x86-64 strncpy: Properly handle the length parameter [BZ #24097]
On x32, the size_t parameter may be passed in the lower 32 bits of a 64-bit register with the non-zero upper 32 bits. The string/memory functions written in assembly can only use the lower 32 bits of a 64-bit register as length or must clear the upper 32 bits before using the full 64-bit register for length. This pach fixes strncpy for x32. Tested on x86-64 and x32. On x86-64, libc.so is the same with and withou the fix. [BZ #24097] CVE-2019-6488 * sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strcpy-sse2-unaligned.S: Use RDX_LP for length. * sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strcpy-ssse3.S: Likewise. * sysdeps/x86_64/x32/Makefile (tests): Add tst-size_t-strncpy. * sysdeps/x86_64/x32/tst-size_t-strncpy.c: New file. (cherry picked from commit c7c54f65b080affb87a1513dee449c8ad6143c8b)
