asm-generic: compat: Cleanup duplicate definitions

2022-04-26T20:35:54+00:00

There are 7 64bit architectures that support Linux COMPAT mode to run 32bit applications. A lot of definitions are duplicate: - COMPAT_USER_HZ - COMPAT_RLIM_INFINITY - COMPAT_OFF_T_MAX - __compat_uid_t, __compat_uid_t - compat_dev_t - compat_ipc_pid_t - struct compat_flock - struct compat_flock64 - struct compat_statfs - struct compat_ipc64_perm, compat_semid64_ds, compat_msqid64_ds, compat_shmid64_ds Cleanup duplicate definitions and merge them into asm-generic.

compat: consolidate the compat_flock{,64} definition

2022-04-26T20:35:28+00:00

Provide a single common definition for the compat_flock and compat_flock64 structures using the same tricks as for the native variants. Another extra define is added for the packing required on x86.

uapi: always define F_GETLK64/F_SETLK64/F_SETLKW64 in fcntl.h

2022-04-26T20:35:20+00:00

The F_GETLK64/F_SETLK64/F_SETLKW64 fcntl opcodes are only implemented for the 32-bit syscall APIs, but are also needed for compat handling on 64-bit kernels. Consolidate them in unistd.h instead of definining the internal compat definitions in compat.h, which is rather error prone (e.g. parisc gets the values wrong currently). Note that before this change they were never visible to userspace due to the fact that CONFIG_64BIT is only set for kernel builds.

arch: remove compat_alloc_user_space

2021-09-08T22:32:35+00:00

All users of compat_alloc_user_space() and copy_in_user() have been removed from the kernel, only a few functions in sparc remain that can be changed to calling arch_copy_in_user() instead.

compat: make linux/compat.h available everywhere

2021-07-23T13:20:24+00:00

Parts of linux/compat.h are under an #ifdef, but we end up using more of those over time, moving things around bit by bit. To get it over with once and for all, make all of this file uncondititonal now so it can be accessed everywhere. There are only a few types left that are in asm/compat.h but not yet in the asm-generic version, so add those in the process. This requires providing a few more types in asm-generic/compat.h that were not already there. The only tricky one is compat_sigset_t, which needs a little help on 32-bit architectures and for x86.

compat: provide compat_ptr() on all architectures

2020-01-03T08:32:51+00:00

In order to avoid needless #ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT checks, move the compat_ptr() definition to linux/compat.h where it can be seen by any file regardless of the architecture. Only s390 needs a special definition, this can use the self-#define trick we have elsewhere. Reviewed-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

asm-generic: Move common compat types to asm-generic/compat.h

2018-08-29T13:42:20+00:00

While converting compat system call handlers to work on 32-bit architectures, I found a number of types used in those handlers that are identical between all architectures. Let's move all the identical ones into asm-generic/compat.h to avoid having to add even more identical definitions of those types. For unknown reasons, mips defines __compat_gid32_t, __compat_uid32_t and compat_caddr_t as signed, while all others have them unsigned. This seems to be a mistake, but I'm leaving it alone here. The other types all differ by size or alignment on at least on architecture. compat_aio_context_t is currently defined in linux/compat.h but also needed for compat_sys_io_getevents(), so let's move it into the same place. While we still have not decided whether the 32-bit time handling will always use the compat syscalls, or in which form, I think this is a useful cleanup that we can merge regardless.

y2038: globally rename compat_time to old_time32

2018-08-27T12:48:48+00:00

Christoph Hellwig suggested a slightly different path for handling backwards compatibility with the 32-bit time_t based system calls: Rather than simply reusing the compat_sys_* entry points on 32-bit architectures unchanged, we get rid of those entry points and the compat_time types by renaming them to something that makes more sense on 32-bit architectures (which don't have a compat mode otherwise), and then share the entry points under the new name with the 64-bit architectures that use them for implementing the compatibility. The following types and interfaces are renamed here, and moved from linux/compat_time.h to linux/time32.h: old new --- --- compat_time_t old_time32_t struct compat_timeval struct old_timeval32 struct compat_timespec struct old_timespec32 struct compat_itimerspec struct old_itimerspec32 ns_to_compat_timeval() ns_to_old_timeval32() get_compat_itimerspec64() get_old_itimerspec32() put_compat_itimerspec64() put_old_itimerspec32() compat_get_timespec64() get_old_timespec32() compat_put_timespec64() put_old_timespec32() As we already have aliases in place, this patch addresses only the instances that are relevant to the system call interface in particular, not those that occur in device drivers and other modules. Those will get handled separately, while providing the 64-bit version of the respective interfaces. I'm not renaming the timex, rusage and itimerval structures, as we are still debating what the new interface will look like, and whether we will need a replacement at all. This also doesn't change the names of the syscall entry points, which can be done more easily when we actually switch over the 32-bit architectures to use them, at that point we need to change COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx to SYSCALL_DEFINEx with a new name, e.g. with a _time32 suffix.

y2038: mips: Extend sysvipc data structures

2018-04-20T14:20:04+00:00

MIPS is the weirdest case for sysvipc, because each of the three data structures is done differently: * msqid64_ds has padding in the right place so we could in theory extend this one to just have 64-bit values instead of time_t. As this does not work for most of the other combinations, we just handle it in the common manner though. * semid64_ds has no padding for 64-bit time_t, but has two reserved 'long' fields, which are sufficient to extend the sem_otime and sem_ctime fields to 64 bit. In order to do this, the libc implementation will have to copy the data into another structure that has the fields in a different order. MIPS is the only architecture with this problem, so this is best done in MIPS specific libc code. * shmid64_ds is slightly worse than that, because it has three time_t fields but only two unused 32-bit words. As a workaround, we extend each field only by 16 bits, ending up with 48-bit timestamps that user space again has to work around by itself. The compat versions of the data structures are changed in the same way. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann
