selftests/rseq: Uplift rseq selftests for compatibility with glibc-2.35
commit 233e667e upstream. glibc-2.35 (upcoming release date 2022-02-01) exposes the rseq per-thread data in the TCB, accessible at an offset from the thread pointer, rather than through an actual Thread-Local Storage (TLS) variable, as the Linux kernel selftests initially expected. The __rseq_abi TLS and glibc-2.35's ABI for per-thread data cannot actively coexist in a process, because the kernel supports only a single rseq registration per thread. Here is the scheme introduced to ensure selftests can work both with an older glibc and with glibc-2.35+: - librseq exposes its own "rseq_offset, rseq_size, rseq_flags" ABI. - librseq queries for glibc rseq ABI (__rseq_offset, __rseq_size, __rseq_flags) using dlsym() in a librseq library constructor. If those are found, copy their values into rseq_offset, rseq_size, and rseq_flags. - Else, if those glibc symbols are not found, handle rseq registration from librseq and use its own IE-model TLS to implement the rseq ABI per-thread storage.
