Hi Tim,

Quoted 10 lines

I am working on a patch that removes the old limit of NGROUPS.

In doing so, I am checking everything that references NGROUPS. One such place is in arch/s390x/kernel/linux32.c.

I notice these things:
* s390x defines __kernel_old_gid_t to __kernel_gid_t (unsigned int)
* s390x has a sys32_getgroups16() which looks JUST LIKE uid16.c sys_getgroups16
* s390x does not define CONFIG_UID16, but seems to need it

The early versions of 64 bit s390x did not have the 31 bit emulation layer. As long as only 64 bit code is executed you don't need the 16 bit uids/gids. Thats why is isn't defined.

Quoted 4 lines

It seems to me that if we do:
* s390x defines CONFIG_UID16
* typedef __kernel_old_gid_t to u16
* get rid of all the sys32_*16 stuff and just call the uid16.c function

I checked the code and didn't find any reason why this shouldn't work. In fact with the 31 bit emulation layer the 64 bit kernel does need the 16 bit uid/gid system calls although only for the emulation. To make it really perfect you could define CONFIG_UID16 dependent on CONFIG_S390_SUPPORT. This saves a few bytes in the image if the emulation support is not enabled.

We could save a bit of duplicated code. Patches that remove code are good, right?

Definitly.

Ok, done. I don't know if you guys prefer BK or plain-old patch, so I'll do this:

Attached are the two patches (one as sent before, the other is just the above change). You can apply the patches, or if you prefer, ping me back and I'll put a bk repository up publicly for you. The patches are probably easiest.

This change will make my life easier for the rest of the ngroups crap I am fixing. I will commit this locally on teh assumption it will turn up sooner or later on your end.

Now, for 2.5.x - do you want me to do another patchset, or are these close enough?

Thanks.

It seems to me that if we do:
* s390x defines CONFIG_UID16
* typedef __kernel_old_gid_t to u16
* get rid of all the sys32_*16 stuff and just call the uid16.c function

I checked the code and didn't find any reason why this shouldn't work. In fact with the 31 bit emulation layer the 64 bit kernel does need the 16 bit uid/gid system calls although only for the emulation. To make it really perfect you could define CONFIG_UID16 dependent on CONFIG_S390_SUPPORT. This saves a few bytes in the image if the emulation support is not enabled.

Uggh, DaveM pointed out a very good issue with this fix (similar for Sparc64) and core files. Core files will now have truncated uid/gid values because fs/binfmt_elf calls NEW_TO_OLD_UID(). May be other places, too.

I guess you should not apply this patch until I've had a better think about it.
