[PATCH] uml: make execvp safe for our usage

2006-11-25T21:28:34Z

Reimplement execvp for our purposes - after we call fork() it is fundamentally unsafe to use the kernel allocator - current is not valid there. So we simply pass to our modified execvp() a preallocated buffer. This fixes a real bug and works very well in testing (I've seen indirectly warning messages from the forked thread - they went on the pipe connected to its stdout and where read as a number by UML, when calling read_output(). I verified the obtained number corresponded to "BUG:"). The added use of __cant_sleep() is not a new bug since __cant_sleep() is already used in the same function - passing an atomicity parameter would be better but it would require huge change, stating that this function must not be called in atomic context and can sleep is a better idea (will make sure of this gradually).

[PATCH] uml: mark some tt-mode code

2006-09-27T15:26:16Z

Mark a symbol and file as being tt-mode only. This shrinks the binary slightly when tt mode support is compiled out and makes it easier to identity stuff when tt mode is removed. Signed-off-by: Jeff Dike Cc: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] uml: implement {get,set}_thread_area for i386

2006-03-31T20:18:52Z

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: separate libc-dependent umid code

2006-01-06T16:33:47Z

I reworked Gennady's umid OS abstraction patch because the code shouldn't be moved entirely to os. As it turns out, I moved most of it anyway. This patch is the minimal one needed to move the code and have it work. It turns out that the concept of the umid is OS-independent, but almost everything else about the implementation is OS-dependent. This is code movement without cleanup - a follow-on patch tidies everything up without shuffling code around.
