syscalls: fix compat_sys_io_pgetevents_time64 usage

2024-07-05T07:31:59+00:00

commit d3882564a77c21eb746ba5364f3fa89b88de3d61 upstream. Using sys_io_pgetevents() as the entry point for compat mode tasks works almost correctly, but misses the sign extension for the min_nr and nr arguments. This was addressed on parisc by switching to compat_sys_io_pgetevents_time64() in commit 6431e92fc827 ("parisc: io_pgetevents_time64() needs compat syscall in 32-bit compat mode"), as well as by using more sophisticated system call wrappers on x86 and s390. However, arm64, mips, powerpc, sparc and riscv still have the same bug. Change all of them over to use compat_sys_io_pgetevents_time64() like parisc already does. This was clearly the intention when the function was originally added, but it got hooked up incorrectly in the tables.

x86: Remove toolchain check for X32 ABI capability

2022-03-15T09:32:48+00:00

Commit 0bf6276392e9 ("x32: Warn and disable rather than error if binutils too old") added a small test in arch/x86/Makefile because binutils 2.22 or newer is needed to properly support elf32-x86-64. This check is no longer necessary, as the minimum supported version of binutils is 2.23, which is enforced at configuration time with scripts/min-tool-version.sh. Remove this check and replace all uses of CONFIG_X86_X32 with CONFIG_X86_X32_ABI, as two symbols are no longer necessary.

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.
