This version is rebased on kernel v4.6-rc2, and has fixes in signal subsystem.
It works with updated glibc [1] (though very draft), and tested with LTP.

It was tested on QEMU and ThunderX machines. No major difference found.
This is RFC because ILP32 is not tested in big-endian mode.

 v3: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/3/704
 v4: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/4/13/691
 v5: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/9/29/911

 v6:
 - time_t, __kenel_off_t and other types turned to be 32-bit
   for compatibility reasons (after v5 discussion);

i added libc-alpha to cc, the thread is at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/4/5/872
or http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cross-arch/31449

the kernel position seems to be that the aarch64 ilp32 syscall abi
will follow regular 32bit abis (apart from signal context and ptrace
related things and syscalls will take 64bit arguments).

i think the reasoning is that this allows legacy (non-64bit-safe)
software to use this abi on aarch64 without trouble.

i think this design should be ok for glibc.

there are some interop issues between processes following different abis
(e.g. shared mutexes, abi specific file formats, lib paths,..) which apply,
but i assume it is no different from existing 32bit vs 64bit issues.

the 32bit time_t and off_t are ugly and i wonder if 32bit __kernel_off_t
is really necessary. (i don't see where that is changed: it is supposed
to be __kernel_long_t which is 64bit).

i think even legacy software should be able to deal with 64bit off_t,
so we could avoid having two sets of filesystem apis or is 64bit-only
off_t more work to do in linux/glibc?

 - related changes applied to ILP32 syscall table and handlers;
 - ILP32 VDSO code excluded. It's not mandatory, and caused questions
   during review process. We definitely make sure we will follow up
   with a VDSO later on because it is needed for performance reasons;
 - fixed build issues with different combinations of AARCH32 / ILP32
   enabling in config;
 - ILP32 TLS bug fixed;
 - entry32-common.S introduced to hold wrappers needed for both ILP32
   and AARCH32_EL0;
 - documentation updated according to latest changes;
 - rebased to the current head;
 - coding style re-checked;
 - ILP32 syscall table turned around.

   rfc3:
 - all structures and system calls are just like AARCH32 ones now. with 2
   exceptions: syscalls that take 64-bit parameter in 2 32-bit regosters
   are replaced with LP64 version; struct rt_sigframe is constructed both
   from LP64 and AARCH32 fields to be consistent with AARCH64 register set;
 - documentation rewritten accordingly;
 - common code for all 3 ABIs is moved to separated files for easy use,
   new headers and objects are introduced, incl: is_compat.h, thread_bits.h,
   signal_common.h, signal32_common.h.
 - ILP32 VDSO code restored, Nathans comments are addressed;
 - patch "arm64: ilp32: force IPC_64 in msgctl, shmctl, semctl" removed, as
   Arnd suggested general solution for IPC_64 problem.

   rfc4:
 - sys_ilp32.c syscall list is fixed according to comments;
 - binfmt_elf32.c and binfmt_ilp32.c are introduced to host the code handling
   corresponding formats;
 - statfs64, fstsatfs64 and mmap wrappers are removed;
 - rebased on v4.4-rc8 + http://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg2151759.html

 rfc5:
 - addressed rfc4 comments;
 - turned s390 compat wrappers to be generic and applied it to arm64/ilp32.
   Heiko Carsten and Martin Schwidefsky added to CC as s390 maintainers.

 rfc6:
 - glibc follows new ABI, [1];
 - significant rework for signal subsystem (patches 21, 23) - struct ucontext
   is now corresponds user representation;
 - compat wrappers and 32-bit off_t patchsets are joined with this patchset,
   as for now ilp32 is the only user for them;
 - moved to kernel v4.6-rc2;
 - few minor bugfixes.
