When I switched from 'uname -m' to 'gcc -dumpmachine' to fetch the
architecture name for, among others, seccomp.sh, I didn't realise
that "armv6l" and "armv7l" are just Linux kernel names -- compilers
just call that "arm".
Fix the "syscalls" annotation we use to define seccomp profiles
accordingly, otherwise pasta will be terminated on sigreturn() on
armv6l and armv7l.

Paul reports that, with commit 15001b39ef ("conf: set the log level
much earlier"), early messages aren't reported to standard error
anymore.
The reason is that, once the log mask is changed from LOG_EARLY, we
don't force logging to stderr, and this mechanism was abused to have
early errors on stderr. Now that we drop LOG_EARLY earlier on, this
doesn't work anymore.
Call __openlog() as soon as we know the mode we're running as, using
LOG_PERROR. Then, once we detach, if we're not running from an
interactive terminal and logging to standard error is not forced,
drop LOG_PERROR from the options.
While at it, check if the standard error descriptor refers to a
terminal, instead of checking standard output: if the user redirects
standard output to /dev/null, they might still want to see messages
from standard error.
Further, make sure we don't print messages to standard error reporting
that we couldn't log to the system logger, if we didn't open a
connection yet. That's expected.

Before commit 32d07f5e59 ("passt, pasta: Completely avoid dynamic
memory allocation"), we didn't store the current log mask in a
variable, and we fetched it using setlogmask(0) wherever needed.
But after that commit, we can use our log_mask copy instead. And we
should: with recent glibc versions, setlogmask(0) actually results in
a system call, which causes a substantial overhead with high transfer
rates: we use setlogmask(0) even to decide we don't want to print
debug messages.
Now that we rely on log_mask in early stages, before setlogmask() is
called, we need to initialise that variable to the special LOG_EMERG
mask value right away: define LOG_EARLY to make this clearer, and,
while at it, group conditions in vlogmsg() into something more terse.

Currently logmsg() is only available as a variadic function. This is fine
for normal use, but is awkward if we ever want to write wrappers around it
which (for example) add standardised prefix information. To allow that,
add a vlogmsg() function which takes a va_list instead, and implement
logmsg() in terms of it.

In log.c we use a macro to define logging functions for each of 4 priority
levels. The only difference between these is the priority we pass to
vsyslog() and similar functions. Because it's done as a macro, however,
the entire functions code is included in the binary 4 times.
Rearrange this to take the priority level as a parameter to a regular
function, then just use macros to define trivial wrappers which pass the
priority level.
This saves about 600 bytes of text in the executable (x86, non-AVX2).

In practical terms, passt doesn't benefit from the additional
protection offered by the AGPL over the GPL, because it's not
suitable to be executed over a computer network.
Further, restricting the distribution under the version 3 of the GPL
wouldn't provide any practical advantage either, as long as the passt
codebase is concerned, and might cause unnecessary compatibility
dilemmas.

On X32 (ILP32 using AMD64 system call ABI) and glibc,
struct timespec::tv_nsec is __syscall_slong_t and not a long int, see
also https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16437 and
timespec(3type). Fine, we could cast that down to long and be done
with it.
But it turns out that also time_t (not guaranteed to be equivalent to
any type) is a long long int, and there we can't downcast.
To keep it simple, cast both to long long int, and change formats to
%lli, to avoid format warnings from gcc.

openlog() can be used to set "ident" and have all the log messages
prefixed by it, but only if we call syslog() -- this is implemented
by C libraries.
We don't log messages with syslog(), though, as we have a custom
implementation to ensure we don't need dynamic memory allocation.
This means that it's perfectly useless to call openlog(), and that we
have to prefix every message we log by the identifier on our own.

Now that logging functions force printing messages to stderr before
passt forks to background, we'll have duplicate messages when running
from an interactive terminal, or if --stderr is passed, because at
some point we set LOG_PERROR in our __openlog() wrapper.
We could defer setting LOG_PERROR, but that would change option
semantics in other, unexpected ways. We could force calling
passt_vsyslog() as long as the mask is set to LOG_EMERG, but that
complicates the logic in logging functions even further.
Go the easy way for now: don't force printing to stderr with
LOG_EMERG if LOG_PERROR is already set. We should seriously consider a
rework of those logging functions at this point.

exit(EXIT_FAILURE), or that is what's done immediately after returning

to create a new function die() that will log an error and then

Once a log file (specified on the commandline) is opened, the logging
functions will stop sending error logs to stderr, which is annoying if
passt has been started by another process that wants to collect error
messages from stderr so it can report why passt failed to start. It
would be much nicer if passt continued sending all log messages to
stderr until it daemonizes itself (at which point the process that
started passt can assume that it was started successfully).
The system log mask is set to LOG_EMERG when the process starts, and
we're already using that to do "special" logging during the period
from process start until the log level requested on the commandline is
processed (setting the log mask to something else). This period
*almost* matches with "the time before the process is daemonized"; if
we just delay setting the log mask a tiny bit, then it will match
exactly, and we can use it to determine if we need to send log
messages to stderr even when a log file has been specified and opened.
This patch delays the setting of the log mask until immediately before
the call to __daemon(). It also modifies logfn() slightly, so that it
will log to stderr any time log mask is LOG_EMERG, even if a log file
has been opened.

In some environments, such as KubeVirt pods, we might not have a
system logger available. We could choose to run in foreground, but
this takes away the convenient synchronisation mechanism derived from
forking to background when interfaces are ready.
Add optional logging to file with -l/--log-file and --log-size.
Unfortunately, this means we need to duplicate features that are more
appropriately implemented by a system logger, such as rotation. Keep
that reasonably simple, by using fallocate() with range collapsing
where supported (Linux kernel >= 3.15, extent-based ext4 and XFS) and
falling back to an unsophisticated block-by-block moving of entries
toward the beginning of the file once we reach the (mandatory) size
limit.
While at it, clarify the role of LOG_EMERG in passt.c.
