powerpc: Use common syscall handler type

2022-09-28T09:22:09Z

Cause syscall handlers to be typed as follows when called indirectly throughout the kernel. This is to allow for better type checking. typedef long (*syscall_fn)(unsigned long, unsigned long, unsigned long, unsigned long, unsigned long, unsigned long); Since both 32 and 64-bit abis allow for at least the first six machine-word length parameters to a function to be passed by registers, even handlers which admit fewer than six parameters may be viewed as having the above type. Coercing syscalls to syscall_fn requires a cast to void* to avoid -Wcast-function-type. Fixup comparisons in VDSO to avoid pointer-integer comparison. Introduce explicit cast on systems with SPUs.

powerpc/syscalls: switch to generic syscalltbl.sh

2021-04-14T13:04:16Z

Many architectures duplicate similar shell scripts. This commit converts powerpc to use scripts/syscalltbl.sh. This also unifies syscall_table_32.h and syscall_table_c32.h.

powerpc/syscalls: Use the number when building SPU syscall table

2020-06-17T13:20:03Z

Currently the macro that inserts entries into the SPU syscall table doesn't actually use the "nr" (syscall number) parameter. This does work, but it relies on the exact right number of syscall entries being emitted in order for the syscal numbers to line up with the array entries. If for example we had two entries with the same syscall number we wouldn't get an error, it would just cause all subsequent syscalls to be off by one in the spu_syscall_table. So instead change the macro to assign to the specific entry of the array, meaning any numbering overlap will be caught by the compiler.

powerpc: remove nargs from __SYSCALL

2019-03-02T03:43:05Z

The __SYSCALL macro's arguments are system call number, system call entry name and number of arguments for the system call. Argument- nargs in __SYSCALL(nr, entry, nargs) is neither calculated nor used anywhere. So it would be better to keep the implementaion as __SYSCALL(nr, entry). This will unifies the implementation with some other architetures too. Signed-off-by: Firoz Khan Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman

powerpc: generate uapi header and system call table files

2018-12-21T03:46:50Z

System call table generation script must be run to gener- ate unistd_32/64.h and syscall_table_32/64/c32/spu.h files. This patch will have changes which will invokes the script. This patch will generate unistd_32/64.h and syscall_table- _32/64/c32/spu.h files by the syscall table generation script invoked by parisc/Makefile and the generated files against the removed files must be identical. The generated uapi header file will be included in uapi/- asm/unistd.h and generated system call table header file will be included by kernel/systbl.S file.

powerpc/syscalls: Add COMPAT_SPU_NEW() macro

2018-05-10T13:25:14Z

Currently the select system call is wired up with the SYSX_SPU() macro. The SYSX_SPU() is not handled by systbl_chk.c, which means the syscall number for select is not checked. That hides the fact that the syscall number for select is actually __NR__newselect not __NR_select. In a following patch we'd like to drop ppc32_select() which means select will become a regular COMPAT_SYS_SPU() syscall. But COMPAT_SYS_SPU() can't deal with the fact that the syscall number is actually __NR__newselect. We also can't just redefine __NR_select because that's still used for the old select call. So add a new COMPAT_NEW_SPU() that does the same thing as COMPAT_SYS_SPU() except it encodes that we're using the new number. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman

powerpc: Add a proper syscall for switching endianness

2015-03-28T11:03:40Z

We currently have a "special" syscall for switching endianness. This is syscall number 0x1ebe, which is handled explicitly in the 64-bit syscall exception entry. That has a few problems, firstly the syscall number is outside of the usual range, which confuses various tools. For example strace doesn't recognise the syscall at all. Secondly it's handled explicitly as a special case in the syscall exception entry, which is complicated enough without it. As a first step toward removing the special syscall, we need to add a regular syscall that implements the same functionality. The logic is simple, it simply toggles the MSR_LE bit in the userspace MSR. This is the same as the special syscall, with the caveat that the special syscall clobbers fewer registers. This version clobbers r9-r12, XER, CTR, and CR0-1,5-7. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman
