Commit Message

Rohan McLure Aug. 24, 2022, 2:05 a.m. UTC
Cause syscall handlers to be typed as follows when called indirectly
throughout the kernel.

typedef long (*syscall_fn)(unsigned long, unsigned long, unsigned long,
                           unsigned long, unsigned long, unsigned long);

Since both 32 and 64-bit abis allow for at least the first six
machine-word length parameters to a function to be passed by registers,
even handlers which admit fewer than six parameters may be viewed as
having the above type.

Fixup comparisons in VDSO to avoid pointer-integer comparison. Introduce
explicit cast on systems with SPUs.

The point is... better type checking?

Ah you constify it in this patch. I think the previous patch should have
kept the const, and it should keep the unsigned long type rather than
use void *. Either that or do this patch first.

Is this necessary or should be in another patch?

Also perhaps this should have been in the prior pach and this pach
should change the cast from void to syscall_fn ?

Also these.

Good spot. This belongs in the patch that produces systbl.c.

This cast to (void *) kicks in when casting functions with six or fewer
parameters to six-parameter type accepting and returning u64. Sadly I can’t
find a way to avoid -Wcast-function-type even with (__force syscall_fn) short
of an ugly casti to void* here. Any suggestions?

Right, I was just wondering if it needs to be in the previous patch
because that's where you changed the type from unsigned long to void *.
Maybe there's some reason it's not required, I didn't entirely follow
all the macro expansion.

Ah okay. I think __force is a sparse specific attribute. Not sure if
gcc/clang can do it. There is a diag thing which maybe can turn off
warnings selectively, but if (void *) is turning off the warning
selectively then there would be no benefit to using it :) That's fine to
keep using void *.

Thanks,
Nick
