Construct init thread stack in the linker script rather than by union

2018-01-09T23:21:02+00:00

Construct the init thread stack in the linker script rather than doing it by means of a union so that ia64's init_task.c can be got rid of. The following symbols are then made available from INIT_TASK_DATA() linker script macro: init_thread_union init_stack INIT_TASK_DATA() also expands the region to THREAD_SIZE to accommodate the size of the init stack. init_thread_union is given its own section so that it can be placed into the stack space in the right order. I'm assuming that the ia64 ordering is correct and that the task_struct is first and the thread_info second.

um: Use os_warn to print out pre-boot warning/error messages

2017-07-05T21:18:25+00:00

Use os_warn() instead of printf/fprintf to print out pre-boot warning/error messages to stderr. Note that the help message and version message are kept to print out to stdout, because user explicitly specifies those options to get such information.

arch: remove unused macro/function thread_saved_pc()

2017-06-28T23:13:57+00:00

The only user of thread_saved_pc() in non-arch-specific code was removed in commit 8243d5597793 ("sched/core: Remove pointless printout in sched_show_task()"). Remove the implementations as well. Some architectures use thread_saved_pc() in their arch-specific code. Leave their thread_saved_pc() intact.

um: Fix to call read_initrd after init_bootmem

2017-05-03T20:38:16+00:00

Since read_initrd() invokes alloc_bootmem() for allocating memory to load initrd image, it must be called after init_bootmem. This makes read_initrd() called directly from setup_arch() after init_bootmem() and mem_total_pages().

um: Setup physical memory in setup_arch()

2016-08-03T22:00:46+00:00

Currently UML sets up physical memory very early, long before setup_arch() was called by the kernel main function. This can cause problems when code paths in UML's memory setup code assume that the kernel is already running. i.e. when kmemleak is enabled it will evaluate current() in free_bootmem(). That early current() is undefined and UML explodes. Solve the problem by setting up physical memory in setup_arch(), at this stage the kernel has materialized and basic infrastructure such as current() works. Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger
