* [S390] topology: clean up facility detectionHeiko Carstens2010-10-25
| | | | | | | | Move cpu topology facility detection to early setup code where it should be. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

* [S390] remove ieee_instruction_pointer from thread_structMartin Schwidefsky2010-10-25
| | | | | | | | | The ieee_instruction_pointer can not be read from user space anymore since git commit 613e1def6b52c399a8b72a5e11bc2e57d2546fb8, the ptrace interface always returns zero. Remove it from the thread_struct. It is still present in the user_regs_struct for compatability reasons. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
* [S390] cleanup system call parameter setupMartin Schwidefsky2010-10-25

* [S390] pgtable: move pte_mkhuge() from hugetlb.h to pgtable.hHeiko Carstens2010-10-25
| | | | | | | | | | All architectures besides s390 have pte_mkhuge() defined in pgtable.h. So move the function to pgtable.h on s390 as well. Fixes a compile error introduced with "hugetlb: hugepage migration core" in linux-next which only happens on s390.

| | | | | | | | | | | If the previous task was a kernel thread there is no need to save the contents of the fpu and access registers since they aren't used in kernel mode. For the same reason it is not necessary to restore these registers if the next task is a kernel thread.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As suggested by Christian, we should expose headers to user space with information that might be valuable there.

This is needed by qeth to use NAPI. To use the new interface the upper-layer driver must specify the queue_start_poll(). This callback is used to signal the upper-layer driver that is has initiative and must process the inbound queue by calling qdio_get_next_buffers(). If the upper-layer driver wants to stop polling it calls qdio_start_irq(). Since adapter interrupts are not completely stoppable qdio implements a software bit QDIO_QUEUE_IRQS_DISABLED to safely disable interrupts for an input queue. The old interface is preserved and will be used as is by zfcp.

In linux/irqflags.h under one configuration, it maps: local_irq_enable() -> raw_local_irq_enable() local_irq_disable() -> raw_local_irq_disable() local_irq_save() -> raw_local_irq_save() ... and under the other configuration, it maps: raw_local_irq_enable() -> local_irq_enable() raw_local_irq_disable() -> local_irq_disable() raw_local_irq_save() -> local_irq_save() ... This is quite confusing. There should be one set of names expected of the arch, and this should be wrapped to give another set of names that are expected by users of this facility. Change this to have the arch provide: flags = arch_local_save_flags() flags = arch_local_irq_save() arch_local_irq_restore(flags) arch_local_irq_disable() arch_local_irq_enable() arch_irqs_disabled_flags(flags) arch_irqs_disabled() arch_safe_halt() Then linux/irqflags.h wraps these to provide: raw_local_save_flags(flags) raw_local_irq_save(flags) raw_local_irq_restore(flags) raw_local_irq_disable() raw_local_irq_enable() raw_irqs_disabled_flags(flags) raw_irqs_disabled() raw_safe_halt() with type checking on the flags 'arguments', and then wraps those to provide: local_save_flags(flags) local_irq_save(flags) local_irq_restore(flags) local_irq_disable() local_irq_enable() irqs_disabled_flags(flags) irqs_disabled() safe_halt() with tracing included if enabled. The arch functions can now all be inline functions rather than some of them having to be macros.

It is most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers. Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also benefit. The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately. Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in processing the work.

* | | compat: Make compat_alloc_user_space() incorporate the access_ok()H. Peter Anvin2010-09-14

A missing call could introduce problems on some architectures. This patch incorporates the access_ok() check into compat_alloc_user_space() and also adds a sanity check on the length. The existing compat_alloc_user_space() implementations are renamed arch_compat_alloc_user_space() and are used as part of the implementation of the new global function. This patch assumes NULL will cause __get_user()/__put_user() to either fail or access userspace on all architectures. This should be followed by checking the return value of compat_access_user_space() for NULL in the callers, at which time the access_ok() in the callers can also be removed.

* / [S390] fix tlb flushing vs. concurrent /proc accessesMartin Schwidefsky2010-08-24
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The tlb flushing code uses the mm_users field of the mm_struct to decide if each page table entry needs to be flushed individually with IPTE or if a global flush for the mm_struct is sufficient after all page table updates have been done. The comment for mm_users says "How many users with user space?" but the /proc code increases mm_users after it found the process structure by pid without creating a new user process. Which makes mm_users useless for the decision between the two tlb flusing methods. The current code can be confused to not flush tlb entries by a concurrent access to /proc files if e.g. a fork is in progres. The solution for this problem is to make the tlb flushing logic independent from the mm_users field. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

Paraphrased from the 1989 BSD patch by David Borman @ cray.com: These are the changes needed for the kernel to support LINEMODE in the server. There is a new bit in the termios local flag word, EXTPROC. When this bit is set, several aspects of the terminal driver are disabled. Input line editing, character echo, and mapping of signals are all disabled. This allows the telnetd to turn off these functions when in linemode, but still keep track of what state the user wants the terminal to be in. New ioctl: TIOCSIG Generate a signal to processes in the current process group of the pty. There is a new mode for packet driver, the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit. When packet mode is turned on in the pty, and the EXTPROC bit is set, then whenever the state of the pty is changed, the next read on the master side of the pty will have the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit set. This allows the process on the server side of the pty to know when the state of the terminal has changed; it can then issue the appropriate ioctl to retrieve the new state. Since the original BSD patches accompanied the source code for telnet I've left that reference here, but obviously the feature is useful for any remote terminal protocol, including ssh. The corresponding feature has existed in the BSD tty driver since 1989.
