Resolve some shadow warnings produced in W=2 builds by changing the name
of some parameters and local variables. Change instances of "s64"
because that clashes with the well-known typedef. Also change a local
variable with the name "up" because that clashes with the name of of the
"up" function for semaphores. These are hazards so eliminate the
hazards by renaming them.Signed-off-by: Mark Rustad

This macro appears to have been introduced back in the 2.5 era for
semtimedop32 backward compatibility on ia32:https://lkml.org/lkml/2003/4/28/78
Nowadays, this syscall in compat just defaults back to the code found in
sem.c, so it is no longer used and can thus be removed:long compat_sys_semtimedop(int semid, struct sembuf __user *tsems,
unsigned nsops, const struct compat_timespec __user *timeout)
{
struct timespec __user *ts64;
if (compat_convert_timespec(&ts64, timeout))
return -EFAULT;
return sys_semtimedop(semid, tsems, nsops, ts64);
}Furthermore, there are no users in compat.c. After this change, kernel
builds just fine with both CONFIG_SYSVIPC_COMPAT and CONFIG_SYSVIPC.Signed-off-by: Davidlohr Bueso

"Despite the branch name this is really neither an x86 nor an

discussions that followed the x32 security hole a few months ago.This removes get/put_compat_timespec/val() and replaces them with
compat_get/put_timespec/val() which are savvy as to the current status
of COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME.It removes several unused and/or incorrect/misleading functions (like
compat_put_timeval_convert which doesn't in fact do any conversion)
and also replaces several open-coded implementations what is now
called compat_convert_timespec() with that function"* 'x86-x32-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:

Convert all compat system call functions where all parameter types
have a size of four or less than four bytes, or are pointer types

The implicit casts within COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE will perform proper

We have two APIs for compatiblity timespec/val, with confusingly
similar names. compat_(get|put)_time(val|spec) *do* handle the case
where COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME is set, whereas
(get|put)_compat_time(val|spec) do not. This is an accident waiting
to happen.Clean it up by favoring the full-service version; the limited version
is replaced with double-underscore versions static to kernel/compat.c.A common pattern is to convert a struct timespec to kernel format in
an allocation on the user stack. Unfortunately it is open-coded in
several places. Since this allocation isn't actually needed if
COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME is true (since user format == kernel format)
encapsulate that whole pattern into the function
compat_convert_timespec(). An equivalent function should be written
for struct timeval if it is needed in the future.Finally, get rid of compat_(get|put)_timeval_convert(): each was only
used once, and the latter was not even doing what the function said
(no conversion actually was being done.) Moving the conversion into
compat_sys_settimeofday() itself makes the code much more similar to
sys_settimeofday() itself.v3: Remove unused compat_convert_timeval().

The msgsnd and msgrcv system calls use size_t to represent the size of the
message being transferred. POSIX states that values of msgsz greater than
SSIZE_MAX cause the result to be implementation-defined. On Linux, this
equates to returning -EINVAL if (long) msgsz < 0.For compat tasks where !CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_OLD_COMPAT_IPC and compat_size_t
is smaller than size_t, negative size values passed from userspace will be
interpreted as positive values by do_msg{rcv,snd} and will fail to exit
early with -EINVAL.This patch changes the compat prototypes for msg{rcv,snd} so that the
message size is represented as a compat_ssize_t, which we cast to the
native ssize_t type for the core IPC code.Cc: Arnd Bergmann

Commit 48b25c43e6ee ("ipc: provide generic compat versions of IPC
syscalls") added a new ARCH_WANT_OLD_COMPAT_IPC config option for
architectures to select if their compat target requires the old IPC
syscall interface.For architectures (such as AArch64) that do not require the internal
calling conventions provided by this option, but have a compat target
where the C library passes the IPC_64 flag explicitly,
compat_ipc_parse_version no longer strips out the flag before calling
the native system call implementation, resulting in unknown SHM/IPC
commands and -EINVAL being returned to userspace.This patch separates the selection of the internal calling conventions
for the IPC syscalls from the version parsing, allowing architectures to
select __ARCH_WANT_COMPAT_IPC_PARSE_VERSION if they want to use version
parsing whilst retaining the newer syscall calling conventions.Acked-by: Chris Metcalf

If the SHMLBA definition for a native task differs from the definition for
a compat task, the do_shmat() function would need to handle both.This patch introduces COMPAT_SHMLBA, which is used by the compat shmat
syscall when calling the ipc code and allows architectures such as AArch64
(where the native SHMLBA is 64k but the compat (AArch32) definition is
16k) to provide the correct semantics for compat IPC system calls.Cc: David S. Miller

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 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.Reviewed-by: Arnd Bergmann

…it slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

Currently we allocate 64k space on the user stack and use it the msgbuf for
sys_{msgrcv,msgsnd} for compat and the results are later copied in user [
by copy_in_user]. This patch introduces helper routines for
sys_{msgrcv,msgsnd} as below:do_msgsnd() : Accepts the mtype and user space ptr to the buffer along with
the msqid and msgflg.do_msgrcv() : Accepts a kernel space ptr to mtype and a userspace ptr to
the buffer. The mtype has to be copied back the user space msgbuf by the
caller.These changes avoid the need to allocate the msgsize on the userspace (
thus removing the size limt ) and the overhead of an extra copy_in_user().Signed-off-by: Suzuki K P

When I first wrote the compat layer patches, I was somewhat cavalier about
the definition of compat_uid_t and compat_gid_t (or maybe I just
misunderstood :-)). This patch makes the compat types much more consistent
with the types we are being compatible with and hopefully will fix a few
bugs along the way.compat type type in compat arch
__compat_[ug]id_t __kernel_[ug]id_t
__compat_[ug]id32_t __kernel_[ug]id32_t
compat_[ug]id_t [ug]id_tThe difference is that compat_uid_t is always 32 bits (for the archs we
care about) but __compat_uid_t may be 16 bits on some.Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.Let it rip!
