unify {de,}mangle_poll(), get rid of kernel-side POLL...

2018-02-11T22:37:22Z

except, again, POLLFREE and POLL_BUSY_LOOP. With this, we finally get to the promised end result: - POLL{IN,OUT,...} are plain integers and *not* in __poll_t, so any stray instances of ->poll() still using those will be caught by sparse. - eventpoll.c and select.c warning-free wrt __poll_t - no more kernel-side definitions of POLL... - userland ones are visible through the entire kernel (and used pretty much only for mangle/demangle) - same behavior as after the first series (i.e. sparc et.al. epoll(2) working correctly).

After that, the kernel is ready to apply the patch to unify {de,}mangle_poll(), and then get rid of kernel-side POLL... uses entirely, and we should be all done with that stuff. Basically, that's what you suggested wrt KPOLL..., except that we can use EPOLL... instead - they already are arch-independent (and equal to what is currently kernel-side POLL...). After the preparations (in this series) switch to returning EPOLL... from ->poll() instances is completely mechanical and kernel-side POLL... can go away. The last step (killing kernel-side POLL... and unifying {de,}mangle_poll() has to be done after the search-and-replace job, since we need userland-side POLL... for unified {de,}mangle_poll(), thus the cherry-pick at the last step. After that we will have: - POLL{IN,OUT,...} *not* in __poll_t, so any stray instances of ->poll() still using those will be caught by sparse. - eventpoll.c and select.c warning-free wrt __poll_t - no more kernel-side definitions of POLL... - userland ones are visible through the entire kernel (and used pretty much only for mangle/demangle) - same behavior as after the first series (i.e. sparc et.al. epoll(2) working correctly)" * 'work.poll2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: annotate ep_scan_ready_list() ep_send_events_proc(): return result via esed->res preparation to switching ->poll() to returning EPOLL... add EPOLLNVAL, annotate EPOLL... and event_poll->event use linux/poll.h instead of asm/poll.h xen: fix poll misannotation smc: missing poll annotations
