* [PATCH] mm: pte_offset_map_lock loopsHugh Dickins2005-10-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Convert those common loops using page_table_lock on the outside and pte_offset_map within to use just pte_offset_map_lock within instead. These all hold mmap_sem (some exclusively, some not), so at no level can a page table be whipped away from beneath them. But whereas pte_alloc loops tested with the "atomic" pmd_present, these loops are testing with pmd_none, which on i386 PAE tests both lower and upper halves. That's now unsafe, so add a cast into pmd_none to test only the vital lower half: we lose a little sensitivity to a corrupt middle directory, but not enough to worry about. It appears that i386 and UML were the only architectures vulnerable in this way, and pgd and pud no problem.

* [PATCH] uml: don't redundantly mark pte as newpage in pte_modifyPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso2005-09-221-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | pte_modify marks a page as needing flush, which is redundant because the resulting PTE is still set with set_pte, which already handles that.

* [PATCH] uml: inline mk_pte and various friendsPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso2005-09-101-5/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Turns out that, for UML, a *lot* of VM-related trivial functions are not inlined but rather normal functions. In other sections of UML code, this is justified by having files which interact with the host and cannot therefore include kernel headers, but in this case there's no such justification. I've had to turn many of them to macros because of missing declarations. While doing this, I've decided to reuse some already existing macros.

* [PATCH] uml: merge duplicated page table codeJeff Dike2005-09-051-0/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a lot of code which is duplicated between the 2 and 3 level implementation, with the only difference that the 3-level implementation is a bit more generalized (instead of accessing directly pte_t.pte, it uses the appropriate access macros). So this code is joined together. As obvious, a "core code nice cleanup" is not a "stability-friendly patch" so usual care applies.

* [PATCH] mm: correct _PAGE_FILE commentPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso2005-09-051-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | _PAGE_FILE does not indicate whether a file is in page / swap cache, it is set just for non-linear PTE's. Correct the comment for i386, x86_64, UML. Also clearify _PAGE_NONE.

* [PATCH] uml: remove jail mode + other leftoversPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso2005-05-281-8/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This var is currently useless, as it's apparent from reading the code. Until 2.6.11 it was used in some code related to jail mode, in the same proc.: if(jail){ while(!reading) sched_yield(); } jail mode has been dropped, together with that use, so let's finish dropping this. Also, remove some other useless definitions I met.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
