      [S390] kernel: Add z/VM LGR detection · 3ab121ab
      Michael Holzheu 提交于
      Currently the following mechanisms are available to move active
      Linux on System z instances between machines:
      * z/VM 6.2 SSI (Single System Image)
      * Suspend/resume
      For moving Linux instances in this patch the term LGR (Linux Guest
      Relocation) is used. Because such an operation is critical, it
      should be detectable from Linux. With this patch for both, a live
      system and a kernel dump, the information about LGRs is accessible.
      To identify a guest, stsi and stfle data is used. A new function
      lgr_info_log() compares the current data (lgr_info_cur) with the
      last recorded one (lgr_info_last). In case the two data sets differ,
      lgr_info_cur is logged to the "lgr" s390dbf.
      
      The following trigger points call lgr_info_log():
      * panic
      * die
      * kdump
      * LGR timer
      * PSW restart
      * QDIO recovery
      * resume
      
      This patch also changes the s390dbf hex_ascii view. Now only printable ASCII
      characters are shown.

      [S390] irq: external interrupt code passing · fde15c3a
      Heiko Carstens 提交于
      The external interrupt handlers have a parameter called ext_int_code.
      Besides the name this paramter does not only contain the ext_int_code
      but in addition also the "cpu address" (POP) which caused the external
      interrupt.
      To make the code a bit more obvious pass a struct instead so the called
      function can easily distinguish between external interrupt code and
      cpu address. The cpu address field however is named "subcode" since
      some external interrupt sources do not pass a cpu address but a
      different parameter (or none at all).

      [S390] irq: set __ARCH_IRQ_EXIT_IRQS_DISABLED · 2215011d
      Heiko Carstens 提交于
      Set __ARCH_IRQ_EXIT_IRQS_DISABLED in order to optimize irq_exit() a
      bit, since we call __do_softirq() instead of do_softirq().
      This saves several needless checks, pointless interrupt disabling
      and an extra branch.
      If do_softirq() gets called from process context we still switch to
      the async stack.

      [S390] rework idle code · 4c1051e3
      Martin Schwidefsky 提交于
      Whenever the cpu loads an enabled wait PSW it will appear as idle to the
      underlying host system. The code in default_idle calls vtime_stop_cpu
      which does the necessary voodoo to get the cpu time accounting right.
      The udelay code just loads an enabled wait PSW. To correct this rework
      the vtime_stop_cpu/vtime_start_cpu logic and move the difficult parts
      to entry[64].S, vtime_stop_cpu can now be called from anywhere and
      vtime_start_cpu is gone. The correction of the cpu time during wakeup
      from an enabled wait PSW is done with a critical section in entry[64].S.
      As vtime_start_cpu is gone, s390_idle_check can be removed as well.

      [S390] rework smp code · 8b646bd7
      Martin Schwidefsky 提交于
      Define struct pcpu and merge some of the NR_CPUS arrays into it, including
      __cpu_logical_map, current_set and smp_cpu_state. Split smp related
      functions to those operating on physical cpus and the functions operating
      on a logical cpu number. Make the functions for physical cpus use a
      pointer to a struct pcpu. This hides the knowledge about cpu addresses in
      smp.c, entry[64].S and swsusp_asm64.S, thus remove the sigp.h header.
      
      The PSW restart mechanism is used to start secondary cpus, calling a
      function on an online cpu, calling a function on the ipl cpu, and for
      the nmi signal. Replace the different assembler functions with a
      single function restart_int_handler. The new entry point calls a function
      whose pointer is stored in the lowcore of the target cpu and it can wait
      for the source cpu to stop. This covers all existing use cases.
      
      Overall the code is now simpler and there are ~380 lines less code.

      sys_poll: fix incorrect type for 'timeout' parameter · faf30900
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      The 'poll()' system call timeout parameter is supposed to be 'int', not
      'long'.
      
      Now, the reason this matters is that right now 32-bit compat mode is
      broken on at least x86-64, because the 32-bit code just calls
      'sys_poll()' directly on x86-64, and the 32-bit argument will have been
      zero-extended, turning a signed 'int' into a large unsigned 'long'
      value.
      
      We could just introduce a 'compat_sys_poll()' function for this, and
      that may eventually be what we have to do, but since the actual standard
      poll() semantics is *supposed* to be 'int', and since at least on x86-64
      glibc sign-extends the argument before invocing the system call (so
      nobody can actually use a 64-bit timeout value in user space _anyway_,
      even in 64-bit binaries), the simpler solution would seem to be to just
      fix the definition of the system call to match what it should have been
      from the very start.
      
      If it turns out that somebody somehow circumvents the user-level libc
      64-bit sign extension and actually uses a large unsigned 64-bit timeout
      despite that not being how poll() is supposed to work, we will need to
      do the compat_sys_poll() approach.

      which requires knowledge about audit (the existance of audit_context) in

      Audit: push audit success and retcode into arch ptrace.h · d7e7528b
      Eric Paris 提交于
      The audit system previously expected arches calling to audit_syscall_exit to
      supply as arguments if the syscall was a success and what the return code was.
      Audit also provides a helper AUDITSC_RESULT which was supposed to simplify things
      by converting from negative retcodes to an audit internal magic value stating
      success or failure.  This helper was wrong and could indicate that a valid
      pointer returned to userspace was a failed syscall.  The fix is to fix the
      layering foolishness.  We now pass audit_syscall_exit a struct pt_reg and it
      in turns calls back into arch code to collect the return value and to
      determine if the syscall was a success or failure.  We also define a generic
      is_syscall_success() macro which determines success/failure based on if the
      value is < -MAX_ERRNO.  This works for arches like x86 which do not use a
      separate mechanism to indicate syscall failure.
      
      We make both the is_syscall_success() and regs_return_value() static inlines
      instead of macros.  The reason is because the audit function must take a void*
      for the regs.  (uml calls theirs struct uml_pt_regs instead of just struct
      pt_regs so audit_syscall_exit can't take a struct pt_regs).  Since the audit
      function takes a void* we need to use static inlines to cast it back to the
      arch correct structure to dereference it.
      
      The other major change is that on some arches, like ia64, MIPS and ppc, we
      change regs_return_value() to give us the negative value on syscall failure.
      THE only other user of this macro, kretprobe_example.c, won't notice and it
      makes the value signed consistently for the audit functions across all archs.
      
      In arch/sh/kernel/ptrace_64.c I see that we were using regs[9] in the old
      audit code as the return value.  But the ptrace_64.h code defined the macro
      regs_return_value() as regs[3].  I have no idea which one is correct, but this
      patch now uses the regs_return_value() function, so it now uses regs[3].
      
      For powerpc we previously used regs->result but now use the
      regs_return_value() function which uses regs->gprs[3].  regs->gprs[3] is
      always positive so the regs_return_value(), much like ia64 makes it negative
      before calling the audit code when appropriate.

      procfs: do not confuse jiffies with cputime64_t · 34845636
      Andreas Schwab 提交于
      Commit 2a95ea6c ("procfs: do not overflow get_{idle,iowait}_time
      for nohz") did not take into account that one some architectures jiffies
      and cputime use different units.
      
      This causes get_idle_time() to return numbers in the wrong units, making
      the idle time fields in /proc/stat wrong.
      
      Instead of converting the usec value returned by
      get_cpu_{idle,iowait}_time_us to units of jiffies, use the new function
      usecs_to_cputime64 to convert it to the correct unit of cputime64_t.
