Commit Message

RLIM64_INFINITY was supposed to be a glibc convention rather than
anything seen by the kernel, but it ended being passed to the kernel
through the prlimit64 syscall.

* On the kernel side, the value is defined for the prlimit64 syscall for
  all architectures in include/uapi/linux/resource.h:

  #define RLIM64_INFINITY           (~0ULL)

* On the kernel side, the value is defined for getrlimit and setrlimit
  in arch/alpha/include/uapi/asm/resource.h

  #define RLIM_INFINITY            0x7ffffffffffffffful

* On the GNU libc side, the value is defined in
  sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/bits/resource.h:

  # define RLIM64_INFINITY 0x7fffffffffffffffLL

This was not an issue until the getrlimit and setrlimit glibc functions
have been changed in commit 045c13d185 ("Consolidate Linux setrlimit and
getrlimit implementation") to use the prlimit64 syscall instead of the
getrlimit and setrlimit ones.

This patch fixes that by adding a wrapper to fix the value passed to or
received from the kernel, before or after calling the prlimit64 syscall.

Changelog:

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/getrlimit64.c: New file.

Sigh, at least seem only alpha still defines RLIMIT64_INFINITY as 
0x7ffffffffffffffful.  I did see some failures related to 'allocatestack.c:480' 
you pointed out (basically all the rt/* ones from 2.26 release info),
however the issue only triggers when the tests are ran from make with
either make check or make <folder>/tests.  If I ran the tests directly
using 'testrun.sh' the same one succeeds.

Anyway, do you think you can came up with a regression tests for this
issues? Otherwise change LGTM

Maybe this is the issue with some versions of GNU make unlimiting the 
stack and applying that unlimited stack to subprocesses?  Any test that 
relies on properties of the stack limit needs to explicitly limit or 
unlimit the stack itself.

As long as getrlimit and setrlimit behave the same way, it's difficult
to do so. I guess it's possible to call prlimit directly and compare the
values with getrlimit and setrlimit. Such a test will fail for
architectures which have a different representation of RLIM_INFINITY in
the kernel and the libc, so it is somehow dependent on patch 2 (assuming
that alpha is the last concerned architecture, which seems to be the
case).

However, do_prlimit still uses RLIM_INFINITY, so I'm a bit confused about how
this change is supposed to make any difference.

Even if it did, surely the best solution is not to map __{old}_getrlimit64 to
the prlimit64 syscall, but to the original getrlimit syscall so that userland
need do no mapping at all of the return value structure.

The prlimit64 syscall does the conversion between the two variants of
RLIM_INFINITY, through the rlim_to_rlim64 and rlim64_to_rlim functions.
Therefore depending if the getrlimit/setrlimit or the prlimit64 syscalls
are used, the RLIM_INFINITY value is different.

This has two issues:
- The RLIM_INFINITY value defined on the glibc side is correct for the
  getrlimit/setrlimit functions, but not for the prlimit one which is
  also provided by the GNU libc. The goal of the second patch is
  actually to change this value to fix that issue.
- Using different syscalls depending on the architecture causes issues
  when seccomp is being used, and requires additional whitelisting for
  them. It's something that is usually not well done for non-mainstream
  architectures like alpha. This has caused issue for example in systemd
  (not sure about alpha in particular though).

Huh.  I hadn't considered that issue.
The patch series looks fine, then.
