Changelog for uml-patch-2.4.19-23.bz2

Release Date : Oct 29 2002

  • Fixed another bug in the uaccess macros. They weren't handling write accesses to read-protected memory properly.
  • Declared mode_tt so that umid.c will build.
  • Ditched the stolen i386 IP checksumming code because it assumes the kernel and process are in the same address space.
  • Fixed the kill(-1, SIGKILL) that was happening at halt.
  • Fixed a bug which caused a kernel vm flush when the fault was in userspace.
  • Fixed the segv call to properly decide whether a fault was a read or a write.
  • Disabled CLONE_VM in skas mode for the time being.
  • Moved tracing into the tt arm of the thread's mode union.
