* [PATCH] PTRACE_SYSEMU is only for i386 and clashes with other ptrace codes ↵Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso2006-01-091-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | of other archs PTRACE_SYSEMU{,_SINGLESTEP} is actually arch specific, for now, and the current allocated number clashes with a ptrace code of frv, i.e. PTRACE_GETFDPIC. I should have submitted this much earlier, anyway we get no breakage for this.

* [PATCH] x86: privilege cleanupZachary Amsden2005-09-051-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Privilege checking cleanup. Originally, these diffs were much greater, but recent cleanups in Linux have already done much of the cleanup. I added some explanatory comments in places where the reasoning behind certain tests is rather subtle. Also, in traps.c, we can skip the user_mode check in handle_BUG(). The reason is, there are only two call chains - one via die_if_kernel() and one via do_page_fault(), both entering from die(). Both of these paths already ensure that a kernel mode failure has happened. Also, the original check here, if (user_mode(regs)) was insufficient anyways, since it would not rule out BUG faults from V8086 mode execution. Saving the %ss segment in show_regs() rather than assuming a fixed value also gives better information about the current kernel state in the register dump.

* [PATCH] xen: x86: Rename usermode macroVincent Hanquez2005-06-231-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rename user_mode to user_mode_vm and add a user_mode macro similar to the x86-64 one. This is useful for Xen because the linux xen kernel does not runs on the same priviledge that a vanilla linux kernel, and with this we just need to redefine user_mode().

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!
