2017-09-06make syscall.h consistent with linuxSzabolcs Nagy-3/+3
most of the found naming differences don't matter to musl, because internally it unifies the syscall names that vary across targets, but for external code the names should match the kernel uapi. aarch64: __NR_fstatat is called __NR_newfstatat in linux. __NR_or1k_atomic got mistakenly copied from or1k. arm: __NR_arm_sync_file_range is an alias for __NR_sync_file_range2 __NR_fadvise64_64 is called __NR_arm_fadvise64_64 in linux, the old non-arm name is kept too, it should not cause issues. (powerpc has similar nonstandard fadvise and it uses the normal name.) i386: __NR_madvise1 was removed from linux in commit 303395ac3bf3e2cb488435537d416bc840438fcb 2011-11-11 microblaze: __NR_fadvise, __NR_fstatat, __NR_pread, __NR_pwrite had different name in linux. mips: __NR_fadvise, __NR_fstatat, __NR_pread, __NR_pwrite, __NR_select had different name in linux. mipsn32: __NR_fstatat is called __NR_newfstatat in linux. or1k: __NR__llseek is called __NR_llseek in linux. the old name is kept too because that's the name musl uses internally. powerpc: __NR_{get,set}res{gid,uid}32 was never present in powerpc linux. __NR_timerfd was briefly defined in linux but then got renamed.
2017-05-31remove long-obsolete clang workarounds from mips* syscall_arch.h filesRich Felker-41/+0
at one point, clang reportedly failed to support the asm register constraints needed for inline syscalls. versions of clang that old have much bigger problems that preclude using them to compile musl libc.
2016-01-27mips: add vdso supportHauke Mehrtens-0/+4
vdso support is available on mips starting with kernel 4.4, see kernel commit a7f4df4e21 "MIPS: VDSO: Add implementations of gettimeofday() and clock_gettime()" for details. In Linux kernel 4.4.0 the mips code returns -ENOSYS in case it can not handle the vdso call and assumes the libc will call the original syscall in this case. Handle this case in musl. Currently Linux kernel 4.4.0 handles the following types: CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE, CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE, CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC.
2015-12-15remove visibility suppression by SHARED macro in mips and x32 arch filesRich Felker-2/+0
commit 8a8fdf6398b85c99dffb237e47fa577e2ddc9e77 was intended to remove all such usage, but these arch-specific files were overlooked, leading to inconsistent declarations and definitions.
2015-04-30fix __syscall declaration with wrong visibility in syscall_arch.hSzabolcs Nagy-0/+3
remove __syscall declaration where it is not needed (aarch64, arm, microblaze, or1k) and add the hidden attribute where it is (mips).
2015-04-07fix possible clobbering of syscall return values on mipsRich Felker-3/+6
depending on the compiler's interpretation of __asm__ register names for register class objects, it may be possible for the return value in r2 to be clobbered by the function call to __stat_fix. I have not observed any such breakage in normal builds and suspect it only happens with -O0 or other unusual build options, but since there's an ambiguity as to the semantics of this feature, it's best to use an explicit temporary to avoid the issue. based on reporting and patch by Eugene.
2014-07-20fix regression that negated some mips syscall error returnsRich Felker-5/+5
due to what was essentially a copy and paste error, the changes made in commit f61be1f875a2758509d6e9e2cf6f1d9603b28b65 caused syscalls with 5 or 6 arguments (and syscalls with 2, 3, or 4 arguments when compiled with clang compatibility) to negate the returned error code a second time, breaking errno reporting.
2014-07-19fix mips struct stat dev_t members for big endianRich Felker-20/+81
the mips version of this structure on the kernel side wrongly has 32-bit type rather than 64-bit type. fortunately there is adjacent padding to bring it up to 64 bits, and on little-endian, this allows us to treat the adjacent kernel st_dev and st_pad0[0] as as single 64-bit dev_t. however, on big endian, such treatment results in the upper and lower 32-bit parts of the dev_t value being swapped. for the purpose of just comparing st_dev values this did not break anything, but it precluded actually processing the device numbers as major/minor values. since the broken kernel behavior that needs to be worked around is isolated to one arch, I put the workarounds in syscall_arch.h rather than adding a stat fixup path in the common code. on little endian mips, the added code optimizes out completely. the changes necessary were incompatible with the way the __asm_syscall macro was factored so I just removed it and flattened the individual __syscallN functions. this arguably makes the code easier to read and understand, anyway.
2014-05-30fix for broken kernel side RLIM_INFINITY on mipsSzabolcs Nagy-0/+2
On 32 bit mips the kernel uses -1UL/2 to mark RLIM_INFINITY (and this is the definition in the userspace api), but since it is in the middle of the valid range of limits and limits are often compared with relational operators, various kernel side logic is broken if larger than -1UL/2 limits are used. So we truncate the limits to -1UL/2 in get/setrlimit and prlimit. Even if the kernel side logic consistently treated -1UL/2 as greater than any other limit value, there wouldn't be any clean workaround that allowed using large limits: * using -1UL/2 as RLIM_INFINITY in userspace would mean different infinity value for get/setrlimt and prlimit (where infinity is always -1ULL) and userspace logic could break easily (just like the kernel is broken now) and more special case code would be needed for mips. * translating -1UL/2 kernel side value to -1ULL in userspace would mean that -1UL/2 limit cannot be set (eg. -1UL/2+1 had to be passed to the kernel instead).
2014-02-24fixup general __syscall breakage introduced in x32 portrofl0r-0/+2
the reordering of headers caused some risc archs to not see the __syscall declaration anymore. this caused build errors on mips with any compiler, and on arm and microblaze with clang. we now declare it locally just like the powerpc port does.
2013-03-26remove __SYSCALL_SSLEN arch macro in favor of using public _NSIGRich Felker-2/+0
the issue at hand is that many syscalls require as an argument the kernel-ABI size of sigset_t, intended to allow the kernel to switch to a larger sigset_t in the future. previously, each arch was defining this size in syscall_arch.h, which was redundant with the definition of _NSIG in bits/signal.h. as it's used in some not-quite-portable application code as well, _NSIG is much more likely to be recognized and understood immediately by someone reading the code, and it's also shorter and less cluttered. note that _NSIG is actually 65/129, not 64/128, but the division takes care of throwing away the off-by-one part.
2012-09-15fix buggy constraints in mips inline syscall asmRich Felker-2/+2
if same register is used for input/output, the compiler must be told. otherwise is generates random junk code that clobbers the result. in pure syscall-wrapper functions, nothing went wrong, but in more complex functions where register allocation is non-trivial, things broke badly.
2012-09-11improve mips syscall asm constraints to use immediates, if possibleRich Felker-12/+21
by using the "ir" constraint (immediate or register) and the carefully constructed instruction addu $2,$0,%2 which can take either an immediate or a register for %2, the new inline asm admits maximal optimization with no register spillage to the stack when the compiler successfully performs constant propagration, but still works by allocating a register when the syscall number cannot be recognized as a constant. in the case of syscalls with 0-3 arguments it barely matters, but for 4-argument syscalls, using an immediate for the syscall number avoids creating a stack frame for the syscall wrapper function.
2012-09-10eliminate assumption that mips syscall restart preserves r25Rich Felker-23/+12
all past and current kernel versions have done so, but there seems to be no reason it's necessary and the sentiment from everyone I've asked has been that we should not rely on it. instead, use r7 (an argument register) which will necessarily be preserved upon syscall restart. however this only works for 0-3 argument syscalls, and we have to resort to the function call for 4-argument syscalls.
2012-09-09inline syscall support for mipsRich Felker-0/+57
this drastically reduces the size of some functions which are purely syscall wrappers. disabled for clang due to known bugs satisfying register constraints.
2012-09-08syscall organization overhaulRich Felker-0/+41
now public syscall.h only exposes __NR_* and SYS_* constants and the variadic syscall function. no macros or inline functions, no __syscall_ret or other internal details, no 16-/32-bit legacy syscall renaming, etc. this logic has all been moved to src/internal/syscall.h with the arch-specific parts in arch/$(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.
