Merge patch series "nios2: Add architecture support for clone3"
Simon Schuster <schuster.simon@siemens-energy.com> says:
This series adds support for the clone3 system call to the nios2
architecture. This addresses the build-time warning "warning: clone3()
entry point is missing, please fix" introduced in 505d66d1abfb9
("clone3: drop __ARCH_WANT_SYS_CLONE3 macro"). The implementation passes
the relevant clone3 tests of kselftest when applied on top of
next-20250815:
./run_kselftest.sh
TAP version 13
1..4
# selftests: clone3: clone3
ok 1 selftests: clone3: clone3
# selftests: clone3: clone3_clear_sighand
ok 2 selftests: clone3: clone3_clear_sighand
# selftests: clone3: clone3_set_tid
ok 3 selftests: clone3: clone3_set_tid
# selftests: clone3: clone3_cap_checkpoint_restore
ok 4 selftests: clone3: clone3_cap_checkpoint_restore
The series also includes a small patch to kernel/fork.c that ensures
that clone_flags are passed correctly on architectures where unsigned
long is insufficient to store the u64 clone_flags. It is marked as a fix
for stable backporting.
As requested, in v2, this series now further tries to correct this type
error throughout the whole code base. Thus, it now touches a larger
number of subsystems and all architectures.
Therefore, another test was performed for ARCH=x86_64 (as a
representative for 64-bit architectures). Here, the series builds cleanly
without warnings on defconfig with CONFIG_SECURITY_APPARMOR=y and
CONFIG_SECURITY_TOMOYO=y (to compile-check the LSM-related changes).
The build further successfully passes testing/selftests/clone3 (with the
patch from 20241105062948.1037011-1-zhouyuhang1010@163.com to prepare
clone3_cap_checkpoint_restore for compatibility with the newer libcap
version on my system).
