[PATCH] uml: remove 2_5compat.h

2005-05-28T23:46:11+00:00

Remove old useless header that was used in Ye Olde Times during 2.4->2.5
porting to abstract differences.  It's definitions are no more used anyway, so
let's finally kill it.

[PATCH] uml: Fix process exit race

2005-05-07T05:09:30+00:00

tt-mode closes switch_pipes in exit_thread_tt and kills processes in
switch_to_tt, if the exit_state is EXIT_DEAD or EXIT_ZOMBIE.

In very rare cases the exiting process can be scheduled out after having set
exit_state and closed switch_pipes (from release_task it calls proc_pid_flush,
which might sleep).  If this process is to be restarted, UML failes in
switch_to_tt with:

   write of switch_pipe failed, err = 9

We fix this by closing switch_pipes not in exit_thread_tt, but later in
release_thread_tt.  Additionally, we set switch_pipe[0] = 0 after closing.
switch_to_tt must not kill "from" process depending on its exit_state, but
must kill it after release_thread was processed only, so it examines
switch_pipe[0] for its decision.

[PATCH] uml: S390 preparation, arch_align_stack

2005-05-07T05:09:30+00:00

Only x86 and x86_64 use arch_align_stack(), all other subarches have:

 #define arch_align_stack(x) (x)

So, if this definition is found, UML's own arch_align_stack() should be
skipped.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

2005-04-16T22:20:36+00:00

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!
