291248fd6e uml: remove unused variables in the context switcher
This patch removes a variable which was not used in two functions.  Yet
another code cleanup, nothing really significant.

Please note that I could not test this on x86_64. I don't have the
hardware for it.

[ jdike - Bits of tidying around the affected code.  Also, it's fine on
x86_64 ]

edea138584 uml: tidy kern_util.h
Tidy kern_util.h.  It turns out that most of the function declarations
aren't used, so they can go away.  os.h no longer includes
kern_util.h, so files which got it through os.h now need to include it
directly.  A number of other files never needed it, so these includes
are deleted.

The structure which was used to pass signal handlers from the kernel
side to the userspace side is gone.  Instead, the handlers are
declared here, and used directly from libc code.  This allows
arch/um/os-Linux/trap.c to be deleted, with its remnants being moved
to arch/um/os-Linux/skas/trap.c.

arch/um/os-Linux/tty.c had its inclusions changed, and it needed some
style attention, so it got tidied.

4bdf8bc4a1 uml: borrow const.h techniques
Suggested by Geert Uytterhoeven - use const.h to get constants that are usable
in both C and assembly.  I can't include it directly since this code can't
include kernel headers.  const.h is also for numeric constants that can be
typed by tacking a "UL" or similar on the end.  The constants here have to be
typed by casting them.

So, the relevant parts of const.h are copied here and modified in order to
allow the constants to be uncasted in assembly and casted in C.

9226b83847 uml: further bugs.c tidying
bugs.c, for both i386 and x86_64, can undergo further cleaning -
	The i386 arch_check_bugs only does one thing, so we might as
well inline the cmov checking.
	The i386 includes can be trimmed down a bit.
	arch_init_thread wasn't used, so it is deleted.
	The panics in arch_handle_signal are turned into printks
because the process is about to get segfaulted anyway, so something is
dying no matter what happens here.  Also, the return value was always
the same, so it contained no information, so it can be void instead.
The name is changed to arch_examine_signal because it doesn't handle
anything.
	The caller of arch_handle_signal, relay_signal, does things in
a different order.  The kernel-mode signal check is now first, which
puts everything else together, making things a bit clearer conceptually.

54ae36f24b uml: fix stub address calculations
The calculation of CONFIG_STUB_CODE and CONFIG_STUB_DATA didn't take into
account anything but 3G/1G and 2G/2G, leaving the other vmsplits out in the
cold.

I'd rather not duplicate the four known host vmsplit cases for each of these
symbols.  I'd also like to calculate them based on the highest userspace
address.

The Kconfig language seems not to allow calculation of hex constants, so I
moved this to as-layout.h.  CONFIG_STUB_CODE, CONFIG_STUB_DATA, and
CONFIG_STUB_START are now gone.  In their place are STUB_CODE, STUB_DATA, and
STUB_START in as-layout.h.

i386 and x86_64 seem to differ as to whether an unadorned constant is an int
or a long, so I cast them to unsigned long so they can be printed
consistently.  However, they are also used in stub.S, where C types don't work
so well.  So, there are ASM_ versions of these constants for use in stub.S.  I
also ifdef-ed the non-asm-friendly portion of as-layout.h.

With this in place, most of the rest of this patch is changing CONFIG_STUB_*
to STUB_*, except in stub.S, where they are changed to ASM_STUB_*.

defconfig has the old symbols deleted.

I also print these addresses out in case there is any problem mapping them on
the host.

The two stub.S files had some trailing whitespace, so that is cleaned up here.

Handle floating point state better in ptrace.  The code now correctly
distinguishes between PTRACE_[GS]ETFPREGS and PTRACE_[GS]ETFPXREGS.  The FPX
requests get handed off to arch-specific code because that's not generic.

get_fpregs, set_fpregs, set_fpregs, and set_fpxregs needed real
implementations.

linux/types.h in order to get gfp_t, so that's fixed here.

a5f6096c80 uml: floating point signal delivery fixes
Handle floating point state in across signals correctly.  UML/i386 needs to
know whether the host does PTRACE_[GS]ETFPXREGS, so an arch_init_registers
hook is added, which on x86_64 does nothing.

UML doesn't save and restore floating point registers on kernel entry and
exit, so they need to be copied between the host process and the sigcontext.
save_fpx_registers and restore_fpx_registers are added for this purpose.
save_fp_registers and restore_fp_registers already exist.

There was a bunch of floating point state conversion code in
arch/um/sys-i386/ptrace.c which isn't needed there, but is needed in signal.c,
so it is moved over.

The i386 code now distinguishes between fp and fpx state and handles them
correctly.  The x86_64 code just needs to copy state as-is between the host
process and the stack.  There are also some fixes there to pass the correct
address of the floating point state around.

77bf440031 uml: remove code made redundant by CHOOSE_MODE removal
This patch makes a number of simplifications enabled by the removal of
CHOOSE_MODE.  There were lots of functions that looked like

	int foo(args){
		foo_skas(args);
	}

The bodies of foo_skas are now folded into foo, and their declarations (and
sometimes entire header files) are deleted.

In addition, the union uml_pt_regs, which was a union between the tt and skas
register formats, is now a struct, with the tt-mode arm of the union being
removed.

It turns out that usr2_handler was unused, so it is gone.

the CHOOSE_MODE abstraction, which provided both compile-time and run-time
branching to either tt-mode or skas-mode code.

This patch removes choose-mode.h and all inclusions of it, and replaces all
CHOOSE_MODE invocations with the skas branch.  This leaves a number of trivial
functions which will be dealt with in a later patch.

42fda66387 uml: throw out CONFIG_MODE_TT
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.

1a65f493c3 uml: fix string exporting on UML/i386
In 2.6.23-rc1, i386 fiddled its string support such that UML started getting
undefined references from modules.  The UML asm/string.h was including the
i386 string.h, which defined __HAVE_ARCH_STR*, but the corresponding
implementations weren't being pulled in.

This is fixed by adding arch/i386/lib/string.h to the list of host
architecture files to be pulled in to UML.

A complication is that the libc exports file assumed that the generic strlen
and strstr weren't in use (i.e.  __HAVE_ARCH_STR is defined), then they aren't
exported.  This is untrue for strlen, which is exported in either case, so
this logic is not needed.

16dd07bc64 uml: more page fault path trimming
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.

3d564047a5 uml: start fixing os_read_file and os_write_file
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.

377fad3acb uml: kernel segfaults should dump proper registers
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.

5d86456d38 uml: tidy fault code
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.

10fa1155a2 [PATCH] uml: fix unreasonably long udelay
Currently we have a confused udelay implementation.

* __const_udelay does not accept usecs but xloops in i386 and x86_64
* our implementation requires usecs as arg
* it gets a xloops count when called by asm/arch/delay.h

Bugs related to this (extremely long shutdown times) where reported by some
x86_64 users, especially using Device Mapper.

To hit this bug, a compile-time constant time parameter must be passed -
that's why UML seems to work most times.  Fix this with a simple udelay
implementation.

af72790221 [PATCH] uml: fix host LDT lookup initialization locking, try 2
Add some locking to host_ldt_entries to prevent racing when reading LDT
information from the host.

The locking is somewhat more careful than my previous attempt.  Now, only
the check of host_ldt_entries is locked.  The lock is dropped immediately
afterwards, and if the LDT needs initializing, that (and the memory
allocations needed) proceed outside the lock.

Also fixed some style violations.

Use the same signal frame alignment calculations as the underlying
architecture.  x86_64 appeared to do this, but the "- 8" was really
subtracting 8 * sizeof(struct rt_sigframe) rather than 8 bytes.

UML/i386 might have been OK, but I changed the calculation to match
i386 just to be sure.

	  echo "De-casting $f..."
	  perl -pi -e "s/ ?= ?\([^\)]*\) *(k[cmz]alloc) *\(/ = \1\(/" $f
	done

And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers
to non-pointers.

And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.
