      [PATCH v3] ipc: provide generic compat versions of IPC syscalls · 48b25c43
      由 Chris Metcalf 提交于 
      When using the "compat" APIs, architectures will generally want to
be able to make direct syscalls to msgsnd(), shmctl(), etc., and
in the kernel we would want them to be handled directly by
compat_sys_xxx() functions, as is true for other compat syscalls.

However, for historical reasons, several of the existing compat IPC
syscalls do not do this.  semctl() expects a pointer to the fourth
argument, instead of the fourth argument itself.  msgsnd(), msgrcv()
and shmat() expect arguments in different order.

This change adds an ARCH_WANT_OLD_COMPAT_IPC config option that can be
set to preserve this behavior for ports that use it (x86, sparc, powerpc,
s390, and mips).  No actual semantics are changed for those architectures,
and there is only a minimal amount of code refactoring in ipc/compat.c.

Newer architectures like tile (and perhaps future architectures such
as arm64 and unicore64) should not select this option, and thus can
avoid having any IPC-specific code at all in their architecture-specific
compat layer.  In the same vein, if this option is not selected, IPC_64
mode is assumed, since that's what the <asm-generic> headers expect.

The workaround code in "tile" for msgsnd() and msgrcv() is removed
with this change; it also fixes the bug that shmat() and semctl() were
not being properly handled.

      x86: Derandom delay_tsc for 64 bit · a7f4255f
      由 Thomas Gleixner 提交于 
      Commit f0fbf0ab ("x86: integrate delay functions") converted
delay_tsc() into a random delay generator for 64 bit.  The reason is
that it merged the mostly identical versions of delay_32.c and
delay_64.c.  Though the subtle difference of the result was:

 static void delay_tsc(unsigned long loops)
 {
-	unsigned bclock, now;
+	unsigned long bclock, now;

Now the function uses rdtscl() which returns the lower 32bit of the
TSC. On 32bit that's not problematic as unsigned long is 32bit. On 64
bit this fails when the lower 32bit are close to wrap around when
bclock is read, because the following check

       if ((now - bclock) >= loops)
       	  	break;

evaluated to true on 64bit for e.g. bclock = 0xffffffff and now = 0
because the unsigned long (now - bclock) of these values results in
0xffffffff00000001 which is definitely larger than the loops
value. That explains Tvortkos observation:

"Because I am seeing udelay(500) (_occasionally_) being short, and
 that by delaying for some duration between 0us (yep) and 491us."

Make those variables explicitely u32 again, so this works for both 32
and 64 bit.

      C6X: fix KSTK_EIP and KSTK_ESP macros · 4cd7c0a0
      由 Mark Salter 提交于 
      There was a latent typo in the C6X KSTK_EIP and KSTK_ESP macros which
caused a problem with a new patch which used them. The broken definitions
were of the form:

  #define KSTK_FOO(tsk) (task_pt_regs(task)->foo)

Note the use of task vs tsk. This actually worked before because the
only place in the kernel which used these macros passed in a local
pointer named task.
