Hi,

Finally, here's the klibc addition against the latest 2.5.62 bk kernel
tree. I'd like to thank Jeff Garzik, Peter Anvin, Russell King, and Kai
Germaschews for doing all of this work. I've merely taken their code
tweaked a few things and placed it in a repository to pull from. Thanks
also to Arnd Bergmann for finding a few nasty bugs by getting the s390
code to build and run properly.

Right now, klibc is built and a small sample program is added to the
initramfs image that is linked against klibc. I've backed out Kai's
CONFIG_INITRAMFS and root filesystem mounting code, if you look at the
changesets below. No new functionality is added to the kernel, yet :)

There might be a few problems when building on non-i386 platforms, but
I'm available (and so is Kai) to help fix up any problems found.

Please pull from:
bk://kernel.bkbits.net/gregkh/linux/klibc-2.5

Due to the size of some of these patches, I've placed them all at:
kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/gregkh/klibc/klibc-*2.5.62*

thanks,

greg k-h

  [PATCH] KLIBC: fix for non-i386 build

  I just tried building on s390x and only needed this trivial fix. Unfortunately,
  2.5.61 does not boot on s390x yet, so I could not do run-time tests.

  klibc: Move mounting of the root filesystem into userspace

  When selecting CONFIG_INITRAMFS, init/do_mounts.c is not compiled anymore,
  and it's task is taken over by a small /sbin/init running in initramfs.

  However, this is a proof of concept only, the userspace code only handles
  mounting a local filesystem, no support for nfs / initrd / devfs yet.

  klibc: Stop on error when building the CPIO

  gen_init_cpio still referenced hello in usr/hello_world, but I put it
  into usr/root. This is now corrected, however it also pointed out the
  common problem that the error code of gen_init_cpio is ignored since
  it's output is piped to gzip. To fix that, make the generation of the
  .cpio.gz a two step process.

  klibc: gen_init_cpio file generation fix

  I found what kept initramfs from working here: While creating
  of initramfs_data.cpio.gz, the padding between a file header
  and the file contents was wrong, which can be verified by
  unpacking the archive by hand.

  klibc: Fix the "hello" example (for real)

  Greg's fix used fwrite on a file descriptor obtained from open(), which
  only works by luck, since for klibc FILE * == fd.

  Use standard C lib functions for open/close.

  kbuild/klibc: Integrate klibc into the build.

  Basically, add a scripts/Makefile.user, which does similar things to
  scripts/Makefile.build, but compiles userspace for the target instead.

  It's tested for a static klibc on i386, building the shared lib works, too,
  but is not further integrated.

  This patch also adds gregkh's hello test program, which works as well.
