In some places, particularly drivers and __init code, the init utsns is the
appropriate one to use. This patch replaces those with a the init_utsname
helper.
Changes: Removed several uses of init_utsname(). Hope I picked all the
right ones in net/ipv4/ipconfig.c. These are now changed to
utsname() (the per-process namespace utsname) in the previous
patch (2/7)

This patch adds a nsproxy structure to the task struct. Later patches will
move the fs namespace pointer into this structure, and introduce a new utsname
namespace into the nsproxy.
The vserver and openvz functionality, then, would be implemented in large part
by virtualizing/isolating more and more resources into namespaces, each
contained in the nsproxy.

As part of an SMP cleanliness pass over UML, I consted a bunch of
structures in order to not have to document their locking. One of these
structures was a struct tty_operations. In order to const it in UML
without introducing compiler complaints, the declaration of
tty_set_operations needs to be changed, and then all of its callers need to
be fixed.
This patch declares all struct tty_operations in the tree as const. In all
cases, they are static and used only as input to tty_set_operations. As an
extra check, I ran an i386 allyesconfig build which produced no extra
warnings.
53 drivers are affected. I checked the history of a bunch of them, and in
most cases, there have been only a handful of maintenance changes in the
last six months. serial_core.c was the busiest one that I looked at.

This is an updated version of Eric Biederman's is_init() patch.
(http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/2/6/280). It applies cleanly to 2.6.18-rc3 and
replaces a few more instances of ->pid == 1 with is_init().
Further, is_init() checks pid and thus removes dependency on Eric's other
patches for now.
Eric's original description:
There are a lot of places in the kernel where we test for init
because we give it special properties. Most significantly init
must not die. This results in code all over the kernel test
->pid == 1.
Introduce is_init to capture this case.
With multiple pid spaces for all of the cases affected we are
looking for only the first process on the system, not some other
process that has pid == 1.

Mechanical, hopefully non-functional changes stemming from
setup_etheraddr always succeeding now that it always assigns a MAC,
either from the command line or generated randomly:
the test of the return of setup_etheraddr is removed, and code
dependent on it succeeding is now unconditional
setup_etheraddr can now be made void
struct uml_net.have_mac is now always 1, so tests of it can be
similarly removed, and uses of it can be replaced with 1
struct uml_net.have_mac is no longer used, so it can be removed
struct uml_net_private.have_mac is copied from struct uml_net, so
it is always 1
tests of uml_net_private.have_mac can be removed
uml_net_private.have_mac can now be removed
the only call to dev_ip_addr was removed, so it can be deleted
It also turns out that setup_etheraddr is called only once, from the same
file, so it can be static and its declaration removed from net_kern.h.
Similarly, set_ether_mac is defined and called only from one file.
Finally, setup_etheraddr and set_ether_mac were moved to avoid needing forward
declarations.

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.

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 *.

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

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

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.

- 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.

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.

One of the changes necessary for shared page tables is to standardize the
pxx_page macros. pte_page and pmd_page have always returned the struct
page associated with their entry, while pte_page_kernel and pmd_page_kernel
have returned the kernel virtual address. pud_page and pgd_page, on the
other hand, return the kernel virtual address.
Shared page tables needs pud_page and pgd_page to return the actual page
structures. There are very few actual users of these functions, so it is
simple to standardize their usage.
Since this is basic cleanup, I am submitting these changes as a standalone
patch. Per Hugh Dickins' comments about it, I am also changing the
pxx_page_kernel macros to pxx_page_vaddr to clarify their meaning.

The latest toolchains can produce a new ELF section in DSOs and
dynamically-linked executables. The new section ".gnu.hash" replaces
".hash", and allows for more efficient runtime symbol lookups by the
dynamic linker. The new ld option --hash-style={sysv|gnu|both} controls
whether to produce the old ".hash", the new ".gnu.hash", or both. In some
new systems such as Fedora Core 6, gcc by default passes --hash-style=gnu
to the linker, so that a standard invocation of "gcc -shared" results in
producing a DSO with only ".gnu.hash". The new ".gnu.hash" sections need
to be dealt with the same way as ".hash" sections in all respects; only the
dynamic linker cares about their contents. To work with older dynamic
linkers (i.e. preexisting releases of glibc), a binary must have the old
".hash" section. The --hash-style=both option produces binaries that a new
dynamic linker can use more efficiently, but an old dynamic linker can
still handle.
The new section runs afoul of the custom linker scripts used to build vDSO
images for the kernel. On ia64, the failure mode for this is a boot-time
panic because the vDSO's PT_IA_64_UNWIND segment winds up ill-formed.
This patch addresses the problem in two ways.
First, it mentions ".gnu.hash" in all the linker scripts alongside ".hash".
This produces correct vDSO images with --hash-style=sysv (or old tools),
with --hash-style=gnu, or with --hash-style=both.
Second, it passes the --hash-style=sysv option when building the vDSO
images, so that ".gnu.hash" is not actually produced. This is the most
conservative choice for compatibility with any old userland. There is some
concern that some ancient glibc builds (though not any known old production
system) might choke on --hash-style=both binaries. The optimizations
provided by the new style of hash section do not really matter for a DSO
with a tiny number of symbols, as the vDSO has. If someone wants to use
=gnu or =both for their vDSO builds and worry less about that
compatibility, just change the option and the linker script changes will
make any choice work fine.

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.

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).

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.

Make __copy_*_user_inatomic really atomic to avoid "Sleeping function called in
atomic context" warnings, especially from futex code.
This is made by adding another kmap_atomic slot and making copy_*_user_skas
use kmap_atomic; also copy_*_user() becomes atomic, but that's true and is not
a problem for i386 (and we can always add might_sleep there as done
elsewhere). For TT mode kmap is not used, so there's no need for this.
I've had to use another slot since both KM_USER0 and KM_USER1 are used
elsewhere and could cause conflicts. Till now we reused the kmap_atomic slot
list from the subarch, but that's not needed as that list must contain the
common ones (used by generic code) + the ones used in architecture specific
code (and Uml till now used none); so I've taken the i386 one after comparing
it with ones from other archs, and added KM_UML_USERCOPY.

-mm in combination with an FC5 init started dying with 'stderr=1' because init
didn't like the lack of /dev/console and exited. The problem was that the
stderr console, which is intended to dump printk output to the terminal before
the regular console is initialized, isn't a tty, and so can't make
/dev/console operational.
However, since it is registered first, the normal console, when it is
registered, doesn't become the preferred console, and isn't attached to
/dev/console. Thus, /dev/console is never operational.
This patch makes the stderr console unregister itself in an initcall, which is
late enough that the normal console is registered. When that happens, the
normal console will become the preferred console and will be able to run
/dev/console.

This patch-queue improves the generic IRQ layer to be truly generic, by adding
various abstractions and features to it, without impacting existing
functionality.
While the queue can be best described as "fix and improve everything in the
generic IRQ layer that we could think of", and thus it consists of many
smaller features and lots of cleanups, the one feature that stands out most is
the new 'irq chip' abstraction.
The irq-chip abstraction is about describing and coding and IRQ controller
driver by mapping its raw hardware capabilities [and quirks, if needed] in a
straightforward way, without having to think about "IRQ flow"
(level/edge/etc.) type of details.
This stands in contrast with the current 'irq-type' model of genirq
architectures, which 'mixes' raw hardware capabilities with 'flow' details.
The patchset supports both types of irq controller designs at once, and
converts i386 and x86_64 to the new irq-chip design.
As a bonus side-effect of the irq-chip approach, chained interrupt controllers
(master/slave PIC constructs, etc.) are now supported by design as well.
The end result of this patchset intends to be simpler architecture-level code
and more consolidation between architectures.
We reused many bits of code and many concepts from Russell King's ARM IRQ
layer, the merging of which was one of the motivations for this patchset.
This patch:
rename desc->handler to desc->chip.
Originally i did not want to do this, because it's a big patch. But having
both "desc->handler", "desc->handle_irq" and "action->handler" caused a
large degree of confusion and made the code appear alot less clean than it
truly is.
I have also attempted a dual approach as well by introducing a
desc->chip alias - but that just wasnt robust enough and broke
frequently.
So lets get over with this quickly. The conversion was done automatically
via scripts and converts all the code in the kernel.
This renaming patch is the first one amongst the patches, so that the
remaining patches can stay flexible and can be merged and split up
without having some big monolithic patch act as a merge barrier.
