Hi,
In current 2.6.23 (I have checked 2.6.23.12 and 2.6.23.9) the end of
include/asm-powerpc/systbl.h reads:
--snip--
SYSCALL_SPU(getcpu)
COMPAT_SYS(epoll_pwait)
COMPAT_SYS_SPU(utimensat)
COMPAT_SYS(fallocate)
COMPAT_SYS_SPU(signalfd)
COMPAT_SYS_SPU(timerfd)
SYSCALL_SPU(eventfd)
COMPAT_SYS_SPU(sync_file_range2)
--snap--
This obviously does not match the definitions in asm-powerpc/unistd.h:
--snip--
#define __NR_getcpu 302
#define __NR_epoll_pwait 303
#define __NR_utimensat 304
#define __NR_signalfd 305
#define __NR_timerfd 306
#define __NR_eventfd 307
#define __NR_sync_file_range2 308
#define __NR_fallocate 309
--snap--
which breaks the system calls 305 to 309 inclusive.
I've attached the simple patch which fixes the problem.
yours,

Hi Clifford,
Thanks for the report.
PowerPC problems should be reported to [email protected].
This has been fixed in the current (approaching 2.6.24) kernel. It
should be fixed in 2.6.23.xx, so I have cc'd this to
[email protected] (and linuxppc-dev, of course).
(Also, please post patches inline, don't attach them. And you need to
reply to this with a Signed-off-by: line.)

Cheers,

Should have been [email protected]. (where I have sent another copy of
the email)
