Can you summarize your complains here (or maybe in patch for Documentation)? It will be good for ilp32 because we will check the series against all possible problems, and it will be good for history because future compat architectures developers will be aware. On your following questions, I'll try answer according to my understanding. If it's wrong or incomplete, I kindly ask others fix me. > You say “ILP32 has context-related structures different from both aarch32 and > aarch64/lp64.” Why? Why not just use the lp64 context structure? Because the alternative is nothing better than how we do now. We can make rt_sigframe for ilp32 look exactly like lp64. But on user side we will have to add pads therefore. On the kernel side, before passing rt_sigframe to kernel, we will have to make sure that pads are zeroed, just like we do with x0-x7 in delouse_pt_regs() before passing syscall arguments to handlers. So we cannot get rid of get/set_sigframe() converters in this case. Current approach lets us keep user part looking more natural, and on kernel side we don't add complexity because we reuse existing aarch32 or existing lp64 handlers, and don't invent something new. > Do you have some objection to letting greg_t be a u64 on ilp32? In binfmt_ilp32.c we #define compat_elf_gregset_t elf_gregset_t So in fact we use 64-bit gregset. Or I misunderstood you? > Since you can’t tell LP64 and ILP32 syscalls apart by number, you need to add > and wire up a new AUDIT_ARCH value for ILP32. syscall_get_arch() needs to work correctly. Thanks for pointing to this. I'll append AUDIT_ARCH patch to this series. Yury
