restore sigcontext is taking a DNA exception while restoring FP context
from the user stack, during the sigreturn. Appended patch fixes it by
doing clts() if the app doesn't touch FP during the signal handler
execution. This will stop generating a DNA, during the fxrstor in the
sigreturn.
This improves 64-bit lat_sig numbers by ~30% on my core2 platform.

[ jdike - Pushing Chuck's patch - see
http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/9/16/261 for some history and a test
program. UML is also broken without this patch - its processes get
SIGBUS from the corrupt 6th argument to mmap being interpretted as a
file offset ]
When the 32-bit vDSO is used to make a system call, the %ebp register for
the 6th syscall arg has to be loaded from the user stack (where it's pushed
by the vDSO user code). The native i386 kernel always does this before
stopping for syscall tracing, so %ebp can be seen and modified via ptrace
to access the 6th syscall argument. The x86-64 kernel fails to do this,
presenting the stack address to ptrace instead. This makes the %rbp value
seen by 64-bit ptrace of a 32-bit process, and the %ebp value seen by a
32-bit caller of ptrace, both differ from the native i386 behavior.
This patch fixes the problem by putting the word loaded from the user stack
into %rbp before calling syscall_trace_enter, and reloading the 6th syscall
argument from there afterwards (so ptrace can change it). This makes the
behavior match that of i386 kernels.

The addr argument to PTRACE_GET_THREAD_AREA and PTRACE_SET_THREAD_AREA is
not a magic constant. It's derived from the segment register values being
used, which are computed originally from the index used with set_thread_area.
The value does not need to match what a native i386 kernel would accept.
It needs to match the segment selectors that can actually be in use in this
32-bit process. The 64-bit ptrace support for PTRACE_GET_THREAD_AREA
(normally used only on 32-bit processes) is correct, but the 32-bit emulation
of ptrace is broken.

This reverts commit 2e1c49db4c640b35df13889b86b9d62215ade4b6.
First off, testing in Fedora has shown it to cause boot failures,
bisected down by Martin Ebourne, and reported by Dave Jobes. So the
commit will likely be reverted in the 2.6.23 stable kernels.
Secondly, in the 2.6.24 model, x86-64 has now grown support for
SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, which disables the relevant code anyway, so while the
bug is not visible any more, it's become invisible due to the code just
being irrelevant and no longer enabled on the only architecture that
this ever affected.

This patch adds the symbol "init_level4_pgt" to the vmcoreinfo data so
that makedumpfile (dump filtering command) supports x86_64 sparsemem
kernel of linux-2.6.24.
makedumpfile creates a small dumpfile by excluding unnecessary pages for
the analysis. It checks attributes in page structures and distinguishes
necessary pages and unnecessary ones. To check them, makedumpfile gets
the vmcoreinfo data which has the minimum debugging information only for
dump filtering.
For older x86_64 kernel (linux-2.6.23 or before), makedumpfile translates
the virtual address of page structure into physical address by subtracting
PAGE_OFFSET from virtual address, but this translation isn't effective for
linux-2.6.24 sparsemem kernel, because its page structures are in virtual
memmap area. makedumpfile should translate their virtual address by 4-levels
paging and it needs the symbol "init_level4_pgt".

The kernel only ever supports 1 version of the boot protocol
so there is no need to check the boot protocol revision to
see if a feature is supported.
Both x86 and x86_64 support the same boot protocol so we need
to implement the KEEP_SEGMENTS on x86_64 as well. It isn't
just paravirt bootloaders that could use this functionality.

Secondly, the actual definition has this as a SHARED_ALIGNED, so the

The patch breaks smp_ops and needs to be reverted. The solution to

We use signed values for limit checking since the values can go
negative under certain circumstances. However, sizeof() is unsigned
and forces the comparison to be unsigned, so move the comparison into
the heap_free() macros so we can ensure it is a signed comparison.
