do_longjmp used to be needed when UML didn't have its own implementation of
setjmp and longjmp. They came from libc, and couldn't be called directly from
kernel code, as the libc jmp_buf couldn't be imported there. do_longjmp was a
userspace function which served to provide longjmp access to kernel code.
This is gone, and a number of void * pointers can now be jmp_buf *.

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.

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.

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.

Add a separate IRQ stack. This differs from i386 in having the entire
interrupt run on a separate stack rather than starting on the normal kernel
stack and switching over once some preparation has been done. The underlying
mechanism, is of course, sigaltstack.
Another difference is that interrupts that happen in userspace are handled on
the normal kernel stack. These cause a wait wakeup instead of a signal
delivery so there is no point in trying to switch stacks for these. There's
no other stuff on the stack, so there is no extra stack consumption.
This quirk makes it possible to have the entire interrupt run on a separate
stack - process preemption (and calls to schedule()) happens on a normal
kernel stack. If we enable CONFIG_PREEMPT, this will need to be rethought.
The IRQ stack for CPU 0 is declared in the same way as the initial kernel
stack. IRQ stacks for other CPUs will be allocated dynamically.
An extra field was added to the thread_info structure. When the active
thread_info is copied to the IRQ stack, the real_thread field points back to
the original stack. This makes it easy to tell where to copy the thread_info
struct back to when the interrupt is finished. It also serves as a marker of
a nested interrupt. It is NULL for the first interrupt on the stack, and
non-NULL for any nested interrupts.
Care is taken to behave correctly if a second interrupt comes in when the
thread_info structure is being set up or taken down. I could just disable
interrupts here, but I don't feel like giving up any of the performance gained
by not flipping signals on and off.
If an interrupt comes in during these critical periods, the handler can't run
because it has no idea what shape the stack is in. So, it sets a bit for its
signal in a global mask and returns. The outer handler will deal with this
signal itself.
Atomicity is had with xchg. A nested interrupt that needs to bail out will
xchg its signal mask into pending_mask and repeat in case yet another
interrupt hit at the same time, until the mask stabilizes.
The outermost interrupt will set up the thread_info and xchg a zero into
pending_mask when it is done. At this point, nested interrupts will look at
->real_thread and see that no setup needs to be done. They can just continue
normally.
Similar care needs to be taken when exiting the outer handler. If another
interrupt comes in while it is copying the thread_info, it will drop a bit
into pending_mask. The outer handler will check this and if it is non-zero,
will loop, set up the stack again, and handle the interrupt.

i386:
Rearrange the cmpxchg code to allow atomic.h to get it without needing to
include system.h. This kills warnings in the UML build from atomic.h about
implicit declarations of cmpxchg symbols. The i386 build presumably isn't
seeing this because a separate inclusion of system.h is covering it over.
The cmpxchg stuff is moved to asm-i386/cmpxchg.h, with an include left in
system.h for the benefit of generic code which expects cmpxchg there.
Meanwhile, atomic.h includes cmpxchg.h.
This causes no noticable damage to the i386 build.
x86_64:
Move cmpxchg into its own header. atomic.h already included system.h, so
this is changed to include cmpxchg.h.
This is purely cleanup - it's not fixing any warnings - so if the x86_64
system.h isn't considered as cleanup-worthy as i386, then this can be
dropped.
It causes no noticable damage to the x86_64 build.

More trimming of the page fault path.
Permissions are passed around in a single int rather than one bit per
int. The permission values are copied from libc so that they can be
passed to mmap and mprotect without any further conversion.
The register sets used by do_syscall_stub and copy_context_skas0 are
initialized once, at boot time, rather than once per call.
wait_stub_done checks whether it is getting the signals it expects by
comparing the wait status to a mask containing bits for the signals of
interest rather than comparing individually to the signal numbers. It
also has one check for a wait failure instead of two. The caller is
expected to do the initial continue of the stub. This gets rid of an
argument and some logic. The fname argument is gone, as that can be
had from a stack trace.
user_signal() is collapsed into userspace() as it is basically one or
two lines of code afterwards.
The physical memory remapping stuff is gone, as it is unused.

arch_exit_mmap, which is called when the last process reference to an

The third hook is activate_mm, which is called from the arch-specific

thread id during clone and stuffing it into the child during each context

The %fs value is stored separately in the thread structure since the host
controls what effect it has on the actual register file. The host also needs
to store it in its own thread struct, so we need the value kept outside the

arch_prctl_skas was fixed to call PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL appropriately. There is
some saving and restoring of registers in the ARCH_SET_* cases so that the
correct set of registers are changed on the host and restored to the process
when it runs again.

initialize a new stack is to set it as the alternate signal stack and take a
signal. The signal handler does whatever initialization is needed and jumps
back to the original stack, where the fork processing is finished. The basic
context switching mechanism is a jmp_buf for each process. You switch to a
new process by longjmping to its jmp_buf.
Now that UML has its own implementation of setjmp and longjmp, and I can poke
around inside a jmp_buf without fear that libc will change the structure, a
much simpler mechanism is possible. The jmpbuf can simply be initialized by
hand.
This eliminates -
the need to set up and remove the alternate signal stack
sending and handling a signal
the signal blocking needed around the stack switching, since
there is no stack switching
setting up the jmp_buf needed to jump back to the original
stack after the new one is set up
In addition, since jmp_buf is now defined by UML, and not by libc, it can be
embedded in the thread struct. This makes it unnecessary to have it exist on
the stack, where it used to be. It also simplifies interfaces, since the
switch jmp_buf used to be a void * inside the thread struct, and functions
which took it as an argument needed to define a jmp_buf variable and assign it
from the void *.

The UML/x86_64 headers were missing ptrace support for some segment registers.
The underlying problem was that the x86_64 kernel uses user_regs_struct
rather than the ptrace register definitions in ptrace. This patch switches
UML/x86_64 to using user_regs_struct for its definitions of the host's
registers.

Include the host architecture's ptrace-abi.h instead of ptrace.h.
There was some cpp mangling of names around the ptrace.h include to avoid
symbol clashes between UML and the host architecture. Most of these can go
away. The exception is struct pt_regs, which is convenient to have in
userspace, but must be renamed in order that UML can define its own.
ptrace-x86_64.h needed to have some now-obsolete cpp cruft and a declaration
removed.

The KSTK_* macros used an inordinate amount of stack. In order to overcome
an impedance mismatch between their interface, which just returns a single
register value, and the interface of get_thread_regs, which took a full
pt_regs, the implementation created an on-stack pt_regs, filled it in, and
returned one field. do_task_stat calls KSTK_* twice, resulting in two
local pt_regs, blowing out the stack.
This patch changes the interface (and name) of get_thread_regs to just
return a single register from a jmp_buf.
The include of archsetjmp.h" in registers.h to get the definition of
jmp_buf exposed a bogus include of <setjmp.h> in start_up.c. <setjmp.h>
shouldn't be used anywhere any more since UML uses the klibc
setjmp/longjmp.

One of the changes necessary for shared page tables is to standardize the
pxx_page macros. pte_page and pmd_page have always returned the struct
page associated with their entry, while pte_page_kernel and pmd_page_kernel
have returned the kernel virtual address. pud_page and pgd_page, on the
other hand, return the kernel virtual address.
Shared page tables needs pud_page and pgd_page to return the actual page
structures. There are very few actual users of these functions, so it is
simple to standardize their usage.
Since this is basic cleanup, I am submitting these changes as a standalone
patch. Per Hugh Dickins' comments about it, I am also changing the
pxx_page_kernel macros to pxx_page_vaddr to clarify their meaning.

Make __copy_*_user_inatomic really atomic to avoid "Sleeping function called in
atomic context" warnings, especially from futex code.
This is made by adding another kmap_atomic slot and making copy_*_user_skas
use kmap_atomic; also copy_*_user() becomes atomic, but that's true and is not
a problem for i386 (and we can always add might_sleep there as done
elsewhere). For TT mode kmap is not used, so there's no need for this.
I've had to use another slot since both KM_USER0 and KM_USER1 are used
elsewhere and could cause conflicts. Till now we reused the kmap_atomic slot
list from the subarch, but that's not needed as that list must contain the
common ones (used by generic code) + the ones used in architecture specific
code (and Uml till now used none); so I've taken the i386 one after comparing
it with ones from other archs, and added KM_UML_USERCOPY.

If running on a host not supporting TLS (for instance 2.4) we should report
that cleanly to the user, instead of printing not comprehensible "error 5" for
that.
Additionally, i386 and x86_64 support different ranges for
user_desc->entry_number, and we must account for that; we couldn't pass
ourselves -1 because we need to override previously existing TLS descriptors
which glibc has possibly set, so test at startup the range to use.
x86 and x86_64 existing ranges are hardcoded.

Implement sys_[gs]et_thread_area and the corresponding ptrace operations for
UML. This is the main chunk, additional parts follow. This implementation is
now well tested and has run reliably for some time, and we've understood all
the previously existing problems.
Their implementation saves the new GDT content and then forwards the call to
the host when appropriate, i.e. immediately when the target process is
running or on context switch otherwise (i.e. on fork and on ptrace() calls).
In SKAS mode, we must switch registers on each context switch (because SKAS
does not switches tls_array together with current->mm).
Also, added get_cpu() locking; this has been done for SKAS mode, since TT does
not need it (it does not use smp_processor_id()).

ldt-{i386,x86_64}.h is made of two different parts - some code for parsing of
LDT descriptors, which is arch-dependant, and the code to handle uml_ldt_t (an
LDT block inside UML), which is mostly arch-independant (among x86 and x86_64,
at least).
Join the common part in a single file (ldt.h) and split the rest away
(host_ldt-{i386,x86_64}.h).
This is needed because processor.h, with next patches, will start including
the LDT descriptor parsing macros in host_ldt.h, but it can't include ldt.h
because it uses semaphores (and to define semaphores one must first include
processor.h!).

Implement SMP alternatives, i.e. switching at runtime between different
code versions for UP and SMP. The code can patch both SMP->UP and UP->SMP.
The UP->SMP case is useful for CPU hotplug.
With CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG enabled the code switches to UP at boot time and
when the number of CPUs goes down to 1, and switches to SMP when the number
of CPUs goes up to 2.
Without CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG or on non-SMP-capable systems the code is
patched once at boot time (if needed) and the tables are released
afterwards.
The changes in detail:
* The current alternatives bits are moved to a separate file,
the SMP alternatives code is added there.
* The patch adds some new elf sections to the kernel:
.smp_altinstructions
like .altinstructions, also contains a list
of alt_instr structs.
.smp_altinstr_replacement
like .altinstr_replacement, but also has some space to
save original instruction before replaving it.
.smp_locks
list of pointers to lock prefixes which can be nop'ed
out on UP.
The first two are used to replace more complex instruction
sequences such as spinlocks and semaphores. It would be possible
to deal with the lock prefixes with that as well, but by handling
them as special case the table sizes become much smaller.
* The sections are page-aligned and padded up to page size, so they
can be free if they are not needed.
* Splitted the code to release init pages to a separate function and
use it to release the elf sections if they are unused.

Make UML share the underlying cpu-specific tuning done on i386.
Actually, for now many config options aren't used a lot - but that can be done
later. Also, UML relies on GCC optimization for things like memcpy and such
more than i386, so specifying the correct -march and -mtune should be enough.
Later, we may want to correct some other stuff.
For instance, since FPU context switching, for us, is done (at least
partially, i.e. between our kernelspace and userspace) by the host, we may
allow usage of FPU operations by GCC. This doesn't hold for kernelspace vs.
kernelspace, but we don't support preemption.

Convert those common loops using page_table_lock on the outside and
pte_offset_map within to use just pte_offset_map_lock within instead.
These all hold mmap_sem (some exclusively, some not), so at no level can a
page table be whipped away from beneath them. But whereas pte_alloc loops
tested with the "atomic" pmd_present, these loops are testing with pmd_none,
which on i386 PAE tests both lower and upper halves.
That's now unsafe, so add a cast into pmd_none to test only the vital lower
half: we lose a little sensitivity to a corrupt middle directory, but not
enough to worry about. It appears that i386 and UML were the only

This patch implements a stack trace for a thread, not unlike sysrq-t does.
The advantage to this is that a break point can be placed on showreqs, so that
upon showing the stack, you jump immediately into the debugger. While sysrq-t
does the same thing, sysrq-t shows *all* threads stacks. It also doesn't work
right now. In the future, I thought it might be acceptable to make this show
all pids stacks, but perhaps leaving well enough alone and just using sysrq-t
would be okay. For now, upon receiving the stack command, UML switches
context to that thread, dumps its registers, and then switches context back to
the original thread. Since UML compacts all threads into one of 4 host
threads, this sort of mechanism could be expanded in the future to include
other debugging helpers that sysrq does not cover.
Note by jdike - The main benefit to this is that it brings an arbitrary thread
back into context, where it can be examined by gdb. The fact that it dumps it
stack is secondary. This provides the capability to examine a sleeping
thread, which has existed in tt mode, but not in skas mode until now.
Also, the other threads, that sysrq doesn't cover, can be gdb-ed directly
anyway.

Turns out that, for UML, a *lot* of VM-related trivial functions are not
inlined but rather normal functions.
In other sections of UML code, this is justified by having files which
interact with the host and cannot therefore include kernel headers, but in
this case there's no such justification.
I've had to turn many of them to macros because of missing declarations. While
doing this, I've decided to reuse some already existing macros.

The size of auxiliary vector is fixed at 42 in linux/sched.h. But it isn't
very obvious when looking at linux/elf.h. This patch adds AT_VECTOR_SIZE
so that we can change it if necessary when a new vector is added.
Because of include file ordering problems, doing this necessitated the
extraction of the AT_* symbols into a standalone header file.

ATM pthread_cond_signal is unnecessarily slow, because it wakes one waiter
(which at least on UP usually means an immediate context switch to one of
the waiter threads). This waiter wakes up and after a few instructions it
attempts to acquire the cv internal lock, but that lock is still held by
the thread calling pthread_cond_signal. So it goes to sleep and eventually
the signalling thread is scheduled in, unlocks the internal lock and wakes
the waiter again.
Now, before 2003-09-21 NPTL was using FUTEX_REQUEUE in pthread_cond_signal
to avoid this performance issue, but it was removed when locks were
redesigned to the 3 state scheme (unlocked, locked uncontended, locked
contended).
Following scenario shows why simply using FUTEX_REQUEUE in
pthread_cond_signal together with using lll_mutex_unlock_force in place of
lll_mutex_unlock is not enough and probably why it has been disabled at
that time:
The number is value in cv->__data.__lock.
thr1 thr2 thr3
0 pthread_cond_wait
1 lll_mutex_lock (cv->__data.__lock)
0 lll_mutex_unlock (cv->__data.__lock)
0 lll_futex_wait (&cv->__data.__futex, futexval)
0 pthread_cond_signal
1 lll_mutex_lock (cv->__data.__lock)
1 pthread_cond_signal
2 lll_mutex_lock (cv->__data.__lock)
2 lll_futex_wait (&cv->__data.__lock, 2)
2 lll_futex_requeue (&cv->__data.__futex, 0, 1, &cv->__data.__lock)
# FUTEX_REQUEUE, not FUTEX_CMP_REQUEUE
2 lll_mutex_unlock_force (cv->__data.__lock)
0 cv->__data.__lock = 0
0 lll_futex_wake (&cv->__data.__lock, 1)
1 lll_mutex_lock (cv->__data.__lock)
0 lll_mutex_unlock (cv->__data.__lock)
# Here, lll_mutex_unlock doesn't know there are threads waiting
# on the internal cv's lock
Now, I believe it is possible to use FUTEX_REQUEUE in pthread_cond_signal,
but it will cost us not one, but 2 extra syscalls and, what's worse, one of
these extra syscalls will be done for every single waiting loop in
pthread_cond_*wait.
We would need to use lll_mutex_unlock_force in pthread_cond_signal after
requeue and lll_mutex_cond_lock in pthread_cond_*wait after lll_futex_wait.
Another alternative is to do the unlocking pthread_cond_signal needs to do
(the lock can't be unlocked before lll_futex_wake, as that is racy) in the
kernel.
I have implemented both variants, futex-requeue-glibc.patch is the first
one and futex-wake_op{,-glibc}.patch is the unlocking inside of the kernel.
The kernel interface allows userland to specify how exactly an unlocking
operation should look like (some atomic arithmetic operation with optional
constant argument and comparison of the previous futex value with another
constant).
It has been implemented just for ppc*, x86_64 and i?86, for other
architectures I'm including just a stub header which can be used as a
starting point by maintainers to write support for their arches and ATM
will just return -ENOSYS for FUTEX_WAKE_OP. The requeue patch has been
(lightly) tested just on x86_64, the wake_op patch on ppc64 kernel running
32-bit and 64-bit NPTL and x86_64 kernel running 32-bit and 64-bit NPTL.
With the following benchmark on UP x86-64 I get:
for i in nptl-orig nptl-requeue nptl-wake_op; do echo time elf/ld.so --library-path .:$i /tmp/bench; \
for j in 1 2; do echo ( time elf/ld.so --library-path .:$i /tmp/bench ) 2>&1; done; done

The benchmark is at:

Older futex-requeue-glibc.patch version is at:

Older futex-wake_op-glibc.patch version is at:
http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2005-03/txt00003.txt
Will post a new version (just x86-64 fixes so that the patch
applies against pthread_cond_signal.S) to libc-hacker ml soon.
Attached is the kernel FUTEX_WAKE_OP patch as well as a simple-minded
testcase that will not test the atomicity of the operation, but at least
check if the threads that should have been woken up are woken up and
whether the arithmetic operation in the kernel gave the expected results.

There is a lot of code which is duplicated between the 2 and 3 level
implementation, with the only difference that the 3-level implementation is a
bit more generalized (instead of accessing directly pte_t.pte, it uses the
appropriate access macros).
So this code is joined together.
As obvious, a "core code nice cleanup" is not a "stability-friendly patch" so
usual care applies.
