Add prototype for sigset_from_compat()

2006-10-02T21:05:20+00:00

Duh.  I screwed up editing David Howells patch in commit
3f2e05e90e0846c42626e3d272454f26be34a1bc, and the actual declaration for
the sigset_from_compat() function went missing. My bad.

Olaf Hering saved the day and noticed that I'm a moron.

[PATCH] BLOCK: Revert patch to hack around undeclared sigset_t in linux/compat.h

2006-10-02T15:03:31+00:00

Revert Andrew Morton's patch to temporarily hack around the lack of a
declaration of sigset_t in linux/compat.h to make the block-disablement
patches build on IA64.  This got accidentally pushed to Linus and should
be fixed in a different manner.

Also make linux/compat.h #include asm/signal.h to gain a definition of
sigset_t so that it can externally declare sigset_from_compat().

This has been compile-tested for i386, x86_64, ia64, mips, mips64, frv, ppc and
ppc64 and run-tested on frv.

[PATCH] x86_64: Add compat_printk and sysctl to turn off compat layer warnings

2006-06-26T17:48:16+00:00

Sometimes e.g. with crashme the compat layer warnings can be noisy.
Add a way to turn them off by gating all output through compat_printk
that checks a global sysctl. The default is not changed.

[PATCH] lightweight robust futexes: compat

32-bit syscall compatibility support.  (This patch also moves all futex
related compat functionality into kernel/futex_compat.c.)

[PATCH] create struct compat_timex and use it everywhere

2006-03-26T16:56:57+00:00

We had a copy of the compatibility version of struct timex in each 64 bit
architecture.  This patch just creates a global one and replaces all the
usages of the old ones.

[PATCH] select: fix returned timeval

2006-02-12T05:41:11+00:00

With David Woodhouse 

select() presently has a habit of increasing the value of the user's
`timeout' argument on return.

We were writing back a timeout larger than the original.  We _deliberately_
round up, since we know we must wait at _least_ as long as the caller asks
us to.

The patch adds a couple of helper functions for magnitude comparison of
timespecs and of timevals, and uses them to prevent the various poll and
select functions from returning a timeout which is larger than the one which
was passed in.

The patch also fixes a bug in compat_sys_pselect7(): it was adding the new
timeout value to the old one and was returning that.  It should just return
the new timeout value.

(We have various handy timespec/timeval-to-from-nsec conversion functions in
time.h.  But this code open-codes it all).

[PATCH] compat: be more consistent about [ug]id_t

2005-09-07T23:57:19+00:00

When I first wrote the compat layer patches, I was somewhat cavalier about
the definition of compat_uid_t and compat_gid_t (or maybe I just
misunderstood :-)).  This patch makes the compat types much more consistent
with the types we are being compatible with and hopefully will fix a few
bugs along the way.

	compat type		type in compat arch
	__compat_[ug]id_t	__kernel_[ug]id_t
	__compat_[ug]id32_t	__kernel_[ug]id32_t
	compat_[ug]id_t		[ug]id_t

The difference is that compat_uid_t is always 32 bits (for the archs we
care about) but __compat_uid_t may be 16 bits on some.
