2006-12-17[ARM] Add more syscallsRussell King
Add: sys_unshare sys_set_robust_list sys_get_robust_list sys_splice sys_arm_sync_file_range sys_tee sys_vmsplice sys_move_pages sys_getcpu Special note about sys_arm_sync_file_range(), which is implemented as: asmlinkage long sys_arm_sync_file_range(int fd, unsigned int flags, loff_t offset, loff_t nbytes) { return sys_sync_file_range(fd, offset, nbytes, flags); } We can't export sys_sync_file_range() directly on ARM because the argument list someone picked does not fit in the available registers. Would be nice if... there was an arch maintainer review mechanism for new syscalls before they hit the kernel. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2006-10-02[PATCH] rename the provided execve functions to kernel_execveArnd Bergmann
Some architectures provide an execve function that does not set errno, but instead returns the result code directly. Rename these to kernel_execve to get the right semantics there. Moreover, there is no reasone for any of these architectures to still provide __KERNEL_SYSCALLS__ or _syscallN macros, so remove these right away.

2006-03-21[ARM] noMMU: block sys_fork in nommu modeHyok S. Choi
The sys_fork is not supported in nommu mode. The other syscalls that is not supported in nommu mode are to be defined as cond_signal in kernel/sys_ni.c. Signed-off-by: Hyok S. Choi <hyok.choi@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2006-01-14[ARM] 3110/5: old ABI compat: multi-ABI syscall entry supportNicolas Pitre
Patch from Nicolas Pitre This patch adds the required code to support both user space ABIs at the same time. A second syscall table is created to include legacy ABI syscalls that need an ABI compat wrapper. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2005-09-01[ARM] 2865/2: fix fadvise64_64 syscall argument passingNicolas Pitre
Patch from Nicolas Pitre The prototype for sys_fadvise64_64() is: long sys_fadvise64_64(int fd, loff_t offset, loff_t len, int advice) The argument list is therefore as follows on legacy ABI: fd: type int (r0) offset: type long long (r1-r2) len: type long long (r3-sp[0]) advice: type int (sp[4]) With EABI this becomes: fd: type int (r0) offset: type long long (r2-r3) len: type long long (sp[0]-sp[4]) advice: type int (sp[8]) Not only do we have ABI differences here, but the EABI version requires one additional word on the syscall stack. To avoid the ABI mismatch and the extra stack space required with EABI this syscall is now defined with a different argument ordering on ARM as follows: long sys_arm_fadvise64_64(int fd, int advice, loff_t offset, loff_t len) This gives us the following ABI independent argument distribution: fd: type int (r0) advice: type int (r1) offset: type long long (r2-r3) len: type long long (sp[0]-sp[4]) Now, since the syscall entry code takes care of 5 registers only by default including the store of r4 to the stack, we need a wrapper to store r5 to the stack as well. Because that wrapper was missing and was always required this means that sys_fadvise64_64 never worked on ARM and therefore we can safely reuse its syscall number for our new sys_arm_fadvise64_64 interface.

2005-05-05[PATCH] ARM: Fix kernel stack offset calculationsRussell King
Various places in the ARM kernel implicitly assumed that kernel stacks are always 8K due to hard coded constants. Replace these constants with definitions. Correct the allowable range of kernel stack pointer values within the allocation. Arrange for the entire kernel stack to be zeroed, not just the upper 4K if CONFIG_DEBUG_STACK_USAGE is set.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
