* [S390] nohz/s390: fix arch_needs_cpu() return value on offline cpusHeiko Carstens2010-12-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes the same problem as described in the patch "nohz: fix printk_needs_cpu() return value on offline cpus" for the arch_needs_cpu() primitive: arch_needs_cpu() may return 1 if called on offline cpus. When a cpu gets offlined it schedules the idle process which, before killing its own cpu, will call tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(). That function in turn will call arch_needs_cpu() in order to check if the local tick can be disabled. On offline cpus this function should naturally return 0 since regardless if the tick gets disabled or not the cpu will be dead short after. That is besides the fact that __cpu_disable() should already have made sure that no interrupts on the offlined cpu will be delivered anyway. In this case it prevents tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() to call select_nohz_load_balancer(). No idea if that really is a problem. However what made me debug this is that on 2.6.32 the function get_nohz_load_balancer() is used within __mod_timer() to select a cpu on which a timer gets enqueued. If arch_needs_cpu() returns 1 then the nohz_load_balancer cpu doesn't get updated when a cpu gets offlined. It may contain the cpu number of an offline cpu. In turn timers get enqueued on an offline cpu and not very surprisingly they never expire and cause system hangs. This has been observed 2.6.32 kernels. On current kernels __mod_timer() uses get_nohz_timer_target() which doesn't have that problem. However there might be other problems because of the too early exit tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() in case a cpu goes offline. This specific bug was indrocuded with 3c5d92a0 "nohz: Introduce arch_needs_cpu". In this case a cpu hotplug notifier is used to fix the issue in order to keep the normal/fast path small. All we need to do is to clear the condition that makes arch_needs_cpu() return 1 since it is just a performance improvement which is supposed to keep the local tick running for a short period if a cpu goes idle. Nothing special needs to be done except for clearing the condition.

* [S390] nmi: fix clock comparator revalidationHeiko Carstens2010-11-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On each machine check all registers are revalidated. The save area for the clock comparator however only contains the upper most seven bytes of the former contents, if valid. Therefore the machine check handler uses a store clock instruction to get the current time and writes that to the clock comparator register which in turn will generate an immediate timer interrupt. However within the lowcore the expected time of the next timer interrupt is stored. If the interrupt happens before that time the handler won't be called. In turn the clock comparator won't be reprogrammed and therefore the interrupt condition stays pending which causes an interrupt loop until the expected time is reached. On NOHZ machines this can result in unresponsive machines since the time of the next expected interrupted can be a couple of days in the future. To fix this just revalidate the clock comparator register with the expected value. In addition the special handling for udelay must be changed as well.

* | | [S390] switch_to: dont restore/save access & fpu regs for kernel threadsHeiko Carstens2010-10-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* | | [S390] Add config option for z196 code generation.Heiko Carstens2010-10-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a kernel config option for the IBM zEnterprise 196. This will produce faster code on newer compilers using the -march=z196 option. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Display machine capacity adjustment indicator and capacity change reason if available in /proc/sysinfo. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
* | | [S390] add z196 instructions to kernel disassemblerMartin Schwidefsky2010-10-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the new instructions introduced with z196 to the kernel disassembler. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
* | | [S390] add support for nonquiescing sskeMartin Schwidefsky2010-10-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Improve performance of the sske operation by using the nonquiescing variant if the affected page has no mappings established. On machines with no support for the new sske variant the mask bit will be ignored. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
* | | [S390] store indication fault optimizationMartin Schwidefsky2010-10-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use the store indication bit in the translation exception code on page faults to avoid the protection faults that immediatly follow the page fault if the access has been a write. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
