2006-01-08[PATCH] Add block_device_operations.getgeo block device methodChristoph Hellwig
HDIO_GETGEO is implemented in most block drivers, and all of them have to duplicate the code to copy the structure to userspace, as well as getting the start sector. This patch moves that to common code [1] and adds a ->getgeo method to fill out the raw kernel hd_geometry structure. For many drivers this means ->ioctl can go away now. [1] the s390 block drivers are odd in this respect. xpram sets ->start to 4 always which seems more than odd, and the dasd driver shifts the start offset around, probably because of it's non-standard sector size.

2006-01-06[PATCH] uml: capture printk output for mconsole stackJeff Dike
The stack command now sends the printk output back to the mconsole client. This is done by registering a special console for the mconsole driver. This receives all printk output. Normally, it is ignored, but when a stack command is issued, any printk output will be sent back to the client. This will capture any printk output, whether it is stack output or not, since we can't tell the difference.

2006-01-06[PATCH] uml: umid cleanupJeff Dike
This patch cleans up the umid code: - The only_if_set argument to get_umid is gone. - get_umid returns an empty string rather than NULL if there is no umid. - umid_is_random is gone since its users went away. - Some printfs were turned into printks because the code runs late enough that printk is working. - Error paths were cleaned up. - Some functions now return an error and let the caller print the error message rather than printing it themselves. This eliminates the practice of passing a pointer to printf or printk in, depending on where in the boot process we are. - Major tidying of not_dead_yet - mostly error path cleanup, plus a comment explaining why it doesn't react to errors the way you might expect. - Calls to os_* interfaces that were moved under os are changed back to their native libc forms. - snprintf, strlcpy, and their bounds-checking friends are used more often, replacing by-hand bounds checking in some places.

2006-01-06[PATCH] uml: Simplify console opening/closing and irq registrationJeff Dike
This patch simplifies the opening and closing of host console devices and the registration and deregistration of IRQs. The intent is to make it obvious that an IRQ can't exist without an open file descriptor. chan_enable will now open the channel, and when both opening and IRQ registration are desired, this should be used. Opening only is done for the initial console, so that interface still needs to exist. The free_irqs_later interface is now gone. It was intended to avoid freeing an IRQ while it was being processed. It did this, but it didn't eliminate the possiblity of free_irq being called from an interrupt, which is bad. In its place is a list of irqs to be freed, which is processed by the signal handler just before exiting. close_one_chan now disables irqs. When a host device disappears, it is just closed, and that disables IRQs. The device id registered with the IRQ is now the chan structure, not the tty. This is because the interrupt arrives on a descriptor associated with the channel. This caused equivalent changes in the arguments to line_timer_cb. line_disable is gone since it is not used any more. The count field in the line structure is gone. tty->count is used instead. The complicated logic in sigio_handler with freeing IRQs when necessary and making sure its idea of the next irq is correct is now much simpler. The irq list can't be rearranged underneath it, so it is now a simple list walk.

2005-11-13[PATCH] uml: fix mcast network driver error handlingPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
printk clears the host errno (I verified this in debugging and it's reasonable enough, given that it ends via a write call on some fd, especially since printk() goes on /dev/tty0 which is often the host stdout). So save errno earlier. There's no reason to change the printk calls to use -err rather than errno - the assignment can't clear errno. And in the first failure path, we used to return 0 too (and this time more clearly), which is totally wrong. 0 is a success fd, which is then registered and gives a "registering fd twice" warning. Finally, fix up some whitespace.

Commit 44456d37b59d8e541936ed26d8b6e08d27e88ac1, between 2.6.13-rc3 and -rc4, was a "nice cleanup" which broke something. Revert the offending part. It broke because: a) because this part doesn't fall under the description b) the author didn't know what he was doing here c) the author didn't try to compile the existing code and see that it worked perfectly. d) the author didn't ask us what was happening e) you didn't either, and somebody there should have learned that UML is a bit different. In fact, UML is special in linking to host libc and using its includes. In particular, since host includes always define both __BIG_ENDIAN and __LITTLE_ENDIAN, ntohll() macros started thinking to be in a big-endian world; and on-disk compatibility was broken. Many thanks go to Nix for reporting the problem and correctly diagnosing an endianness problem. Btw, this patch restores the previous code, which worked; but the definitions would be uncorrect if used in kernelspace files. Next patch addresses that.

2005-09-17[PATCH] uml: preserve errno in error pathsJeff Dike
The poster child for this patch is the third tuntap_user hunk. When an ioctl fails, it properly closes the opened file descriptor and returns. However, the close resets errno to 0, and the 'return errno' that follows returns 0 rather than the value that ioctl set. This caused the caller to believe that the device open succeeded and had opened file descriptor 0, which caused no end of interesting behavior. The rest of this patch is a pass through the UML sources looking for places where errno could be reset before being passed back out. A common culprit is printk, which could call write, being called before errno is returned. In some cases, where the code ends up being much smaller, I just deleted the printk. There was another case where a caller of run_helper looked at errno after a failure, rather than the return value of run_helper, which was the errno value that it wanted.

2005-09-17[PATCH] uml: breakpoint an arbitrary threadJeff Dike
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.

This adds AIO support to the ubd driver. The driver breaks a struct request into IO requests to the host, based on the hardware segments in the request and on any COW blocks covered by the request. The ubd IO thread is gone, since there is now an equivalent thread in the AIO module. There is provision for multiple outstanding requests now. Requests aren't retired until all pieces of it have been completed. The AIO requests have a shared count, which is decremented as IO operations come in until it reaches 0.

This cleans up the error path in ubd_open, causing it now to call ubd_close appropriately when something fails. Signed-off-by: Jeff Dike <jdike@addtoit.com> Cc: Paolo Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2005-09-05[PATCH] uml: fix SIGWINCH handler race while waiting for signals.Bodo Stroesser
If a SIGWINCH comes in, while winch_thread() isn't waiting in wait(), winch_thread could miss signals. It isn't very probable, that anyone will see this causing trouble, as it would need a very special timing, that a missed SIGWINCH results in a wrong window size. So, this is a minor problem. But why not fix, as it can be done so easy?

2005-08-27[PATCH] mmaper_kern.c fixes [buffer overruns]Al Viro
- copy_from_user() can fail; ->write() must check its return value. - severe buffer overruns both in ->read() and ->write() - lseek to the end (i.e. to mmapper_size) and if (count + *ppos > mmapper_size) count = count + *ppos - mmapper_size; will do absolutely nothing. Then it will call copy_to_user(buf,&v_buf[*ppos],count); with obvious results (similar for ->write()). Fixed by turning read to simple_read_from_buffer() and by doing normal limiting of count in ->write(). - gratitious lock_kernel() in ->mmap() - it's useless there. - lots of gratuitous includes.

2005-07-28[PATCH] uml: avoid unnecessary pcap rebuildPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso
Just a Kbuild subtlety, not listing a target file inside targets causes it to be rebuilt each time, and as a consequence everything depending on it is rebuilt.
