011e111d299284b65af07add523a9dccac356244 09-Sep-2014 Elliott Hughes <enh@google.com> Ensure __set_errno is still visible on LP32.

The use of the .hidden directive to avoid going via the PLT for
__set_errno had the side-effect of actually making __set_errno
hidden (which is odd because assembler directives don't usually
affect symbols defined in a different file --- you can't even
create a weak reference to a symbol that's defined in a different
file).

This change switches the system call stubs over to a new always-hidden
__set_errno_internal and has a visible __set_errno on LP32 just for
binary compatibility with old NDK apps.

(cherry-pick of 7efad83d430f4d824f2aaa75edea5106f6ff8aae.)

ebc8cd117a562f387c52ed4e1aeba0fb21f33194 07-Jun-2014 Elliott Hughes <enh@google.com> Rename __bionic_clone_entry to __start_thread.

This seems a bit less obscure.

e7dccdf683616347a8fa65aba02ee3e12babbcf4 28-May-2014 Elliott Hughes <enh@google.com> Clear the return address register in __bionic_clone.

The unwinder will end up on the parent thread's stack if the return
address register is not cleared.

954cf0d4e2669f91194b45f484152e47efa4f6c7 09-May-2014 Elliott Hughes <enh@google.com> Hide the __bionic_clone and __bionic_clone_entry implementation details.

clone(2) is the public symbol.

Also switch a test from __bionic_clone to clone; testing public API
means the test now works on glibc too.

851e68a2402fa414544e66650e09dfdaac813e51 20-Feb-2014 Elliott Hughes <enh@google.com> Unify our assembler macros.

Our <machine/asm.h> files were modified from upstream, to the extent
that no architecture was actually using the upstream ENTRY or END macros,
assuming that architecture even had such a macro upstream. This patch moves
everyone to the same macros, with just a few tweaks remaining in the
<machine/asm.h> files, which no one should now use directly.

I've removed most of the unused cruft from the <machine/asm.h> files, though
there's still rather a lot in the mips/mips64 ones.

The kernel now maintains the pthread_internal_t::tid field for us,
and __clone was only used in one place so let's inline it so we don't
have to leave such a dangerous function lying around. Also rename
files to match their content and remove some useless #includes.
