* [PATCH] uml: close file descriptor leaksJeff Dike2006-09-291-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | Close two file descriptor leaks, one in the ubd driver and one to /proc/mounts. The ubd driver bug also leaked some vmalloc space. The /proc/mounts leak was a descriptor that was just never closed.

* [PATCH] uml: thread creation tidyingJeff Dike2006-09-271-52/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fork on UML has always somewhat subtle. The underlying cause has been the need to initialize a stack for the new process. The only portable way to initialize a new stack is to set it as the alternate signal stack and take a signal. The signal handler does whatever initialization is needed and jumps back to the original stack, where the fork processing is finished. The basic context switching mechanism is a jmp_buf for each process. You switch to a new process by longjmping to its jmp_buf. Now that UML has its own implementation of setjmp and longjmp, and I can poke around inside a jmp_buf without fear that libc will change the structure, a much simpler mechanism is possible. The jmpbuf can simply be initialized by hand. This eliminates - the need to set up and remove the alternate signal stack sending and handling a signal the signal blocking needed around the stack switching, since there is no stack switching setting up the jmp_buf needed to jump back to the original stack after the new one is set up In addition, since jmp_buf is now defined by UML, and not by libc, it can be embedded in the thread struct. This makes it unnecessary to have it exist on the stack, where it used to be. It also simplifies interfaces, since the switch jmp_buf used to be a void * inside the thread struct, and functions which took it as an argument needed to define a jmp_buf variable and assign it from the void *.

* [PATCH] uml: stack usage reductionJeff Dike2006-09-263-13/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The KSTK_* macros used an inordinate amount of stack. In order to overcome an impedance mismatch between their interface, which just returns a single register value, and the interface of get_thread_regs, which took a full pt_regs, the implementation created an on-stack pt_regs, filled it in, and returned one field. do_task_stat calls KSTK_* twice, resulting in two local pt_regs, blowing out the stack. This patch changes the interface (and name) of get_thread_regs to just return a single register from a jmp_buf. The include of archsetjmp.h" in registers.h to get the definition of jmp_buf exposed a bogus include of <setjmp.h> in start_up.c. <setjmp.h> shouldn't be used anywhere any more since UML uses the klibc setjmp/longjmp.

* [PATCH] uml: timer cleanupsJeff Dike2006-09-262-10/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | set_interval returns an error instead of panicing if setitimer fails. Some of its callers now check the return. enable_timer is largely tt-mode-specific, so it is marked as such, and the only skas-mode caller is made to call set-interval instead. user_time_init was a no-value-added wrapper around set_interval, so it is gone. Since set_interval is now called from kernel code, callers no longer pass ITIMER_* to it. Instead, they pass a flag which is converted into ITIMER_REAL or ITIMER_VIRTUAL.

* [PATCH] uml: Move signal handlers to arch codeJeff Dike2006-09-2610-33/+102
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Have most signals go through an arch-provided handler which recovers the sigcontext and then calls a generic handler. This replaces the ARCH_GET_SIGCONTEXT macro, which was somewhat fragile. On x86_64, recovering %rdx (which holds the sigcontext pointer) must be the first thing that happens. sig_handler duly invokes that first, but there is no guarantee that I can see that instructions won't be reordered such that %rdx is used before that. Having the arch provide the handler seems much more robust. Some signals in some parts of UML require their own handlers - these places don't call set_handler any more. They call sigaction or signal themselves. Signed-off-by: Jeff Dike <jdike@addtoit.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] uml: SIGIO cleanupsJeff Dike2006-09-261-47/+56
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Various cleanups in the sigio code. - Removed explicit zero-initializations of a few structures. - Improved some error messages. - An API change - there was an asymmetry between reactivate_fd calling maybe_sigio_broken, which goes through all the machinery of figuring out if a file descriptor supports SIGIO and applying the workaround to it if not, and deactivate_fd, which just turns off the descriptor. This is changed so that only activate_fd calls maybe_sigio_broken, when the descriptor is first seen. reactivate_fd now calls add_sigio_fd, which is symmetric with ignore_sigio_fd. This removes a recursion which makes a critical section look more critical than it really was, obsoleting a big comment to that effect. This requires keeping track of all descriptors which are getting the SIGIO treatment, not just the ones being polled at any given moment, so that reactivate_fd, through add_sigio_fd, doesn't try to tell the SIGIO thread about descriptors it doesn't care about.

* [PATCH] uml: Use klibc setjmp/longjmpJeff Dike2006-09-267-19/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds an implementation of setjmp and longjmp to UML, allowing access to the inside of a jmpbuf without needing the access macros formerly provided by libc. The implementation is stolen from klibc. I copy the relevant files into arch/um. I have another patch which avoids the copying, but requires klibc be in the tree. setjmp and longjmp users required some tweaking. Includes of <setjmp.h> were removed and includes of the UML longjmp.h were added where necessary. There are also replacements of siglongjmp with UML_LONGJMP which I somehow missed earlier.

* [PATCH] uml: timer initialization cleanupJeff Dike2006-07-103-46/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This cleans up the mess that is the timer initialization. There used to be two timer handlers - one that basically ran during delay loop calibration and one that handled the timer afterwards. There were also two sets of timer initialization code - one that starts in user code and calls into the kernel side of the house, and one that starts in kernel code and calls user code. This eliminates one timer handler and consolidates the two sets of initialization code.

* [PATCH] uml: rename and improve actually_do_remove()Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso2006-07-011-16/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rename actually_do_remove() to remove_files_and_dir(), make it call closedir(), make it ignore ENOENT (I see it frequently enough). ENOENT is probably due to multiple threads calling the exitcall functions together*, but fixing that is non-trivial; and ignoring it is perfectly ok in any case. * it can surely happen: last_ditch_exit() is installed as SIGTERM handler at boot, and it's not removed on thread creation. So killall vmlinux (which I do) surely causes that. I've seen also a crash which seems to do the same. Installing the handler on only the main thread would make UML do no cleanup when another thread exits, and we're not sure we want that. And mutual exclusion in that context is tricky - we can't use spinlock in code not on a kernel stack (spinlock debugging uses "current" a lot).

* [PATCH] uml: fix not_dead_yet when directory is in bad statePaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso2006-07-011-19/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The bug occurred to me when a UML left an empty ~/.uml/Sarge-norm folder - when trying to reuse not_dead_yet() failed one of its check. The comment says that's ok and means that we can take the directory, but while normally not_dead_yet() removes it and returns 0 (i.e. go on, use this), on failure it returns 0 but forgets to remove it. The fix is to remove it anytime we're going to return 0. But since "not_dead_yet" didn't make the interface so clear, causing this bug, and I couldn't find a convenient name for the mix of things it did, I split it into two parts: is_umdir_used() - returns a boolean, contains all checks of not_dead_yet() umdir_take_if_dead - tries to remove the dir unless it's used - returns whether it removed it, that is we now own it. With this changes the control flow is IMHO a bit clearer and needs less comment for control flow.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Two small TLS fixes - arch/um/os-Linux/sys-i386/tls.c uses errno and -E* so it should include errno.h __setup_host_supports_tls returns 1, but as an initcall, it should return 0 Signed-off-by: Jeff Dike <jdike@addtoit.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] uml: check for differences in host supportPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso2006-03-313-3/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If running on a host not supporting TLS (for instance 2.4) we should report that cleanly to the user, instead of printing not comprehensible "error 5" for that. Additionally, i386 and x86_64 support different ranges for user_desc->entry_number, and we must account for that; we couldn't pass ourselves -1 because we need to override previously existing TLS descriptors which glibc has possibly set, so test at startup the range to use. x86 and x86_64 existing ranges are hardcoded.

* [PATCH] uml: implement {get,set}_thread_area for i386Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso2006-03-312-2/+79
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement sys_[gs]et_thread_area and the corresponding ptrace operations for UML. This is the main chunk, additional parts follow. This implementation is now well tested and has run reliably for some time, and we've understood all the previously existing problems. Their implementation saves the new GDT content and then forwards the call to the host when appropriate, i.e. immediately when the target process is running or on context switch otherwise (i.e. on fork and on ptrace() calls). In SKAS mode, we must switch registers on each context switch (because SKAS does not switches tls_array together with current->mm). Also, added get_cpu() locking; this has been done for SKAS mode, since TT does not need it (it does not use smp_processor_id()).

* [PATCH] UML: Hotplug memory, take 2Jeff Dike2006-03-313-46/+45
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Changes since first version added check for MADV_REMOVE support on the host fixed error return botch shrunk sprintf array by one character This adds hotplug memory support to UML. The mconsole syntax is config mem=[+-]n[KMG] In other words, add or subtract some number of kilobytes, megabytes, or gigabytes. Unplugged pages are allocated and then madvise(MADV_TRUNCATE), which is a currently experimental madvise extension. These pages are tracked so they can be plugged back in later if the admin decides to give them back. The first page to be unplugged is used to keep track of about 4M of other pages. A list_head is the first thing on this page. The rest is filled with addresses of other unplugged pages. This first page is not madvised, obviously. When this page is filled, the next page is used in a similar way and linked onto a list with the first page. Etc. This whole process reverses when pages are plugged back in. When a tracking page no longer tracks any unplugged pages, then it is next in line for plugging, which is done by freeing pages back to the kernel.

* [PATCH] uml: fix thread startup raceJeff Dike2006-03-271-28/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a race in the starting of write_sigio_thread. Previously, some of the data needed by the thread was initialized after the clone. If the thread ran immediately, it would see the uninitialized data, including an empty pollfds, which would cause it to hang. We move the data initialization to before the clone, and adjust the error paths and cleanup accordingly.
