This patch adds a new test for the new PTRACE_SYSEMU ptrace request.
This test also relies on PTRACE_GETREGS and PTRACE_SETREGS requests to
run properly, since the trace instruction (gettid() syscall) is being
modified at run-time (by PTRACE_SETREGS) and re-executed three times.
PTRACE_GETREGS is being used to check that the registers are still
sane.
This test basically creates a child process that executes syscalls
and the parent process check if it is being traced appropriately. The
parent process guarantees that the SYSCALLs are being traced, with
PTRACE_SYSEMU, and ptrace stops the child application before a syscall is
executed. The way the tests validates it, is by guaranteeing that the
system calls arguments, as argv[0] (r3) which is the same register that
will have the syscall return value on powerpc, are not being corrupted on
PTRACE_SYSEMU with a return value, i.e, it continues to have the current
arguments instead, meaning that the registers where not clobbered.
This test is basically the same test for x86 located at
tools/testing/selftests/x86/ptrace_syscall.c, limited to test PTRACE_SYSEMU
request, and ported to PowerPC.

Commit b2d35fa5fc ("selftests: add headers_install to lib.mk")
introduced a requirement that Makefiles more than one level below the
selftests directory need to define top_srcdir, but it didn't update
any of the powerpc Makefiles.
This broke building all the powerpc selftests with eg:
make[1]: Entering directory '/src/linux/tools/testing/selftests/powerpc'
BUILD_TARGET=/src/linux/tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/alignment; mkdir -p $BUILD_TARGET; make OUTPUT=$BUILD_TARGET -k -C alignment all

There are cases where the test is not expecting to have the transaction
aborted, but, the test process might have been rescheduled, either in the
OS level or by KVM (if it is running on a KVM guest machine). The process
reschedule will cause a treclaim/recheckpoint which will cause the
transaction to doom, aborting the transaction as soon as the process is
rescheduled back to the CPU. This might cause the test to fail, but this is
not a failure in essence.
If that is the case, TEXASR[FC] is indicated with either
TM_CAUSE_RESCHEDULE or TM_CAUSE_KVM_RESCHEDULE for KVM interruptions.
In this scenario, ignore these two failures and avoid the whole test to
return failure.

There are some powerpc selftests, as tm/tm-unavailable, that run for a long
period (>120 seconds), and if it is interrupted, as pressing CRTL-C
(SIGINT), the foreground process (harness) dies but the child process and
threads continue to execute (with PPID = 1 now) in background.
In this case, you'd think the whole test exited, but there are remaining
threads and processes being executed in background. Sometimes these
zombies processes are doing annoying things, as consuming the whole CPU or
dumping things to STDOUT.
This patch fixes this problem by attaching an empty signal handler to
SIGINT in the harness process. This handler will interrupt (EINTR) the
parent process waitpid() call, letting the code to follow through the
normal flow, which will kill all the processes in the child process group.
This patch also fixes a typo.

This adds a set of test cases to test the behaviour of
copy_tofrom_user when exceptions are encountered accessing the
source or destination. Currently, copy_tofrom_user does not always
copy as many bytes as possible when an exception occurs on a store
to the destination, and that is reflected in failures in these tests.
Based on a test program from Anton Blanchard.

This is a test of the ISA 3.0 "copy" instruction. That instruction has
an L field, which if set to 1 specifies that "the instruction
identifies the beginning of a move group" (pp 858). That's also
referred to as "copy first" vs "copy".
In ISA 3.0B the copy instruction does not have an L field, and the
corresponding bit in the instruction must be set to 1.
This test is generating a "copy" instruction, not a "copy first", and
so on Power9 (which implements 3.0B), this results in an illegal
instruction.
So just drop the test entirely. We still have copy_first_unaligned to
test the "copy first" behaviour.

The recent commit 15a3204d24 ("powerpc/64s: Set assembler machine

kernel, and removed some ".machine power4" directives from various asm

This broke the selftests build on old toolchains (that don't assume
Power4), because we build the kernel source files into the selftests
using different ASFLAGS.
The fix is simply to add -mpower4 to the selftest ASFLAGS as well.

There were a number of important fixes merged, in particular some Power9
workarounds that we want in next for testing purposes. There's also been
some conflicting changes in the CPU features code which are best merged
and tested before going upstream.
Some processor revisions do not support transactional memory, and
additionally kernel support can be disabled. In either case the
tm-unavailable test should be skipped, otherwise it will fail with
a SIGILL.
That commit also sets this selftest to be called through the test
harness as it's done for other TM selftests.
Finally, it avoids using "ping" as a thread name since it's
ambiguous and can be confusing when shown, for instance,
in a kernel backtrace log.

The subpage_prot syscall is only functional when the system is using
the Hash MMU. Since commit 5b2b807147 ("powerpc/mm: Invalidate
subpage_prot() system call on radix platforms") it returns ENOENT when
the Radix MMU is active. Currently this just makes the test fail.
Additionally the syscall is not available if the kernel is built with
4K pages, or if CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT=n, in which case it returns
ENOSYS because the syscall is missing entirely.
So check explicitly for ENOENT and ENOSYS and skip if we see either of

Add a self test to check if FP/VEC/VSX registers are sane (restored
correctly) after a FP/VEC/VSX unavailable exception is caught during a
transaction.
This test checks all possibilities in a thread regarding the combination
of MSR.[FP|VEC] states in a thread and for each scenario raises a
FP/VEC/VSX unavailable exception in transactional state, verifying if
vs0 and vs32 registers, which are representatives of FP/VEC/VSX reg
sets, are not corrupted.
