Running under z/VM with QIOASSIST enabled, qdio queues could stall if EQBS did not extract all SBAL states. Add an instant retry for EQBS and, if the retry fails, set up a timer to ensure outstanding SBALs are processed later. While at it, optimize qdio_do_eqbs and qdio_do_sqbs to eliminate 3 jumps on the hot path. Signed-off-by:

gmap_fault needs to walk the guest page table. However, parts of that may change if some other thread does munmap. In that case gmap_unmap_notifier will also unmap the corresponding parts from the guest page table. We need to take mmap_sem in order to serialize these operations. do_exception now calls __gmap_fault with mmap_sem held which does not get exported to modules. The exported function, which is called from KVM, now takes mmap_sem. Reported-by:

Fix possible deadlock reported by lockdep: qemu-system-s39/2963 is trying to acquire lock: (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: gmap_alloc_table+0x9c/0x120 but task is already holding lock: (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: gmap_map_segment+0xa6/0x27c Actually gmap_alloc_table is the only called in gmap_map_segment with mmap_sem held, thus it's safe to simply remove the inner lock.

The buffer for read configuration data has to be initialized with an EBCDIC string to show support for extended UIDs to z/VM. If this read configuration data CQR needs to be retried, the buffer may have changed in between. So re-initialize the buffer to get a correct extended UID under z/VM. Signed-off-by:

The user space program can change its addressing mode between the 24-bit, 31-bit and the 64-bit mode if the kernel is 64 bit. Currently the kernel always forces the standard amode on signal delivery and signal return and on ptrace: 64-bit for a 64-bit process, 31-bit for a compat process and 31-bit kernels. Change the signal and ptrace code to allow the full range of addressing modes. Signal handlers are run in the standard addressing mode for the process. One caveat is that even an 31-bit compat process can switch to the 64-bit mode. The next signal will switch back into the 31-bit mode and there is no room in the 31-bit compat signal frame to store the information that the program came from the 64-bit mode. Signed-off-by: -

Split out addressing mode bits from PSW_BASE_BITS, rename PSW_BASE_BITS to PSW_MASK_BASE, get rid of psw_user32_bits, remove unused function enabled_wait(), introduce PSW_MASK_USER, and drop PSW_MASK_MERGE macros. Change psw_kernel_bits / psw_user_bits to contain only the bits that are always set in the respective mode. Signed-off-by: -

Add an explicit TIF_SYSCALL bit that indicates if a task is inside a system call. The svc_code in the pt_regs structure is now only valid if TIF_SYSCALL is set. With this definition TIF_RESTART_SVC can be replaced with TIF_SYSCALL. Overall do_signal is a bit more readable and it saves a few lines of code. Signed-off-by: -

For a ERESTARTNOHAND/ERESTARTSYS/ERESTARTNOINTR restarting system call do_signal will prepare the restart of the system call with a rewind of the PSW before calling get_signal_to_deliver (where the debugger might take control). For A ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK restarting system call do_signal will set -EINTR as return code. There are two issues with this approach: 1) strace never sees ERESTARTNOHAND, ERESTARTSYS, ERESTARTNOINTR or ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK as the rewinding already took place or the return code has been changed to -EINTR 2) if get_signal_to_deliver does not return with a signal to deliver the restart via the repeat of the svc instruction is left in place. This opens a race if another signal is made pending before the system call instruction can be reexecuted. The original system call will be restarted even if the second signal would have ended the system call with -EINTR. These two issues can be solved by dropping the early rewind of the system call before get_signal_to_deliver has been called and by using the TIF_RESTART_SVC magic to do the restart if no signal has to be delivered. The only situation where the system call restart via the repeat of the svc instruction is appropriate is when a SA_RESTART signal is delivered to user space. Unfortunately this breaks inferior calls by the debugger again. The system call number and the length of the system call instruction is lost over the inferior call and user space will see ERESTARTNOHAND/ ERESTARTSYS/ERESTARTNOINTR/ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK. To correct this a new ptrace interface is added to save/restore the system call number and system call instruction length. Signed-off-by: -

This patch implements the crash_map_pages() function for s390. KEXEC_CRASH_MEM_ALIGN is set to HPAGE_SIZE, in order to support kernel mappings that use large pages. We also use HPAGE_SIZE alignment for CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE=n in order to have the same 1 MiB alignment on all s390 systems. Signed-off-by:

This patch introduces a mechanism that allows architecture backends to remove page tables for the crashkernel memory. This can protect the loaded kdump kernel from being overwritten by broken kernel code. Two new functions crash_map_reserved_pages() and crash_unmap_reserved_pages() are added that can be implemented by architecture code. The crash_map_reserved_pages() function is called before and crash_unmap_reserved_pages() after the crashkernel segments are loaded. The functions are also called in crash_shrink_memory() to create/remove page tables when the crashkernel memory size is reduced. To support architectures that have large pages this patch also introduces a new define KEXEC_CRASH_MEM_ALIGN. The crashkernel start and size must always be aligned with KEXEC_CRASH_MEM_ALIGN.

This patch defines for s390 an ABI defined pointer to the vmcoreinfo note at a well known address. With this patch tools are able to find this information in dumps created by stand-alone or hypervisor dump tools. Signed-off-by:

Michael Holzheu authored
Currently the vmcoreinfo note is only initialized in case of kdump. On s390 it is possible to create kernel dumps with other dump mechanisms than kdump (e.g. via hypervisor dump or stand-alone dump tools). For those dumps it would also be desirable to include the vmcoreinfo data. To accomplish this, with this patch the vmcoreinfo ELF note is always initialized, not only in case of a (kdump) crash. On s390 we will add an ABI defined pointer at a well known address to vmcoreinfo so that dump analysis tools are able to find this information. In particular on s390 we have a tool named zgetdump. With this tool it is possible to convert dump formats on the fly using fuse. E.g. you can mount a s390 stand-alone dump as ELF dump. When this is done, the tool finds the vmcoreinfo in the stand-alone dump via the well known ABI defined address and it creates the respective VMCOREINFO ELF note in the output ELF dump. This then can be used e.g. by makedumpfile for dump filtering. No more need for a vmlinux file with debug information. So this will look like the following: $ zgetdump --mount standalone.dump -f elf /mnt $ ls /mnt dump.elf $ readelf -n /mnt/dump.elf $ ... VMCOREINFO 0x00000474 Unknown note type: (0x00000000) $ makedumpfile -c -d 31 /mnt/dump.elf dump.kdump Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Acked-by:

PSW restart can be triggered on offline CPUs. If this happens, currently the PSW restart code fails, because functions like smp_processor_id() do not work on offline CPUs. This patch fixes this as follows: If PSW restart is triggered on an offline CPU, the PSW restart (sigp restart) is done a second time on another CPU that is online and the old CPU is stopped afterwards.

Currently only the address of the pre-allocated ELF header is passed with the elfcorehdr= kernel parameter. In order to reserve memory for the header in the 2nd kernel also the size is required. Current kdump architecture backends use different methods to do that, e.g. x86 uses the memmap= kernel parameter. On s390 there is no easy way to transfer this information. Therefore the elfcorehdr kernel parameter is extended to also pass the size. This now can also be used as standard mechanism by all future kdump architecture backends. The syntax of the kernel parameter is extended as follows: elfcorehdr=[size[KMG]@]offset[KMG] This change is backward compatible because elfcorehdr=size is still allowed. Acked-by:

On s390 there is a different KEXEC_CONTROL_MEMORY_LIMIT for the normal and the kdump kexec case. Therefore this patch introduces a new macro KEXEC_CRASH_CONTROL_MEMORY_LIMIT. This is set to KEXEC_CONTROL_MEMORY_LIMIT for all architectures that do not define KEXEC_CRASH_CONTROL_MEMORY_LIMIT. Acked-by:

The rcu page table free code uses a couple of bits in the page table pointer passed to tlb_remove_table to discern the different page table types. __tlb_remove_table extracts the type with an incorrect mask which leads to memory leaks.

git commit 5e9a2692 "[S390] ptrace cleanup" introduced a regression for the case when both a user PER set (e.g. a storage alteration trace) and PTRACE_SINGLESTEP are active. The new code will overrule the user PER set with a instruction-fetch PER set over the whole address space for ptrace single stepping. The inferior process will be stopped after each instruction with an instruction fetch event. Any other events that may have occurred concurrently are not reported (e.g. storage alteration event) because the control bits for them are not set. The solution is to merge the PER control bits of the user PER set with the PER_EVENT_IFETCH control bit for PTRACE_SINGLESTEP. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by:
