ARM: wire up process_vm_writev and process_vm_readv syscalls

2011-11-17T16:58:00+00:00

These two syscalls were introduced during the last merge window.
Add the entries into the ARM call tables for them.

ARM: nommu: fix warning with checksyscalls.sh

2011-09-17T11:50:57+00:00

  CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh
:46:1: warning: "__IGNORE_migrate_pages" redefined
In file included from :2:
arch/arm/include/asm/unistd.h:482:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition

This is caused because we define __IGNORE_migrate_pages to be 1, but
in the case of nommu, it's defined to be empty.  Fix this by just
defining the __IGNORE_ symbols to be empty.

Merge branch 'setns'

2011-05-28T17:51:01+00:00

* setns:
  ns: Wire up the setns system call

Done as a merge to make it easier to fix up conflicts in arm due to
addition of sendmmsg system call

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.

ARM: add sendmmsg syscall

2011-05-26T11:12:13+00:00

Commit 228e548e (net: Add sendmmsg socket system call) added the new
sendmmsg syscall.  Add this to the syscall table for ARM.

ARM: 6343/1: wire up fanotify and prlimit64 syscalls on ARM

2010-09-01T09:06:08+00:00

The 2.6.36-rc kernel added three new system calls:
fanotify_init, fanotify_mark, and prlimit64.  This patch
wires them up on ARM.

The only non-trivial issue here is the u64 argument to
sys_fanotify_mark(), but it is the 3rd argument and thus
passed in r2/r3 in both kernel and user space, so it causes
no problems.

Tested with a 2.6.36-rc2 EABI kernel on an ixp4xx machine.

ARM: 6329/1: wire up sys_accept4() on ARM

2010-08-15T21:04:23+00:00

sys_accept4() was added in kernel 2.6.28, but ARM was not updated
to include it.  The number and types of parameters is such that
no ARM-specific processing is needed, so wiring up sys_accept4()
just requires defining __NR_accept4 and adding a direct call in
the syscall entry table.

Tested with an EABI 2.6.35 kernel and Ulrich Drepper's original
accept4() test program, modified to define __NR_accept4 for ARM.

Using the updated unistd.h also eliminates a warning then building
glibc (2.10.2 and newer) about accept4() being unimplemented.

Add generic sys_ipc wrapper

2010-03-12T23:52:32+00:00

Add a generic implementation of the ipc demultiplexer syscall.  Except for
s390 and sparc64 all implementations of the sys_ipc are nearly identical.

There are slight differences in the types of the parameters, where mips
and powerpc as the only 64-bit architectures with sys_ipc use unsigned
long for the "third" argument as it gets casted to a pointer later, while
it traditionally is an "int" like most other paramters.  frv goes even
further and uses unsigned long for all parameters execept for "ptr" which
is a pointer type everywhere.  The change from int to unsigned long for
"third" and back to "int" for the others on frv should be fine due to the
in-register calling conventions for syscalls (we already had a similar
issue with the generic sys_ptrace), but I'd prefer to have the arch
maintainers looks over this in details.

Except for that h8300, m68k and m68knommu lack an impplementation of the
semtimedop sub call which this patch adds, and various architectures have
gets used - at least on i386 it seems superflous as the compat code on
x86-64 and ia64 doesn't even bother to implement it.
