x86: break mutual header inclusion

2008-06-02T10:48:23+00:00

This breaks up the mutual inclusion between headers ptrace.h and vm86.h
by moving some small part of vm86.h which is needed by ptrace.h into
processor-flags.h.

We also try to move #include lines to the top.

This has been compile tested on x86_32 and x86_64 defconfig, and run
through 'make headers_check'.

x86_64 ia32 ptrace: convert to compat_arch_ptrace

2008-04-26T15:35:47+00:00

Now that there are no more special cases in sys32_ptrace, we
can convert to using the generic compat_sys_ptrace entry point.
The sys32_ptrace function gets simpler and becomes compat_arch_ptrace.

x86: cleanup - rename VM_MASK to X86_VM_MASK

2008-04-17T15:41:33+00:00

This patch renames VM_MASK to X86_VM_MASK (which
in turn defined as alias to X86_EFLAGS_VM) to better
distinguish from virtual memory flags. We can't just
use X86_EFLAGS_VM instead because it is also used
for conditional compilation

x86: rename stack_pointer to kernel_trap_sp

2008-01-30T12:33:16+00:00

Choose a less generic name for such a special case.  Add
a comment explaining the odd use in X86_32.

Change the one user of stack_pointer.

x86: clean up ptrace.h

2008-01-30T12:33:16+00:00

Leave definition of pt_regs in its own section, move all kernel
code to section afterwards, unify prototype definitions, has some
conditional prototypes to make it clear what was only defined in
32 and 64 bit.

x86: unify pt_regs accessors ptrace.h

2008-01-30T12:33:16+00:00

Unify the definiton of:
v8086_mode
user_mode
user_mode_vm
stack_pointer
instruction_pointer
frame_pointer

in ptrace.h to make it clear where the differences are between
32 and 64 bit.  Changes macros to static inlines as well.

x86: remove last user of get_segment_eip

2008-01-30T12:33:12+00:00

is_prefetch was the last user of get_segment_eip and only on
X86_32.  This function returned the faulting instruction's
address and set the upper segment limit.

Instead, use the convert_ip_to_linear helper and rely on
probe_kernel_address to do the segment checks which was
already done everywhere the segment limit was being checked
on X86_32.

Remove get_segment_eip as well.
