This is used in various selftests and will be handy when integrating
those with nolibc.
Not all configurations support namespaces, so skip the tests where
necessary. Also if the tests are running without privileges.
Enable the namespace configuration for those architectures where it is not
enabled by default.

32-bit s390 is very close to the existing 64-bit implementation.
Some special handling is necessary as there is neither LLVM nor
QEMU support. Also the kernel itself can not build natively for 32-bit
s390, so instead the test program is executed with a 64-bit kernel.

Some targets use the test kernel configuration.
Executing defconfig in the same make invocation as those targets results
in errors as the configuration may be in an inconsistent state during
reconfiguration.
Avoid this by introducing ordering dependencies between the defconfig
and some other targets.

Makefile.include can modify CC and CFLAGS for usage with clang.
Make use of it.
Makefile.include is currently used to handle the O= variable.
This is incompatible with the LLVM= handling as for O= it has to be
included as early as possible, while for LLVM= it needs to be included
after CFLAGS are set up.
To avoid this incompatibility, switch the O= handling to custom logic.

The nolibc-test Makefile includes various other Makefiles from the tree.
At first these are included with relative paths like
"../../../build/Build.include" but as soon as $(srctree) is set up,
the inclusions use that instead to build full paths.
To keep the style of inclusions consistent, perform the setup
$(srctree) as early as possible and use it for all inclusions.

When the initramfs is embedded into the kernel each rebuild of it will
trigger a full kernel relink and all the expensive postprocessing steps.
Currently nolibc-test and therefore the initramfs are always rebuild,
even without source changes, leading to lots of slow kernel relinks.
Instead of linking the initramfs into the kernel assemble it manually
and pass it explicitly to qemu.
This avoids all of the kernel relinks.

Kernel uses ARCH=powerpc for both 32-bit and 64-bit PowerPC, here adds a
ppc64 variant for big endian 64-bit PowerPC, users can pass XARCH=ppc64
to test it.
The powernv machine of qemu-system-ppc64 is used with
powernv_be_defconfig.
As the document [1] shows:
PowerNV (as Non-Virtualized) is the “bare metal” platform using the
OPAL firmware. It runs Linux on IBM and OpenPOWER systems and it can be
used as an hypervisor OS, running KVM guests, or simply as a host OS.
Notes,
- differs from little endian 64-bit PowerPC, vmlinux is used instead of
zImage, because big endian zImage [2] only boot on qemu with x-vof=on
(added from qemu v7.0) and a fixup patch [3] for qemu v7.0.51:
- since the VSX support may be disabled in kernel side, to avoid
"illegal instruction" errors due to missing VSX kernel support, let's
simply let compiler not generate vector/scalar (VSX) instructions via
the '-mno-vsx' option.
- as 'man gcc' shows, '-mmultiple' is used to generate code that uses
the load multiple word instructions and the store multiple word
instructions. Those instructions do not work when the processor is in
little-endian mode (except PPC740/PPC750), so, we only enable it
for big endian powerpc.
- for big endian ppc64, as the help message from arch/powerpc/Kconfig
shows, the V2 ABI is standard for 64-bit little-endian, but for
big-endian it is less well tested by kernel and toolchain, so, use
elfv1 as-is, no need to explicitly ask toolchain to use elfv2 here.

binary will not run on kernel with elfv2 ABI.

Kernel uses ARCH=powerpc for both 32-bit and 64-bit PowerPC, here adds a
ppc variant for 32-bit PowerPC and uses it as the default variant of
powerpc architecture.
Users can pass XARCH=ppc (or ARCH=powerpc) to test 32-bit PowerPC.
The default qemu-system-ppc g3beige machine [1] is used to run 32-bit
powerpc kernel with pmac32_defconfig. The missing PMACZILOG serial tty
and console are enabled in another patch [2].
Note,
- zImage doesn't boot due to "qemu-system-ppc: Some ROM regions are
overlapping" error, so, vmlinux is used instead.

Most of the CPU architectures have different variants, but kernel
usually only accepts parts of them via the ARCH variable, the others
should be customized via kernel config files.
To simplify testing, a new XARCH variable is added to extend the
kernel's ARCH with a few variants of the same architecture, and it is
used to customize variant specific variables, at last XARCH is converted
to the kernel's ARCH:
e.g. make run XARCH=<one of the supported variants>
| \
| `-> variant specific variables:
| IMAGE, DEFCONFIG, QEMU_ARCH, QEMU_ARGS, CFLAGS ...
\
`---> kernel's ARCH
XARCH and ARCH are carefully mapped to allow users to pass architecture
variants via XARCH or pass architecture via ARCH from cmdline.
PowerPC is the first user and also a very good reference architecture of
this mapping, it has variants with different combinations of
32-bit/64-bit and bit endian/little endian.
To use this mapping, the other architectures can refer to PowerPC, If
the target architecture only has one variant, XARCH is simply an alias
of ARCH, no additional mapping required.

As the head comment of nolibc-test.c shows, it can be built in 3 ways:
$(CC) -nostdlib -include /path/to/nolibc.h => NOLIBC already defined
$(CC) -nostdlib -I/path/to/nolibc/sysroot => _NOLIBC_* guards are present
$(CC) with default libc => NOLIBC* never defined
Only last two of them are tested currently, let's allow test the first one too.
This may help to find issues about using nolibc.h to build programs. it
derives from this change:
commit 3a8039e289 ("tools/nolibc: Fix build of stdio.h due to header ordering")
Usage:
// test with sysroot by default
$ make run-user
// test without sysroot, using nolibc.h directly
$ make run-user NOLIBC_SYSROOT=0
