<content type='text'>
There shouldn't be any 31 bit code around anymore that matters.
Remove the compat layer support required to run 31 bit code.

Reason for removal is code simplification and reduced test effort.

Note that this comes without any deprecation warnings added to config
options, or kernel messages, since most likely those would be ignored
anyway.

If it turns out there is still a reason to keep the compat layer this
can be reverted at any time in the future.

<content type='text'>
Remove superfluous newlines from inline assemblies. Compilers use the
number of lines of inline assemblies as heuristic for the complexity
and inline decisions. Therefore inline assemblies should only contain
as many lines as required.

A lot of inline assemblies contain a superfluous newline for the last
line. Remove such newlines to improve compiler inlining decisions.

<content type='text'>
Similar to syscall_set_arguments() that complements
syscall_get_arguments(), introduce syscall_set_nr() that complements
syscall_get_nr().

syscall_set_nr() is going to be needed along with syscall_set_arguments()
on all HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK architectures to implement
PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API.

This partially reverts commit 7962c2eddbfe ("arch: remove unused function

implementations.

Provide generic system call functions which should be used whenever a
system call needs to be done from user space. The only in-kernel code
is vdso, which will be converted with a follow on patch.

<id>urn:sha1:56e62a73702836017564eaacd5212e4d0fa1c01d</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch converts s390 to use the generic entry infrastructure from
kernel/entry/*.

There are a few special things on s390:

- PIF_PER_TRAP is moved to TIF_PER_TRAP as the generic code doesn't
  know about our PIF flags in exit_to_user_mode_loop().

- The old code had several ways to restart syscalls:

  a) PIF_SYSCALL_RESTART, which was only set during execve to force a
     restart after upgrading a process (usually qemu-kvm) to pgste page
     table extensions.

  b) PIF_SYSCALL, which is set by do_signal() to indicate that the
     current syscall should be restarted. This is changed so that
     do_signal() now also uses PIF_SYSCALL_RESTART. Continuing to use
     PIF_SYSCALL doesn't work with the generic code, and changing it
     to PIF_SYSCALL_RESTART makes PIF_SYSCALL and PIF_SYSCALL_RESTART
     more unique.

- On s390 calling sys_sigreturn or sys_rt_sigreturn is implemented by
executing a svc instruction on the process stack which causes a fault.
While handling that fault the fault code sets PIF_SYSCALL to hand over
processing to the syscall code on exit to usermode.

The patch introduces PIF_SYSCALL_RET_SET, which is set if ptrace sets
a return value for a syscall. The s390x ptrace ABI uses r2 both for the
syscall number and return value, so ptrace cannot set the syscall number +
return value at the same time. The flag makes handling that a bit easier.
do_syscall() will just skip executing the syscall if PIF_SYSCALL_RET_SET
is set.

CONFIG_DEBUG_ASCE was removd in favour of the generic CONFIG_DEBUG_ENTRY.
CR1/7/13 will be checked both on kernel entry and exit to contain the
correct asces.

<title>s390: fix syscall_get_error for compat processes</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b3583fca5fb654af2cfc1c08259abb9728272538</id>
<content type='text'>
If both the tracer and the tracee are compat processes, and gprs[2]
is assigned a value by __poke_user_compat, then the higher 32 bits
of gprs[2] are cleared, IS_ERR_VALUE() always returns false, and
syscall_get_error() always returns 0.

Fix the implementation by sign-extending the value for compat processes
the same way as x86 implementation does.

The bug was exposed to user space by commit 201766a20e30f ("ptrace: add
PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO request") and detected by strace test suite.

This change fixes strace syscall tampering on s390.

Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
 "We've got a reasonably broad set of audit patches for the v5.2 merge
  window, the highlights are below:

   - The biggest change, and the source of all the arch/* changes, is
     the patchset from Dmitry to help enable some of the work he is
     doing around PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO.

     To be honest, including this in the audit tree is a bit of a
     stretch, but it does help move audit a little further along towards
     proper syscall auditing for all arches, and everyone else seemed to
     agree that audit was a "good" spot for this to land (or maybe they
     just didn't want to merge it? dunno.).

   - We can now audit time/NTP adjustments.

   - We continue the work to connect associated audit records into a
     single event"
