2007-10-16uml: network driver MTU cleanupsJeff Dike
A bunch of MTU-related cleanups in the network code. First, there is the addition of the notion of a maximally-sized packet, which is the MTU plus headers. This is used to size the skb that will receive a packet. This allows ether_adjust_skb to go away, as it was used to resize the skb after it was allocated. Since the skb passed into the low-level read routine is no longer resized, and possibly reallocated, there, they (and the write routines) don't need to get an sk_buff **. They just need the sk_buff * now. The callers of ether_adjust_skb still need to do the skb_put, so that's now inlined. The MAX_PACKET definitions in most of the drivers are gone. The set_mtu methods were all the same and did nothing, so they can be removed. The ethertap driver had a typo which doubled the size of the packet rather than adding two bytes to it. It also wasn't defining its setup_size, causing a zero-byte kmalloc and crash when the invalid pointer returned from kmalloc was dereferenced.

2007-10-16uml: use *SEC_PER_*SEC constantsJeff Dike
There are various uses of powers of 1000, plus the odd BILLION constant in the time code. However, there are perfectly good definitions of *SEC_PER_*SEC in linux/time.h which can be used instaed. These are replaced directly in kernel code. Userspace code imports those constants as UM_*SEC_PER_*SEC and uses these.

2007-10-16uml: eliminate SIGALRMJeff Dike
Now that ITIMER_REAL is no longer used, there is no need for any use of SIGALRM whatsoever. This patch removes all mention of it. In addition, real_alarm_handler took a signal argument which is now always SIGVTALRM. So, that is gone.

2007-10-16uml: time build fixJeff Dike
Put back an implementation of timeval_to_ns in arch/um/os-Linux/time.c. tglx pointed out in his review of tickless support that there was a perfectly good implementation of it in linux/time.h. The problem is that this is userspace code which can't pull in kernel headers and there doesn't seem to be a libc version. So, I'm copying the version from linux/time.h rather than resurrecting my version. This causes some declaration changes as it now returns a signed value rather than an unsigned value.

2007-10-16uml: eliminate interrupts in the idle loopJeff Dike
Now, the idle loop now longer needs SIGALRM firing - it can just sleep for the requisite amount of time and fake a timer interrupt when it finishes. Any use of ITIMER_REAL now goes away. disable_timer only turns off ITIMER_VIRTUAL. switch_timers is no longer needed, so it, and all calls, goes away. disable_timer now returns the amount of time remaining on the timer. default_idle uses this to tell idle_sleep how long to sleep. idle_sleep will call alarm_handler if nanosleep returns 0, which is the case if it didn't return early due to an interrupt. Otherwise, it just returns.

2007-10-16uml: tickless supportJeff Dike
Enable tickless support. CONFIG_TICK_ONESHOT and CONFIG_NO_HZ are enabled. itimer_clockevent gets CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_ONESHOT and an implementation of .set_next_event. CONFIG_UML_REAL_TIME_CLOCK goes away because it only makes sense when there is a clock ticking away all the time. timer_handler now just calls do_IRQ once without trying to figure out how many ticks to emulate. The idle loop now needs to turn ticking on and off. Userspace ticks keep happening as usual. However, the userspace loop keep track of when the next wakeup should happen and suppresses process ticks until that happens.

2007-10-16uml: fix timer switchingJeff Dike
Fix up the switching between virtual and real timers. The idle loop sleeps, so the timer at that point must be real time. At all other times, the timer must be virtual. Even when userspace is running, and the kernel is asleep, the virtual timer is correct because the process timer will be running and the process timer will be firing. The timer switch used to be in the context switch and timer handler code. This is moved to the idle loop and the signal handler, making it much more clear why it is happening. switch_timers now returns the old timer type so that it may be restored. The signal handler uses this in order to restore the previous timer type when it returns.

The FPX requests get handed off to arch-specific code because that's not generic. get_fpregs, set_fpregs, set_fpregs, and set_fpxregs needed real implementations.

2007-10-16uml: floating point signal delivery fixesJeff Dike
Handle floating point state in across signals correctly. UML/i386 needs to know whether the host does PTRACE_[GS]ETFPXREGS, so an arch_init_registers hook is added, which on x86_64 does nothing. UML doesn't save and restore floating point registers on kernel entry and exit, so they need to be copied between the host process and the sigcontext. save_fpx_registers and restore_fpx_registers are added for this purpose. save_fp_registers and restore_fp_registers already exist. There was a bunch of floating point state conversion code in arch/um/sys-i386/ptrace.c which isn't needed there, but is needed in signal.c, so it is moved over. The i386 code now distinguishes between fp and fpx state and handles them correctly. The x86_64 code just needs to copy state as-is between the host process and the stack. There are also some fixes there to pass the correct address of the floating point state around.

2007-10-16uml: clean up tlb flush pathJeff Dike
Tidy the tlb flushing code. With tt mode gone, there is no reason to have the capability to have called directly from do_mmap, do_mprotect, and do_munmap, rather than calling a function pointer that it is given. There was a large amount of data that was passed from function to function, being used at the lowest level, without being changed. This stuff is now encapsulated in a structure which is initialized at the top layer and passed down. This simplifies the code, reduces the amount of code needed to pass the parameters around, and saves on stack space. A somewhat more subtle change is the meaning of the current operation index. It used to start at -1, being pre-incremented when adding an operation. It now starts at 0, being post-incremented, with associated adjustments of +/- 1 on comparisons. In addition, tlb.h contained a couple of declarations which had no users outside of tlb.c, so they could be moved or deleted.

2007-10-16uml: userspace files should call libc directlyJeff Dike

There are also style fixes in the affected areas. os_print_error has no remaining callers, so it is deleted.

2007-10-16uml: throw out CONFIG_MODE_TTJeff Dike
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.

2007-10-16uml: stop saving process FP stateJeff Dike
Throw out a lot of code dealing with saving and restoring floating-point state. In skas mode, where processes run in a restoring floating-point state on kernel entry and exit is pointless. This eliminates most of arch/um/os-Linux/sys-{i386,x86_64}/registers.c. Most of what remained is now arch-indpendent, and can be moved up to arch/um/os-Linux/registers.c. Both arches need the jmp_buf accessor get_thread_reg, and i386 needs {save,restore}_fp_regs because it cheats during sigreturn by getting the fp state using ptrace rather than copying it out of the process sigcontext. After this, it turns out that arch/um/include/skas/mode-skas.h is almost completely unneeded. The declarations in it are variables which either don't exist or which don't have global scope. The one exception is kill_off_processes_skas. If that's removed, this header can be deleted. This uncovered a bug in user.h, which wasn't correctly making sure that a size_t definition was available to both userspace and kernelspace files.
