    compat_ioctl: reimplement SG_IO handling · 98aaaec4
    Arnd Bergmann 提交于
    There are two code locations that implement the SG_IO ioctl: the old
    sg.c driver, and the generic scsi_ioctl helper that is in turn used by
    multiple drivers.
    
    To eradicate the old compat_ioctl conversion handler for the SG_IO
    command, I implement a readable pair of put_sg_io_hdr() /get_sg_io_hdr()
    helper functions that can be used for both compat and native mode,
    and then I call this from both drivers.
    
    For the iovec handling, there is already a compat_import_iovec() function
    that can simply be called in place of import_iovec().
    
    To avoid having to pass the compat/native state through multiple
    indirections, I mark the SG_IO command itself as compatible in
    fs/compat_ioctl.c and use in_compat_syscall() to figure out where
    we are called from.
    
    As a side-effect of this, the sg.c driver now also accepts the 32-bit
    sg_io_hdr format in compat mode using the read/write interface, not
    just ioctl. This should improve compatiblity with old 32-bit binaries,
    but it would break if any application intentionally passes the 64-bit
    data structure in compat mode here.
