533bfacbac tools/nolibc/string: Fix memcmp() implementation
commit b3f4f51ea68a495f8a5956064c33dce711a2df91 upstream.

The C standard says that memcmp() must treat the buffers as consisting
of "unsigned chars". If char happens to be unsigned, the casts are ok,
but then obviously the c1 variable can never contain a negative
value. And when char is signed, the casts are wrong, and there's still
a problem with using an 8-bit quantity to hold the difference, because
that can range from -255 to +255.

For example, assuming char is signed, comparing two 1-byte buffers,
one containing 0x00 and another 0x80, the current implementation would
return -128 for both memcmp(a, b, 1) and memcmp(b, a, 1), whereas one
of those should of course return something positive.

14f6cfe0d7 tools/nolibc: fix incorrect truncation of exit code
commit de0244ae40ae91145faaf164a4252347607c3711 upstream.

Ammar Faizi reported that our exit code handling is wrong. We truncate
it to the lowest 8 bits but the syscall itself is expected to take a
regular 32-bit signed integer, not an unsigned char. It's the kernel
that later truncates it to the lowest 8 bits. The difference is visible
in strace, where the program below used to show exit(255) instead of
exit(-1):

  int main(void)
  {
        return -1;
  }

This patch applies the fix to all archs. x86_64, i386, arm64, armv7 and
mips were all tested and confirmed to work fine now. Risc-v was not
tested but the change is trivial and exactly the same as for other archs.

5e258640ba tools/nolibc: i386: fix initial stack alignment
commit ebbe0d8a449d183fa43b42d84fcb248e25303985 upstream.

After re-checking in the spec and comparing stack offsets with glibc,
The last pushed argument must be 16-byte aligned (i.e. aligned before the
call) so that in the callee esp+4 is multiple of 16, so the principle is
the 32-bit equivalent to what Ammar fixed for x86_64. It's possible that
32-bit code using SSE2 or MMX could have been affected. In addition the
frame pointer ought to be zero at the deepest level.

06f7528d64 tools/nolibc: x86-64: Fix startup code bug
commit 937ed91c712273131de6d2a02caafd3ee84e0c72 upstream.

Before this patch, the `_start` function looks like this:
```
0000000000001170 <_start>:
    1170:	pop    %rdi
    1171:	mov    %rsp,%rsi
    1174:	lea    0x8(%rsi,%rdi,8),%rdx
    1179:	and    $0xfffffffffffffff0,%rsp
    117d:	sub    $0x8,%rsp
    1181:	call   1000 <main>
    1186:	movzbq %al,%rdi
    118a:	mov    $0x3c,%rax
    1191:	syscall
    1193:	hlt
    1194:	data16 cs nopw 0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
    119f:	nop
```
Note the "and" to %rsp with $-16, it makes the %rsp be 16-byte aligned,
but then there is a "sub" with $0x8 which makes the %rsp no longer
16-byte aligned, then it calls main. That's the bug!

What actually the x86-64 System V ABI mandates is that right before the
"call", the %rsp must be 16-byte aligned, not after the "call". So the
"sub" with $0x8 here breaks the alignment. Remove it.

An example where this rule matters is when the callee needs to align
its stack at 16-byte for aligned move instruction, like `movdqa` and
`movaps`. If the callee can't align its stack properly, it will result
in segmentation fault.

x86-64 System V ABI also mandates the deepest stack frame should be
zero. Just to be safe, let's zero the %rbp on startup as the content
of %rbp may be unspecified when the program starts. Now it looks like
this:
```
0000000000001170 <_start>:
    1170:	pop    %rdi
    1171:	mov    %rsp,%rsi
    1174:	lea    0x8(%rsi,%rdi,8),%rdx
    1179:	xor    %ebp,%ebp                # zero the %rbp
    117b:	and    $0xfffffffffffffff0,%rsp # align the %rsp
    117f:	call   1000 <main>
    1184:	movzbq %al,%rdi
    1188:	mov    $0x3c,%rax
    118f:	syscall
    1191:	hlt
    1192:	data16 cs nopw 0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
    119d:	nopl   (%rax)
```

[wt: I did this on purpose due to a misunderstanding of the spec, other

30ca20517a tools headers: Move the nolibc header from rcutorture to tools/include/nolibc/
As suggested by Ingo, this header file might benefit other tools than
just rcutorture. For now it's quite limited, but is easy to extend, so
exposing it into tools/include/nolibc/ will make it much easier to
adopt by other tools.

The mkinitrd.sh script in rcutorture was updated to use this new location.
