* Change the way the lcall $7,$0 is reflected to usermode. Instead ofkib2014-12-271-32/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | setting call gate, which must be 64 bit, put a code segment descriptor into ldt slot 0. This way, syscall shim does not switch temporary to 64bit trampoline, and does not create a window where signal delivery interrupts 64 bit mode (signal handler cannot return). The cost is shim running with non-zero based segment in %cs, which requires vfork() handling make more assumptions. Sponsored by: The FreeBSD Foundation MFC after: 1 week

| | | | | | | | | | | | in long mode which transfers control to 32bit code segment. Unbreak the lcall $7,$0 implementation on amd64 by putting the 64bit user code segment' selector into call gate, and execute the 64bit trampoline which converts the return frame into 32bit format and switches back to 32bit mode for executing int $0x80 trampoline. Note that all jumps over the hoops are performed in the user mode. MFC after: 1 week

* Add support for executing the FreeBSD 1/i386 a.out binaries on amd64.kib2011-04-011-0/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In particular: - implement compat shims for old stat(2) variants and ogetdirentries(2); - implement delivery of signals with ancient stack frame layout and corresponding sigreturn(2); - implement old getpagesize(2); - provide a user-mode trampoline and LDT call gate for lcall $7,$0; - port a.out image activator and connect it to the build as a module on amd64. The changes are hidden under COMPAT_43. MFC after: 1 month
* Save and restore segment registers on amd64 when entering and leavingkib2009-04-011-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | the kernel on amd64. Fill and read segment registers for mcontext and signals. Handle traps caused by restoration of the invalidated selectors. Implement user-mode creation and manipulation of the process-specific LDT descriptors for amd64, see sysarch(2). Implement support for TSS i/o port access permission bitmap for amd64. Context-switch LDT and TSS. Do not save and restore segment registers on the context switch, that is handled by kernel enter/leave trampolines now. Remove segment restore code from the signal trampolines for freebsd/amd64, freebsd/ia32 and linux/i386 for the same reason. Implement amd64-specific compat shims for sysarch. Linuxolator (temporary ?) switched to use gsbase for thread_area pointer. TODO: Currently, gdb is not adapted to show segment registers from struct reg. Also, no machine-depended ptrace command is added to set segment registers for debugged process. In collaboration with: pho Discussed with: peter Reviewed by: jhb Linuxolator tested by: dchagin

* Stop reloading %fs and %gs, since it causes the base address fromdavidxu2006-09-231-4/+0
| | | | | | | | GDT to be loaded into FS.base and GS.base, these values of course are not the values set by sysarch() with I386_SET_FSBASE and I386_SET_GSBASE, the change fixed a crash for 32bit libthr after signal handler returned and normal code is accessing thread pointer, for example: movl %gs:8, %eax.
* Initial sweep at dividing up the generic 32bit-on-64bit kernel supportpeter2003-08-221-0/+1
| | | | | | from the ia32 specific stuff. Some of this still needs to move to the MI freebsd32 area, and some needs to move to the MD area. This is still work-in-progress.
* Add BASIC i386 binary support for the amd64 kernel. This is largelypeter2003-05-141-0/+87
stolen from the ia64/ia32 code (indeed there was a repocopy), but I've redone the MD parts and added and fixed a few essential syscalls. It is sufficient to run i386 binaries like /bin/ls, /usr/bin/id (dynamic) and p4. The ia64 code has not implemented signal delivery, so I had to do that. Before you say it, yes, this does need to go in a common place. But we're in a freeze at the moment and I didn't want to risk breaking ia64. I will sort this out after the freeze so that the common code is in a common place. On the AMD64 side, this required adding segment selector context switch support and some other support infrastructure. The %fs/%gs etc code is hairy because loading %gs will clobber the kernel's current MSR_GSBASE setting. The segment selectors are not used by the kernel, so they're only changed at context switch time or when changing modes. This still needs to be optimized. Approved by: re (amd64/* blanket)
