* Fix the use of errno: it refers to the __errno_location glibc definition when in ubd_user.c, and hence works; but in ubd_kern.c it refers to kernel_errno, which is different. So use the return value of os_* functions, as we should always have done. * Remove {read,write}_ubd_fs(), which are just silly.

Most code of ubd_user.c already uses the os_* functions, so it can be moved to ubd_kern.c. This patch simply moves the code without any hidden changes. The only change is inside io_thread(): since it calls signal(), I created a little function in ubd_user.c which just calls signal() with the right parameters. In a later patch (send together) I'll do some changes, to fix the usage of errno (which makes this code break when moved in a kernelspace file) and for some other little cleanups.

When parsing the <flags> section in ubd<n><flags>=file[,file2], instead of requiring that the flags are specified in a certain order, just make the code smarter.

Currently we can use this syntax ubd<n>[<flags>]=file1,file2. However, writing things as ubd0=~/Uml/file1,~/Uml/file2 does not work; in fact, the shell won't expand the second '~', since it's not at a path beginning; possibly even other shell expansions don't work here. So simply allow using, instead of the ',' separator, the ':' separator. The ',' separator can still be used to preserve backward compatibility.

UML has his own initcall mechanism to handle his special userspace initialization (they are called in different moments, so they are indeed It must also duplicate some definition for the benefit of userspace code - but those definition weren't in sync with the main code. Also, the UML own macros missed __attribute_used__. Both problems are fixed by this patch.

Cleanup: simplify a lot of strange constructs and whatever present in arch/um/Makefile. Also, get rid of redundant cleaning code introduced in "uml-fix-make-clean.patch" from 2.6.10-mm3 - when it was written it made sense, but I fixed most problems it addressed in a more elegant way. Also about that, don't remove $(ARCH_SYMLINKS) in make clean, but rather in make mrproper as we already do, like for include/asm-um and other symlinks. Finally, remove one wrong thing (almost a bug) introduced in that - the usage of the clean-dirs construct: clean-dirs := sys-$(SUBARCH) which is intended to delete one whole folder, rather than to descend to clean it, when used in normal Makefiles (not in the arch Makefile where is used, with no effect). It's also not needed because that folder is cleaned because is listed in either $(core-y) or $(libs-y).

If UML wants to open an xterm channel and the xterm does not run properly (eg. terminates soon after starting) we will get a hang (a comment added in the patch explains why). This avoids the most common cause for this and adds a comment (which long term will go away with a rewrite of that code); the complete fix would be to catch the xterm process dying, up(&data->sem), and -EIO all requests from that point onwards. That applies for some of the other channels too, so part of the code should probably be abstracted a little and generalized.

Optimize first/node_node Optimize nodemask_t slightly. The x86-64 find_first/next_bit uses __builtin_constant_p on the size argument to special cases small single long word searches. But most gccs don't make __builtin_constant_p true when an argument is passed through an inline function. Move the constant into the inline function to avoid this. This generates a lot better code for node searches on x86-64. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

With David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> We don't set MM_VM_SIZE() on ppc64, so it defaults to TASK_SIZE.

On some systems, the first PCI bus has a ISA I/O hole at the first 16MB. We can't use this space for DMA addresses on the bus. On Python-based machines, we'll skip the first 256MB on buses that have the hole, just as we do on later systems. This means that the first bus will have 768MB of DMA space shared between the devices on it.

When the iseries_veth driver module is unloaded there is the potential for an oops and also some memory leakage. Because the HvLpEvent_unregisterHandler() function did no synchronisation, it was possible for the handler that was being unregistered to be running on another CPU *after* HvLpEvent_unregisterHandler() had returned. This could cause the iseries_veth driver to leave work in the events work queue after the module had been unloaded. When that work was eventually executed we got an oops. In addition some of the data structures in the iseries_veth driver were not being correctly freed when the module was unloaded. This is the second patch, we make iseries_veth call flush_scheduled_work() after we are sure the handler is no longer running, and also fix the memory leaks.

I just discovered there's a thinko in the mark-page-accessed change in do_generic_mapping_read() in 2.6.11-rc1. ra.prev_page is compared to index to see if we read from this page before - except that prev_page is actually set to the recent page or even a page in front of the current page.
