Hi Clifford, Thanks for the report.
PowerPC problems should be reported to [EMAIL PROTECTED] This has been fixed in the current (approaching 2.6.24) kernel. It should be fixed in 2.6.23.xx, so I have cc'd this to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (and linuxppc-dev, of course). (Also, please post patches inline, don't attach them. And you need to reply to this with a Signed-off-by: line.) -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: Clifford Wolf <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi, In current 2.6.23 (I have checked 2.6.23.12 and 2.6.23.9) the end of include/asm-powerpc/systbl.h reads: --snip-- SYSCALL_SPU(getcpu) COMPAT_SYS(epoll_pwait) COMPAT_SYS_SPU(utimensat) COMPAT_SYS(fallocate) COMPAT_SYS_SPU(signalfd) COMPAT_SYS_SPU(timerfd) SYSCALL_SPU(eventfd) COMPAT_SYS_SPU(sync_file_range2) --snap-- This obviously does not match the definitions in asm-powerpc/unistd.h: --snip-- #define __NR_getcpu 302 #define __NR_epoll_pwait 303 #define __NR_utimensat 304 #define __NR_signalfd 305 #define __NR_timerfd 306 #define __NR_eventfd 307 #define __NR_sync_file_range2 308 #define __NR_fallocate 309 --snap-- which breaks the system calls 305 to 309 inclusive. --- linux-2.6.23.12/include/asm-powerpc/systbl.h.orig 2008-01-02 15:09:04.000000000 +0100 +++ linux-2.6.23.12/include/asm-powerpc/systbl.h 2008-01-02 15:09:29.000000000 +0100 @@ -308,8 +308,8 @@ SYSCALL_SPU(getcpu) COMPAT_SYS(epoll_pwait) COMPAT_SYS_SPU(utimensat) -COMPAT_SYS(fallocate) COMPAT_SYS_SPU(signalfd) COMPAT_SYS_SPU(timerfd) SYSCALL_SPU(eventfd) COMPAT_SYS_SPU(sync_file_range2) +COMPAT_SYS(fallocate) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
