[PATCH v4 1/6] x86/syscall: update and extend selftest syscall_numbering_64

From: H. Peter Anvin
Date: Tue May 18 2021 - 15:13:48 EST


From: "H. Peter Anvin (Intel)" <hpa@xxxxxxxxx>

Update the syscall_numbering_64 selftest to reflect that a system call
is to be extended from 32 bits. Add a mix of tests for valid and
invalid system calls in 64-bit and x32 space.

Use an explicit system call instruction, because we cannot know if the
glibc syscall() wrapper intercepts instructions, extends the system
call number independently, or anything similar.

Use long long instead of long to make it possible to compile this test
on x32 as well as 64 bits.
