Add retain_initrd option to control freeing of initrd memory after extraction. By default, free memory as previously. The first boot will need to hold a copy of the in memory fs for the second boot. This image can be large (much larger than the kernel), hence we can save time when the memory loader is slow. Also, it reduces the memory footprint while extracting the first boot since you don't need another copy of the fs. Signed-off-by:

This patch fixes some missing ptrace bits on x86_64. PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL is hooked up and implemented. This required generalizing arch_prctl_skas slightly to take a task_struct to modify. Previously, it always operated on current. Reading and writing the debug registers is also enabled by un-ifdefing the code that implements that. It turns out that x86_64 is identical to i386, so the same code can be used. Signed-off-by:

x86_64 needs some TLS fixes. What was missing was remembering the child thread id during clone and stuffing it into the child during each context switch. The %fs value is stored separately in the thread structure since the host controls what effect it has on the actual register file. The host also needs to store it in its own thread struct, so we need the value kept outside the register file. arch_prctl_skas was fixed to call PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL appropriately. There is some saving and restoring of registers in the ARCH_SET_* cases so that the correct set of registers are changed on the host and restored to the process when it runs again. Signed-off-by:

The startup code panics a lot if anything goes wrong early on. This is wrong for several reasons, like the kernel isn't running, so you can't really be calling into it yet, but the harm comes from useful error messages being trapped in the printk ring where no one will ever see them. This patch changes these panics to perror and printf in wrappers which also exit. Normal, informational, prints are also wrapped so that fflush(stdout) is called after each one. This is so the output appears in the correct sequence in the event of an error. Signed-off-by:

We shouldn't be using the os wrappers from os code - we can use libc directly. This patch replaces wrapper calls with libc calls. It turns out that os_sigio_async had only one caller, which was in startup.c, so that function is moved there and its name changed. Signed-off-by:

Some small locking and formatting fixes in the ubd driver. Signed-off-by:

Jeff Dike authored
Replace global queue and lock with per-device queues and locks. Mostly a straightforward replacement of ubd_io_lock with dev->lock and ubd_queue with dev->queue. Complications - There was no way to get a request struct (and queue) from the structure sent to the io_thread, so a pointer to the request was added. This is needed in ubd_handler in order to kick do_ubd_request to process another request. Queue initialization is moved from ubd_init to ubd_add. Signed-off-by:

Remove the last vestiges of devfs from console registration. Change the name of the function, plus remove a couple of unused fields from the line_driver structure. struct lines is no longer needed, all traces of it are gone. The only way that I can see to mark a structure as being almost-const is to individually const the fields. This is the case for the line_driver structure, which has only one modifiable field - a list_head in a sub-structure. Signed-off-by:

The chan_opts structure is mostly const, and needs no locking. Comment the lack of locking on the one field that can change. Make all the other fields const. It turned out that console_open_chan didn't use its chan_opts argument, so that is deleted from the function and its callers. Signed-off-by:
