accept4 emulation via accept ignores unknown flags, so it can spuriously
succeed instead of failing (or succeed without doing the action implied
by an unknown flag if it's added in a future kernel). Worse, unknown
flags trigger the fallback code even on modern kernels if the real
accept4 syscall returns EINVAL, because this is indistinguishable from
socketcall returning EINVAL due to lack of accept4 support.
Fix this by always failing with EINVAL if unknown flags are present and
the syscall is missing or failed with EINVAL.

otherwise, pointer arguments are sign-extended on x32, resulting in
EFAULT.

a number of users performing seccomp filtering have requested use of
the new individual syscall numbers for socket syscalls, rather than
the legacy multiplexed socketcall, since the latter has the arguments
all in memory where they can't participate in filter decisions.
previously, some archs used the multiplexed socketcall if it was
historically all that was available, while other archs used the
separate syscalls. the intent was that the latter set only include
archs that have "always" had separate socket syscalls, at least going
back to linux 2.6.0. however, at least powerpc, powerpc64, and sh were
wrongly included in this set, and thus socket operations completely
failed on old kernels for these archs.
with the changes made here, the separate syscalls are always
preferred, but fallback code is compiled for archs that also define
SYS_socketcall. two such archs, mips (plain o32) and microblaze,
define SYS_socketcall despite never having needed it, so it's now
undefined by their versions of syscall_arch.h to prevent inclusion of
useless fallback code.
some archs, where the separate syscalls were only added after the
addition of SYS_accept4, lack SYS_accept. because socket calls are
always made with zeros in the unused argument positions, it suffices
to just use SYS_accept4 to provide a definition of SYS_accept, and
this is done to make happy the macro machinery that concatenates the
socket call name onto __SC_ and SYS_.

commit 59324c8b0950ee94db846a50554183c845ede160 added __socketcall
analogous to __syscall, returning the negated error rather than
setting errno. use it to simplify the fallback path of socket(),
avoiding extern calls and access to errno.

make __socketcall analogous to __syscall, error-returning
|

the __socketcall and __socketcall_cp macros are remnants from a really
old version of the syscall-mechanism infrastructure, and don't follow
the pattern that the "__" version of the macro returns the raw negated
error number rather than setting errno and returning -1.
for time64 purposes, some socket syscalls will need to operate on the
error value rather than returning immediately, so fix this up so they
can use it.

new in linux v4.3 commit 9dea5dc921b5f4045a18c63eb92e84dc274d17eb
direct calls instead of socketcall allow better seccomp filtering.
musl continues to use socketcalls internally on i386. (older kernels
would need a fallback mechanism if the direct calls were used.)
|
|
only use SYS_socketcall if SYSCALL_USE_SOCKETCALL is defined
internally, otherwise use direct syscalls.
this commit does not change the current behaviour, it is
preparation for adding direct syscall numbers for i386.
|
|
this was messed up during a recent commit when the socketcall macros
were moved to the common internal/syscall.h, and the following commit
expanded the problem by adding more new content outside the guard.
