Test 32 progress and 64 progress on the 64bit system with
this progress:
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int fd = 0;
int i, ret = 0;
char buf[512];
unsigned long count = -1;
fd = open("/tmp", O_RDONLY);
if (fd < -1) {
printf("Pls check the directory is exist?\n");
return -1;
}
errno = 0;
ret = read(fd, NULL, count);
printf("Ret is %d errno %d\n", ret, errno);
close(fd);
return 0;
}
we get the different errno. The 64 progress we get errno is -14 while
the 32 progress is -21.
The reason is that, the user progress would use a 32bit count, while
the sys_read size_t in kernel is 64bit. When the uesrspace count is
-1(0xffffffff), it goes to the sys_read, it would be change to a positive
number.
So I think we should add a compat_sys_read for the read syscall. I test it
on x86 or arm64 platform. The patch works well.
As well this patch may do work for the 'tile' 64 system.
I think it may enter the same result on mips/parisc/powerpc/sparc.
The s390 do the compat_sys_s390_read for the compat sys_read.
