Subject: [RFC] syscalls-by-name (aka dynamic syscalls / vsyscalls)
Date: Thu, 17 Jan 2002 17:19:30 -0500
The attached patch implements syscalls-by-name in an initial and
rather crud method -- the x86isms need tidying up, but the technique
is usable across platforms. Syscalls provided by name are made
available to userland by means of a dynamic shared library that
maps and provides a jumptable into a set of vsyscalls. The vsyscalls
can then enter the kernel through whatever mechanism (the only means
implemented right now is via a new syscall, sys_dynamic_syscall) the
kernel choses. Version mismatch between the kernel and the library
is prevented by means of a unique fingerprint the library checks on
load against what the kernel provides via /dev/vsys.
/dev/vsys is a simple device node that allows user code to map the
vsyscall area into their address space. This is different from the
fixed address that x86-64 uses to allow UML emulation of vsyscalls,
and prevent other problems that could crop up with the intrusion of
unexpected code into user address space.
For a quick example on how a new syscall is declared, I added the following
lines into fs/aio.c in the aio patch:
#include <asm/vsyscall.h>
... rest of file ...
add_dynamic_syscall(sys_io_setup);
add_dynamic_syscall(sys_io_destroy);
add_dynamic_syscall(sys_io_submit);
add_dynamic_syscall(sys_io_cancel);
add_dynamic_syscall(sys_io_wait);
add_dynamic_syscall(sys_io_getevents);
Similarly, vsyscalls can be added by means of adding an attribute to a
function declaration that puts the code into the VSYSCALL segment. This
segment is linked at a virtual address just above the top of the default
user stack, but is kept within the kernel image and mapped via /dev/vsys.
My current todos on the code are to clean it up so that the arch specific
parts are better seperated, add symbol versions, and resurrect the
sysenter / sysexit code as the means of entering the dynamic syscalls.
There's also TSC based gettimeofday() code to finish off and add...
The patch is against 2.4.9-acsomething + aio + stuff, but should be pretty
easy to merge into recent kernels. If anyone has any comments or tweaks,
I'd like to hear about them. Cheers,
-ben
