s390/vtimer: rework virtual timer interface

2012-07-20T09:15:08+00:00

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.

s390/comments: unify copyright messages and remove file names

2012-07-20T09:15:04+00:00

Remove the file name from the comment at top of many files. In most
cases the file name was wrong anyway, so it's rather pointless.

Also unify the IBM copyright statement. We did have a lot of sightly
different statements and wanted to change them one after another
whenever a file gets touched. However that never happened. Instead
people start to take the old/"wrong" statements to use as a template
for new files.
So unify all of them in one go.

[S390] irq: external interrupt code passing

2012-03-11T15:59:29+00:00

The external interrupt handlers have a parameter called ext_int_code.
Besides the name this paramter does not only contain the ext_int_code
but in addition also the "cpu address" (POP) which caused the external
interrupt.
To make the code a bit more obvious pass a struct instead so the called
function can easily distinguish between external interrupt code and
cpu address. The cpu address field however is named "subcode" since
some external interrupt sources do not pass a cpu address but a
different parameter (or none at all).

[S390] correct ktime to tod clock comparator conversion

2012-02-17T09:29:33+00:00

The conversion of the ktime to a value suitable for the clock comparator
does not take changes to wall_to_monotonic into account. In fact the
conversion just needs the boot clock (sched_clock_base_cc) and the
total_sleep_time.

This is applicable to 3.2+ kernels.

s390: time - convert sysdev_class to a regular subsystem

2011-12-21T23:09:50+00:00

After all sysdev classes are ported to regular driver core entities, the
sysdev implementation will be entirely removed from the kernel.

time, s390: Get rid of compile warning

2011-10-12T08:24:10+00:00

"s390: Use direct ktime path for s390 clockevent device" in linux-next
introduces this compile warning:

arch/s390/kernel/time.c: In function 's390_next_ktime':
arch/s390/kernel/time.c:118:2: warning:
  comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast [enabled by default]

Just use a u64 instead of an s64 variable. This is not a problem since it
will always contain a positive value.

s390: Use direct ktime path for s390 clockevent device

2011-09-08T09:10:56+00:00

The clock comparator on s390 uses the same format as the TOD clock.
If the value in the clock comparator is smaller than the current TOD
value an interrupt is pending. Use the CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_KTIME feature
to get the unmodified ktime of the next clockevent expiration and
use it to program the clock comparator without querying the TOD clock.
