Call arch_switch also in switch_to_skas, even if it's, for now, a no-op for that case (and mark this in the comment); this will change soon. Also, arch_switch for TT mode is actually useless when the PT proxy (a complicate debugging instrumentation for TT mode) is not enabled. In fact, it only calls update_debugregs, which checks debugregs_seq against seq (to check if the registers are up-to-date - seq here means a "version number" of the registers). If the ptrace proxy is not enabled, debugregs_seq always stays 0 and update_debugregs will be a no-op. So, optimize this out (the compiler can't do it). Also, I've been disappointed by the fact that it would make a lot of sense if, after calling a successful update_debugregs(current->thread.arch.debugregs_seq), current->thread.arch.debugregs_seq were updated with the new debugregs_seq. But this is not done. Is this a bug or a feature? For all purposes, it seems a bug (otherwise the whole mechanism does not make sense, which is also a possibility to check), which causes some performance only problems (not correctness), since we write_debugregs when not needed. Also, as suggested by Jeff, remove a redundant enabling of SIGVTALRM, comprised in the subsequent local_irq_enable(). I'm just a bit dubious if ordering matters there...

For security reasons, UML in is_syscall() needs to have access to code in vsyscall-page. The current implementation grants this access by explicitly allowing access to vsyscall in access_ok_skas(). With this change, copy_from_user() may be used to read the code. Ptrace access to vsyscall-page for debugging already was implemented in get_user_pages() by mainline. In i386, copy_from_user can't access vsyscall-page, but returns EFAULT. To make UML behave as i386 does, I changed is_syscall to use access_process_vm(current) to read the code from vsyscall-page. This doesn't hurt security, but simplifies the code and prepares implementation of stub-vmas.

s390 needs to change some parts of arch/um/kernel/ptrace.c. Thus, the code regarding PEEKUSER and POKEUSER are shifted to arch/um/sys-<subarch>/ptrace.c. Also s390 debug registers need to be updated, when singlestepping is switched on / off. Thus, setting/resetting of singlestepping is centralized in the new function set_singlestep(), which also inserts the macro SUBARCH_SET_SINGLESTEP(mode), if defined. Finally, s390 has the "ieee_instruction_pointer" in its registers, which also is allowed to be read via ptrace( PTRACE_PEEKUSER, getpid(), PT_IEEE_IP, 0); To implement this feature, sys_ptrace inserts the macro SUBARCH_PTRACE_SPECIAL, if defined.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
