We lost the marking of SIGWINCH as being OK to receive during stub
execution, causing a panic should that happen.

x86_64 defines either memcpy or __memcpy depending on the gcc version, and
it looks like UML needs to follow that in its exporting.

The top of physical memory should be below the initial process stack, not the
top of the address space, at least for as long as the stack isn't known to the
kernel VM system and appropriately reserved.

My copying of linux/init.h didn't go far enough. The definition of
__used singled out gcc minor version 3, but didn't care what the major
version was. This broke when unit-at-a-time was added and gcc started
throwing out initcalls.
This results in

Fedora broke PTRACE_SYSEMU again, and UML crashes as a result when it
doesn't need to. This patch makes the PTRACE_SYSEMU check fail gracefully
and makes UML fall back to PTRACE_SYSCALL.

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, t
Here's my 2.6.25 patchset again. I've rebased against 2.6.25.14 and
included the correct commit ids this time.

This patch makes os_get_task_size locate the bottom of the address space,
as well as the top. This is for systems which put a lower limit on mmap

Protection against the host's time going backwards (eg, ntp activity on
the host) by keeping track of the time at the last tick and if it's
greater than the current time, keep time stopped until the host catches

Alarm delivery could be noticably late in the !CONFIG_NOHZ case because lost

There are various constraints on the use of unit-at-a-time:
- i386 uses no-unit-at-a-time for pre-4.0 (not 4.3)
- x86_64 uses unit-at-a-time always

UML's supposed nanosecond clock interacts badly with NTP when NTP
decides that the clock has drifted ahead and needs to be slowed down.
Slowing down the clock is done by decrementing the cycle-to-nanosecond
multiplier, which is 1. Decrementing that g
