For the places where we need a pointer to the mac header, it is still legal to touch skb->mac.raw directly if just adding to, subtracting from or setting it to another layer header.

Currently we have a confused udelay implementation. * __const_udelay does not accept usecs but xloops in i386 and x86_64 * our implementation requires usecs as arg * it gets a xloops count when called by asm/arch/delay.h Bugs related to this (extremely long shutdown times) where reported by some x86_64 users, especially using Device Mapper. To hit this bug, a compile-time constant time parameter must be passed - that's why UML seems to work most times. Fix this with a simple udelay implementation.

Permit lvm to create logical volumes without crashing UML. When device-mapper's DM_DEV_CREATE_CMD ioctl is called to create a new device, dev_create()->dm_create()->alloc_dev()-> blk_queue_bounce_limit(md->queue, BLK_BOUNCE_ANY) is called. blk_queue_bounce_limit(BLK_BOUNCE_ANY) calls init_emergency_isa_pool() if blk_max_pfn < blk_max_low_pfn. This is the case on UML, but init_emergency_isa_pool() hits BUG_ON(!isa_page_pool) because there doesn't seem to be a dma zone on UML for mempool_create() to allocate from. Most architectures seem to have max_low_pfn == max_pfn, but UML doesn't because of the uml_reserved chunk it keeps for itself. From what I can see, max_pfn and max_low_pfn don't get much use after the bootmem-allocator stops being used anyway, except that they initialize the block layer's blk_max_low_pfn/blk_max_pfn. This ensures init_emergency_isa_pool() doesn't crash uml in this situation by setting max_low_pfn == max_pfn in mem_init().

As the comment immediately preceding this points out, this list is changed in irq context, so it needs to be protected with spin_lock_irqsave in process context when it is processed.

Commit 62f96cb0 introduced per-devices queues and locks, which was fine as far as it went, but left in place a global which controlled access to submitting requests to the host. This should have been made per-device as well, since it causes I/O hangs when multiple block devices are in use. This patch fixes that by replacing the global with an activity flag in the device structure in order to tell whether the queue is currently being run.

This patch uses MAX_REG_NR consistently to refer to the register file size. FRAME_SIZE isn't sufficient because on x86_64, it is smaller than the ptrace register file size. MAX_REG_NR was introduced as a consistent way to get the number of registers, but wasn't used everywhere it should be. When this causes a problem, it makes PTRACE_SETREGS fail on x86_64 because of a corrupted segment register value in the known-good register file. The patch also adds a register dump at that point in case there are any future problems here.

In my previous x86_64 thread fix, I forgot to initialize thread.arch.fs in arch_prctl. A process calling arch_prctl to set %fs would lose it on the next context switch. It also turns out that you can switch to a process which is in the process of exiting and which has lost its mm. In this case, it's worse than useless to try to call arch_prctl on the host process.

This fixes a problem seen by a number of people running UML on newer host kernels. init would hang with an infinite segfault loop. It turns out that the host kernel was providing a AT_SYSINFO_EHDR of 0xffffe000, which faked UML into believing that the host VDSO page could be reused. However, AT_SYSINFO pointed into the middle of the address space, and was unmapped as a result. Because UML was providing AT_SYSINFO_EHDR and AT_SYSINFO to its own processes, these would branch to nowhere when trying to use the VDSO. The fix is to also check the location of AT_SYSINFO when deciding whether to use the host's VDSO.

Add some locking to host_ldt_entries to prevent racing when reading LDT information from the host. The locking is somewhat more careful than my previous attempt.

A previous cleanup misused need_poll, which had a fairly broken interface. It implemented a growable array, changing the used elements count itself, but leaving it up to the caller to fill in the actual elements, including the entire array if the array had to be reallocated. This worked because the previous users were switching between two such structures, and the elements were copied from the inactive array to the active array after making sure the active array had enough room. maybe_sigio_broken was made to use need_poll, but it was operating on a single array, so when the buffer was reallocated, the previous contents were lost. This patch makes need_poll implement more sane semantics. It merely assures that the array is of the proper size and that the contents are preserved. It is up to the caller to adjust the used elements count and to ensure that the proper elements are resent. This manifested itself as a hang in 2.6.20 as the uninitialized buffer convinced UML that one of its own file descriptors didn't support SIGIO and needed to be watched by poll in a separate thread. The result was an interrupt flood as control traffic over this descriptor sparked interrupts, which resulted in more control traffic, ad nauseum.

Of kernel subsystems that work with pids the tty layer is probably the largest consumer. But it has the nice virtue that the assiation with a session only lasts until the session leader exits. Which means that no reference counting is required. So using struct pid winds up being a simple optimization to avoid hash table lookups. In the long term the use of pid_nr also ensures that when we have multiple pid spaces mixed everything will work correctly. Signed-off-by: NEric W.

This patch fixes some missing ptrace bits on x86_64. PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL is hooked up and implemented. This required generalizing arch_prctl_skas slightly to take a task_struct to modify. Previously, it always operated on current. Reading and writing the debug registers is also enabled by un-ifdefing the code that implements that. It turns out that x86_64 is identical to i386, so the same code can be used.

x86_64 needs some TLS fixes. What was missing was remembering the child thread id during clone and stuffing it into the child during each context switch. The %fs value is stored separately in the thread structure since the host controls what effect it has on the actual register file. The host also needs to store it in its own thread struct, so we need the value kept outside the register file. arch_prctl_skas was fixed to call PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL appropriately. There is some saving and restoring of registers in the ARCH_SET_* cases so that the correct set of registers are changed on the host and restored to the process when it runs again.

The startup code panics a lot if anything goes wrong early on. This is wrong for several reasons, like the kernel isn't running, so you can't really be calling into it yet, but the harm comes from useful error messages being trapped in the printk ring where no one will ever see them. This patch changes these panics to perror and printf in wrappers which also exit. Normal, informational, prints are also wrapped so that fflush(stdout) is called after each one.
