From d44a052c499a3e2908862cff28cdb85d8aec246f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joseph Myers Date: Wed, 13 Aug 2014 16:06:18 +0000 Subject: Fix powerpc32 __get_clockfreq for non-power4 (bug 17263). In my powerpc32 testing I've observed misc/test-gettimebasefreq failing. This is a glibc build (soft-float, though that's not relevant here) without any --with-cpu and without any special configuration of the default CPU for GCC either. In particular, it's one not using sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/power4/hp-timing.h (although in fact the processor I'm using for testing is POWER4-based), so hp_timing_t is 32-bit not 64-bit. But the VDSO call being used by INTERNAL_VSYSCALL_NO_SYSCALL_FALLBACK is generating a 64-bit result (high part in r3, low part in r4). The code extracting that result, however, expects a result of the type hp_timing_t as passed to INTERNAL_VSYSCALL_NO_SYSCALL_FALLBACK, meaning that only r3 (= 0) is used and the value in r4 is ignored. This patch fixes this by always using uint64_t as the type in INTERNAL_VSYSCALL_NO_SYSCALL_FALLBACK - reflecting the actual ABI (unconditional in the kernel) of that VDSO call. This is the minimal change for this issue - no check for overflow, no change of the type of the timebase_freq variable or the return type of __get_clockfreq to something other than hp_timing_t (such a change would simply move the implicit conversions to the over callers of that function), no change to hp_timing_t itself. Tested for powerpc32 soft float. [BZ #17263] * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/get_clockfreq.c: Include . (__get_clockfreq): Use uint64_t instead of hp_timing_t in INTERNAL_VSYSCALL_NO_SYSCALL_FALLBACK call. --- sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/get_clockfreq.c | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/get_clockfreq.c') diff --git a/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/get_clockfreq.c b/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/get_clockfreq.c index 8b37943863..62217b1ca3 100644 --- a/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/get_clockfreq.c +++ b/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/get_clockfreq.c @@ -18,6 +18,7 @@ #include #include +#include #include #include #include @@ -42,7 +43,7 @@ __get_clockfreq (void) #ifdef SHARED INTERNAL_SYSCALL_DECL (err); timebase_freq = - INTERNAL_VSYSCALL_NO_SYSCALL_FALLBACK (get_tbfreq, err, hp_timing_t, 0); + INTERNAL_VSYSCALL_NO_SYSCALL_FALLBACK (get_tbfreq, err, uint64_t, 0); if (INTERNAL_SYSCALL_ERROR_P (timebase_freq, err) && INTERNAL_SYSCALL_ERRNO (timebase_freq, err) == ENOSYS) #endif -- cgit v1.2.3-70-g09d2
