[PATCH] uml: clean arch_switch usage

2006-03-31T20:18:52+00:00

Call arch_switch also in switch_to_skas, even if it's, for now, a no-op for
that case (and mark this in the comment); this will change soon.

Also, arch_switch for TT mode is actually useless when the PT proxy (a
complicate debugging instrumentation for TT mode) is not enabled.  In fact, it
only calls update_debugregs, which checks debugregs_seq against seq (to check
if the registers are up-to-date - seq here means a "version number" of the
registers).

If the ptrace proxy is not enabled, debugregs_seq always stays 0 and
update_debugregs will be a no-op.  So, optimize this out (the compiler can't
do it).

Also, I've been disappointed by the fact that it would make a lot of sense if,
after calling a successful
update_debugregs(current->thread.arch.debugregs_seq),
current->thread.arch.debugregs_seq were updated with the new debugregs_seq.
But this is not done.  Is this a bug or a feature?  For all purposes, it seems
a bug (otherwise the whole mechanism does not make sense, which is also a
possibility to check), which causes some performance only problems (not
correctness), since we write_debugregs when not needed.

Also, as suggested by Jeff, remove a redundant enabling of SIGVTALRM,
comprised in the subsequent local_irq_enable().  I'm just a bit dubious if
ordering matters there...

[PATCH] uml: TT - SYSCALL_DEBUG - fix buglet introduced in cleanup

2006-02-01T16:53:22+00:00

Fixes a bug introduced in commit e32dacb9f481fd6decb41adb28e720c923d34f54 -
index is initialized based on syscall before syscall is calculated.

I'm bothering with this mainly because it gives a correct warning when the
config option is enabled, even if the code is for a almost unused debugging
option.
