[ARM] 5456/1: add sys_preadv and sys_pwritev

2009-04-20T13:01:39Z

Kernel 2.6.30-rc1 added sys_preadv and sys_pwritev to most archs but not ARM, resulting in :1421:2: warning: #warning syscall preadv not implemented :1425:2: warning: #warning syscall pwritev not implemented This patch adds sys_preadv and sys_pwritev to ARM. These syscalls simply take five long-sized parameters, so they should have no calling-convention/ABI issues in the kernel. Tested on armv5tel eabi using a preadv/pwritev test program posted on linuxppc-dev earlier this month. It would be nice to get this into the kernel before 2.6.30 final, so that glibc's kernel version feature test for these syscalls doesn't have to special-case ARM.

[ARM] 4878/1: Add oabi shim for fstatat64

2008-03-28T15:00:46Z

Ccoreutils and other have started using fstatat64. Thus, we need a shim for it if we want to support modern oldabi userlands (such as Debian/arm/lenny) with EABI kernels. See http://bugs.debian.org/462677 Acked-by: Nicolas Pitre Signed-off-by: Riku Voipio Signed-off-by: Russell King

timerfd: new timerfd API

2008-02-05T17:44:07Z

This is the new timerfd API as it is implemented by the following patch: int timerfd_create(int clockid, int flags); int timerfd_settime(int ufd, int flags, const struct itimerspec *utmr, struct itimerspec *otmr); int timerfd_gettime(int ufd, struct itimerspec *otmr); The timerfd_create() API creates an un-programmed timerfd fd. The "clockid" parameter can be either CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_REALTIME. The timerfd_settime() API give new settings by the timerfd fd, by optionally retrieving the previous expiration time (in case the "otmr" parameter is not NULL). The time value specified in "utmr" is absolute, if the TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME bit is set in the "flags" parameter. Otherwise it's a relative time. The timerfd_gettime() API returns the next expiration time of the timer, or {0, 0} if the timerfd has not been set yet. Like the previous timerfd API implementation, read(2) and poll(2) are supported (with the same interface). Here's a simple test program I used to exercise the new timerfd APIs: http://www.xmailserver.org/timerfd-test2.c [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style cleanups] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix ia64 build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix m68k build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix mips build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix alpha, arm, blackfin, cris, m68k, s390, sparc and sparc64 builds] [heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com: fix s390] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix powerpc build] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix sparc64 more] Signed-off-by: Davide Libenzi Cc: Michael Kerrisk Cc: Thomas Gleixner Cc: Davide Libenzi Cc: Michael Kerrisk Cc: Martin Schwidefsky Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Cc: Michael Kerrisk Cc: Davide Libenzi Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

Introduce fixed sys_sync_file_range2() syscall, implement on PowerPC and ARM

2007-06-28T18:38:30Z

Not all the world is an i386. Many architectures need 64-bit arguments to be aligned in suitable pairs of registers, and the original sys_sync_file_range(int, loff_t, loff_t, int) was therefore wasting an argument register for padding after the first integer. Since we don't normally have more than 6 arguments for system calls, that left no room for the final argument on some architectures. Fix this by introducing sys_sync_file_range2(int, int, loff_t, loff_t) which all fits nicely. In fact, ARM already had that, but called it sys_arm_sync_file_range. Move it to fs/sync.c and rename it, then implement the needed compatibility routine. And stop the missing syscall check from bitching about the absence of sys_sync_file_range() if we've implemented sys_sync_file_range2() instead. Tested on PPC32 and with 32-bit and 64-bit userspace on PPC64.
