Since commit4e57a4ddf6("ARM: 9107/1: syscall: always store thread_info->abi_syscall"), the seccomp selftests "syscall_errno" and "syscall_faked" have been broken. Both seccomp and PTRACE depend on using the special value of "-1" for skipping syscalls. This value wasn't working because it was getting masked by __NR_SYSCALL_MASK in both PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL and get_syscall_nr(). Explicitly test for -1 in PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL and get_syscall_nr(), leaving it exposed when present, allowing tracers to skip syscalls again.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
