Subject: [PATCH v6 0/2] tools/nolibc: fix up size inflat regression
Hi, Willy
As we discussed in v5, I have proposed a my_syscall() macro, it can
convert all of the sys_* functions to macros, and such macros can simply
preserve input types from library routines and inherit the 'long' return
type from my_syscall<N>. As a result, our __sysret() helper will only
require to accept integer types and therefore we can simply revert it to
our old sign comparison version (but as macro).
I have already prepared a series of my_syscall() patchset but it
includes several not that simple patches, before sending it for review,
to directly solve the __sysret() issue at first, it is better to only
convert the current three sys_* functions to return 'long' instead of
pointer, which will make things easier.
Here is the testing result on all archs (except loongarch) with Arnd's
gcc 13.2.0, before testing it, we'd better apply the CROSS_COMPILE
patchset [1] manually:
// before
$ ARCHS="i386 x86_64 arm64 arm mips ppc ppc64 ppc64le riscv s390"
$ for arch in ${ARCHS[@]}; do printf "%9s: " $arch; make run-user XARCH=$arch 2>/dev/null | grep status | tr '\n' ' '; \
size nolibc-test | tail -1 | tr '\t' ' ' | tr -s ' ' | cut -d ' ' -f2; done

After these two patches, will send the proposed my_syscall() patchset
tomorrow, it can even further reduce more type conversions and therefore
reduce more binary bytes, here is a preview of the testing result:

It can also shrink the whole sys.h from 1171 lines to around 738 lines.
Changes from v5 --> v6:
* The method introduced in v5 works but it is too complex ;-)
* Convert the return type of sys_brk/mmap/mmap2 from pointer to 'long'
(like my_syscall<N> does), after this, all of the sys_* functions
return integer.
* Restore __sysret() helper to sign comparison as originally, but also
use macro instead of inline function to avoid useless input type and
return type conversion.
Changes from v4 --> v5:
* Use __typeof__((arg) + 0) to lose the 'const' flag for old gcc
versions.
* Import the famous __is_constexpr() macro from kernel side and add a
__is_pointer() macro based on it. (David, to avoid introduce extra
discuss on the prove-in-use __is_constexpr macro, this patch uses the
original version instead of your suggested version, more info here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220131204357.1133674-1-keescook@chromium.org/)
* Use __builtin_choose_expr() to merge two comparisons to share the same
errno setting code and the -1L assignment code.
Changes from v3 --> v4:
* fix up a new warning about 'ret < 0' when the input arg type is (void *)
Changes from v2 --> v3:
* define a __GXX_HAS_AUTO_TYPE_WITH_CONST_SUPPORT for gcc >= 11.0 (ABI_VERSION >= 1016)
* split __sysret() to two versions by the macro instead of a mixed unified and unreadable version
* use shorter __ret instead of __sysret_arg
Changes from v1 --> v2:
* fix up argument with 'const' in the type
* support "void *" argument
