Linux 5.11 has one new syscall, epoll_pwait2. Update
syscall-names.list and regenerate the arch-syscall.h headers with
build-many-glibcs.py update-syscalls.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py.
Linux 5.10 has one new syscall, process_madvise. Update
syscall-names.list and regenerate the arch-syscall.h headers with
build-many-glibcs.py update-syscalls.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py.
Linux 5.9 has one new syscall, close_range. Update syscall-names.list
and regenerate the arch-syscall.h headers with build-many-glibcs.py
update-syscalls.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py.
Linux 5.8 has one new syscall, faccessat2. Update syscall-names.list
and regenerate the arch-syscall.h headers with build-many-glibcs.py
update-syscalls.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py.
Linux 5.6 has new openat2 and pidfd_getfd syscalls. This patch adds
them to syscall-names.list and regenerates the arch-syscall.h files.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py.
The new tables are currently only used for consistency checks
with the installed kernel headers and the architecture-independent
system call names table. They are based on Linux 5.4.
The goal is to use these architecture-specific tables to ensure
that system call wrappers are available irrespective of the version
of the installed kernel headers.
The tables are formatted in the form of C header files so that they
can be used directly in an #include directive, without external
preprocessing. (External preprocessing of a plain table file
would introduce cross-subdirectory dependency issues.) However,
the intent is that they can still be treated as tables and can be
processed by simple tools.
The irregular system call names on 32-bit arm add a complication.
The <fixup-asm-unistd.h> header is introduced to work around that,
and the system calls are listed under regular names in the
<arch-syscall.h> file.
A make target, update-syscalls-list, is added to patch the glibc
sources with data from the current kernel headers.
