The patch titled flag parameters: dup2 has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is flag-parameters-dup2.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: flag parameters: dup2 From: Ulrich Drepper <drepper@xxxxxxxxxx> This patch adds the new dup3 syscall. It extends the old dup2 syscall by one parameter which is meant to hold a flag value. Support for the O_CLOEXEC flag is added in this patch. The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <time.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #ifndef __NR_dup3 # ifdef __x86_64__ # define __NR_dup3 292 # elif defined __i386__ # define __NR_dup3 330 # else # error "need __NR_dup3" # endif #endif int main (void) { int fd = syscall (__NR_dup3, 1, 4, 0); if (fd == -1) { puts ("dup3(0) failed"); return 1; } int coe = fcntl (fd, F_GETFD); if (coe == -1) { puts ("fcntl failed"); return 1; } if (coe & FD_CLOEXEC) { puts ("dup3(0) set close-on-exec flag"); return 1; } close (fd); fd = syscall (__NR_dup3, 1, 4, O_CLOEXEC); if (fd == -1) { puts ("dup3(O_CLOEXEC) failed"); return 1; } coe = fcntl (fd, F_GETFD); if (coe == -1) { puts ("fcntl failed"); return 1; } if ((coe & FD_CLOEXEC) == 0) { puts ("dup3(O_CLOEXEC) set close-on-exec flag"); return 1; } close (fd); puts ("OK"); return 0; } ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Signed-off-by: Ulrich Drepper <drepper@xxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: <linux-arch@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- arch/x86/ia32/ia32entry.S | 1 + arch/x86/kernel/syscall_table_32.S | 1 + fs/fcntl.c | 15 +++++++++++++-- include/asm-x86/unistd_32.h | 1 + include/asm-x86/unistd_64.h | 2 ++ include/linux/syscalls.h | 1 + 6 files changed, 19 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff -puN arch/x86/ia32/ia32entry.S~flag-parameters-dup2 arch/x86/ia32/ia32entry.S --- a/arch/x86/ia32/ia32entry.S~flag-parameters-dup2 +++ a/arch/x86/ia32/ia32entry.S @@ -734,4 +734,5 @@ ia32_sys_call_table: .quad compat_sys_signalfd4 .quad sys_eventfd2 .quad sys_epoll_create2 + .quad sys_dup3 /* 330 */ ia32_syscall_end: diff -puN arch/x86/kernel/syscall_table_32.S~flag-parameters-dup2 arch/x86/kernel/syscall_table_32.S --- a/arch/x86/kernel/syscall_table_32.S~flag-parameters-dup2 +++ a/arch/x86/kernel/syscall_table_32.S @@ -329,3 +329,4 @@ ENTRY(sys_call_table) .long sys_signalfd4 .long sys_eventfd2 .long sys_epoll_create2 + .long sys_dup3 /* 330 */ diff -puN fs/fcntl.c~flag-parameters-dup2 fs/fcntl.c --- a/fs/fcntl.c~flag-parameters-dup2 +++ a/fs/fcntl.c @@ -126,13 +126,16 @@ static int dupfd(struct file *file, unsi return fd;
