* [S390] Fix IRQ tracing in case of PERHeiko Carstens2010-07-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | In case user space is single stepped (PER) the program check handler claims too early that IRQs are enabled on the return path. Subsequent checks will notice that the IRQ mask in the PSW and what lockdep thinks the IRQ mask should be do not correlate and therefore will print a warning to the console and disable lockdep. Fix this by doing all the work within the correct context. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
* [S390] add breaking event address for user spaceMartin Schwidefsky2010-05-17
| | | | | | | | | | | Copy the last breaking event address from the lowcore to a new field in the thread_struct on each system entry. Add a new ptrace request PTRACE_GET_LAST_BREAK and a new utrace regset REGSET_LAST_BREAK to query the last breaking event. This is useful for debugging wild branches in user space code.

* [S390] idle time accounting vs. machine checksMartin Schwidefsky2010-05-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A machine check can interrupt the i/o and external interrupt handler anytime. If the machine check occurs while the interrupt handler is waking up from idle vtime_start_cpu can get executed a second time and the int_clock / async_enter_timer values in the lowcore get clobbered. This can confuse the cpu time accounting. To fix this problem two changes are needed. First the machine check handler has to use its own copies of int_clock and async_enter_timer, named mcck_clock and mcck_enter_timer. Second the nested execution of vtime_start_cpu has to be prevented. This is done in s390_idle_check by checking the wait bit in the program status word.

* [S390] improve irq tracing code in entry[64].SMartin Schwidefsky2010-05-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | The system call path in entry[64].S is run with interrupts enabled. Remove the irq tracing check from the system call exit code. If a program check interrupted a context enabled for interrupts do a call to trace_irq_off_caller in the program check handler before branching to the system call exit code. Restructure the system call and io interrupt return code to avoid avoid the lpsw[e] to disable machine checks. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

* [S390] fix io_return critical section cleanupMartin Schwidefsky2010-04-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | If a machine check interrupts the io interrupt handler on one of the instructions between io_return and io_leave the critical section cleanup code will move the return psw to io_work_loop. By doing that the switch from the asynchronous interrupt stack to the process stack is skipped. If e.g. TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set things break because the scheduler is called with the asynchronous interrupts stack. Moving the psw back to io_return instead fixes the problem.

* [S390] fix single stepped svcs with TRACE_IRQFLAGS=yMartin Schwidefsky2010-01-27
| | | | | | | | | | | If irq flags tracing is enabled the TRACE_IRQS_ON macros expands to a function call which clobbers registers %r0-%r5. The macro is used in the code path for single stepped system calls. The argument registers %r2-%r6 need to be restored from the stack before the system call function is called.

* [S390] s390: fix single stepping on svc0Christian Borntraeger2009-11-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On s390 there are two ways of specifying the system call number for the svc instruction. The standard way is to use the immediate field in the instruction (or to use EXecute for values unknown during assemble time). This can encode 256 system calls. The kernel ABI also allows to put the system call number in r1 and then execute svc 0 to enable system call numbers > 255. It turns out that single stepping svc 0 is broken, since the PER program check handler uses r1. We have to use a different register.

* [S390] audit: get s390 ret_from_fork in sync with other architecturesAl Viro2008-12-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On s390 we have ret_from_fork jump not to the "do all work we normally do on return from syscall" as on x86, ppc, etc., but to the "do all such work except audit". Historical reasons - the codepath triggered when we have AUDIT process flag set is separated from the normall one and they converge at sysc_return, which is the common part of post-syscall work. And does not include calling audit_syscall_exit() - that's done in the end of sysc_tracesys path, just before that path jumps to sysc_return. IOW, the child returning from fork()/clone()/vfork() doesn't call audit_syscall_exit() at all, so no matter what we do with its audit context, we are not going to see the audit entry. The fix is simple: have ret_from_fork go to the point just past the call of sys_.... in the 'we have AUDIT flag set' path. There we have (64bit variant; for 31bit the situation is the same): sysc_tracenogo: tm __TI_flags+7(%r9),(_TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE|_TIF_SYSCALL_AUDIT) jz sysc_return la %r2,SP_PTREGS(%r15) # load pt_regs larl %r14,sysc_return # return point is sysc_return jg do_syscall_trace_exit which is precisely what we need - check the flag, bugger off to sysc_return if not set, otherwise call do_syscall_trace_exit() and bugger off to sysc_return. r9 has just been properly set by ret_from_fork itself, so we are fine. Tested on s390x, seems to work fine. WARNING: it's been about 16 years since my last contact with 3X0 assembler[1], so additional review would be very welcome.

* [S390] fix system call parameter functions.Martin Schwidefsky2008-11-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | syscall_get_nr() currently returns a valid result only if the call chain of the traced process includes do_syscall_trace_enter(). But collect_syscall() can be called for any sleeping task, the result of syscall_get_nr() in general is completely bogus. To make syscall_get_nr() work for any sleeping task the traps field in pt_regs is replace with svcnr - the system call number the process is executing. If svcnr == 0 the process is not on a system call path. The syscall_get_arguments and syscall_set_arguments use regs->gprs[2] for the first system call parameter. This is incorrect since gprs[2] may have been overwritten with the system call number if the call chain includes do_syscall_trace_enter. Use regs->orig_gprs2 instead.

* [S390] ftrace: fix kernel stack backchain walkingHeiko Carstens2008-11-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With CONFIG_IRQSOFF_TRACER the trace_hardirqs_off() function includes a call to __builtin_return_address(1). But we calltrace_hardirqs_off() from early entry code. There we have just a single stack frame. So this results in a kernel stack backchain walk that would walk beyond the kernel stack. Following the NULL terminated backchain this results in a lowcore read access. To fix this we simply call trace_hardirqs_off_caller() and pass the current instruction pointer.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a machine check is pending and the external or I/O interrupt handler returns to userspace io_mcck_pending is going to call s390_handle_mcck. Before this happens a call to TRACE_IRQS_ON was already made since we know that we are going back to userspace and hence interrupts will be enabled. So there was an indication that interrupts are enabled while in reality they are still disabled. s390_handle_mcck will do a local_irq_save/restore pair and confuse lockdep which later complains about inconsistent irq tracing. To solve this just call trace_hardirqs_off before calling s390_handle_mcck and trace_hardirqs_on afterwards.

* [S390] virtual cpu accounting vs. machine checks.Martin Schwidefsky2006-06-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a machine checks interrupts the external or the i/o interrupt handler before they have completed the cpu time calculations, the accounting goes wrong. After the cpu returned from the machine check handler to the interrupted interrupt handler, a negative cpu time delta can occur. If the accumulated cpu time in lowcore is small enough this value can get negative as well. The next jiffy interrupt will pick up that negative value, shift it by 12 and add the now huge positive value to the cpu time of the process. To solve this the machine check handler is modified not to change any of the timestamps in the lowcore if the machine check interrupted kernel context.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new machine check handler still has a few bugs. 1) The system entry time has to be stored in the machine check handler, 2) the machine check return psw may not be stored at the usual place because it might overwrite the return psw of the interrupted context, 3) the return address for the call to s390_handle_mcck in the i/o interrupt handler is not correct, 4) the system call cleanup has to take the different save area of the machine check handler into account, 5) the machine check handler may not call UPDATE_VTIME before CREATE_STACK_FRAME, and 6) the io leave path needs a critical section cleanup to make sure that the TIF_MCCK_PENDING bit is really checked before switching back to user space.

* [PATCH] s390: improved machine check handlingHeiko Carstens2005-06-25
| | | | | | | | | | Improved machine check handling. Kernel is now able to receive machine checks while in kernel mode (system call, interrupt and program check handling). Also register validation is now performed. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
