2019-10-30Make __syscall_error return long, as expected by syscall() callersCarlos Santos
The return type of syscall() is long so __syscall_error, which is jumped to by syscall handlers to stash an error number into errno, must return long too otherwhise it returs 4294967295L instead of -1L. For example, syscall for x86_64 is defined in libc/sysdeps/linux/x86_64/syscall.S as syscall: movq %rdi, %rax /* Syscall number -> rax. */ movq %rsi, %rdi /* shift arg1 - arg5. */ movq %rdx, %rsi movq %rcx, %rdx movq %r8, %r10 movq %r9, %r8 movq 8(%rsp),%r9 /* arg6 is on the stack. */ syscall /* Do the system call. */ cmpq $-4095, %rax /* Check %rax for error. */ jae __syscall_error /* Branch forward if it failed. */ ret /* Return to caller. */ In libc/sysdeps/linux/x86_64/__syscall_error.c, __syscall_error is defined as int __syscall_error(void) attribute_hidden; int __syscall_error(void) { register int err_no __asm__ ("%rcx"); __asm__ ("mov %rax, %rcx\n\t" "neg %rcx"); __set_errno(err_no); return -1; } So __syscall_error returns -1 as a 32-bit int in a 64-bit register, %rax (0x00000000ffffffff, whose decimal value is decimal 4294967295) and a test like this always returns false: if (syscall(number, ...) == -1) foo(); Fix the error by making __syscall_error return a long, like syscall(). The problem can be circumvented by the caller by coercing the returned value to int before comparing it to -1: if ((int) syscall(number, ...) == -1) foo(); The same problem probably occurs on other 64-bit systems but so far only x86_64 was tested, so this change must be considered experimental.

2018-02-03bits/mman.h: consolidate header fileWaldemar Brodkorb
Sync with GNU C library and consolidate duplicate non architecture specific defines. MAP_UNINITIALIZED is only defined to 0x4000000 and used by the Linux kernel when CONFIG_MMAP_ALLOW_UNINITIALIZED is enabled. CONFIG_MMAP_ALLOW_UNINITIALIZED is only available for nommu. See Documentation/nommu-mmap.txt.
2017-08-10sys/ptrace.h: remove obsolete Linux PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL constantWaldemar Brodkorb
Remove enum __ptrace_flags along with the only constant it contains, PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL, from Linux's sys/ptrace.h files. Following GNU C library commit: 60e2846e2633a990bdf474004a373bde54c0bc5f
2017-06-23sparc64: add basic supportWaldemar Brodkorb
No NPTL, no LDSO support. Bootup with Busybox Ash in Qemu working. Testuite shows only two failures, but mksh continue/break support doesn't work.
