The TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK flag allows us to have a generic implementation of sys_rt_sigsuspend() instead of duplicating it for each architecture. This provides such an implementation and makes arch/powerpc use it. It also tidies up the ppc32 sys_sigsuspend() to use TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK.

Here is a series of patches which introduce in total 13 new system calls which take a file descriptor/filename pair instead of a single file name. These functions, openat etc, have been discussed on numerous occasions. They are needed to implement race-free filesystem traversal, they are necessary to implement a virtual per-thread current working directory (think multi-threaded backup software), etc. We have in glibc today implementations of the interfaces which use the /proc/self/fd magic. But this code is rather expensive. Here are some results (similar to what Jim Meyering posted before). The test creates a deep directory hierarchy on a tmpfs filesystem. Then rm -fr is used to remove all directories. Without syscall support I get this: real 0m31.921s user 0m0.688s sys 0m31.234s With syscall support the results are much better: real 0m20.699s user 0m0.536s sys 0m20.149s The interfaces are for obvious reasons currently not much used. But they'll be used. coreutils (and Jeff's posixutils) are already using them. Furthermore, code like ftw/fts in libc (maybe even glob) will also start using them. I expect a patch to make follow soon. Every program which is walking the filesystem tree will benefit.

When the user specifies both a COW file and its backing file, if the previous backing file is not found, currently UML tries again to use it and fails. This can be corrected by changing same_backing_files() return value in that case, so that the caller will try to change the COW file to point to the new location, as already done in other cases. Additionally, given the change in the meaning of the func, change its name, invert its return value, so all values are inverted except when stat(from_cow,&buf2) fails. And add some comments and two minor bugfixes - remove a fd leak (return err rather than goto out) and a repeated check. Tested well.

*) mark as "EXPERIMENTAL" various items that either aren't very stable or that are actively crashing the setup of users which don't really need them (i.e. HIGHMEM and 3-level pagetables on x86 - nobody needs either, everybody reports "I'm using it and getting trouble"). *) move net/Kconfig near to the rest of network configurations, and drivers/block/Kconfig near "Block layer" submenu. *) it's useless and doesn't work well to force NETDEVICES on and to disable the prompt like it's done. Better remove the attempt, and change that to a simple "default y if UML". *) drop the warning about "report problems about HPPFS" - it's redundant anyway, as that's the usual procedure, and HPPFS users are especially technical (i.e. they know reporting bugs is _good_).

Ugly trick to help make malloc not sleeping - we can't do anything else. But this is not yet optimal, since spinlock don't trigger in_atomic() when preemption is disabled. Also, even if ugly, this was already used in one place, and was even more bogus. Fix it.

In a previous patch I shifted an allocation to being atomic. In this patch, a better but more intrusive solution is implemented, i.e. hold the lock only when really needing it, especially not over pipe operations, nor over the culprit allocation. Additionally, while at it, add a missing kfree in the failure path, and make sure that if we fail in forking, write_sigio_pid is -1 and not, say, -ENOMEM. And fix whitespace, at least for things I was touching anyway.

In this error path, when the interface has had a problem, we call dev_close(), which is disallowed for two reasons: *) takes again the UML internal spinlock, inside the ->stop method of this device *) can be called in process context only, while we're in interrupt context. I've also thought that calling dev_close() may be a wrong policy to follow, but it's not up to me to decide that. However, we may end up with multiple dev_close() queued on the same device. But the initial test for (dev->flags & IFF_UP) makes this harmless, though - and dev_close() is supposed to care about races with itself. So there's no harm in delaying the shutdown, IMHO. Something to mark the interface as "going to shutdown" would be appreciated, but dev_deactivate has the same problems as dev_close(), so we can't use it either.

Pre-clear transport-specific private structure before passing it down. In fact, I just got a slab corruption and kernel panic on exit because kfree() was called on a pointer which probably was never allocated, BUT hadn't been set to NULL by the driver. As the code is full of such errors, I've decided for now to go the safe way (we're talking about drivers), and to do the simple thing. I'm also starting to fix drivers, and already sent a patch for the daemon transport.

Avoid uninitialized data in the daemon_data structure. I used this transport before doing proper setup before-hand, and I got some very nice SLAB corruption due to freeing crap pointers.

Now that we are doing soft interrupts, there's no point in using sigsetjmp and siglongjmp. Using setjmp and longjmp saves a sigprocmask on every jump.

This patch implements soft interrupts. Interrupt enabling and disabling no longer map to sigprocmask. Rather, a flag is set indicating whether interrupts may be handled. If a signal comes in and interrupts are marked as OK, then it is handled normally. If interrupts are marked as off, then the signal handler simply returns after noting that a signal needs handling. When interrupts are enabled later on, this pending signals flag is checked, and the IRQ handlers are called at that point. The point of this is to reduce the cost of local_irq_save et al, since they are very much more common than the signals that they are enabling and disabling. Soft interrupts produce a speed-up of ~25% on a kernel build. Subtleties - UML uses sigsetjmp/siglongjmp to switch contexts. sigsetjmp has been wrapped in a save_flags-like macro which remembers the interrupt state at setjmp time, and restores it when it is longjmp-ed back to. The enable_signals function has to loop because the IRQ handler disables interrupts before returning. enable_signals has to return with signals enabled, and signals may come in between the disabling and the return to enable_signals. So, it loops for as long as there are pending signals, ensuring that signals are enabled when it finally returns, and that there are no pending signals that need to be dealt with.

s390 doesn't have a LDT. So MM_COPY_SEGMENTS will not be supported on s390. The only user of MM_COPY_SEGMENTS is new_mm(), but that's no longer useful, as arch/sys-i386/ldt.c defines init_new_ldt(), which is called immediately after new_mm(). So we should copy host's LDT in init_new_ldt(), if /proc/mm is available, to have this subarch specific call in subarch code.

Ensure a consistent value is read from the STICK register by ensuring that both high and low are read without high changing due to a roll over of the low register. Various Debian/SPARC users (myself include) have noticed problems with Hummingbird based systems. The symptoms are that the system time is seen to jump forward 3 days, 6 hours, 11 minutes give or take a few seconds. In many cases the system then hangs some time afterwards. I've spotted a race condition in the code to read the STICK register. I could not work out why 3d, 6h, 11m is important but guess that it is due to the 2^32 jump of STICK (forwards on one read and then the next read will seem to be backwards) during a timer interrupt. I'm guessing that a change of -2^32 will get converted to a large unsigned increment after the arithmetic manipulation between STICK, nanoseconds, jiffies etc. I did a test where I modified __hbird_read_stick to artificially inject rollover faults forcefully every few seconds. With this I saw the clock jump over 6 times in 12 hours compared to once every month or so. Signed-off-by: NRichard Mortimer <richm@oldelvet.org.uk> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.
