAMIC and LIBTRACEFS_DYNAMIC make command line variables. If libtraceevent isn't installed or NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 is passed to the build, don't compile in libtraceevent and libtracefs support. This also disables CONFIG_TRACE that controls "perf trace". CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT is used to control enablement in Build/Makefiles, HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT is used in C code. Without HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT tracepoints are disabled and as such the commands kmem, kwork, lock, sched and timechart are removed. The majority of commands continue to work including "perf test". Committer notes: Fixed up a tools/perf/util/Build reject and added: #include <traceevent/event-parse.h> to tools/perf/util/scripting-engines/trace-event-perl.c.

Building without libtraceevent-devel installed uncovered more build failures: - The python binding tools/perf/util/python.c was assuming that traceevent/parse-events.h was always available, which was the case when we defaulted to using the in-kernel tools/lib/traceevent/ files, now we need to enclose it under ifdef HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT, just like the other parts of it that deal with tracepoints. - We have to ifdef the rules in the Build files with CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT=y to build builtin-trace.c and tools/perf/trace/beauty/ as we only ifdef setting CONFIG_TRACE=y when setting NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1 in the make command line, not when we don't detect libtraceevent-devel installed in the system. Simplification here to avoid these two ways of disabling builtin-trace.c and not having CONFIG_TRACE=y when libtraceevent-devel isn't installed is the clean way. From Athira: <quote> tools/perf/arch/powerpc/util/Build -perf-y += kvm-stat.o +perf-$(CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT) += kvm-stat.o </quote> Then, ditto for arm64 and s390, detected by container cross build tests. - s/390 uses test__checkevent_tracepoint() that is now only available if HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT is defined, enclose the callsite with ifder HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT. Also from Athira: <quote> With this change, I could successfully compile in these environment: - Without libtraceevent-devel installed - With libtraceevent-devel installed - With “make NO_LIBTRACEEVENT=1” </quote> Then, finally rename CONFIG_TRACEEVENT to CONFIG_LIBTRACEEVENT for consistency with other libraries detected in tools/perf/.

powerpc: Adopt SYSCALL_DEFINE for arch-specific syscall handlers
Arch-specific implementations of syscall handlers are currently used over generic implementations for the following reasons: 1. Semantics unique to powerpc 2. Compatibility syscalls require 'argument padding' to comply with 64-bit argument convention in ELF32 abi. 3. Parameter types or order is different in other architectures. These syscall handlers have been defined prior to this patch series without invoking the SYSCALL_DEFINE or COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE macros with custom input and output types. We remove every such direct definition in favour of the aforementioned macros. Also update syscalls.tbl in order to refer to the symbol names generated by each of these macros. Since ppc64_personality can be called by both 64 bit and 32 bit binaries through compatibility, we must generate both both compat_sys_ and sys_ symbols for this handler. As an aside: A number of architectures including arm and powerpc agree on an alternative argument order and numbering for most of these arch-specific handlers. A future patch series may allow for asm/unistd.h to signal through its defines that a generic implementation of these syscall handlers with the correct calling convention be emitted, through the __ARCH_WANT_COMPAT_SYS_... convention.

powerpc/32: Remove powerpc select specialisation
Syscall #82 has been implemented for 32-bit platforms in a unique way on powerpc systems. This hack will in effect guess whether the caller is expecting new select semantics or old select semantics. It does so via a guess, based off the first parameter. In new select, this parameter represents the length of a user-memory array of file descriptors, and in old select this is a pointer to an arguments structure. The heuristic simply interprets sufficiently large values of its first parameter as being a call to old select. The following is a discussion on how this syscall should be handled. As discussed in this thread, the existence of such a hack suggests that for whatever powerpc binaries may predate glibc, it is most likely that they would have taken use of the old select semantics. x86 and arm64 both implement this syscall with oldselect semantics. Remove the powerpc implementation, and update syscall.tbl to refer to emit a reference to sys_old_select and compat_sys_old_select for 32-bit binaries, in keeping with how other architectures support syscall #82.
