The kernel build for s390 fails for gcc compilers with version 3.x, set the minimum required version of gcc to version 4.3. As the atomic builtins are available with all gcc 4.x compilers, use the __sync_val_compare_and_swap and __sync_bool_compare_and_swap functions to replace the complex macro and inline assembler magic in include/asm/cmpxchg.h. The compiler can just-do-it and generates better code with the builtins. While we are at it use __sync_bool_compare_and_swap for the _raw_compare_and_swap function in the spinlock code as well.

If the function tracer is enabled, allow to set kprobes on the first instruction of a function (which is the function trace caller): If no kprobe is set handling of enabling and disabling function tracing of a function simply patches the first instruction. Either it is a nop (right now it's an unconditional branch, which skips the mcount block), or it's a branch to the ftrace_caller() function. If a kprobe is being placed on a function tracer calling instruction we encode if we actually have a nop or branch in the remaining bytes after the breakpoint instruction (illegal opcode). This is possible, since the size of the instruction used for the nop and branch is six bytes, while the size of the breakpoint is only two bytes. Therefore the first two bytes contain the illegal opcode and the last four bytes contain either "0" for nop or "1" for branch. The kprobes code will then execute/simulate the correct instruction. Instruction patching for kprobes and function tracer is always done with stop_machine(). Therefore we don't have any races where an instruction is patched concurrently on a different cpu. Besides that also the program check handler which executes the function trace caller instruction won't be executed concurrently to any stop_machine() execution. This allows to keep full fault based kprobes handling which generates correct pt_regs contents automatically.

The current uaccess code uses a page table walk in some circumstances, e.g. in case of the in atomic futex operations or if running on old hardware which doesn't support the mvcos instruction. However it turned out that the page table walk code does not correctly lock page tables when accessing page table entries. In other words: a different cpu may invalidate a page table entry while the current cpu inspects the pte. This may lead to random data corruption. Adding correct locking however isn't trivial for all uaccess operations. Especially copy_in_user() is problematic since that requires to hold at least two locks, but must be protected against ABBA deadlock when a different cpu also performs a copy_in_user() operation. So the solution is a different approach where we change address spaces: User space runs in primary address mode, or access register mode within vdso code, like it currently already does. The kernel usually also runs in home space mode, however when accessing user space the kernel switches to primary or secondary address mode if the mvcos instruction is not available or if a compare-and-swap (futex) instruction on a user space address is performed. KVM however is special, since that requires the kernel to run in home address space while implicitly accessing user space with the sie instruction. So we end up with: User space: - runs in primary or access register mode - cr1 contains the user asce - cr7 contains the user asce - cr13 contains the kernel asce Kernel space: - runs in home space mode - cr1 contains the user or kernel asce -> the kernel asce is loaded when a uaccess requires primary or secondary address mode - cr7 contains the user or kernel asce, (changed with set_fs()) - cr13 contains the kernel asce In case of uaccess the kernel changes to: - primary space mode in case of a uaccess (copy_to_user) and uses e.g. the mvcp instruction to access user space. However the kernel will stay in home space mode if the mvcos instruction is available - secondary space mode in case of futex atomic operations, so that the instructions come from primary address space and data from secondary space In case of kvm the kernel runs in home space mode, but cr1 gets switched to contain the gmap asce before the sie instruction gets executed. When the sie instruction is finished cr1 will be switched back to contain the user asce. A context switch between two processes will always load the kernel asce for the next process in cr1. So the first exit to user space is a bit more expensive (one extra load control register instruction) than before, however keeps the code rather simple. In sum this means there is no need to perform any error prone page table walks anymore when accessing user space. The patch seems to be rather large, however it mainly removes the the page table walk code and restores the previously deleted "standard" uaccess code, with a couple of changes. The uaccess without mvcos mode can be enforced with the "uaccess_primary" kernel parameter.

Lets provide functions to prevent KVM from reentering SIE and to kick cpus out of SIE. We cannot use the common kvm_vcpu_kick code, since we need to kick out guests in places that hold architecture specific locks (e.g. pgste lock) which might be necessary on the other cpus - so no waiting possible. So lets provide a bit in a private field of the sie control block that acts as a gate keeper, after we claimed we are in SIE. Please note that we do not reuse prog0c, since we want to access that bit without atomic ops.

The current virtual timer interface is inherently per-cpu and hard to use. The sole user of the interface is appldata which uses it to execute a function after a specific amount of cputime has been used over all cpus. Rework the virtual timer interface to hook into the cputime accounting. This makes the interface independent from the CPU timer interrupts, and makes the virtual timers global as opposed to per-cpu. Overall the code is greatly simplified. The downside is that the accuracy is not as good as the original implementation, but it is still good enough for appldata.

Setting the cpu restart parameters is done in three different fashions: - directly setting the four parameters individually - copying the four parameters with memcpy (using 4 * sizeof(long)) - copying the four parameters using a private structure In addition code in entry*.S relies on a certain order of the restart members of struct _lowcore. Make all of this more robust to future changes by adding a mem_absolute_assign(dest, val) define, which assigns val to dest using absolute addressing mode. Also the load multiple instructions in entry*.S have been split into separate load instruction so the order of the struct _lowcore members doesn't matter anymore. In addition move the prototypes of memcpy_real/absolute from uaccess.h to processor.h. These memcpy* variants are not related to uaccess at all. string.h doesn't seem to match as well, so lets use processor.h. Also replace the eight byte array in struct _lowcore which represents a misaliged u64 with a u64. The compiler will always create code that handles the misaligned u64 correctly.

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.

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.

For a ERESTARTNOHAND/ERESTARTSYS/ERESTARTNOINTR restarting system call do_signal will prepare the restart of the system call with a rewind of the PSW before calling get_signal_to_deliver (where the debugger might take control). For A ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK restarting system call do_signal will set -EINTR as return code. There are two issues with this approach: 1) strace never sees ERESTARTNOHAND, ERESTARTSYS, ERESTARTNOINTR or ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK as the rewinding already took place or the return code has been changed to -EINTR 2) if get_signal_to_deliver does not return with a signal to deliver the restart via the repeat of the svc instruction is left in place. This opens a race if another signal is made pending before the system call instruction can be reexecuted. The original system call will be restarted even if the second signal would have ended the system call with -EINTR. These two issues can be solved by dropping the early rewind of the system call before get_signal_to_deliver has been called and by using the TIF_RESTART_SVC magic to do the restart if no signal has to be delivered. The only situation where the system call restart via the repeat of the svc instruction is appropriate is when a SA_RESTART signal is delivered to user space. Unfortunately this breaks inferior calls by the debugger again. The system call number and the length of the system call instruction is lost over the inferior call and user space will see ERESTARTNOHAND/ ERESTARTSYS/ERESTARTNOINTR/ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK. To correct this a new ptrace interface is added to save/restore the system call number and system call instruction length. Signed-off-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

Add code that allows KVM to control the virtual memory layout that is seen by a guest. The guest address space uses a second page table that shares the last level pte-tables with the process page table. If a page is unmapped from the process page table it is automatically unmapped from the guest page table as well. The guest address space mapping starts out empty, KVM can map any individual 1MB segments from the process virtual memory to any 1MB aligned location in the guest virtual memory. If a target segment in the process virtual memory does not exist or is unmapped while a guest mapping exists the desired target address is stored as an invalid segment table entry in the guest page table. The population of the guest page table is fault driven. Signed-off-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

The result is that we end up with uninterruptible processes where the interrupt that would wake up these processes never arrives.

The noexec support on s390 does not rely on a bit in the page table entry but utilizes the secondary space mode to distinguish between memory accesses for instructions vs. data. The noexec code relies on the assumption that the cpu will always use the secondary space page table for data accesses while it is running in the secondary space mode. Up to the z9-109 class machines this has been the case. Unfortunately this is not true anymore with z10 and later machines. The load-relative-long instructions lrl, lgrl and lgfrl access the memory operand using the same addressing-space mode that has been used to fetch the instruction. This breaks the noexec mode for all user space binaries compiled with march=z10 or later. The only option is to remove the current noexec support.
