I think I asked for this before:

Please split these things properly up. Provide the syscall and then wire
it up.

Why is this x86_64 specific?

So instead of this define, why can't you do:

config VGETRADOM_ALLOC
       bool
       select ADVISE_SYSCALLS

and then have

config GENERIC_VDSO_RANDOM_WHATEVER
       bool
       select VGETRANDOM_ALLOC

This gives a clear Kconfig dependency instead of the random
ADVISE_SYSCALLS select.

Seriously?

include/vdso/ exists for a reason.

As this is a syscall which can be invoked outside of the VDSO, can you
please provide proper kernel-doc which explains the arguments, the
functionality and the return value?

That's a total of four sizeof(struct vgetrandom_state) usage sites.

       size_t state_size = sizeof(struct vgetrandom_state);

perhaps?

Wrong place. See above.
