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.

ba180fd437 uml: style fixes pass 3
Formatting changes in the files which have been changed in the course
of folding foo_skas functions into their callers.  These include:
	copyright updates
	header file trimming
	style fixes
	adding severity to printks

These changes should be entirely non-functional.

77bf440031 uml: remove code made redundant by CHOOSE_MODE removal
This patch makes a number of simplifications enabled by the removal of
CHOOSE_MODE.  There were lots of functions that looked like

	int foo(args){
		foo_skas(args);
	}

The bodies of foo_skas are now folded into foo, and their declarations (and
sometimes entire header files) are deleted.

In addition, the union uml_pt_regs, which was a union between the tt and skas
register formats, is now a struct, with the tt-mode arm of the union being
removed.

It turns out that usr2_handler was unused, so it is gone.

6aa802ce6a uml: throw out CHOOSE_MODE
The next stage after removing code which depends on CONFIG_MODE_TT is removing
the CHOOSE_MODE abstraction, which provided both compile-time and run-time
branching to either tt-mode or skas-mode code.

This patch removes choose-mode.h and all inclusions of it, and replaces all
CHOOSE_MODE invocations with the skas branch.  This leaves a number of trivial
functions which will be dealt with in a later patch.

There are some changes in the uaccess and tls support which go somewhat beyond
this and eliminate some of the now-redundant functions.

da3e30e78e uml: fix aio compilation bug
Restructure do_aio thanks to commments from Ulrich and Al.

Uli started this by seeing that UML's initialization of a struct iocb
initialized fields that it shouldn't.

Al followed up by adding the following cleanups:
	eliminating a variable by just using an anonymous structure in
its place.
	hoisting a duplicated line out of the switch.
	simplifying the error checking at the end.

I added a severity to the printk.

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.

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.

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.

d50084a299 [PATCH] uml: Formatting changes
This patch makes a bunch of non-functional changes -
    return(foo); becomes return foo;
    some statements are broken across lines for readability
    some trailing whitespace is cleaned up
    open_one_chan took four arguments, three of which could be
       deduced from the first.  Accordingly, they were eliminated.
    some examples of "} else {" had a newline added
    some whitespace cleanup in the indentation
    lines_init got some control flow cleanup
    some long lines were broken
    removed another emacs-specific C formatting comment

91acb21f08 [PATCH] uml: revert block driver use of host AIO
The patch to use host AIO support that I submitted early after 2.6.13 exposed
some problems in the block driver.  I have fixes for these, but am not
comfortable putting them into 2.6.14 at this late date.  So, this patch reverts
the use of host AIO.

I will resubmit the original patch, plus fixes to the driver after 2.6.14
in order to get a reasonable amount of testing before they're exposed to
the general public.

It is because the field we're casting from, though being 64-bit wide, was filled

b4fd310e16 [PATCH] uml: preserve errno in error paths
The poster child for this patch is the third tuntap_user hunk.  When an ioctl
fails, it properly closes the opened file descriptor and returns.  However,
the close resets errno to 0, and the 'return errno' that follows returns 0
rather than the value that ioctl set.  This caused the caller to believe that
the device open succeeded and had opened file descriptor 0, which caused no
end of interesting behavior.

The rest of this patch is a pass through the UML sources looking for places
where errno could be reset before being passed back out.  A common culprit is
printk, which could call write, being called before errno is returned.

In some cases, where the code ends up being much smaller, I just deleted the
printk.

There was another case where a caller of run_helper looked at errno after a
failure, rather than the return value of run_helper, which was the errno value
that it wanted.

09ace81c1d [PATCH] uml: add host AIO support to block driver
This adds AIO support to the ubd driver.

The driver breaks a struct request into IO requests to the host, based on the
hardware segments in the request and on any COW blocks covered by the request.

The ubd IO thread is gone, since there is now an equivalent thread in the AIO
module.

There is provision for multiple outstanding requests now.  Requests aren't
retired until all pieces of it have been completed.  The AIO requests have a
shared count, which is decremented as IO operations come in until it reaches
0.  This can be possibly moved to the request struct - haven't looked at this
yet.
