| * | | | [ARM] safer handling of syscall table paddingAl Viro2006-01-192-332/+333

So we have to pad syscall table with sys_ni_syscall and that's where the trouble begins. .rept pseudo-op wants a constant expression for number of repetitions and subtraction of two labels (before and after syscall table) doesn't always get simplified to constant early enough for .rept. If labels end up in different frags, we lose. And while the frag size is large enough (slightly below 4Kb), the syscall table is about 1/3 of that. We used to get away with that, but the recent changes had been enough to trigger the breakage. Proper fix is simple: have a macro (CALL(x)) to populate the table instead of using explicit .long x and the first time we include calls.S have it defined to .equ NR_syscalls,NR_syscalls+1. Then we can find the proper amount of padding on the first inclusion simply by looking at NR_syscalls at that time. And that will be constant, no matter what. Moreover, the same trick kills the need of having an estimate of padded NR_syscalls - it will be calculated for free at the same time.

Looking closely at the code, I found some possible issues in the way we setup the MDIO lines during suspend along with slight divergences from what Darwin does when resetting it that may explain the problem. That patch change these and the problem appear to be gone for me at least... I also fixed an mdelay -> msleep while I was at it to the pmac feature code that is called when toggling the PHY reset line since sungem doesn't call it in an atomic context anymore.

(2) Invokes it over to do_signal() when TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is set. (3) Makes do_signal() support TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK, using the signal mask saved in current->saved_sigmask. (4) Discards sys_rt_sigsuspend() from the arch, using the generic one instead. (5) Makes sys_sigsuspend() save the signal mask and set TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK rather than attempting to fudge the return registers. (6) Makes sys_sigsuspend() return -ERESTARTNOHAND rather than looping intrinsically. (7) Makes setup_frame(), setup_rt_frame() and handle_signal() return 0 or -EFAULT rather than true/false to be consistent with the rest of the kernel. Due to the fact do_signal() is then only called from one place: (8) Makes do_signal() no longer have a return value is it was just being ignored; force_sig() takes care of this. (9) Discards the old sigmask argument to do_signal() as it's no longer necessary. (10) Makes do_signal() static. (11) Marks the second argument to do_notify_resume() as unused. The unused argument should remain in the middle as the arguments are passed in as registers, and the ordering is specific in entry.S Given the way do_signal() is now no longer called from sys_{,rt_}sigsuspend(), they no longer need access to the exception frame, and so can just take arguments normally.

(5) Makes sys_sigsuspend() save the signal mask and set TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK rather than attempting to fudge the return registers. (6) Makes sys_sigsuspend() return -ERESTARTNOHAND rather than looping intrinsically. (7) Makes setup_frame(), setup_rt_frame() and handle_signal() return 0 or -EFAULT rather than true/false to be consistent with the rest of the kernel. Due to the fact do_signal() is then only called from one place: (8) Make do_signal() no longer have a return value is it was just being ignored; force_sig() takes care of this. (9) Discards the old sigmask argument to do_signal() as it's no longer necessary. This patch depends on the FRV signalling patches as well as the sys_rt_sigsuspend patch.

* | | | [PATCH] Generic sys_rt_sigsuspend()David Woodhouse2006-01-182-87/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK flag allows us to have a generic implementation of sys_rt_sigsuspend() instead of duplicating it for each architecture. This provides such an implementation and makes arch/powerpc use it. It also tidies up the ppc32 sys_sigsuspend() to use TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK.

These functions, openat etc, have been discussed on numerous occasions. They are needed to implement race-free filesystem traversal, they are necessary to implement a virtual per-thread current working directory (think multi-threaded backup software), etc. We have in glibc today implementations of the interfaces which use the /proc/self/fd magic. But this code is rather expensive. Here are some results (similar to what Jim Meyering posted before). The test creates a deep directory hierarchy on a tmpfs filesystem. Then rm -fr is used to remove all directories. Without syscall support I get this: real 0m31.921s user 0m0.688s sys 0m31.234s With syscall support the results are much better: real 0m20.699s user 0m0.536s sys 0m20.149s The interfaces are for obvious reasons currently not much used. But they'll be used. coreutils (and Jeff's posixutils) are already using them. Furthermore, code like ftw/fts in libc (maybe even glob) will also start using them. I expect a patch to make follow soon. Every program which is walking the filesystem tree will benefit.
