Subject: [PATCH 00/45] remove in-kernel syscall invocations (part 3 == remainder outside arch/)
Here is a third series of patches which reduce the number of syscall
invocations from within the kernel. Once this long-term goal is achieved,
the syscall entry path can be streamlined.
This series builds on top of
- part1 (random bits and pieces)
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180315190529.20943-1-linux@dominikbrodowski.net
- part2 (net)
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180316170614.5392-1-linux@dominikbrodowski.net
and replaces the RFC of a subset of this series. Most of the patches are
just "mindless" conversions and helpers. If wrappers or helpers are limited
to one subsystem, I have named them do_*(), kern_*() or __sys_*(), depending
on what was used by the subsystem and/or what was still available. Otherwise,
I have used ksys_*() to reflect that this is meant as a drop-in replacement
for sys_*() within the kernel.
With this third series, *all* in-kernel callers of sys_*() and compat_sys_*()
outside of arch/ are converted.[*] On top of this, three things may be
attempted now:
- ptregs system call conversion for x86-64.
- re-work initramfs etc. code to not use in-kernel equivalents of
syscalls, but operate on the VFS level instead.
- re-work SYSCALL_DEFINEx() / COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() to do the right
thing depending on arch-specific requirements on padding, long long handling,
etc. (Al Viro).
Also thrown in are a patch by Michael Tautschnig to use proper
SYSCALL_DEFINE0() macros on x86 and a patch by Howard McLauchlan to whitelist
all syscalls for error injection.
The whole series, including part 1 and part 2, can be found at
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brodo/linux.git syscalls-next
Thanks,
Dominik
[*] Within arch, only x86 is fully covered by these series.
