I have this error:
bash: /sbin/ldconfig: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

because /sbin/ldconfig is:
ELF 64-bit MSB executable, IBM S/390, version 1 (GNU/Linux),
statically linked, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0,
BuildID[sha1]=90b64604014aafac9c1a0623b1cf447281d1a382, stripped

OS ABI is GNU/linux

"/bin/ls" works well:

ELF 64-bit MSB shared object, IBM S/390, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked,
interpreter /lib/ld64.so.1, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0,
BuildID[sha1]=be9b19143d4657678846f6e5277383071fc1059a, stripped

OS ABI is SYSV

To be able to execute ldconfig, this patch modifies s390x binfmt mask
to ignore the OS ABI value (EI_OSABI, byte 7).

If I've got that right, the OSABI field should either be 0 for
"No extensions or unspecified" (which is then printed  by "file"
as SYSV) or 3 for "GNU/Linux".
Thus wouldn't it be better to use a mask of 0xfc here instead, so
that we refuse at least everything with a value > 3 here?

Also I wonder whether i386 has the same problem, too?

No, because with this mask you allow HPUX and NetBSD (See
/usr/include/elf.h), I don't think it's really better. The simplest way
to manage this is to ignore the field. A better way should be to have
two binfmt entries, one for SYSV and one for GNU/Linux, but as our goal
is to run linux binaries on linux system, is it worth it?

Most of the other archs use already 0.

Yes, I think all targets can have the same problem (I have with m68k,
but with the gcc-7/cc1 binary).

Thanks,
Laurent

This was my first thought when I reviewed your patch, this indeed looks
cleaner and would be self-explanatory.

Phil.
