parisc: io_pgetevents_time64() needs compat syscall in 32-bit compat mode

2022-08-01T16:43:24Z

For all syscalls in 32-bit compat mode on 64-bit kernels the upper 32-bits of the 64-bit registers are zeroed out, so a negative 32-bit signed value will show up as positive 64-bit signed value. This behaviour breaks the io_pgetevents_time64() syscall which expects signed 64-bit values for the "min_nr" and "nr" parameters. Fix this by switching to the compat_sys_io_pgetevents_time64() syscall, which uses "compat_long_t" types for those parameters. Cc: # v5.1+ Signed-off-by: Helge Deller

compat: remove some compat entry points

2021-09-08T22:32:35Z

These are all handled correctly when calling the native system call entry point, so remove the special cases.

exit/bdflush: Remove the deprecated bdflush system call

2021-07-12T20:17:47Z

The bdflush system call has been deprecated for a very long time. Recently Michael Schmitz tested[1] and found that the last known caller of of the bdflush system call is unaffected by it's removal. Since the code is not needed delete it.
