The tunables framework needs to execute syscall early in process
initialization, before the TCB is available for consumption. This
behavior conflicts with powerpc{|64|64le}'s lock elision code, that
checks the TCB before trying to abort transactions immediately before
executing a syscall.
This patch adds a powerpc-specific implementation of __access_noerrno
that does not abort transactions before the executing syscall.
Tested on powerpc{|64|64le}.
[BZ #22685]
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/sysdep.h (ABORT_TRANSACTION_IMPL): Renamed
from ABORT_TRANSACTION.
(ABORT_TRANSACTION): Redirect to ABORT_TRANSACTION_IMPL.
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/sysdep.h (ABORT_TRANSACTION,
ABORT_TRANSACTION_IMPL): Likewise.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/not-errno.h: New file. Reuse
Linux code, but remove the code that aborts transactions.
