um: clean arch_ptrace() up a bit

2011-09-15T01:09:37Z

1) take subarch-specific stuff to subarch_ptrace() 2) PTRACE_{PEEK,POKE}{TEXT,DATA} is handled by ptrace_request() just fine... Signed-off-by: Al Viro Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

um: fix oopsable race in line_close()

2011-09-15T01:09:37Z

tty->count is decremented only after ->close() had been called and several tasks can hit it in parallel. As the result, using tty->count to check if you are the last one is broken. We end up leaving line->tty not reset to NULL and the next IRQ on that sucker will blow up trying to dereference pointers from kfree'd struct tty. Fix is obvious: we need to use a counter of our own.

um: Save FPU registers between task switches

2011-09-15T01:09:37Z

Some time ago Jeff prepared 42daba316557 ("uml: stop saving process FP state") for UML to stop saving the process FP state between task switches. The assumption was that since with SKAS0 every guest process runs inside a host process context the host OS will take care of keeping the proper FP state. Unfortunately this is not true for multi-threaded applications, where all guest threads share a single host process context yet all may use the FPU on their own. Although I haven't verified it I suspect things to be even worse in SKAS3 mode where all guest processes run inside a single host process. The patch reintroduces the saving and restoring of the FP context between task switches. [richard@nod.at: Ingo posted this patch in 2009, sadly it was never applied and got lost. Now in 2011 the problem was reported by Gunnar.] Signed-off-by: Ingo van Lil Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger Reported-by: Tested-by: Cc: Stanislav Meduna Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

ptrace: unify show_regs() prototype

um: clean up delay functions

2011-07-26T03:57:12Z

Both sys-i386 and sys-x86_64 support now ndelay(). The delay functions are based on arch/x86/lib/delay.c. Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

um: add asm/percpu.h

2011-06-28T01:00:12Z

To make SLUB work on UML we need this_cpu_cmpxchg from asm-generic/percpu.h. Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

Remove unused PROC_CHANGE_PENALTY constant

2011-05-25T15:39:43Z

This constant hasn't been used since before the git era (2.6.12) and thus can be dropped.

um: add earlyprintk support

2011-05-25T15:39:41Z

User Mode Linux can also benefit from earlyprintk. UML's earlyprintk writes kernel messages directly to stdout. Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

um: fix UML_LIB_PATH

2011-05-25T15:39:40Z

UML_LIB_PATH is hardcoded to /usr/lib/uml/, on 64bit systems UML_LIB_PATH needs to be /usr/lib64/uml/. Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
