s390: adapt entry.S to the move of thread_struct

2015-07-20T11:22:18+00:00

git commit 0c8c0f03e3a292e031596484275c14cf39c0ab7a
"x86/fpu, sched: Dynamically allocate 'struct fpu'"
moved the thread_struct to the end of the task_struct.

This causes some of the offsets used in entry.S to overflow their
instruction operand field. To fix this  use aghi to create a
dedicated pointer for the thread_struct.

KVM: s390: make exit_sie_sync more robust

2015-05-08T13:51:14+00:00

exit_sie_sync is used to kick CPUs out of SIE and prevent reentering at
any point in time. This is used to reload the prefix pages and to
set the IBS stuff in a way that guarantees that after this function
returns we are no longer in SIE. All current users trigger KVM requests.

The request must be set before we block the CPUs to avoid races. Let's
make this implicit by adding the request into a new function
kvm_s390_sync_requests that replaces exit_sie_sync and split out
s390_vcpu_block and s390_vcpu_unblock, that can be used to keep
CPUs out of SIE independent of requests.

s390: remove 31 bit syscalls

2015-03-25T10:49:35+00:00

Remove the 31 bit syscalls from the syscall table. This is a separate patch
just in case I screwed something up so it can be easily reverted.
However the conversion was done with a script, so everything should be ok.

s390: remove "64" suffix from a couple of files

2015-03-25T10:49:34+00:00

Rename a couple of files to get rid of the "64" suffix.
"git blame" will still work.

s390: remove 31 bit support

2015-03-25T10:49:33+00:00

Remove the 31 bit support in order to reduce maintenance cost and
effectively remove dead code. Since a couple of years there is no
distribution left that comes with a 31 bit kernel.

The 31 bit kernel also has been broken since more than a year before
anybody noticed. In addition I added a removal warning to the kernel
shown at ipl for 5 minutes: a960062e5826 ("s390: add 31 bit warning
message") which let everybody know about the plan to remove 31 bit
code. We didn't get any response.

Given that the last 31 bit only machine was introduced in 1999 let's
remove the code.
Anybody with 31 bit user space code can still use the compat mode.

s390: use local symbol names in entry[64].S

To improve the output of the perf tool hide most of the symbols
from entry[64].S by using the '.L' prefix.

Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm into next

2014-06-04T15:47:12+00:00

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "At over 200 commits, covering almost all supported architectures, this
  was a pretty active cycle for KVM.  Changes include:

   - a lot of s390 changes: optimizations, support for migration, GDB
     support and more

   - ARM changes are pretty small: support for the PSCI 0.2 hypercall
     interface on both the guest and the host (the latter acked by
     Catalin)

   - initial POWER8 and little-endian host support

   - support for running u-boot on embedded POWER targets

   - pretty large changes to MIPS too, completing the userspace
     interface and improving the handling of virtualized timer hardware

   - for x86, a larger set of changes is scheduled for 3.17.  Still, we
     have a few emulator bugfixes and support for running nested
     fully-virtualized Xen guests (para-virtualized Xen guests have
     always worked).  And some optimizations too.

  The only missing architecture here is ia64.  It's not a coincidence
  that support for KVM on ia64 is scheduled for removal in 3.17"

s390: split TIF bits into CIF, PIF and TIF bits

2014-05-20T06:58:47+00:00

The oi and ni instructions used in entry[64].S to set and clear bits
in the thread-flags are not guaranteed to be atomic in regard to other
CPUs. Split the TIF bits into CPU, pt_regs and thread-info specific
bits. Updates on the TIF bits are done with atomic instructions,
updates on CPU and pt_regs bits are done with non-atomic instructions.

s390/uaccess: simplify control register updates

2014-05-20T06:58:46+00:00

Always switch to the kernel ASCE in switch_mm. Load the secondary
space ASCE in finish_arch_post_lock_switch after checking that
any pending page table operations have completed. The primary
ASCE is loaded in entry[64].S. With this the update_primary_asce
call can be removed from the switch_to macro and from the start
of switch_mm function. Remove the load_primary argument from
update_user_asce/clear_user_asce, rename update_user_asce to
set_user_asce and rename update_primary_asce to load_kernel_asce.

per_perc_atmid is currently a two-byte field that combines two

Identification (ATMID)

Let's make them accessible indepently and also rename per_cause to
