Implement ptrace getter/setter interface for syscall user dispatch.
These prctl settings are presently write-only, making it impossible to
implement transparent checkpoint/restore via software like CRIU.
'on_dispatch' field is not exposed because it is a kernel-internal
only field that cannot be 'true' when returning to userland.

As the kernel test robot reports, this is not -Wpointer-to-int-cast friendly.
Please use uintptr_t. See for example ptrace_get_rseq_configuration(). Same
for syscall_user_dispatch_set_config().
> + if (copy_to_user(data, &config, sizeof(config))) {
This leaks info in (uninitialized) config.pad[]. You can probably simply make
config.mode __u64 as well.
Minor, but sizeof(struct ptrace_sud_config) above vs this sizeof(config)) doesn't
look consistent to me...

Why can't you simply use ptrace() ?

The struct isn't packed, so this is for alignment/consistency of size.
The padding gets added anyway, and differently between 32/64 bit.
Without padding, allocating this in 32-bit mode creates a structure of
size 28 (4-byte aligned), while in 64-bit mode it creates a structure of
size 32 (8-byte aligned).
ptrace_syscall_info in the same file has the same thing.

My understanding is that it's a sanity check against the above issue.
In fact, it was what lead me to add the padding.
Without the padding, sizeof(ptrace_sud_config) will be 32b in the kernel
and 28b in userland.

I hadn't considered uninit data. It's technically a __u32, but it's
probably just cleaner to promote/cast here than deal with padding.

ptrace() is the libc wrapper around the syscall.
I would assume there are issues with #include <sys/ptrace.h> and
#include <linux/ptrace.h> in the same file. Since libc doesn't have the
new definitions.
Not sure if there's any stipulations around how selftests have to be
written, i just wrote this one based on the surrounding tests and got
it to work. I would think direct usage of the syscall is preferred,
but i'm ignorant here.
I'll make some changes and give it a few days before shipping another
patch.

OK, I have to admit I didn't know that alignof(long long) == 4 on 32 bit.

Well, if this is the only reason then this check and the "size" argument
ahould be removed, imo.
But perhaps it can be useful for future extensions, I dunno.

I suppose yes it could also be used to detect differences in versioning
if the struct changes in the future, and that would not require an API
change in the future to support it.
If something does change in the future, without the check you're kinda
SOL trying to add new fields.

Yes this is what I tried to say. So I won't argue. Oleg.
