[PATCH 1/2] compat ABI: use non-compat openat and open_by_handle_at variants

The only difference is that non-compat version forces O_LARGEFILE, and it should be the default behaviour for all architectures, as we don't support 32-bit off_t. The only exception is tile32, that continues with compat version of syscalls. Signed-off-by: Yury Norov ---

This patch fixes multiple problems with the current clock calculations: 1. The A10/A20 datasheet contains the formula AHB_CLK / (2^(n+1)) to calculate SPI_CLK from CDR1, but this formula is wrong. The actual formula - determined by analyzing the actual waveforms - is AHB_CLK / (2^n). 2. The

The conclusion seems to be that it is useful to override the value, so we can just drop this semantic patch. julia -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at

[PATCH 0/2] ABI: handle 32-bit off_t for 32-bit and compat ABIs

32-bit off_t is supported only for old 32-bit and compat ABIs. New ABIs are 64-bit length only. This patchset makes 64-bit length the default for off_t, and reverts it for old architectures where needed. It does not change the behaviour of existing code. First patch makes all compat users of

[PATCH 2/2] 32-bit ABI: introduce ARCH_32BIT_OFF_T config option

All new 32-bit architectures should have 64-bit off_t type, but existing architectures has 32-bit ones. To handle it, new config option is added to arch/Kconfig that defaults ARCH_32BIT_OFF_T to be disabled by default. All existing 32-bit architectures enable it explicitly here. New option

[PATCH 1/2] compat ABI: use non-compat openat and open_by_handle_at variants

The only difference is that non-compat version forces O_LARGEFILE, and it should be the default behaviour for all architectures, as we don't support 32-bit off_t. The only exception is tile32, that continues with compat version of syscalls. Signed-off-by: Yury Norov
