Hi, Alex,

I found that only o32 use the compat version of move_pages(), n32 use
the normal one. And both o32/n32 doesn't use the compat version of
migrate_pages(). That means they are all need to be fixed in this
patch?

Yes, both o32/n32 on 64-bit should be using the compat versions.

Hi Huacai,

The compat wrappers are needed for all of them for O32/N32 on a 64-bit
kernel. {get,set}mempolicy, mbind and migrate_pages all copy bitmaps to/from
user memory. The non-compat versions would behave fine on little endian, but
the compat versions are needed to convert the 32-bit bitmaps to 64-bit on
big endian.

move_pages takes an array of pointers, the compat version is needed to
convert that to 64-bit.

Hi, MIPS hackers,

Could anyone help me?

Hi, David,

After some code reading, I have some understanding about compat
syscall, please tell me whether I'm correct.
1, compat syscall is only needed by n32/o32 userspace on 64-bit kernel.
2, compat syscall is only needed when there are arguments in pointer
type.
3, compat syscall is only needed when pointer arguments are
array/struct/union for reading (reading means get_user or
copy_from_user), or pointer arguments are array/struct/union/long
integer for writing (writing means put_user or copy_to_user).

If my understanding is correct, then in this patch, get_mempolicy()
need to use the compat version for n32/o32 on 64-bit kernel, mbind()
and set_mempolicy() can use the normal version in all cases. But when
I reading the X86 code, it seems like only o32 on 64-bit kernel need a
compat version (I assume i386/X32/X64 on X86 is the same as
o32/n32/n64 on MIPS).

Please give some information, thanks.

Excuse me, what's the compat version exactly means? Or how to produce a
problem  without a compat version? It seems everything works fine just
with this patch.

Enable sys_mbind()/sys_get_mempolicy()/sys_set_mempolicy() for O32,

NACK.

You need compat versions of the syscalls...

Also current migrate_pages and move_pages syscalls need to use the
compat wrappers for 32-bit ABIs.
