commit 94c5cf2a0e193afffef8de48ddc42de6df7cac93 upstream.
The arm and mips work-around for asm goto size guess issues are not
properly documented, and lack reference to specific compiler versions,
upstream compiler bug tracker entry, and reproducer.
I can only find a loosely documented patch in my original LKML rseq post
refering to gcc < 7 on ARM, but it does not appear to be sufficient to
track the exact issue. Also, I am not sure MIPS really has the same
limitation.
Therefore, remove the work-around until we can properly document this.

commit 26dc8a6d8e11552f3b797b5aafe01071ca32d692 upstream.
The semantic of off_t is for file offsets. We mean to use it as an
offset from a pointer. We really expect it to fit in a single register,
and not use a 64-bit type on 32-bit architectures.
Fix runtime issues on ppc32 where the offset is always 0 due to
inconsistency between the argument type (off_t -> 64-bit) and type
expected by the inline assembler (32-bit).

commit e546cd48ccc456074ddb8920732aef4af65d7ca7 upstream.
This is done in preparation for the selftest uplift to become compatible
with glibc-2.35.
glibc-2.35 exposes the rseq per-thread data in the TCB, accessible
at an offset from the thread pointer, rather than through an actual
Thread-Local Storage (TLS) variable, as the kernel selftests initially
expected.
Introduce a rseq_get_abi() helper, initially using the __rseq_abi
TLS variable, in preparation for changing this userspace ABI for one
which is compatible with glibc-2.35.
Note that the __rseq_abi TLS and glibc-2.35's ABI for per-thread data
cannot actively coexist in a process, because the kernel supports only
a single rseq registration per thread.

Using ".arm .inst" for the arm signature introduces build issues for
programs compiled in Thumb mode because the assembler stays in the
arm mode for the rest of the inline assembly. Revert to using a ".word"
to express the signature as data instead.
The choice of signature is a valid trap instruction on arm32 little
endian, where both code and data are little endian.
ARMv6+ big endian (BE8) generates mixed endianness code vs data:
little-endian code and big-endian data. The data value of the signature
needs to have its byte order reversed to generate the trap instruction.
Prior to ARMv6, -mbig-endian generates big-endian code and data
(which match), so the endianness of the data representation of the
signature should not be reversed. However, the choice between BE32
and BE8 is done by the linker, so we cannot know whether code and
data endianness will be mixed before the linker is invoked. So rather
than try to play tricks with the linker, the rseq signature is simply
data (not a trap instruction) prior to ARMv6 on big endian. This is
why the signature is expressed as data (.word) rather than as
instruction (.inst) in assembler.
Because a ".word" is used to emit the signature, it will be interpreted
as a literal pool by a disassembler, not as an actual instruction.
Considering that the signature is not meant to be executed except in
scenarios where the program execution is completely bogus, this should
not be an issue.
