vmalloc() returns a void pointer, so casting to (void *) is pretty pointless. Signed-off-by:

Tidy the code affected by the floating point fixes. A bunch of unused stuff is gone, including two sigcontext.c files, which turned out to be entirely unneeded. There are the usual fixes - whitespace and style cleanups copyright updates emacs formatting comments gone include cleanups adding severities to printks Signed-off-by:

Fix the passing of printk output back to the mconsole client. The existing code was somewhat confused, accumulating output in a buffer, but writing it out entirely whenever a new chunk was added. This is fixed. The earlier include cleanups caused linux/sysrq.h to not be included - this is fixed by adding the include back, under CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ. CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ is also defaulted to on in defconfig. Signed-off-by:

Fix core dumping of floating point state. ELF_CORE_COPY_FPREGS gets a definitions, and as a result, dump_fpu no longer needs to exist. Also, elf_fpregset_t needed a real definition. Signed-off-by:

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. Something here exposed a missing include in asm/page.h, which needed linux/types.h in order to get gfp_t, so that's fixed here. Signed-off-by:

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. Signed-off-by:

Stop including asm/user.h from libc - it seems to be disappearing from distros. It's replaced with sys/user.h which defines user_fpregs_struct and user_fpxregs_struct instead of user_i387_struct and struct user_fxsr_struct on i386. As a bonus, on x86_64, I get to dump some stupid typedefs which were needed in order to get asm/user.h to compile. Signed-off-by:

Tidy the tlb flushing code. With tt mode gone, there is no reason to have the capability to have called directly from do_mmap, do_mprotect, and do_munmap, rather than calling a function pointer that it is given. There was a large amount of data that was passed from function to function, being used at the lowest level, without being changed. This stuff is now encapsulated in a structure which is initialized at the top layer and passed down. This simplifies the code, reduces the amount of code needed to pass the parameters around, and saves on stack space. A somewhat more subtle change is the meaning of the current operation index. It used to start at -1, being pre-incremented when adding an operation. It now starts at 0, being post-incremented, with associated adjustments of +/- 1 on comparisons. In addition, tlb.h contained a couple of declarations which had no users outside of tlb.c, so they could be moved or deleted. Signed-off-by:

A number of files that were changed in the recent removal of tt mode are userspace files which call the os_* wrappers instead of calling libc directly. A few other files were affected by this, through This patch makes these call glibc directly. There are also style fixes in the affected areas. os_print_error has no remaining callers, so it is deleted. There is a interface change to os_set_exec_close, eliminating a parameter which was always the same. The callers are fixed as well. os_process_pc got its error path cleaned up. Signed-off-by:

Convert the boot-time host ptrace testing from clone to fork. They were essentially doing fork anyway. This cleans up the code a bit, and makes valgrind a bit happier about grinding it. Signed-off-by:

This patch fixes some userspace files which were calling libc through the os_* wrappers. It turns out that there was only one user of os_new_tty_pgrp, so it can be deleted. There are also some style and whitespace fixes in here. Signed-off-by:

Before the removal of tt mode, access to a register on the skas-mode side of a pt_regs struct looked like pt_regs.regs.skas.regs.regs[FOO]. This was bad enough, but it became pt_regs.regs.regs.regs[FOO] with the removal of the union from the middle. To get rid of the run of three "regs", the last field is renamed to "gp". Signed-off-by:

do_longjmp used to be needed when UML didn't have its own implementation of setjmp and longjmp. They came from libc, and couldn't be called directly from kernel code, as the libc jmp_buf couldn't be imported there. do_longjmp was a userspace function which served to provide longjmp access to kernel code. This is gone, and a number of void * pointers can now be jmp_buf *. Signed-off-by:

Eliminate some uses of __u64 in the physical memory support. It's hard to get a definition of __u64 in both kernel and userspace code on x86_64, so this changes them to unsigned long long. There are also a copyright update and formatting comment removal from the affected header. Signed-off-by:

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. Signed-off-by: -

The next stage after removing code which depends on CONFIG_MODE_TT is removing 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. There are some changes in the uaccess and tls support which go somewhat beyond this and eliminate some of the now-redundant functions. Signed-off-by:

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. Signed-off-by:

Throw out a lot of code dealing with saving and restoring floating-point state. In skas mode, where processes run in a restoring floating-point state on kernel entry and exit is pointless. This eliminates most of arch/um/os-Linux/sys-{i386,x86_64}/registers.c. Most of what remained is now arch-indpendent, and can be moved up to arch/um/os-Linux/registers.c. Both arches need the jmp_buf accessor get_thread_reg, and i386 needs {save,restore}_fp_regs because it cheats during sigreturn by getting the fp state using ptrace rather than copying it out of the process sigcontext. After this, it turns out that arch/um/include/skas/mode-skas.h is almost completely unneeded. The declarations in it are variables which either don't exist or which don't have global scope. The one exception is kill_off_processes_skas. If that's removed, this header can be deleted. This uncovered a bug in user.h, which wasn't correctly making sure that a size_t definition was available to both userspace and kernelspace files. Signed-off-by: -

Remove includes of asm/page.h from libc code. This header seems to be disappearing, and UML doesn't make much use of it anyway. The one use, PAGE_SHIFT in stub.h, is handled by copying the constant from the kernel side of the house in common_offsets.h. Signed-off-by:

The previous console cleanup patch switched generic_read and generic_write from calling os_{read,write}_file to calling read and write directly. Because the calling convention is different, they now need to get any error from errno rather than the return value. I did this for generic_read, but forgot about generic_write. While chasing some output corruption, I noticed that line_write was unnecessarily calling flush_buffer, and deleted it. I don't understand why, but the corruption disappeared. This is unneeded because there already is a perfectly good mechanism for finding out when the host output device has some room to write data - there is an interrupt that comes in when writes can happen again. line_write calling flush_buffer seemed to just be an attempt to opportunistically get some data out to the host. I also made write_chan short-circuit calling into the host-level code for zero-length writes. Calling libc write with a length of zero conflated write not being able to write anything with asking it not to write anything. Better to just cut it off as soon as possible. Signed-off-by: -

This does a lot of cleanup on the UML console system. This patch should be entirely non-functional. The tidying is as follows: header cleanups - the includes should be closer to minimal and complete all printks now have a severity lots of style fixes fd_close is restructured a little in order to reduce the nesting some functions were calling the os_* wrappers when they can call libc directly port_accept had a unnecessary variable it also tested a pid unecessarily before killing it some functions were made static xterm_free is gone, as it was identical to generic_free Signed-off-by:
