Yes. I will send a v2 on top of recent changes to the test.

Yes. According to Documentation/powerpc/syscall64-abi.rst:
"
- For the sc instruction, both a value and an error condition are returned.
cr0.SO is the error condition, and r3 is the return value. When cr0.SO is
clear, the syscall succeeded and r3 is the return value. When cr0.SO is set,
the syscall failed and r3 is the error value (that normally corresponds to
errno).
"
So, while some other arches will return -EINVAL, ppc returns EINVAL. And that
is distinguished from, say, read(2) returning 22 bytes read, by using CR.SO.

R0 might be clobered. Same documentation mentions it as volatile. So, during
syscall exit, we can't tell for sure that R0 will have the original syscall
number. So, we need to grab it during syscall enter, save it somewhere and
reuse it. I used the test context/args for that. That's the main change I had
to deal with after recent changes to the test. I used the variant struct now.
I only saw the need to do this under tracer_ptrace, as that was the only one
changing syscall return values using ptrace. And that can only be done during
syscall exit on ppc (ptrace ABI we can't break). So, changing get_syscall did
not seem necessary.
Thanks.
