2019-04-09fs: mark expected switch fall-throughsGustavo A. R. Silva1-1/+1
In preparation to enabling -Wimplicit-fallthrough, mark switch cases where we are expecting to fall through.

2018-10-03signal: Distinguish between kernel_siginfo and siginfoEric W. Biederman1-1/+1
Linus recently observed that if we did not worry about the padding member in struct siginfo it is only about 48 bytes, and 48 bytes is much nicer than 128 bytes for allocating on the stack and copying around in the kernel. The obvious thing of only adding the padding when userspace is including siginfo.h won't work as there are sigframe definitions in the kernel that embed struct siginfo. So split siginfo in two; kernel_siginfo and siginfo. Keeping the traditional name for the userspace definition. While the version that is used internally to the kernel and ultimately will not be padded to 128 bytes is called kernel_siginfo. The definition of struct kernel_siginfo I have put in include/signal_types.h A set of buildtime checks has been added to verify the two structures have the same field offsets. To make it easy to verify the change kernel_siginfo retains the same size as siginfo. The reduction in size comes in a following change. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>
2018-08-16signal: Don't send signals to tasks that don't existEric W. Biederman1-2/+4
Recently syzbot reported crashes in send_sigio_to_task and send_sigurg_to_task in linux-next. Despite finding a reproducer syzbot apparently did not bisected this or otherwise track down the offending commit in linux-next. I happened to see this report and examined the code because I had recently changed these functions as part of making PIDTYPE_TGID a real pid type so that fork would does not need to restart when receiving a signal. By examination I see that I spotted a bug in the code that could explain the reported crashes. When I took Oleg's suggestion and optimized send_sigurg and send_sigio to only send to a single task when type is PIDTYPE_PID or PIDTYPE_TGID I failed to handle pids that no longer point to tasks. The macro do_each_pid_task simply iterates for zero iterations. With pid_task an explicit NULL test is needed. Update the code to include the missing NULL test.

2018-07-21signal: Use PIDTYPE_TGID to clearly store where file signals will be sentEric W. Biederman1-22/+32
When f_setown is called a pid and a pid type are stored. Replace the use of PIDTYPE_PID with PIDTYPE_TGID as PIDTYPE_TGID goes to the entire thread group. Replace the use of PIDTYPE_MAX with PIDTYPE_PID as PIDTYPE_PID now is only for a thread. Update the users of __f_setown to use PIDTYPE_TGID instead of PIDTYPE_PID. For now the code continues to capture task_pid (when task_tgid would really be appropriate), and iterate on PIDTYPE_PID (even when type == PIDTYPE_TGID) out of an abundance of caution to preserve existing behavior. Oleg Nesterov suggested using the test to ensure we use PIDTYPE_PID for tgid lookup also be used to avoid taking the tasklist lock.

2018-06-08mm: restructure memfd codeMike Kravetz1-1/+1
With the addition of memfd hugetlbfs support, we now have the situation where memfd depends on TMPFS -or- HUGETLBFS. Previously, memfd was only supported on tmpfs, so it made sense that the code resided in shmem.c. In the current code, memfd is only functional if TMPFS is defined. If HUGETLFS is defined and TMPFS is not defined, then memfd functionality will not be available for hugetlbfs. This does not cause BUGs, just a lack of potentially desired functionality. Code is restructured in the following way: - include/linux/memfd.h is a new file containing memfd specific definitions previously contained in shmem_fs.h. - mm/memfd.c is a new file containing memfd specific code previously contained in shmem.c. - memfd specific code is removed from shmem_fs.h and shmem.c. - A new config option MEMFD_CREATE is added that is defined if TMPFS or HUGETLBFS is defined. No functional changes are made to the code: restructuring only.

2018-05-01fasync: Fix deadlock between task-context and interrupt-context kill_fasync()Kirill Tkhai1-8/+7
I observed the following deadlock between them: [task 1] [task 2] [task 3] kill_fasync() mm_update_next_owner() copy_process() spin_lock_irqsave(&fa->fa_lock) read_lock(&tasklist_lock) write_lock_irq(&tasklist_lock) send_sigio() <IRQ> ... read_lock(&fown->lock) kill_fasync() ... read_lock(&tasklist_lock) spin_lock_irqsave(&fa->fa_lock) ... Task 1 can't acquire read locked tasklist_lock, since there is already task 3 expressed its wish to take the lock exclusive. Task 2 holds the read locked lock, but it can't take the spin lock. Also, there is possible another deadlock (which I haven't observed): [task 1] [task 2] f_getown() kill_fasync() read_lock(&f_own->lock) spin_lock_irqsave(&fa->fa_lock,) <IRQ> send_sigio() write_lock_irq(&f_own->lock) kill_fasync() read_lock(&fown->lock) spin_lock_irqsave(&fa->fa_lock,) Actually, we do not need exclusive fa->fa_lock in kill_fasync_rcu(), as it guarantees fa->fa_file->f_owner integrity only. It may seem, that it used to give a task a small possibility to receive two sequential signals, if there are two parallel kill_fasync() callers, and task handles the first signal fastly, but the behaviour won't become different, since there is exclusive sighand lock in do_send_sig_info(). The patch converts fa_lock into rwlock_t, and this fixes two above deadlocks, as rwlock is allowed to be taken from interrupt handler by qrwlock design.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs Pull poll annotations from Al Viro: "This introduces a __bitwise type for POLL### bitmap, and propagates the annotations through the tree. Most of that stuff is as simple as 'make ->poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local variables used to hold the future return value'. Some of the obvious brainos found in process are fixed (e.g. POLLIN misspelled as POLL_IN). At that point the amount of sparse warnings is low and most of them are for genuine bugs - e.g. ->poll() instance deciding to return -EINVAL instead of a bitmap. I hadn't touched those in this series - it's large enough as it is. Another problem it has caught was eventpoll() ABI mess; select.c and eventpoll.c assumed that corresponding POLL### and EPOLL### were equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are arch-independent, but POLL### are not. The last commit in this series separates userland POLL### values from the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them in the few places where they are copied to/from userland. AFAICS, this is the least disruptive fix preserving poll(2) ABI and making epoll() work on all architectures. As it is, it's simply broken on sparc - try to give it EPOLLWRNORM and it will trigger only on what would've triggered EPOLLWRBAND on other architectures.

2018-01-12signal: Ensure generic siginfos the kernel sends have all bits initializedEric W. Biederman1-0/+1
Call clear_siginfo to ensure stack allocated siginfos are fully initialized before being passed to the signal sending functions. This ensures that if there is the kind of confusion documented by TRAP_FIXME, FPE_FIXME, or BUS_FIXME the kernel won't send unitialized data to userspace when the kernel generates a signal with SI_USER but the copy to userspace assumes it is a different kind of signal, and different fields are initialized. This also prepares the way for turning copy_siginfo_to_user into a copy_to_user, by removing the need in many cases to perform a field by field copy simply to skip the uninitialized fields.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman1-0/+1
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the coccinelle script shown below and apply its output. For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in churn. However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write accessors must be used.

2017-07-24fcntl: Don't use ambiguous SIG_POLL si_codesEric W. Biederman1-1/+12
We have a weird and problematic intersection of features that when they all come together result in ambiguous siginfo values, that we can not support properly. - Supporting fcntl(F_SETSIG,...) with arbitrary valid signals. - Using positive values for POLL_IN, POLL_OUT, POLL_MSG, ..., etc that imply they are signal specific si_codes and using the aforementioned arbitrary signal to deliver them. - Supporting injection of arbitrary siginfo values for debugging and checkpoint/restore. The result is that just looking at siginfo si_codes of 1 to 6 are ambigious. It could either be a signal specific si_code or it could be a generic si_code. For most of the kernel this is a non-issue but for sending signals with siginfo it is impossible to play back the kernel signals and get the same result. Strictly speaking when the si_code was changed from SI_SIGIO to POLL_IN and friends between 2.2 and 2.4 this functionality was not ambiguous, as only real time signals were supported. Before 2.4 was released the kernel began supporting siginfo with non realtime signals so they could give details of why the signal was sent. The result is that if F_SETSIG is set to one of the signals with signal specific si_codes then user space can not know why the signal was sent. I grepped through a bunch of userspace programs using debian code search to get a feel for how often people choose a signal that results in an ambiguous si_code. I only found one program doing so and it was using SIGCHLD to test the F_SETSIG functionality, and did not appear to be a real world usage. Therefore the ambiguity does not appears to be a real world problem in practice. Remove the ambiguity while introducing the smallest chance of breakage by changing the si_code to SI_SIGIO when signals with signal specific si_codes are targeted.

2017-07-07vfs: fix flock compat thinkoLinus Torvalds1-15/+15
Michael Ellerman reported that commit 8c6657cb50cb ("Switch flock copyin/copyout primitives to copy_{from,to}_user()") broke his networking on a bunch of PPC machines (64-bit kernel, 32-bit userspace). The reason is a brown-paper bug by that commit, which had the arguments to "copy_flock_fields()" in the wrong order, breaking the compat handling for file locking. Apparently very few people run 32-bit user space on x86 any more, so the PPC people got the honor of noticing this "feature". Michael also sent a minimal diff that just changed the order of the arguments in that macro. This is not that minimal diff. This not only changes the order of the arguments in the macro, it also changes them to be pointers (to be consistent with all the other uses of those pointers), and makes the functions that do all of this also have the proper "const" attribution on the source pointers in order to make issues like that (using the source as a destination) be really obvious.

2017-06-27fs: add fcntl() interface for setting/getting write life time hintsJens Axboe1-0/+62
Define a set of write life time hints: RWH_WRITE_LIFE_NOT_SET No hint information set RWH_WRITE_LIFE_NONE No hints about write life time RWH_WRITE_LIFE_SHORT Data written has a short life time RWH_WRITE_LIFE_MEDIUM Data written has a medium life time RWH_WRITE_LIFE_LONG Data written has a long life time RWH_WRITE_LIFE_EXTREME Data written has an extremely long life time The intent is for these values to be relative to each other, no absolute meaning should be attached to these flag names. Add an fcntl interface for querying these flags, and also for setting them as well: F_GET_RW_HINT Returns the read/write hint set on the underlying inode. F_SET_RW_HINT Set one of the above write hints on the underlying inode. F_GET_FILE_RW_HINT Returns the read/write hint set on the file descriptor. F_SET_FILE_RW_HINT Set one of the above write hints on the file descriptor. The user passes in a 64-bit pointer to get/set these values, and the interface returns 0/-1 on success/error. Sample program testing/implementing basic setting/getting of write hints is below. Add support for storing the write life time hint in the inode flags and in struct file as well, and pass them to the kiocb flags. If both a file and its corresponding inode has a write hint, then we use the one in the file, if available. The file hint can be used for sync/direct IO, for buffered writeback only the inode hint is available. This is in preparation for utilizing these hints in the block layer, to guide on-media data placement. /* * writehint.c: get or set an inode write hint */ #include <stdio.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <stdbool.h> #include <inttypes.h> #ifndef F_GET_RW_HINT #define F_LINUX_SPECIFIC_BASE 1024 #define F_GET_RW_HINT (F_LINUX_SPECIFIC_BASE + 11) #define F_SET_RW_HINT (F_LINUX_SPECIFIC_BASE + 12) #endif static char *str[] = { "RWF_WRITE_LIFE_NOT_SET", "RWH_WRITE_LIFE_NONE", "RWH_WRITE_LIFE_SHORT", "RWH_WRITE_LIFE_MEDIUM", "RWH_WRITE_LIFE_LONG", "RWH_WRITE_LIFE_EXTREME" }; int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { uint64_t hint; int fd, ret; if (argc < 2) { fprintf(stderr, "%s: file <hint>\n", argv[0]); return 1; } fd = open(argv[1], O_RDONLY); if (fd < 0) { perror("open"); return 2; } if (argc > 2) { hint = atoi(argv[2]); ret = fcntl(fd, F_SET_RW_HINT, &hint); if (ret < 0) { perror("fcntl: F_SET_RW_HINT"); return 4; } } ret = fcntl(fd, F_GET_RW_HINT, &hint); if (ret < 0) { perror("fcntl: F_GET_RW_HINT"); return 3; } printf("%s: hint %s\n", argv[1], str[hint]); close(fd); return 0; } Reviewed-by: Martin K.

2014-08-09shm: add sealing APIDavid Herrmann1-0/+5
If two processes share a common memory region, they usually want some guarantees to allow safe access. This often includes: - one side cannot overwrite data while the other reads it - one side cannot shrink the buffer while the other accesses it - one side cannot grow the buffer beyond previously set boundaries If there is a trust-relationship between both parties, there is no need for policy enforcement. However, if there's no trust relationship (eg., for general-purpose IPC) sharing memory-regions is highly fragile and often not possible without local copies. Look at the following two use-cases: 1) A graphics client wants to share its rendering-buffer with a graphics-server. The memory-region is allocated by the client for read/write access and a second FD is passed to the server. While scanning out from the memory region, the server has no guarantee that the client doesn't shrink the buffer at any time, requiring rather cumbersome SIGBUS handling. 2) A process wants to perform an RPC on another process. To avoid huge bandwidth consumption, zero-copy is preferred. After a message is assembled in-memory and a FD is passed to the remote side, both sides want to be sure that neither modifies this shared copy, anymore. The source may have put sensible data into the message without a separate copy and the target may want to parse the message inline, to avoid a local copy. While SIGBUS handling, POSIX mandatory locking and MAP_DENYWRITE provide ways to achieve most of this, the first one is unproportionally ugly to use in libraries and the latter two are broken/racy or even disabled due to denial of service attacks. This patch introduces the concept of SEALING. If you seal a file, a specific set of operations is blocked on that file forever. Unlike locks, seals can only be set, never removed. Hence, once you verified a specific set of seals is set, you're guaranteed that no-one can perform the blocked operations on this file, anymore. An initial set of SEALS is introduced by this patch: - SHRINK: If SEAL_SHRINK is set, the file in question cannot be reduced in size. This affects ftruncate() and open(O_TRUNC). - GROW: If SEAL_GROW is set, the file in question cannot be increased in size. This affects ftruncate(), fallocate() and write(). - WRITE: If SEAL_WRITE is set, no write operations (besides resizing) are possible. This affects fallocate(PUNCH_HOLE), mmap() and write(). - SEAL: If SEAL_SEAL is set, no further seals can be added to a file. This basically prevents the F_ADD_SEAL operation on a file and can be set to prevent others from adding further seals that you don't want. The described use-cases can easily use these seals to provide safe use without any trust-relationship: 1) The graphics server can verify that a passed file-descriptor has SEAL_SHRINK set. This allows safe scanout, while the client is allowed to increase buffer size for window-resizing on-the-fly. Concurrent writes are explicitly allowed. 2) For general-purpose IPC, both processes can verify that SEAL_SHRINK, SEAL_GROW and SEAL_WRITE are set. This guarantees that neither process can modify the data while the other side parses it. Furthermore, it guarantees that even with writable FDs passed to the peer, it cannot increase the size to hit memory-limits of the source process (in case the file-storage is accounted to the source). The new API is an extension to fcntl(), adding two new commands: F_GET_SEALS: Return a bitset describing the seals on the file. This can be called on any FD if the underlying file supports sealing. F_ADD_SEALS: Change the seals of a given file. This requires WRITE access to the file and F_SEAL_SEAL may not already be set. Furthermore, the underlying file must support sealing and there may not be any existing shared mapping of that file. Otherwise, EBADF/EPERM is returned. The given seals are _added_ to the existing set of seals on the file. You cannot remove seals again. The fcntl() handler is currently specific to shmem and disabled on all files. A file needs to explicitly support sealing for this interface to work. A separate syscall is added in a follow-up, which creates files that support sealing. There is no intention to support this on other file-systems. Semantics are unclear for non-volatile files and we lack any use-case right now. Therefore, the implementation is specific to shmem.

2014-04-22locks: rename file-private locks to "open file description locks"Jeff Layton1-6/+6
File-private locks have been merged into Linux for v3.15, and *now* people are commenting that the name and macro definitions for the new file-private locks suck. ...and I can't even disagree. The names and command macros do suck. We're going to have to live with these for a long time, so it's important that we be happy with the names before we're stuck with them. The consensus on the lists so far is that they should be rechristened as "open file description locks". The name isn't a big deal for the kernel, but the command macros are not visually distinct enough from the traditional POSIX lock macros. The glibc and documentation folks are recommending that we change them to look like F_OFD_{GETLK|SETLK|SETLKW}. That lessens the chance that a programmer will typo one of the commands wrong, and also makes it easier to spot this difference when reading code. This patch makes the following changes that I think are necessary before v3.15 ships: 1) rename the command macros to their new names. These end up in the uapi headers and so are part of the external-facing API. It turns out that glibc doesn't actually use the fcntl.h uapi header, but it's hard to be sure that something else won't. Changing it now is safest. 2) make the the /proc/locks output display these as type "OFDLCK" Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org> Cc: Carlos O'Donell <carlos@redhat.com> Cc: Stefan Metzmacher <metze@samba.org> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net> Cc: Frank Filz <ffilzlnx@mindspring.com> Cc: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com>
2014-03-31locks: add new fcntl cmd values for handling file private locksJeff Layton1-11/+24
Due to some unfortunate history, POSIX locks have very strange and unhelpful semantics. The thing that usually catches people by surprise is that they are dropped whenever the process closes any file descriptor associated with the inode. This is extremely problematic for people developing file servers that need to implement byte-range locks. Developers often need a "lock management" facility to ensure that file descriptors are not closed until all of the locks associated with the inode are finished. Additionally, "classic" POSIX locks are owned by the process. Locks taken between threads within the same process won't conflict with one another, which renders them useless for synchronization between threads. This patchset adds a new type of lock that attempts to address these issues. These locks conflict with classic POSIX read/write locks, but have semantics that are more like BSD locks with respect to inheritance and behavior on close. This is implemented primarily by changing how fl_owner field is set for these locks. Instead of having them owned by the files_struct of the process, they are instead owned by the filp on which they were acquired. Thus, they are inherited across fork() and are only released when the last reference to a filp is put. These new semantics prevent them from being merged with classic POSIX locks, even if they are acquired by the same process. These locks will also conflict with classic POSIX locks even if they are acquired by the same process or on the same file descriptor. The new locks are managed using a new set of cmd values to the fcntl() syscall. The initial implementation of this converts these values to "classic" cmd values at a fairly high level, and the details are not exposed to the underlying filesystem. We may eventually want to push this handing out to the lower filesystem code but for now I don't see any need for it. Also, note that with this implementation the new cmd values are only available via fcntl64() on 32-bit arches. There's little need to add support for legacy apps on a new interface like this.
