[git pull] poll annotations - second round
From: Al Viro
Date: Sat Feb 10 2018 - 14:24:27 EST
Preparations to solving the problems you've mentioned in the original poll
series. After this series, run
for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
done
(ideally - just before -rc1) for bulk search-and-replace. Then cherry-pick
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs.git#work.poll on top
of that and we should be done with that stuff - {de,}mangle_poll() unified,
no more separate kernel-side POLL... definitions.
Basically, that's what you suggested wrt KPOLL..., except that we can use
EPOLL... instead - they already are arch-independent (and equal to what is
currently kernel-side POLL...). After the preparations (in this series)
switch to returning EPOLL... from ->poll() instances is completely mechanical
and kernel-side POLL... can go away. The last step (killing kernel-side
POLL... and unifying {de,}mangle_poll() has to be done after the
search-and-replace job, since we need userland-side POLL... for unified
{de,}mangle_poll(), thus the cherry-pick at the last step.
After that we get
* POLL{IN,OUT,...} *not* in __poll_t, so any stray instances of ->poll()
still using those will be caught by sparse.
* eventpoll.c and select.c warning-free wrt __poll_t
* no more kernel-side definitions of POLL... - userland ones are
visible through the entire kernel (and used pretty much only for mangle/demangle)
* same behavior as after the first series (i.e. sparc et.al. epoll(2)
working correctly).
