2015-08-25	Call direct system calls for socket operations	Rajalakshmi Srinivasaraghavan
	Explicit system calls for the socket operations were added in Linux kernel in commit 86250b9d12ca for powerpc. This patch make use of those instead of calling socketcall to save number of cycles on networking syscalls. 2015-08-25 Rajalakshmi Srinivasaraghavan <raji@linux.vnet.ibm.com> * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/kernel-features.h: Define new macros. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/accept.c: Call direct system call. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/bind.c: Call direct system call. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/connect.c: Call direct system call. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/getpeername.c: Call direct system call. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/getsockname.c: Call direct system call. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/getsockopt.c: Call direct system call. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/listen.c: Call direct system call. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/recv.c: Call direct system call. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/recvfrom.c: Call direct system call. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/recvmsg.c: Call direct system call. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/send.c: Call direct system call. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sendmsg.c: Call direct system call. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sendto.c: Call direct system call. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/setsockopt.c: Call direct system call. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/shutdown.c: Call direct system call. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/socket.c: Call direct system call. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/socketpair.c: Call direct system call.
2015-06-17	Fix mq_notify socket, recv namespace (bug 18546).	Joseph Myers
	mq_notify (in the 1996 edition of POSIX) brings in references to recv and socket (not in POSIX until the 2001 edition). This patch fixes this by using __recv and __socket, exporting them from libc at version GLIBC_PRIVATE. Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite and comparison of installed stripped shared libraries; PLT / dynamic symbol table changes render the comparison not particularly useful for libc). [BZ #18546] * socket/recv.c (__recv): Use libc_hidden_def. * socket/socket.c (__socket): Likewise. * sysdeps/mach/hurd/recv.c (__recv): Likewise. * sysdeps/mach/hurd/socket.c (__socket): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/generic/recv.c (__recv): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/recv.c (__recv): Use libc_hidden_weak. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/socket.c (__socket): Use libc_hidden_def. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/recv.c (__recv): Use libc_hidden_weak. * include/sys/socket.h (__socket): Do not use attribute_hidden. Use libc_hidden_proto. (__recv): Likewise. * socket/Versions (libc): Export __recv and __socket at version GLIBC_PRIVATE. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mq_notify.c (helper_thread): Call __recv instead of recv. (init_mq_netlink): Call __socket instead of socket. * conform/Makefile (test-xfail-POSIX/mqueue.h/linknamespace): Remove variable.
2015-05-22	Remove socket.S implementation	Adhemerval Zanella
	This patch removes the socket.S implementation for all ports and replace it by a C implementation using socketcall. For ports that implement the syscall directly, there is no change. The patch idea is to simplify the socket function implementation that uses the socketcall to be based on C implemetation instead of a pseudo assembly implementation with arch specific parts. The patch then remove the assembly implementatation for the ports which uses socketcall (i386, microblaze, mips, powerpc, sparc, m68k, s390 and sh). I have cross-build GLIBC for afore-mentioned ports and tested on both i386 and ppc32 without regressions.
