[PATCH] uml: check for differences in host support

If running on a host not supporting TLS (for instance 2.4) we should report
that cleanly to the user, instead of printing not comprehensible "error 5" for
that.

Additionally, i386 and x86_64 support different ranges for
user_desc->entry_number, and we must account for that; we couldn't pass
ourselves -1 because we need to override previously existing TLS descriptors
which glibc has possibly set, so test at startup the range to use.

x86 and x86_64 existing ranges are hardcoded.

[PATCH] uml: clean arch_switch usage

Call arch_switch also in switch_to_skas, even if it's, for now, a no-op for
that case (and mark this in the comment); this will change soon.

Also, arch_switch for TT mode is actually useless when the PT proxy (a
complicate debugging instrumentation for TT mode) is not enabled.  In fact, it
only calls update_debugregs, which checks debugregs_seq against seq (to check
if the registers are up-to-date - seq here means a "version number" of the
registers).

If the ptrace proxy is not enabled, debugregs_seq always stays 0 and
update_debugregs will be a no-op.  So, optimize this out (the compiler can't
do it).

Also, I've been disappointed by the fact that it would make a lot of sense if,
after calling a successful
update_debugregs(current->thread.arch.debugregs_seq),
current->thread.arch.debugregs_seq were updated with the new debugregs_seq.
But this is not done.  Is this a bug or a feature?  For all purposes, it seems
a bug (otherwise the whole mechanism does not make sense, which is also a
possibility to check), which causes some performance only problems (not
correctness), since we write_debugregs when not needed.

Also, as suggested by Jeff, remove a redundant enabling of SIGVTALRM,
comprised in the subsequent local_irq_enable().  I'm just a bit dubious if
ordering matters there...

[PATCH] UML: Hotplug memory, take 2

Changes since first version
added check for MADV_REMOVE support on the host
fixed error return botch
shrunk sprintf array by one character

This adds hotplug memory support to UML.  The mconsole syntax is
  config mem=[+-]n[KMG]
In other words, add or subtract some number of kilobytes, megabytes, or
gigabytes.

Unplugged pages are allocated and then madvise(MADV_TRUNCATE), which is a
currently experimental madvise extension.  These pages are tracked so they
can be plugged back in later if the admin decides to give them back.  The
first page to be unplugged is used to keep track of about 4M of other
pages.  A list_head is the first thing on this page.  The rest is filled
with addresses of other unplugged pages.  This first page is not madvised,
obviously.

When this page is filled, the next page is used in a similar way and linked
onto a list with the first page.  Etc.  This whole process reverses when
pages are plugged back in.  When a tracking page no longer tracks any
unplugged pages, then it is next in line for plugging, which is done by
freeing pages back to the kernel.

http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=114178139610707&w=2

o While using kdump, after a system crash when second kernel boots, timer
  vector gets (0x31) locked and CPU does not see timer interrupts
  travelling from IOAPIC to APIC.  Currently it does not lead to boot
  failure in second kernel as timer interrupts continues to come as ExtInt
  through LAPIC directly, but fixing it is good in case some boards do not
  support the other mode.

o After a system crash, it is not safe to service interrupts any more,
  hence interrupts are disabled.  This leads to pending interrupts at
  LAPIC.  LAPIC sends these interrupts to the CPU during early boot of
  second kernel.  Other pending interrupts are discarded saying unexpected
  trap but timer interrupt is serviced and CPU does not issue an LAPIC EOI
  because it think this interrupt came from i8259 and sends ack to 8259.
  This leads to vector 0x31 locking as LAPIC does not clear respective ISR
  and keeps on waiting for EOI.

o This patch issues extra EOI for the pending interrupts who have ISR set.

o Though today only timer seems to be the special case because in early
  boot it thinks interrupts are coming from i8259 and uses
  mask_and_ack_8259A() as ack handler and does not issue LAPIC EOI.  But
  probably doing it in generic manner for all vectors makes sense.

From the splice.c comments:

   "splice": joining two ropes together by interweaving their strands.

   This is the "extended pipe" functionality, where a pipe is used as
   an arbitrary in-memory buffer. Think of a pipe as a small kernel
   buffer that you can use to transfer data from one end to the other.

   The traditional unix read/write is extended with a "splice()" operation
   that transfers data buffers to or from a pipe buffer.

   Named by Larry McVoy, original implementation from Linus, extended by

Initializing the b44 MAC & PCI functional blocks in the controller must
occur inside init_one(). This will allow access to the MAC registers.
The controller was being powered up in b44_open() which would not allow
access to the registers before ifconfig was up.
Philip Kohlbecher found this bug.
