<id>91acb21f084aa244f26839406ae7ed8aa3668058</id>
<content type='text'>
The patch to use host AIO support that I submitted early after 2.6.13 exposed
some problems in the block driver.  I have fixes for these, but am not
comfortable putting them into 2.6.14 at this late date.  So, this patch reverts
the use of host AIO.

I will resubmit the original patch, plus fixes to the driver after 2.6.14
in order to get a reasonable amount of testing before they're exposed to
the general public.

Too many people were confused by skas0 and tried using "mode=skas0". And after
all, they are right - accept this.

The old code had the IP and SP coming from the registers in the thread
struct, which are completely wrong since those are the userspace
registers.  This fixes that by pulling the correct values from the
jmp_buf in which the kernel state of each thread is stored.

UML makefiles sanitized:
 - number of generated headers reduced to 2 (from user-offsets.c and
   kernel-offsets.c resp.).  The rest is made constant and simply
   includes those two.
 - mk_... helpers are gone now that we don't need to generate these
   headers
 - arch/um/include2 removed since everything under arch/um/include/sysdep
   is constant now and symlink can point straight to source tree.
 - dependencies seriously simplified.

Explain why the casting we do to silence this warning is indeed safe.

It is because the field we're casting from, though being 64-bit wide, was filled
with a pointer in first place by ourselves.

Even if with a bit of misunderstanding, Al fixed this in commit
95608261dae863bc43292e6fbd946a3abd3aa49f.

Well, the symbol was intended to come from userspace (it exists there on normal
host), but since some hosts may miss that, using the kernel one is just as fine.
However, rename it to be named consistently with the rest.

Actually, he missed converting ELFCLASS32 to coming from kernel headers. For
consistence, add ELFCLASS64 too.
