* compat: generic compat_sys_sched_rr_get_interval() implementationCatalin Marinas2012-12-171-15/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This function is used by sparc, powerpc tile and arm64 for compat support. The patch adds a generic implementation with a wrapper for PowerPC to do the u32->int sign extension. The reason for a single patch covering powerpc, tile, sparc and arm64 is to keep it bisectable, otherwise kernel building may fail with mismatched function declarations.

* arm64: Use generic sys_execve() implementationCatalin Marinas2012-10-171-18/+0
| | | | | | | | This patch converts the arm64 port to use the generic sys_execve() implementation removing the arm64-specific (compat_)sys_execve_wrapper() functions. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

* | vfs: define struct filename and have getname() return itJeff Layton2012-10-121-3/+3
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to the string. For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled, we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not need to recopy it from userspace. This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it. Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes convenient. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
* arm64: Use the generic compat_sys_sendfile() implementationCatalin Marinas2012-10-081-20/+0
| | | | | | | | The generic implementation of compat_sys_sendfile() has been introduced by commit 8f9c0119. This patch removes the arm64 implementation in favour of the generic one. Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
* arm64: 32-bit (compat) applications supportWill Deacon2012-09-171-0/+164
This patch adds support for 32-bit applications. The vectors page is a binary blob mapped into the application user space at 0xffff0000 (the AArch64 toolchain does not support compilation of AArch32 code). Full compatibility with ARMv7 user space is supported. The use of deprecated ARMv7 functionality (SWP, CP15 barriers) has been disabled by default on AArch64 kernels and unaligned LDM/STM is not supported. Please note that only the ARM 32-bit EABI is supported, so no OABI compatibility.
