As noted by c1f0601389db64d9, previous posix_fadvise consolidation broke on mips o32. As stated in commit message, MIPS o32 only defines __NR_fadvise64 and it is behaves like __NR_fadvise64_64. This patches consolidates both ARM and mips o32 version by fixing the ARM used option (__NR_fadvise64_64 withouth the alignment required by abi) and added another option, __ASSUME_FADVISE64_AS_64_64, which is used on mips o32. When this option is used, posix_fadvise will use __NR_fadvise64_64 behavior (by defining or not __ASSUME_FADVISE64_64_6ARG). For mips, if __NR_fadvise64_64 is not defined, __NR_fadvise will be used. I also updated the posix_fadvise comments to explain better the different kernel abi used in the supported architectures. I checked with a mips o32 and verified that posix_fadvise.o is indeed using 7 argument syscall with the expected argument position. I also checked on i686-linux-gnu and arm-gnu-eabihf. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/posix_fadvise.c: Remove file. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips32/posix_fadvise.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/kernel-features.h (__ASSUME_FADVISE64_AS_64_64): Define. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/posix_fadvise.c [__NR_fadvise64]: Add !defined __ASSUME_FADVISE64_AS_64_64 to use syscall issue. [!__NR_fadvise64 && __ASSUME_FADVISE64_64_6ARG]: Remove __ALIGNMENT_ARG usage. [!__NR_fadvise64 && !__ASSUME_FADVISE64_64_6ARG]: Define __NR_fadvise64_64 if it is not defined.
This directory contains the sources of the GNU C Library. See the file "version.h" for what release version you have. The GNU C Library is the standard system C library for all GNU systems, and is an important part of what makes up a GNU system. It provides the system API for all programs written in C and C-compatible languages such as C++ and Objective C; the runtime facilities of other programming languages use the C library to access the underlying operating system. In GNU/Linux systems, the C library works with the Linux kernel to implement the operating system behavior seen by user applications. In GNU/Hurd systems, it works with a microkernel and Hurd servers. The GNU C Library implements much of the POSIX.1 functionality in the GNU/Hurd system, using configurations i[4567]86-*-gnu. The current GNU/Hurd support requires out-of-tree patches that will eventually be incorporated into an official GNU C Library release. When working with Linux kernels, this version of the GNU C Library requires Linux kernel version 3.2 or later on all architectures except i[4567]86 and x86_64, where Linux kernel version 2.6.32 or later suffices. Also note that the shared version of the libgcc_s library must be installed for the pthread library to work correctly. The GNU C Library supports these configurations for using Linux kernels: aarch64*-*-linux-gnu alpha*-*-linux-gnu arm-*-linux-gnueabi hppa-*-linux-gnu Not currently functional without patches. i[4567]86-*-linux-gnu x86_64-*-linux-gnu Can build either x86_64 or x32 ia64-*-linux-gnu m68k-*-linux-gnu microblaze*-*-linux-gnu mips-*-linux-gnu mips64-*-linux-gnu powerpc-*-linux-gnu Hardware or software floating point, BE only. powerpc64*-*-linux-gnu Big-endian and little-endian. s390-*-linux-gnu s390x-*-linux-gnu sh[34]-*-linux-gnu sparc*-*-linux-gnu sparc64*-*-linux-gnu tilegx-*-linux-gnu tilepro-*-linux-gnu If you are interested in doing a port, please contact the glibc maintainers; see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/ for more information. See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, and install the GNU C Library. You might also consider reading the WWW pages for the C library at http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/. The GNU C Library is (almost) completely documented by the Texinfo manual found in the `manual/' subdirectory. The manual is still being updated and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like. For corrections to the manual, please file a bug in the `manual' component, following the bug-reporting instructions below. Please be sure to check the manual in the current development sources to see if your problem has already been corrected. Please see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/bugs.html for bug reporting information. We are now using the Bugzilla system to track all bug reports. This web page gives detailed information on how to report bugs properly. The GNU C Library is free software. See the file COPYING.LIB for copying conditions, and LICENSES for notices about a few contributions that require these additional notices to be distributed. License copyright years may be listed using range notation, e.g., 1996-2015, indicating that every year in the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that would otherwise be listed individually.
