powerpc: Use generic fallocate compatibility syscall

2022-09-26T13:00:15Z

The powerpc fallocate compat syscall handler is identical to the generic implementation provided by commit 59c10c52f573f ("riscv: compat: syscall: Add compat_sys_call_table implementation"), and as such can be removed in favour of the generic implementation. A future patch series will replace more architecture-defined syscall handlers with generic implementations, dependent on introducing generic implementations that are compatible with powerpc and arm's parameter reorderings.

powerpc/syscalls: Remove NRexit

2021-08-23T09:28:20Z

__NR__exit is nowhere used. On most architectures it was removed by commit 135ab6ec8fda ("[PATCH] remove remaining errno and __KERNEL_SYSCALLS__ references") but not on powerpc. powerpc removed __KERNEL_SYSCALLS__ in commit 3db03b4afb3e ("[PATCH] rename the provided execve functions to kernel_execve"), but __NR__exit was left over.

powerpc: Add back __ARCH_WANT_SYS_LLSEEK macro

2020-04-02T13:09:59Z

This partially reverts commit caf6f9c8a326 ("asm-generic: Remove unneeded __ARCH_WANT_SYS_LLSEEK macro") When CONFIG_COMPAT is disabled on ppc64 the kernel does not build. There is resistance to both removing the llseek syscall from the 64bit syscall tables and building the llseek interface unconditionally.

powerpc: Wire up clone3 syscall

2019-07-28T23:34:27Z

Wire up the new clone3 syscall added in commit 7f192e3cd316 ("fork: add clone3"). This requires a ppc_clone3 wrapper, in order to save the non-volatile GPRs before calling into the generic syscall code. Otherwise we hit the BUG_ON in CHECK_FULL_REGS in copy_thread().

y2038: rename old time and utime syscalls

2019-02-06T23:13:28Z

The time, stime, utime, utimes, and futimesat system calls are only used on older architectures, and we do not provide y2038 safe variants of them, as they are replaced by clock_gettime64, clock_settime64, and utimensat_time64. However, for consistency it seems better to have the 32-bit architectures that still use them call the "time32" entry points (leaving the traditional handlers for the 64-bit architectures), like we do for system calls that now require two versions. Note: We used to always define __ARCH_WANT_SYS_TIME and __ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME and only set __ARCH_WANT_COMPAT_SYS_TIME and __ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME32 for compat mode on 64-bit kernels. Now this is reversed: only 64-bit architectures set __ARCH_WANT_SYS_TIME/UTIME, while we need __ARCH_WANT_SYS_TIME32/UTIME32 for 32-bit architectures and compat mode. The resulting asm/unistd.h changes look a bit counterintuitive. This is only a cleanup patch and it should not change any behavior.

powerpc: add __NR_syscalls along with NR_syscalls

2018-12-21T03:46:50Z

NR_syscalls macro holds the number of system call exist in powerpc architecture. We have to change the value of NR_syscalls, if we add or delete a system call. One of the patch in this patch series has a script which will generate a uapi header based on syscall.tbl file. The syscall.tbl file contains the number of system call information. So we have two option to update NR_syscalls value. 1. Update NR_syscalls in asm/unistd.h manually by count- ing the no.of system calls. No need to update NR_sys- calls until we either add a new system call or delete existing system call. 2. We can keep this feature in above mentioned script, that will count the number of syscalls and keep it in a generated file. In this case we don't need to expli- citly update NR_syscalls in asm/unistd.h file. The 2nd option will be the recommended one. For that, I added the __NR_syscalls macro in uapi/asm/unistd.h along with NR_syscalls asm/unistd.h. The macro __NR_syscalls also added for making the name convention same across all architecture. While __NR_syscalls isn't strictly part of the uapi, having it as part of the generated header to simplifies the implementation. We also need to enclose this macro with #ifdef __KERNEL__ to avoid side effects. Signed-off-by: Firoz Khan Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman

y2038: utimes: Rework #ifdef guards for compat syscalls

2018-08-29T13:42:23Z

After changing over to 64-bit time_t syscalls, many architectures will want compat_sys_utimensat() but not respective handlers for utime(), utimes() and futimesat(). This adds a new __ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME32 to complement __ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME. For now, all 64-bit architectures that support CONFIG_COMPAT set it, but future 64-bit architectures will not (tile would not have needed it either, but got removed). As older 32-bit architectures get converted to using CONFIG_64BIT_TIME, they will have to use __ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME32 instead of __ARCH_WANT_SYS_UTIME. Architectures using the generic syscall ABI don't need either of them as they never had a utime syscall. Since the compat_utimbuf structure is now required outside of CONFIG_COMPAT, I'm moving it into compat_time.h.
