[PATCH] NOMMU: Make futexes work under NOMMU conditions

Browse Source 
Make futexes work under NOMMU conditions.

This can be tested by running this in one shell:

	#define SYSERROR(X, Y) \
		do { if ((long)(X) == -1L) { perror(Y); exit(1); }} while(0)

	int main()
	{
		int shmid, tmp, *f, n;

		shmid = shmget(23, 4, IPC_CREAT|0666);
		SYSERROR(shmid, "shmget");

		f = shmat(shmid, NULL, 0);
		SYSERROR(f, "shmat");

		n = *f;
		printf("WAIT: %p{%x}\n", f, n);
		tmp = futex(f, FUTEX_WAIT, n, NULL, NULL, 0);
		SYSERROR(tmp, "futex");
		printf("WAITED: %d\n", tmp);

		tmp = shmdt(f);
		SYSERROR(tmp, "shmdt");

		exit(0);
	}

And then this in the other shell:

	#define SYSERROR(X, Y) \
		do { if ((long)(X) == -1L) { perror(Y); exit(1); }} while(0)

	int main()
	{
		int shmid, tmp, *f;

		shmid = shmget(23, 4, IPC_CREAT|0666);
		SYSERROR(shmid, "shmget");

		f = shmat(shmid, NULL, 0);
		SYSERROR(f, "shmat");

		(*f)++;
		printf("WAKE: %p{%x}\n", f, *f);
		tmp = futex(f, FUTEX_WAKE, 1, NULL, NULL, 0);
		SYSERROR(tmp, "futex");
		printf("WOKE: %d\n", tmp);

		tmp = shmdt(f);
		SYSERROR(tmp, "shmdt");

		exit(0);
	}

The first program will set up a SYSV IPC SHM segment and wait on a futex in it
for the number at the start to change.  The program will increment that number
and wake the first program up.  This leads to output of the form:

	SHELL 1			SHELL 2
	=======================	=======================
	# /dowait
	WAIT: 0xc32ac000{0}
				# /dowake
				WAKE: 0xc32ac000{1}
	WAITED: 0		WOKE: 1

=======
FUTEXES
=======
Futexes are supported in NOMMU mode if the arch supports them. An error will
be given if an address passed to the futex system call lies outside the
mappings made by a process or if the mapping in which the address lies does not
support futexes (such as an I/O chardev mapping).
