In an O= build, rely on the generated Makefile to call the main Makefile
properly. When building in the source tree, we do not need to specify
the -C and O= either. This fixes the problem when $(objtree) is a
relative path and the -C changes the directory.Reported-by: Richard Weinberger

The mmu-gather operation 'tlb_flush_mmu()' has done two things: the
actual tlb flush operation, and the batched freeing of the pages that
the TLB entries pointed at.This splits the operation into separate phases, so that the forced
batched flushing done by zap_pte_range() can now do the actual TLB flush
while still holding the page table lock, but delay the batched freeing
of all the pages to after the lock has been dropped.This in turn allows us to avoid a race condition between
set_page_dirty() (as called by zap_pte_range() when it finds a dirty
shared memory pte) and page_mkclean(): because we now flush all the
dirty page data from the TLB's while holding the pte lock,
page_mkclean() will be held up walking the (recently cleaned) page
tables until after the TLB entries have been flushed from all CPU's.Reported-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

The reverse case of this race (you must msync before read) is
well known. This is the not so common one.It can be triggered only on systems which do a lot of task
switching and only at UML startup. If you are starting 200+ UMLs

Inferring the mount hierarchy correctly from /proc/mounts is hard when MS_MOVE
may have been used, and the previous code did it wrongly. This change simplifies
the logic to only require that /dev/shm be _on_ tmpfs (which can be checked
trivially with statfs) rather than that it be a _mountpoint_ of tmpfs, since
there isn't a compelling reason to be that strict. We also now check for tmpfs
on whatever directory we ultimately use so that the user is better informed.This change also moves the more standard TMPDIR environment variable check ahead
of the others.Applies to 3.12.

Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger -
arch/um/defconfig only lists one default configuration, and that applies
only to the i386 architecture. Replace it with two minimal
configuration files generated using `make savedefconfig`:i386_defconfig and x86_64_defconfig
The build scripts now require two updates:
1. um's Kconfig (arch/x86/um/Kconfig) should specify an ARCH_DEFCONFIG
section explicitly pointing to these scripts if the required
variables are set. Take care to remove the DEFCONFIG_LIST section
defined in the included file arch/um/Kconfig.common.2. um's Makefile (arch/um/Makefile) should set KBUILD_DEFCONFIG properly
for the top-level Makefile to pick up. Copy the logic in
arch/x86/Makefile to properly pick the defconfig file depending on
the actual architecture; except we're working with $SUBARCH here,
instead of $ARCH.Now, you can do:
$ ARCH=um make defconfig
$ ARCH=um makeand successfully build User-Mode Linux on an x86_64 box in default
