MIPS: Compat: Use 32-bit wrapper for compat_sys_futex.

2011-09-21T15:53:44+00:00

We can't trust userspace to pass signed-extend arguments. Not correctly sign-extended arguments to futex-wait result in architecturally undefined operation of 32-bit arithmetic instructions. For example, if 'val' is too big and bit-31 is 1, the caller may enter endless loop at: futex_wait_setup() { ... if (uval != val) { queue_unlock(q, *hb); ret = -EWOULDBLOCK; ... } Signed-off-by: Yong Zhang To: linux-mips@linux-mips.org To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/2714/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle

All Arch: remove linkage for sys_nfsservctl system call

2011-08-26T22:09:58+00:00

The nfsservctl system call is now gone, so we should remove all linkage for it. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

MIPS: Wire up sendmmsg and renumber setns syscall.

2011-07-20T22:12:10+00:00

Renumbering was necessary because I had already wired up setns(2) in the linux-mips.org tree in commit c3fce54644cabbb90700cc3acc040718a377f609 [MIPS: Wire up new sendmmsg syscall.] but the same syscall numbers were used by 7b21fddd087678a70ad64afc0f632e0f1071b092 [ns: Wire up the setns system call] resulting in a conflict.

ns: Wire up the setns system call

2011-05-28T17:48:39+00:00

32bit and 64bit on x86 are tested and working. The rest I have looked at closely and I can't find any problems. setns is an easy system call to wire up. It just takes two ints so I don't expect any weird architecture porting problems. While doing this I have noticed that we have some architectures that are very slow to get new system calls. cris seems to be the slowest where the last system calls wired up were preadv and pwritev. avr32 is weird in that recvmmsg was wired up but never declared in unistd.h. frv is behind with perf_event_open being the last syscall wired up. On h8300 the last system call wired up was epoll_wait. On m32r the last system call wired up was fallocate. mn10300 has recvmmsg as the last system call wired up. The rest seem to at least have syncfs wired up which was new in the 2.6.39. v2: Most of the architecture support added by Daniel Lezcano v3: ported to v2.6.36-rc4 by: Eric W. Biederman v4: Moved wiring up of the system call to another patch v5: ported to v2.6.39-rc6 v6: rebased onto parisc-next and net-next to avoid syscall conflicts. v7: ported to Linus's latest post 2.6.39 tree. > arch/blackfin/include/asm/unistd.h | 3 ++- > arch/blackfin/mach-common/entry.S | 1 + Acked-by: Mike Frysinger Oh - ia64 wiring looks good.

MIPS: Hook up name_to_handle_at, open_by_handle_at and clock_adjtime syscalls.

2011-03-25T17:45:20+00:00

These system calls we recently added. 32-bit ABIs need compat handling for sys_clock_adjtime(). o32 also needs compat handling for sys_open_by_handle_at(); Signed-off-by: David Daney To: linux-mips@linux-mips.org Patchwork: https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/2165/ Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle
