2017-02-06Consolidate arm and mips posix_fadvise implementationsAdhemerval Zanella
As noted by c1f0601389db64d9, previous posix_fadvise consolidation broke on mips o32. As stated in commit message, MIPS o32 only defines __NR_fadvise64 and it is behaves like __NR_fadvise64_64. This patches consolidates both ARM and mips o32 version by fixing the ARM used option (__NR_fadvise64_64 withouth the alignment required by abi) and added another option, __ASSUME_FADVISE64_AS_64_64, which is used on mips o32. When this option is used, posix_fadvise will use __NR_fadvise64_64 behavior (by defining or not __ASSUME_FADVISE64_64_6ARG). For mips, if __NR_fadvise64_64 is not defined, __NR_fadvise will be used. I also updated the posix_fadvise comments to explain better the different kernel abi used in the supported architectures. I checked with a mips o32 and verified that posix_fadvise.o is indeed using 7 argument syscall with the expected argument position. I also checked on i686-linux-gnu and arm-gnu-eabihf. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/posix_fadvise.c: Remove file. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips32/posix_fadvise.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/kernel-features.h (__ASSUME_FADVISE64_AS_64_64): Define. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/posix_fadvise.c [__NR_fadvise64]: Add !defined __ASSUME_FADVISE64_AS_64_64 to use syscall issue. [!__NR_fadvise64 && __ASSUME_FADVISE64_64_6ARG]: Remove __ALIGNMENT_ARG usage. [!__NR_fadvise64 && !__ASSUME_FADVISE64_64_6ARG]: Define __NR_fadvise64_64 if it is not defined.

2014-02-08Move arm from ports to libc.Joseph Myers
I've moved the ARM port from ports to the main sysdeps hierarchy. Beyond the README update, the move of the files was simply git mv ports/sysdeps/arm sysdeps/arm git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/arm sysdeps/unix/arm git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm and in addition to the ChangeLog entries here, I put a note at the top of ports/ChangeLog.arm similar to that at the top of ChangeLog.powerpc. There is deliberately no NEWS change, as I think it makes the most sense to put in a general note above all ports having moved if we can achieve that for 2.20. Tested that disassembly of installed shared libraries for arm is the same before and after this patch, except for data (not instructions) in ld.so (there are assertions in sysdeps/arm/dl-machine.h, and the path by which that file is found, and so by which it appears in the assertion message, changes as a result of the move). * sysdeps/arm: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/arm. * sysdeps/unix/arm: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/unix/arm. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm. * README: Update listing for arm-*-linux-gnueabi. ports/ChangeLog.arm: * sysdeps/arm: Move directory to ../sysdeps/arm. * sysdeps/unix/arm: Move directory to ../sysdeps.arm. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm: Move directory to ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm.
