I am a little bit confused here. We wrap the mmap to mmap2 in glibc
without shift the 4096 and We map mmap2 to mmap in kernel which
means we shift with the real page size. It works unless the
application want to mmap the offset bigger then 2G. In ILP32 app,
if the offset is bigger than 2G(e.g. 0xfb000000), it is a negative
number and extend to 64bit nagetive number in kernel
(0xfffffff fb000000). I add the "COMPAT_SYSCALL_WRAP6(mmap, ...)" in
kernel/compat_wrapper.c. But it is not works. I am not sure if it is
already sign extended in userspace.

On the other hand, I read the code of mmap in arm and other
architecture. Usually, they will shift 4096 in userspace and shift
others in kernel if needed. Should we follow the similar ways or we
could call mmap_pgoff in glibc and do the shift according the real
page shift(getpages())?

Thanks

In your ilp32-2.22 branch, you wrapper mmap to mmap2 in which type of
offset is off_t. And off_t is 32bit in ilp32, correct?
"sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64/ilp32/mmap64.c"
/* mmap is provided by mmap as they are the same. */
void *__mmap (void *__addr, size_t __len, int __prot,
                      int __flags, int __fd, __off_t __offset)
{

Ok, the different is I am talking about the offset in mmap. I am NOT
talking about the map result.
If I run my test case with strace:
"strace -e trace=mmap ./mmap.arm64_ilp32 0xfb000000 0x1000", here is
the part of log:

1 mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0xf7721000
2 mmap(NULL, 65536, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0xf7557000
3 page size<0x1000>, offset is <0xfb000000>
4 mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, 3, 0xfffffffffb000000) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
5 mmap of mmapfile failed

As you said, line 1 and 2 show that mmap could map above 2G. But it
is NOT what I want to discussion.
As I said, when I pass the offset above 2G(e.g. 0xfb0000000), we
could find that the actual offset pass to kernel is
0xfffffffffb000000(reference line 4).
It will fail if I map in /dev/mmem. It will not fail if the fd is
a normal file. But in both of case the offset is wrong.

Hi,

Sorry I forget to paste my test code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>

#define TEMPFILE "mmapfile"

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
	int fd;
	void *addr;
	unsigned long offset;
	unsigned long size;

	if (argc == 3) {
		if (argv[1][0] == '0' && argv[1][1] == 'x')
			offset = strtoll(&argv[1][2], NULL, 16);
		else
			offset = atoi(argv[1]);

		if (argv[2][0] == '0' && argv[2][1] == 'x')
			size = strtoll(&argv[2][2], NULL, 16);
		else
			size = atoi(argv[2]);
	} else {
		exit(2);
	}

	printf("page size<0x%x>, offset is <0x%x>\n", size, offset);
//	if ((fd = open(TEMPFILE, O_RDWR | O_CREAT, 0666)) < 0) {
//		fprintf(stderr, "opening %s failed\n", TEMPFILE);
//		exit(2);
//	}
	fd = open("/dev/mem", O_RDWR | O_SYNC);
	if (-1 == fd)
	{
		printf( "open /dev/mem fail!\n" );
		return 1;
	}

	//addr = mmap(0, size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_FILE | MAP_SHARED, fd, offset);
	addr = mmap(0, size, PROT_READ, MAP_FILE | MAP_SHARED, fd, offset);
	if(addr == MAP_FAILED) {
		fprintf(stderr, "mmap of %s failed\n", TEMPFILE);
		exit(2);
	}
	printf("addr: <0x%x>\n", addr);

	return 0;
}

__off_t should be 'long long' on new architectures, and map
to __kernel_loff_t.

Can you see how it is defined?

For kernel part, in "include/uapi/asm-generic/posix_types.h":
     #ifndef __kernel_long_t
     typedef long            __kernel_long_t;
     typedef unsigned long   __kernel_ulong_t;
     #endif
     typedef __kernel_long_t __kernel_off_t;
in "include/linux/types.h":
     typedef __kernel_off_t          off_t;

"include/uapi/asm-generic/posix_types.h" is uapi, we could not check
"ARCH_32BIT_OFF_T" here. Besides, the `__kernel_long_t` is long which
mean it is 32bit in ILP32. should we define something like x32?
     ```
     diff --git a/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/posix_types.h b/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/posix_types.h

      +typedef unsigned long long __kernel_ulong_t;
      +
       #include <asm-generic/posix_types.h>

       #endif /*  __ASM_POSIX_TYPES_H */u
     ```
After this definition, the following kernel types is 64bit in ILP32:
     typedef __kernel_long_t         __kernel_suseconds_t;
     typedef __kernel_long_t __kernel_ssize_t;
     typedef __kernel_long_t __kernel_ptrdiff_t;
     typedef __kernel_long_t __kernel_off_t;
     typedef __kernel_long_t __kernel_time_t;
     typedef __kernel_long_t __kernel_clock_t;
     typedef __kernel_ulong_t __kernel_ino_t;
     typedef __kernel_ulong_t __kernel_size_t;

But it is not a generic way to define off_t to 64bit if
ARCH_32BIT_OFF_T is not defined. How about this one? We need to
define `__kernel_off_t` on all the old 32bit architecture like
arm:
```
diff --git a/arch/arm/include/uapi/asm/posix_types.h b/arch/arm/include/uapi/asm/posix_types.h

```
And We could change the generic posix_types.h a little bit:
```

  typedef __kernel_long_t        __kernel_clock_t;
```

On the other hand, glibc define it own off_t in "bits/types.h":
     __STD_TYPE __OFF_T_TYPE __off_t;        /* Type of file sizes and offsets.  */
     __STD_TYPE __OFF64_T_TYPE __off64_t;    /* Type of file sizes and offsets (LFS).  */

in "sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64/bits/typesizes.h":
     #define __OFF_T_TYPE            __SLONGWORD_TYPE
     #define __OFF64_T_TYPE          __SQUAD_TYPE

If we define off_t as 64bit in glibc:
     #define __OFF_T_TYPE           __SQUAD_TYPE

Should We need to align all the off_t syscall to 64bit syscall in
kernel?

glibc does not use the definition of __kernel_off_t, it has its own
copy, so changing the kernel headers would do nothing.

This would break all sorts of things, because __kernel_long_t/__kernel_ulong_t
are not just used for off_t but also other things.

Yes, this is the change that I think we need to make, along with
the same change for __INO_T_TYPE and 

#define __OFF_T_MATCHES_OFF64_T        1
#define __INO_T_MATCHES_INO64_T        1

If I read the rest of the glibc headers right, that should be all we need
to ensure that both off_t and off64_t match the __kernel_loff_t based
syscalls.

Yes, I think so. I am puzzle that how do we ensure that all the new
32bit architecture will define off_t as 64bit after introduce
ARCH_32BIT_OFF_T and do not change any other code?

Yes. But if we do not change __kernel_long_t and __kernel_ulong_t, the
application of ilp32 will think size of long in kernel is 32bit. Is that
correct?

Ok, I will test the ltp syscall test.
With this changes, the issue I mentioned should be fixed. But we still
use mmap2 syscall for ILP32 application when we pass the offset instead
of page offset. Is it correct?

This is for historic reasons: we have two sets of system calls passing
file offsets: the original ones passing a 'long' are named e.g. lseek,
pread, pwrite, fadvise, ...

The replacement syscalls that pass a 'long long' __kernel_loff_t are only
available on 32-bit architectures and have different names, e.g. llseek,
pread64, pwrite64, fadvise64, ...

On 64-bit architectures, we only provide the first set, because
__kernel_off_t was already wide enough. On old 32-bit architectures
we have both, and on new 32-bit architectures we only have the second
set, which lets us use the same definitions on all 32-bit architectures.

No, __kernel_long_t refers to the definition of 'long' in the kernel/user
ABI, not in the kernel (except on the x86-64 "x32" ABI, which is weird).

A 32-bit user space application must not care about how 'long' is defined
in the kernel, it should run on either 32-bit kernels or 64-bit kernels.
We don't have any plans to do an ilp32-mode kernel, but if we ever want
one, it must use the exact same ABI as the 64-bit kernel when running
ilp32 user space.

I don't remember. It's probably not important whether we have the shift
in there, as long as it's independent of the actual kernel page size and
user space and kernel agree on the calling conventions.

Thanks, that is answer my question. I ask this because I saw the posix_types.h

Well. I am ok with where to shift the pages size because we get the same
result. I was just thinking if we should get rid of the name of mmap2 in our
ILP32 porting. Actually, it is mmap but we name it as mmap2. User may confused
if they do not know the implementations.

That is a good point: If the implementation matches the mmap() behavior rather than
mmap2(), we should rename the macro by doing

#undef __NR_mmap2
#define __NR_mmap 222

in the uapi/asm/unistd.h file for ilp32 mode. Alternatively we can keep the
__NR_mmap2 definition but then we need to pass the pgoff (value shifted by
12 bits) argument rather than the size in bytes.

Do you mean define the following things in kernel:
```
diff --git a/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h b/arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h
index 1caadc2..3f79640 100644

+
+#ifdef __ILP32__
+#undef __NR_mmap2
+#define __NR_mmap 222
+#endif /* #ifdef __ILP32__ */
+
```
Then glibc could call mmap instead of mmap2.
I could not try it now. Because after change off_t to 64bit in glibc, stat
is fail. I may need to revert the stat relative patch.

It means that we could reuse the existing code of mmap2 in kernel and glibc.
But we need to shift twice when kernel is 64k page.
It seems that the first method is more clear. Suggestion?

After revert stat relative patch in glibc, mmap01-mmap14 success. But mmap16
success with segfault. I will investigate it later.

There is pointer and size_t in mmap, so, IIUC, we need to clear the top halves
of register by using COMPAT_SYSCALL_WRAP6. And after check the function in
arch/s390/kernel/compat_linux.c, I feel that we need to do the same thing for
pread64 and pwrite64.

But I got following error when I try to add
COMPAT_SYSCALL_WRAP4(pread64, unsigned int, fd, char __user *, buf,
size_t, count, loff_t, pos);
COMPAT_SYSCALL_WRAP4(pwrite64, unsigned int, fd, const char __user *, buf,
size_t, count, loff_t, pos);

The error message:

Because the loff_t is not the long, unsigned long or pointer.

Hmm, that is indeed tricky. I think COMPAT_SYSCALL_WRAP4 rightfully
refuses the loff_t argument here, as the common case is that this is
not possible.

Can you open-code this using a COMPAT_SYSCALL4 definition similar to what
arch/tile has, but without the merging of the two halves of the argument?

It works if I apply the following patch, I defined the wrong `__TYPE_IS_xxx`
yesterday. Should we merge this into ILP32 series or send the compat.h
and syscalls.h individually? The current series of ILP32 is a little bit
long and hard to review.

I am lost here. Tile do not use the wrapper, and it do not use the loff_t
either:
COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE6(pread64, unsigned int, fd, char __user *, ubuf,
                        size_t, count, u32, dummy, u32, low, u32, high)

Generic unistd.h has this:

#ifdef __SYSCALL_COMPAT
#define __SC_COMP_3264(_nr, _32, _64, _comp) __SYSCALL(_nr, _comp)
#else
#define __SC_COMP_3264(_nr, _32, _64, _comp) __SC_3264(_nr, _32, _64)
#endif

#define __NR3264_mmap 222
__SC_3264(__NR3264_mmap, sys_mmap2, sys_mmap)


#if __BITS_PER_LONG == 64 && !defined(__SYSCALL_COMPAT)
#define __NR_mmap __NR3264_mmap
#else
#define __NR_mmap2 __NR3264_mmap
#endif

So by default we get __NR_mmap2 and sys_mmap2 on 32-bit ABIs, but
__NR_mmap and sys_mmap on 64-bit ABIs, as it should be.

The problem is that arch/arm64/kernel/sys_ilp32.c now overrides
this to use __NR_mmap2 with sys_mmap, so we have a mismatch. I think
we should either override both the implementation and the number,
or neither of them.

I think what happened is that you chose to override sys_mmap because
sys_mmap2 sometimes takes an off_t argument, however the kernel
just treats it as 'unsigned long', with a range of 44 bits for the
offset. Using sys_mmap with a __kernel_loff_t argument gives
us 64-bit range, but if we do that, I think it should be __NR_mmap.

I would vote for "neither of them" (so we use __NR_mmap2 and sys_mmap2)
to keep it close to new 32-bit architectures, even though we would have
some shifts by 12 in both glibc and kernel.

I don't think the shifts are a problem, the main downside would be
the limit to 44 bits of file offsets (16TB files), but it's also
unclear if that is a practical problem at all. If it is, we run
into the same problem on all other 32-bit architectures too.

I hope people are seriously thinking of moving to an LP64 ABI if they
have such large file offset needs.

Good point. 44 bits of file size is certainly enough for mmap()
on a 32-bit task: you would only be able to map a very small fraction
of the file anyway, and if you want to map larger files, and should
move to 64-bit tasks long before this becomes a limitation.
