* Epoll based IRQ controllerAnton Ivanov2018-02-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. Removes the need to walk the IRQ/Device list to determine who triggered the IRQ. 2. Improves scalability (up to several times performance improvement for cases with 10s of devices). 3. Improves UML baseline IO performance for one disk + one NIC use case by up to 10%. 4. Introduces write poll triggered IRQs. 5. Prerequisite for introducing high performance mmesg family of functions in network IO. 6. Fixes RNG shutdown which was leaking a file descriptor Signed-off-by: Anton Ivanov <anton.ivanov@cambridgegreys.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger <richard@nod.at>

* x86/arch_prctl/64: Rename do_arch_prctl() to do_arch_prctl_64()Kyle Huey2017-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to introduce new arch_prctls that are not 64 bit only, rename the existing 64 bit implementation to do_arch_prctl_64(). Also rename the second argument of that function from 'addr' to 'arg2', because it will no longer always be an address.

* um: Fix ptrace GETREGS/SETREGS bugsMickaël Salaün2016-01-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fix two related bugs: * PTRACE_GETREGS doesn't get the right orig_ax (syscall) value * PTRACE_SETREGS can't set the orig_ax value (erased by initial value) Get rid of the now useless and error-prone get_syscall(). Fix inconsistent behavior in the ptrace implementation for i386 when updating orig_eax automatically update the syscall number as well. This is now updated in handle_syscall().

* um: Switch clocksource to hrtimersAnton Ivanov2015-11-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | UML is using an obsolete itimer call for all timers and "polls" for kernel space timer firing in its userspace portion resulting in a long list of bugs and incorrect behaviour(s). It also uses ITIMER_VIRTUAL for its timer which results in the timer being dependent on it running and the cpu load. This patch fixes this by moving to posix high resolution timers firing off CLOCK_MONOTONIC and relaying the timer correctly to the UML userspace. Fixes: - crashes when hosts suspends/resumes - broken userspace timers - effecive ~40Hz instead of what they should be. Note - this modifies skas behavior by no longer setting an itimer per clone(). Timer events are relayed instead. - kernel network packet scheduling disciplines - tcp behaviour especially under load - various timer related corner cases Finally, overall responsiveness of userspace is better.

* um: Remove SKAS3/4 supportRichard Weinberger2015-04-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Before we had SKAS0 UML had two modes of operation TT (tracing thread) and SKAS3/4 (separated kernel address space). TT was known to be insecure and got removed a long time ago. SKAS3/4 required a few (3 or 4) patches on the host side which never went mainline. The last host patch is 10 years old. With SKAS0 mode (separated kernel address space using 0 host patches), default since 2005, SKAS3/4 is obsolete and can be removed. Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger <richard@nod.at>
* um: Memory corruption on startupAnton Ivanov2014-04-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The reverse case of this race (you must msync before read) is well known. This is the not so common one. It can be triggered only on systems which do a lot of task switching and only at UML startup. If you are starting 200+ UMLs ~ 0.5% will always die without this fix.

* um: Make stack trace reliable against kernel mode faultsRichard Weinberger2013-11-17
| | | | | | | | | | As UML uses an alternative signal stack we cannot use the current stack pointer for stack dumping if UML itself dies by SIGSEGV. To bypass this issue we save regs taken from mcontext in our segv handler into thread_struct and use these regs to obtain the stack pointer in show_stack().

* um: Cleanup SIGTERM handlingRichard Weinberger2013-09-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Richard reported that some UML processes survive if the UML main process receives a SIGTERM. This issue was caused by a wrongly placed signal(SIGTERM, SIG_DFL) in init_new_thread_signals(). It disabled the UML exit handler accidently for some processes. The correct solution is to disable the fatal handler for all UML helper threads/processes. Such that last_ditch_exit() does not get called multiple times and all processes can exit due to SIGTERM.

* um: ubd: Add REQ_FLUSH suppportRichard Weinberger2013-09-07
| | | | | | | | | | UML's block device driver does not support write barriers, to support this this patch adds REQ_FLUSH suppport.

* um: Implement probe_kernel_read()Richard Weinberger2013-09-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | UML needs it's own probe_kernel_read() to handle kernel mode faults correctly. The implementation uses mincore() on the host side to detect whether a page is owned by the UML kernel process. This fixes also a possible crash when sysrq-t is used. Starting with 3.10 sysrq-t calls probe_kernel_read() to read details from the kernel workers. As kernel worker are completely async pointers may turn NULL while reading them.

Plus sanitizing the asm glue and do_notify_resume() on alpha, fixing the "disabled irq while running task_work stuff" breakage there. At that point the rest of kernel_thread/kernel_execve/sys_execve work can be done independently for different architectures. The only pending bits that do depend on having all architectures converted are restrictred to fs/* and kernel/* - that'll obviously have to wait for the next cycle. I thought we'd have to wait for all of them done before we start eliminating the longjump-style insanity in kernel_execve(), but it turned out there's a very simple way to do that without flagday-style changes." * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal: alpha: switch to saner kernel_execve() semantics arm: switch to saner kernel_execve() semantics x86, um: convert to saner kernel_execve() semantics infrastructure for saner ret_from_kernel_thread semantics make sure that kernel_thread() callbacks call do_exit() themselves make sure that we always have a return path from kernel_execve() ppc: eeh_event should just use kthread_run() don't bother with kernel_thread/kernel_execve for launching linuxrc alpha: get rid of switch_stack argument of do_work_pending() alpha: don't bother passing switch_stack separately from regs alpha: take SIGPENDING/NOTIFY_RESUME loop into signal.c alpha: simplify TIF_NEED_RESCHED handling
