The reason why the old vDSOs were written in C using inline assembly was
purely because they were embedded in the C library directly as static
inline functions. This was practical during development, because it
meant you could invoke system calls without any library dependencies.
The vDSO was simply a copy of these functions.
Now that we require the use of the vDSO, there is no longer any need for
embedding them in C code directly. Rewriting them in assembly has the
advantage that they are closer to ideal (less useless branching, less
assumptions about registers remaining unclobbered by the kernel, etc).
They are also easier to build, as they no longer depend on the C type
information for CloudABI.

This was .. an interesting headache.
There are two halves:
* The earlier IRIX stuff (yes, early) occasionally would do dead
code removal and generate multiple consecutive LO16 entries.
If this is done for REL entries then it's fine - there's no
state kept between them. But gcc 5.x seems to do this for
RELA entries.
eg:
HI1 LO1 HI2 LO2 LO3 HI4 LO4
.. in this instance, LO2 should affect HI2, but LO3 doesn't at all
affect anything. The matching HI3 was in code that was deleted
as "dead code".
Then, the next one:
* A "GCC extension" allows for multiple HI entries before a LO entry;
and all of those HI entries use the first LO entry as their basis
for RELA offset calculations.
It does this so GCC can also do dead code deletion without necessarily
having to geneate fake relocation entries for balanced HI/LO RELA
entries.
eg:
HI1 LO1 HI2 HI3 HI4 LO4 LO5 HI6 LO6 LO7
in this instance, HI{2,3,4} are the same relocation as LO4 (eg .bss)
and need to be buffered until LO4 - then the RELA offset is applied
from LO4 to HI{2,3,4} calculations.
/And/, the AHL from HI4 is used during the LO4 relocation calculation,
just like in the normal (ie, before this commit) implementation.
Then, LO5 doesn't trigger anything - the HI "buffer" is empty,
so there are no HI relocations to flush out.
HI6/LO6 are normal, and LO7 doesn't trigger any HI updates.
Tested:
* AR9344 SoC, kernel modules, using gcc-5.3 (mips-gcc-5.3.0 package)
Notes:
* Yes, I do feel dirty having written this code.

The default value of the tunable introduced in r304436 couldn't be
effectively overrided on VIMAGE kernels, because instead of being
accessed via the appropriate VNET() accessor macro, it was accessed
via the VNET_NAME() macro, which resolves to the (should-be) read-only
master template of initial values of per-VNET data. Hence, while the
value of udp_require_l2_bcast could be altered on per-VNET basis, the
code in udp_input() would ignore it as it would always read the default
value (one) from the VNET master template.

The ip6_output routine is missing L2 cache invalication as done

around the problem for now.

Fix for pr24346: arm asm label calculation error in sub
Some ARM instructions encode 32-bit immediates as a 8-bit integer
(0-255) and a 4-bit rotation (0-30, even) in its least significant 12
bits. The original fixup, FK_Data_4, patches the instruction by the
value bit-to-bit, regardless of the encoding. For example, assuming
the label L1 and L2 are 0x0 and 0x104 respectively, the following
instruction:
add r0, r0, #(L2 - L1) ; expects 0x104, i.e., 260
would be assembled to the following, which adds 1 to r0, instead of
260:
e2800104 add r0, r0, #4, 2 ; equivalently 1
The new fixup kind fixup_arm_mod_imm takes care of the encoding:
e2800f41 add r0, r0, #260

- canmount is set to off for a mounted filesystem
- canmount is set to on for an unmounted filesystem

Now that we've switched over to using the vDSO on CloudABI, it becomes a
lot easier for us to phase out old features. System call numbering is no
longer something that's part of the ABI. It's fully based on names. As
long as the numbering used by the kernel and the vDSO is consistent
(which it always is), it's all right.
Let's put this to the test by removing a system call (thread_tcb_set())
that's already unused for quite some time now, but was only left intact
to serve as a placeholder. Sync in the new system call table that uses
alphabetic sorting of system calls.

- Avoid double use of "request" in a single sentence. Instead, describe
aio_sigevent as being used to request notification of the associated
operation's completion. This matches the language used to describe
aio_sigevent in aio(4).
- Simplify the prohibition on modifying buffers while requests are in
flight.
- Fix case mismatch.
- Drop note about not using stack variables. C programmers should be able
to figure out if a stack variable is safe based on the later warning
about the life cycle requirements of control blocks.
- Remove prohibition on modifying the I/O buffer for aio_fsync() since
it does not use an I/O buffer. For aio_mlock(), prohibit modifications
to the mapping (e.g. due to mprotect, munmap, mmap, etc.) but do not
prohibit modifications to the memory backing the buffer (stores into
the pages backing the buffer).
