With this patch, x86 and x86-64 share ioport.c, fixing LTP iopl and ioperm testcase failures (on both). We found an iopl testcase failing even on x86 xenlinux. Now x86-64 xenlinux should have the same results regarding the LTP testcases (as far as we tested).

Commit 111e7b15cf10f6 ("x86/ioperm: Extend IOPL config to control ioperm() as well") reworked the iopl syscall to use I/O bitmaps. Unfortunately this broke Xen PV domains using that syscall as there is currently no I/O bitmap support in PV domains. Add I/O bitmap support via a new paravirt function update_io_bitmap which Xen PV domains can use to update their I/O bitmaps via a

This patch series makes it possible to compile out the iopl and ioperm system calls, which allow privileged processes to request permission to directly poke I/O ports from userspace. Nothing on a modern Linux system uses these calls anymore, and anything new should be using /dev/port instead, or better yet writing a driver. Copying the bloat-o-meter stats from the final patch: 32-bit

Hi, I just tried to install WINE. I first tried from a terminal but I couldn't navagate to; home/jon/desktop for some reason. I'm not too adept on the command line so I tried to install directly from the downloaded file. Everything looked good until I got this ; <top/wine_1.1.27~winehq1-1_i386.deb' ;echo RESULT=$?

This patch series makes it possible to compile out the userspace IO system calls, iopl and ioperm. The first patch does some 32/64 unification in copy_thread to make subsequent changes easier. The second patch simplifies the complex calculation of the TSS segment limit, which also makes it easier to change in the last patch. Patches 3-9 introduce helpers to make it easier to compile out IO.

The 32-bit and 64-bit versions of copy_thread have functionally identical handling for copying the I/O bitmap, modulo differences in error handling. Clean up the error paths in both by moving the copy of the I/O bitmap to the end, to eliminate the need to free it if subsequent copy steps fail; move the resulting identical code to a static inline in a common header.
