From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> This is the fifth version of my series, now spanning four patches instead of two, with a new approach for handling struct ifreq compatibility after I realized that my earlier approach introduces additional problems. The idea here is to always push down the compat conversion deeper into the call stack: rather than pretending to be native mode with a modified copy of the original data on the user space stack, have the code that actually works on the data understand the difference between native and compat versions. I have spent a long time looking at all drivers that implement an ndo_do_ioctl callback to verify that my assumptions are correct. This has led to a series of ~30 additional patches that I am not including here but will post separately, fixing a number of bugs in SIOCDEVPRIVATE ioctls, removing dead code, and splitting ndo_do_ioctl into multiple new ndo callbacks for private and ethernet specific commands. Arnd Link: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20201124151828.169152-1-arnd@kernel.org/ Changes in v6: - Split out and expand linux/compat.h rework - Split ifconf change into two patches - Rebase on latest net-next/master Changes in v5: - Rebase to v5.14-rc2 - Fix a few build issues Changes in v4: - build fix without CONFIG_INET - build fix without CONFIG_COMPAT - style fixes pointed out by hch Changes in v3: - complete rewrite of the series Arnd Bergmann (6): compat: make linux/compat.h available everywhere ethtool: improve compat ioctl handling net: socket: rework SIOC?IFMAP ioctls net: socket: remove register_gifconf net: socket: simplify dev_ifconf handling net: socket: rework compat_ifreq_ioctl() arch/arm64/include/asm/compat.h | 14 +- arch/mips/include/asm/compat.h | 24 ++- arch/parisc/include/asm/compat.h | 14 +- arch/powerpc/include/asm/compat.h | 11 -- arch/s390/include/asm/compat.h | 14 +- arch/sparc/include/asm/compat.h | 14 +- arch/x86/include/asm/compat.h | 14 +- arch/x86/include/asm/signal.h | 1 + include/asm-generic/compat.h | 17 ++ include/linux/compat.h | 32 ++-- include/linux/ethtool.h | 4 - include/linux/inetdevice.h | 9 + include/linux/netdevice.h | 12 +- net/appletalk/ddp.c | 4 +- net/core/dev_ioctl.c | 153 +++++++++------- net/ethtool/ioctl.c | 136 ++++++++++++-- net/ieee802154/socket.c | 4 +- net/ipv4/af_inet.c | 6 +- net/ipv4/devinet.c | 4 +- net/qrtr/qrtr.c | 4 +- net/socket.c | 292 +++++++----------------------- 21 files changed, 352 insertions(+), 431 deletions(-)
