Patches 1-3 fix general issues and can be applied immediately.
Patches 4-8 implement the checkpoint and restart syscalls and
architecture callbacks.
Patch 9 implements the clone_with_pids syscall, but I think the shape
of that interface is yet to be finalized, so I guess it's FYI for now.
Simple single task checkpoint and restart work, as does
clone_with_pids, apparently. Multiple task restart fails; the
coordinator task appears to be receiving a signal during
wait_all_tasks_finish() -> wait_for_completion_interruptible() for
some reason I am still trying to tracking down.
Nathan Lynch (9):
checkpoint: fix integer-pointer conversion warnings
fix trivial build breaks in compat code
futex.h: fix compat builds
powerpc: reserve checkpoint arch identifiers
powerpc: provide APIs for validating and updating DABR
powerpc: checkpoint/restart implementation
powerpc: wire up checkpoint and restart syscalls
powerpc: enable checkpoint support in Kconfig
powerpc: clone_with_pids implementation
