Jeff Dike cf6acedbea uml: improve PTRACE_SYSEMU checking
Make the PTRACE_SYSEMU checking more robust.  It will make sure that system
call numbers are reported correctly.  If there is a problem, it will disable
PTRACE_SYSEMU use and use PTRACE_SYSCALL instead.

Thanks to Balaji G for helping reproduce this problem.

Jeff Dike 36e4546304 uml: add missing __init declarations
The build started finding calls from non-init to init functions.  These are
just cases of init functions not being properly marked, so this patch fixes
that.

Jeff Dike c65badbdf5 uml: move SIGIO testing to sigio.c
This patch narrows the sigio interface.  The boot-time SIGIO testing used to
be in start_up.c, which meant that pty_output_sigio and pty_close_sigio needed
to be global.  By moving that code here, those can become static and the
declarations moved from user_util.h.

os_check_bugs is also here because it only does the SIGIO checking.  If it
does more, it'll probably move back to start_up.c.

Jeff Dike 3a150e1da8 [PATCH] uml: fix error output during early boot
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.  This is so the output appears in the correct
sequence in the event of an error.

Jeff Dike 73c8f4441f [PATCH] uml: libc-dependent code should call libc directly
We shouldn't be using the os wrappers from os code - we can use libc directly.
This patch replaces wrapper calls with libc calls.

It turns out that os_sigio_async had only one caller, which was in startup.c,
so that function is moved there and its name changed.

Jeff Dike 75e29b18d9 [PATCH] uml: stack usage reduction
The KSTK_* macros used an inordinate amount of stack.  In order to overcome
an impedance mismatch between their interface, which just returns a single
register value, and the interface of get_thread_regs, which took a full
pt_regs, the implementation created an on-stack pt_regs, filled it in, and
returned one field.  do_task_stat calls KSTK_* twice, resulting in two
local pt_regs, blowing out the stack.

This patch changes the interface (and name) of get_thread_regs to just
return a single register from a jmp_buf.

The include of archsetjmp.h" in registers.h to get the definition of
jmp_buf exposed a bogus include of <setjmp.h> in start_up.c.  <setjmp.h>
shouldn't be used anywhere any more since UML uses the klibc
setjmp/longjmp.

Jeff Dike 02dea0875b [PATCH] UML: Hotplug memory, take 2
Changes since first version
	added check for MADV_REMOVE support on the host
	fixed error return botch
	shrunk sprintf array by one character

This adds hotplug memory support to UML.  The mconsole syntax is
 	config mem=[+-]n[KMG]
In other words, add or subtract some number of kilobytes, megabytes, or
gigabytes.

Unplugged pages are allocated and then madvise(MADV_TRUNCATE), which is a
currently experimental madvise extension.  These pages are tracked so they
can be plugged back in later if the admin decides to give them back.  The
first page to be unplugged is used to keep track of about 4M of other
pages.  A list_head is the first thing on this page.  The rest is filled
with addresses of other unplugged pages.  This first page is not madvised,
obviously.

When this page is filled, the next page is used in a similar way and linked
onto a list with the first page.  Etc.  This whole process reverses when
pages are plugged back in.  When a tracking page no longer tracks any
unplugged pages, then it is next in line for plugging, which is done by
freeing pages back to the kernel.

Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso 516949480d [PATCH] uml: fix random segfaults at bootup
Don't use printk() where "current_thread_info()" is crap.

Until when we switch to running on init_stack, current_thread_info() evaluates
to crap. Printk uses "current" at times (in detail, &current is evaluated with
CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK to check the spinlock owner task).

And this leads to random segmentation faults.

Exactly, what happens is that &current = *(current_thread_info()), i.e. round
down $esp and dereference the value. I.e. access the stack below $esp, which
causes SIGSEGV on a VM_GROWSDOWN vma (see arch/i386/mm/fault.c).

Bodo Stroesser 858259cf7d [PATCH] uml: maintain own LDT entries
Patch imlements full LDT handling in SKAS:
 * UML holds it's own LDT table, used to deliver data on
   modify_ldt(READ)
 * UML disables the default_ldt, inherited from the host (SKAS3)
   or resets LDT entries, set by host's clib and inherited in
   SKAS0
 * A new global variable skas_needs_stub is inserted, that
   can be used to decide, whether stub-pages must be supported
   or not.
 * Uses the syscall-stub to replace missing PTRACE_LDT (therefore,
   write_ldt_entry needs to be modified)
