Subject: [PATCH v4 0/5] Add a new fchmodat2() syscall
Date:   Tue, 11 Jul 2023 18:16:02 +0200
Message-Id: <cover.1689092120.git.legion@kernel.org>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1689074739.git.legion@kernel.org>

In glibc, the fchmodat(3) function has a flags argument according to the
POSIX specification [1], but kernel syscalls has no such argument.
Therefore, libc implementations do workarounds using /proc. However,
this requires procfs to be mounted and accessible.

This patch set adds fchmodat2(), a new syscall. The syscall allows to
pass the AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW flag to disable LOOKUP_FOLLOW. In all other
respects, this syscall is no different from fchmodat().

[1] https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/chmod.html

Changes since v3 [cover.1689074739.git.legion@kernel.org]:

* Rebased to master because a new syscall has appeared in master.
* Increased __NR_compat_syscalls as pointed out by Arnd Bergmann.
* Syscall renamed fchmodat4 -> fchmodat2 as suggested by Christian Brauner.
* Returned do_fchmodat4() the original name. We don't need to version
  internal functions.
* Fixed warnings found by checkpatch.pl.

Changes since v2 [20190717012719.5524-1-palmer@sifive.com]:

* Rebased to master.
* The lookup_flags passed to sys_fchmodat4 as suggested by Al Viro.
* Selftest added.

Changes since v1 [20190531191204.4044-1-palmer@sifive.com]:

* All architectures are now supported, which support squashed into a
  single patch.
* The do_fchmodat() helper function has been removed, in favor of directly
  calling do_fchmodat4().
* The patches are based on 5.2 instead of 5.1.
