X32 has 32-bit long and pointer with 64-bit off_t. Since x32 psABI
requires that pointers passed in registers must be zero-extended to
64bit, x32 can share many syscall interfaces with LP64. When a LP64
syscall with long and unsigned long arguments is used for x32, these
arguments must be properly extended to 64-bit. Otherwise if the upper
32 bits of the register have undefined value, such a syscall will be
rejected by kernel.
Enforce zero-extension for pointers and array system call arguments.
For integer types, extend to int64_t (the full register) using a
regular cast, resulting in zero or sign extension based on the
signedness of the original type.
For
void *mmap(void *addr, size_t length, int prot, int flags,
int fd, off_t offset);
1. addr is unchanged.
2. length is zero-extend to 64 bits.
3. prot is sign-extend to 64 bits.
4. flags is sign-extend to 64 bits.
5. fd is sign-extend to 64 bits.
6. offset is unchanged.
For int arguments, since kernel uses only the lower 32 bits and ignores
the upper 32 bits in 64-bit registers, these work correctly.
Tested on x86-64 and x32. There are no code changes on x86-64.
