            <h3>The Current TODO list</h3>
          </center>
Since about Feb 2001, I've been maintaining a TODO list and posting it to the
devel list ocassionally.

<table width="100%" bgcolor="#e0e0e0">
            <tr>
              <td>
                <b>
                  <font color="black"> Not done </font>
                </b>
              </td>
            </tr>
          </table>
          <br>
          <b>Packaging</b>
          <br>
          <blockquote>
            <p>
Figure out how to ship the UML test suite
</blockquote>
          <br>
          <b>Functionality</b>
          <br>
          <blockquote>
            <p>
Add a mechanism for rereading module symbols when the module is reloaded.
<p>
Extract Patrick Schaaf's cool new block driver from him.
</blockquote>
          <br>
          <b>Bugs</b>
          <br>
          <blockquote>
            <p>
My attempts to run the Debian install procedure hung UML while it was
probing disks.  I never figured out what was happening.
<p>
I need to figure out why some people 
see 'Unexpectedly got signal 4 in signals'.  This has been reported a 
couple of times, but I've never got any information that would help me 
debug it. 
<p>
Make UML build without warnings
<p>
Make sure that each clock tick gets counted
<p>
Figure out the hostfs crash that Larent Bonnaud is seeing
<p>
make 'gdb=pty' work
<p>
protect kernel memory from userspace
<p>
Figure out why the io_thread loses its parent and its connection to the kernel
<p>
Disable SIGIO on file descriptors which are already being handled.
This will cut off some interrupt recursion. 
<p>
Figure out why gdb can't use fd chan (blinky@gmx.net)
<p>
Figure out why repeated 'tail /dev/zero' with swap causes process segfaults
<p>
The ptrace proxy should handle wait correctly for non-UML subprocesses of gdb
<p>
Set SA_RESTART on SIGPROF

Figure out why running a properly built UML under UML doesn't work
<p>
Figure out why init/version.c, init/main.c, and arch/um/main.c don't
get coverage data.

'i reg' to gdb inside UML doesn't print the fp registers
<p>
Get the fp registers in core files correctly.
<p>
Fix the ubd rounding bug spotted by Steve Schmidtke and Roman Zippel.
<p>
Byte-swap the ubd bitmap (Roman Zippel)
<p>
gdb should be the last thing to be shut down so that breakpoints can
be set late in the shutdown process.
<p>
The register state in the sigcontext passed in to a signal handler should
be copied into the process registers when the handler returns.
<p>
Have the __uml_exitcall handlers check to see if they need to do anything.

            <p>
Get either Myrtal Meep or Matt Clay 
to confirm (or not) that they can no longer crash UML with 
Apache/Perl/MySQL.  This will probably be fixed with the new network drivers. 
<p>
Someone needs to try booting UML as a diskless client via bootp and
make sure that it works. 
<p>
I have a bug that says that diskless booting doesn't work because it's
impossible to assign an address to a network interface from the
command line.  However, I've heard of someone booting diskless
successfully, so this needs to be cleared up.
<p>
I have an old bug that claims that UML can be crashed with a ping
flood.  I haven't seen this happen recently, so if anyone else has,
you'd better let me know.

Figure out what to do

          <b>Bugs</b>
          <br>
          <blockquote>
            <p>
I occasionally see one of the loggers 
dying from a SIGTERM during boot because of a kill that's somehow directed 
at the wrong process.
<p>
Implement copy_{from,to}_user using 
setjmp/longjmp.
<p>
Fix gcov and gprof support
<p>
Figure out why the umn device won't serve more than one packet to remote machines.
<p>
Figure out how to make 
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 work with modules (fix from Lennert which explicitly
uses the *64 interfaces)
<p>
Figure out why ^S and ^Q don't work on the console (patch from Livio)
<p>
Stop the hangs caused by someone disconnecting from a virtual console
<p>
umn needs to destroy the slip device 
when it's no longer needed (JS)
<p>
clean up the umn_set_addr logic
<p>
Make sure that readonly hostfs really 
is readonly (James McMechan)
<p>
Figure out the wait_for_page hangs
<p>
I used to see syslog ocassionally hang, 
but haven't in a long time.  It happened again, and it turns out I was 
enabling signals when they shouldn't be, allowing the timer to interrupt a 
sensitive part of do_IRQ.
<p>
gdb doesn't find the kernel if it isn't 
called 'linux' (Brian J. Murrell)
<p>
Have the ubd driver figure out the 
block device size with BLKGETSIZE if necessary (Lennert Buytenhek, marc)
<p>
Make sure it boots in the presence of IO 
redirection and piping (JS)
<p>
Rebooting a UML under debug won't kill the 
old gdb
<p>
Remove assumption that argv is 
contiguous (Boria Feigin)
<p>
Have hostfs copy user data with 
copy_{to,from}_user.
<p>
Put in Lennert's utsname patch 
(Lennert Buytenhek)
<p>
Put in Lennert's ubd LFS patch 
(Lennert Buytenhek)
<p>
The kernel shouldn't hang when debug is 
requested and it wasn't compiled with CONFIG_PT_PROXY.
<p>
Make empty_zero_page and empty_bad_page 
reserved (Rik)
<p>
Increase COMMAND_LINE_SIZE to something 
bigger (JS)
<p>
Put breakpoints on panic and stop
<p>
Make hostfs figure out external filenames 
by walking up the dentry-&gt;parent tree rather than having inodes store them. 
<p>
Figure out why hostfs misses files in large 
directories
<p>
Make sure init can exec (Al Viro)
<p>
Fix the problems that mistral is 
seeing.  This is three bugs - the sleep hang, a bug in 
sigio_handler (both fixed), plus the sigreturn bug.
<p>
Reimplement process signal delivery to 
eliminate the race when the process handler returns
<p>
Various fixes and cleanups in hostfs (Al Viro)
<p>
Remove real_mm from thread and replace 
it with some unused pte bits
<p>
Fix /proc/cmdline 
(prose from Henrik Nordstrom, code from Greg Lonnon)
<p>
drivers Makefile cleanup 
(patch from Greg Lonnon)
<p>
tty_flip_buffer_push fixlet patch 
from (Gordon McNutt)
<p>
The ubd device should reset openflags 
between mounts (jfreak)
<p>
Figure out the sleep hang.  It 
happens rarely.  Somehow, irq_desc[0].flags gets stuck at 5 which tells do_IRQ
that the interrupt is already being handled.
<p>
Stop ^C in gdb from segfaulting processes if it hits in userspace.
<p>
Figure out why swapping causes
process segfaults and nasty mm messages.
<p>
Fix the build so that modules_install
drops modules in the proper hierarchy (fix from Henrik Nordstrom)
<p>
Got rid of hostfs_llseek (patch from 
stewart and Henrik Nordstrom)
<p>
gdb now ignores SIGWINCH. (patch
from James Stevenson)
<p>
Fixed ubd stats (patch from James
 Stevenson)
<p>
UML should run on kernels with
a 2G/2G address space split (blinky) <p>
Fix the segv bug where
a --x page is never fixed because thread.starting_exec is set (mistral) -
mistral hasn't complained about this in ages
<p>
Fix 'cat /proc/kmsg' (Torsten Fink)
<p>
Fix crash if someone types at
the console too soon (patch from mistral)
<p>
 Change __SMP__ to CONFIG_SMP
(Niels Kristian Bech Jensen)
<p>
Include config.h where necessary
(Niels Kristian Bech Jensen)
<p>
Fix a couple allocation buglets
in hostfs (Henrik Nordstrom)
<p>
Implement internal system calls
correctly (Roman Zippel)
<p>
Allow the time to be changed
(Frank Klingenhoefer) (patch from Livio Soares)
<p>
Figure out why UML flunks the f00f test
<p>
Make the build work when CONFIG_MCONSOLE is
off
<p>
Provide some kind of reasonable error 
message when the root filesystem isn't writable.
<p>
Remove the chdir from the umid setup
<p>
Figure out why the .deb build fails
checksumming - it was because hostfs reads went through the page cache
and writes bypassed it
<p>
Figure out why diffing identical kernel
pools produces diffs - can't reproduce this, so I have to assume that it's 
fixed somehow
<p>
Make sure that gdbs get killed properly
<p>
Stop dev_ip_addr from crashing if the
interface has no IP addresses
<p>
set_umid should only set the umid
<p>
COW headers should have absolute pathnames
in them or backing file path names should be possibly relative to the COW
file's directory
<p>
Figure out why some early breakpoints don't
work. I.e.  Setting a bp in do_initcalls or bdflush and continuing from 
start_kernel misses the bp, but continuing from rest_init hits it.
<p>
Print out a decent error message when mcast setup fails because there
are no multicast devices on the host 
<p>
Suppress the error message from uml_net when route fails because
there's no eth0 on the host 
<p>
See if it's possible to have uml_net know
when an eth device changes its IP address
<p>
Figure out why apt-get install ntp crashes UML.
<p>
Fix the error messages when a backing file doesn't exist, and also when the
COW file exists, but is empty.
<p>
Put -fno-common back
<p>
Fix gdb
<p>
Fix daemonized operation
<p>
Run sysrq stuff in interrupt context
<p>
Make it possible to ^Z and bg UML
<p>
Make core dumping work
<p>
many du / causes process segfaults
<p>
Removing ethertap or TUN/TAP eth devices produces odd error messages in
UML
<p>
Figure out why running UML under an identical UML hangs the outer one
<p>
gdbs aren't getting killed properly again
<p>
Setting up a tuntap interface with no gate address will hang UML when
the interface is brought up
<p>
Figure why processes segfault under extreme load, like a 'make -j'
kernel build
<p>
Figure out how to let arches ifdef out PTRACE_[SG]ETREGS
<p>
Put UML temporary files (except maybe the mmap files) in the user's
home directory.
<p>
Fix the bogomips calculation.
<p>
Figure out how to implement thread private pages.
<p>
Figure out why ^S and ^Q don't work on the console (phillips)
<p>
When a non-root ubd device is COWed, the bitmap isn't mapped in for some 
reason.
<p>
The mconsole driver should support C-A-D if it doesn't already.
<p>
Improve the formatting when a error message is returned from uml_net,
i.e. when TUN/TAP is requested, but uml_net doesn't support TUN/TAP.
<p>
gdb should be able to see ^C immediately
<p>
When UML halts, any external debugger needs to be told that it exited so
it doesn't get confused about the child suddenly disappearing.
<p>
setup_stack should use copy_to_user.

          <blockquote>
            <p>
Larent Bonnaud claimed a while ago that upgrading a Debian filesystem
hung the kernel.  I need to know if this is still a problem.
<p>

Get Rik van Riel to confirm that UML no longer loses
characters that he types at the console.  Rik says he hasn't seen it
in a while, mistral confirms.
