commit 1f6b83e5 ("s390: avoid z13 cache aliasing") checks for the machine type to optimize address space randomization and zero page allocation to avoid cache aliases. This check might fail under a hypervisor with migration support. z/VMs "Single System Image and Live Guest Relocation" facility will "fake" the machine type of the oldest system in the group. For example in a group of zEC12 and Z13 the guest appears to run on a zEC12 (architecture fencing within the relocation domain) Remove the machine type detection and always use cache aliasing rules that are known to work for all machines. These are the z13 aliasing rules.

The input buffer in reipl_fcp_scpdata_write is accessed out of bounds when an offset is specified. The problem is that the offset refers to the data we should write to and not to the buffer we read from. So instead of memcpy(scp_data, buf + off, count); we could just do memcpy(scp_data + off, buf, count); However we not only modify the data but also store its length. For this to work we'd need to remember a state per open FH. Since that's not possible with sysfs callbacks let's just fail when an offset is specified.

startup calls the C function _sclp_print_early() if the machine we're running on is not supported by the kernel. sclp.c is getting built with -m64, so _sclp_print_early() expects the zSeries ELF ABI to be used. We previously called _sclp_print_early() using the S/390 ELF ABI, with a stack frame size of 96 bytes and while being in 31-bit address mode. This caused _sclp_wait_int() (called indirectly from _sclp_print_early()) to jump to an undefined address. While _sclp_wait_int() contained some code to deal with being called in 31-bit addressing mode, it didn't quite work. While fixing this is possible, the code would still only work by chance and could break any time. Ensure compliance with the zSeries ELF ABI by switching to 64-bit addressing mode early and using a minimum stack frame size of 160 bytes.

s390_handle_damage() has character string parameter which was used as a pointer to verbose error message. The hope was (a lot of years ago) when analyzing dumps that register R2 would still contain the pointer and therefore it would be rather easy to tell what went wrong. However gcc optimizes the strings away since a long time. And even if it wouldn't it is necessary to have a close look at the machine check interruption code to tell what's wrong.

The first level machine check handler for etr and stp machine checks may call queue_work() while in nmi context. This may deadlock e.g. if the machine check happened when the interrupted context did hold a lock, that also will be acquired by queue_work(). Therefore split etr and stp machine check handling into first and second level handling. The second level handling will then issue the queue_work() call in process context which avoids the potential deadlock.

When using systemtap it was observed that our udelay implementation is rather suboptimal if being called from a kprobe handler installed by systemtap. The problem observed when a kprobe was installed on lock_acquired(). When the probe was hit the kprobe handler did call udelay, which set up an (internal) timer and reenabled interrupts (only the clock comparator interrupt) and waited for the interrupt. This is an optimization to avoid that the cpu is busy looping while waiting that enough time passes. The problem is that the interrupt handler still does call irq_enter()/irq_exit() which then again can lead to a deadlock, since some accounting functions may take locks as well. If one of these locks is the same, which caused lock_acquired() to be called, we have a nice deadlock. This patch reworks the udelay code for the interrupts disabled case to immediately leave the low level interrupt handler when the clock comparator interrupt happens. That way no C code is being called and the deadlock cannot happen anymore.

The program parameter can be used to mark hardware samples with some token. Previously, it was used to mark guest samples only. Improve the program parameter doubleword by combining two parts, the leftmost LPP part and the rightmost PID part. Set the PID part for processes by using the task PID. To distinguish host and guest samples for the kernel (PID part is zero), the guest must always set the program paramater to a non-zero value. Use the leftmost bit in the LPP part of the program parameter to be able to detect guest kernel samples. [brueckner@linux.vnet.ibm.com]: Split __LC_CURRENT and introduced __LC_LPP.

Various functions in entry.S perform test-under-mask instructions to test for particular bits in memory. Because test-under-mask uses a mask value of one byte, the mask value and the offset into the memory must be calculated manually. This easily introduces errors and is hard to review and read. Introduce the TSTMSK assembler macro to specify a mask constant and let the macro calculate the offset and the byte mask to generate a test-under-mask instruction. The benefit is that existing symbolic constants can now be used for tests. Also the macro checks for zero mask values and mask values that consist of multiple bytes.

The scaled cputime is supposed to be derived from the normal per-thread cputime by dividing it with the average thread density in the last interval. The calculation of the scaling values for the average thread density is incorrect. The current, incorrect calculation: Ci = cycle count with i active threads T = unscaled cputime, sT = scaled cputime sT = T * (C1 + C2 + ... + Cn) / (1*C1 + 2*C2 + ... + n*Cn) The calculation happens to yield the correct numbers for the simple cases with only one Ci value not zero. But for cases with multiple Ci values not zero it fails. E.g. on a SMT-2 system with one thread active half the time and two threads active for the other half of the time it fails, the scaling factor should be 3/4 but the formula gives 2/3. The correct formula is sT = T * (C1/1 + C2/2 + ... + Cn/n) / (C1 + C2 + ... + Cn) Signed-off-by: NMartin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

The uc_sigmask in the ucontext structure is an array of words to keep the 64 signal bits (or 1024 if you ask glibc but the kernel sigset_t only has 64 bits). For 64 bit the sigset_t contains a single 8 byte word, but for 31 bit there are two 4 byte words. The compat signal handler code uses a simple copy of the 64 bit sigset_t to the 31 bit compat_sigset_t. As s390 is a big-endian architecture this is incorrect, the two words in the 31 bit sigset_t array need to be swapped.
