From 942fa985e9f161ac018ce2230d3e6f7668cca6ac Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yury Norov Date: Wed, 16 May 2018 11:18:49 +0300 Subject: 32-bit userspace ABI: introduce ARCH_32BIT_OFF_T config option All new 32-bit architectures should have 64-bit userspace off_t type, but existing architectures has 32-bit ones. To enforce the rule, new config option is added to arch/Kconfig that defaults ARCH_32BIT_OFF_T to be disabled for new 32-bit architectures. All existing 32-bit architectures enable it explicitly. New option affects force_o_largefile() behaviour. Namely, if userspace off_t is 64-bits long, we have no reason to reject user to open big files. Note that even if architectures has only 64-bit off_t in the kernel (arc, c6x, h8300, hexagon, nios2, openrisc, and unicore32), a libc may use 32-bit off_t, and therefore want to limit the file size to 4GB unless specified differently in the open flags.
