[PATCH] Linux: Support __IPC_64 in sysvctl *ctl command arguments

Florian Weimer fweimer@redhat.com
Tue Nov 8 15:00:56 GMT 2022


Old applications pass __IPC_64 as part of the command argument because
old glibc did not check for unknown commands, and passed through the
arguments directly to the kernel, without adding __IPC_64.
Applications need to continue doing that for old glibc compatibility,
so this commit enables this approach in current glibc.

For msgctl and shmctl, if no translation is required, make
direct system calls, as we did before the time64 changes.  If
translation is required, mask __IPC_64 from the command argument.

For semctl, the union-in-vararg argument handling means that
translation is needed on all architectures.

Tested on i686-linux-gnu, powerpc64le-linux-gnu, x86_64-linux-gnu.
Built with build-many-glibcs.py.
