There are a lot of embedded systems that run most or all of their functionality in init, running as root:root. For these systems, supporting multiple users is not necessary. This patch adds a new symbol, CONFIG_MULTIUSER, that makes support for non-root users, non-root groups, and capabilities optional. It is enabled under CONFIG_EXPERT menu. When this symbol is not defined, UID and GID are zero in any possible case and processes always have all capabilities. The following syscalls are compiled out: setuid, setregid, setgid, setreuid, setresuid, getresuid, setresgid, getresgid, setgroups, getgroups, setfsuid, setfsgid, capget, capset. Also, groups.c is compiled out completely. In kernel/capability.c, capable function was moved in order to avoid adding two ifdef blocks. This change saves about 25 KB on a defconfig build. The most minimal kernels have total text sizes in the high hundreds of kB rather than low MB. (The 25k goes down a bit with allnoconfig, but not that much. The kernel was booted in Qemu. All the common functionalities work. Adding users/groups is not possible, failing with -ENOSYS.

When an architecture fully supports randomizing the ELF load location, a per-arch mmap_rnd() function is used to find a randomized mmap base. In preparation for randomizing the location of ET_DYN binaries separately from mmap, this renames and exports these functions as arch_mmap_rnd(). Additionally introduces CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ELF_RANDOMIZE for describing this feature on architectures that support it (which is a superset of ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE, since s390 already supports a separated ET_DYN ASLR from mmap ASLR without the ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE logic).

Remove the 31 bit support in order to reduce maintenance cost and effectively remove dead code. Since a couple of years there is no distribution left that comes with a 31 bit kernel. The 31 bit kernel also has been broken since more than a year before anybody noticed. In addition I added a removal warning to the kernel shown at ipl for 5 minutes: a960062e ("s390: add 31 bit warning message") which let everybody know about the plan to remove 31 bit code. We didn't get any response. Given that the last 31 bit only machine was introduced in 1999 let's remove the code. Anybody with 31 bit user space code can still use the compat mode.

The multi-threading facility is introduced with the z13 processor family. This patch adds code to detect the multi-threading facility. With the facility enabled each core will surface multiple hardware threads to the system. Each hardware threads looks like a normal CPU to the operating system with all its registers and properties. The SCLP interface reports the SMT topology indirectly via the maximum thread id. Each reported CPU in the result of a read-scp-information is a core representing a number of hardware threads. To reflect the reduced CPU capacity if two hardware threads run on a single core the MT utilization counter set is used to normalize the raw cputime obtained by the CPU timer deltas. This scaled cputime is reported via the taskstats interface. The normal /proc/stat numbers are based on the raw cputime and are not affected by the normalization.

This code is based on a patch from Vojtech Pavlik. http://marc.info/?l=linux-s390&m=140438885114413&w=2 The actual implementation now differs significantly: Instead of adding a second function "ftrace_regs_caller" which would be nearly identical to the existing ftrace_caller function, the current ftrace_caller function is now an alias to ftrace_regs_caller and always passes the needed pt_regs structure and function_trace_op parameters unconditionally. Besides that also use asm offsets to correctly allocate and access the new struct pt_regs on the stack. While at it we can make use of new instruction to get rid of some indirect loads if compiled for new machines. The passed struct pt_regs can be changed by the called function and it's new contents will replace the current contents. Note: to change the return address the embedded psw member of the pt_regs structure must be changed. The psw member is right now incomplete, since the mask part is missing. For all current use cases this should be sufficent. Providing and restoring a sane mask would mean we need to add an epsw/lpswe pair to the mcount code. Only these two instruction would cost us ~120 cycles which currently seems not necessary.

Patches to unify some of the DMA API would like to rely on the dma_alloc_attrs() and dma_free_attrs() functions to be provided when an architecture supports DMA attributes. Rename dma_alloc_coherent() and dma_free_coherent() to dma_alloc_attrs() and dma_free_attrs() since they are functionally equivalent and alias the former to the latter for compatibility. For consistency with other architectures, also reuse the existing symbol HAVE_DMA_ATTRS defined in arch/Kconfig instead of providing a duplicate. Select it when PCI is enabled.

The non-scalar ktime_t implementation is basically a timespec which has to be changed to support dates past 2038 on 32bit systems. This patch removes the non-scalar ktime_t implementation, forcing the scalar s64 nanosecond version on all architectures. This may have additional performance overhead on some 32bit systems when converting between ktime_t and timespec structures, however the majority of 32bit systems (arm and i386) were already using scalar ktime_t, so no performance regressions will be seen on those platforms. On affected platforms, I'm open to finding optimizations, including avoiding converting to timespecs where possible.

Just like all other architectures we should use out-of-line find bit operations, since the inline variant bloat the size of the kernel image. And also like all other architecures we should only supply optimized variants of the __ffs, ffs, etc. primitives. Therefore this patch removes the inlined s390 find bit functions and uses the generic out-of-line variants instead. The optimization of the primitives follows with the next patch. With this patch also the functions find_first_bit_left() and find_next_bit_left() have been reimplemented, since logically, they are nothing else but a find_first_bit()/find_next_bit() implementation that use an inverted __fls() instead of __ffs(). Also the restriction that these functions only work on machines which support the "flogr" instruction is gone now. This reduces the size of the kernel image (defconfig, -march=z9-109) by 144,482 bytes. Alone the size of the function build_sched_domains() gets reduced from 7 KB to 3,5 KB. We also git rid of unused functions like find_first_bit_le()... Signed-off-by: NHeiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

Enable ARCH_USE_CMPXCHG_LOCKREF since it shows performance improvements with Linus' simple stat() test case of up to 50% on a 30 cpu system. Signed-off-by: NHeiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com>

Linus suggested to replace #ifndef CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_MUTEX_CPU_RELAX #define arch_mutex_cpu_relax() cpu_relax() #endif with just a simple #ifndef arch_mutex_cpu_relax # define arch_mutex_cpu_relax() cpu_relax() #endif to get rid of CONFIG_HAVE_CPU_RELAX_SIMPLE. So architectures can simply define arch_mutex_cpu_relax if they want an architecture specific function instead of having to add a select statement in their Kconfig in addition.
