signals: sys_ssetmask/sys_rt_sigsuspend should use set_current_blocked()

2011-07-27T19:53:36+00:00

sys_ssetmask(), sys_rt_sigsuspend() and compat_sys_rt_sigsuspend()
change ->blocked directly.  This is not correct, see the changelog in
e6fa16ab "signal: sigprocmask() should do retarget_shared_pending()"

Change them to use set_current_blocked().

Another change is that now we are doing ->saved_sigmask = ->blocked
lockless, it doesn't make any sense to do this under ->siglock.

KVM: Add compat ioctl for KVM_SET_SIGNAL_MASK

2011-07-12T10:16:17+00:00

KVM has an ioctl to define which signal mask should be used while running
inside VCPU_RUN. At least for big endian systems, this mask is different
on 32-bit and 64-bit systems (though the size is identical).

Add a compat wrapper that converts the mask to whatever the kernel accepts,
allowing 32-bit kvm user space to set signal masks.

This patch fixes qemu with --enable-io-thread on ppc64 hosts when running
32-bit user land.

compat: fixes to allow working with tile arch

2011-05-12T19:51:36+00:00

The existing  mechanism doesn't really provide
enough to create the 64-bit "compat" ABI properly in a generic way,
since the compat ABI is a mix of things were you can re-use the 64-bit
versions of syscalls and things where you need a compat wrapper.

To provide this in the most direct way possible, I added two new macros
to go along with the existing __SYSCALL and __SC_3264 macros: __SC_COMP
and SC_COMP_3264.  These macros take an additional argument, typically a
"compat_sys_xxx" function, which is passed to __SYSCALL if you define
__SYSCALL_COMPAT when including the header, resulting in a pointer to
the compat function being placed in the generated syscall table.

The change also adds some missing definitions to  so that
it actually has declarations for all the compat syscalls, since the
"[nr] = ##call" approach requires proper C declarations for all the
functions included in the syscall table.

Finally, compat.c defines compat_sys_sigpending() and
compat_sys_sigprocmask() even if the underlying architecture doesn't
request it, which tries to pull in undefined compat_old_sigset_t defines.
We need to guard those compat syscall definitions with appropriate
__ARCH_WANT_SYS_xxx ifdefs.

signal: introduce do_sigtimedwait() to factor out compat/native code

2011-04-28T11:01:38+00:00

Factor out the common code in sys_rt_sigtimedwait/compat_sys_rt_sigtimedwait
to the new helper, do_sigtimedwait().

Add the comment to document the extra tick we add to timespec_to_jiffies(ts),
thanks to Linus who explained this to me.

Perhaps it would be better to move compat_sys_rt_sigtimedwait() into
signal.c under CONFIG_COMPAT, then we can make do_sigtimedwait() static.

signal: sys_rt_sigtimedwait: simplify the timeout logic

2011-04-28T11:01:38+00:00

No functional changes, cleanup compat_sys_rt_sigtimedwait() and
sys_rt_sigtimedwait().

Calculate the timeout before we take ->siglock, this simplifies and
lessens the code. Use timespec_valid() to check the timespec.

posix-timers: Introduce a syscall for clock tuning.

2011-02-02T14:28:19+00:00

A new syscall is introduced that allows tuning of a POSIX clock. The
new call, clock_adjtime, takes two parameters, the clock ID and a
pointer to a struct timex. Any ADJTIMEX(2) operation may be requested
via this system call, but various POSIX clocks may or may not support
tuning.
