uml: activate_mm: remove the dead PF_BORROWED_MM check

2008-06-06T18:36:22+00:00

use_mm() was changed to use switch_mm() instead of activate_mm(), since then nobody calls (and nobody should call) activate_mm() with PF_BORROWED_MM bit set. As Jeff Dike pointed out, we can also remove the "old != new" check, it is always true. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov Cc: Jeff Dike Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

uml: cover stubs with a VMA

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

Give the stubs a VMA. This allows the removal of a truly nasty kludge to make sure that mm->nr_ptes was correct in exit_mmap. The underlying problem was always that the stubs, which have ptes, and thus allocated a page table, weren't covered by a VMA. This patch fixes that by using install_special_mapping in arch_dup_mmap and activate_context to create the VMA. The stubs have to be moved, since shift_arg_pages seems to assume that the stack is the only VMA present at that point during exec, and uses vma_adjust to fiddle its VMA. However, that extends the stub VMA by the amount removed from the stack VMA. To avoid this problem, the stubs were moved to a different fixed location at the start of the address space. The init_stub_pte calls were moved from init_new_context to arch_dup_mmap because I was occasionally seeing arch_dup_mmap not being called, causing exit_mmap to die. Rather than figure out what was really happening, I decided it was cleaner to just move the calls so that there's no doubt that both the pte and VMA creation happen, no matter what. arch_exit_mmap is used to clear the stub ptes at exit time. The STUB_* constants in as-layout.h no longer depend on UM_TASK_SIZE, that that definition is removed, along with the comments complaining about gcc. Because the stubs are no longer at the top of the address space, some care is needed while flushing TLBs. update_pte_range checks for addresses in the stub range and skips them. flush_thread now issues two unmaps, one for the range before STUB_START and one for the range after STUB_END.

uml: fold mmu_context_skas into mm_context

2007-10-16T16:43:06+00:00

This patch folds mmu_context_skas into struct mm_context, changing all users of these structures as needed. Signed-off-by: Jeff Dike Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

uml: style fixes pass 3

2007-10-16T16:43:05+00:00

Formatting changes in the files which have been changed in the course of folding foo_skas functions into their callers. These include: copyright updates header file trimming style fixes adding severity to printks These changes should be entirely non-functional.

uml: remove code made redundant by CHOOSE_MODE removal

2007-10-16T16:43:05+00:00

This patch makes a number of simplifications enabled by the removal of CHOOSE_MODE. There were lots of functions that looked like int foo(args){ foo_skas(args); } The bodies of foo_skas are now folded into foo, and their declarations (and sometimes entire header files) are deleted. In addition, the union uml_pt_regs, which was a union between the tt and skas register formats, is now a struct, with the tt-mode arm of the union being removed. It turns out that usr2_handler was unused, so it is gone. Signed-off-by: Jeff Dike Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

uml: throw out CHOOSE_MODE

2007-10-16T16:43:05+00:00

The next stage after removing code which depends on CONFIG_MODE_TT is removing the CHOOSE_MODE abstraction, which provided both compile-time and run-time branching to either tt-mode or skas-mode code. This patch removes choose-mode.h and all inclusions of it, and replaces all CHOOSE_MODE invocations with the skas branch. This leaves a number of trivial functions which will be dealt with in a later patch. There are some changes in the uaccess and tls support which go somewhat beyond this and eliminate some of the now-redundant functions.

uml: throw out CONFIG_MODE_TT

2007-10-16T16:43:05+00:00

This patchset throws out tt mode, which has been non-functional for a while. This is done in phases, interspersed with code cleanups on the affected files. The removal is done as follows: remove all code, config options, and files which depend on CONFIG_MODE_TT get rid of the CHOOSE_MODE macro, which decided whether to call tt-mode or skas-mode code, and replace invocations with their skas portions replace all now-trivial procedures with their skas equivalents There are now a bunch of now-redundant pieces of data structures, including mode-specific pieces of the thread structure, pt_regs, and mm_context. These are all replaced with their skas-specific contents. As part of the ongoing style compliance project, I made a style pass over all files that were changed. There are three such patches, one for each phase, covering the files affected by that phase but no later ones. I noticed that we weren't freeing the LDT state associated with a process when it exited, so that's fixed in one of the later patches. The last patch is a tidying patch which I've had for a while, but which caused inexplicable crashes under tt mode. Since that is no longer a problem, this can now go in. This patch: Start getting rid of tt mode support. This patch throws out CONFIG_MODE_TT and all config options, code, and files which depend on it. CONFIG_MODE_SKAS is gone and everything that depends on it is included unconditionally. The few changed lines are in re-written Kconfig help, lines which needed something skas-related removed from them, and a few more which weren't strictly deletions.

[PATCH] x86: PARAVIRT: add hooks to intercept mm creation and destruction

2007-05-02T17:27:14+00:00

Add hooks to allow a paravirt implementation to track the lifetime of an mm. Paravirtualization requires three hooks, but only two are needed in common code. They are: arch_dup_mmap, which is called when a new mmap is created at fork arch_exit_mmap, which is called when the last process reference to an mm is dropped, which typically happens on exit and exec. The third hook is activate_mm, which is called from the arch-specific activate_mm() macro/function, and so doesn't need stub versions for other architectures. It's called when an mm is first used.
