Download latest man-pages (at least 2.27) and read man 2 ptrace; if something 
is not clear, I'll answer to your further doubts.

Doing context switching is fairly easy: with ptrace you change all registers 
and so on. I guess you know that, if I'm wrong feel free to ask.

There is a further problem however: different apps have different address 
spaces, with different mappings (or different memory images, they're running 
different executables with different libraries... there are various way to 
say this).

To solve this problem, we introduce on the host the SKAS3 patch whihch allows 
one process to have multiple address spaces - only one is in use, but via 
ptrace(PTRACE_SWITCH_MM) we can replace that one with another one - this is 
done by making a pointer in the process descriptor (i.e. current in Linux 
kernel code) point to another "mapping set" (called struct mm_struct), so 
it's very fast; you must also invalidate the TLB (i.e. the processor caches 
of page table entries) like on any "memory context switching", obviously.

[uml-devel] arch/i386/Kconfig.cpu considered harmful

2006-05-03 Thread Jeff Dike
Do we really need to pull that into the UML Kconfig?  We need some of
the things it defines, like X86_CMPXCHG, but people keep discovering
that menu and trying to set it to match the host, causing compilation
problems when that pulls in headers that UML doesn't have.

I think I would like to dump Kconfig.cpu and define for ourselves the
symbols that we need.

Jeff

Yes, I didn't fix these problems. I've been fairly lazy, I must admit this.

How do you let the user choose the CPU he wants to optimize for? That was the 
first purpose of what I did - optimizing for 386 isn't exactly the best thing 
to do (and we've done this, till the menu was introduced).

We can restrict the choices in the menu, for now, with a dependency on ! UML 
for the ones which don't work (i.e. the ones using 3DNow in string 
operations, IIRC). M686, Athlon and likely Pentium 4 work at least.
