Convert an arch that does not currently implement sub-jiffy timekeeping to use the generic timekeeping code. v850 looks like it has some intent to implement sub-jiffy timekeeping, so it may not yet be appropriate to try to convert, but I figured I'd get the maintainer's input and submit the patch for comment.

With the current timekeeping, !CONFIG_UML_REAL_TIME_CLOCK has inconsistent behavior. Previously, gettimeofday could be (and was) isolated from the clock ticking. Now, it's not, so when CONFIG_UML_REAL_TIME_CLOCK is disabled, gettimeofday must progress in lockstep with the clock, making it fully virtual. Signed-off-by:

More trimming of the page fault path. Permissions are passed around in a single int rather than one bit per int. The permission values are copied from libc so that they can be passed to mmap and mprotect without any further conversion. The register sets used by do_syscall_stub and copy_context_skas0 are initialized once, at boot time, rather than once per call. wait_stub_done checks whether it is getting the signals it expects by comparing the wait status to a mask containing bits for the signals of interest rather than comparing individually to the signal numbers. It also has one check for a wait failure instead of two. The caller is expected to do the initial continue of the stub. This gets rid of an argument and some logic. The fname argument is gone, as that can be had from a stack trace. user_signal() is collapsed into userspace() as it is basically one or two lines of code afterwards. The physical memory remapping stuff is gone, as it is unused. flush_tlb_page is inlined. Signed-off-by:

I missed removing another piece of debugging in an earlier patch. Signed-off-by:

Jeff Dike authored
Give the page fault code a specialized path. There is only one page to look at, so there's no point in going into the general page table walking code. There's only going to be one host operation, so there are no opportunities for merging. So, we go straight to the pte we want, figure out what needs doing, and do it. While I was in here, I fixed the wart where the address passed to unmap was a void *, but an unsigned long to map and protect. This gives me just under 10% on a kernel build. Signed-off-by:

Code running on the initial UML stack can't receive or process signals since current must be valid when IRQs are handled, and there is no current for this stack. So, instead of using UML_LONGJMP and UML_SETJMP, which are careful to save and restore signal state, and, as a side-effect, handle any deferred signals, start_idle_thread must use the bare equivalents, which don't do anything with signals.

Instead of writing entire structures between UML and the I/O thread, we send pointers. This cuts down on the amount of data being copied and possibly allows more requests to be pending between the two. This requires that the requests be kmalloced and freed instead of living on the stack. Signed-off-by:

Send as many I/O requests to the I/O thread as possible, even though it will still only handle one at a time. This provides an opportunity to reduce latency by starting one request before the previous one has been finished in the driver. Request handling is somewhat modernized by requesting sg pieces of a request and handling them separately, finishing off the entire request after all the pieces are done. When a request queue stalls, normally because its pipe to the I/O thread is full, it is put on the restart list. This list is processed by starting up the queues on it whenever there is some indication that progress might be possible again. Currently, this happens in the driver interrupt routine. Some requests have been finished, so there is likely to be room in the pipe again. This almost doubles throughput when copying data between devices, but made no noticable difference on anything else I tried. Signed-off-by:

This patch converts calls in the os layer to os_{read,write}_file to calls directly to libc read() and write() where it is clear that the I/O buffer is in the kernel. We can do that here instead of calling os_{read,write}_file_k since we are in libc code and can call libc directly. With the change in the calls, error handling needs to be changed to refer to errno directly rather than the return value of the call. CATCH_EINTR wrappers were also added where needed.

This patch lays some groundwork for the next one, which converts calls to os_{read,write}_file into {read,write}, by doing some tidying in the affected areas. do_not_aio gets restructured to make the final result a bit cleaner. There are also whitespace and other formatting fixes, fixes in error messages, and a typo fix. Signed-off-by: -

This patch starts the removal of a very old, very broken piece of code. This stems from the problem of passing a userspace buffer into read() or write() on the host. If that buffer had not yet been faulted in, read and write will return -EFAULT. To avoid this problem, the solution was to fault the buffer in before the system call by touching the pages that hold the buffer by doing a copy-user of a byte to each page. This is obviously bogus, but it does usually work, in tt mode, since the kernel and process are in the same address space and userspace addresses can be accessed directly in the kernel. In skas mode, where the kernel and process are in separate address spaces, it is completely bogus because the userspace address, which is invalid in the kernel, is passed into the system call instead of the corresponding physical address, which would be valid. Here, it appears that this code, on every host read() or write(), tries to fault in a random process page. This doesn't seem to cause any correctness problems, but there is a performance impact. This patch, and the ones following, result in a 10-15% performance gain on a kernel build. This code can't be immediately tossed out because when it is, you can't log in. Apparently, there is some code in the console driver which depends on this somehow. However, we can start removing it by switching the code which does I/O using kernel addresses to using plain read() and write(). This patch introduces os_read_file_k and os_write_file_k for use with kernel buffers and converts all call locations which use obvious kernel buffers to use them. These include I/O using buffers which are local variables which are on the stack or kmalloc-ed. Later patches will handle the less obvious cases, followed by a mass conversion back to the original interface. 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:
