      uml: runtime host VMSPLIT detection · 536788fe
      Jeff Dike 提交于
      Calculate TASK_SIZE at run-time by figuring out the host's VMSPLIT - this is
      needed on i386 if UML is to run on hosts with varying VMSPLITs without
      recompilation.
      
      TASK_SIZE is now defined in terms of a variable, task_size.  This gets rid of
      an include of pgtable.h from processor.h, which can cause include loops.
      
      On i386, task_size is calculated early in boot by probing the address space in
      a binary search to figure out where the boundary between usable and non-usable
      memory is.  This tries to make sure that a page that is considered to be in
      userspace is, or can be made, read-write.  I'm concerned about a system-global
      VDSO page in kernel memory being hit and considered to be a userspace page.
      
      On x86_64, task_size is just the old value of CONFIG_TOP_ADDR.
      
      A bunch of config variable are gone now.  CONFIG_TOP_ADDR is directly replaced
      by TASK_SIZE.  NEST_LEVEL is gone since the relocation of the stubs makes it
      irrelevant.  All the HOST_VMSPLIT stuff is gone.  All references to these in
      arch/um/Makefile are also gone.
      
      I noticed and fixed a missing extern in os.h when adding os_get_task_size.
      
      Note: This has been revised to fix the 32-bit UML on 64-bit host bug that
      Miklos ran into.

      uml: style fixes pass 1 · 4c9e1385
      Jeff Dike 提交于
      Formatting changes in the files which have been changed in the
      tt-removal patchset so far.  These include:
      	copyright updates
      	header file trimming
      	style fixes
      	adding severity to printks
      	indenting Kconfig help according to the predominant kernel style
      
      These changes should be entirely non-functional.

      uml: throw out CONFIG_MODE_TT · 42fda663
      Jeff Dike 提交于
      This patchset throws out tt mode, which has been non-functional for a while.
      
      This is done in phases, interspersed with code cleanups on the affected files.
      
      The removal is done as follows:
      	remove all code, config options, and files which depend on
      CONFIG_MODE_TT
      	get rid of the CHOOSE_MODE macro, which decided whether to
      call tt-mode or skas-mode code, and replace invocations with their
      skas portions
      	replace all now-trivial procedures with their skas equivalents
      
      There are now a bunch of now-redundant pieces of data structures, including
      mode-specific pieces of the thread structure, pt_regs, and mm_context.  These
      are all replaced with their skas-specific contents.
      
      As part of the ongoing style compliance project, I made a style pass over all
      files that were changed.  There are three such patches, one for each phase,
      covering the files affected by that phase but no later ones.
      
      I noticed that we weren't freeing the LDT state associated with a process when
      it exited, so that's fixed in one of the later patches.
      
      The last patch is a tidying patch which I've had for a while, but which caused
      inexplicable crashes under tt mode.  Since that is no longer a problem, this
      can now go in.
      
      This patch:
      
      Start getting rid of tt mode support.
      
      This patch throws out CONFIG_MODE_TT and all config options, code, and files
      which depend on it.
      
      CONFIG_MODE_SKAS is gone and everything that depends on it is included
      unconditionally.
      
      The few changed lines are in re-written Kconfig help, lines which needed
      something skas-related removed from them, and a few more which weren't
      strictly deletions.

      [PATCH] uml: Move signal handlers to arch code · 4b84c69b
      Jeff Dike 提交于
      Have most signals go through an arch-provided handler which recovers the
      sigcontext and then calls a generic handler.  This replaces the
      ARCH_GET_SIGCONTEXT macro, which was somewhat fragile.  On x86_64, recovering
      %rdx (which holds the sigcontext pointer) must be the first thing that
      happens.  sig_handler duly invokes that first, but there is no guarantee that
      I can see that instructions won't be reordered such that %rdx is used before
      that.  Having the arch provide the handler seems much more robust.
      
      Some signals in some parts of UML require their own handlers - these places
      don't call set_handler any more.  They call sigaction or signal themselves.

      Linux-2.6.12-rc2 · 1da177e4
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      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!
