[-0029] System call wrapper special cases · 6673e0c3

Heiko Carstens authored Jan 14, 2009

System calls with an unsigned long long argument can't be converted with
the standard wrappers since that would include a cast to long, which in
turn means that we would lose the upper 32 bit on 32 bit architectures.
Also semctl can't use the standard wrapper since it has a 'union'
parameter.

So we handle them as special case and add some extra wrappers instead.

[-0029] System call wrapper infrastructure · 1a94bc34

Heiko Carstens authored Jan 14, 2009

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

By selecting HAVE_SYSCALL_WRAPPERS architectures can activate
system call wrappers in order to sign extend system call arguments.

All architectures where the ABI defines that the caller of a function
has to perform sign extension probably need this.

Not a single architecture has wired up sys_pselect7 plus it is the

rename it to do_pselect which will do the work for sys_pselect6.

IA64, ALPHA, SUPERH (32bit) and SPARC (32bit) have own implemantations
with the same name. Just rename them.
For sys_pipe2 there is no architecture specific implementation.

[-0029] Convert all system calls to return a long · 2ed7c03e

Heiko Carstens authored Jan 14, 2009

Convert all system calls to return a long. This should be a NOP since all
converted types should have the same size anyway.
With the exception of sys_exit_group which returned void. But that doesn't
matter since the system call doesn't return.

Fix timeouts in sys_pselect7 · 62568510

Bernd Schmidt authored Jan 13, 2009

Since we (Analog Devices) updated our Blackfin kernel to 2.6.28, we've
seen occasional 5-second hangs from telnet.  telnetd calls select with a
NULL timeout, but with the new kernel, the system call occasionally
returns 0, which causes telnet to call sleep (5).  This did not happen
with earlier kernels.

The code in sys_pselect7 looks a bit strange, in particular the variable
"to" is initialized to NULL, then changed if a non-null timeout was
passed in, but not used further.  It needs to be passed to
core_sys_select instead of &end_time.

This bug was introduced by 8ff3e8e8
("select: switch select() and poll() over to hrtimers").
