* Add generic sys_ipc wrapperChristoph Hellwig2010-03-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a generic implementation of the ipc demultiplexer syscall. Except for s390 and sparc64 all implementations of the sys_ipc are nearly identical. There are slight differences in the types of the parameters, where mips and powerpc as the only 64-bit architectures with sys_ipc use unsigned long for the "third" argument as it gets casted to a pointer later, while it traditionally is an "int" like most other paramters. frv goes even further and uses unsigned long for all parameters execept for "ptr" which is a pointer type everywhere. The change from int to unsigned long for "third" and back to "int" for the others on frv should be fine due to the in-register calling conventions for syscalls (we already had a similar issue with the generic sys_ptrace), but I'd prefer to have the arch maintainers looks over this in details. Except for that h8300, m68k and m68knommu lack an impplementation of the semtimedop sub call which this patch adds, and various architectures have gets used - at least on i386 it seems superflous as the compat code on x86-64 and ia64 doesn't even bother to implement it.

* sparc: prepare kernel/ for unificationSam Ravnborg2008-12-04
o sparc32 files with identical names to sparc64 renamed to <name>_32.S o introduced a few Kconfig helpers to simplify Makefile logic o refactored Makefile to prepare for unification - use obj-$(CONFIG_SPARC32) for sparc32 specific files - use <name>_$(BITS) for files where sparc64 has a _64 variant - sparc64 directly include a few files where sparc32 builds them, refer to these files directly (no BITS) - sneaked in -Werror as used by sparc64 o modified sparc/Makefile to use the new names for head/init_task Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
