The previous page table walking code was horribly inefficient. This patch replaces it with code taken from elsewhere in the kernel. Forking from bash is now ~5% faster and page faults are handled ~10% faster. Signed-off-by:

Provide a register dump if handle_trap fails. Abstract out ptrace_dump_regs since it now has two callers. Signed-off-by:

Define release methods for the ubd and net drivers. They contain as much of the remove methods as make sense. All error checking must have already been done as well as anything else that might be holding a reference on the device kobject. Signed-off-by:

If there's a segfault inside the kernel, we want a dump of the registers at the point of the segfault, not the registers at the point of calling panic or the last userspace registers. sig_handler_common_skas now uses a static register set in the case of a SIGSEGV to avoid messing up the process registers if the segfault turns out to be non-fatal. The architecture sigcontext-to-pt_regs copying code was repurposed to copy data out of the SEGV stack frame. Signed-off-by:

Tidying in preparation for the segfault register dumping patch which follows. void * pointers are changed to union uml_pt_regs *. This makes the types match reality, except in arch_fixup, which is changed to operate on a union uml_pt_regs. This fixes a bug in the call from segv_handler, which passes a union uml_pt_regs, to segv, which expects to pass a struct sigcontext to arch_fixup. Whitespace and other style fixes. There's also a errno printk fix. Signed-off-by:

userspace code used to have to call the kernelspace function page_size() in order to determine the value of the kernel's PAGE_SIZE. Since this is now available directly from kern_constants.h as UM_KERN_PAGE_SIZE, page_size() can be deleted and calls changed to use the constant. Signed-off-by:

Clean up arch/um/kernel/process.c: - lots of return(x); -> return x; conversions - a number of the small functions are either unused, in which case they are gone, along any declarations in a header, or could be made static. - current_pid is ifdefed on CONFIG_MODE_TT and its declaration is ifdefed on both CONFIG_MODE_TT and UML_CONFIG_MODE_TT because we don't know whether it's being used in a userspace or kernel file.

flush_thread doesn't need to do a full page table walk in order to clear the address space. It knows what the end result needs to be, so it can call unmap directly. This results in a 10-20% speedup in an exec from bash. Signed-off-by:

To look at users I did: $ find arch/um/ include/asm-um -name '*.[ch]'|xargs grep -r 'net_kern\.h' +-l|xargs grep '\<user\>' Most users just cast user to the appropriate pointer, the remaining ones are fixed here. In net_kern.c, I'm almost sure that save trick is not needed anymore, but I've not verified it. Signed-off-by:

Rescue the useful contents of the soon-to-be-gone user-util.h. pty.c now gets ptsname from stdlib.h like it should have always done. CATCH_EINTR is now in os.h, although perhaps all usage should be under os-Linux at some point. get_pty is also in os.h. This patch restores the old definition of ARRAY_SIZE in user.h. This file is included only in userspace files, so there will be no conflict with the kernel's new ARRAY_SIZE. The copy of the kernel's ARRAY_SIZE and associated infrastructure is now gone.

This patch moves all the the symbols defined in um_arch.c, which are mostly boundaries between different parts of the UML kernel address space, to a new header, as-layout.h. There are also a few things here which aren't really related to address space layout, but which don't really have a better place to go. Signed-off-by:

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. Signed-off-by:

We can use a gcc extension to ensure that ARRAY_SIZE() is handed an array, not a pointer. This is especially important when code is changed from a fixed array to a pointer. I assume the Intel compiler doesn't support __builtin_types_compatible_p. [jdike@addtoit.com: uml: update UML definition of ARRAY_SIZE] Signed-off-by:

This fixes a number of problems associated with network interface hotplug. The userspace initialization function can fail in some cases, but the failure was never passed back to eth_configure, which proceeded with the configuration. This results in a zombie device that is present, but can't work. This is fixed by allowing the initialization routines to return an error, which is checked, and the configuration aborted on failure. eth_configure failed to check for many failures. Even when it did check, it didn't undo whatever initializations has already happened, so a present, but partially initialized and non-working device could result. It now checks everything that can fail, and bails out, undoing whatever had been done. The return value of eth_configure was always ignored, so it is now just void. Signed-off-by:

Fix a bunch of formatting violations in the drivers: return(n) -> return n whitespace fixes emacs formatting comment removal breaking if(foo) return(n) into two lines There are also a couple of errno use bugs: using errno in a printk when the failure put errno into a local variable saving errno after a printk, which can change it Signed-off-by:

If a disk fails to open, i.e. its host file doesn't exist, it won't be removable because the hot-unplug code checks the existence of its gendisk. This won't exist because it is only allocated for successfully opened disks. Thus, a typo on the command line can result in a unusable and unfixable disk. This is fixed by freeing the gendisk if it's there, but not letting that affect the removal. Signed-off-by:

Move the definition of PAGES_FOR_IO to kernel/power/power.h and introduce SPARE_PAGES representing the number of pages that should be freed by the swsusp's memory shrinker in addition to PAGES_FOR_IO so that device drivers can allocate some memory (up to 1 MB total) in their .suspend() routines without causing the suspend to fail.
