Currently 32 bit application gets ENOTTY when it calls compat_ioctl with NVME_IOCTL_SUBMIT_IO in 64 bit kernel. The cause is that the results of sizeof(struct nvme_user_io), which is used to define NVME_IOCTL_SUBMIT_IO, are not same between 32 bit compiler and 64 bit compiler. * 32 bit: the result of sizeof nvme_user_io is 44. * 64 bit: the result of sizeof nvme_user_io is 48. 64 bit compiler seems to add 32 bit padding for multiple of 8 bytes. This patch adds a compat_ioctl handler. The handler replaces NVME_IOCTL_SUBMIT_IO32 with NVME_IOCTL_SUBMIT_IO in case 32 bit application calls compat_ioctl for submit in 64 bit kernel. Then, it calls nvme_ioctl as usual. Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada (KIOXIA) <masahiro31.yamada@kioxia.com> Signed-off-by: Keith Busch <kbusch@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
