fix failure of open to read variadic mode argument for O_TMPFILE


# 9c2d437c 06-Jun-2014 Rich Felker <dalias@aerifal.cx>

avoid invalid use of va_arg in open

reading the variadic mode argument is only valid when the O_CREAT flag
is present. this probably does not matter, but is needed for formal
correctness, and could affect LTO or other full-program analysis.


# 7765706c 06-Jun-2014 Rich Felker <dalias@aerifal.cx>

add O_CLOEXEC fallback for open and related functions

since there is no easy way to detect whether open honored or ignored
the O_CLOEXEC flag, the optimal solution to providing a fallback is
simply to make the fcntl syscall to set the close-on-exec flag
immediately after open returns.


# 594c827a 24-May-2014 Rich Felker <dalias@aerifal.cx>

support kernels with no SYS_open syscall, only SYS_openat

open is handled specially because it is used from so many places, in
so many variants (2 or 3 arguments, setting errno or not, and
cancellable or not). trying to do it as a function would not only
increase bloat, but would also risk subtle breakage.

this is the first step towards supporting "new" archs where linux
lacks "old" syscalls.

include cleanups: remove unused headers and add feature test macros

overhaul pthread cancellation

this patch improves the correctness, simplicity, and size of
cancellation-related code. modulo any small errors, it should now be
completely conformant, safe, and resource-leak free.

the notion of entering and exiting cancellation-point context has been
completely eliminated and replaced with alternative syscall assembly
code for cancellable syscalls. the assembly is responsible for setting
up execution context information (stack pointer and address of the
syscall instruction) which the cancellation signal handler can use to
determine whether the interrupted code was in a cancellable state.

these changes eliminate race conditions in the previous generation of
cancellation handling code (whereby a cancellation request received
just prior to the syscall would not be processed, leaving the syscall
to block, potentially indefinitely), and remedy an issue where
non-cancellable syscalls made from signal handlers became cancellable
if the signal handler interrupted a cancellation point.

x86_64 asm is untested and may need a second try to get it right.
