MIPS: 64-bit: Fix o32 lookup_dcookie syscall

2009-11-02T11:00:02+00:00

An o32 aplication passes a 64-bit value in a pair of registers; a 64-bit
kernel expects a 64-bit argument in a single register.

MIPS: Compat: Zero upper 32-bit of offset_high and offset_low.

2009-03-30T12:49:40+00:00

Through sys_llseek() arguably should do exactly that it doesn't which
means llseek(2) will fail for o32 processes if offset_low has bit 31 set.

As suggested by Heiko Carstens.

generic compat_sys_ustat

2009-03-27T18:43:57+00:00

Due to a different size of ino_t ustat needs a compat handler, but
currently only x86 and mips provide one.  Add a generic compat_sys_ustat
and switch all architectures over to it.  Instead of doing various
user copy hacks compat_sys_ustat just reimplements sys_ustat as
it's trivial.  This was suggested by Arnd Bergmann.

Found by Eric Sandeen when running xfstests/017 on ppc64, which causes
stack smashing warnings on RHEL/Fedora due to the too large amount of
data writen by the syscall.

compat: generic compat get/settimeofday

2008-10-16T18:21:33+00:00

Nothing arch specific in get/settimeofday.  The details of the timeval
conversion varied a little from arch to arch, but all with the same
results.

Also add an extern declaration for sys_tz to linux/time.h because externs
in .c files are fowned upon.  I'll kill the externs in various other files
in a sparate patch.

compat: move cp_compat_stat to common code

2008-10-16T18:21:33+00:00

struct stat / compat_stat is the same on all architectures, so
cp_compat_stat should be, too.

Turns out it is, except that various architectures have slightly and some
high2lowuid/high2lowgid or the direct assignment instead of the
SET_UID/SET_GID that expands to the correct one anyway.

This patch replaces the arch-specific cp_compat_stat implementations with
a common one based on the x86-64 one.
