RFC: pwritev2 regression test for invalid flags

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



After the issue with LO_HI_LONG definition on x86_64-linux-gnu, I planed to add 
this patch to check the above patch for correct check for invalid flags (which
would also have show this issue with LO_HI_LONG being used on p{read,write}v2).

However it seems to trigger what I think it is a kernel bug on version that
provides p{read,write}v, where preadv2 does fails with EOPNOTSUPP but
pwritev2 does not.  For instance, on x86_64-linux-gnu-x32 and i686-linux-gnu
(4.10.0-21-generic/x86_64):

[...]
[pid  1027] preadv2(3, 0xff96d3d0, 1, 0, 0x8 /* RWF_??? */) = -1 EOPNOTSUPP (Operation not supported)
[pid  1027] pwritev2(3, [{"\0\360bVl\206\4\10\0\0\0\0Z=l\367t\372\226\377\214\362`\367\f\0\0\0\0\320\4\10", 32}], 1, 0, 0x8 /* RWF_??? */) = 32
[...]

And on sparcv9-linux-gnu (4.12.0-rc1-sparc64-smp):

[...]
[pid 139846] preadv2(3, [{iov_base=0xffefcd88, iov_len=32}], 1, 0, 0x8 /* RWF_??? */) = -1 EOPNOTSUPP (Operation not supported)
[pid 139846] pwritev2(3, [{iov_base="\377\357\315\300p\1f\314\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\2p\3@\10\0\2B\260p\3+\330\0\1\21\220", iov_len=32}], 1, 0, 0x8 /* RWF_??? */) = 32
[...]

For both on 64 bits syscalls works as intended. For instance on x86-64
aforementioned kernel:

[...]
[pid 24276] preadv2(3, 0x7ffd084c1ee0, 1, 0, 0x8 /* RWF_??? */) = -1 EOPNOTSUPP (Operation not supported)
[pid 24276] pwritev2(3, [{"\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0!`\331\311\304\177\0\0\220\37L\10\375\177\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 32}], 1, 0, 0x8 /* RWF_??? */) = -1 EOPNOTSUPP (Operation not supported)
[...]

I haven't tested on newer kernels or on different architectures (these
are the ones I have readily available). Any idea why kernel ignores invalid
flags for pwritev2 on compatibility mode? Does it invalidate the testcase?

PS: I am copying the ones on the original pwritev2/preadv2 email about the
status of the syscall on glibc [1].
