A while ago Arnd made it possible to give new system calls the same
syscall number on all architectures (except alpha). To not break this
nice new feature let's mark 435 for clone3 as reserved on all
architectures that do not yet implement it.
Even if an architecture does not plan to implement it this ensures that
new system calls coming after clone3 will have the same number on all
architectures.

I think Vasily already has a clone3 patch for s390x with 435.

Excellent. I'll leave the # 435 reserved for clone3 on s390x in until
this patch has landed. It shouldn't be a merge conflict and if so it
should be trivial.

A quick follow-up on this. Helge and Michael have asked whether there
are any tests for clone3. Yes, there will be and I try to have them
ready by the end of the this or next week for review. In the meantime I
hope the following minimalistic test program that just verifies very
very basic functionality (It's not pretty.) will help you test:

I think I already responded to Helge before and yes, I think that parisc
doesn't do anything special for fork, vfork, clone, and by extension
also probably doesn't need to for clone3.
It should only be a problem for arches that require mucking explicitly
with arguments of clone-like syscalls.
In any case, I saw Helge's patch and I think I might've missed to add an
Acked-by but feel free to add it.
Thanks for testing it and sorry that I couldn't test!

On PA-RISC this seems to work fine with Helge's patch to wire up the
clone3 syscall.

Parent process received child's pid 84 as return value

Thanks!
I've added the patch to the parisc-linux for-next tree.

Hi Christian,
Thanks for the test.
This actually oopses on powerpc, it hits the BUG_ON in CHECK_FULL_REGS
in process.c around line 1633:
} else {
/* user thread */
struct pt_regs *regs = current_pt_regs();
CHECK_FULL_REGS(regs);
*childregs = *regs;
if (usp)
So I'll have to dig into how we fix that before we wire up clone3.
Turns out testing is good! :)
cheers

Indeed. I have a test-suite for clone3 in mind and I hope to have it
ready by the end of next week. It's just always the finding the time
part that is annoying. :)
Thanks for digging into this, Michael!

I know the feeling!

No worries, happy to help where I can.
In the intervening five minutes I remembered how we handle this, we just
need a little wrapper to save the non-volatile regs:
_GLOBAL(ppc_clone3)
bl save_nvgprs
bl sys_clone3
b .Lsyscall_exit
A while back I meant to make it generate those automatically based on a
flag in the syscall.tbl but of course haven't got around to it :)
So with the above it seems all good:
$ ./clone3 ; echo $?
Parent process received child's pid 4204 as return value
Parent process received child's pidfd 3
Parent process received child's pid 4204 as return argument
Child process with pid 4204
0
I'll send a patch to wire it up on Monday.
cheers
