Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso 802e307795 [PATCH] uml: fix format errors
Now that GCC warns about format errors, fix them.  Nothing able to cause a
crash, however.

Jeff Dike f4c57a78e2 [PATCH] uml: fix initcall return values
A number of UML initcalls were improperly returning 1.  Also removed any
nearby emacs formatting comments.

Jeff Dike 1d2ddcfb19 [PATCH] uml: close TUN/TAP file descriptors
When UML opens a TUN/TAP device, the file descriptor could be copied into
later, long-lived threads, holding the device open even after the interface is
taken down, preventing it from being brought up again.  This patch makes these
descriptors close-on-exec so that they disappear from helper processes, and
adds CLONE_FILES to a UML helper thread so that the descriptors are closed in
the thread when they are closed elsewhere in UML.

Jeff Dike ff5c6ff542 [PATCH] uml: separate libc-dependent helper code
The serial UML OS-abstraction layer patch (um/kernel dir).

This moves all systemcalls from helper.c file under os-Linux dir

Jeff Dike b4fd310e16 [PATCH] uml: preserve errno in error paths
The poster child for this patch is the third tuntap_user hunk.  When an ioctl
fails, it properly closes the opened file descriptor and returns.  However,
the close resets errno to 0, and the 'return errno' that follows returns 0
rather than the value that ioctl set.  This caused the caller to believe that
the device open succeeded and had opened file descriptor 0, which caused no
end of interesting behavior.

The rest of this patch is a pass through the UML sources looking for places
where errno could be reset before being passed back out.  A common culprit is
printk, which could call write, being called before errno is returned.

In some cases, where the code ends up being much smaller, I just deleted the
printk.

There was another case where a caller of run_helper looked at errno after a
failure, rather than the return value of run_helper, which was the errno value
that it wanted.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
