  X32 uses the same 64-bit syscall interface for set_thread_area.  But
__NR_set_thread_area is missing from <asm/unistd_x32.h>.  A kernel patch
was submitted:

From 7b05d5b43ae2545e0d4a3edb24205d18bc883626 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: [PATCH] x86-64: Enable x32 set_thread_area

X32 uses the common 64-bit syscall interface for set_thread_area.  Tested
with tools/testing/selftests/x86/sigreturn.c on x32.

I think you can use sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/x32/fixup-asm-unistd.h
for this.  It's more tailored to this purpose.  arc and arm already
use it.

Thanks,

It doesn't work in this case.  <fixup-asm-unistd.h> is used to undefine or
redefine a syscall from <asm/unistd.h>.   The actual syscall numbers still
come from <asm/unistd.h>.  In this case, the sycall number is missing from
<asm/unistd_x32.h>.   My patch is a prerequisite for a new testcase:

../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86/tst-sigreturn-1.c: In function ‘setup_ldt’:
../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86/tst-sigreturn-1.c:258:14: error:
‘SYS_set_thread_area’ undeclared (first use in this function)
  258 |  if (syscall(SYS_set_thread_area, &gdt_data16_desc) == 0) {

Can you make it an internal test and use __NR_set_thread_area?

Like?

No, I neant using tests-internal, so that you get the built-in system
call table.

But is it really correct to add an unsupported system call definition
for the rest of glibc?  If this is just setting things up for a test,
maybe the __X32_SYSCALL_BIT hack is the right approach after all.
(I don't know the objective of this test.)

Since __NR_set_thread_area may not be defined in the kernel header file,
move the test to tests-internal doesn't solve the problem.

set_thread_area is supported on x32.  The only thing missing is

#define __NR_set_thread_area (__X32_SYSCALL_BIT + 205)

in <asm/unistd_x32.h>.

Should I update my original patch to

#define __NR_set_thread_area (__X32_SYSCALL_BIT + 205)

I expect that internal tests use the built-in system call tables, so
<fixup-asm-unistd.h> should be effective for them (indirectly, after
regenerating the tables).

But set_thread_area is not supported for application use, so it's an
internal/whitebox test no matter what.

What exactly are you trying to test?

Florian

<fixup-asm-unistd.h> can't be used to add a syscal number.

True.

I am putting tools/testing/selftests/x86/sigreturn.c from Linux kernel
into glibc to test a new arch_prctl syscall for CET:

    ARCH_X86_CET_MMAP_SHSTK:

    /* Allocate a new shadow stack with unsigned long long *addr:
         IN: requested shadow stack size: addr[0].
         IN: The mmap flags: addr[1].
             1. MAP_32BIT
             2. MAP_POPULATE
         OUT: allocated shadow stack address: *addr.
     */

This patch works for me.

Here is the updated patch.  OK for master?

I do not think the test is valuable.  I just added it to show that
things do actually compile with older Linux headers because you didn't
believe me. 8-)

I think the comment should reference the Linux version in which the
missing system call was fixed.
