Linus,

The attached below is the first of several changes for initramfs / early
userspace.

This change is intentionally very simple, not really proving its worth
until next week when patches 2 and 3 in this series arrive in your
inbox. A description of "the future" follows description of this
specific cset.

1) Introduce init/initramfs.c itself, which is a module that
uncompresses a .cpio.gz archive, and uses it to populate rootfs with
files early very in the bootup process (between signals_init and
proc_root_init in init/main.c). People will see a small listing in
dmesg of unpacked files. We need to keep this for now (and for now it's
small), but we may want to remove this output or turn the knob down to
KERN_DEBUG before 2.6.x release:
-> file1
-> file2
-> etc...

(architecture maintainers note!)
2) Introduce ARCHBLOBLFLAGS in arch/$arch/Makefile, for turning an
arbitrary binary object into a .o file using objcopy.

3) Link the initramfs cpio archive in vmlinux image via
arch/$arch/vmlinux.lds.S, in the init section.

4) Introduce the new linux/usr directory. Currently it is not very
interesting, only containing a small host-built proggie that generates
the initial cpio archive, gen_init_cpio. This program will go away when
early userspace is further along. It currently exists to show initramfs
is working, by allowing us to remove three simple lines from
init/do_mounts.c.

The Future.

Early userspace is going to be merged in a series of evolutionary
changes, following what I call "The Al Viro model." NO KERNEL BEHAVIOR
SHOULD CHANGE. [that's for the lkml listeners, not you <g>] "make"
will continue to simply Do The Right Thing(tm) on all platforms, while
the kernel image continues to get progressively smaller. Here is the
initial plan for early userspace, i.e. the patches you are going to be
seeing next week:

#2 - merge klibc.

As I said earlier, I am not sure if we will wind up removing klibc just
before 2.6.x release or not. Comments welcome. But for now, klibc will
be merged into the kernel tarball, because otherwise version drift
during the evolution of early userspace will be a huge PITA, and slow
things down. It is a tiny libc written specifically for the kernel.

This patch will add klibc to the build system, and create a tiny,
statically-linked binary "kinit". kinit is the beginnings of early
userspace. Some tiny, token amount of do_mounts.c code will be moving
into kinit in patch #2, only enough to prove the system is working.

#3 - move initrd to userspace

Unfortunately we don't start seeing tangible benefits to early userspace
until this patch, but that's how evolution works :) Here, initrd
unpacking code is moved to userspace, as much as possible. Some initrd
code will inevitably stay in the kernel, because it is arch-specific how
to grab the initrd image from bootmem [or whereever], but the vast
majority of initrd code goes poof (yay!). No initrd behavior will
change at all, from current kernels. It is simply getting moved to
early userspace. Users will not need to do anything on their end to
make sure their existing setups continue to work -- any such actions are
a bug on my part.

This patch will also turn "kinit" into a shared binary, and introduce
the gzip binary into early userspace. [see "Items For Discussion"
below, too, WRT this.]

#4 - move mounting root to userspace

People probably breathed a sigh of relief at patch #3, they will heave a
bigger sigh for this patch :) This moves mounting of the root
filesystem to early userspace, including getting rid of
NFSroot/bootp/dhcp code in the kernel.

#N - to infinity... and beyond!

I, and hopefully others, will continue in the series of evolutionary
patches, moving more and more stuff to early userspace. There are a lot
of possibilities, and I will be looking for input from others on useful
things to move, as well as continuing my own work of finding items that
can be moved.

Items For Discussion

#1 - shared kinit

"kinit" is _the_ early userspace binary -- but not necessarily the only
one. Peter Anvin and Russell King have several binaries in the klibc
tarball, gzip, ash, and several smaller utilities. Peter also put work
into making klibc a shared object -- that doesn't need an shlib loader.
It's pretty nifty how he does it, IMO: klibc.so becomes an ELF
interpreter for any klibc-linked binaries. klibc-linked binaries are,
to the ELF system, static binaries, but they wind up sharing klibc.so
anyway due to this trick.

Anyway, there is a certain elegance in adding coding to kinit instead of
an explosion of binaries and shell scripts. The other side of that coin
is that with elegance you sacrifice some ease of making changes. I am
60% certain we want a shared klibc and multiple binaries, but am willing
to be convinced in either direction. If you think about it, there _are_
several benefits to leaving kinit as the lone binary in the stock kernel
early userspace build, so the decision is not as cut-n-dry as it may
immediately seem.

#2 - klibc in the kernel tarball

It's going in, for now. That's not open to discussion. However, the
future is... I know the old maxim of "once's it in, it never goes
away." Maybe that's the case, and if so, no big deal. I know at least
a couple people who would like to see it leave the kernel tarball before
2.6.0 is released. I solicit comments on this item, though I think we
will won't be in a position to answer this question until 2.6.0 release
is near.

That's it for now. Questions, comments, and flames welcome. If I
missed some early userspace benefits, let me know. If you know of good
things to move to early userspace, let me know. If there are upcoming
bumps in the road I did not mention, let me know.

Credits: Al Viro for the initramfs work. hpa, rmk, Greg KH, Alan, and
innumerable others have contributed ideas if not actual code towards
this effort. And thanks to our Emporer Penguin for giving me a break,
when I blew the Halloween deadline spending 24 hours debugging an
_incredibly_ stupid bug on my part. I deserve not one but two brown
paper bags for that one.
