sched: add declaration of sched_tail to sched.h

2008-02-25T15:34:17+00:00

Avoids sparse warnings:
kernel/sched.c:2170:17: warning: symbol 'schedule_tail' was not declared. Should it be static?

Avoids the need for an external declaration in arch/um/process.c

aout: suppress A.OUT library support if !CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT

2008-02-08T17:22:30+00:00

Suppress A.OUT library support if CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT is not set.

Not all architectures support the A.OUT binfmt, so the ELF binfmt should not
be permitted to go looking for A.OUT libraries to load in such a case.  Not
only that, but under such conditions A.OUT core dumps are not produced either.

To make this work, this patch also does the following:

 (1) Makes the existence of the contents of linux/a.out.h contingent on
     CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT.

 (2) Renames dump_thread() to aout_dump_thread() as it's only called by A.OUT
     core dumping code.

 (3) Moves aout_dump_thread() into asm/a.out-core.h and makes it inline.  This
     is then included only where needed.  This means that this bit of arch
     code will be stored in the appropriate A.OUT binfmt module rather than
     the core kernel.

 (4) Drops A.OUT support for Blackfin (according to Mike Frysinger it's not
     needed) and FRV.

This patch depends on the previous patch to move STACK_TOP[_MAX] out of
asm/a.out.h and into asm/processor.h as they're required whether or not A.OUT
format is available.

uml: style fixes in arch/um/kernel

2008-02-05T17:44:30+00:00

Joe Perches noticed some printks in smp.c that needed fixing.

While I was in there, I did the usual tidying in arch/um/kernel, which
should be fairly style-clean at this point:
	copyright updates
	emacs formatting comments removal
	include tidying
	style fixes

uml: remove duplicate config symbol and unused file and variables

2008-02-05T17:44:29+00:00

Fix the repetition of the NET symbol.  It was once in UML specific options and
once in networking.  I removed the first occurrence, as it makes more sense to
me to keep it only in networking.

It also removes a mostly empty file which is not used anymore and some
unused variables.

uml: use ptrace directly in libc code

2008-02-05T17:44:28+00:00

Some register accessor cleanups -
	userspace() was calling restore_registers and save_registers for no
reason, since userspace() is on the libc side of the house, and these
add no value over calling ptrace directly
	init_thread_registers and get_safe_registers were the same thing,
so init_thread_registers is gone

uml: current.h cleanup

2008-02-05T17:44:28+00:00

Tidy current-related stuff.  There was a comment in current.h saying
that current_thread was obsolete, so this patch turns all instances of
current_thread into current_thread_info().  There's some simplifying
of the result in arch/um/sys-i386/signal.c.

current.h and thread_info also get style cleanups.

uml: header untangling

2008-02-05T17:44:28+00:00

Untangle UML headers somewhat and add some includes where they were
needed explicitly, but gotten accidentally via some other header.

arch/um/include/um_uaccess.h loses asm/fixmap.h because it uses no
fixmap stuff and gains elf.h, because it needs FIXADDR_USER_*, and
archsetjmp.h, because it needs jmp_buf.

pmd_alloc_one is uninlined because it needs mm_struct, and that's
inconvenient to provide in asm-um/pgtable-3level.h.

elf_core_copy_fpregs is also uninlined from elf-i386.h and
elf-x86_64.h, which duplicated the code anyway, to
arch/um/kernel/process.c, so that the reference to current_thread
doesn't pull sched.h or anything related into asm/elf.h.

arch/um/sys-i386/ldt.c, arch/um/kernel/tlb.c and
arch/um/kernel/skas/uaccess.c got sched.h because they dereference
task_structs.  Its includes of linux and asm headers got turned from
"" to <>.

arch/um/sys-i386/bug.c gets asm/errno.h because it needs errno
constants.

asm/elf-i386 gets asm/user.h because it needs user_regs_struct.

asm/fixmap.h gets page.h because it needs PAGE_SIZE and PAGE_MASK and
system.h for BUG_ON.

asm/pgtable doesn't need sched.h.

asm/processor-generic.h defined mm_segment_t, but didn't use it.  So,
that definition is moved to uaccess.h, which defines a bunch of
mm_segment_t-related stuff.  thread_info.h uses mm_segment_t, and
includes uaccess.h, which causes a recursion.  So, the definition is
placed above the include of thread_info. in uaccess.h.  thread_info.h
also gets page.h because it needs PAGE_SIZE.

ObCheckpatchViolationJustification - I'm not adding a typedef; I'm
moving mm_segment_t from one place to another.

uml: move um_virt_to_phys

2008-02-05T17:44:28+00:00

This patchset makes UML build and run with three-level page tables on
32-bit hosts.  This is an uncommon use case, but the code here needed
fixing and cleaning up, so 32-bit three-level pages tables were tested
to make sure the changes are good.

Patch 1 - code movement
Patch 2 - header untangling
Patch 3 - style fixups in files affected so far
Patch 4 - clean up use of current.h
Patch 5 - fix sizes of types that are different between 2 and 3-level
	page tables - three-level page table support should build at
	this point
Patch 6 - tidy (i.e. eliminate much of) the code that figures out how
	big the address space is
Patch 7 - change um_virt_to_phys into virt_to_pte, clean its
	interface, and clean its (so far) one caller
Patch 8 - the stub pages are covered with a VMA, allowing some nasty
	code to be thrown out - three-level page tables now work

This patch:

um_virt_to_phys only has one user, so it can be moved to the same file
and made static.  Its declarations in pgtable.h and ksyms.c are also
gone.

current_cmd was another apparent user, but it itself isn't used, so it
is deleted.

uml: remove unused variables in the context switcher

2008-02-05T17:44:26+00:00

This patch removes a variable which was not used in two functions.  Yet
another code cleanup, nothing really significant.

Please note that I could not test this on x86_64. I don't have the
hardware for it.
