I've never seen this bug before. Can you please check if it exists in
4.9 or 5.2 versions? Can you share the full reproducer and/or
corresponding test in LTP?

ARM64/ILP32 is not a version of x32. ABI concept and implementation
are different. I understand your criticism about x32, but this project
is closer to mips, spark or power compatibility layers.

In the kernel we have more than 10 implementations of compatibility
layers, and only one causes serious troubles, AFAIK.

To Catalin, Arnd:

At least Marvell, Samsung, Huawei, Cisco and Weiyuchen's employer
actively use and develop arm64/ilp32. I receive feedback / bugrepotrs
on ilp32 every 4-6 month. Is that enough for you to reconsider
including the project into the mainline?

For me, having different versions of ILP32 is more dangerous in this
situation, than upstreaming the project and fixing 2-3 bugs a year.

Thanks,
Yury

I believe that glibc has the infrastructure now to integrate an ILP32
port fairly cleanly, although given that it would be first
post-libpthread work, it would have to absorb some of the cleanup work
for such a configuration.

(I do not plan to work on this myself.)

time64 would require syscall abi design changes.
(that's likely an abi break compared to what the

The kernel port uses the generic syscall ABI, and has done so from the start,
so both time32 and time64 syscalls are supported in principle, as they are
on any other 32-bit architecture these days (except rv32, which dropped
the time32 variant, and x32, which uses the time64 calling conventions but
the time32 syscall names).

The kernel port uses the generic syscall ABI, and has done so from the start,
so both time32 and time64 syscalls are supported in principle, as they are
on any other 32-bit architecture these days (except rv32, which dropped
the time32 variant, and x32, which uses the time64 calling conventions but
the time32 syscall names).

i haven't seen the updated ilp32 patches on top of
the time64 work: the glibc side only uses time32 on
ilp32 currently, but adding a new 32bit port now to
glibc requires 64bit time_t which means some things
would have to be done differently.

the glibc changes would likely not be compatible
with whatever the current ilp32 users do and on
the kernel side it would be better to only expose
time64 like on rv32, which is a syscall abi change.

I think the overall tradeoff is not that different from what it was in the
past. Keeping it out of the tree clearly creates extra work both for you
and the users, but reduces the overhead for everyone else, who
can ignore that corner case. We have tried removing both x86-x32
support and arm64 big-endian support from the kernel not that long
ago. Both have considerably more impact on kernel maintenance than
your aarch64-ilp32 work, and they probably even have fewer users,
but we always ended up keeping the status quo.

However, there are clearly some changes that happened over the
past few years that may be relevant here:

- The expectation in the past was that ilp32 support would eventually
   go away as users move on to full 64-bit support. It has survived a
   lot longer than I would have guessed, but I still find it hard to tell
   whether this would continue. What's more important than the current
   number of users is how many of those you expect to run linux-6.x
   or linux-7.x with aarch64-ilp32 in the future.

- Another thing that has changed is that we now have a rough timeline
  for aarch32 support to be removed from future Arm processors. If
  no Armv9 processors after 2022 support Aarch32 mode, we may see
  interest in ilp32 mode go up between 2025 and 2030 when those
  processors make it into more markets.

- On the other hand, interest in not just 32-bit hardware running Linux
  but also in 32-bit user space is already declining overall. We'll
  probably still see some 10 to 20 years of 32-bit user space
  deployments on (mostly) memory constrained systems, but this
  is getting increasingly obscure as more applications run into
  virtual memory space restrictions (3GB or 4GB typically) before
  they exceed the available RAM. On RV64 and ARCv3, there is
  already a conclusion that they will not support 32-bit user space,
  neither ilp32 style on 64-bit instructions nor with hardware support
  for RV32/ARC32 binaries. I expect the same for Loongarch.

The latest kernel supported by me is 5.2:
https://github.com/norov/linux/commits/ilp32-5.2

I know about working ports of ILP32 on 5.7 and 5.10, but didn't see
the code and testing results. Hopefully Paul Moore and Weiyuchen will
share more details.

To be clear, I have not done any work with ILP32 nor do I have any
immediate plans to do so (other tasks are higher priority).  I am not
sure what details you are looking for, but there are several
arches/ABIs in the kernel, including regular aarch64, that can serve
as examples on how to enable syscall auditing (presumably that is what
you are interested in with this thread).  There may be some
interesting challenges with ILP32 due to overlap with aarch64
syscalls, but I haven't looked closely enough at ILP32 to say that
with any certainty.
