The changes in this patch will fix the binder interface for use on 64bit
machines and stand as the base of the 64bit compat support. The changes
apply to the structures that are passed between the kernel and
userspace.

Most of the changes applied mirror the change to struct binder_version
where there is no need for a 64bit wide protocol_version(on 64bit
machines). The change inlines with the existing 32bit userspace(the
structure has the same size) and simplifies the compat layer such that
the same handler can service the BINDER_VERSION ioctl.

Other changes make use of kernel types as well as user-exportable ones
and fix format specifier issues.

The changes do not affect existing 32bit ABI.

This should be unsigned to match the handle in binder_transaction_data
and other uses in the driver, but it is currently also used to pass
file descriptors. Perhaps this is better (if sou also change size of
the handle in binder_transaction_data to match):
__u32 handle; /* remote object */
__s32 fd; /* file descriptor */


I will add this union and fix any uses of remote object/ file descriptor
accordingly.

I still think the protocol_version size change on 64 bit systems
should go after all your other changes that affect 64 bits systems.
That way you don't have to change the protocol version later.

At the end of this patch set we will have support for 32/32 and 64/64 binder
calls. This patch does not add compat support for 64/32 systems and will not
work for this configuration.

However until we add:

static const struct file_operations binder_fops = {
.owner = THIS_MODULE,
.poll = binder_poll,
.unlocked_ioctl = binder_ioctl,
+ .compat_ioctl = binder_ioctl,
.mmap = binder_mmap,
.open = binder_open,
.flush = binder_flush,


The return value for any binder ioctl from a 32bit userspace running on top
of a 64bit kernel will be EINVAL (this happens only for 64/32 systems). Once
we have the compat layer upstreamed we will add the above change, but until
that point querying the binder version or any other binder iocall will fail
(on 64/32).

Let me know if you consider that changing the binder version to use __s32
when adding the compat layer would be better.


If the ioctl fails on for a 32 bit process on a 64 bit kernel, you can
change the size before adding the compat_ioctl, but you need to finish
all the changes that affect a 64/64 system first. You can either split
this change in two or move the entire change to the end of your
patch-set. Can you also post your changes that add 64/32 support?

Thanks again for the feedback - I will split the binder version change into its own patch.

I will rework my binder compat changes based on a 3.10 kernel and resend them.

Regards,
Serban
