ARM: 9108/1: oabi-compat: rework epoll_wait/epoll_pwait emulation

2021-08-20T10:39:26+00:00

The epoll_wait() system call wrapper is one of the remaining users of the set_fs() infrasturcture for Arm. Changing it to not require set_fs() is rather complex unfortunately. The approach I'm taking here is to allow architectures to override the code that copies the output to user space, and let the oabi-compat implementation check whether it is getting called from an EABI or OABI system call based on the thread_info->syscall value. The in_oabi_syscall() check here mirrors the in_compat_syscall() and in_x32_syscall() helpers for 32-bit compat implementations on other architectures. Overall, the amount of code goes down, at least with the newly added sys_oabi_epoll_pwait() helper getting removed again. The downside is added complexity in the source code for the native implementation. There should be no difference in runtime performance except for Arm kernels with CONFIG_OABI_COMPAT enabled that now have to go through an external function call to check which of the two variants to use.

ARM: 9109/1: oabi-compat: add epoll_pwait handler

2021-08-20T10:39:26+00:00

The epoll_wait() syscall has a special version for OABI compat mode to convert the arguments to the EABI structure layout of the kernel. However, the later epoll_pwait() syscall was added in arch/arm in linux-2.6.32 without this conversion. Use the same kind of handler for both.

exit/bdflush: Remove the deprecated bdflush system call

2021-07-12T20:17:47+00:00

The bdflush system call has been deprecated for a very long time. Recently Michael Schmitz tested[1] and found that the last known caller of of the bdflush system call is unaffected by it's removal. Since the code is not needed delete it.
