uml: throw out CONFIG_MODE_TT

2007-10-16T16:43:05+00:00

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.

minimal build fixes for uml (fallout from x86 merge)

2007-10-13T16:57:15+00:00

 a) include/asm-um/arch can't just point to include/asm-$(SUBARCH) now
 b) arch/{i386,x86_64}/crypto are merged now
 c) subarch-obj needed changes
 d) cpufeature_64.h should pull "cpufeature_32.h", not 
    since it can be included from asm-um/cpufeature.h
 e) in case of uml-i386 we need CONFIG_X86_32 for make and gcc, but not
    for Kconfig
 f) sysctl.c shouldn't do vdso_enabled for uml-i386 (actually, that one
    should be registered from corresponding arch/*/kernel/*, with ifdef
    going away; that's a separate patch, though).

With that and with Stephen's patch ("[PATCH net-2.6] uml: hard_header fix")
we have uml allmodconfig building both on i386 and amd64.

kbuild: fix ia64 breakage after introducing make -rR

2006-07-01T07:58:02+00:00

kbuild used $¤(*F to get filename of target without extension.
This was used in several places all over kbuild, but introducing
make -rR broke his for all cases where we specified full path to
target/prerequsite. It is assumed that make -rR disables old style
suffix-rules which is why is suddenly failed.

ia64 was impacted by this change because several div* routines in
arch/ia64/lib are build using explicit paths and then kbuild failed.

Thanks to David Mosberger-Tang  for an explanation
what was the root-cause and for testing on ia64.

This patch also fixes two uses of $(*F) in arch/um

[PATCH] uml: cleanup unprofile expression and build infrastructure

2006-05-02T01:17:45+00:00

*) 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 = ...

[PATCH] uml: support sparse for userspace files

2006-04-11T13:18:36+00:00

Make sparse checker work for userspace files - it normally gets -nostdinc
separately, so avoid having it for userspace files.  Also, add -D$(SUBARCH)
for multiarch hosts (i.e.  AMD64 with compatibility headers).

It works, the only problem is a bit of bogus warnings for system headers, but
they're not too many.

[PATCH] uml: maintain own LDT entries

2005-11-07T15:53:31+00:00

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)
