nds32: fix asm/syscall.h
PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO is a generic ptrace API that lets ptracer obtain details of the syscall the tracee is blocked in. There are two reasons for a special syscall-related ptrace request. Firstly, with the current ptrace API there are cases when ptracer cannot retrieve necessary information about syscalls. Some examples include: * The notorious int-0x80-from-64-bit-task issue. See [1] for details. In short, if a 64-bit task performs a syscall through int 0x80, its tracer has no reliable means to find out that the syscall was, in fact, a compat syscall, and misidentifies it. * Syscall-enter-stop and syscall-exit-stop look the same for the tracer. Common practice is to keep track of the sequence of ptrace-stops in order not to mix the two syscall-stops up. But it is not as simple as it looks; for example, strace had a (just recently fixed) long-standing bug where attaching strace to a tracee that is performing the execve system call led to the tracer identifying the following syscall-exit-stop as syscall-enter-stop, which messed up all the state tracking. * Since the introduction of commit 84d77d3f ("ptrace: Don't allow accessing an undumpable mm"), both PTRACE_PEEKDATA and process_vm_readv become unavailable when the process dumpable flag is cleared. On such architectures as ia64 this results in all syscall arguments being unavailable for the tracer. Secondly, ptracers also have to support a lot of arch-specific code for obtaining information about the tracee. For some architectures, this requires a ptrace(PTRACE_PEEKUSER, ...) invocation for every syscall argument and return value. PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO returns the following structure: struct ptrace_syscall_info { __u8 op; /* PTRACE_SYSCALL_INFO_* */ __u32 arch __attribute__((__aligned__(sizeof(__u32)))); __u64 instruction_pointer; __u64 stack_pointer; union { struct { __u64 nr; __u64 args[6]; } entry; struct { __s64 rval; __u8 is_error; } exit; struct { __u64 nr; __u64 args[6]; __u32 ret_data; } seccomp; }; }; The structure was chosen according to [2], except for the following changes: * seccomp substructure was added as a superset of entry substructure * the type of nr field was changed from int to __u64 because syscall numbers are, as a practical matter, 64 bits * stack_pointer field was added along with instruction_pointer field since it is readily available and can save the tracer from extra PTRACE_GETREGS/PTRACE_GETREGSET calls * arch is always initialized to aid with tracing system calls such as execve() * instruction_pointer and stack_pointer are always initialized so they could be easily obtained for non-syscall stops * a boolean is_error field was added along with rval field, this way the tracer can more reliably distinguish a return value from an error value strace has been ported to PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO. Starting with release 4.26, strace uses PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO API as the preferred mechanism of obtaining syscall information.

This bug has to be fixed in order to extend the generic ptrace API with PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO request.
