David Howells 930e652a21 [PATCH] NOMMU: Make futexes work under NOMMU conditions
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
