* [PATCH] uml: capture printk output for mconsole stackJeff Dike2006-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The stack command now sends the printk output back to the mconsole client. This is done by registering a special console for the mconsole driver. This receives all printk output. Normally, it is ignored, but when a stack command is issued, any printk output will be sent back to the client. This will capture any printk output, whether it is stack output or not, since we can't tell the difference.

* [PATCH] uml: umid cleanupJeff Dike2006-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 codeJeff Dike2006-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* [PATCH] uml: Simplify console opening/closing and irq registrationJeff Dike2006-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch simplifies the opening and closing of host console devices and the registration and deregistration of IRQs. The intent is to make it obvious that an IRQ can't exist without an open file descriptor. chan_enable will now open the channel, and when both opening and IRQ registration are desired, this should be used. Opening only is done for the initial console, so that interface still needs to exist. The free_irqs_later interface is now gone. It was intended to avoid freeing an IRQ while it was being processed. It did this, but it didn't eliminate the possiblity of free_irq being called from an interrupt, which is bad. In its place is a list of irqs to be freed, which is processed by the signal handler just before exiting. close_one_chan now disables irqs. When a host device disappears, it is just closed, and that disables IRQs. The device id registered with the IRQ is now the chan structure, not the tty. This is because the interrupt arrives on a descriptor associated with the channel. This caused equivalent changes in the arguments to line_timer_cb. line_disable is gone since it is not used any more. The count field in the line structure is gone. tty->count is used instead. The complicated logic in sigio_handler with freeing IRQs when necessary and making sure its idea of the next irq is correct is now much simpler. The irq list can't be rearranged underneath it, so it is now a simple list walk.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch changes when console devices are configured in order to prepare the ground for the next patch. parse_chan_pair is now done earlier, when initcalls are run, rather than when the device is opened. When a host device disappears, the channel list is closed, but not freed. This is required by the previous change. line_config now takes the options structure as an argument, and line_open doesn't.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it> UML skas0 stub has been miscompiling for many people (incidentally not the authors), depending on the used GCC versions. I think (and testing on some GCC versions shows) this patch avoids the fundamental issue which is behind this, namely gcc using the stack when we have just replaced it, behind gcc's back. The remapping and storage of the return value is hidden in a blob of asm, hopefully giving gcc no room for creativity.

* [PATCH] uml: eliminate use of local in clone stubJeff Dike2005-11-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have a bug in the i386 stub_syscall6 which pushes ebp before the system call and pops it afterwards. Because we use syscall6 to remap the stack, the old contents of the stack (and the former value of ebp) are no longer available. Some versions of gcc make from a real local, accessed through ebp, despite my efforts to make it obvious that references to from are really constants. This patch attempts to make it even more obvious by eliminating from and using a macro to access the stub's data explicitly with constants. My original thinking on this was to replace syscall6 with a remap_stack interface which saved ebp someplace and restored it afterwards. The problem is that there are no registers to put it in, except for esp. That could work, since we can store a constant in esp after the mmap because we just replaced the stack.

I couldn't find in SCM logs the introduction of this check, but I went back to 2.4.20-1um and the definition was the same. Possibly this was done to avoid problems with missing set_fs() calls, but there can't be any I think because they would fail with SKAS mode. TT-specific code is still to check. Also, this patch joins common code together, and makes the "address range wrapping" check happen for all cases, rather than for only some. This may, possibly, be reoptimized at some time, but the current code doesn't seem clever, just confused. * Important: I've also had to change references to access_ok_{tt,skas} back to access_ok - the kernel wasn't that happy otherwise.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | printk clears the host errno (I verified this in debugging and it's reasonable enough, given that it ends via a write call on some fd, especially since printk() goes on /dev/tty0 which is often the host stdout). So save errno earlier. There's no reason to change the printk calls to use -err rather than errno - the assignment can't clear errno. And in the first failure path, we used to return 0 too (and this time more clearly), which is totally wrong. 0 is a success fd, which is then registered and gives a "registering fd twice" warning.

* [PATCH] uml: remove bogus WARN_ON, triggerable harmlessly on a page fault racePaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso2005-11-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The below warning was added in place of pte_mkyoung(); if (is_write) pte_mkdirty(); In fact, if the PTE is not marked young/dirty, our dirty/accessed bit emulation would cause the TLB permission not to be changed, and so we'd loop, and given we don't support preemption yet, we'd busy-hang here. However, I've seen this warning trigger without crashes during a loop of concurrent kernel builds, at random times (i.e. like a race condition), and I realized that two concurrent faults on the same page, one on read and one on write, can trigger it. The read fault gets serviced and the PTE gets marked writable but clean (it's possible on a shared-writable mapping), while the generic code sees the PTE was already installed and returns without action. In this case, we'll see another fault and service it normally.

* [PATCH] consolidate sys_ptrace()Christoph Hellwig2005-11-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The sys_ptrace boilerplate code (everything outside the big switch statement for the arch-specific requests) is shared by most architectures. This patch moves it to kernel/ptrace.c and leaves the arch-specific code as arch_ptrace. Some architectures have a too different ptrace so we have to exclude them. They continue to keep their implementations. For sh64 I had to add a sh64_ptrace wrapper because it does some initialization on the first call. For um I removed an ifdefed SUBARCH_PTRACE_SPECIAL block, but SUBARCH_PTRACE_SPECIAL isn't defined anywhere in the tree.

* [PATCH] uml: build host-binaries with the native host arch againPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso2005-11-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch reverts back the changes to HOSTCFLAGS and HOSTLDFLAGS When we were building complete binaries to get constants (such as ptrace register layout on stack) from host userspace headers, we needed to make the arch for building HOST binaries match our one: i.e. on a 64bit system compiling 32bit binaries, we compile 32-bit hostprogs and need, say, 32-bit ncurses. Now we can revert that - that avoids problem with, say, menuconfig and ncurses, on a system which can't compile well 32-bit programs.
