2014-10-08add new syscall numbers for seccomp, getrandom, memfd_createSzabolcs Nagy-0/+6
these syscalls are new in linux v3.17 and present on all supported archs except sh. seccomp was added in commit 48dc92b9fc3926844257316e75ba11eb5c742b2c it has operation, flags and pointer arguments (if flags==0 then it is the same as prctl(PR_SET_SECCOMP,...)), the uapi header for flag definitions is linux/seccomp.h getrandom was added in commit c6e9d6f38894798696f23c8084ca7edbf16ee895 it provides an entropy source when open("/dev/urandom",..) would fail, the uapi header for flags is linux/random.h memfd_create was added in commit 9183df25fe7b194563db3fec6dc3202a5855839c it allows anon mmap to have an fd, that can be shared, sealed and needs no mount point, the uapi header for flags is linux/memfd.h
2014-07-20add syscall numbers for the new renameat2 syscallSzabolcs Nagy-0/+2
it's like rename but with flags eg. to allow atomic exchange of two files, introduced in linux 3.15 commit 520c8b16505236fc82daa352e6c5e73cd9870cff
2014-05-30add sched_{get,set}attr syscall numbers and SCHED_DEADLINE macroSzabolcs Nagy-0/+4
linux 3.14 introduced sched_getattr and sched_setattr syscalls in commit d50dde5a10f305253cbc3855307f608f8a3c5f73 and the related SCHED_DEADLINE scheduling policy in commit aab03e05e8f7e26f51dee792beddcb5cca9215a5 but struct sched_attr "extended scheduling parameters data structure" is not yet exported to userspace (necessary for using the syscalls) so related uapi definitions are not added yet.
2013-09-26add missing i386 syscall numbersRich Felker-0/+10
somehow the range 335-339 was missed when updating the file.

2012-09-08syscall organization overhaulRich Felker-286/+0
now public syscall.h only exposes __NR_* and SYS_* constants and the variadic syscall function. no macros or inline functions, no __syscall_ret or other internal details, no 16-/32-bit legacy syscall renaming, etc. this logic has all been moved to src/internal/syscall.h with the arch-specific parts in arch/$(ARCH)/syscall_arch.h, and the amount of arch-specific stuff has been reduced to a minimum. changes still need to be reviewed/double-checked. minimal testing on i386 and mips has already been performed.

2012-09-02avoid "inline" in public headers for strict c89 compatibilityRich Felker-14/+14
while musl itself requires a c99 compiler, some applications insist on being compiled with c89 compilers, and use of "inline" in the headers was breaking them. much of this had been avoided already by just skipping the inline keyword in pre-c99 compilers or modes, but this new unified solution is cleaner and may/should result in better code generation in the default gcc configuration.

yet another gratuitous mips incompatibility...

2012-04-04work around nasty gcc bug in the i386 syscall asmRich Felker-4/+4
when the "r" (register) constraint is used to let gcc choose a register, gcc will sometimes assign the same register that was used for one of the other fixed-register operands, if it knows the values are the same. one common case is multiple zero arguments to a syscall. this horribly breaks the intended usage, which is swapping the GOT pointer from ebx into the temp register and back to perform the syscall. presumably there is a way to fix this with advanced usage of register constaints on the inline asm, but having bad memories about hellish compatibility issues with different gcc versions, for the time being i'm just going to hard-code specific registers to be used. this may hurt the compiler's ability to optimize, but it will fix serious miscompilation issues. so far the only function i know what compiled incorrectly is getrlimit.c, and naturally the bug only applies to shared (PIC) builds, but it may be more extensive and may have gone undetected..
2012-01-20add prlimit syscall wrapperRich Felker-0/+2
2011-09-21update syscalls with off_t arguments to handle argument alignment, if neededRich Felker-1/+2
the arm syscall abi requires 64-bit arguments to be aligned on an even register boundary. these new macros facilitate meeting the abi requirement without imposing significant ugliness on the code.

2011-04-17overhaul pthread cancellationRich Felker-1/+3
this patch improves the correctness, simplicity, and size of cancellation-related code. modulo any small errors, it should now be completely conformant, safe, and resource-leak free. the notion of entering and exiting cancellation-point context has been completely eliminated and replaced with alternative syscall assembly code for cancellable syscalls. the assembly is responsible for setting up execution context information (stack pointer and address of the syscall instruction) which the cancellation signal handler can use to determine whether the interrupted code was in a cancellable state. these changes eliminate race conditions in the previous generation of cancellation handling code (whereby a cancellation request received just prior to the syscall would not be processed, leaving the syscall to block, potentially indefinitely), and remedy an issue where non-cancellable syscalls made from signal handlers became cancellable if the signal handler interrupted a cancellation point. x86_64 asm is untested and may need a second try to get it right.
2011-03-28fix bug from syscall overhaul: extra __syscall_ret call for 0-arg syscallsRich Felker-1/+1
this mainly just caused bloat, but could corrupt errno if a 0-arg syscall ever failed.
2011-03-19honor namespace for i386 syscall.h, even though it's not a standard headerRich Felker-50/+50
2011-03-19syscall overhaul part two - unify public and internal syscall interfaceRich Felker-0/+131
with this patch, the syscallN() functions are no longer needed; a variadic syscall() macro allows syscalls with anywhere from 0 to 6 arguments to be made with a single macro name. also, manually casting each non-integer argument with (long) is no longer necessary; the casts are hidden in the macros. some source files which depended on being able to define the old macro SYSCALL_RETURNS_ERRNO have been modified to directly use __syscall() instead of syscall(). references to SYSCALL_SIGSET_SIZE and SYSCALL_LL have also been changed. x86_64 has not been tested, and may need a follow-up commit to fix any minor bugs/oversights.
2011-03-19overhaul syscall interfaceRich Felker-0/+810
this commit shuffles around the location of syscall definitions so that we can make a syscall() library function with both SYS_* and __NR_* style syscall names available to user applications, provides the syscall() library function, and optimizes the code that performs the actual inline syscalls in the library itself. previously on i386 when built as PIC (shared library), syscalls were incurring bus lock (lock prefix) overhead at entry and exit, due to the way the ebx register was being loaded (xchg instruction with a memory operand). now the xchg takes place between two registers. further cleanup to arch/$(ARCH)/syscall.h is planned.
