This patch consolidates the semtimedop Linux implementation in only one default file, sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/semtimedop.c. If tries to use the direct syscall if it is supported, otherwise will use the old ipc multiplex mechanism. Checked on x86_64, i686, powerpc64le, aarch64, and armhf. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/syscalls.list (semtimedop): Remove. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/syscalls.list (semtimedop): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/generic/syscalls.list (semtimedop): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/hppa/syscalls.list (semtimedop): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ia64/syscalls.list (semtimedop): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/microblaze/syscalls.list (semtimedop): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips64/syscalls.list (semtimedop): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/syscalls.list (semtimedop): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/m68k/semtimedop.S: Remove file. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/s390/semtimedop.c: Reorganize headers and add a comment about s390 syscall difference from default one. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/semtimedop.c (semtimedop): Use semtimedop syscall if it is defined.
This hierarchy supports Linux systems using the new asm-generic/unistd.h, which removes many familiar old syscalls. For example, to implement open(), newer Linux architectures require glibc to invoke the __NR_openat syscall with AT_FDCWD. This hierarchy provides all those implementations. It also provides support for 32-bit platforms using the 64-bit kernel syscall APIs, as the 32-bit ones are no longer provided. Note that newer ILP32 environments (x32 or AArch64:ILP32, for example) are converting to use more 64-bit types in kernel syscalls, so that aspect of this support is in more flux as of this writing.
