The XSTAT_IS_XSTAT64 and STAT_IS_KERNEL_STAT flags are now set to 1 and STATFS_IS_STATFS64 is set to __STATFS_MATCHES_STATFS64. This makes the default ABI for newer ports to provide only LFS calls. A copy of non-LFS support is provided to 32-bit ABIS with non-LFS support (arm, csky, i386, m68k, nios2, s390, and sh). Is also allows to remove the 64-bit ports, which already uses the default values. This patch does not change the code generation. Reviewed-by: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com>
This hierarchy supports Linux systems using the new asm-generic/unistd.h, which removes many familiar old syscalls. For example, to implement open(), newer Linux architectures require glibc to invoke the __NR_openat syscall with AT_FDCWD. This hierarchy provides all those implementations. It also provides support for 32-bit platforms using the 64-bit kernel syscall APIs, as the 32-bit ones are no longer provided. Note that newer ILP32 environments (x32 or AArch64:ILP32, for example) are converting to use more 64-bit types in kernel syscalls, so that aspect of this support is in more flux as of this writing.
