      [PATCH] uml: make execvp safe for our usage · 5d48545e
      Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso 提交于
      Reimplement execvp for our purposes - after we call fork() it is fundamentally
      unsafe to use the kernel allocator - current is not valid there.  So we simply
      pass to our modified execvp() a preallocated buffer.  This fixes a real bug
      and works very well in testing (I've seen indirectly warning messages from the
      forked thread - they went on the pipe connected to its stdout and where read
      as a number by UML, when calling read_output().  I verified the obtained
      number corresponded to "BUG:").
      
      The added use of __cant_sleep() is not a new bug since __cant_sleep() is
      already used in the same function - passing an atomicity parameter would be
      better but it would require huge change, stating that this function must not
      be called in atomic context and can sleep is a better idea (will make sure of
      this gradually).

      [PATCH] uml: thread creation tidying · 3c917350
      Jeff Dike 提交于
      fork on UML has always somewhat subtle.  The underlying cause has been the
      need to initialize a stack for the new process.  The only portable way to
      initialize a new stack is to set it as the alternate signal stack and take a
      signal.  The signal handler does whatever initialization is needed and jumps
      back to the original stack, where the fork processing is finished.  The basic
      context switching mechanism is a jmp_buf for each process.  You switch to a
      new process by longjmping to its jmp_buf.
      
      Now that UML has its own implementation of setjmp and longjmp, and I can poke
      around inside a jmp_buf without fear that libc will change the structure, a
      much simpler mechanism is possible.  The jmpbuf can simply be initialized by
      hand.
      
      This eliminates -
      	the need to set up and remove the alternate signal stack
      	sending and handling a signal
      	the signal blocking needed around the stack switching, since
      there is no stack switching
      	setting up the jmp_buf needed to jump back to the original
      stack after the new one is set up
      
      In addition, since jmp_buf is now defined by UML, and not by libc, it can be
      embedded in the thread struct.  This makes it unnecessary to have it exist on
      the stack, where it used to be.  It also simplifies interfaces, since the
      switch jmp_buf used to be a void * inside the thread struct, and functions
      which took it as an argument needed to define a jmp_buf variable and assign it
      from the void *.

      [PATCH] uml: mark some tt-mode code · 0915ee38
      Jeff Dike 提交于
      Mark a symbol and file as being tt-mode only.  This shrinks the binary
      slightly when tt mode support is compiled out and makes it easier to identity
      stuff when tt mode is removed.

      [PATCH] uml: timer cleanups · 537ae946
      Jeff Dike 提交于
      set_interval returns an error instead of panicing if setitimer fails.  Some of
      its callers now check the return.
      
      enable_timer is largely tt-mode-specific, so it is marked as such, and the
      only skas-mode caller is made to call set-interval instead.
      
      user_time_init was a no-value-added wrapper around set_interval, so it is
      gone.
      
      Since set_interval is now called from kernel code, callers no longer pass
      ITIMER_* to it.  Instead, they pass a flag which is converted into ITIMER_REAL
      or ITIMER_VIRTUAL.

      [PATCH] uml: SIGIO cleanups · 19bdf040
      Jeff Dike 提交于
      - Various cleanups in the sigio code.
      
      - Removed explicit zero-initializations of a few structures.
      
      - Improved some error messages.
      
      - An API change - there was an asymmetry between reactivate_fd calling
        maybe_sigio_broken, which goes through all the machinery of figuring out if
        a file descriptor supports SIGIO and applying the workaround to it if not,
        and deactivate_fd, which just turns off the descriptor.
      
        This is changed so that only activate_fd calls maybe_sigio_broken, when
        the descriptor is first seen.  reactivate_fd now calls add_sigio_fd, which
        is symmetric with ignore_sigio_fd.
      
        This removes a recursion which makes a critical section look more critical
        than it really was, obsoleting a big comment to that effect.  This requires
        keeping track of all descriptors which are getting the SIGIO treatment, not
        just the ones being polled at any given moment, so that reactivate_fd,
        through add_sigio_fd, doesn't try to tell the SIGIO thread about descriptors
        it doesn't care about.

      [PATCH] uml: umid cleanup · 7eebe8a9
      Jeff Dike 提交于
      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.

      [PATCH] uml: separate libc-dependent umid code · 2264c475
      Jeff Dike 提交于
      I reworked Gennady's umid OS abstraction patch because the code shouldn't
      be moved entirely to os.  As it turns out, I moved most of it anyway.  This
      patch is the minimal one needed to move the code and have it work.
      It turns out that the concept of the umid is OS-independent, but
      almost everything else about the implementation is OS-dependent.
      
      This is code movement without cleanup - a follow-on patch tidies
      everything up without shuffling code around.
