4c9e138513 uml: style fixes pass 1
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.

42fda66387 uml: throw out CONFIG_MODE_TT
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.

508a92741a uml: fix irqstack crash
This patch fixes a crash caused by an interrupt coming in when an IRQ stack
is being torn down.  When this happens, handle_signal will loop, setting up
the IRQ stack again because the tearing down had finished, and handling
whatever signals had come in.

However, to_irq_stack returns a mask of pending signals to be handled, plus
bit zero is set if the IRQ stack was already active, and thus shouldn't be
torn down.  This causes a problem because when handle_signal goes around
the loop, sig will be zero, and to_irq_stack will duly set bit zero in the
returned mask, faking handle_signal into believing that it shouldn't tear
down the IRQ stack and return thread_info pointers back to their original
values.

This will eventually cause a crash, as the IRQ stack thread_info will
continue pointing to the original task_struct and an interrupt will look
into it after it has been freed.

The fix is to stop passing a signal number into to_irq_stack.  Rather, the
pending signals mask is initialized beforehand with the bit for sig already
set.  References to sig in to_irq_stack can be replaced with references to
the mask.

4e950f6f01 Remove fs.h from mm.h
Remove fs.h from mm.h. For this,
 1) Uninline vma_wants_writenotify(). It's pretty huge anyway.
 2) Add back fs.h or less bloated headers (err.h) to files that need it.

As result, on x86_64 allyesconfig, fs.h dependencies cut down from 3929 files
rebuilt down to 3444 (-12.3%).

97a1fcbb20 uml: more __init annotations
2.6.23-rc1 turned up another batch of references from non-__init code to
__init code.  In most cases, these were missing __init annotations.  In one
case (os_drop_memory), the annotation was present but wrong.

init_maps is __init, but for some reason was being very careful about the
mechanism by which it allocated memory, checking whether it was OK to use
kmalloc (at this point in the boot, it definitely isn't) and using either
alloc_bootmem_low_pages or kmalloc/vmalloc.  So, the kmalloc/vmalloc code is
removed.

however that would be for another patch).

e4c4bf9968 uml: Eliminate kernel allocator wrappers
UML had two wrapper procedures for kmalloc, um_kmalloc and um_kmalloc_atomic
because the flag constants weren't available in userspace code.
kern_constants.h had made kernel constants available for a long time, so there
is no need for these wrappers any more.  Rather, userspace code calls kmalloc
directly with the userspace versions of the gfp flags.

kmalloc isn't a real procedure, so I had to essentially copy the inline
wrapper around __kmalloc.

vmalloc also had its own wrapper for no good reason.  This is now gone.

c14b84949e uml: iRQ stacks
Add a separate IRQ stack.  This differs from i386 in having the entire
interrupt run on a separate stack rather than starting on the normal kernel
stack and switching over once some preparation has been done.  The underlying
mechanism, is of course, sigaltstack.

Another difference is that interrupts that happen in userspace are handled on
the normal kernel stack.  These cause a wait wakeup instead of a signal
delivery so there is no point in trying to switch stacks for these.  There's
no other stuff on the stack, so there is no extra stack consumption.

This quirk makes it possible to have the entire interrupt run on a separate
stack - process preemption (and calls to schedule()) happens on a normal
kernel stack.  If we enable CONFIG_PREEMPT, this will need to be rethought.

The IRQ stack for CPU 0 is declared in the same way as the initial kernel
stack.  IRQ stacks for other CPUs will be allocated dynamically.

An extra field was added to the thread_info structure.  When the active
thread_info is copied to the IRQ stack, the real_thread field points back to
the original stack.  This makes it easy to tell where to copy the thread_info
struct back to when the interrupt is finished.  It also serves as a marker of
a nested interrupt.  It is NULL for the first interrupt on the stack, and
non-NULL for any nested interrupts.

Care is taken to behave correctly if a second interrupt comes in when the
thread_info structure is being set up or taken down.  I could just disable
interrupts here, but I don't feel like giving up any of the performance gained
by not flipping signals on and off.

If an interrupt comes in during these critical periods, the handler can't run
because it has no idea what shape the stack is in.  So, it sets a bit for its
signal in a global mask and returns.  The outer handler will deal with this
signal itself.

Atomicity is had with xchg.  A nested interrupt that needs to bail out will
xchg its signal mask into pending_mask and repeat in case yet another
interrupt hit at the same time, until the mask stabilizes.

The outermost interrupt will set up the thread_info and xchg a zero into
pending_mask when it is done.  At this point, nested interrupts will look at
->real_thread and see that no setup needs to be done.  They can just continue
normally.

Similar care needs to be taken when exiting the outer handler.  If another
interrupt comes in while it is copying the thread_info, it will drop a bit
into pending_mask.  The outer handler will check this and if it is non-zero,
will loop, set up the stack again, and handle the interrupt.

c83e448420 uml: an idle system should have zero load average
The ever-vigilant users of linode.com noticed that an idle 2.6 UML has a
persistent load average of ~.4.

It turns out that because the UML timer handler processed softirqs before
actually delivering the tick, the tick was counted in the context of the idle
thread about half the time.

b7ec15bd00 uml: virtualized time fix
With the current timekeeping, !CONFIG_UML_REAL_TIME_CLOCK has
inconsistent behavior.  Previously, gettimeofday could be (and was)
isolated from the clock ticking.  Now, it's not, so when
CONFIG_UML_REAL_TIME_CLOCK is disabled, gettimeofday must progress in
lockstep with the clock, making it fully virtual.

16dd07bc64 uml: more page fault path trimming
More trimming of the page fault path.

Permissions are passed around in a single int rather than one bit per
int.  The permission values are copied from libc so that they can be
passed to mmap and mprotect without any further conversion.

The register sets used by do_syscall_stub and copy_context_skas0 are
initialized once, at boot time, rather than once per call.

wait_stub_done checks whether it is getting the signals it expects by
comparing the wait status to a mask containing bits for the signals of
interest rather than comparing individually to the signal numbers.  It
also has one check for a wait failure instead of two.  The caller is
expected to do the initial continue of the stub.  This gets rid of an
argument and some logic.  The fname argument is gone, as that can be
had from a stack trace.

user_signal() is collapsed into userspace() as it is basically one or
two lines of code afterwards.

The physical memory remapping stuff is gone, as it is unused.

flush_tlb_page is inlined.

64f60841c0 uml: speed page fault path
Give the page fault code a specialized path.  There is only one page to look
at, so there's no point in going into the general page table walking code.
There's only going to be one host operation, so there are no opportunities for
merging.  So, we go straight to the pte we want, figure out what needs doing,
and do it.

While I was in here, I fixed the wart where the address passed to unmap was a
void *, but an unsigned long to map and protect.

This gives me just under 10% on a kernel build.

3d564047a5 uml: start fixing os_read_file and os_write_file
This patch starts the removal of a very old, very broken piece of code.  This
stems from the problem of passing a userspace buffer into read() or write() on
the host.  If that buffer had not yet been faulted in, read and write will
return -EFAULT.

To avoid this problem, the solution was to fault the buffer in before the
system call by touching the pages that hold the buffer by doing a copy-user of
a byte to each page.  This is obviously bogus, but it does usually work, in tt
mode, since the kernel and process are in the same address space and userspace
addresses can be accessed directly in the kernel.

In skas mode, where the kernel and process are in separate address spaces, it
is completely bogus because the userspace address, which is invalid in the
kernel, is passed into the system call instead of the corresponding physical
address, which would be valid.  Here, it appears that this code, on every host
read() or write(), tries to fault in a random process page.  This doesn't seem
to cause any correctness problems, but there is a performance impact.  This
patch, and the ones following, result in a 10-15% performance gain on a kernel
build.

This code can't be immediately tossed out because when it is, you can't log
in.  Apparently, there is some code in the console driver which depends on
this somehow.

However, we can start removing it by switching the code which does I/O using
kernel addresses to using plain read() and write().  This patch introduces
os_read_file_k and os_write_file_k for use with kernel buffers and converts
all call locations which use obvious kernel buffers to use them.  These
include I/O using buffers which are local variables which are on the stack or
kmalloc-ed.  Later patches will handle the less obvious cases, followed by a
mass conversion back to the original interface.

377fad3acb uml: kernel segfaults should dump proper registers
If there's a segfault inside the kernel, we want a dump of the registers at
the point of the segfault, not the registers at the point of calling panic or
the last userspace registers.

sig_handler_common_skas now uses a static register set in the case of a
SIGSEGV to avoid messing up the process registers if the segfault turns out to
be non-fatal.

The architecture sigcontext-to-pt_regs copying code was repurposed to copy
data out of the SEGV stack frame.

af84eab208 [PATCH] uml: fix LVM crash
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().

Reading and writing the debug registers is also enabled by un-ifdefing the

f28169d200 [PATCH] uml: return hotplug errors to host
I noticed that errors happening while hotplugging devices from the host were
never returned back to the mconsole client.  In some cases, success was
returned instead of even an information-free error.

This patch cleans that up by having the low-level configuration code pass back
an error string along with an error code.  At the top level, which knows
whether it is early boot time or responding to an mconsole request, the string
is printk'd or returned to the mconsole client.

There are also whitespace and trivial code cleanups in the surrounding code.

24ec839c43 [PATCH] tty: ->signal->tty locking
Fix the locking of signal->tty.

Use ->sighand->siglock to protect ->signal->tty; this lock is already used
by most other members of ->signal/->sighand.  And unless we are 'current'
or the tasklist_lock is held we need ->siglock to access ->signal anyway.

(NOTE: sys_unshare() is broken wrt ->sighand locking rules)

Note that tty_mutex is held over tty destruction, so while holding
tty_mutex any tty pointer remains valid.  Otherwise the lifetime of ttys
are governed by their open file handles.  This leaves some holes for tty
access from signal->tty (or any other non file related tty access).

It solves the tty SLAB scribbles we were seeing.

(NOTE: the change from group_send_sig_info to __group_send_sig_info needs to
       be examined by someone familiar with the security framework, I think
       it is safe given the SEND_SIG_PRIV from other __group_send_sig_info
       invocations)

Pass ticks to do_timer() and update_times(), and adjust x86_64 and s390
timer interrupt handler with this change.

Currently update_times() calculates ticks by "jiffies - wall_jiffies", but
callers of do_timer() should know how many ticks to update.  Passing ticks
get rid of this redundant calculation.  Also there are another redundancy
pointed out by Martin Schwidefsky.

This cleanup make a barrier added by
5aee405c66 needless.  So this patch removes
it.

As a bonus, this cleanup make wall_jiffies can be removed easily, since now
wall_jiffies is always synced with jiffies.  (This patch does not really
remove wall_jiffies.  It would be another cleanup patch)

f400e198b2 [PATCH] pidspace: is_init()
This is an updated version of Eric Biederman's is_init() patch.
(http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/2/6/280).  It applies cleanly to 2.6.18-rc3 and
replaces a few more instances of ->pid == 1 with is_init().

Further, is_init() checks pid and thus removes dependency on Eric's other
patches for now.

Eric's original description:

	There are a lot of places in the kernel where we test for init
	because we give it special properties.  Most  significantly init
	must not die.  This results in code all over the kernel test
	->pid == 1.

	Introduce is_init to capture this case.

	With multiple pid spaces for all of the cases affected we are
	looking for only the first process on the system, not some other
	process that has pid == 1.

3c91735099 [PATCH] uml: thread creation tidying
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 *.

537ae946e8 [PATCH] uml: timer cleanups
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.

19bdf0409f [PATCH] uml: SIGIO cleanups
- 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.

46a82b2d55 [PATCH] Standardize pxx_page macros
One of the changes necessary for shared page tables is to standardize the
pxx_page macros.  pte_page and pmd_page have always returned the struct
page associated with their entry, while pte_page_kernel and pmd_page_kernel
have returned the kernel virtual address.  pud_page and pgd_page, on the
other hand, return the kernel virtual address.

Shared page tables needs pud_page and pgd_page to return the actual page
structures.  There are very few actual users of these functions, so it is
simple to standardize their usage.

Since this is basic cleanup, I am submitting these changes as a standalone
patch.  Per Hugh Dickins' comments about it, I am also changing the
pxx_page_kernel macros to pxx_page_vaddr to clarify their meaning.

0b0bf7a3cc [PATCH] vDSO hash-style fix
The latest toolchains can produce a new ELF section in DSOs and
dynamically-linked executables.  The new section ".gnu.hash" replaces
".hash", and allows for more efficient runtime symbol lookups by the
dynamic linker.  The new ld option --hash-style={sysv|gnu|both} controls
whether to produce the old ".hash", the new ".gnu.hash", or both.  In some
new systems such as Fedora Core 6, gcc by default passes --hash-style=gnu
to the linker, so that a standard invocation of "gcc -shared" results in
producing a DSO with only ".gnu.hash".  The new ".gnu.hash" sections need
to be dealt with the same way as ".hash" sections in all respects; only the
dynamic linker cares about their contents.  To work with older dynamic
linkers (i.e.  preexisting releases of glibc), a binary must have the old
".hash" section.  The --hash-style=both option produces binaries that a new
dynamic linker can use more efficiently, but an old dynamic linker can
still handle.

The new section runs afoul of the custom linker scripts used to build vDSO
images for the kernel.  On ia64, the failure mode for this is a boot-time
panic because the vDSO's PT_IA_64_UNWIND segment winds up ill-formed.

This patch addresses the problem in two ways.

First, it mentions ".gnu.hash" in all the linker scripts alongside ".hash".
 This produces correct vDSO images with --hash-style=sysv (or old tools),
with --hash-style=gnu, or with --hash-style=both.

Second, it passes the --hash-style=sysv option when building the vDSO
images, so that ".gnu.hash" is not actually produced.  This is the most
conservative choice for compatibility with any old userland.  There is some
concern that some ancient glibc builds (though not any known old production
system) might choke on --hash-style=both binaries.  The optimizations
provided by the new style of hash section do not really matter for a DSO
with a tiny number of symbols, as the vDSO has.  If someone wants to use
=gnu or =both for their vDSO builds and worry less about that
compatibility, just change the option and the linker script changes will
make any choice work fine.

cleanup: remove task_t and convert all the uses to struct task_struct. I
introduced it for the scheduler anno and it was a mistake.

Conversion was mostly scripted, the result was reviewed and all
secondary whitespace and style impact (if any) was fixed up by hand.

47e5243afe [PATCH] uml: make copy_*_user atomic
Make __copy_*_user_inatomic really atomic to avoid "Sleeping function called in
atomic context" warnings, especially from futex code.

This is made by adding another kmap_atomic slot and making copy_*_user_skas
use kmap_atomic; also copy_*_user() becomes atomic, but that's true and is not
a problem for i386 (and we can always add might_sleep there as done
elsewhere).  For TT mode kmap is not used, so there's no need for this.

I've had to use another slot since both KM_USER0 and KM_USER1 are used
elsewhere and could cause conflicts.  Till now we reused the kmap_atomic slot
list from the subarch, but that's not needed as that list must contain the
common ones (used by generic code) + the ones used in architecture specific
code (and Uml till now used none); so I've taken the i386 one after comparing
it with ones from other archs, and added KM_UML_USERCOPY.

ff23db5373 [PATCH] uml: fix biarch gcc build on x86_64
I run an x86_64 kernel with i386 userspace (Ubuntu Dapper) and decided to try
out UML today.  I found that UML wasn't quite aware of biarch compilers (which
Ubuntu i386 ships).  A fix similar to what was done for x86_64 should probably
be committed (see
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113425940204010&w=2).  Without
the FLAGS changes, the build will fail at a number of places and without the
LINK change, the final link will fail.

d1bef4ed5f [PATCH] genirq: rename desc->handler to desc->chip
This patch-queue improves the generic IRQ layer to be truly generic, by adding
various abstractions and features to it, without impacting existing
functionality.

While the queue can be best described as "fix and improve everything in the
generic IRQ layer that we could think of", and thus it consists of many
smaller features and lots of cleanups, the one feature that stands out most is
the new 'irq chip' abstraction.

The irq-chip abstraction is about describing and coding and IRQ controller
driver by mapping its raw hardware capabilities [and quirks, if needed] in a
straightforward way, without having to think about "IRQ flow"
(level/edge/etc.) type of details.

This stands in contrast with the current 'irq-type' model of genirq
architectures, which 'mixes' raw hardware capabilities with 'flow' details.
The patchset supports both types of irq controller designs at once, and
converts i386 and x86_64 to the new irq-chip design.

As a bonus side-effect of the irq-chip approach, chained interrupt controllers
(master/slave PIC constructs, etc.) are now supported by design as well.

The end result of this patchset intends to be simpler architecture-level code
and more consolidation between architectures.

We reused many bits of code and many concepts from Russell King's ARM IRQ
layer, the merging of which was one of the motivations for this patchset.

This patch:

rename desc->handler to desc->chip.

Originally i did not want to do this, because it's a big patch.  But having
both "desc->handler", "desc->handle_irq" and "action->handler" caused a
large degree of confusion and made the code appear alot less clean than it
truly is.

I have also attempted a dual approach as well by introducing a
desc->chip alias - but that just wasnt robust enough and broke
frequently.

So lets get over with this quickly.  The conversion was done automatically
via scripts and converts all the code in the kernel.

This renaming patch is the first one amongst the patches, so that the
remaining patches can stay flexible and can be merged and split up
without having some big monolithic patch act as a merge barrier.

7b12b91379 [PATCH] uml: cleanup unprofile expression and build infrastructure
*) Rather than duplicate in various buggy ways the application of
   CFLAGS_NO_HARDENING and UNPROFILE (which apply to the same files),
   centralize it in Makefile.rules.  UNPROFILE_OBJS mustn't be listed in
   USER_OBJS but are compiled as such.

I've also verified that unprofile didn't work in the current form, because we
set _c_flags directly (using CFLAGS and not USER_CFLAGS, which is wrong),
which is normally used by c_flags, but we also override c_flags for all
USER_OBJS, and there we don't call unprofile.

Instead it only worked for unmap.o, the only one which wasn't a USER_OBJ.

We need to set c_flags (which is not a public Kbuild API) to clear a lot of
compilation flags like -nostdinc which Kbuild forces on everything.

*) Rather than $(CFLAGS_$(notdir $@)), which expands to CFLAGS_anObj.s when
   building "anObj.s", use $(CFLAGS_$(*F).o) which always accesses
   CFLAGS_anObj.o, like done by Kbuild.

*) Make c_flags apply to all targets having the same basename, rather than
   listing .s, .i, .lst and .o, with the use (which I tested) of

	$(USER_OBJS:.o=.%): c_flags = ...

and of

 -      $(obj)/unmap.c: _c_flags = ...
 +      $(obj)/unmap.%: _c_flags = ...

Implement sys_[gs]et_thread_area and the corresponding ptrace operations for
UML.  This is the main chunk, additional parts follow.  This implementation is
now well tested and has run reliably for some time, and we've understood all
the previously existing problems.

Their implementation saves the new GDT content and then forwards the call to
the host when appropriate, i.e.  immediately when the target process is
running or on context switch otherwise (i.e.  on fork and on ptrace() calls).

In SKAS mode, we must switch registers on each context switch (because SKAS
does not switches tls_array together with current->mm).

Also, added get_cpu() locking; this has been done for SKAS mode, since TT does
not need it (it does not use smp_processor_id()).

972410b023 [PATCH] uml: clean arch_switch usage
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...

Comparing this code which is the actual body of the arch-independent
cpu_idle(), it is clear that it's unnecessary to set ->mm and ->active_mm;
beyond that, a kernel thread is not supposed to have ->mm != NULL, only

This showed up because I used the assumption (which is IMHO valid) that kernel
thread have their ->mm == NULL, and it failed for this thread.

73b9ebfe12 [PATCH] pidhash: don't count idle threads
fork_idle() does unhash_process() just after copy_process().  Contrary,
boot_cpu's idle thread explicitely registers itself for each pid_type with nr
= 0.

copy_process() already checks p->pid != 0 before process_counts++, I think we
can just skip attach_pid() calls and job control inits for idle threads and
kill unhash_process().  We don't need to cleanup ->proc_dentry in fork_idle()
because with this patch idle threads are never hashed in
kernel/pid.c:pid_hash[].

We don't need to hash pid == 0 in pidmap_init().  free_pidmap() is never
called with pid == 0 arg, so it will never be reused.  So it is still possible
to use pid == 0 in any PIDTYPE_xxx namespace from kernel/pid.c's POV.

However with this patch we don't hash pid == 0 for PIDTYPE_PID case.  We still
have have PIDTYPE_PGID/PIDTYPE_SID entries with pid == 0: /sbin/init and
kernel threads which don't call daemonize().

e041c68341 [PATCH] Notifier chain update: API changes
The kernel's implementation of notifier chains is unsafe.  There is no
protection against entries being added to or removed from a chain while the
chain is in use.  The issues were discussed in this thread:

    http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113018709002036&w=2

We noticed that notifier chains in the kernel fall into two basic usage
classes:

	"Blocking" chains are always called from a process context
	and the callout routines are allowed to sleep;

	"Atomic" chains can be called from an atomic context and
	the callout routines are not allowed to sleep.

We decided to codify this distinction and make it part of the API.  Therefore
this set of patches introduces three new, parallel APIs: one for blocking
notifiers, one for atomic notifiers, and one for "raw" notifiers (which is
really just the old API under a new name).  New kinds of data structures are
used for the heads of the chains, and new routines are defined for
registration, unregistration, and calling a chain.  The three APIs are
explained in include/linux/notifier.h and their implementation is in
kernel/sys.c.

With atomic and blocking chains, the implementation guarantees that the chain
links will not be corrupted and that chain callers will not get messed up by
entries being added or removed.  For raw chains the implementation provides no
guarantees at all; users of this API must provide their own protections.  (The
idea was that situations may come up where the assumptions of the atomic and
blocking APIs are not appropriate, so it should be possible for users to
handle these things in their own way.)

There are some limitations, which should not be too hard to live with.  For
atomic/blocking chains, registration and unregistration must always be done in
a process context since the chain is protected by a mutex/rwsem.  Also, a
callout routine for a non-raw chain must not try to register or unregister
entries on its own chain.  (This did happen in a couple of places and the code
had to be changed to avoid it.)

Since atomic chains may be called from within an NMI handler, they cannot use
spinlocks for synchronization.  Instead we use RCU.  The overhead falls almost
entirely in the unregister routine, which is okay since unregistration is much
less frequent that calling a chain.

Here is the list of chains that we adjusted and their classifications.  None
of them use the raw API, so for the moment it is only a placeholder.

  ATOMIC CHAINS
  -------------
arch/i386/kernel/traps.c:		i386die_chain
arch/ia64/kernel/traps.c:		ia64die_chain
arch/powerpc/kernel/traps.c:		powerpc_die_chain
arch/sparc64/kernel/traps.c:		sparc64die_chain
arch/x86_64/kernel/traps.c:		die_chain
drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c:	xaction_notifier_list
kernel/panic.c:				panic_notifier_list
kernel/profile.c:			task_free_notifier
net/bluetooth/hci_core.c:		hci_notifier
net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c:	ip_conntrack_chain
net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c:	ip_conntrack_expect_chain
net/ipv6/addrconf.c:			inet6addr_chain
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:	nf_conntrack_chain
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:	nf_conntrack_expect_chain
net/netlink/af_netlink.c:		netlink_chain

  BLOCKING CHAINS
  ---------------
arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/reconfig.c:	pSeries_reconfig_chain
arch/s390/kernel/process.c:		idle_chain
arch/x86_64/kernel/process.c		idle_notifier
drivers/base/memory.c:			memory_chain
drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c		cpufreq_policy_notifier_list
drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c		cpufreq_transition_notifier_list
drivers/macintosh/adb.c:		adb_client_list
drivers/macintosh/via-pmu.c		sleep_notifier_list
drivers/macintosh/via-pmu68k.c		sleep_notifier_list
drivers/macintosh/windfarm_core.c	wf_client_list
drivers/usb/core/notify.c		usb_notifier_list
drivers/video/fbmem.c			fb_notifier_list
kernel/cpu.c				cpu_chain
kernel/module.c				module_notify_list
kernel/profile.c			munmap_notifier
kernel/profile.c			task_exit_notifier
kernel/sys.c				reboot_notifier_list
net/core/dev.c				netdev_chain
net/decnet/dn_dev.c:			dnaddr_chain
net/ipv4/devinet.c:			inetaddr_chain

It's possible that some of these classifications are wrong.  If they are,
please let us know or submit a patch to fix them.  Note that any chain that
gets called very frequently should be atomic, because the rwsem read-locking
used for blocking chains is very likely to incur cache misses on SMP systems.
(However, if the chain's callout routines may sleep then the chain cannot be
atomic.)

Morton.

22a9835c35 [PATCH] unify PFN_* macros
Just about every architecture defines some macros to do operations on pfns.
 They're all virtually identical.  This patch consolidates all of them.

One minor glitch is that at least i386 uses them in a very skeletal header
file.  To keep away from #include dependency hell, I stuck the new
definitions in a new, isolated header.

Of all of the implementations, sh64 is the only one that varied by a bit.
It used some masks to ensure that any sign-extension got ripped away before
the arithmetic is done.  This has been posted to that sh64 maintainers and
the development list.

Compiles on x86, x86_64, ia64 and ppc64.

9a0b5817ad [PATCH] x86: SMP alternatives
Implement SMP alternatives, i.e.  switching at runtime between different
code versions for UP and SMP.  The code can patch both SMP->UP and UP->SMP.
The UP->SMP case is useful for CPU hotplug.

With CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG enabled the code switches to UP at boot time and
when the number of CPUs goes down to 1, and switches to SMP when the number
of CPUs goes up to 2.

Without CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG or on non-SMP-capable systems the code is
patched once at boot time (if needed) and the tables are released
afterwards.

The changes in detail:

  * The current alternatives bits are moved to a separate file,
    the SMP alternatives code is added there.

  * The patch adds some new elf sections to the kernel:
    .smp_altinstructions
	like .altinstructions, also contains a list
	of alt_instr structs.
    .smp_altinstr_replacement
	like .altinstr_replacement, but also has some space to
	save original instruction before replaving it.
    .smp_locks
	list of pointers to lock prefixes which can be nop'ed
	out on UP.
    The first two are used to replace more complex instruction
    sequences such as spinlocks and semaphores.  It would be possible
    to deal with the lock prefixes with that as well, but by handling
    them as special case the table sizes become much smaller.

 * The sections are page-aligned and padded up to page size, so they
   can be free if they are not needed.

 * Splitted the code to release init pages to a separate function and
   use it to release the elf sections if they are unused.

Olaf reported UML doesn't build for him with a clear analisys of what happened
- we're using NR_CPUS in files linked against glibc headers.  Seems like it
defines CONFIG_SMP but not CONFIG_NR_CPUS, so we get CONFIG_NR_CPUS
undeclared.

The fix is to move the declaration away from that header file and move it in
asm-um headers, and to add that header where needed.

Additionally, while at it, add a missing kfree in the failure path, and make

2.6.15-mm1 caused kernel-offsets.c to stop compiling with a syntax error in a
header.  The problem was with KBUILD_BASENAME, which didn't get a definition
with the by-hand compilation in the main UML Makefile.

This was OK before since the expansion was syntactically the same as the
KBUILD_BASENAME token.  With -mm1, the expansion is now a quote-delimited
string, so there needs to be a definition of it.

Since kernel-offsets.c is basically the same as other arches' asm-offsets.c,
and those seem to build OK, this patch turns kernel-offsets.c into
asm-offsets.c.  kernel-offsets.c is in arch/um/sys-$(SUBARCH), i.e.  sys-i386
and sys-x86_64, while kbuild expects it to be in arch/um/kernel.
kernel-offsets.c is moved to
arch/um/include/sysdep-$(SUBARCH)/kernel-offsets.h, which is included by
arch/um/kernel/asm-offsets.c.  With that, include/asm-um/asm-offsets.h is
generated automatically.  kernel-offsets.h continues to exist because it needs
to be accessible to userspace UML code, and include/asm-um isn't.  So, a
symlink is made from arch/um/include/kernel-offsets.h to
include/asm-um/asm-offsets.h.

5e38291d80 [PATCH] Don't attempt to power off if power off is not implemented
The problem.  It is expected that /sbin/halt -p works exactly like
/sbin/halt, when the kernel does not implement power off functionality.

The kernel can do a lot of work in the reboot notifiers and in
device_shutdown before we even get to machine_power_off.  Some of that
shutdown is not safe if you are leaving the power on, and it definitely
gets in the way of using sysrq or pressing ctrl-alt-del.  Since the
shutdown happens in generic code there is no way to fix this in
architecture specific code :(

Some machines are kernel oopsing today because of this.

The simple solution is to turn LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_POWER_OFF into
LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_HALT if power_off functionality is not implemented.

This has the unfortunate side effect of disabling the power off
functionality on architectures that leave pm_power_off to null and still
implement something in machine_power_off.  And it will break the build on
some architectures that don't have a pm_power_off variable at all.

On both counts I say tough.

For architectures like alpha that don't implement the pm_power_off variable
pm_power_off is declared in linux/pm.h and it is a generic part of our
power management code, and all architectures should implement it.

For architectures like parisc that have a default power off method in
machine_power_off if pm_power_off is not implemented or fails.  It is easy
enough to set the pm_power_off variable.  And nothing bad happens there,
the machines just stop powering off.

The current semantics are impossible without a flag at the top level so we
can avoid the problem code if a power off is not implemented.  pm_power_off
is as good a flag as any with the bonus that it works without modification
on at least x86, x86_64, powerpc, and ppc today.

Andrew can you pick this up and put this in the mm tree.  Kernels that
don't compile or don't power off seem saner than kernels that oops or
panic.  Until we get the arch specific patches for the problem
architectures this probably isn't smart to push into the stable kernel.
Unfortunately I don't have the time at the moment to walk through every
architecture and make them work.  And even if I did I couldn't test it :(

7eebe8a9c5 [PATCH] uml: umid cleanup
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.

2264c475e4 [PATCH] uml: separate libc-dependent umid code
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.
