[PATCH] uml: maintain own LDT entries
Patch imlements full LDT handling in SKAS: * UML holds it's own LDT table, used to deliver data on modify_ldt(READ) * UML disables the default_ldt, inherited from the host (SKAS3) or resets LDT entries, set by host's clib and inherited in SKAS0 * A new global variable skas_needs_stub is inserted, that can be used to decide, whether stub-pages must be supported or not. * Uses the syscall-stub to replace missing PTRACE_LDT (therefore, write_ldt_entry needs to be modified) Signed-off-by: Bodo Stroesser <bstroesser@fujitsu-siemens.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Dike <jdike@addtoit.com> Cc: Paolo Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
