From 9d85cba718efeef9ca00ce3f7f34f5880737aa9b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff Moyer Date: Wed, 26 May 2010 14:44:26 -0700 Subject: aio: fix the compat vectored operations The aio compat code was not converting the struct iovecs from 32bit to 64bit pointers, causing either EINVAL to be returned from io_getevents, or EFAULT as the result of the I/O. This patch passes a compat flag to io_submit to signal that pointer conversion is necessary for a given iocb array. A variant of this was tested by Michael Tokarev. I have also updated the libaio test harness to exercise this code path with good success. Further, I grabbed a copy of ltp and ran the testcases/kernel/syscall/readv and writev tests there (compiled with -m32 on my 64bit system). All seems happy, but extra eyes on this would be welcome.
