s390/fpu: move, rename, and merge header files Move, rename, and merge the fpu and vx header files. This way fpu header files have a consistent naming scheme (fpu*.h). Also get rid of the fpu subdirectory and move header files to asm directory, so that all fpu and vx header files can be found at the same location. Merge internal.h header file into other header files, since the internal helpers are used at many locations. so those helper functions are really not internal.

s390/fpu: get rid of MACHINE_HAS_VX Get rid of MACHINE_HAS_VX and replace it with cpu_has_vx() which is a short readable wrapper for "test_facility(129)". Facility bit 129 is set if the vector facility is present. test_facility() returns also true for all bits which are set in the architecture level set of the cpu that the kernel is compiled for. This means that test_facility(129) is a compile time constant which returns true for z13 and later, since the vector facility bit is part of the z13 kernel ALS. In result the compiled code will have less runtime checks, and less code.

s390/mm: simplify kernel mapping setup The kernel mapping is setup in two stages: in the decompressor map all pages with RWX permissions, and within the kernel change all mappings to their final permissions, where most of the mappings are changed from RWX to RWNX. Change this and map all pages RWNX from the beginning, however without enabling noexec via control register modification. This means that effectively all pages are used with RWX permissions like before. When the final permissions have been applied to the kernel mapping enable noexec via control register modification.

It used to be possible quite some time ago. That commit prevented confusion with uncompressed vmlinux image starting to boot and even printing kernel messages until it crashed. Users might have tried to report the problem without realizing they are doing something which was not intended. Since commit f1d3c5323772 ("s390/boot: move sclp early buffer from fixed address in asm to C") check_image_bootable() doesn't function properly anymore, as well as booting uncompressed vmlinux image in qemu doesn't really produce any output and crashes.

s390/mm: add support for RDP (Reset DAT-Protection) RDP instruction allows to reset DAT-protection bit in a PTE, with less CPU synchronization overhead than IPTE instruction. In particular, IPTE can cause machine-wide synchronization overhead, and excessive IPTE usage can negatively impact machine performance. RDP can be used instead of IPTE, if the new PTE only differs in SW bits and _PAGE_PROTECT HW bit, for PTE protection changes from RO to RW. SW PTE bit changes are allowed, e.g. for dirty and young tracking, but none of the other HW-defined part of the PTE must change. This is because the architecture forbids such changes to an active and valid PTE, which is why invalidation with IPTE is always used first, before writing a new entry. The RDP optimization helps mainly for fault-driven SW dirty-bit tracking. Writable PTEs are initially always mapped with HW _PAGE_PROTECT bit set, to allow SW dirty-bit accounting on first write protection fault, where the DAT-protection would then be reset. The reset is now done with RDP instead of IPTE, if RDP instruction is available. RDP cannot always guarantee that the DAT-protection reset is propagated to all CPUs immediately. This means that spurious TLB protection faults on other CPUs can now occur. For this, common code provides a flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault() handler, which will now be used to do a CPU-local TLB flush. However, this will clear the whole TLB of a CPU, and not just the affected entry. For more fine-grained flushing, by simply doing a (local) RDP again, flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault() would need to also provide the PTE pointer. Note that spurious TLB protection faults cannot really be distinguished from racing pagetable updates, where another thread already installed the correct PTE. In such a case, the local TLB flush would be unnecessary overhead, but overall reduction of CPU synchronization overhead by not using IPTE is still expected to be beneficial.

s390/mm: start kernel with DAT enabled The setup of the kernel virtual address space is spread throughout the sources, boot stages and config options like this: 1. The available physical memory regions are queried and stored as mem_detect information for later use in the decompressor. 2. Based on the physical memory availability the virtual memory layout is established in the decompressor; 3. If CONFIG_KASAN is disabled the kernel paging setup code populates kernel pgtables and turns DAT mode on. It uses the information stored at step [1]. 4. If CONFIG_KASAN is enabled the kernel early boot kasan setup populates kernel pgtables and turns DAT mode on. It uses the information stored at step [1]. The kasan setup creates early_pg_dir directory and directly overwrites swapper_pg_dir entries to make shadow memory pages available. Move the kernel virtual memory setup to the decompressor and start the kernel with DAT turned on right from the very first istruction. That completely eliminates the boot phase when the kernel runs in DAT-off mode, simplies the overall design and consolidates pgtables setup. The identity mapping is created in the decompressor, while kasan shadow mappings are still created by the early boot kernel code. Share with decompressor the existing kasan memory allocator. It decreases the size of a newly requested memory block from pgalloc_pos and ensures that kernel image is not overwritten. pgalloc_low and pgalloc_pos pointers are made preserved boot variables for that. Use the bootdata infrastructure to setup swapper_pg_dir and invalid_pg_dir directories used by the kernel later. The interim early_pg_dir directory established by the kasan initialization code gets eliminated as result. As the kernel runs in DAT-on mode only the PSW_KERNEL_BITS define gets PSW_MASK_DAT bit by default. Additionally, the setup_lowcore_dat_off() and setup_lowcore_dat_on() routines get merged, since there is no DAT-off mode stage anymore. The memory mappings are created with RW+X protection that allows the early boot code setting up all necessary data and services for the kernel being booted. Just before the paging is enabled the memory protection is changed to RO+X for text, RO+NX for read-only data and RW+NX for kernel data and the identity mapping.

Currently it is not a problem, since virtual and physical addresses on s390 are the same. Nevertheless, should they ever differ, this would cause an invalid pointer access.

s390: support command lines longer than 896 bytes Currently s390 supports a fixed maximum command line length of 896 bytes. This isn't enough as some installers are trying to pass all configuration data via kernel command line, and even with zfcp alone it is easy to generate really long command lines. Therefore extend the command line to 4 kbytes. In the parm area where the command line is stored there is no indication of the maximum allowed length, so a new field which contains the maximum length is added. The parm area has always been initialized to zero, so with old kernels this field would read zero. This is important because tools like zipl could read this field. If it contains a number larger than zero zipl knows the maximum length that can be stored in the parm area, otherwise it must assume that it is booting a legacy kernel and only 896 bytes are available. The removing of trailing whitespace in head.S is also removed because code to do this is already present in setup_boot_command_line().

s390: make PCI mio support a machine flag Kernel support for the newer PCI mio instructions can be toggled off with the pci=nomio command line option which needs to integrate with common code PCI option parsing. However this option then toggles static branches which can't be toggled yet in an early_param() call. Thus commit 9964f396f1d0 ("s390: fix setting of mio addressing control") moved toggling the static branches to the PCI init routine. With this setup however we can't check for mio support outside the PCI code during early boot, i.e. before switching the static branches, which we need to be able to export this as an ELF HWCAP. Improve on this by turning mio availability into a machine flag that gets initially set based on CONFIG_PCI and the facility bit and gets toggled off if pci=nomio is found during PCI option parsing allowing simple access to this machine flag after early init.

s390: remove unused s390_base_ext_handler s390_base_ext_handler_fn haven't been used since its introduction in commit ab14de6c37fa ("[S390] Convert memory detection into C code."). s390_base_ext_handler itself is currently falsely storing 16 registers at __LC_SAVE_AREA_ASYNC rewriting several following lowcore values: cpu_flags, return_psw, return_mcck_psw, sync_enter_timer and async_enter_timer. Besides that s390_base_ext_handler itself is only potentially hiding EXT interrupts which should not have happen in the first place. Any piece of code which requires EXT interrupts before fully functional ext_int_handler is enabled has to do it on its own, like this is done by sclp_early_cmd() which is doing EXT interrupts handling synchronously in sclp_early_wait_irq(). With s390_base_ext_handler removed unexpected EXT interrupt leads to disabled wait with the address 0x1b0 (__LC_EXT_NEW_PSW), which is currently setup in the decompressor.

s390/kasan: fix early pgm check handler execution Currently if early_pgm_check_handler is called it ends up in pgm check loop. The problem is that early_pgm_check_handler is instrumented by KASAN but executed without DAT flag enabled which leads to addressing exception when KASAN checks try to access shadow memory. Fix that by executing early handlers with DAT flag on under KASAN as expected.

s390: remove last diag 0x44 caller diag 0x44 is a voluntary undirected yield of a virtual CPU. This has caused a lot of performance issues in the past. There is only one caller left, and that one is only executed if diag 0x9c (directed yield) is not present. Given that all hypervisors implement diag 0x9c anyway, remove the last diag 0x44 to avoid that more callers will be added. Worst case that could happen now, if diag 0x9c is not present, is that a virtual CPU would loop a bit instead of giving its time slice up. diag 0x44 statistics in debugfs are kept and will always be zero, so that user space can tell that there are no calls.

s390: clean .bss before running uncompressed kernel Clean uncompressed kernel .bss section in the startup code before the uncompressed kernel is executed. At this point of time initrd and certificates have been already rescued. Uncompressed kernel .bss size is known from vmlinux_info. It is also taken into consideration during uncompressed kernel positioning by kaslr (so it is safe to clean it). With that uncompressed kernel is starting with .bss section zeroed and no .bss section usage restrictions apply. Which makes chkbss checks for uncompressed kernel objects obsolete and they can be removed. early_nobss.c is also not needed anymore. Parts of it which are still relevant are moved to early.c. Kasan initialization code is now called directly from head64 (early.c is instrumented and should not be executed before kasan shadow memory is set up).

s390: simplify disabled_wait The disabled_wait() function uses its argument as the PSW address when it stops the CPU with a wait PSW that is disabled for interrupts. The different callers sometimes use a specific number like 0xdeadbeef to indicate a specific failure, the early boot code uses 0 and some other calls sites use __builtin_return_address(0). At the time a dump is created the current PSW and the registers of a CPU are written to lowcore to make them avaiable to the dump analysis tool. For a CPU stopped with disabled_wait the PSW and the registers do not really make sense together, the PSW address does not point to the function the registers belong to. Simplify disabled_wait() by using _THIS_IP_ for the PSW address and drop the argument to the function. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

s390/kernel: introduce .dma sections With a relocatable kernel that could reside at any place in memory, code and data that has to stay below 2 GB needs special handling. This patch introduces .dma sections for such text, data and ex_table. The sections will be part of the decompressor kernel, so they will not be relocated and stay below 2 GB. Their location is passed over to the decompressed / relocated kernel via the .boot.preserved.data section. The duald and aste for control register setup also need to stay below 2 GB, so move the setup code from arch/s390/kernel/head64.S to arch/s390/boot/head.S. The duct and linkage_stack could reside above 2 GB, but their content has to be preserved for the decompresed kernel, so they are also moved into the .dma section. The start and end address of the .dma sections is added to vmcoreinfo, for crash support, to help debugging in case the kernel crashed there.

s390/early: get rid of memmove_early memmove_early was introduced with commit d543a106f96d6 ("s390: fix initrd corruptions with gcov/kcov instrumented kernels"). The reason for writing this extra memmove implementation was to be able to move memory from an unknown location (aka SCSI IPL parameter block) to a known location. This had to done early before it was known if the SCSI IPL parameter block pointer was valid or not, and therefore the memmove implementation was supposed to be able to handle program checks. The code has been changed and especially with commit d08091ac9654 ("s390/ipl: rely on diag308 store to get ipl info") and commit b4623d4e5b23 ("s390: provide memmove implementation") there is no need to have a memmove version that can handle program checks, and in addition it cannot be gcov/kcov instrumented anymore.

This however is incorrect. This breaks e.g. for user mode helper handling, where the kernel creates a kernel thread and then execve's a user space program. Control register contents related to transactional execution won't be updated on execve. If the previous task ran with transactional execution disabled then the new task will also run with transactional execution disabled, which is incorrect. Therefore call update_per_regs() unconditionally within switch_to(). - on startup the transactional execution facility is not enabled for the idle thread. This is not really a bug, but an inconsistency to other facilities. Therefore enable the facility if it is available. - on fork the new thread's per_flags field is not cleared. This means that a child process inherits the PER_FLAG_NO_TE flag. This flag can be set with a ptrace request to disable transactional execution for the current process. It should not be inherited by new child processes in order to be consistent with the handling of all other PER related debugging options. Therefore clear the per_flags field in copy_thread_tls().

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

s390/topology: alternative topology for topology-less machines If running on machines that do not provide topology information we currently generate a "fake" topology which defines the maximum distance between each cpu: each cpu will be put into an own drawer. Historically this used to be the best option for (virtual) machines in overcommited hypervisors. For some workloads however it is better to generate a different topology where all cpus are siblings within a package (all cpus are core siblings). This shows performance improvements of up to 10%, depending on the workload. In order to keep the current behaviour, but also allow to switch to the different core sibling topology use the existing "topology=" kernel parameter: Specifying "topology=on" on machines without topology information will generate the core siblings (fake) topology information, instead of the default topology information where all cpus have the maximum distance. On machines which provide topology information specifying "topology=on" does not have any effect.

s390/time: add support for the TOD clock epoch extension The TOD epoch extension adds 8 epoch bits to the TOD clock to provide a continuous clock after 2042/09/17. The store-clock-extended (STCKE) instruction will store the epoch index in the first byte of the 16 bytes stored by the instruction. The read_boot_clock64 and the read_presistent_clock64 functions need to take the additional bits into account to give the correct result after 2042/09/17. The clock-comparator register will stay 64 bit wide. The comparison of the clock-comparator with the TOD clock is limited to bytes 1 to 8 of the extended TOD format. To deal with the overflow problem due to an epoch change the clock-comparator sign control in CR0 can be used to switch the comparison of the 64-bit TOD clock with the clock-comparator to a signed comparison. The decision between the signed vs. unsigned clock-comparator comparisons is done at boot time. Only if the TOD clock is in the second half of a 142 year epoch the signed comparison is used. This solves the epoch overflow issue as long as the machine is booted at least once in an epoch. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

s390: add a system call for guarded storage This adds a new system call to enable the use of guarded storage for user space processes. The system call takes two arguments, a command and pointer to a guarded storage control block: s390_guarded_storage(int command, struct gs_cb *gs_cb); The second argument is relevant only for the GS_SET_BC_CB command. The commands in detail: 0 - GS_ENABLE Enable the guarded storage facility for the current task. The initial content of the guarded storage control block will be all zeros. After the enablement the user space code can use load-guarded-storage-controls instruction (LGSC) to load an arbitrary control block. While a task is enabled the kernel will save and restore the current content of the guarded storage registers on context switch. 1 - GS_DISABLE Disables the use of the guarded storage facility for the current task. The kernel will cease to save and restore the content of the guarded storage registers, the task specific content of these registers is lost. 2 - GS_SET_BC_CB Set a broadcast guarded storage control block. This is called per thread and stores a specific guarded storage control block in the task struct of the current task. This control block will be used for the broadcast event GS_BROADCAST. 3 - GS_CLEAR_BC_CB Clears the broadcast guarded storage control block. The guarded- storage control block is removed from the task struct that was established by GS_SET_BC_CB. 4 - GS_BROADCAST Sends a broadcast to all thread siblings of the current task. Every sibling that has established a broadcast guarded storage control block will load this control block and will be enabled for guarded storage. The broadcast guarded storage control block is used up, a second broadcast without a refresh of the stored control block with GS_SET_BC_CB will not have any effect.

s390: add no-execute support Bit 0x100 of a page table, segment table of region table entry can be used to disallow code execution for the virtual addresses associated with the entry. There is one tricky bit, the system call to return from a signal is part of the signal frame written to the user stack. With a non-executable stack this would stop working. To avoid breaking things the protection fault handler checks the opcode that caused the fault for 0x0a77 (sys_sigreturn) and 0x0aad (sys_rt_sigreturn) and injects a system call. This is preferable to the alternative solution with a stub function in the vdso because it works for vdso=off and statically linked binaries as well.

s390/topology: make "topology=off" parameter work The "topology=off" kernel parameter is supposed to prevent the kernel to use hardware topology information to generate scheduling domains etc. For an unknown reason I implemented this in a very odd way back then: instead of simply clearing the MACHINE_HAS_TOPOLOGY flag within the lowcore I added a second variable which indicated that topology information should not be used. This is more than suboptimal since it partially doesn't work. For the fake NUMA case topology information is still considered and scheduling domains will be created based on this. To fix this and to simplify the code get rid of the extra variable and implement the "topology=off" case like it is done for other features.

s390/ftrace,kprobes: allow to patch first instruction 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.

s390/mm,tlb: optimize TLB flushing for zEC12 The zEC12 machines introduced the local-clearing control for the IDTE and IPTE instruction. If the control is set only the TLB of the local CPU is cleared of entries, either all entries of a single address space for IDTE, or the entry for a single page-table entry for IPTE. Without the local-clearing control the TLB flush is broadcasted to all CPUs in the configuration, which is expensive. The reset of the bit mask of the CPUs that need flushing after a non-local IDTE is tricky. As TLB entries for an address space remain in the TLB even if the address space is detached a new bit field is required to keep track of attached CPUs vs. CPUs in the need of a flush. After a non-local flush with IDTE the bit-field of attached CPUs is copied to the bit-field of CPUs in need of a flush. The ordering of operations on cpu_attach_mask, attach_count and mm_cpumask(mm) is such that an underindication in mm_cpumask(mm) is prevented but an overindication in mm_cpumask(mm) is possible.

s390/mm: do not initialize storage keys With dirty and referenced bits implemented in software it is unnecessary to initialize the storage key for every page. With this patch not a single storage key operation is done for a system that does not use KVM. For KVM set_pte_at/pgste_set_key will do the initialization for the guest view of the storage key when the mapping for the page is established in the host.

s390/mem_detect: limit memory detection loop to "mem=" parameter The current memory detection loop will detect all present memory of a machine. This is true even if the user specified the "mem=" parameter on the kernel command line. This can be a problem since the memory detection may cause a fully populated host page table for the guest, even for those parts of the memory that the guest will never use afterwards. So fix this and only detect memory up to a user supplied "mem=" limit if specified.

s390/sysinfo,topology: fix cpu topology maximum nesting detection The maximum nesting of the cpu topology is evaluated when /proc/sysinfo is the first time read. This happens without a lock and a concurrent reader on a different cpu can see and use an invalid intermediate value. Besides the fact that this race is quite unlikely the worst thing that could happen is that /proc/sysinfo would contain bogus information about the machine's cpu topology. Nevertheless this should be fixed. So move the detection code to the early machine detection code and since now the value is early available use it in the topology code as well.

[S390] kernel: Add z/VM LGR detection 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] Check for NULL termination in command line setup The current code in setup_boot_command_line() uses a heuristic to detect an EBCDIC command line. It checks if any of the bytes in the command line has bit one (0x80) set. In that case it is assumed that we have an EBCDIC string and the complete command line is converted. On s390 there are cases where the boot loader provides a kernel command line that is NULL terminated, but has random data after the NULL termination. In that case, setup_boot_command_line() might misinterpret an ASCII string for an EBCDIC string. A subsequent string conversion can then damage the ASCII string. This patch solves the problem by checking for NULL termination. If no EBCDIC character has been found until the the NULL termination has been found, we now assume that we have an ASCII string.

[S390] Fix hypervisor detection for KVM Currently we use the cpuid (via STIDP instruction) to recognize LPAR, z/VM and KVM. The architecture states, that bit 0-7 of STIDP returns all zero, and if STIDP is executed in a virtual machine, the VM operating system will replace bits 0-7 with FF. KVM should not use FE to distinguish z/VM from KVM for interested guests. The proper way to detect the hypervisor is the STSI (Store System Information) instruction, which return information about the hypervisors via function code 3, selector1=2, selector2=2. This patch changes the detection routine of Linux to use STSI instead of STIDP. This detection is earlier than bootmem, we have to use a static buffer. Since STSI expects a 4kb block (4kb aligned) this patch also changes the init.data alignment for s390. As this section will be freed during boot, this should be no problem. Patch is tested with LPAR, z/VM, KVM on LPAR, and KVM under z/VM. Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

[S390] Move memory detection code to own file. Move memory detection code to own file and also simplify it. Also add an interface which can be called at any time to get the current memory layout. This interface is needed by our kernel internal system dumper.

[S390] Extra Kernel Parameters via VMPARM Now it is possible to specify additional kernel parameters on the IPL command line using the IPL PARM option. If the Linux system is already running, the new reipl sysfs attribute 'parm' can be used to change kernel parameters for the next reboot. Examples: IPL C PARM dasd=1234 root=/dev/dasda1 IPL 1234 PARM savesys=mylnxnss echo "init=/bin/bash" > /sys/firmware/reipl/ccw/parm Signed-off-by: Hendrik Brueckner <brueckner@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com>

[S390] initrd vs bss section clearing. In case the initrd is located within the bss section it will be overwritten when the section is cleared. To prevent this just move the initrd right behind the bss section if it starts within the section. The current code already moves the initrd if the bootmem allocator bitmap would overwrite it. With this patch we should be safe against initrd corruptions.

[S390] System z large page support. This adds hugetlbfs support on System z, using both hardware large page support if available and software large page emulation on older hardware. Shared (large) page tables are implemented in software emulation mode, by using page->index of the first tail page from a compound large page to store page table information.

[S390] Convert machine feature detection code to C. From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> From: Carsten Otte <cotte@de.ibm.com> This lets us use defines for the magic bits in machine flags instead of using plain numbers all over the place. In addition on newer machines features/facilities are indicated by the result of the stfl instruction. So we use these bits instead of trying to execute new instructions and check wether we get an exception or not. Also the mvpg instruction is always available when in zArch mode, whereas the idte instruction is only available in zArch mode. This results in some minor optimizations.

s390: KVM guest: detect when running on kvm This patch adds functionality to detect if the kernel runs under the KVM hypervisor. A macro MACHINE_IS_KVM is exported for device drivers. This allows drivers to skip device detection if the systems runs non-virtualized. We also define a preferred console to avoid having the ttyS0, which is a line mode only console.

[S390] Fix a lot of sparse warnings. Most noteable part of this commit is the new local header file entry.h which contains all the function declarations of functions that get only called from asm code or are arch internal. That way we can avoid extern declarations in C files. This is more or less the same that was done for sparc64.

[S390] Standby cpu activation/deactivation. Add a new interface so that cpus can be put into standby state and configured state. Only offline cpus can be put into standby state or configured state. For that the new percpu sysfs attribute "configure" must be used. To put a cpu in standby state a "0" must be written to the attribute. In order to switch it into configured state a "1" must be written to the attribute. Only cpus in configured state can be brought online. In addition this patch introduces a static mapping of physical to logical cpus. As a result only the sysfs directories of present cpus will be created. To scan for new cpus the new sysfs attribute "rescan" must be used. Writing to /sys/devices/system/cpu/rescan will trigger a rescan of cpus and will create directories for new cpus. On IPL only configured cpus will be used. And on reboot/shutdown all cpus will remain in their current state (configured/standby).

[S390] Convert memory detection into C code. Hopefully this will make it more maintainable and less error prone. Code makes use of search_exception_tables(). Since it calls this function before the kernel exeception table is sorted, there is an early call to sort_main_extable(). This way it's easy to use the already present infrastructure of fixup sections. Also this would allows to easily convert the rest of head[31|64].S into C code.
