2020-02-14linux: Remove INTERNAL_SYSCALL_DECLAdhemerval Zanella
With all Linux ABIs using the expected Linux kABI to indicate syscalls errors, the INTERNAL_SYSCALL_DECL is an empty declaration on all ports. This patch removes the 'err' argument on INTERNAL_SYSCALL* macro and remove the INTERNAL_SYSCALL_DECL usage. Checked with a build against all affected ABIs.

Also, change sources.redhat.com to sourceware.org. This patch was automatically generated by running the following shell script, which uses GNU sed, and which avoids modifying files imported from upstream: sed -ri ' s,(http|ftp)(://(.*\.)?(gnu|fsf|sourceware)\.org($|[^.]|\.[^a-z])),https\2,g s,(http|ftp)(://(.*\.)?)sources\.redhat\.com($|[^.]|\.[^a-z]),https\2sourceware.org\4,g ' \ $(find $(git ls-files) -prune -type f \ ! -name '*.po' \ ! -name 'ChangeLog*' \ ! -path COPYING ! -path COPYING.LIB \ ! -path manual/fdl-1.3.texi ! -path manual/lgpl-2.1.texi \ ! -path manual/texinfo.tex ! -path scripts/config.guess \ ! -path scripts/config.sub ! -path scripts/install-sh \ ! -path scripts/mkinstalldirs ! -path scripts/move-if-change \ ! -path INSTALL ! -path locale/programs/charmap-kw.h \ ! -path po/libc.pot ! -path sysdeps/gnu/errlist.c \ ! '(' -name configure \ -execdir test -f configure.ac -o -f configure.in ';' ')' \ ! '(' -name preconfigure \ -execdir test -f preconfigure.ac ';' ')' \ -print) and then by running 'make dist-prepare' to regenerate files built from the altered files, and then executing the following to cleanup: chmod a+x sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/riscv/configure # Omit irrelevant whitespace and comment-only changes, # perhaps from a slightly-different Autoconf version. git checkout -f \ sysdeps/csky/configure \ sysdeps/hppa/configure \ sysdeps/riscv/configure \ sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/csky/configure # Omit changes that caused a pre-commit check to fail like this: # remote: *** error: sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/ppc-mcount.S: trailing lines git checkout -f \ sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/ppc-mcount.S \ sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/s390/s390-64/syscall.S # Omit change that caused a pre-commit check to fail like this: # remote: *** error: sysdeps/sparc/sparc64/multiarch/memcpy-ultra3.S: last line does not end in newline git checkout -f sysdeps/sparc/sparc64/multiarch/memcpy-ultra3.S

2015-12-31Fix linux personality syscall wrapperDmitry V. Levin
The personality system call, starting with linux kernel commit v2.6.29-6609-g11d06b2a1e5658f448a308aa3beb97bacd64a940, always successfully changes the personality if requested. The syscall wrapper, however, still can return an error in the following cases: - the value returned by the system call looks like an error due to architecture limitations of 32-bit kernels; - a personality greater than 0xffffffff is passed to the system call, and the 64-bit kernel does not have commit v2.6.35-rc1-372-g485d527686850d68a0e9006dd9904f19f122485e that would truncate this value to unsigned int; - on sparc64, the value returned by the system call looks like an error due to sparc64 kernel sign extension bug. The solution is three-fold: - move generic syscalls.list personality entry to generic 64-bit syscalls.list file; - for each 32-bit architecture that use negated errno semantics, add a NOERRNO personality entry to their syscalls.list file; - for sparc64 and 32-bit architectures that use dedicated registers to flag syscall errors, add a wrapper around personality syscall; if the system call return value is flagged as an error, this wrapper returns the negated "would be errno" value, otherwise it returns the system call return value; on sparc64, it also truncates the personality argument to unsigned int before passing it to the kernel.
