2012-10-12x86, um: convert to saner kernel_execve() semanticsAl Viro
Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-09-30x86, um/x86: switch to generic sys_execve and kernel_execveAl Viro
32bit wrapper is lost on that; 64bit one is *not*, since we need to arrange for full pt_regs on stack when we call sys_execve() and we need to load callee-saved ones from there afterwards. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-07-30ipc: use Kconfig options for __ARCH_WANT_[COMPAT_]IPC_PARSE_VERSIONWill Deacon
Rather than #define the options manually in the architecture code, add Kconfig options for them and select them there instead. This also allows us to select the compat IPC version parsing automatically for platforms using the old compat IPC interface.

2012-04-23x32: Check __ILP32__ instead of __LP64__ for x32H.J. Lu
Check __LP64__ isn't a reliable way to tell if we are compiling for x32 since __LP64__ isnn't specified by x86-64 psABI. Not all x86-64 compilers define __LP64__, which was added to GCC 3.3. The updated x32 psABI: https://sites.google.com/site/x32abi/documents definse _ILP32 and __ILP32__ for x32. GCC trunk and 4.7 branch have been updated to define _ILP32 and __ILP32__ for x32. This patch replaces __LP64__ check with __ILP32__. Signed-off-by: H.J. Lu <hjl.tools@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
2012-02-20x32: Handle the x32 system call flagH. Peter Anvin
x32 shares most system calls with x86-64, but unfortunately some subsystem (the input subsystem is the chief offender) which require is_compat() when operating with a 32-bit userspace. The input system actually has text files in sysfs whose meaning is dependent on sizeof(long) in userspace! We could solve this by having two completely disjoint system call tables; requiring that each system call be duplicated. This patch takes a different approach: we add a flag to the system call number; this flag doesn't affect the system call dispatch but requests compat treatment from affected subsystems for the duration of the system call. The change of cmpq to cmpl is safe since it immediately follows the and. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
2012-02-20x32: Generate <asm/unistd_64_x32.h>H. Peter Anvin
Generate macros for the *kernel* code to use to refer to x32 system calls. These have an __NR_x32_ prefix and do not include __X32_SYSCALL_BIT. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
2012-02-20x32: Generate <asm/unistd_x32.h>H. Peter Anvin
Generate <asm/unistd_x32.h>; this exports x32 system call numbers to user space. [ v2: Enclose all arguments to syshdr in '' so empty arguments aren't dropped on the floor. ] Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
2012-01-19x86, syscall: Need __ARCH_WANT_SYS_IPC for 32 bitsH. Peter Anvin
In checkin 303395ac3bf3 x86: Generate system call tables and unistd_*.h from tables the feature macros in <asm/unistd.h> were unified between 32 and 64 bits. Unfortunately 32 bits requires __ARCH_WANT_SYS_IPC and this was inadvertently dropped.

2011-11-17x86: Generate system call tables and unistd_*.h from tablesH. Peter Anvin
Generate system call tables and unistd_*.h automatically from the tables in arch/x86/syscalls. All other information, like NR_syscalls, is auto-generated, some of which is in asm-offsets_*.c. This allows us to keep all the system call information in one place, and allows for kernel space and user space to see different information; this is currently used for the ia32 system call numbers when building the 64-bit kernel, but will be used by the x32 ABI in the near future. This also removes some gratuitious differences between i386, x86-64 and ia32; in particular, now all system call tables are generated with the same mechanism. Cc: H. J.
