It looks like parisc is also suffering:
http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/kisskb/buildresult/12343847/
Due to:
ERROR: "__get_user_bad" [drivers/gpu/drm/drm.ko] undefined!
make[1]: *** [__modpost] Error 1
Caused by commit d34f20d6e2f (drm: Atomic modeset ioctl).
Yeah, it needs a get_user() that supports 64-bit data.
Hi Geert,
I assume you mean m68k, where 64 bit support for get_user has been disabled.
The problem on powerpc is different though: __get_user_nocheck()
and __get_user_check() use
unsigned long __gu_val;
followed by
__get_user_size(__gu_val, __gu_addr, (size), __gu_err);
__get_user_size() fails in
if (size > sizeof(x))
(x) = __get_user_bad();
Presumably "unsigned long" is 32 bit on 32 bit powerpc, not 64 bit.
Overall, the explicit 64-bit use of get_user() seems to be quite unusual.
I noticed you've sent a fix for DRM.
Doh, and I was just fixing m68k...
Sorry, should have Cc:'d you.
