Subject: testing a new syscall
Date: Mon, 22 Mar 2004 10:15:55 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040322021555.7b6f9317.akpm@osdl.org> (raw)
I'm trying to work out how to test the new remap_file_pages() syscall on
ia64 and have conceded defeat.
I got this far, but it segfaults:
#elif __ia64__
#define __NR_sys_remap_file_pages 1259
...
_syscall5(long, sys_remap_file_pages, unsigned long, start, unsigned long, len,
unsigned long, prot, unsigned long, pgoff, int, flags);
....
#if defined(__ia64__)
asm(
" .text\n"
" .global __ia64_syscall#;\n"
" .align 32;\n"
" .proc __ia64_syscall#;\n"
"__ia64_syscall#:\n"
" .regstk 6,0,0,0\n"
" mov r15=in5\n"
" break 0x100000\n"
" movl r2=errno\n"
" cmp.eq p6,p7=-1,r10\n"
" ;;\n"
"(p6) st4 [r2]=r8\n"
"(p6) mov r8=-1\n"
" br.ret.sptk.many rp\n"
" .endp __ia64_syscall#\n"
);
#endif
What's the magic here?
Thanks.
