2006-04-19[PATCH] uml: physical memory map file fixesRob Landley
UML really wants shared memory semantics form its physical memory map file, and the place for that is /dev/shm. So move the default, and fix the error messages to recognize that this value can be overridden.

Clean up the jmpbuf code. Since softints, we no longer use sig_setjmp, so the UML_SIGSETJMP wrapper now has a misleading name. Also, I forgot to change the buffers from sigjmp_buf to jmp_buf.

2006-04-19[PATCH] uml: MADV_REMOVE fixesJeff Dike
MADV_REMOVE fixes - change the test mapping to be MAP_SHARED instead of MAP_PRIVATE, as MADV_REMOVE on MAP_PRIVATE maps won't work. Also, use the kernel's definition of MADV_REMOVE instead of hardcoding it if there isn't a libc definition.

Switch this proc from storing 4k of data (a whole path) on the stack to keeping it on the heap. Maybe it's not called in process context but only in early boot context (where in UML you have a normal process stack on the host) but just to be safe, fix it.

2006-04-11[PATCH] uml: fix failure path after conversionPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
Little fix for error paths in this code. - Some bug come from conversion to os-Linux (open() doesn't follow the kernel -errno return convention, while the old code called os_open_file() which followed it). This caused the wrong return code to be printed. - Then be more precise about what happened and do some whitespace fixes.

If running on a host not supporting TLS (for instance 2.4) we should report that cleanly to the user, instead of printing not comprehensible "error 5" for that. Additionally, i386 and x86_64 support different ranges for user_desc->entry_number, and we must account for that; we couldn't pass ourselves -1 because we need to override previously existing TLS descriptors which glibc has possibly set, so test at startup the range to use. x86 and x86_64 existing ranges are hardcoded.

2006-03-31[PATCH] uml: implement {get,set}_thread_area for i386Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
Implement sys_[gs]et_thread_area and the corresponding ptrace operations for UML. This is the main chunk, additional parts follow. This implementation is now well tested and has run reliably for some time, and we've understood all the previously existing problems. Their implementation saves the new GDT content and then forwards the call to the host when appropriate, i.e. immediately when the target process is running or on context switch otherwise (i.e. on fork and on ptrace() calls). In SKAS mode, we must switch registers on each context switch (because SKAS does not switches tls_array together with current->mm). Also, added get_cpu() locking; this has been done for SKAS mode, since TT does not need it (it does not use smp_processor_id()).

2006-03-31[PATCH] UML: Hotplug memory, take 2Jeff Dike
Changes since first version added check for MADV_REMOVE support on the host fixed error return botch shrunk sprintf array by one character This adds hotplug memory support to UML. The mconsole syntax is config mem=[+-]n[KMG] In other words, add or subtract some number of kilobytes, megabytes, or gigabytes. Unplugged pages are allocated and then madvise(MADV_TRUNCATE), which is a currently experimental madvise extension. These pages are tracked so they can be plugged back in later if the admin decides to give them back. The first page to be unplugged is used to keep track of about 4M of other pages. A list_head is the first thing on this page. The rest is filled with addresses of other unplugged pages. This first page is not madvised, obviously. When this page is filled, the next page is used in a similar way and linked onto a list with the first page. Etc. This whole process reverses when pages are plugged back in. When a tracking page no longer tracks any unplugged pages, then it is next in line for plugging, which is done by freeing pages back to the kernel.

2006-01-18[PATCH] uml: implement soft interruptsJeff Dike
This patch implements soft interrupts. Interrupt enabling and disabling no longer map to sigprocmask. Rather, a flag is set indicating whether interrupts may be handled. If a signal comes in and interrupts are marked as OK, then it is handled normally. If interrupts are marked as off, then the signal handler simply returns after noting that a signal needs handling. When interrupts are enabled later on, this pending signals flag is checked, and the IRQ handlers are called at that point. The point of this is to reduce the cost of local_irq_save et al, since they are very much more common than the signals that they are enabling and disabling. Soft interrupts produce a speed-up of ~25% on a kernel build. Subtleties - UML uses sigsetjmp/siglongjmp to switch contexts. sigsetjmp has been wrapped in a save_flags-like macro which remembers the interrupt state at setjmp time, and restores it when it is longjmp-ed back to. The enable_signals function has to loop because the IRQ handler disables interrupts before returning. enable_signals has to return with signals enabled, and signals may come in between the disabling and the return to enable_signals. So, it loops for as long as there are pending signals, ensuring that signals are enabled when it finally returns, and that there are no pending signals that need to be dealt with.

This patch cleans up the umid code: - The only_if_set argument to get_umid is gone. - get_umid returns an empty string rather than NULL if there is no umid. - umid_is_random is gone since its users went away. - Some printfs were turned into printks because the code runs late enough that printk is working. - Error paths were cleaned up. - Some functions now return an error and let the caller print the error message rather than printing it themselves. This eliminates the practice of passing a pointer to printf or printk in, depending on where in the boot process we are. - Major tidying of not_dead_yet - mostly error path cleanup, plus a comment explaining why it doesn't react to errors the way you might expect. - Calls to os_* interfaces that were moved under os are changed back to their native libc forms. - snprintf, strlcpy, and their bounds-checking friends are used more often, replacing by-hand bounds checking in some places.

2005-12-29[PATCH] uml: fix random segfaults at bootupPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
Don't use printk() where "current_thread_info()" is crap. Until when we switch to running on init_stack, current_thread_info() evaluates to crap. Printk uses "current" at times (in detail, &current is evaluated with CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK to check the spinlock owner task). And this leads to random segmentation faults. Exactly, what happens is that &current = *(current_thread_info()), i.e. round down $esp and dereference the value. I.e. access the stack below $esp, which causes SIGSEGV on a VM_GROWSDOWN vma (see arch/i386/mm/fault.c).

2005-11-07[PATCH] uml: big memory fixesJeff Dike
A number of fixes to improve behavior when large physical memory sizes are specified: - libc files need -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 because there are unavoidable uses of non-64 interfaces in libc - some %d need to be %u 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>
2005-11-07[PATCH] uml: maintain own LDT entriesBodo Stroesser
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>
