2008-01-30x86: x86 user_regset TLSRoland McGrath
This adds accessor functions in the user_regset style for the TLS data. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: x86 TLS desc_struct cleanupRoland McGrath
This cleans up the TLS code to use struct desc_struct and to separate the encoding and installation magic from the interface wrappers. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: modify get_desc_baseGlauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch makes get_desc_base() receive a struct desc_struct, and then uses its internal fields to compute the base address. This is done at both i386 and x86_64, and then it is moved to common header Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: introduce fill_ldtGlauber de Oliveira Costa
This patch introduces fill_ldt(), which populates a ldt descriptor from a user_desc in once, instead of relying in the LDT_entry_a and LDT_entry_b macros Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-01-30x86: TLS cleanupRoland McGrath
This consolidates the four different places that implemented the same encoding magic for the GDT-slot 32-bit TLS support. The old tls32.c was renamed and is now only slightly modified to be the shared implementation.

2008-01-30x86: tls32 movedRoland McGrath
This renames arch/x86/ia32/tls32.c to arch/x86/kernel/tls.c, which does nothing now but paves the way to consolidate this code for 32-bit too.
