fbdev sbuslib cleanups

fbdev sbuslib cleanups

[Christoph Hellwig]

Hi all,

this series cleans up the fbdev sbuslib support, most importantly by
removing usage of the deprecated compat_alloc_user_space API.

[PATCH 1/3] fbdev/sbuslib: remove FBIOSCURSOR/FBIOGCURSOR leftovers

[Christoph Hellwig]

There are no actual implementations of FBIOSCURSOR/FBIOGCURSOR left, so
don't bother with a compat handler for it, and remove the remaining
definitions as well.

[PATCH 2/3] fbdev/sbuslib: refactor sbusfb_ioctl_helper

[Christoph Hellwig]

Refactor sbusfb_ioctl_helper into a bunch of self-contained helpers,
to prepare for improvements to the compat ioctl handler.

[PATCH 3/3] fbdev/sbuslib: avoid compat_alloc_user_space in fbiogetputcmap

[Christoph Hellwig]

Rewrite fbiogetputcmap to call the low-level sbusfb_ioctl_{put,get}cmap
helpers directly and thus avoid usage of the deprecated
compat_alloc_user_space API.

I had submitted a similar patch earlier, and Sam Ravnborg applied it to the
drm-misc tree, but it doesn't seem to be in linux-next, so I don't know
what the state is.

My version only removed the compat handling, not the data structures,
so I'm happy to see your version used instead if mine got lost.

Oh, sorry.  I thought in your summary you decided to give up on
the sbuslib ones.

This is another one that I had already addressed in a somewhat inferior way.
I attempted the same kind of cleanup that you did in patch 2/3 but failed to
convince myself that I had managed to avoid regressions, so my patch just
copy-pasted the native implementation into the compat handler with minor
changes.

Provided that your preparation patch is correct, this version is clearly better
than mine, but again I don't know the state of that patch after Sam had
said he applied it already.

Here is what I have pending at the moment for set_fs() and
compat_alloc_user_space():

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/playground.git/log/?h=compat-alloc-user-space-2

The only one I have actually given up on is the atomisp staging driver,
which uses an awful hack, copying the x86 implementation of
copy_in_user()/compat_alloc_user_space() into the driver.

This is based on last week's linux-next, as I plan to resubmit after the
merge window.

That is gross.  Just mark the driver as broken for now.  Linus agreed
years ago that we don't need to work around staging drivers.  But
it would still be nice to ping the mainainers, as they often have
better ideas how to solve the problem.

Ah, it seems that Hans has already done that in commit 57e6b6f2303e
("media: atomisp_fops.c: disable atomisp_compat_ioctl32"), which
removes the only reference to this code. In this case, I think a one-line
change to stop building that file would be best, then if anyone ever
wants to fix the bug that Hans and Sakari found, they get to do also
deal with replacing compat_alloc_user_space().

I'll send a patch for that right away, the patch I have in my tree was
so evil that I hadn't dared submit that, but it was useful for
compile-testing the compat_alloc_user_space() removal patch.

I think the patches got applied to drm-misc-next *after* the final push
to -next for the current merge window.
So the patches are lingering in drm-misc-next waiting for the upcoming
merge window to comple before they are pushed to linux-next.
So for now the patches are only visible if one pulls drm-misc and checks
out drm-misc-next branch.

Pulling a fresh drm-misc tree just to be 100% sure .......

Yep, patches are there when I pull a fresh tree and mripard just
confirmed on irc that he sees them in his drm-misc-next repo.

I am working with git.freedesktop.org/git/drm/drm-misc.
