The issues described there are obviously the same, but the interfaces described there are different now for the most part. The arch-specific stuff is in include/asm-um/*-$(ARCH).h arch/um/sys-$(ARCH) arch/um/os-Linux/sys-$(ARCH) arch/um/include/sysdep-$(ARCH) Plus arch/um/Makefile-$(ARCH) and arch/um/Kconfig-$(ARCH).
