* ARM: convert to generated system call tablesRussell King2016-10-181-6/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Convert ARM to use a similar mechanism to x86 to generate the unistd.h system call numbers and the various kernel system call tables. This means that rather than having to edit three places (asm/unistd.h for the total number of system calls, uapi/asm/unistd.h for the system call numbers, and arch/arm/kernel/calls.S for the call table) we have only one place to edit, making the process much more simple. The scripts have knowledge of the table padding requirements, so there's no need to worry about __NR_syscalls not fitting within the immediate constant field of ALU instructions anymore.

| * ARM: remove user cmpxchg syscallRussell King2015-10-031-7/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Mark Brand reports that a NEEDS_SYSCALL_FOR_CMPXCHG enabled kernel would open a security hole in the ghost syscall used to implement cmpxchg, as it fails to validate the user pointer. However, in order for this option to be enabled, you'd need to be building a pre-ARMv6 kernel with SMP support. There is only one system known which fits that, which is an early ARM SMP FPGA implementation based on the ARM926T. In any case, the Kconfig does not allow SMP to be enabled for pre-ARMv6 systems. Moreover, even if NEEDS_SYSCALL_FOR_CMPXCHG were to be enabled, the kernel would not build as __ARM_NR_cmpxchg64 is not defined. The simple answer is to remove the buggy code.

* sched: Add new scheduler syscalls to support an extended scheduling ↵Dario Faggioli2014-01-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | parameters ABI Add the syscalls needed for supporting scheduling algorithms with extended scheduling parameters (e.g., SCHED_DEADLINE). In general, it makes possible to specify a periodic/sporadic task, that executes for a given amount of runtime at each instance, and is scheduled according to the urgency of their own timing constraints, i.e.: - a (maximum/typical) instance execution time, - a minimum interval between consecutive instances, - a time constraint by which each instance must be completed. Thus, both the data structure that holds the scheduling parameters of the tasks and the system calls dealing with it must be extended. Unfortunately, modifying the existing struct sched_param would break the ABI and result in potentially serious compatibility issues with legacy binaries. For these reasons, this patch: - defines the new struct sched_attr, containing all the fields that are necessary for specifying a task in the computational model described above; - defines and implements the new scheduling related syscalls that manipulate it, i.e., sched_setattr() and sched_getattr(). Syscalls are introduced for x86 (32 and 64 bits) and ARM only, as a proof of concept and for developing and testing purposes. Making them available on other architectures is straightforward. Since no "user" for these new parameters is introduced in this patch, the implementation of the new system calls is just identical to their already existing counterpart. Future patches that implement scheduling policies able to exploit the new data structure must also take care of modifying the sched_*attr() calls accordingly with their own purposes.

The rest I have looked at closely and I can't find any problems. setns is an easy system call to wire up. It just takes two ints so I don't expect any weird architecture porting problems. While doing this I have noticed that we have some architectures that are very slow to get new system calls. cris seems to be the slowest where the last system calls wired up were preadv and pwritev. avr32 is weird in that recvmmsg was wired up but never declared in unistd.h. frv is behind with perf_event_open being the last syscall wired up. On h8300 the last system call wired up was epoll_wait. On m32r the last system call wired up was fallocate. mn10300 has recvmmsg as the last system call wired up. The rest seem to at least have syncfs wired up which was new in the 2.6.39. v2: Most of the architecture support added by Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com> v3: ported to v2.6.36-rc4 by: Eric W.

The only non-trivial issue here is the u64 argument to sys_fanotify_mark(), but it is the 3rd argument and thus passed in r2/r3 in both kernel and user space, so it causes no problems.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sys_accept4() was added in kernel 2.6.28, but ARM was not updated to include it. The number and types of parameters is such that no ARM-specific processing is needed, so wiring up sys_accept4() just requires defining __NR_accept4 and adding a direct call in the syscall entry table. Tested with an EABI 2.6.35 kernel and Ulrich Drepper's original accept4() test program, modified to define __NR_accept4 for ARM. Using the updated unistd.h also eliminates a warning then building glibc (2.10.2 and newer) about accept4() being unimplemented.

* Add generic sys_ipc wrapperChristoph Hellwig2010-03-121-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a generic implementation of the ipc demultiplexer syscall. Except for s390 and sparc64 all implementations of the sys_ipc are nearly identical. There are slight differences in the types of the parameters, where mips and powerpc as the only 64-bit architectures with sys_ipc use unsigned long for the "third" argument as it gets casted to a pointer later, while it traditionally is an "int" like most other paramters. frv goes even further and uses unsigned long for all parameters execept for "ptr" which is a pointer type everywhere. The change from int to unsigned long for "third" and back to "int" for the others on frv should be fine due to the in-register calling conventions for syscalls (we already had a similar issue with the generic sys_ptrace), but I'd prefer to have the arch maintainers looks over this in details. Except for that h8300, m68k and m68knommu lack an impplementation of the semtimedop sub call which this patch adds, and various architectures have gets used - at least on i386 it seems superflous as the compat code on x86-64 and ia64 doesn't even bother to implement it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events! In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging, monitoring, analysis facility. Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem 'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and less appropriate. All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion) The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well. Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and suggested a rename. User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to keep the size down.) This patch has been generated via the following script: FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config') sed -i \ -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \ -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \ -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \ -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \ -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \ -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \ $FILES for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g') mv $N $M done FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*) sed -i \ -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \ -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \ -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \ -e 's/counter/event/g' \ -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \ $FILES ... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches is the smallest: the end of the merge window. Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch. ( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but in case there's something left where 'counter' would be better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. ) Suggested-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Reviewed-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: "David S.

* ARM: 5677/1: ARM support for TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK/pselect6/ppoll/epoll_pwaitMikael Pettersson2009-08-151-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK to ARM's signal handling, which allows to hook up the pselect6, ppoll, and epoll_pwait syscalls on ARM. Tested here with eabi userspace and a test program with a deliberate race between a child's exit and the parent's sigprocmask/select sequence. Using sys_pselect6() instead of sigprocmask/select reliably prevents the race. The other arch's support for TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK has evolved over time: In 2.6.16: - add TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK which parallels TIF_SIGPENDING - test both when checking for pending signal [changed later] - reimplement sys_sigsuspend() to use current->saved_sigmask, TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK [changed later], and -ERESTARTNOHAND; ditto for sys_rt_sigsuspend(), but drop private code and use common code via __ARCH_WANT_SYS_RT_SIGSUSPEND; - there are now no "extra" calls to do_signal() so its oldset parameter is always &current->blocked so need not be passed, also its return value is changed to void - change handle_signal() to return 0/-errno - change do_signal() to honor TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK: + get oldset from current->saved_sigmask if TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is set + if handle_signal() was successful then clear TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK + if no signal was delivered and TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is set then clear it and restore the sigmask - hook up sys_pselect6() and sys_ppoll() In 2.6.19: - hook up sys_epoll_pwait() In 2.6.26: - allow archs to override how TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is implemented; default set_restore_sigmask() sets both TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK and TIF_SIGPENDING; archs need now just test TIF_SIGPENDING again when checking for pending signal work; some archs now implement TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK as a secondary/non-atomic thread flag bit - call set_restore_sigmask() in sys_sigsuspend() instead of setting TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK In 2.6.29-rc: - kill sys_pselect7() which no arch wanted So for 2.6.31-rc6/ARM this patch does the following: - Add TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK. Use the generic set_restore_sigmask() which sets both TIF_SIGPENDING and TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK, so TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK need not claim one of the scarce low thread flags, and existing TIF_SIGPENDING and _TIF_WORK_MASK tests need not be extended for TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK. - sys_sigsuspend() is reimplemented to use current->saved_sigmask and set_restore_sigmask(), making it identical to most other archs - The private code for sys_rt_sigsuspend() is removed, instead generic code supplies it via __ARCH_WANT_SYS_RT_SIGSUSPEND. - sys_sigsuspend() and sys_rt_sigsuspend() no longer need a pt_regs parameter, so their assembly code wrappers are removed. - handle_signal() is changed to return 0 on success or -errno. - The oldset parameter to do_signal() is now redundant and removed, and the return value is now also redundant and changed to void. - do_signal() is changed to honor TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK: + get oldset from current->saved_sigmask if TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is set + if handle_signal() was successful then clear TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK + if no signal was delivered and TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is set then clear it and restore the sigmask - Hook up sys_pselect6, sys_ppoll, and sys_epoll_pwait.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Kernel 2.6.30-rc1 added sys_preadv and sys_pwritev to most archs but not ARM, resulting in <stdin>:1421:2: warning: #warning syscall preadv not implemented <stdin>:1425:2: warning: #warning syscall pwritev not implemented This patch adds sys_preadv and sys_pwritev to ARM. These syscalls simply take five long-sized parameters, so they should have no calling-convention/ABI issues in the kernel. Tested on armv5tel eabi using a preadv/pwritev test program posted on linuxppc-dev earlier this month. It would be nice to get this into the kernel before 2.6.30 final, so that glibc's kernel version feature test for these syscalls doesn't have to special-case ARM.
