The rseq.h UAPI now documents that the rseq_cs field must be cleared
before reclaiming memory that contains the targeted struct rseq_cs, but
also that the rseq_cs field must be cleared before reclaiming memory of
the code pointed to by the rseq_cs start_ip and post_commit_offset
fields.

While we can expect that use of dlclose(3) will typically unmap
both struct rseq_cs and its associated code at once, nothing would
theoretically prevent a JIT from reclaiming the code without
reclaiming the struct rseq_cs, which would erroneously allow the
kernel to consider new code which is not a rseq critical section
as a rseq critical section following a code reclaim.

<title>rseq/selftests: Fix: Namespace gettid() for compatibility with glibc 2.30</title>

<id>8df34c56321479bfa1ec732c675b686c2b4df412</id>
<content type='text'>
glibc 2.30 introduces gettid() in public headers, which clashes with
the internal static definition within rseq selftests.

Rename gettid() to rseq_gettid() to eliminate this symbol name clash.

'kunit' writes the 'test.log' under the kernel source directory even
though a 'build_dir' option is given.  As users who use the option might
expect the outputs to be placed under the specified directory, this
commit modifies the logic to write the log file under the 'build_dir'.

livepatch test configures the system and debug environment to run
tests. Some of these actions fail without root access and test
dumps several permission denied messages before it exits.

Fix test-state.sh to call setup_config instead of set_dynamic_debug
as suggested by Petr Mladek &lt;pmladek@suse.com&gt;

Fix it to check root uid and exit with skip code instead.
