In Linux 6.9 a new flag is added to allow for Per-io operations to
disable append mode even if a file was opened with the flag O_APPEND.
This is done with the new RWF_NOAPPEND flag.
This caused two test failures as these tests expected the flag 0x00000020
to be unused. Adding the flag definition now fixes these tests on Linux
6.9 (v6.9-rc1).
FAIL: misc/tst-preadvwritev2
FAIL: misc/tst-preadvwritev64v2
This patch adds the flag, adjusts the test and adds details to
documentation.

I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 7061 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,
support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and
sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't
know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not.

Commit 7a16bdbb9f uses IOV_MAX, which is not defined on hurd.
Checked on a build for i686-gnu.
* misc/tst-preadvwritev2-common.c (IOV_MAX): Define if not
defined.
The fallback code of Linux wrapper for preadv2/pwritev2 executes
regardless of the errno code for preadv2, instead of the case where
the syscall is not supported.
This fixes it by calling the fallback code iff errno is ENOSYS. The
patch also adds tests for both invalid file descriptor and invalid
iov_len and vector count.
The only discrepancy between preadv2 and fallback code regarding
error reporting is when an invalid flags are used. The fallback code
bails out earlier with ENOTSUP instead of EINVAL/EBADF when the syscall
is used.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu on a 4.4.0 and 4.15.0 kernel.
[BZ #23579]
* misc/tst-preadvwritev2-common.c (do_test_with_invalid_fd): New
test.
* misc/tst-preadvwritev2.c, misc/tst-preadvwritev64v2.c (do_test):
Call do_test_with_invalid_fd.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/preadv2.c (preadv2): Use fallback code iff
errno is ENOSYS.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/preadv64v2.c (preadv64v2): Likewise.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/pwritev2.c (pwritev2): Likewise.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/pwritev64v2.c (pwritev64v2): Likewise.
* misc/tst-preadvwritev2-common.c (RWF_HIPRI, RWF_DSYNC, RWF_SYNC,
RWF_NOWAIT): Define to 0 if undefined already.
(do_test_with_invalid_flags): Set invalid_flag to 2 if RWF_SUPPORTED
boils down to 0.
Linux 4.12 (b745fafaf70c0a98a2e1e7ac8cb14542889ceb0e) adds a new
p{read,write}v2 flag RWF_NOWAIT. This patch adds it for linux
uio-ext.h header.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu (on a 4.10 kernel).
[BZ #21738]
* manual/llio.texi (RWF_NOWAIT): New item.
* misc/tst-preadvwritev2-common.c (do_test_with_invalid_flags):
Add RWF_NOWAIT check.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/bits/uio-ext.h (RWF_NOWAIT): New flag.
This patch add an extra test for passing invalid flags and check its
expected failure. It shows an invalid LO_HI_LONG macro definition for
x86_64 with leads to passing invalid flags on some configurations.
The new tests fails on i686-linux-gnu and potentially on other 32 bits
architecture that uses the compat syscall definition due a kernel bug.
It is intended to be fixed upstream.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu
* misc/tst-preadvwritev2-common.c: New file.
* misc/tst-preadvwritev2.c (do_test): Add test for invalid flag.
* misc/tst-preadvwritev64v2.c (do_test): Likewise.
