Add the "bzImage" compile target and the necessary code to generate compressed kernel images. The old style uncompressed "image" target is preserved, a simple make will build them both. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

S390 ELF core dump currently only contains the PSW, the general purpose registers, the floating point registers and the access registers stored in PRSTATUS/PRFPREG note sections. For analyzing s390 kernel problems additional registers are important. In order to be able to include these registers to a kernel ELF core dump, this patch adds the following five new note sections to elf.h: * NT_S390_TIMER: S390 timer register * NT_S390_TODCMP: S390 TOD comparator register * NT_S390_TODPREG: S390 TOD programmable register * NT_S390_CTRS: S390 control registers * NT_S390_PREFIX: S390 prefix register The new note sections have been already defined and accepted in the upstream binutils package.

Flushing the dasd ccw request queue may stop the processing of the block device request queue. Destroy partitions may wait for outstanding requests and thus hang. Swapping dasd_destroy_partitions and dasd_flush_request_queue so that the request queue is empty before dasd_destroy_partitions is called.

The function dasd_device_from_cdev returns a reference to the dasd device and increases the refcount by one. If an exception occurs, the refcount was not decreased in all cases e.g. in dasd_discipline_show. Prevent the offline processing from hang by correcting two functions to decrease the refcount even if an error occured.

Setting a DASD online and offline in quick succession may cause a kernel panic or let the chhccwdev command wait forever. The Online process is split into two parts. After the first part is finished the offline process may be called. This may result in a situation where the second online processing part tries to set the DASD offline as well. Use a mutex to protect online and offline against each other. Also correct some checking.

Use asm offsets to make sure the offset defines to struct _lowcore and its layout don't get out of sync. Also add a BUILD_BUG_ON() which checks that the size of the structure is sane. And while being at it change those sites which use odd casts to access the current lowcore. These should use S390_lowcore instead.

This patch introduces a new function that checks the running status of a cpu in a hypervisor. This status is not virtualized, so the check is only correct if running in an LPAR. On acquiring a spinlock, if the cpu holding the lock is scheduled by the hypervisor, we do a busy wait on the lock. If it is not scheduled, we yield over to that cpu.

Remove a memset hack that relied on the internal layout of the qdio_irq struct and move the per device statistics data into an own cache line to avoid cache line bashing between the inbound and the outbound queue tasklets. Also reduce the number of allocated queues from 32 to 4 which is the current maximum. That saves a cache line in struct qdio_irq.

Add counters for the number of processed SBALs. The numbers summarize how many SBALs were processed at each queue scan and indicate the utilization of the queue. Furthermore the number of unsuccessfull queue scans, SBAL errors and the total number of processed SBALs are accounted.

Drop support to compile the kernel with gcc versions older than 3.3.3. This allows us to use the "Q" inline assembly contraint on some more inline assemblies without duplicating a lot of complex code (e.g. __xchg and __cmpxchg). The distinction for older gcc versions can be removed which saves a few lines and simplifies the code.

Some parts of cio do not shift PAGE_DEFAULT_KEY correctly and end up with an incorrect key in their data structures. Since the default key is zero this doesn't really matter. However if somebody would use key-controlled protection for debugging purposes it would be quite helpful if all of this would work as expected. Also remove a stale declaration.

To fetch a pending channel report word (crw) we use a kernel thread which triggers stcrw and sleeps on a semaphore. The s390 machine check handler uses crw_handle_channel_report to handle one crw if needed. This patch replaces the semaphore with a waitqueue (to block the kernel thread) and an atomic_t (to count the number of pending requests). By this we achieve the ability to force this thread to check for a pending crw (independent on when it is triggered by the machine check handler) and wait for this action to finish.

We used to maintain 2 singlethreaded workqueues for synchronization and to trigger work from interrupt context. Since our latest cio changes we only use one of these workqueues. So get rid of the unused workqueue, rename the remaining one to "cio_work_q" and move its ownership to the channel subsystem driver.

The five-second delay can be rather annoying, and makes the system appear much less responsive when you connect a USB drive. It's also not entirely clear that it is needed - the settling delay has at least historically been an issue on some Apple iPods, for example, and some devices have been reported to need even more than the old 5s delay. But before we penalize them all, let's see how bad it really is. Some of the reasons for long delays seem to be actual historical kernel bugs that should probably never have been papered over with a delay in the first place (there's a Ubuntu bug report for 2.6.20 about a NULL pointer dereference unless 'delay_use' is 8 or more, for example). It also looks like some distros have already shipped with delay_use=0, so the five second default may well be totally historical. In other words: "Let's see if anybody screams".
