e592d595c4 Add direction flag checking to CHECK_ABI.
Linux and Windows ABIs both require that the direction flag be cleared
on function exit, so that functions can rely on it being cleared on
entry. (Some OpenSSL assembly preserves it, which is stronger, but we
only require what is specified by the ABI so CHECK_ABI works with C
compiler output.)

17d553d299 Add a CFI tester to CHECK_ABI.
This uses the x86 trap flag and libunwind to test CFI works at each
instruction. For now, it just uses the system one out of pkg-config and
disables unwind tests if unavailable. We'll probably want to stick a
copy into //third_party and perhaps try the LLVM one later.

This tester caught two bugs in P-256 CFI annotations already:
I47b5f9798b3bcee1748e537b21c173d312a14b42 and
I9f576d868850312d6c14d1386f8fbfa85021b347

An earlier design used PTRACE_SINGLESTEP with libunwind's remote
unwinding features. ptrace is a mess around stop signals (see group-stop
discussion in ptrace(2)) and this is 10x faster, so I went with it. The
question of which is more future-proof is complex:

- There are two libunwinds with the same API,
  https://www.nongnu.org/libunwind/ and LLVM's. This currently uses the
  system nongnu.org for convenience. In future, LLVM's should be easier
  to bundle (less complex build) and appears to even support Windows,
  but I haven't tested this.  Moreover, setting the trap flag keeps the
  test single-process, which is less complex on Windows. That suggests
  the trap flag design and switching to LLVM later. However...

- Not all architectures have a trap flag settable by userspace. As far
  as I can tell, ARMv8's PSTATE.SS can only be set from the kernel. If
  we stick with nongnu.org libunwind, we can use PTRACE_SINGLESTEP and
  remote unwinding. Or we implement it for LLVM. Another thought is for
  the ptracer to bounce SIGTRAP back into the process, to share the
  local unwinding code.

- ARMv7 has no trap flag at all and PTRACE_SINGLESTEP fails. Debuggers
  single-step by injecting breakpoints instead. However, ARMv8's trap
  flag seems to work in both AArch32 and AArch64 modes, so we may be
  able to condition it on a 64-bit kernel.

Sadly, neither strategy works with Intel SDE. Adding flags to cpucap
vectors as we do with ARM would help, but it would not emulate CPUs
newer than the host CPU. For now, I've just had SDE tests disable these.

Annoyingly, CMake does not allow object libraries to have dependencies,
so make test_support a proper static library. Rename the target to
test_support_lib to avoid
https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/issues/17785

Update-Note: This adds a new optional test dependency, but it's disabled
by default (define BORINGSSL_HAVE_LIBUNWIND), so consumers do not need
to do anything. We'll probably want to adjust this in the future.

54efa1afc0 Add an ABI testing framework.
Dear reader, I must apologize in advance. This CL contains the following:

- A new 256-line perlasm file with non-trivial perl bits and a dual-ABI
  variadic function caller.

- C preprocessor gymnastics, with variadic macros and fun facts about
  __VA_ARGS__'s behavior on empty argument lists.

- C++ template gymnastics, including variadic arguments, template
  specialization, std::enable_if, and machinery to control template argument
  deduction.

Enjoy.

This tests that our assembly functions correctly honor platform ABI
conventions. Right now this only tests callee-saved registers, but it should be
extendable to SEH/CFI unwind testing with single-step debugging APIs.
Register-checking does not involve anything funny and should be compatible with
SDE. (The future unwind testing is unlikely to be compatible.)

This CL adds support for x86_64 SysV and Win64 ABIs. ARM, AArch64, and x86 can
be added in the future. The testing is injected in two places. First, all the
assembly tests in p256-x86_64-test.cc are now instrumented. This is the
intended workflow and should capture all registers.

However, we currently do not unit-test our assembly much directly. We should do
that as follow-up work[0] but, in the meantime, I've also wrapped all of the GTest
main function in an ABI test. This is imperfect as ABI failures may be masked
by other stack frames, but it costs nothing[1] and is pretty reliable at
catching Win64 xmm register failures.

[0] An alternate strategy would be, in debug builds, unconditionally instrument
every assembly call in libcrypto. But the CHECK_ABI macro would be difficult to
replicate in pure C, and unwind testing may be too invasive for this. Still,
something to consider when we C++ libcrypto.

[1] When single-stepped unwind testing exists, it won't cost nothing. The
gtest_main.cc call will turn unwind testing off.
