* [PATCH] tty output lossage fixRoman Zippel2005-07-071-18/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch fixes a few corner cases around tty line editing with very long input lines: - n_tty_receive_char(): don't simply drop eol characters, otherwise canon_data isn't increased and the reader isn't woken up. - n_tty_receive_room(): If there is no newline pending and the edit buffer is full, allow only a single character to be written (until eol is found and the line is flushed), so characters from the next line aren't dropped. - write_chan(): if an incomplete line was written, continue writing until write() returns 0, otherwise it might not write the eol character to flush the line and the writer goes to sleep without ever being woken up. BTW the core problem is that part of this should be handled in the receive_buf path, but for this it has to return the number of written characters, as the amount of written characters may not be the same as the amount of characters going into the write buffer, so the receive_room() usage in pty_write() is not really reliable. Alan said: The problem looks valid. The behaviour of 'traditional unix' appears to be the following If you exceed the line limit then beep and drop the character Always allow EOL to complete a canonical line input Always do signal/control processing if enabled Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
* [PATCH] xtensa: remove old syscallsArnd Bergmann2005-07-073-277/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | xtensa is now in -rc1, with the obsolete syscalls still in there, so I guess this about the last chance to correct the ABI. Applying the patch obviously breaks all sorts of user space binaries and probably also requires the appropriate changes to be made to libc. On the other hand, if a decision is made to keep the broken interface, it should at least be a conscious one instead of an oversight.

* [PATCH] uml: remove winch semPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso2005-07-071-13/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replace a semaphore (winch_handler_sem) used in atomic code with a spinlock, and reduces as needed the amount of protected code to the bare minimum (for instance no kmalloc calls are needed). This fixes the last problems with spinlocking (in UP mode with DEBUG options); the semaphore, taken inside spinlocks, caused a "spin_lock was already locked" warning, without this patch.

* [PATCH] uml: Proper clone support for skas0Bodo Stroesser2005-07-0710-3/+231
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch implements the clone-stub mechanism, which allows skas0 to run with proc_mm==0, even if the clib in UML uses modify_ldt. Note: There is a bug in skas3.v7 host patch, that avoids UML-skas from running properly on a SMP-box. In full skas3, I never really saw problems, but in skas0 they showed up. More commentary by jdike - What this patch does is makes sure that the host parent of each new host process matches the UML parent of the corresponding UML process. This ensures that any changed LDTs are inherited. This is done by having clone actually called by the UML process from its stub, rather than by the kernel. We have special syscall stubs that are loaded onto the stub code page because that code must be completely self-contained. These stubs are given C interfaces, and used like normal C functions, but there are subtleties. Principally, we have to be careful about stack variables in stub_clone_handler after the clone. The code is written so that there aren't any - everything boils down to a fixed address. If there were any locals, references to them after the clone would be wrong because the stack just changed.

* [PATCH] uml: skas0 - separate kernel address space on stock hostsJeff Dike2005-07-0738-265/+853
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | UML has had two modes of operation - an insecure, slow mode (tt mode) in which the kernel is mapped into every process address space which requires no host kernel modifications, and a secure, faster mode (skas mode) in which the UML kernel is in a separate host address space, which requires a patch to the host kernel. This patch implements something very close to skas mode for hosts which don't support skas - I'm calling this skas0. It provides the security of the skas host patch, and some of the performance gains. The two main things that are provided by the skas patch, /proc/mm and PTRACE_FAULTINFO, are implemented in a way that require no host patch. For the remote address space changing stuff (mmap, munmap, and mprotect), we set aside two pages in the process above its stack, one of which contains a little bit of code which can call mmap et al. To update the address space, the system call information (system call number and arguments) are written to the stub page above the code. The %esp is set to the beginning of the data, the %eip is set the the start of the stub, and it repeatedly pops the information into its registers and makes the system call until it sees a system call number of zero. This is to amortize the cost of the context switch across multiple address space updates. When the updates are done, it SIGSTOPs itself, and the kernel process continues what it was doing. For a PTRACE_FAULTINFO replacement, we set up a SIGSEGV handler in the child, and let it handle segfaults rather than nullifying them. The handler is in the same page as the mmap stub. The second page is used as the stack. The handler reads cr2 and err from the sigcontext, sticks them at the base of the stack in a faultinfo struct, and SIGSTOPs itself. The kernel then reads the faultinfo and handles the fault. A complication on x86_64 is that this involves resetting the registers to the segfault values when the process is inside the kill system call. This breaks on x86_64 because %rcx will contain %rip because you tell SYSRET where to return to by putting the value in %rcx. So, this corrupts $rcx on return from the segfault. To work around this, I added an arch_finish_segv, which on x86 does nothing, but which on x86_64 ptraces the child back through the sigreturn. This causes %rcx to be restored by sigreturn and avoids the corruption. Ultimately, I think I will replace this with the trick of having it send itself a blocked signal which will be unblocked by the sigreturn. This will allow it to be stopped just after the sigreturn, and PTRACE_SYSCALLed without all the back-and-forth of PTRACE_SYSCALLing it through sigreturn. This runs on a stock host, so theoretically (and hopefully), tt mode isn't needed any more. We need to make sure that this is better in every way than tt mode, though. I'm concerned about the speed of address space updates and page fault handling, since they involve extra round-trips to the child. We can amortize the round-trip cost for large address space updates by writing all of the operations to the data page and having the child execute them all at the same time. This will help fork and exec, but not page faults, since they involve only one page. I can't think of any way to help page faults, except to add something like PTRACE_FAULTINFO to the host. There is PTRACE_SIGINFO, but UML doesn't use siginfo for SIGSEGV (or anything else) because there isn't enough information in the siginfo struct to handle page faults (the faulting operation type is missing). Adding that would make PTRACE_SIGINFO a usable equivalent to PTRACE_FAULTINFO. As for the code itself: - The system call stub is in arch/um/kernel/sys-$(SUBARCH)/stub.S. It is put in its own section of the binary along with stub_segv_handler in arch/um/kernel/skas/process.c. This is manipulated with run_syscall_stub in arch/um/kernel/skas/mem_user.c. syscall_stub will execute any system call at all, but it's only used for mmap, munmap, and mprotect. - The x86_64 stub calls sigreturn by hand rather than allowing the normal sigreturn to happen, because the normal sigreturn is a SA_RESTORER in UML's address space provided by libc. Needless to say, this is not available in the child's address space. Also, it does a couple of odd pops before that which restore the stack to the state it was in at the time the signal handler was called. - There is a new field in the arch mmu_context, which is now a union. This is the pid to be manipulated rather than the /proc/mm file descriptor. Code which deals with this now checks proc_mm to see whether it should use the usual skas code or the new code. - userspace_tramp is now used to create a new host process for every UML process, rather than one per UML processor. It checks proc_mm and ptrace_faultinfo to decide whether to map in the pages above its stack. - start_userspace now makes CLONE_VM conditional on proc_mm since we need separate address spaces now. - switch_mm_skas now just sets userspace_pid[0] to the new pid rather than PTRACE_SWITCH_MM. There is an addition to userspace which updates its idea of the pid being manipulated each time around the loop. This is important on exec, when the pid will change underneath userspace(). - The stub page has a pte, but it can't be mapped in using tlb_flush because it is part of tlb_flush. This is why it's required for it to be mapped in by userspace_tramp. Other random things: - The stub section in uml.lds.S is page aligned. This page is written out to the backing vm file in setup_physmem because it is mapped from there into user processes. - There's some confusion with TASK_SIZE now that there are a couple of extra pages that the process can't use. TASK_SIZE is considered by the elf code to be the usable process memory, which is reasonable, so it is decreased by two pages. This confuses the definition of USER_PGDS_IN_LAST_PML4, making it too small because of the rounding down of the uneven division. So we round it to the nearest PGDIR_SIZE rather than the lower one. - I added a missing PT_SYSCALL_ARG6_OFFSET macro. - um_mmu.h was made into a userspace-usable file. - proc_mm and ptrace_faultinfo are globals which say whether the host supports these features. - There is a bad interaction between the mm.nr_ptes check at the end of exit_mmap, stack randomization, and skas0. exit_mmap will stop freeing pages at the PGDIR_SIZE boundary after the last vma. If the stack isn't on the last page table page, the last pte page won't be freed, as it should be since the stub ptes are there, and exit_mmap will BUG because there is an unfreed page. To get around this, TASK_SIZE is set to the next lowest PGDIR_SIZE boundary and mm->nr_ptes is decremented after the calls to init_stub_pte. This ensures that we know the process stack (and all other process mappings) will be below the top page table page, and thus we know that mm->nr_ptes will be one too many, and can be decremented. Things that need fixing: - We may need better assurrences that the stub code is PIC. - The stub pte is set up in init_new_context_skas. - alloc_pgdir is probably the right place.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Use the vterm numbers to match the vio devices being probed with the indices already allocated via the console initcall function hvc_find_vtys. The old code required hvc_find_vtys to "guess" the matching devices the vio subsystem would find and its probe order.

* [PATCH] hvc_console: Rearrange codeMilton Miller2005-07-071-142/+142
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Milton Miller has done a lot of work to clean up our hvc_console code. One of the important things the following patch series does is separate the VIO layer from the hvc_console code. With the VIO specific code removed any ppc64 platform, or even any architecture, can use hvc_console as a generic polling console. You simply have to supply a get_chars and put_chars method and hvc_console does the rest of the work. You can even use it for an interrupt driven console. This patch: Rearrange the code in drivers/char/hvc_console.c to make future patches smaller. No actual code changes, just ordering of the functions in the file.

* [PATCH] ppc64: Turn runlatch on in exception entryAnton Blanchard2005-07-072-0/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Enable the runlatch at the start of each exception. Unfortunately we are out of space in the 0x300 handler, so I added it a bit later. The SPR write is fairly expensive, perhaps we should cache the runlatch state in the paca and avoid the write when possible. We don't need to turn the runlatch off, we do that in the idle loop. Better to take the hit in the idle loop than for each exception exit.
