perf tools: Update powerpc's syscall.tbl copy from the kernel sources

2020-12-24T12:24:20+00:00

This silences the following tools/perf/ build warning: Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/perf/arch/powerpc/entry/syscalls/syscall.tbl' differs from latest version at 'arch/powerpc/kernel/syscalls/syscall.tbl' Just make them same: cp arch/powerpc/kernel/syscalls/syscall.tbl tools/perf/arch/powerpc/entry/syscalls/syscall.tbl Signed-off-by: Tiezhu Yang Reviewed-by: Naveen N.

perf powerpc: Move syscall.tbl check to check-headers.sh

2020-12-24T12:24:20+00:00

It is better to check syscall.tbl for powerpc in check-headers.sh, it is similar with commit c9b51a017065 ("perf tools: Move syscall_64.tbl check into check-headers.sh").

2020-10-12T23:44:57+00:00

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

all arch: remove system call sys_sysctl

2020-08-15T02:56:56+00:00

Since commit 61a47c1ad3a4dc ("sysctl: Remove the sysctl system call"), sys_sysctl is actually unavailable: any input can only return an error. We have been warning about people using the sysctl system call for years and believe there are no more users. Even if there are users of this interface if they have not complained or fixed their code by now they probably are not going to, so there is no point in warning them any longer. So completely remove sys_sysctl on all architectures.
