It was observed[1] on arm64 that __builtin_strlen led to an infinite
loop in the get_size selftest. This is because __builtin_strlen (and
other builtins) may sometimes result in a call to the C library
function. The C library implementation of strlen uses an IFUNC
resolver to load the most efficient strlen implementation for the
underlying machine and hence has a PLT indirection even for static
binaries. Because this binary avoids the C library startup routines,
the PLT initialization never happens and hence the program gets stuck
in an infinite loop.
On x86_64 the __builtin_strlen just happens to expand inline and avoid
the call but that is not always guaranteed.
Further, while testing on x86_64 (Fedora 31), it was observed that the
test also failed with a segfault inside write() because the generated
code for the write function in glibc seems to access TLS before the
syscall (probably due to the cancellation point check) and fails
because TLS is not initialised.
To mitigate these problems, this patch reduces the interface with the
C library to just the syscall function. The syscall function still
sets errno on failure, which is undesirable but for now it only
affects cases where syscalls fail.

1. Add the TAP13 header
2. remove variable data from the test description line
3. move the plan count to the end of the file, for consistency with
other kselftests
4. convert memory data from diagnostic (comment) format, to a YAML block

There are difference rules for compiling c source file in different
testcases. In order to enable KBUILD_OUTPUT support in later patch,
this patch introduce the default rules in
"tools/testing/selftest/lib.mk" and remove the existing rules in each
testcase.

Currently, kselftest use TEST_PROGS, TEST_PROGS_EXTENDED, TEST_FILES to
indicate the test program, extended test program and test files. It is
easy to understand the purpose of these files. But mix of compiled and
uncompiled files lead to duplicated "all" and "clean" targets.
In order to remove the duplicated targets, introduce TEST_GEN_PROGS,
TEST_GEN_PROGS_EXTENDED, TEST_GEN_FILES to indicate the compiled
objects.
Also, the later patch will make use of TEST_GEN_XXX to redirect these
files to output directory indicated by KBUILD_OUTPUT or O.
And add this changes to "Contributing new tests(details)" of
Documentation/kselftest.txt.

This adds a Make include file which most selftests can then include to
get the run_tests logic.
On its own this has the advantage of some reduction in repetition, and
also means the pass/fail message is defined in fewer places.
However the key advantage is it will allow us to implement install very
simply in a subsequent patch.
The default implementation just executes each program in $(TEST_PROGS).
We use a variable to hold the default implementation of $(RUN_TESTS)
because that gives us a clean way to override it if necessary, ie. using
override. The mount, memory-hotplug and mqueue tests use that to provide
a different implementation.
Tests are not run via /bin/bash, so if they are scripts they must be
executable, we add a+x to several.

This test shows the amount of memory used by the system.
Note that this is dependent on the user-space that is loaded
when this program runs. Optimally, this program would be
run as the init program itself.
The program is optimized for size itself, to avoid conflating
its own execution with that of the system software.
The code is compiled statically, with no stdlibs. On my x86_64 system,
this results in a statically linked binary of less than 5K.
