Subject: [git pull] vfs.git part 2
Date: Wed, 5 Jul 2017 08:14:37 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170705071437.GZ10672@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> (raw)

	Consolidating sys_wait* and compat counterparts.  Gets rid of
set_fs()/double-copy mess, simplifies the whole thing (lifting the
copyouts to the syscalls means less headache in the part that does
actual work - fewer failure exits, to start with), gets rid of the
overhead of field-by-field __put_user().

The following changes since commit a8c39544a6eb2093c04afd5005b6192bd0e880c6:

  osf_wait4(): fix infoleak (2017-05-21 13:10:07 -0400)

  osf_wait4: switch to kernel_wait4() (2017-05-21 13:16:26 -0400)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Al Viro (9):
      move compat wait4 and waitid next to native variants
      wait4(2)/waitid(2): separate copying rusage to userland
      kernel_wait4()/kernel_waitid(): delay copying status to userland
      waitid(2): leave copyout of siginfo to syscall itself
      lift getrusage() from wait_noreap_copyout()
      kill wait_noreap_copyout()
      wait_task_zombie: consolidate info logics
      waitid(): switch copyout of siginfo to unsafe_put_user()
      osf_wait4: switch to kernel_wait4()
