For the archives, the changes to the syscall table & the generation of the spu.tbl can be more-or-less generated with the script below (ignoring whitespace & comments). cheers #!/bin/bash git checkout v5.8-rc1 table=arch/powerpc/kernel/syscalls/syscall.tbl for number in {0..439} do line=$(grep -E "^$number\s+(common|spu)" $table) if [[ -n "$line" ]]; then read number abi name syscall compat <<< "$line" if [[ "$syscall" != "sys_ni_syscall" ]]; then if [[ "$name" == "utimesat" ]]; then # fix typo name="futimesat" fi echo -e "$number\t$name\tspu" continue fi fi line=$(grep -m 1 -E "^$number\s+" $table) read number abi name syscall compat <<< "$line" if [[ -n "$name" ]]; then echo -e "$number\t$name\t-" fi done > spu-generated.tbl cat $table | while read line do read number abi name syscall compat <<< "$line" if [[ "$number" == "#" ]]; then echo $line continue fi case "$abi" in "nospu") ;& "common") ;& "32") ;& "64") echo "$line" | sed -e "s/nospu/common/" ;; esac done > syscall-generated.tbl git cat-file -p 35e32a6cb5f6:$table | diff -w -u - syscall-generated.tbl git cat-file -p 35e32a6cb5f6:arch/powerpc/kernel/syscalls/spu.tbl | diff -w -u - spu-generated.tbl
