It turns out the startup code in csu/elf-init.c has a perfect pair of
ROP gadgets (see Marco-Gisbert and Ripoll-Ripoll, "return-to-csu: A
New Method to Bypass 64-bit Linux ASLR"). These functions are not
needed in dynamically-linked binaries because DT_INIT/DT_INIT_ARRAY
are already processed by the dynamic linker. However, the dynamic
linker skipped the main program for some reason. For maximum
backwards compatibility, this is not changed, and instead, the main
map is consulted from __libc_start_main if the init function argument
is a NULL pointer.
For statically linked binaries, the old approach based on linker
symbols is still used because there is nothing else available.
A new symbol version __libc_start_main@@GLIBC_2.34 is introduced because
new binaries running on an old libc would not run their ELF
constructors, leading to difficult-to-debug issues.
Linux 5.11 has one new syscall, epoll_pwait2. Update

This patch removes the mknod and mknodat static wrapper and add the
symbols on the libc with the expected names.
Both the prototypes of the internal symbol linked by the static
wrappers and the inline redirectors are also removed from the installed
sys/stat.h header file. The wrapper implementation license LGPL
exception is also removed since it is no longer statically linked to
binaries.
Internally the _STAT_VER* definitions are moved to the arch-specific
xstatver.h file.
Checked with a build for all affected ABIs. I also checked on x86_64,
i686, powerpc, powerpc64le, sparcv9, sparc64, s390, and s390x.

The variable is placed in libc.so, and it can be true only in
an outer libc, not libcs loaded via dlmopen or static dlopen.
Since thread creation from inner namespaces does not work,
pthread_create can update __libc_single_threaded directly.
Using __libc_early_init and its initial flag, implementation of this
variable is very straightforward. A future version may reset the flag
during fork (but not in an inner namespace), or after joining all
threads except one.

Register rseq TLS for each thread (including main), and unregister for
each thread (excluding main). "rseq" stands for Restartable Sequences.
See the rseq(2) man page proposed here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/9/19/647
Those are based on glibc master branch commit 3ee1e0ec5c.
The rseq system call was merged into Linux 4.18.
The TLS_STATIC_SURPLUS define is increased to leave additional room for
dlopen'd initial-exec TLS, which keeps elf/tst-auditmany working.
The increase (76 bytes) is larger than 32 bytes because it has not been
increased in quite a while. The cost in terms of additional TLS storage
is quite significant, but it will also obscure some initial-exec-related
dlopen failures.

Exporting functions and relying on symbol interposition from libc.so
makes the choice of implementation dependent on DT_NEEDED order, which
is not what some compiler drivers expect.
This commit replaces one magic mechanism (symbol interposition) with
another one (preprocessor-/compiler-based redirection). This makes
the hand-over from the minimal malloc to the full malloc more
explicit.
Removing the ABI symbols is backwards-compatible because libc.so is
always in scope, and the dynamic loader will find the malloc-related
symbols there since commit f0b2132b35
("ld.so: Support moving versioned symbols between sonames
[BZ #24741]").

The new tables are currently only used for consistency checks
with the installed kernel headers and the architecture-independent
system call names table. They are based on Linux 5.4.
The goal is to use these architecture-specific tables to ensure
that system call wrappers are available irrespective of the version
of the installed kernel headers.
The tables are formatted in the form of C header files so that they
can be used directly in an #include directive, without external
preprocessing. (External preprocessing of a plain table file
would introduce cross-subdirectory dependency issues.) However,
the intent is that they can still be treated as tables and can be
processed by simple tools.
The irregular system call names on 32-bit arm add a complication.
The <fixup-asm-unistd.h> header is introduced to work around that,
and the system calls are listed under regular names in the
<arch-syscall.h> file.
A make target, update-syscalls-list, is added to patch the glibc
sources with data from the current kernel headers.
