The accept4, recvmmsg and sendmmsg functions had macros
__ASSUME_*_SYSCALL_WITH_SOCKETCALL. Before we could assume kernels
with the relevant functionality, these macros represented the
conditions under which, on a socketcall architecture, glibc could just
call the syscall unconditionally and not have to deal with socketcall
at all for those functions, because if the syscall didn't work for
them the socketcall call wouldn't either.
Now we can assume kernels with the relevant functionality, the only
question is whether we can assume the syscall is present; if not, we
are on a socketcall architecture and just use socketcall instead.
Thus, this patch removes the macros that are no longer necessary, and
simplifies the code for accept4, recvmmsg and sendmmsg to use the same
logic as the other C implementations of socket functions that may use
a syscall or socketcall depending on kernel support.
Tested for x86_64 and x86.

Simplify the Linux accept4 implementation based on the assumption
that it is available in some way. __ASSUME_ACCEPT4_SOCKETCALL was
previously unused, so remove it.
For ia64, the accept4 system call (and socket call) were backported
in kernel version 3.2.18. Reflect this in the installation
instructions.
This patch removes the socket.S implementation for all ports and replace
it by a C implementation using socketcall. For ports that implement
the syscall directly, there is no change.
The patch idea is to simplify the socket function implementation that
uses the socketcall to be based on C implemetation instead of a pseudo
assembly implementation with arch specific parts. The patch then remove
the assembly implementatation for the ports which uses socketcall
(i386, microblaze, mips, powerpc, sparc, m68k, s390 and sh).
I have cross-build GLIBC for afore-mentioned ports and tested on both
i386 and ppc32 without regressions.
In <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2013-12/msg00008.html>,
Aurelien noted issues with the definition of __ASSUME_ACCEPT4, which I
discussed in more detail in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2013-12/msg00014.html>; these
are now bug 16609.
As previously noted, __ASSUME_ACCEPT4 is used in two ways:
* In OS-independent code, to mean "accept4 can be assumed to work
rather than fail with ENOSYS". It doesn't matter whether it's
implemented with socketcall or a separate syscall.
* In Linux-specific code, to mean "the socketcall multiplex syscall
can be assumed to handle the accept4 operation. When used in
Linux-specific code, it *never* refers to anything relating to the
accept4 syscall, only to the socketcall multiplexer.
This patch splits the macro into separate __ASSUME_ACCEPT4_SOCKETCALL,
__ASSUME_ACCEPT4_SYSCALL and __ASSUME_ACCEPT4 to clarify the different
cases involved. A macro __ASSUME_SOCKETCALL is added for convenience
in writing logic relating to all socketcall architectures. In
addition, to address the issue of architectures where socketcall
support for accept4 was added before a separate syscall was added (and
so the separate syscall should not be used unless known to be present
or fallback to socketcall is available), a fourth macro
__ASSUME_ACCEPT4_SYSCALL_WITH_SOCKETCALL is added to indicate that the
syscall became available at the same time as socketcall support. This
is then used in the relevant places in a conditional determining
whether to undefine __NR_accept4 (the simple approach to avoiding the
syscall's presence causing problems; I didn't try to implement runtime
fallback from the syscall to socketcall).
Architecture-specific note: alpha defined __ASSUME_ACCEPT4 for 2.6.33
and later, but actually the syscall was added for alpha in 3.2, so
this patch uses the correct condition for __ASSUME_ACCEPT4_SYSCALL
there.
Tested x86_64, including that disassembly of the installed shared
libraries is unchanged by this patch.
