Commit Message

Dmitry V. Levin Jan. 15, 2025, 11:37 p.m. UTC
MIPS n32 is one of two ILP32 architectures supported by the kernel
that have 64-bit syscall arguments (another one is x32).

When this test passed 32-bit arguments to syscall(), they were
sign-extended in libc, PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO reported these
sign-extended 64-bit values, and the test complained about the mismatch.

Fix this by passing arguments of the appropriate type to syscall(),
which is "unsigned long long" on MIPS n32, and __kernel_ulong_t on other
architectures.

As a side effect, this also extends the test on all 64-bit architectures
by choosing constants that don't fit into 32-bit integers.

Could somebody pick up this patch, please?

Nothing has changed since v2, so I have nothing new to add.

v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250115233747.GA28541@strace.io/

What's the reason for adding these typedefs? checkpatch should
have warned you about adding new typedefs.

Also this introduces kernel_ulong_t in user-space test code.
Something to avoid.

You could use ifdef here.

 FWIW I agree, and I fail to see a reason why this would be a problem in a 
standalone test program where the typedef does not propagate anywhere.  

 The only potential issue I can identify would be a namespace clash, so 
perhaps the new type could have a name prefix specific to the test, but it 
doesn't appear to me a widespread practice across our selftests and then
`kernel_' ought to be pretty safe against ISO C or POSIX, so perhaps let's 
leave the things alone?

It causes problems down the road for maintenance. I would rather not
see these types of kernel typedefs added to user-space.

Can't this be solved with ifdef?
