Subject: Re: [PATCH] selftests/nolibc: Fix up compile error for rv32

Hi, Willy, Thomas

Good news, I just fixed up all of the time32 syscalls related build and
test failures for rv32 and plan to send out the whole patchset tomorrow.

The patchset is based on 20230520-nolibc-rv32+stkp2 of [1] and the new
statckprotect patchset [2] (If v2 is ready, I prefer to rebase on v2).

[1]: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wtarreau/nolibc.git
[2]: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/20230521100818.GA29408@1wt.eu/T/#t

For the fstat compile issue, I prefer to use a __NR_statx for rv32
instead of using fstatfs, because of different fstatfs* have different
errno's, it is ugly to use lots of macros ;-) what's your suggestion?

Here is the __NR_statx version:

    +static int test_syscall_args(void)
    +{
    +#ifdef __NR_statx
    +	return syscall(__NR_statx, 0, NULL, 0, 0, NULL);
    +#elif defined(__NR_fstat)
    +	return syscall(__NR_fstat, 0, NULL);
    +#else
    +#error Neither __NR_statx nor __NR_fstat defined, cannot implement syscall_args test
    +#endif
    +}

And the fstatfs version:

    +#ifdef __NR_fstatfs64
    +#define EXPECT_SYSER_SYSCALL_ARGS() EXPECT_SYSER(1, syscall(__NR_fstatfs64, 0, 0, NULL), -1, EINVAL)
    +#elif defined(__NR_fstatfs)
    +#define EXPECT_SYSER_SYSCALL_ARGS() EXPECT_SYSER(1, syscall(__NR_fstatfs, 0, NULL), -1, EFAULT)
    +#elif defined(__NR_fstat)
    +#define EXPECT_SYSER_SYSCALL_ARGS() EXPECT_SYSER(1, syscall(__NR_fstat, 0, NULL), -1, EFAULT)
    +#else
    +#error None of __NR_fstatfs64, __NR_fstatfs and __NR_fstat defined, cannot implement syscall_args test
    +#endif

And I plan to move __NR_fstat as the first branch to make sure it works
as before on the other platforms.

All of the above failures have been fixed up, some of them are very
easy, some of them are a little hard.

1. 30, 64-66 depends on wait4, use waitid instead
2. 33-37 depends on gettimeofday, use clock_gettime64 instead
3. 51-53 depends on ppoll, use ppoll_time64 instead
4. 56-58 depends on pselect*, use pselect_time64 instead

And I have found there are two same 'gettimeofday_bad2', is it designed?
If no, I will send a patch to dedup it:

    CASE_TEST(gettimeofday_bad2); EXPECT_SYSER(1, gettimeofday(NULL, (void *)1), -1, EFAULT); break;
    CASE_TEST(gettimeofday_bad2); EXPECT_SYSER(1, gettimeofday(NULL, (void *)1), -1, EFAULT); break;

both musl and glibc help a lot, but also encounter some critical issues, for
example, to pass some test cases, it is required to emulate the same path of
the target syscalls and return the same errno's for them, the code comment will
exaplain the details.

To make sure not touch too much on the code and reduce test cost, the patchset
just kept the default code order and let the old code in the first branch.

I plan to send the whole patchset tomorrow.

Thanks,
