[PATCH] MIPS: Add get_thread_area syscall
From: Guoyun Sun
Date: Fri Dec 13 2019 - 01:16:14 EST
CRIU(https://criu.org/) tools will dump TLS(Thread Local Storage) by
get_thread_area during checkpoint and restore TLS by set_thread_area during
restore. without syscall get_thread_area, criu restore will fail on MIPS
platform.because a variable with GCC __thread is invalid.
The following function will be called when criu restore
static inline void restore_tls(tls_t *ptls) {
asm volatile(
"move $4, %0 \n"
"li $2, "__stringify(__NR_set_thread_area)" \n"
"syscall \n"
:
: "r"(*ptls)
: "$4","$2","memory");
With this patch, the *ptls can be obtained by get_thread_area on MIPS
platform when criu checkpoint. just like this:
static inline void arch_get_tls(tls_t *ptls)
{
asm volatile(
"move $4, %0 \n"
"li $2, "__stringify(__NR_get_thread_area)" \n"
"syscall \n"
:
: "r"(ptls)
: "$4","$2","memory");
}
