[S390] dasd: do path verification for paths added at runtime · a4d26c6a

Stefan Weinhuber authored Jan 05, 2011

When a new path is added at runtime, the CIO layer will call the drivers
path_event callback. The DASD device driver uses this callback to trigger
a path verification for the new path. The driver will use only those
paths for I/O, which have been successfully verified.

[S390] dasd: add High Performance FICON multitrack support · ef19298b

Stefan Weinhuber authored Jan 05, 2011

Some storage systems support multitrack High Performance FICON
requests, which read or write data to more than one track.
This patch enables the DASD device driver to generate multitrack
High Performance FICON requests.

[S390] cio: reduce memory consumption of itcw structures · 9062014c

Stefan Weinhuber authored Jan 05, 2011

Any list of indirect data adresses (TIDAL) used by a TCW must not
cross a page boundary. The original itcw implementation complies with
this restriction by allocating allmost twice as much memory as
actually needed, so that in any case there is enough room for the full
TIDAL, either above or below the page boundary.
This patch implements an alternative method, by using a TTIC TIDAW to
connect TIDAL parts below and above a page boundary.

[S390] nmi: enable machine checks early · f3e1a273

Heiko Carstens authored Jan 05, 2011

Until now machine checks for the swapper process of the IPL cpu are just
implicitly (and more or less accidently) enabled when the first time the
idle process goes into idle state and loads an enabled wait psw.
Before that machine checks are disabled.
So let's enable them explicitly in trap_init() so we have a well defined
time when machine checks are enabled.

[S390] qeth: buffer count imbalance · aa3a41d0

The used buffers counter is not incremented in case of an error so
the counter can become negative. Increment the used buffers counter

[S390] 31 bit entry.S update. · 1de3447a

Martin Schwidefsky authored Jan 05, 2011

Make the code in the 31 bit entry.S code as similar as possible to the
64 bit version in entry64.S. That makes it easier to add new code to
the first level interrupt handler that affects both 31 and 64 bit kernels.

[S390] nohz: optimize arch_needs_cpu() · 37e89521

Heiko Carstens authored Jan 05, 2011

arch_needs_cpu() gets always executed on the current cpu. Therefore
the cpu parameter can be ignored it is possible to use __get_cpu_var()
instead of per_cpu() to access the per_cpu variable, which will
generate better code.

[S390] qdio: remove enhanced SIGA · 110da317

Jan Glauber authored Jan 05, 2011

HiperSocket devices only use one SBAL per qdio call without the enhanced SIGA
feature. Since that feature is currently not used remove it from the qdio code
so the compiler can generate better code for the HiperSocket outbound path.
While at it mark the SIGA error conditions as unlikely.

[S390] qdio: use proper QEBSM operand for SIGA-R and SIGA-S · 958c0ba4

Jan Glauber authored Jan 05, 2011

If QIOASSIST is enabled for a qdio device the SIGA instruction requires
a modified function code. This function code modifier was missing for
SIGA-R and SIGA-S which can lead to a kernel panic caused by an
operand exception.

[S390] qdio: outbound tasklet scan threshold · 3d6c76ff

Jan Glauber authored Jan 05, 2011

Introduce a scan treshold for the qdio outbound queues. By setting the
threshold the driver can tell qdio after how much used SBALs qdio
should schedule the outbound tasklet that scans the queue for finished
SBALs. The threshold is specific by the drivers because a
Hipersockets device is much faster in utilizing outbound buffers than a
ZFCP or OSA device.

The default values after how many used SBALs the tasklet should run are:

OSA:          > 31 SBALs
Hipersockets: > 7 SBALs
zfcp:         > 55 SBALs

[S390] qdio: prevent race for shared indicators · 4f325184

Jan Glauber authored Jan 05, 2011

If the shared indicator is used the following race leads to
an inbound stall:

Device                  CPU0                    CPU1
========================================================

non-shared DSCI =>1
ALSI => 1
                        Thin INT
                        ALSI => 0

                        non-shared DSCI
                        tasklets scheduled

shared DSCI => 1
ALSI => 1

                        shared DSCI => 0
                        ALSI ? -> set
                                                Thin INT
                                                ALSI => 0
                        ALSI was set,
                        shared DSCI => 1

After that no more interrupts occur because the DSCI is still set.
Fix that race by only resetting the shared DSCI if it was actually
set so the tasklets for all shared devices are scheduled and will
run after the interrupt.
