KVM: s390: Add FAULT_FLAG_RETRY_NOWAIT for guest fault

2014-01-30T11:50:39+00:00

In the case of a fault, we will retry to exit sie64 but with gmap fault
indication for this thread set. This makes it possible to handle async
page faults.

Based on a patch from Martin Schwidefsky.

s390/mm,tlb: correct tlb flush on page table upgrade

2013-11-04T12:51:47+00:00

The IDTE instruction used to flush TLB entries for a specific address
space uses the address-space-control element (ASCE) to identify
affected TLB entries. The upgrade of a page table adds a new top
level page table which changes the ASCE. The TLB entries associated
with the old ASCE need to be flushed and the ASCE for the address space
needs to be replaced synchronously on all CPUs which currently use it.
The concept of a lazy ASCE update with an exception handler is broken.

s390: fix handling of runtime instrumentation psw bit

2013-10-24T15:17:11+00:00

Fix the following bugs:
- When returning from a signal the signal handler copies the saved psw mask
  from user space and uses parts of it. Especially it restores the RI bit
  unconditionally. If however the machine doesn't support RI, or RI is
  disabled for the task, the last lpswe instruction which returns to user
  space will generate a specification exception.
  To fix this check if the RI bit is allowed to be set and kill the task
  if not.
- In the compat mode signal handler code the RI bit of the psw mask gets
  propagated to the mask of the return psw: if user space enables RI in the
  signal handler, RI will also be enabled after the signal handler is
  finished.
  This is a different behaviour than with 64 bit tasks. So change this to
  match the 64 bit semantics, which restores the original RI bit value.
- Fix similar oddities within the ptrace code as well.

s390/uaccess: always run the kernel in home space

2013-10-24T15:16:57+00:00

Simplify the uaccess code by removing the user_mode=home option.
The kernel will now always run in the home space mode.

s390/dis: move disassembler function prototypes to proper header file

2013-10-24T15:16:48+00:00

Now that the in-kernel disassembler has an own header file move the
disassembler related function prototypes to that header file.

mutex: replace CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_MUTEX_CPU_RELAX with simple ifdef

2013-09-28T10:46:21+00:00

Linus suggested to replace

 #ifndef CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_MUTEX_CPU_RELAX
 #define arch_mutex_cpu_relax() cpu_relax()
 #endif

with just a simple

  #ifndef arch_mutex_cpu_relax
  # define arch_mutex_cpu_relax() cpu_relax()
  #endif

to get rid of CONFIG_HAVE_CPU_RELAX_SIMPLE. So architectures can
simply define arch_mutex_cpu_relax if they want an architecture
specific function instead of having to add a select statement in
their Kconfig in addition.

Pull KVM updates from Gleb Natapov:
 "The highlights of the release are nested EPT and pv-ticketlocks
  support (hypervisor part, guest part, which is most of the code, goes
  through tip tree).  Apart of that there are many fixes for all arches"

KVM: s390: fix task size check

2013-07-29T07:03:19+00:00

The gmap_map_segment function uses PGDIR_SIZE in the check for the
maximum address in the tasks address space. This incorrectly limits
the amount of memory usable for a kvm guest to 4TB. The correct limit
is (1UL << 53). As the TASK_SIZE has different values (4TB vs 8PB)
dependent on the existance of the fourth page table level, create
a new define 'TASK_MAX_SIZE' for (1UL << 53).

s390/ptrace: PTRACE_TE_ABORT_RAND

2013-07-16T10:21:56+00:00

The patch implements a s390 specific ptrace request
PTRACE_TE_ABORT_RAND to modify the randomness of spontaneous
aborts of memory transactions of the transaction execution
facility. The data argument of the ptrace request is used to
specify the levels of randomness, 0 for normal operation, 1 to
abort every transaction at a random instruction, and 2 to abort
a random transaction at a random instruction. The default is 0
for normal operation.
