      "message": "Make non-compat preadv/pwritev use native register size\n\nInstead of always splitting the file offset into 32-bit \u0027high\u0027 and \u0027low\u0027\nparts, just split them into the largest natural word-size - which in C\nterms is \u0027unsigned long\u0027.\n\nThis allows 64-bit architectures to avoid the unnecessary 32-bit\nshifting and masking for native format (while the compat interfaces will\nobviously always have to do it).\n\nThis also changes the order of \u0027high\u0027 and \u0027low\u0027 to be \"low first\".  Why?\nBecause when we have it like this, the 64-bit system calls now don\u0027t use\nthe \"pos_high\" argument at all, and it makes more sense for the native\nsystem call to simply match the user-mode prototype.\n\nThis results in a much more natural calling convention, and allows the\ncompiler to generate much more straightforward code.  On x86-64, we now\ngenerate\n\n        testq   %rcx, %rcx      # pos_l\n        js      .L122   #,\n        movq    %rcx, -48(%rbp) # pos_l, pos\n\nfrom the C source\n\n        loff_t pos \u003d pos_from_hilo(pos_h, pos_l);\n\t...\n        if (pos \u003c 0)\n                return -EINVAL;\n\nand the \u0027pos_h\u0027 register isn\u0027t even touched.  It used to generate code\nlike\n\n        mov     %r8d, %r8d      # pos_low, pos_low\n        salq    $32, %rcx       #, tmp71\n        movq    %r8, %rax       # pos_low, pos.386\n        orq     %rcx, %rax      # tmp71, pos.386\n        js      .L122   #,\n        movq    %rax, -48(%rbp) # pos.386, pos\n\nwhich isn\u0027t _that_ horrible, but it does show how the natural word size\nis just a more sensible interface (same arguments will hold in the user\nlevel glibc wrapper function, of course, so the kernel side is just half\nof the equation!)\n\nNote: in all cases the user code wrapper can again be the same. You can\njust do\n\n\t#define HALF_BITS (sizeof(unsigned long)*4)\n\t__syscall(PWRITEV, fd, iov, count, offset, (offset \u003e\u003e HALF_BITS) \u003e\u003e HALF_BITS);\n\nor something like that.  That way the user mode wrapper will also be\nnicely passing in a zero (it won\u0027t actually have to do the shifts, the\ncompiler will understand what is going on) for the last argument.\n\nAnd that is a good idea, even if nobody will necessarily ever care: if\nwe ever do move to a 128-bit lloff_t, this particular system call might\nbe left alone.  Of course, that will be the least of our worries if we\nreally ever need to care, so this may not be worth really caring about.\n\n[ Fixed for lost \u0027loff_t\u0027 cast noticed by Andrew Morton ]\n\nAcked-by: Gerd Hoffmann \u003ckraxel@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: H.

      "message": "preadv/pwritev: Add preadv and pwritev system calls.\n\nThis patch adds preadv and pwritev system calls.  These syscalls are a\npretty straightforward combination of pread and readv (same for write).\nThey are quite useful for doing vectored I/O in threaded applications.\nUsing lseek+readv instead opens race windows you\u0027ll have to plug with\nlocking.\n\nOther systems have such system calls too, for example NetBSD, check\nhere: http://www.daemon-systems.org/man/preadv.2.html\n\nThe application-visible interface provided by glibc should look like\nthis to be compatible to the existing implementations in the *BSD family:\n\n  ssize_t preadv(int d, const struct iovec *iov, int iovcnt, off_t offset);\n  ssize_t pwritev(int d, const struct iovec *iov, int iovcnt, off_t offset);\n\nThis prototype has one problem though: On 32bit archs is the (64bit)\noffset argument unaligned, which the syscall ABI of several archs doesn\u0027t\nallow to do.  At least s390 needs a wrapper in glibc to handle this.  As\nwe\u0027ll need a wrappers in glibc anyway I\u0027ve decided to push problem to\nglibc entriely and use a syscall prototype which works without\narch-specific wrappers inside the kernel: The offset argument is\nexplicitly splitted into two 32bit values.\n\nThe patch sports the actual system call implementation and the windup in\nthe x86 system call tables.  Other archs follow as separate patches.\n\nSigned-off-by: Gerd Hoffmann \u003ckraxel@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Arnd Bergmann \u003carnd@arndb.de\u003e\nCc: Al Viro \u003cviro@zeniv.linux.org.uk\u003e\nCc: \u003clinux-api@vger.kernel.org\u003e\nCc: \u003clinux-arch@vger.kernel.org\u003e\nCc: Ralf Baechle \u003cralf@linux-mips.org\u003e\nCc: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\nCc: Thomas Gleixner \u003ctglx@linutronix.de\u003e\nCc: \"H.

This fixes\nthat by adding the appropriate sleep and retry mechanism.\n\nSigned-off-by: Benjamin LaHaise \u003cbenjamin.c.lahaise@intel.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n"
