    aio: fix the compat vectored operations · 9d85cba7
    Jeff Moyer 提交于
    The aio compat code was not converting the struct iovecs from 32bit to
    64bit pointers, causing either EINVAL to be returned from io_getevents, or
    EFAULT as the result of the I/O.  This patch passes a compat flag to
    io_submit to signal that pointer conversion is necessary for a given iocb
    array.
    
    A variant of this was tested by Michael Tokarev.  I have also updated the
    libaio test harness to exercise this code path with good success.
    Further, I grabbed a copy of ltp and ran the
    testcases/kernel/syscall/readv and writev tests there (compiled with -m32
    on my 64bit system).  All seems happy, but extra eyes on this would be
    welcome.
