The declaration of struct ib_user_mad_reg_req.method_mask[] exported
to userspace was an array of __u32, but the kernel internally treated
it as a bitmap made up of longs. This makes a difference for 64-bit
big-endian kernels, where numbering the bits in an array of__u32 gives:
|31.....0|63....31|95....64|127...96|
while numbering the bits in an array of longs gives:
|63..............0|127............64|
64-bit userspace can handle this by just treating method_mask[] as an
array of longs, but 32-bit userspace is really stuck: the meaning of
the bits in method_mask[] depends on whether the kernel is 32-bit or
64-bit, and there's no sane way for userspace to know that.
Fix this by updating <rdma/ib_user_mad.h> to make it clear that
method_mask[] is an array of longs, and using a compat_ioctl method to
convert to an array of 64-bit longs to handle the 32-on-64 problem.
This fixes the interface description to match existing behavior (so
working binaries continue to work) in almost all situations, and gives
consistent semantics in the case of 32-bit userspace that can run on
either a 32-bit or 64-bit kernel, so that the same binary can work for
both 32-on-32 and 32-on-64 systems.
