2011-07-01compat_ioctl: fix warning caused by qemuJohannes Stezenbach1-0/+5
On Linux x86_64 host with 32bit userspace, running qemu or even just "qemu-img create -f qcow2 some.img 1G" causes a kernel warning: ioctl32(qemu-img:5296): Unknown cmd fd(3) cmd(00005326){t:'S';sz:0} arg(7fffffff) on some.img ioctl32(qemu-img:5296): Unknown cmd fd(3) cmd(801c0204){t:02;sz:28} arg(fff77350) on some.img ioctl 00005326 is CDROM_DRIVE_STATUS, ioctl 801c0204 is FDGETPRM. The warning appears because the Linux compat-ioctl handler for these ioctls only applies to block devices, while qemu also uses the ioctls on plain files.

2010-10-19fix rawctl compat ioctls breakage on amd64 and itanicAl Viro1-70/+0
RAW_SETBIND and RAW_GETBIND 32bit versions are fscked in interesting ways. 1) fs/compat_ioctl.c has COMPATIBLE_IOCTL(RAW_SETBIND) followed by HANDLE_IOCTL(RAW_SETBIND, raw_ioctl). The latter is ignored. 2) on amd64 (and itanic) the damn thing is broken - we have int + u64 + u64 and layouts on i386 and amd64 are _not_ the same. raw_ioctl() would work there, but it's never called due to (1). As it is, i386 /sbin/raw definitely doesn't work on amd64 boxen. 3) switching to raw_ioctl() as is would *not* work on e.g. sparc64 and ppc64, which would be rather sad, seeing that normal userland there is 32bit. The thing is, slapping __packed on the struct in question does not DTRT - it eliminates *all* padding. The real solution is to use compat_u64. 4) of course, all that stuff has no business being outside of raw.c in the first place - there should be ->compat_ioctl() for /dev/rawctl instead of messing with compat_ioctl.c.

2010-08-10tty: Add EXTPROC support for LINEMODEhyc@symas.com1-0/+1
This patch is against the 2.6.34 source. Paraphrased from the 1989 BSD patch by David Borman @ cray.com: These are the changes needed for the kernel to support LINEMODE in the server. There is a new bit in the termios local flag word, EXTPROC. When this bit is set, several aspects of the terminal driver are disabled. Input line editing, character echo, and mapping of signals are all disabled. This allows the telnetd to turn off these functions when in linemode, but still keep track of what state the user wants the terminal to be in. New ioctl: TIOCSIG Generate a signal to processes in the current process group of the pty. There is a new mode for packet driver, the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit. When packet mode is turned on in the pty, and the EXTPROC bit is set, then whenever the state of the pty is changed, the next read on the master side of the pty will have the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit set. This allows the process on the server side of the pty to know when the state of the terminal has changed; it can then issue the appropriate ioctl to retrieve the new state. Since the original BSD patches accompanied the source code for telnet I've left that reference here, but obviously the feature is useful for any remote terminal protocol, including ssh. The corresponding feature has existed in the BSD tty driver since 1989.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo1-1/+1
implicit 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 allmodconfig 8. 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.

2009-12-10compat_ioctl: simplify lookup tableArnd Bergmann1-46/+44
The compat_ioctl table now only contains entries for COMPATIBLE_IOCTL, so we only need to know if a number is listed in it or now. As an optimization, we hash the table entries with a reversible transformation to get a more uniform distribution over it, sort the table at startup and then guess the position in the table when an ioctl number gets called to do a linear search from there. With the current set of ioctl numbers and the chosen transformation function, we need an average of four steps to find if a number is in the set, all of the accesses within one or two cache lines. This at least as good as the previous hash table approach but saves 8.5 kb of kernel memory. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

2009-12-10compat_ioctl: Remove BKLArnd Bergmann1-2/+0
We have always called ioctl conversion handlers under the big kernel lock, although that is generally not necessary. In particular it is not needed for conversion of data structures and for calling sys_ioctl or do_vfs_ioctl, which will get the BKL again if needed. Handlers doing more than those two have been moved out, so we can kill off the BKL from compat_sys_ioctl. This may significantly improve latencies with 32 bit applications, and it avoids a common scenario where a thread acquires the BKL twice.

2009-11-12fs: add missing compat_ptr handling for FS_IOC_RESVSP ioctlHeiko Carstens1-2/+2
For FS_IOC_RESVSP and FS_IOC_RESVSP64 compat_sys_ioctl() uses its arg argument as a pointer to userspace. However it is missing a a call to compat_ptr() which will do a proper pointer conversion. This was introduced with 3e63cbb1 "fs: Add new pre-allocation ioctls to vfs for compatibility with legacy xfs ioctls".

2009-11-06compat: move sockios handling to net/socket.cArnd Bergmann1-722/+0
This removes the original socket compat_ioctl code from fs/compat_ioctl.c and converts the code from the copy in net/socket.c into a single function. We add a few cycles of runtime to compat_sock_ioctl() with the long switch() statement, but gain some cycles in return by simplifying the call chain to get there. Due to better inlining, save 1.5kb of object size in the process, and enable further savings: before: text data bss dec hex filename 13540 18008 2080 33628 835c obj/fs/compat_ioctl.o 14565 636 40 15241 3b89 obj/net/socket.o after: text data bss dec hex filename 8916 15176 2080 26172 663c obj/fs/compat_ioctl.o 20725 636 40 21401 5399 obj/net/socket.o Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-11-06appletalk: handle SIOCATALKDIFADDR compat ioctlArnd Bergmann1-1/+0
We must not have a compat ioctl handler for SIOCATALKDIFADDR in common code, because the same number is used in other protocols with different data structures. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-11-06net, compat_ioctl: handle socket ioctl abuses in tty driversArnd Bergmann1-2/+0
Slip and a few other drivers use the same ioctl numbers on tty devices that are normally meant for sockets. This causes problems with our compat_ioctl handling that tries to convert the data structures in a different format. Fortunately, these five drivers all use 32 bit compatible data structures in the ioctl numbers, so we can just add a trivial compat_ioctl conversion function to each of them. SIOCSIFENCAP and SIOCGIFENCAP do not need to live in fs/compat_ioctl.c after this any more, and they are not used on any sockets. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-11-06net/tun: handle compat_ioctl directlyArnd Bergmann1-20/+0
The tun driver is the only code in the kernel that operates on a character device with struct ifreq. Change the driver to handle the conversion itself so we can contain the remaining ifreq handling in the socket layer. This also fixes a bug in the handling of invalid ioctl numbers on an unbound tun device. The driver treats this as a TUNSETIFF in native mode, but there is no way for the generic compat_ioctl() function to emulate this behaviour. Possibly the driver was only doing this accidentally anyway, but if any code relies on this misfeature, it now also works in compat mode.

2009-08-07compat_ioctl: hook up compat handler for FIEMAP ioctlEric Sandeen1-0/+1
The FIEMAP_IOC_FIEMAP mapping ioctl was missing a 32-bit compat handler, which means that 32-bit suerspace on 64-bit kernels cannot use this ioctl command. The structure is nicely aligned, padded, and sized, so it is just this simple. Tested w/ 32-bit ioctl tester (from Josef) on a 64-bit kernel on ext4.

2009-06-24fs: Add new pre-allocation ioctls to vfs for compatibility with legacy xfs ↵Ankit Jain1-0/+48
ioctls This patch adds ioctls to vfs for compatibility with legacy XFS pre-allocation ioctls (XFS_IOC_*RESVP*). The implementation effectively invokes sys_fallocate for the new ioctls. Also handles the compat_ioctl case. Note: These legacy ioctls are also implemented by OCFS2.
