  This patch consolidates all the fallocate{64} implementation for Linux
in only one (sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/fallocate{64}.c).  It also removes the
syscall from the auto-generation using assembly macros.

The new macro SYSCALL_LL{64} is used to handle the offset argument, using
the same strategy used in previous p{read,write}{64} consolidation:

  1. Each architecture/ABI defines if its a ILP32 (__ASSUME_WORDSIZE64_ILP32)
     and if off64_t differs in size of off_t (__ASSUME_OFF_DIFF_OFF64).
     Currently, x32 defines __ASSUME_WORDSIZE64_ILP32 and only MIPS64-n32
     defines both __ASSUME_WORDSIZE64_ILP32 and __ASSUME_OFF_DIFF_OFF64.

  2. For the default function implementation (without the 64 suffix)
     the symbol will be built if is 32-bits (__WORDSIZE == 64) or
     if off_t differs in size from off64_t (__ASSUME_OFF_DIFF_OFF64).

     It means that for architecture that only pass 64-bit off_t this
     symbol won't be build.

  3. The 64 variant of the function implementation (with the 64 suffix)
     will be always build and a weak alias for the non-suffix variant
     will be created if __WORDSIZE == 64 and if size of off64_t differs
     from off_t.

Checked on x86_64, x32, i386, aarch64, and ppc64le.

	macro on offset argument.

How should this work for new 32-bit architectures when they do
not set __ASSUME_OFF_DIFF_OFF64?

It looks like you have two identical implementations then, though
you would want to have just one of them plus an alias.

Maybe the "__WORDSIZE == 64" check can simply be dropped and all
existing 32-bit architectures set __ASSUME_OFF_DIFF_OFF64 instead?

It was something that crossed my mind just after I sent the patch.
And it is not wrong itself, although suboptimal as you noted
(glibc will provide fallocate and fallocate64 which will be same the
implementation).

I think for fallocate we can just use

fallocate.c
#if __WORDSIZE != 64 && !defined __ASSUME_WORDSIZE64_ILP32
/* build fallocate */
#endif

and

fallocate64.c

/* build fallocate64 */
#if __WORDSIZE == 64 || defined __ASSUME_WORDSIZE64_ILP32
weak_alias (fallocate64, fallocate)
#endif

It will avoid building fallocate for ILP32 architectures with
off and off64_t with the same size.

My mistake here, I was with the wrong assumption aarch64/ilp32 was
following the already supported ilp32 architectures for passing
off_t/off64_t (I still reading all the discussion for ilp32).

I see now correct way is indeed what Yuri Norov has suggested in
the previous [1] thread:

fallocate.c
#ifndef __OFF_T_MATCHES_OFF64_T
/* build fallocate */
#endif

and

fallocate64.c

/* build fallocate64 */
#ifdef __OFF_T_MATCHES_OFF64_T
weak_alias (fallocate64, fallocate)
#endif


I am assuming here aarch64/ilp32 is not defining __ASSUME_WORDSIZE64_ILP32
(which I plan to check in the patchset).

Right.

Correct, that is the idea. We've gone back and forth on this quite a bit,
but this is the latest iteration after several reviewers pointed out that
handling the passing of 64-bit arguments for a small number of syscalls
adds a significant complexity for all other syscalls in the kernel since
it requires zeroing the upper register halves for almost all syscalls
without a way to do it during the syscall entry.
