include/linux/compat.h: remove unneeded declaration from COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx()

2021-05-07T02:24:12+00:00

compat_sys##name is declared twice, just one line below. With this removal SYSCALL_DEFINEx() (defined in ) and COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() look symmetrical.

signal, perf: Fix siginfo_t by avoiding u64 on 32-bit architectures

2021-04-23T07:03:16+00:00

The alignment of a structure is that of its largest member. On architectures like 32-bit Arm (but not e.g. 32-bit x86) 64-bit integers will require 64-bit alignment and not its natural word size. This means that there is no portable way to add 64-bit integers to siginfo_t on 32-bit architectures without breaking the ABI, because siginfo_t does not yet (and therefore likely never will) contain 64-bit fields on 32-bit architectures. Adding a 64-bit integer could change the alignment of the union after the 3 initial int si_signo, si_errno, si_code, thus introducing 4 bytes of padding shifting the entire union, which would break the ABI. One alternative would be to use the __packed attribute, however, it is non-standard C. Given siginfo_t has definitions outside the Linux kernel in various standard libraries that can be compiled with any number of different compilers (not just those we rely on), using non-standard attributes on siginfo_t should be avoided to ensure portability. In the case of the si_perf field, word size is sufficient since there is no exact requirement on size, given the data it contains is user-defined via perf_event_attr::sig_data. On 32-bit architectures, any excess bits of perf_event_attr::sig_data will therefore be truncated when copying into si_perf. Since si_perf is intended to disambiguate events (e.g. encoding relevant information if there are more events of the same type), 32 bits should provide enough entropy to do so on 32-bit architectures. For 64-bit architectures, no change is intended.

signal: Introduce TRAP_PERF si_code and si_perf to siginfo

2021-04-16T14:32:41+00:00

Introduces the TRAP_PERF si_code, and associated siginfo_t field si_perf. These will be used by the perf event subsystem to send signals (if requested) to the task where an event occurred.

signal: Add unsafe_get_compat_sigset()

2021-04-03T10:22:18+00:00

In the same way as commit 14026b94ccfe ("signal: Add unsafe_put_compat_sigset()"), this time add unsafe_get_compat_sigset() macro which is the 'unsafe' version of get_compat_sigset() For the bigendian, use unsafe_get_user() directly to avoid intermediate copy through the stack. For the littleendian, use a straight unsafe_copy_from_user(). This commit adds the generic fallback for unsafe_copy_from_user(). Architectures wanting to use unsafe_get_compat_sigset() have to make sure they have their own unsafe_copy_from_user().

Pull compat mount cleanups from Al Viro: "The last remnants of mount(2) compat buried by Christoph. Buried into NFS, that is. Generally I'm less enthusiastic about "let's use in_compat_syscall() deep in call chain" kind of approach than Christoph seems to be, but in this case it's warranted - that had been an NFS-specific wart, hopefully not to be repeated in any other filesystems (read: any new filesystem introducing non-text mount options will get NAKed even if it doesn't mess the layout up). IOW, not worth trying to grow an infrastructure that would avoid that use of in_compat_syscall()..." * 'compat.mount' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: fs: remove compat_sys_mount fs,nfs: lift compat nfs4 mount data handling into the nfs code nfs: simplify nfs4_parse_monolithic
