From 4923954bbc4a760e0b2210e0cb5733726ac2e2e9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "peterz@infradead.org" Date: Thu, 21 Sep 2023 12:45:06 +0200 Subject: futex: Clarify FUTEX2 flags MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit sys_futex_waitv() is part of the futex2 series (the first and only so far) of syscalls and has a flags field per futex (as opposed to flags being encoded in the futex op). This new flags field has a new namespace, which unfortunately isn't super explicit. Notably it currently takes FUTEX_32 and FUTEX_PRIVATE_FLAG. Introduce the FUTEX2 namespace to clarify this Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Reviewed-by: André Almeida Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230921105247.507327749@noisy.programming.kicks-ass.net --- include/uapi/linux/futex.h | 16 +++++++++++++--- 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) (limited to 'include/uapi/linux') diff --git a/include/uapi/linux/futex.h b/include/uapi/linux/futex.h index 71a5df8d2689..21d4eff41162 100644 --- a/include/uapi/linux/futex.h +++ b/include/uapi/linux/futex.h @@ -44,10 +44,20 @@ FUTEX_PRIVATE_FLAG) /* - * Flags to specify the bit length of the futex word for futex2 syscalls. - * Currently, only 32 is supported. + * Flags for futex2 syscalls. */ -#define FUTEX_32 2 + /* 0x00 */ + /* 0x01 */ +#define FUTEX2_SIZE_U32 0x02 + /* 0x04 */ + /* 0x08 */ + /* 0x10 */ + /* 0x20 */ + /* 0x40 */ +#define FUTEX2_PRIVATE FUTEX_PRIVATE_FLAG + +/* do not use */ +#define FUTEX_32 FUTEX2_SIZE_U32 /* historical accident :-( */ /* * Max numbers of elements in a futex_waitv array -- cgit v1.2.3
