n32 and n64 ABIs add new argument registers vs o32, so that passing on
the stack is not necessary, so it's not clear why the 5- and
6-argument versions were special-cased to begin with; it seems to have
been pattern-copying from arch/mips (o32).
i've treated the new argument registers like the first 4 in terms of
clobber status (non-clobbered). hopefully this is correct.
this will allow the compiler to cache and reuse the result, meaning we
no longer have to take care not to load it more than once for the sake
of archs where the load may be expensive.
depends on commit 1c84c99913 for
correctness, since otherwise the compiler could hoist loads during
stage 3 of dynamic linking before the initial thread-pointer setup.
these were overlooked in the declarations overhaul work because they
are not properly declared, and the current framework even allows their
declared types to vary by arch. at some point this should be cleaned
up, but I'm not sure what the right way would be.
sys/ptrace.h is target specific, use bits/ptrace.h to add target
specific macro definitions.
these macros are kept in the generic sys/ptrace.h even though some
targets don't support them:
PTRACE_GETREGS
PTRACE_SETREGS
PTRACE_GETFPREGS
PTRACE_SETFPREGS
PTRACE_GETFPXREGS
PTRACE_SETFPXREGS
so no macro definition got removed in this patch on any target. only
s390x has a numerically conflicting macro definition (PTRACE_SINGLEBLOCK).
the PT_ aliases follow glibc headers, otherwise the definitions come
from linux uapi headers except ones that are skipped in glibc and
there is no real kernel support (s390x PTRACE_*_AREA) or need special
type definitions (mips PTRACE_*_WATCH_*) or only relevant for linux
2.4 compatibility (PTRACE_OLDSETOPTIONS).
In TLS variant I the TLS is above TP (or above a fixed offset from TP)
but on some targets there is a reserved gap above TP before TLS starts.
This matters for the local-exec tls access model when the offsets of
TLS variables from the TP are hard coded by the linker into the
executable, so the libc must compute these offsets the same way as the
linker. The tls offset of the main module has to be
alignup(GAP_ABOVE_TP, main_tls_align).
If there is no TLS in the main module then the gap can be ignored
since musl does not use it and the tls access models of shared
libraries are not affected.
The previous setup only worked if (tls_align & -GAP_ABOVE_TP) == 0
(i.e. TLS did not require large alignment) because the gap was
treated as a fixed offset from TP. Now the TP points at the end
of the pthread struct (which is aligned) and there is a gap above
it (which may also need alignment).
The fix required changing TP_ADJ and __pthread_self on affected
targets (aarch64, arm and sh) and in the tlsdesc asm the offset to
access the dtv changed too.
the output delay features (NL*, CR*, TAB*, BS*, and VT*) are
XSI-shaded. VT* is in the V* namespace reservation but the rest need
to be suppressed in base POSIX namespace.
unfortunately this change introduces feature test macro checks into
another bits header. at some point these checks should be simplified
by having features.h handle the "FTM X implies Y" relationships.
for synchronous page faults, new in linux commit
1c9725974074a047f6080eecc62c50a8e840d050 and
b6fb293f2497a9841d94f6b57bd2bb2cd222da43
note that only targets that use asm-generic/mman.h have this new
flag defined, so undef it on other targets (mips*, powerpc*).
use the same token to define TIOCSER_TEMT as is used in ioctl.h
so when both headers are included there are no redefinition warnings
during musl build.
it is defined in linux asm/sockios.h since commit
ae40eb1ef30ab4120bd3c8b7e3da99ee53d27a23 (linux v2.6.22)
but was missing from musl by accident.
in musl the sockios macros are exposed in sys/ioctl.h together
with other ioctl requests instead of in sys/socket.h because of
namespace rules. (glibc has them in sys/socket.h under _GNU_SOURCE.)
at one point, clang reportedly failed to support the asm register
constraints needed for inline syscalls. versions of clang that old
have much bigger problems that preclude using them to compile musl
libc.
mips64 requires 'struct stat' conversion due to incorrect 32-bit
fields where time_t should be in the kernel version of the structure.
syscall_arch.h already performed the correct translation for stat,
fstat, and lstat syscalls, but omitted special handling for fstatat.
aarch64, arm, mips, mips64, mipsn32, powerpc, powerpc64 and sh have
cpu feature bits defined in linux for AT_HWCAP auxv entry, so expose
those in sys/auxv.h
it seems the mips hwcaps were never exposed to userspace neither
by linux nor by glibc, but that's most likely an oversight.
mips and powerpc use their own asm/ioctls.h, not the asm-generic/ioctls.h
and they lack termiox macros that are available on other targets.
see kernel commit 1d65b4a088de407e99714fdc27862449db04fb5c
the (unused) speed fields were omitted when these ports were first
added (within this release cycle, so not present in any release yet)
in accordance with how glibc defines the structure on mips archs.
however their omission does not match existing musl practice/intent.
glibc provides its own, mostly-unified termios structure definition
and performs translation in userspace to match the kernel structure
for the arch, but has gratuitous differences on a few archs like mips,
presumably as a result of historical mistakes. some other libcs use
the kernel definitions directly. musl essentially does that, by
matching the kernel layout in the part of the structure the kernel
will read/write, but leaves additional space at the end for
extensibility. these are nominally the (nonstandard) speed fields and
(on most archs) extra c_cc elements, but since they are not used they
could be repurposed if there's ever a need.
the syscalls take an additional flag argument, they were added in commit
f17d8b35452cab31a70d224964cd583fb2845449 and a RWF_HIPRI priority hint
flag was added to linux/fs.h in 97be7ebe53915af504fb491fb99f064c7cf3cb09.
the syscall is not allocated for microblaze and sh yet.
mips32r6 and mips64r6 are actually new isas at both the asm source and
opcode levels (pre-r6 code cannot run on r6) and thus need to be
treated as a new subarch. the following changes are made, some of
which yield code generation improvements for non-r6 targets too:
- add subarch logic in configure script and reloc.h files for dynamic
linker name.
- suppress use of .set mips2 asm directives (used to allow mips2
atomic instructions on baseline mips1 builds; the kernel has to
emulate them on mips1) except when actually needed. they cause wrong
instruction encodings on r6, and pessimize inlining on at least some
compilers.
- only hard-code sync instruction encoding on mips1.
- use "ZC" constraint instead of "m" constraint for llsc memory
operands on r6, where the ll/sc instructions no longer accept full
16-bit offsets.
- only hard-code rdhwr instruction encoding with .word on targets
(pre-r2) where it may need trap-and-emulate by the kernel.
otherwise, just use the instruction mnemonic, and allow an arbitrary
destination register to be used.
it was introduced for offloading copying between regular files
in linux commit 29732938a6289a15e907da234d6692a2ead71855
(microblaze and sh does not yet have the syscall number.)
currently five targets use the same mman.h constants and the rest
share most constants too, so move them to sys/mman.h before the
bits/mman.h include where the differences can be corrected by
redefinition of the macros.
this fixes two minor bugs: POSIX_MADV_DONTNEED was wrong on most
targets (it should be the same as MADV_DONTNEED), and sh defined
the x86-only MAP_32BIT mmap flag.
these changes should not affect generated code, but they reflect that
the underlying objects operated on by a_cas_p are supposed to have
type volatile void *, not volatile long. in theory a compiler could
treat the effective type mismatch in the "m" memory operands as
undefined behavior.
apparently clang does not accept matching-register input and output
constraints that differ in size (32-bit vs 64-bit).
