Add support for enabling and using the binfmt_elf_fdpic program loader
on RISC-V platforms. The most important change is to setup registers
during program load to pass the mapping addresses to the new process.
One of the interesting features of the elf-fdpic loader is that it
also allows appropriately compiled ELF format binaries to be loaded on
nommu systems. Appropriate being those compiled with -pie.

In a recent discussion[1] it was reported that the binfmt_flat library
support was only ever used on m68k and even on m68k has not been used
in a very long time.
The structure of binfmt_flat is different from all of the other binfmt
implementations because of this shared library support and it made
life and code review more effort when I refactored the code in fs/exec.c.
Since in practice the code is dead remove the binfmt_flat shared library
support and make maintenance of the code easier.

We have a fairly specific alpha binary loader in Linux: running x86
(i386, i486) binaries via the em86 [1] emulator. As noted in the Kconfig
option, the same behavior can be achieved via binfmt_misc, for example,
more nowadays used for running qemu-user.
An example on how to get binfmt_misc running with em86 can be found in
Documentation/admin-guide/binfmt-misc.rst
The defconfig does not have CONFIG_BINFMT_EM86=y set. And doing a
make defconfig && make olddefconfig
results in
# CONFIG_BINFMT_EM86 is not set
... as we don't seem to have any supported Linux distirbution for alpha
anymore, there isn't really any "default" user of that feature anymore.
Searching for "CONFIG_BINFMT_EM86=y" reveals mostly discussions from
around 20 years ago, like [2] describing how to get netscape via em86
running via em86, or [3] discussing that running wine or installing
Win 3.11 through em86 would be a nice feature.
The latest binaries available for em86 are from 2000, version 2.2.1 [4] --
which translates to "unsupported"; further, em86 doesn't even work with
glibc-2.x but only with glibc-2.0 [4, 5]. These are clear signs that
there might not be too many em86 users out there, especially users
relying on modern Linux kernels.
Even though the code footprint is relatively small, let's just get rid
of this blast from the past that's effectively unused.

Commit 2217b98262 ("binfmt_flat: revert "binfmt_flat: don't offset
the data start"") restored offsetting the start of the data section by
a number of words defined by MAX_SHARED_LIBS. As a result, since
MAX_SHARED_LIBS is never 0, a gap between the text and data sections
always exists. For architectures which cannot support a such gap
between the text and data sections (e.g. riscv nommu), flat binary
programs cannot be executed.
To allow an architecture to request no data start offset to allow for
contiguous text and data sections for binaries flagged with
FLAT_FLAG_RAM, introduce the new config option
CONFIG_BINFMT_FLAT_NO_DATA_START_OFFSET. Using this new option, the
macro DATA_START_OFFSET_WORDS is conditionally defined in binfmt_flat.c
to MAX_SHARED_LIBS for architectures tolerating or needing the data
start offset (CONFIG_BINFMT_FLAT_NO_DATA_START_OFFSET disabled case)
and to 0 when CONFIG_BINFMT_FLAT_NO_DATA_START_OFFSET is enabled.
DATA_START_OFFSET_WORDS is used in load_flat_file() to calculate the
data section length and start position.

The c6x architecture was added to the kernel in 2011 at a time when
running Linux on DSPs was widely seen as the logical evolution.
It appears the trend has gone back to running Linux on Arm based SoCs
with DSP, using a better supported software ecosystem, and having better
real-time behavior for the DSP code. An example of this is TI's own
Keystone2 platform.
The upstream kernel port appears to no longer have any users. Mark
Salter remained avaialable to review patches, but mentioned that
he no longer has access to working hardware himself. Without any
users, it's best to just remove the code completely to reduce the
work for cross-architecture code changes.
Many thanks to Mark for maintaining the code for the past ten years.

with mips converted to use of fs/config_binfmt_elf.c, there's no
need to keep selects of that thing all over arch/* - we can simply
turn into def_bool y if COMPAT && BINFMT_ELF (in fs/Kconfig.binfmt)
and get rid of all selects.
Several architectures got those selects wrong (e.g. you could
end up with sparc64 sans BINFMT_ELF, with select violating
dependencies, etc.)
Randy Dunlap has spotted some of those; IMO this is simpler than
his fix, but it depends upon the stuff that would need to be
backported, so we might end up using his variant for -stable.

An arch may want to tweak the mmap prot flags for an
ELFexecutable's initial mappings. For example, arm64 is going to
need to add PROT_BTI for executable pages in an ELF process whose
executable is marked as using Branch Target Identification (an
ARMv8.5-A control flow integrity feature).
So that this can be done in a generic way, add a hook
arch_elf_adjust_prot() to modify the prot flags as desired: arches
can select CONFIG_HAVE_ELF_PROT and implement their own backend
where necessary.
By default, leave the prot flags unchanged.

Fixed by making elfcore selectable by a separate config symbol which
unlike the current mechanism can also be used from other directories
than kernel/, then having each flavor of ELF that relies on elfcore.o,
select it in Kconfig, including CONFIG_MIPS32_N32 and CONFIG_MIPS32_O32

This fixes the "offset2lib" weakness in ASLR for arm, arm64, mips,
powerpc, and x86. The problem is that if there is a leak of ASLR from
the executable (ET_DYN), it means a leak of shared library offset as
well (mmap), and vice versa. Further details and a PoC of this attack
is available here:
http://cybersecurity.upv.es/attacks/offset2lib/offset2lib.html
With this patch, a PIE linked executable (ET_DYN) has its own ASLR
region:

as was already done on s390. Removes CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE,
which is no longer needed.

MIPS is introducing new variants of its O32 ABI which differ in their
handling of floating point, in order to enable a gradual transition
towards a world where mips32 binaries can take advantage of new hardware
features only available when configured for certain FP modes. In order
to do this ELF binaries are being augmented with a new section that
indicates, amongst other things, the FP mode requirements of the binary.
The presence & location of such a section is indicated by a program
header in the PT_LOPROC ... PT_HIPROC range.
In order to allow the MIPS architecture code to examine the program
header & section in question, pass all program headers in this range
to an architecture-specific arch_elf_pt_proc function. This function
may return an error if the header is deemed invalid or unsuitable for
the system, in which case that error will be returned from
load_elf_binary and upwards through the execve syscall.
A means is required for the architecture code to make a decision once
it is known that all such headers have been seen, but before it is too
late to return from an execve syscall. For this purpose the
arch_check_elf function is added, and called once, after all PT_LOPROC
to PT_HIPROC headers have been passed to arch_elf_pt_proc but before
the code which invoked execve has been lost. This enables the
architecture code to make a decision based upon all the headers present
in an ELF binary and its interpreter, as is required to forbid
conflicting FP ABI requirements between an ELF & its interpreter.
In order to allow data to be stored throughout the calls to the above
functions, struct arch_elf_state is introduced.
Finally a variant of the SET_PERSONALITY macro is introduced which
accepts a pointer to the struct arch_elf_state, allowing it to act
based upon state observed from the architecture specific program
headers.

Adds an expert Kconfig option, CONFIG_COREDUMP, which allows disabling of
core dump. This saves approximately 2.6k in the compiled kernel, and
complements CONFIG_ELF_CORE, which now depends on it.
CONFIG_COREDUMP also disables coredump-related sysctls, except for
suid_dumpable and related functions, which are necessary for ptrace.

C6x userspace supports a shared library mechanism called DSBT for systems with
no MMU. DSBT is similar to FDPIC in allowing shared text segments and private
copies of data segments without an MMU. Both methods access data using a base
register and offset. With FDPIC, the caller of an external function sets up the
base register for the callee. With DSBT, the called function sets up its own
base register. Other details differ but both userspaces need the same thing
from the kernel loader: a map of where each ELF segment was loaded. The FDPIC
loader already provides this, so DSBT just uses it.
This patch enables BINFMT_ELF_FDPIC by default for C6X and provides the
necessary architecture hooks for the generic loader.

Randomization of PIE load address is hard coded in binfmt_elf.c for X86
and ARM. Create a new Kconfig variable
(CONFIG_ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE) for this and use it instead. Thus
architecture specific policy is pushed out of the generic binfmt_elf.c and
into the architecture Kconfig files.
X86 and ARM Kconfigs are modified to select the new variable so there is
no change in behavior. A follow on patch will select it for MIPS too.

The userland ELF tools have been coping with partial-segments core files

It behooves everyone who ever deals with core files to have more info

producing build IDs. Make it the default.
Anyone using older tools confused by these core files can configure this
