Commit Message

Arnd Bergmann Sept. 8, 2018, 2:28 p.m. UTC
MTIOCPOS and MTIOCGET are incompatible between 32-bit and 64-bit user
space, and traditionally have been translated in fs/compat_ioctl.c.

To get rid of that translation handler, move a corresponding
implementation into each of the four drivers implementing those commands.

The interesting part of that is now in a new linux/mtio.h header that
wraps the existing uapi/linux/mtio.h header and provides an abstraction
to let drivers handle both cases easily.

Ugh...  Frankly, this bool compat passed all way down looks wrong.
I can live with that; the question is whether block folks will be
OK with that thing...

I have tried to come up with an alternative, but couldn't really find anything
that is less ugly. Since nobody else complained, I'll resend this version
along with the other patches.

Actually, there was one idea that Deepa mentioned for another subsystem
with a similar issue: instead of passing down the fact that we come from
a compat syscall through multiple function calls, the lowest ones
(put_user_mtpos, put_user_mtget) could call in_compat_syscall().

Would you prefer that?
