The KSTK_* macros used an inordinate amount of stack. In order to overcome
an impedance mismatch between their interface, which just returns a single
register value, and the interface of get_thread_regs, which took a full
pt_regs, the implementation created an on-stack pt_regs, filled it in, and
returned one field. do_task_stat calls KSTK_* twice, resulting in two
local pt_regs, blowing out the stack.
This patch changes the interface (and name) of get_thread_regs to just
return a single register from a jmp_buf.
The include of archsetjmp.h" in registers.h to get the definition of
jmp_buf exposed a bogus include of <setjmp.h> in start_up.c. <setjmp.h>
shouldn't be used anywhere any more since UML uses the klibc
setjmp/longjmp.

set_interval returns an error instead of panicing if setitimer fails. Some of
its callers now check the return.
enable_timer is largely tt-mode-specific, so it is marked as such, and the
only skas-mode caller is made to call set-interval instead.
user_time_init was a no-value-added wrapper around set_interval, so it is
gone.
Since set_interval is now called from kernel code, callers no longer pass
ITIMER_* to it. Instead, they pass a flag which is converted into ITIMER_REAL
or ITIMER_VIRTUAL.

Have most signals go through an arch-provided handler which recovers the
sigcontext and then calls a generic handler. This replaces the
ARCH_GET_SIGCONTEXT macro, which was somewhat fragile. On x86_64, recovering
%rdx (which holds the sigcontext pointer) must be the first thing that
happens. sig_handler duly invokes that first, but there is no guarantee that
I can see that instructions won't be reordered such that %rdx is used before
that. Having the arch provide the handler seems much more robust.
Some signals in some parts of UML require their own handlers - these places
don't call set_handler any more. They call sigaction or signal themselves.

- Various cleanups in the sigio code.
- Removed explicit zero-initializations of a few structures.
- Improved some error messages.
- An API change - there was an asymmetry between reactivate_fd calling
maybe_sigio_broken, which goes through all the machinery of figuring out if
a file descriptor supports SIGIO and applying the workaround to it if not,
and deactivate_fd, which just turns off the descriptor.
This is changed so that only activate_fd calls maybe_sigio_broken, when
the descriptor is first seen. reactivate_fd now calls add_sigio_fd, which
is symmetric with ignore_sigio_fd.
This removes a recursion which makes a critical section look more critical
than it really was, obsoleting a big comment to that effect. This requires
keeping track of all descriptors which are getting the SIGIO treatment, not
just the ones being polled at any given moment, so that reactivate_fd,
through add_sigio_fd, doesn't try to tell the SIGIO thread about descriptors
it doesn't care about.

This patch adds an implementation of setjmp and longjmp to UML, allowing
access to the inside of a jmpbuf without needing the access macros formerly
provided by libc.
The implementation is stolen from klibc. I copy the relevant files into
arch/um. I have another patch which avoids the copying, but requires klibc be
in the tree.
setjmp and longjmp users required some tweaking. Includes of <setjmp.h> were
removed and includes of the UML longjmp.h were added where necessary. There
are also replacements of siglongjmp with UML_LONGJMP which I somehow missed
earlier.

One of the changes necessary for shared page tables is to standardize the
pxx_page macros. pte_page and pmd_page have always returned the struct
page associated with their entry, while pte_page_kernel and pmd_page_kernel
have returned the kernel virtual address. pud_page and pgd_page, on the
other hand, return the kernel virtual address.
Shared page tables needs pud_page and pgd_page to return the actual page
structures. There are very few actual users of these functions, so it is
simple to standardize their usage.
Since this is basic cleanup, I am submitting these changes as a standalone
patch. Per Hugh Dickins' comments about it, I am also changing the
pxx_page_kernel macros to pxx_page_vaddr to clarify their meaning.

The latest toolchains can produce a new ELF section in DSOs and
dynamically-linked executables. The new section ".gnu.hash" replaces
".hash", and allows for more efficient runtime symbol lookups by the
dynamic linker. The new ld option --hash-style={sysv|gnu|both} controls
whether to produce the old ".hash", the new ".gnu.hash", or both. In some
new systems such as Fedora Core 6, gcc by default passes --hash-style=gnu
to the linker, so that a standard invocation of "gcc -shared" results in
producing a DSO with only ".gnu.hash". The new ".gnu.hash" sections need
to be dealt with the same way as ".hash" sections in all respects; only the
dynamic linker cares about their contents. To work with older dynamic
linkers (i.e. preexisting releases of glibc), a binary must have the old
".hash" section. The --hash-style=both option produces binaries that a new
dynamic linker can use more efficiently, but an old dynamic linker can
still handle.
The new section runs afoul of the custom linker scripts used to build vDSO
images for the kernel. On ia64, the failure mode for this is a boot-time
panic because the vDSO's PT_IA_64_UNWIND segment winds up ill-formed.
This patch addresses the problem in two ways.
First, it mentions ".gnu.hash" in all the linker scripts alongside ".hash".
This produces correct vDSO images with --hash-style=sysv (or old tools),
with --hash-style=gnu, or with --hash-style=both.
Second, it passes the --hash-style=sysv option when building the vDSO
images, so that ".gnu.hash" is not actually produced. This is the most
conservative choice for compatibility with any old userland. There is some
concern that some ancient glibc builds (though not any known old production
system) might choke on --hash-style=both binaries. The optimizations
provided by the new style of hash section do not really matter for a DSO
with a tiny number of symbols, as the vDSO has. If someone wants to use
=gnu or =both for their vDSO builds and worry less about that
compatibility, just change the option and the linker script changes will
make any choice work fine.

This cleans up the mess that is the timer initialization. There used to be
two timer handlers - one that basically ran during delay loop calibration and
one that handled the timer afterwards. There were also two sets of timer
initialization code - one that starts in user code and calls into the kernel
side of the house, and one that starts in kernel code and calls user code.
This eliminates one timer handler and consolidates the two sets of
initialization code.

Rename actually_do_remove() to remove_files_and_dir(), make it call
closedir(), make it ignore ENOENT (I see it frequently enough).
ENOENT is probably due to multiple threads calling the exitcall functions
together*, but fixing that is non-trivial; and ignoring it is perfectly ok
in any case.
* it can surely happen: last_ditch_exit() is installed as SIGTERM handler
at boot, and it's not removed on thread creation. So killall vmlinux
(which I do) surely causes that. I've seen also a crash which seems to
do the same.
Installing the handler on only the main thread would make UML do no cleanup
when another thread exits, and we're not sure we want that. And mutual
exclusion in that context is tricky - we can't use spinlock in code not on
a kernel stack (spinlock debugging uses "current" a lot).

The bug occurred to me when a UML left an empty ~/.uml/Sarge-norm folder -
when trying to reuse not_dead_yet() failed one of its check. The comment
says that's ok and means that we can take the directory, but while normally
not_dead_yet() removes it and returns 0 (i.e. go on, use this), on failure
it returns 0 but forgets to remove it. The fix is to remove it anytime
we're going to return 0.
But since "not_dead_yet" didn't make the interface so clear, causing this
bug, and I couldn't find a convenient name for the mix of things it did, I
split it into two parts:
is_umdir_used() - returns a boolean, contains all checks of not_dead_yet()
umdir_take_if_dead - tries to remove the dir unless it's used - returns
whether it removed it, that is we now own it.
With this changes the control flow is IMHO a bit clearer and needs less
comment for control flow.

Make __copy_*_user_inatomic really atomic to avoid "Sleeping function called in
atomic context" warnings, especially from futex code.
This is made by adding another kmap_atomic slot and making copy_*_user_skas
use kmap_atomic; also copy_*_user() becomes atomic, but that's true and is not
a problem for i386 (and we can always add might_sleep there as done
elsewhere). For TT mode kmap is not used, so there's no need for this.
I've had to use another slot since both KM_USER0 and KM_USER1 are used
elsewhere and could cause conflicts. Till now we reused the kmap_atomic slot
list from the subarch, but that's not needed as that list must contain the
common ones (used by generic code) + the ones used in architecture specific
code (and Uml till now used none); so I've taken the i386 one after comparing
it with ones from other archs, and added KM_UML_USERCOPY.

I run an x86_64 kernel with i386 userspace (Ubuntu Dapper) and decided to try
out UML today. I found that UML wasn't quite aware of biarch compilers (which
Ubuntu i386 ships). A fix similar to what was done for x86_64 should probably
be committed (see
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113425940204010&w=2). Without
the FLAGS changes, the build will fail at a number of places and without the
LINK change, the final link will fail.
