2008-01-26[S390] Use diag308 subcodes 3 and 6 for reboot and dump when possible.Michael Holzheu
This patch fixes a problem with the following scenario: 1. Linux booted from DASD "A" 2. Reboot from DASD "B" using "/sys/firmware/reipl/ccw/device" 3. Reboot DASD "B" Without this patch in step 3 on newer s390 systems under LPAR instead of DASD "B", DASD "A" will be booted. The reason is that in step 2 we use CCW reipl and in step 3 we use DIAG308 (subcode 3) reipl. DIAG308 does not notice the CCW reipl and still thinks that it has to reboot DASD "A". Before applying this fix, ensure to have MCF RJ9967101E or z9 GA3 base driver installed. Signed-off-by: Michael Holzheu <holzheu@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

2008-01-26[S390] kernel: Shutdown Actions InterfaceMichael Holzheu
In case of a kernel panic it is currently possible to specify that a dump should be created, the system should be rebooted or stopped. Virtual sysfs files under the directory /sys/firmware/ are used for that configuration. In addition to that, there are kernel parameters 'vmhalt', 'vmpoff' and 'vmpanic', which can be used to specify z/VM commands, which are automatically executed in case of halt, power off or a kernel panic. This patch combines both functionalities and allows to specify the z/VM CP commands also via sysfs attributes. In addition to that, it enhances the existing handling of shutdown triggers (e.g. halt or panic) and associated shutdown actions (e.g. dump or reipl) and makes it more flexible.

2008-01-26[S390] Change vmalloc defintionsChristian Borntraeger
Currently the vmalloc area starts at a dynamic address depending on the memory size. There was also an 8MB security hole after the physical memory to catch out-of-bounds accesses. We can simplify the code by putting the vmalloc area explicitely at the top of the kernel mapping and setting the vmalloc size to a fixed value of 128MB/128GB for 31bit/64bit systems. Part of the vmalloc area will be used for the vmem_map. This leaves an area of 96MB/1GB for normal vmalloc allocations.

2008-01-26[S390] Fix tlb flushing with idte.Martin Schwidefsky
The clear-by-asce operation of the idte instruction gets an asce (address-space-control-element) as argument to specify which TLBs need to get flushed. The current code passes a plain pointer to the start of the pgd without the additional bits which would make the pointer an asce. The current machines don't mind the difference but a future model might want to use the designation type control bits in the asce as a filter for the TLBs to flush.

2008-01-26[S390] Standby cpu activation/deactivation.Heiko Carstens
Add a new interface so that cpus can be put into standby state and configured state. Only offline cpus can be put into standby state or configured state. For that the new percpu sysfs attribute "configure" must be used. To put a cpu in standby state a "0" must be written to the attribute. In order to switch it into configured state a "1" must be written to the attribute. Only cpus in configured state can be brought online. In addition this patch introduces a static mapping of physical to logical cpus. As a result only the sysfs directories of present cpus will be created. To scan for new cpus the new sysfs attribute "rescan" must be used. Writing to /sys/devices/system/cpu/rescan will trigger a rescan of cpus and will create directories for new cpus. On IPL only configured cpus will be used. And on reboot/shutdown all cpus will remain in their current state (configured/standby).

2007-11-09sched: restore deterministic CPU accounting on powerpcPaul Mackerras
Since powerpc started using CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, the deterministic CPU accounting (CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING) has been broken on powerpc, because we end up counting user time twice: once in timer_interrupt() and once in update_process_times(). This fixes the problem by pulling the code in update_process_times that updates utime and stime into a separate function called account_process_tick. If CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is not defined, there is a version of account_process_tick in kernel/timer.c that simply accounts a whole tick to either utime or stime as before. If CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is defined, then arch code gets to implement account_process_tick. This also lets us simplify the s390 code a bit; it means that the s390 timer interrupt can now call update_process_times even when CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is turned on, and can just implement a suitable account_process_tick(). account_process_tick() now takes the task_struct * as an argument. Tested both with and without CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2007-10-22[S390] tlb flush fix.Martin Schwidefsky
The current tlb flushing code for page table entries violates the s390 architecture in a small detail. The relevant section from the principles of operation (SA22-7832-02 page 3-47): "A valid table entry must not be changed while it is attached to any CPU and may be used for translation by that CPU except to (1) invalidate the entry by using INVALIDATE PAGE TABLE ENTRY or INVALIDATE DAT TABLE ENTRY, (2) alter bits 56-63 of a page-table entry, or (3) make a change by means of a COMPARE AND SWAP AND PURGE instruction that purges the TLB." That means if one thread of a multithreaded applciation uses a vma while another thread does an unmap on it, the page table entries of that vma needs to get removed with IPTE, IDTE or CSP. In some strange and rare situations a cpu could check-stop (die) because a entry has been pushed out of the TLB that is still needed to complete a (milli-coded) instruction. I've never seen it happen with the current code on any of the supported machines, so right now this is a theoretical problem. But I want to fix it nevertheless, to avoid headaches in the futures. To get this implemented correctly without changing common code the primitives ptep_get_and_clear, ptep_get_and_clear_full and ptep_set_wrprotect need to use the IPTE instruction to invalidate the pte before the new pte value gets stored. If IPTE is always used for the three primitives three important operations will have a performace hit: fork, mprotect and exit_mmap. Time for some workarounds: * 1: ptep_get_and_clear_full is used in unmap_vmas to remove page tables entries in a batched tlb gather operation. If the mmu_gather context passed to unmap_vmas has been started with full_mm_flush==1 or if only one cpu is online or if the only user of a mm_struct is the current process then the fullmm indication in the mmu_gather context is set to one. All TLBs for mm_struct are flushed by the tlb_gather_mmu call. No new TLBs can be created while the unmap is in progress. In this case ptep_get_and_clear_full clears the ptes with a simple store. * 2: ptep_get_and_clear is used in change_protection to clear the ptes from the page tables before they are reentered with the new access flags. At the end of the update flush_tlb_range clears the remaining TLBs. In general the ptep_get_and_clear has to issue IPTE for each pte and flush_tlb_range is a nop. But if there is only one user of the mm_struct then ptep_get_and_clear uses simple stores to do the update and flush_tlb_range will flush the TLBs. * 3: Similar to 2, ptep_set_wrprotect is used in copy_page_range for a fork to make all ptes of a cow mapping read-only. At the end of of copy_page_range dup_mmap will flush the TLBs with a call to flush_tlb_mm. Check for mm->mm_users and if there is only one user avoid using IPTE in ptep_set_wrprotect and let flush_tlb_mm clear the TLBs. Overall for single threaded programs the tlb flush code now performs better, for multi threaded programs it is slightly worse. In particular exit_mmap() now does a single IDTE for the mm and then just frees every page cache reference and every page table page directly without a delay over the mmu_gather structure.

2007-10-12[S390] s390: use PAGE_SIZE in vmlinux.ldsSam Ravnborg
Replace the hardcoded 4096 value with the PAGE_SIZE macro. Converted a few decimal numbers to readable hex numbers. Use of PAGE_SIZE required a small change to page.h to allow PAGE_SIZE to be used from assembler/linker scripts.

2007-10-12[S390] s390: beautify vmlinux.ldsSam Ravnborg
Introduce a consistent style in vmlinux.lds. This style is gradually being introduced for all archs. A few lables were moved inside the section definition so they are assigned the correct value of gcc decide to align the content to another address than the one . has. In the past this has fixed several bugs but for s390 it will not impact due to all the alignmnet already introduced. Stabs definitions are consolidated in asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h This patch also introduce support for DWARF - without knowing if this makes sense for s390.

After assigning values to specific registers memset was called. This may clobber the contents of the used registers. To solve this extract the two used inline assemblies into small functions that don't call any functions.
