x86 will wire up all syscalls reachable via sys_socketcall. Therefore this will yield a lot of warnings from the checksyscalls.sh scripts on s390 where we currently don't wire them up directly. This might change in the future, but this needs to be done carefully in order to not break anything. For the time being just tell the checksyscalls script to ignore the missing syscalls on s390.

NUMA emulation (aka fake NUMA) distributes the available memory to nodes without using real topology information about the physical memory of the machine. Splitting the system memory into nodes replicates the memory management structures for each node. Particularly each node has its own "mm locks" and its own "kswapd" task. For large systems, under certain conditions, this results in improved system performance and/or latency based on reduced pressure on the mm locks and the kswapd tasks. NUMA emulation distributes CPUs to nodes while respecting the original machine topology information. This is done by trying to avoid to separate CPUs which reside on the same book or even on the same MC. Because the current Linux scheduler code requires a stable cpu to node mapping, cores are pinned to nodes when the first CPU thread is set online. This patch is based on the initial implementation from Philipp Hachtmann. Signed-off-by: NMichael Holzheu <holzheu@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

NUMA emulation needs proper means to mangle the book/mc/core topology of the machine.

A hardware problem on a FICON link is reported by the Channel Subsystem to the operating system via a Link Incident Record (LIR). In response, the operating system should issue a message that enables hardware service personnel to identify and repair the failing component. Current Linux LIR handling is broken because LIR data is incorrectly interpreted and no log message is generated. This patch fixes Linux LIR handling by implementing a new log message for LIRs indicating a degraded or non-operational link. Also LIRs are no longer used to deactivate channel paths because the available data does not reliably allow to determine the affected channel path.

If a machine checks is received while the CPU is in the kernel, only the s390_do_machine_check function will be called. The call to s390_handle_mcck is postponed until the CPU returns to user space.

Currently there are two mechanisms to deal with cleanup work due to interrupts. The HANDLE_SIE_INTERCEPT macro is used to undo the changes required to enter SIE in sie64a. If the SIE instruction causes a program check, or an asynchronous interrupt is received the HANDLE_SIE_INTERCEPT code forwards the program execution to sie_exit. All the other critical sections in entry.S are handled by the code in cleanup_critical that is called by the SWITCH_ASYNC macro. Move the sie64a function to the beginning of the critical section and add the code from HANDLE_SIE_INTERCEPT to cleanup_critical. Add a special case for the sie64a cleanup to the program check handler. Signed-off-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

The HANDLE_SIE_INTERCEPT macro is used in the interrupt handlers and the program check handler to undo a few changes done by sie64a. Among them are guest vs host LPP, the gmap ASCE vs kernel ASCE and the bit that indicates that SIE is currently running on the CPU. There is a race of a voluntary SIE exit vs asynchronous interrupts. If the CPU completed the SIE instruction and the TM instruction of the LPP macro at the time it receives an interrupt, the interrupt handler will run while the LPP, the ASCE and the SIE bit are still set up for guest execution. This might result in wrong sampling data, but it will not cause data corruption or lockups. The critical section in sie64a needs to be enlarged to include all instructions that undo the changes required for guest execution. Signed-off-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

Improve the save and restore behavior of FPU register contents to use the vector extension within the kernel. The kernel does not use floating-point or vector registers and, therefore, saving and restoring the FPU register contents are performed for handling signals or switching processes only. To prepare for using vector instructions and vector registers within the kernel, enhance the save behavior and implement a lazy restore at return to user space from a system call or interrupt. To implement the lazy restore, the save_fpu_regs() sets a CPU information flag, CIF_FPU, to indicate that the FPU registers must be restored. Saving and setting CIF_FPU is performed in an atomic fashion to be interrupt-safe. When the kernel wants to use the vector extension or wants to change the FPU register state for a task during signal handling, the save_fpu_regs() must be called first. The CIF_FPU flag is also set at process switch. At return to user space, the FPU state is restored. In particular, the FPU state includes the floating-point or vector register contents, as well as, vector-enablement and floating-point control. The FPU state restore and clearing CIF_FPU is also performed in an atomic fashion. For KVM, the restore of the FPU register state is performed when restoring the general-purpose guest registers before the SIE instructions is started. Because the path towards the SIE instruction is interruptible, the CIF_FPU flag must be checked again right before going into SIE. If set, the guest registers must be reloaded again by re-entering the outer SIE loop. This is the same behavior as if the SIE critical section is interrupted.

The kvm_arch_vcpu_load() does not validate whether the floating-point control (FPC) is valid. Further, the return code of the restore is not checked too. If the FPC is invalid, the restore fails and the host FPC value might remain. The correct behavior would be to clear the FPC if it is not valid. Hence, validate the FPC value and, optionally, reset the value before restoring it.
