riscv: add asm/unistd.h UAPI header

2018-11-20T13:19:20+00:00

Marcin Juszkiewicz reported issues while generating syscall table for riscv using 4.20-rc1. The patch refactors our unistd.h files to match some other architectures. - Add asm/unistd.h UAPI header, which has __ARCH_WANT_NEW_STAT only for 64-bit - Remove asm/syscalls.h UAPI header and merge to asm/unistd.h - Adjust kernel asm/unistd.h So now asm/unistd.h UAPI header should show all syscalls for riscv. Before this, Makefile simply put `#include ` into generated asm/unistd.h UAPI header thus user didn't see: - __NR_riscv_flush_icache - __NR_newfstatat - __NR_fstat which are supported by riscv kernel.

RISC-V: Don't use a global include guard for uapi/asm/syscalls.h

2018-08-20T17:55:24+00:00

This file is expected to be included multiple times in the same file in order to allow the __SYSCALL macro to generate system call tables. With a global include guard we end up missing __NR_riscv_flush_icache in the syscall table, which results in icache flushes that escape the vDSO call to not actually do anything. The fix is to move to per-#define include guards, which allows the system call tables to actually be populated. Thanks to Macrus Comstedt for finding and fixing the bug!

RISC-V: Make __NR_riscv_flush_icache visible to userspace

2018-01-07T23:14:37+00:00

We were hoping to avoid making this visible to userspace, but it looks like we're going to have to because QEMU's user-mode emulation doesn't want to emulate a vDSO. Having vDSO-only system calls was a bit unothodox anyway, so I think in this case it's OK to just make the actual system call number public. This patch simply moves the definition of __NR_riscv_flush_icache availiable to userspace, which results in the deletion of the now empty vdso-syscalls.h. Changes since v1: * I've moved the definition into uapi/asm/syscalls.h rathen than uapi/asm/unistd.h. This allows me to keep asm/unistd.h, so we can keep the syscall table macros sane. * As a side effect of the above, this no longer disables all system calls on RISC-V. Whoops!
