#1357827 — linux-next: build failure after merge of the aio tree

FromStephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au>

Subjectlinux-next: build failure after merge of the aio tree
Message-ID<rcQXL-6S7-1@gated-at.bofh.it>
Hi Benjamin,

After merging the aio tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
ppc44x_defconfig) failed like this:

fs/built-in.o: In function `aio_thread_op_foo_at':
aio.c:(.text+0x4dab4): undefined reference to `__get_user_bad'
aio.c:(.text+0x4daec): undefined reference to `__get_user_bad'

Caused by commit

  150a0b4905f1 ("aio: add support for async openat()")

despite commit

  d2f7a973e11e ("aio: don't use __get_user() for 64 bit values")

This is due to a bug in the powerpc __get_user_check() macro (the return
value is defined to be "unsigned long" which is only 32 bits on a 32
bit platform).

I applied the patch below which seems to help (Michael, what do you
think?), but given Al's and Christoph's reactions, I am inclined to
remove the aio tree from tomorrow and maybe it can be revisited after
the merge window.

avr32 seems affected as well and the below solution is not suitable
(should be much more verbose in asm, I guess).

I've removed everything from the aio-next.git tree for now.  Will revisit 
after the merge window.

I've also sent a patch that fixes the link error on ARM and that should
work on all other architectures too.

I think it is the best solution right now.

In case of avr32 signalfd_read() fails. Does your patch help with it as well?

P.S. Bisecting shows same culprit: 150a0b4905f1 ("aio: add support for
async openat()")

I don't know. What is the symptom on avr32? My patch only removes the
get_user() instances on 64-bit values and replaces them with a
single copy_from_user() call.

Which is the wrong fix.  Arch code should be able to handle 64 bit values 
in all the get/put_user() variants.  We use 64 bit variables all over the 
place in interfaces to userspace.
