2008-05-13uml: fix build when SLOB is enabledJeff Dike1-1/+1
Reintroduce uml_kmalloc for the benefit of UML libc code. The previous tactic of declaring __kmalloc so it could be called directly from the libc side of the house turned out to be getting too intimate with slab, and it doesn't work with slob. So, the uml_kmalloc wrapper is back. It calls kmalloc or whatever that translates into, and libc code calls it. kfree is left alone since that still works, leaving a somewhat inconsistent API.

2008-02-05uml: tidy helper codeJeff Dike1-1/+1
Style fixes to arch/um/os/helper.c and tidying up the breakpoint fix a bit. helper.c gets all the usual style fixes - updated copyright all printks get severities Also - errval changes to err in helper_child fixed an obsolete comment run_helper was killing a child process which is guaranteed to be dead or dying anyway Removed the nohang and pname arguments from helper_wait and fixed the declaration and callers. nohang was used only in the slirp driver and I don't think it was needed. I think pname was a bit of overkill in putting out an error message when something goes wrong.

2007-12-18uml: stop gdb from deleting breakpoints when running UMLStanislaw Gruszka1-1/+1
Sometimes when UML is debugged gdb miss breakpoints. When process traced by gdb do fork, debugger remove breakpoints from child address space. There is possibility to trace more than one fork, but this not work with UML, I guess (only guess) there is a deadlock - gdb waits for UML and UML waits for gdb. When clone() is called with SIGCHLD and CLONE_VM flags, gdb see this as PTRACE_EVENT_FORK not as PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE and remove breakpoints from child and at the same time from traced process, because either have the same address space. Maybe it is possible to do fix in gdb, but I'm not sure if there is easy way to find out if traced and child processes share memory. So I do fix for UML, it simply do not call clone() with both SIGCHLD and CLONE_VM flags together. Additionally __WALL flag is used for waitpid() to assure not miss clone and normal process events.

2007-07-16uml: Eliminate kernel allocator wrappersJeff Dike1-1/+1
UML had two wrapper procedures for kmalloc, um_kmalloc and um_kmalloc_atomic because the flag constants weren't available in userspace code. kern_constants.h had made kernel constants available for a long time, so there is no need for these wrappers any more. Rather, userspace code calls kmalloc directly with the userspace versions of the gfp flags. kmalloc isn't a real procedure, so I had to essentially copy the inline wrapper around __kmalloc. vmalloc also had its own wrapper for no good reason. This is now gone.

2007-07-16uml: simplify helper stack handlingJeff Dike1-1/+1
run_helper and run_helper_thread had arguments which were the same in all callers. run_helper's stack_out was always NULL and run_helper_thread's stack_order was always 0. These are now gone, and the constants folded into the code. Also fixed leaks of the helper stack in the AIO and SIGIO code.

2007-05-07uml: start fixing os_read_file and os_write_fileJeff Dike1-1/+1
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.

2007-05-07uml: remove page_size()Jeff Dike1-1/+2
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.

2006-09-29[PATCH] uml: assign random MACs to interfaces if necessaryJeff Dike1-0/+30
Assign a random MAC to an ethernet interface if one was not provided on the command line. This became pressing when distros started bringing interfaces up before assigning IPs to them. The previous pattern of assigning an IP then bringing it up allowed the MAC to be generated from the first IP assigned. However, once the thing is up, it's probably a bad idea to change the MAC, so the MAC stayed initialized to fe:fd:0:0:0:0. Now, if there is no MAC from the command line, one is generated. We use the microseconds from gettimeofday (20 bits), plus the low 12 bits of the pid to seed the random number generator. random() is called twice, with 16 bits of each result used. I didn't want to have to try to fill in 32 bits optimally given an arbitrary RAND_MAX, so I just assume that it is greater than 65536 and use 16 bits of each random() return. There is also a bit of reformatting and whitespace cleanup here.

2005-04-17Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds1-0/+255
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
