The subject should of course be changed, as it is no longer being enabled by default.
Something like kcmp: Support selection of SYS_kcmp without CHECKPOINT_RESTORE Quoting Chris Wilson (2021-02-05 21:06:10) > Userspace has discovered the functionality offered by SYS_kcmp and has > started to depend upon it. In particular, Mesa uses SYS_kcmp for > os_same_file_description() in order to identify when two fd (e.g. device > or dmabuf) point to the same struct file. Since they depend on it for > core functionality, lift SYS_kcmp out of the non-default > CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE into the selectable syscall category. > > Note that some distributions such as Ubuntu are already enabling > CHECKPOINT_RESTORE in their configs and so, by extension, SYS_kcmp. > > References: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/-/issues/3046 > Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <ch...@chris-wilson.co.uk> > Cc: Kees Cook <keesc...@chromium.org> > Cc: Andy Lutomirski <l...@amacapital.net> > Cc: Will Drewry <w...@chromium.org> > Cc: Andrew Morton <a...@linux-foundation.org> > Cc: Dave Airlie <airl...@gmail.com> > Cc: Daniel Vetter <dan...@ffwll.ch> > Cc: Lucas Stach <l.st...@pengutronix.de> > Acked-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vet...@ffwll.ch> # DRM depends on SYS_kcmp > > --- > v2: > - Default n. > - Borrrow help message from man kcmp. > - Export get_epoll_tfile_raw_ptr() for CONFIG_KCMP > --- > fs/eventpoll.c | 4 ++-- > include/linux/eventpoll.h | 2 +- > init/Kconfig | 12 ++++++++++++ > kernel/Makefile | 2 +- > tools/testing/selftests/seccomp/seccomp_bpf.c | 2 +- > 5 files changed, 17 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/fs/eventpoll.c b/fs/eventpoll.c > index a829af074eb5..3196474cbe24 100644 > --- a/fs/eventpoll.c > +++ b/fs/eventpoll.c > @@ -979,7 +979,7 @@ static struct epitem *ep_find(struct eventpoll *ep, > struct file *file, int fd) > return epir; > } > > -#ifdef CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE > +#ifdef CONFIG_KCMP > static struct epitem *ep_find_tfd(struct eventpoll *ep, int tfd, unsigned > long toff) > { > struct rb_node *rbp; > @@ -1021,7 +1021,7 @@ struct file *get_epoll_tfile_raw_ptr(struct file *file, > int tfd, > > return file_raw; > } > -#endif /* CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE */ > +#endif /* CONFIG_KCMP */ > > /** > * Adds a new entry to the tail of the list in a lockless way, i.e. > diff --git a/include/linux/eventpoll.h b/include/linux/eventpoll.h > index 0350393465d4..593322c946e6 100644 > --- a/include/linux/eventpoll.h > +++ b/include/linux/eventpoll.h > @@ -18,7 +18,7 @@ struct file; > > #ifdef CONFIG_EPOLL > > -#ifdef CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE > +#ifdef CONFIG_KCMP > struct file *get_epoll_tfile_raw_ptr(struct file *file, int tfd, unsigned > long toff); > #endif > > diff --git a/init/Kconfig b/init/Kconfig > index b77c60f8b963..1b75141bc18b 100644 > --- a/init/Kconfig > +++ b/init/Kconfig > @@ -1194,6 +1194,7 @@ endif # NAMESPACES > config CHECKPOINT_RESTORE > bool "Checkpoint/restore support" > select PROC_CHILDREN > + select KCMP > default n > help > Enables additional kernel features in a sake of checkpoint/restore. > @@ -1737,6 +1738,17 @@ config ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_CALLBACKS > config ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_SYNC_CORE > bool > > +config KCMP > + bool "Enable kcmp() system call" if EXPERT > + default n > + help > + Enable the kernel resource comparison system call.
