This is an accident waiting to happen. Clean it up by favoring the full-service version; the limited version is replaced with double-underscore versions static to kernel/compat.c. A common pattern is to convert a struct timespec to kernel format in an allocation on the user stack. Unfortunately it is open-coded in several places. Since this allocation isn't actually needed if COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME is true (since user format == kernel format) encapsulate that whole pattern into the function compat_convert_timespec(). An equivalent function should be written for struct timeval if it is needed in the future. Finally, get rid of compat_(get|put)_timeval_convert(): each was only used once, and the latter was not even doing what the function said (no conversion actually was being done.) Moving the conversion into compat_sys_settimeofday() itself makes the code much more similar to sys_settimeofday() itself. v3: Remove unused compat_convert_timeval(). v2: Drop bogus "const" in the destination argument for compat_convert_time*().

This adds timekeeping support to the 32-bit vdso that we already have in the 64-bit vdso. Although 32-bit x86 is legacy, it is likely to remain in the embedded space for a very long time to come. This removes the traditional COMPAT_VDSO support; the configuration variable is reused for simply removing the 32-bit vdso, which will produce correct results but obviously suffer a performance penalty. Only one beta version of glibc was affected, but that version was unfortunately included in one OpenSUSE release. This is not the end of the vdso cleanups. Stefani and Andy have agreed to continue work for the next kernel cycle; in fact Andy has already produced another set of cleanups that came too late for this cycle. An incidental, but arguably important, change is that this ensures that unused space in the VVAR page is properly zeroed. It wasn't before, and would contain whatever garbage was left in memory by BIOS or the bootloader.

As a result, if it ends up being a partial page, the kernel loader will leave garbage behind at the end of the vvar page. Zero-pad it to a full page to fix this issue. This has probably been broken since the VVAR page was introduced. On QEMU, if you dump the run-time contents of the VVAR page, you can find entertaining strings from seabios left behind. It's remotely possible that this is a security bug -- conceivably there's some BIOS out there that leaves something sensitive in the few K of memory that is exposed to userspace.

Due the nature of the kernel headers and the LP64 compiler where the size of a long and a pointer differs against a 32 bit compiler, there is some type hacking necessary for optimal performance. The vsyscall_gtod_data struture must be a rearranged to serve 32- and 64-bit code access at the same time: - The seqcount_t was replaced by an unsigned, this makes the vsyscall_gtod_data intedepend of kernel configuration and internal functions. - All kernel internal structures are replaced by fix size elements which works for 32- and 64-bit access - The inner struct clock was removed to pack the whole struct. The "unsigned seq" would be handled by functions derivated from seqcount_t.

We currently have three different "little environments" (boot, boot/compressed, and realmode/rm) in x86, and we are likely to soon get a fourth one (kexec/purgatory, which will have to be integrated in the kernel to support secure kexec). This is primarily a cleanup in the anticipation of the latter. While Vivek implemented this, he ran into some bugs, in particular the memcmp implementation for when gcc punts from using the builtin would have a misnamed symbol, causing compilation errors if we were ever unlucky enough that gcc didn't want to inline the test" * 'x86/boot' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86, boot: Move memset() definition in compressed/string.c x86, boot: Move memcmp() into string.h and string.c x86, boot: Move optimized memcpy() 32/64 bit versions to compressed/string.c x86, boot: Create a separate string.h file to provide standard string functions x86, boot: Undef memcmp before providing a new definition

I think one of the reasons of this need is inclusion of various header files which define static inline functions and use memset() inside these. For example, include/linux/bitmap.h I think trying to include "../string.h" and using builtin version of memset does not work because by the time "#define memset" shows up, it is too late. Some other header file has already used memset() and expects to find a definition during link phase. Currently we have a C definitoin of memset() in misc.c. Move it to compressed/string.c so that others can use it if need be.

By default memcpy, memset and memcmp functions will default to gcc builtin functions. If code wants to use an optimized version of any of these functions, they need to #undef the respective macro and link against a local file providing definition of undefed function. For example, arch/x86/boot/* code links against copy.S to get memcpy() and memcmp() definitions. arch/86/boot/compressed/* links against compressed/string.c. There are quite a few places in arch/x86/ where these functions are used. Idea is to try to consilidate their declaration and possibly definitions so that it can be reused. I am planning to reuse boot/string.h in arch/x86/purgatory/ and use gcc builtin functions for memcpy, memset and memcmp.

And that macro in turn changes the name of memcmp() defined here and converts it to __builtin_memcmp(). I thought that's not the intention though. We probably want to provide our own optimized definition of memcmp(). If yes, then undef the memcmp before we define a new memcmp.
