4ac9137858 Embed a struct path into struct nameidata instead of nd->{dentry,mnt}
This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good
reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects
that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata.

Together with the other patches of this series
- it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on
  <dentry,vfsmount> pairs
- it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a
  struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed
- it reduces the overall code size:

without patch series:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
5321639  858418  715768 6895825  6938d1 vmlinux

with patch series:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
5320026  858418  715768 6894212  693284 vmlinux

This patch:

Switch from nd->{dentry,mnt} to nd->path.{dentry,mnt} everywhere.

ac2a659968 uml: fix mm_context memory leak
[ Spotted by Miklos ]

Fix a memory leak in init_new_context.  The struct page ** buffer allocated
for install_special_mapping was never recorded, and thus leaked when the
mm_struct was freed.  Fix it by saving the pointer in mm_context_t and freeing
it in arch_exit_mmap.

5134d8fea0 uml: style fixes in arch/um/os-Linux
Style changes under arch/um/os-Linux:
	include trimming
	CodingStyle fixes
	some printks needed severity indicators

make_tempfile turns out not to be used outside of mem.c, so it is now static.
Its declaration in tempfile.h is no longer needed, and tempfile.h itself is no
longer needed.

create_tmp_file was also made static.

checkpatch moans about an EXPORT_SYMBOL in user_syms.c which is part of a
macro definition - this is copying a bit of kernel infrastructure into the
libc side of UML because the kernel headers can't be included there.

536788fe2d uml: runtime host VMSPLIT detection
Calculate TASK_SIZE at run-time by figuring out the host's VMSPLIT - this is
needed on i386 if UML is to run on hosts with varying VMSPLITs without
recompilation.

TASK_SIZE is now defined in terms of a variable, task_size.  This gets rid of
an include of pgtable.h from processor.h, which can cause include loops.

On i386, task_size is calculated early in boot by probing the address space in
a binary search to figure out where the boundary between usable and non-usable
memory is.  This tries to make sure that a page that is considered to be in
userspace is, or can be made, read-write.  I'm concerned about a system-global
VDSO page in kernel memory being hit and considered to be a userspace page.

On x86_64, task_size is just the old value of CONFIG_TOP_ADDR.

A bunch of config variable are gone now.  CONFIG_TOP_ADDR is directly replaced
by TASK_SIZE.  NEST_LEVEL is gone since the relocation of the stubs makes it
irrelevant.  All the HOST_VMSPLIT stuff is gone.  All references to these in
arch/um/Makefile are also gone.

I noticed and fixed a missing extern in os.h when adding os_get_task_size.

Note: This has been revised to fix the 32-bit UML on 64-bit host bug that
Miklos ran into.

2f569afd9c CONFIG_HIGHPTE vs. sub-page page tables.
Background: I've implemented 1K/2K page tables for s390.  These sub-page
page tables are required to properly support the s390 virtualization
instruction with KVM.  The SIE instruction requires that the page tables
have 256 page table entries (pte) followed by 256 page status table entries
(pgste).  The pgstes are only required if the process is using the SIE
instruction.  The pgstes are updated by the hardware and by the hypervisor
for a number of reasons, one of them is dirty and reference bit tracking.
To avoid wasting memory the standard pte table allocation should return
1K/2K (31/64 bit) and 2K/4K if the process is using SIE.

Problem: Page size on s390 is 4K, page table size is 1K or 2K.  That means
the s390 version for pte_alloc_one cannot return a pointer to a struct
page.  Trouble is that with the CONFIG_HIGHPTE feature on x86 pte_alloc_one
cannot return a pointer to a pte either, since that would require more than
32 bit for the return value of pte_alloc_one (and the pte * would not be
accessible since its not kmapped).

Solution: The only solution I found to this dilemma is a new typedef: a
pgtable_t.  For s390 pgtable_t will be a (pte *) - to be introduced with a
later patch.  For everybody else it will be a (struct page *).  The
additional problem with the initialization of the ptl lock and the
NR_PAGETABLE accounting is solved with a constructor pgtable_page_ctor and
a destructor pgtable_page_dtor.  The page table allocation and free
functions need to call these two whenever a page table page is allocated or
freed.  pmd_populate will get a pgtable_t instead of a struct page pointer.
 To get the pgtable_t back from a pmd entry that has been installed with
pmd_populate a new function pmd_pgtable is added.  It replaces the pmd_page
call in free_pte_range and apply_to_pte_range.

7fa3031500 aout: suppress A.OUT library support if !CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT
Suppress A.OUT library support if CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT is not set.

Not all architectures support the A.OUT binfmt, so the ELF binfmt should not
be permitted to go looking for A.OUT libraries to load in such a case.  Not
only that, but under such conditions A.OUT core dumps are not produced either.

To make this work, this patch also does the following:

 (1) Makes the existence of the contents of linux/a.out.h contingent on
     CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT.

 (2) Renames dump_thread() to aout_dump_thread() as it's only called by A.OUT
     core dumping code.

 (3) Moves aout_dump_thread() into asm/a.out-core.h and makes it inline.  This
     is then included only where needed.  This means that this bit of arch
     code will be stored in the appropriate A.OUT binfmt module rather than
     the core kernel.

 (4) Drops A.OUT support for Blackfin (according to Mike Frysinger it's not
     needed) and FRV.

This patch depends on the previous patch to move STACK_TOP[_MAX] out of
asm/a.out.h and into asm/processor.h as they're required whether or not A.OUT
format is available.

b0b933c08b aout: mark arches that support A.OUT format
Mark arches that support A.OUT format by including the following in their
master Kconfig files:

	config ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT
		def_bool y

This should also be set if the arch provides compatibility A.OUT support for
an older arch, for instance x86_64 for i386 or sparc64 for sparc.

I've guessed at which arches don't, based on comments in the code, however I'm
sure that some of the ones I've marked as 'yes' actually should be 'no'.

Redo the calculation of NR_syscalls since that disappeared from i386 and
use a similar mechanism on x86_64.

We now figure out the size of the system call table in arch code and stick
that in syscall_table_size.  arch/um/kernel/skas/syscall.c defines
NR_syscalls in terms of that since its the only thing that needs to know
how many system calls there are.

The old mechananism that was used on x86_64 is gone.

The function inside the while condition returns 0 to signify a problem.  A
problem could be for example a bad command or a bad version of the mconsole

kernel.  This is a problem.

e6a2d1f702 uml: clean up sig_handler_common_skas
sig_handler_common_skas needs significant modernization, starting with
its name and storage class.

There is no need to hide the true type of the sigcontext pointer, so
the void * dummy parameter can be replaced with a sigcontext *sc.

The array of uml_pt_regs structs used in the page fault case are gone,
replaced by a local variable.  This is also used in the non-segfault
case instead of the copy in the task_struct.  Since it's local, the
special handling of the is_user flag can go away.

There hasn't been any special treatment of SIGUSR1 in ages, so the
line that enables it can be deleted.

The special treatment of SIGSEGV similarly goes away, but to
compensate, SA_NODEFER is added to sa_mask when registering a signal
handler.

00a905e614 uml: don't kill pid 0
A bit of defensive programming - during development, it ocassionally
happens that a call to init_new_context is missed, resulting in
context holding a host pid of zero.  When that address space is torn
down, destroy_context does a kill(0), which instantly kills the whole
UML without any errors whatsoever.

This patch add a check for pids less than 2, to also catch 1 and
negative pids.

1aa351a308 uml: tidy helper code
Style fixes to arch/um/os/helper.c and tidying up the breakpoint fix a
bit.

helper.c gets all the usual style fixes -
	 updated copyright
	 all printks get severities

Also -
	 errval changes to err in helper_child
	 fixed an obsolete comment
	 run_helper was killing a child process which is guaranteed to
be dead or dying anyway

Removed the nohang and pname arguments from helper_wait and fixed the
declaration and callers.  nohang was used only in the slirp driver and
I don't think it was needed.  I think pname was a bit of overkill in
putting out an error message when something goes wrong.

fce8c41c9f uml: use barrier() instead of mb()
signals_enabled and pending have requirements on the order in which they are
modified.  This used to be done by declaring them volatile and putting an mb()
where the ordering requirements were in effect.

After getting a better (I hope) understanding of how to do this correctly, the
volatile declarations are gone and the mb()'s replaced by barrier()'s.

One of the mb()'s was deleted because I see no problematic writes that could
be re-ordered past that point.

0983a88b9f uml: install panic notifier earlier
It turns out that if there's a panic early enough, UML will just sit there in
the LED-blinking loop because the panic notifier hadn't been installed yet.

This patch installs it earlier.

It also fixes the problem which exposed the hang, namely that if you give UML
a zero-sized initrd, it will ask alloc_bootmem for zero bytes, and that will
cause the panic.

While I was in initrd.c, I gave it a style makeover.

Prompted by checkpatch, I moved a couple extern declarations of uml_exitcode
to kern_util.h.

8efa3c9d54 uml: eliminate setjmp_wrapper
setjmp_wrapper existed to provide setjmp to kernel code when UML used libc's
setjmp and longjmp.  Now that UML has its own implementation, this isn't
needed and kernel code can invoke setjmp directly.

do_buffer_op is massively cleaned up since it is no longer a callback from
setjmp_wrapper and given a va_list from which it must extract its arguments.

The actual setjmp is moved from buffer_op to do_op_one_page because the copy
operation is inside an atomic section (kmap_atomic to kunmap_atomic) and it
shouldn't be longjmp-ed out of.

0b4e273fb8 uml: customize tlb.h
Customize the hooks in tlb.h to optimize TLB flushing some more.

Add start and end fields to tlb_gather_mmu, which are used to limit
the address space range scanned when a region is unmapped.

The interfaces which just free page tables, without actually changing
mappings, don't need to cause a TLB flush.

     	os_set_fd_async needed to read flags before changing them, it
doesn't need a pid passed in because it can call getpid itself, and a
block of unused code needed deleting
	os_get_exec_close was unused, so it is removed
	ptrace_child called _exit for historical reasons which are no

7b5cc6ee6c uml: fix mconsole stop
Bring back the functionality of stopping user mode linux with the help of
mconsole.

[jdike - the bug being fixed is that the mconsole file descriptor is already
set O_NONBLOCK or not, depending on whether we want no blocking (the normal
case) or we want blocking (when an mconsole stop is in effect), so the
MSG_DONTWAIT is redundant in the normal case, and wrong when we want to
block.]

Fix the repetition of the NET symbol.  It was once in UML specific options and
once in networking.  I removed the first occurrence, as it makes more sense to
me to keep it only in networking.

It also removes a mostly empty file which is not used anymore and some
unused variables.

260c0cb886 uml: fx command-line CFLAGS and LDFLAGS support
UML still needed some work in order to allow CFLAGS to be passed in from the
command line.

USER_CFLAGS is produced from KBUILD_CFLAGS in part by removing all the -I
switches.  This is so that kernel headers don't accidentally get pulled into
libc files.  However, a common use of command-line CFLAGS would be to add -I
switches to the build.  This patch specifically adds any command-line -I flags
back to USER_CFLAGS.

I also corrected the spelling of LFLAGS to LDFLAGS.

3963333fe6 uml: cover stubs with a VMA
Give the stubs a VMA.  This allows the removal of a truly nasty kludge to make
sure that mm->nr_ptes was correct in exit_mmap.  The underlying problem was
always that the stubs, which have ptes, and thus allocated a page table,
weren't covered by a VMA.

This patch fixes that by using install_special_mapping in arch_dup_mmap and
activate_context to create the VMA.  The stubs have to be moved, since
shift_arg_pages seems to assume that the stack is the only VMA present at that
point during exec, and uses vma_adjust to fiddle its VMA.  However, that
extends the stub VMA by the amount removed from the stack VMA.

To avoid this problem, the stubs were moved to a different fixed location at
the start of the address space.

The init_stub_pte calls were moved from init_new_context to arch_dup_mmap
because I was occasionally seeing arch_dup_mmap not being called, causing
exit_mmap to die.  Rather than figure out what was really happening, I decided
it was cleaner to just move the calls so that there's no doubt that both the
pte and VMA creation happen, no matter what.  arch_exit_mmap is used to clear
the stub ptes at exit time.

The STUB_* constants in as-layout.h no longer depend on UM_TASK_SIZE, that
that definition is removed, along with the comments complaining about gcc.

Because the stubs are no longer at the top of the address space, some care is
needed while flushing TLBs.  update_pte_range checks for addresses in the stub
range and skips them.  flush_thread now issues two unmaps, one for the range
before STUB_START and one for the range after STUB_END.

42a2b54ce8 uml: clean up TASK_SIZE usage
Clean up the calculation and use of the usable address space size on the host.

task_size is gone, replaced with TASK_SIZE, which is calculated from
CONFIG_TOP_ADDR.  get_kmem_end and set_task_sizes_skas are also gone.

host_task_size, which refers to the entire address space usable by the UML
kernel and which may be larger than the address space usable by a UML process,
since that has to end on a pgdir boundary, is replaced by CONFIG_TOP_ADDR.

STACK_TOP is now TASK_SIZE minus the two stub pages.
