do_brk() minimizes calls into target_mmap() by aligning the address
with host page size, which is potentially larger than the target page
size. However, the current implementation of this optimization has two
bugs:
- The start of brk is rounded up with the host page size while brk
advertises an address aligned with the target page size as the
beginning of brk. This makes the beginning of brk unmapped.
- Content clearing after mapping is flawed. The size to clear is
specified as HOST_PAGE_ALIGN(brk_page) - brk_page, but brk_page is
aligned with the host page size so it is always zero.
This optimization actually has no practical benefit. It makes difference
when brk() is called multiple times with values in a range of the host
page size. However, sophisticated memory allocators try to avoid to
make such frequent brk() calls. For example, glibc 2.37 calls brk() to
shrink the heap only when there is a room more than 128 KiB. It is
rare to have a page size larger than 128 KiB if it happens.
Let's remove the optimization to fix the bugs and make the code simpler.

qemu-user crashes immediately when running static binaries on the armhf
architecture. The problem is the memory layout where the executable is
loaded before the interpreter library, in which case the reserved brk
region clashes with the interpreter code and is released before qemu
tries to start the program.
At load time qemu calculates a brk value for interpreter and executable
each. The fix is to choose the higher one of both.

Since commit 86f04735ac ("linux-user: Fix brk() to release pages") it's
possible for userspace applications to reduce their memory footprint by
calling brk() with a lower address and free up memory. Before that commit
guest heap memory was never unmapped.
But the Linux kernel prohibits to reduce brk() below the initial memory
address which is set at startup by the set_brk() function in binfmt_elf.c.
Such a range check was missed in commit 86f04735ac.
This patch adds the missing check by storing the initial brk value in
initial_target_brk and verify any new brk addresses against that value.

The qemu brk() implementation is too aggressive and cleans remaining bytes
on the current page above the last brk address.
But some existing applications are buggy and read/write bytes above their
current heap address. On a phyiscal machine this does not trigger a
runtime error as long as the access happens on the same page. Additionally
the Linux kernel allocates only full pages and does no zeroing on already
allocated pages, even if the brk address is lowered.
Fix qemu to behave the same way as the kernel does. Do not touch already
allocated pages, and - when running with different page sizes of guest and
host - zero out only those memory areas where the host page size is bigger
than the guest page size.

In the code for TARGET_NR_clock_adjtime, we set the pointer phtx to
the address of the local variable htx. This means it can never be
NULL, but later in the code we check it for NULL anyway. Coverity
complains about this (CID 1507683) because the NULL check comes after
a call to clock_adjtime() that assumes it is non-NULL.
Since phtx is always &htx, and is used only in three places, it's not
really necessary. Remove it, bringing the code structure in to line
with that for TARGET_NR_clock_adjtime64, which already uses a simple
'&htx' when it wants a pointer to 'htx'.

Support for execveat syscall was implemented in 55bbe4 and is available
since QEMU 8.0.0. It relies on host execveat, which is widely available
on most of Linux kernels today.
However, this change breaks qemu-user self emulation, if "host" qemu
version is less than 8.0.0. Indeed, it does not implement yet execveat.
This strange use case happens with most of distribution today having
binfmt support.
With a concrete failing example:
$ qemu-x86_64-7.2 qemu-x86_64-8.0 /bin/bash -c /bin/ls
/bin/bash: line 1: /bin/ls: Function not implemented
-> not implemented means execve returned ENOSYS
qemu-user-static 7.2 and 8.0 can be conveniently grabbed from debian
packages qemu-user-static* [1].
One usage of this is running wine-arm64 from linux-x64 (details [2]).
This is by updating qemu embedded in docker image that we ran into this
issue.
The solution to update host qemu is not always possible. Either it's
complicated or ask you to recompile it, or simply is not accessible
(GitLab CI, GitHub Actions). Thus, it could be worth to implement execve
without relying on execveat, which is the goal of this patch.
This patch was tested with example presented in this commit message.
