	without this, the SIOCGSTAMP and SIOCGSTAMPNS ioctl commands, for obtaining timestamps, would stop working on pre-5.1 kernels after time_t is switched to 64-bit and their values are changed to the new time64 versions. new code is written such that it's statically unreachable on 64-bit archs, and on existing 32-bit archs until the macro values are changed to activate 64-bit time_t.
2018-06-20	work around broken kernel struct ipc_perm on some big endian archs	Rich Felker	-0/+2
	the mode member of struct ipc_perm is specified by POSIX to have type mode_t, which is uniformly defined as unsigned int. however, Linux defines it with type __kernel_mode_t, and defines __kernel_mode_t as unsigned short on some archs. since there is a subsequent padding field, treating it as a 32-bit unsigned int works on little endian archs, but the order is backwards on big endian archs with the erroneous definition. since multiple archs are affected, remedy the situation with fixup code in the affected functions (shmctl, semctl, and msgctl) rather than repeating the same shims in syscall_arch.h for every affected arch.
2016-08-11	fix pread/pwrite syscall calling convention on sh	Rich Felker	-0/+1
	despite sh not generally using register-pair alignment for 64-bit syscall arguments, there are arch-specific versions of the syscall entry points for pread and pwrite which include a dummy argument for alignment before the 64-bit offset argument.
2015-06-16	switch to using trap number 31 for syscalls on sh	Rich Felker	-1/+1
	nominally the low bits of the trap number on sh are the number of syscall arguments, but they have never been used by the kernel, and some code making syscalls does not even know the number of arguments and needs to pass an arbitrary high number anyway. sh3/sh4 traditionally used the trap range 16-31 for syscalls, but part of this range overlapped with hardware exceptions/interrupts on sh2 hardware, so an incompatible range 32-47 was chosen for sh2. using trap number 31 everywhere, since it's in the existing sh3/sh4 range and does not conflict with sh2 hardware, is a proposed unification of the kernel syscall convention that will allow binaries to be shared between sh2 and sh3/sh4. if this is not accepted into the kernel, we can refit the sh2 target with runtime selection mechanisms for the trap number, but doing so would be invasive and would entail non-trivial overhead.
2014-02-27	rename superh port to "sh" for consistency	Rich Felker	-0/+87
	linux, gcc, etc. all use "sh" as the name for the superh arch. there was already some inconsistency internally in musl: the dynamic linker was searching for "ld-musl-sh.path" as its path file despite its own name being "ld-musl-superh.so.1". there was some sentiment in both directions as to how to resolve the inconsistency, but overall "sh" was favored.
