Jeff Dike 43f5b3085f uml: fix build when SLOB is enabled
Reintroduce uml_kmalloc for the benefit of UML libc code.  The
previous tactic of declaring __kmalloc so it could be called directly
from the libc side of the house turned out to be getting too intimate
with slab, and it doesn't work with slob.

So, the uml_kmalloc wrapper is back.  It calls kmalloc or whatever
that translates into, and libc code calls it.

kfree is left alone since that still works, leaving a somewhat
inconsistent API.

Jeff Dike 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.

Stanislaw Gruszka 4dbed85a35 uml: stop gdb from deleting breakpoints when running UML
Sometimes when UML is debugged gdb miss breakpoints.

When process traced by gdb do fork, debugger remove breakpoints from
child address space. There is possibility to trace more than one fork,
but this not work with UML, I guess (only guess) there is a deadlock -
gdb waits for UML and UML waits for gdb.

When clone() is called with SIGCHLD and CLONE_VM flags, gdb see this
as PTRACE_EVENT_FORK not as PTRACE_EVENT_CLONE and remove breakpoints
from child and at the same time from traced process, because either
have the same address space.

Maybe it is possible to do fix in gdb, but I'm not sure if there is
easy way to find out if traced and child processes share memory. So I
do fix for UML, it simply do not call clone() with both SIGCHLD and
CLONE_VM flags together.  Additionally __WALL flag is used for
waitpid() to assure not miss clone and normal process events.

Jeff Dike 512b6fb1c1 uml: userspace files should call libc directly
A number of files that were changed in the recent removal of tt mode
are userspace files which call the os_* wrappers instead of calling
libc directly.  A few other files were affected by this, through

This patch makes these call glibc directly.

There are also style fixes in the affected areas.

os_print_error has no remaining callers, so it is deleted.

There is a interface change to os_set_exec_close, eliminating a
parameter which was always the same.  The callers are fixed as well.

os_process_pc got its error path cleaned up.

Jeff Dike e4c4bf9968 uml: Eliminate kernel allocator wrappers
UML had two wrapper procedures for kmalloc, um_kmalloc and um_kmalloc_atomic
because the flag constants weren't available in userspace code.
kern_constants.h had made kernel constants available for a long time, so there
is no need for these wrappers any more.  Rather, userspace code calls kmalloc
directly with the userspace versions of the gfp flags.

kmalloc isn't a real procedure, so I had to essentially copy the inline
wrapper around __kmalloc.

vmalloc also had its own wrapper for no good reason.  This is now gone.

Jeff Dike c43990162f uml: simplify helper stack handling
run_helper and run_helper_thread had arguments which were the same in all
callers.  run_helper's stack_out was always NULL and run_helper_thread's
stack_order was always 0.  These are now gone, and the constants folded
into the code.

Also fixed leaks of the helper stack in the AIO and SIGIO code.

Jeff Dike a61f334fd2 uml: convert libc layer to call read and write
This patch converts calls in the os layer to os_{read,write}_file to calls
directly to libc read() and write() where it is clear that the I/O buffer is
in the kernel.

We can do that here instead of calling os_{read,write}_file_k since we are in
libc code and can call libc directly.

With the change in the calls, error handling needs to be changed to refer to
errno directly rather than the return value of the call.

CATCH_EINTR wrappers were also added where needed.

Jeff Dike ef0470c053 uml: tidy libc code
This patch lays some groundwork for the next one, which converts calls to
os_{read,write}_file into {read,write}, by doing some tidying in the affected
areas.

do_not_aio gets restructured to make the final result a bit cleaner.

There are also whitespace and other formatting fixes, fixes in error messages,
and a typo fix.

Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso 5d48545e5e [PATCH] uml: make execvp safe for our usage
Reimplement execvp for our purposes - after we call fork() it is fundamentally
unsafe to use the kernel allocator - current is not valid there.  So we simply
pass to our modified execvp() a preallocated buffer.  This fixes a real bug
and works very well in testing (I've seen indirectly warning messages from the
forked thread - they went on the pipe connected to its stdout and where read
as a number by UML, when calling read_output().  I verified the obtained
number corresponded to "BUG:").

The added use of __cant_sleep() is not a new bug since __cant_sleep() is
already used in the same function - passing an atomicity parameter would be
better but it would require huge change, stating that this function must not
be called in atomic context and can sleep is a better idea (will make sure of
this gradually).

Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso d9d645f06a [PATCH] uml: cleanup run_helper() API to fix a leak
Freeing the stack is left uselessly to the caller of run_helper in some cases
- this is taken from run_helper_thread, but here it is useless, so no caller
needs it and the only place where this happens has a potential leak - in case
of error neither run_helper() nor xterm_open() call free_stack().  At this
point passing a pointer is not needed - the stack pointer should be passed
directly, but this change is not done here.

Ugly trick to help make malloc not sleeping - we can't do anything else.  But
this is not yet optimal, since spinlock don't trigger in_atomic() when
preemption is disabled.

Also, even if ugly, this was already used in one place, and was even more
bogus.  Fix it.
