For at least the mvc and clc instructions llvm's integrated assembler can generate incorrect code. In particular this happens with decompressor boot code. The reason seems to be that relocations for the second displacement of each instruction are at incorrect locations (-/+: gas vs llvm IAS): mvc __LC_IO_NEW_PSW(16),.Lnewpsw results in 4: d2 0f 01 f0 00 00 mvc 496(16,%r0),0 - 8: R_390_12 .head.text+0x10 + 6: R_390_12 .head.text+0x10 and clc 0(3,%r4),.L_hdr results in 258: d5 02 40 00 00 00 clc 0(3,%r4),0 - 25c: R_390_12 .head.text+0x324 + 25a: R_390_12 .head.text+0x324 Workaround this by writing the code in a different way.

clang fails to handle ".if" statements in inline assembly which are heavily used in the alternatives code. To work around this remove this code, and enforce that users of alternatives must specify original and alternative instruction sequences which have identical sizes. Add a compile time check with two ".org" statements similar to arm64. In result not only clang can handle this, but also quite a lot of code can be removed.

gcc 12 does not (always) optimize away code that should only be generated if parameters are constant and within in a certain range. This depends on various obscure kernel config options, however in particular PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES can trigger this compile error: In function ‘__atomic_add_const’, inlined from ‘__preempt_count_add.part.0’ at ./arch/s390/include/asm/preempt.h:50:3: ./arch/s390/include/asm/atomic_ops.h:80:9: error: impossible constraint in ‘asm’ 80 | asm volatile( \ | ^~~ Workaround this by simply disabling the optimization for PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES, since the kernel will be so slow, that this optimization won't matter at all.

PMU device driver perf_pai_crypto supports Processor Activity Instrumentation (PAI), available with IBM z16: - maps a full page to lowcore address 0x1500. - uses CR0 bit 13 to turn PAI crypto counting on and off. - creates a sample with raw data on each context switch out when at context switch some mapped counters have a value of nonzero. This device driver only supports CPU wide context, no task context is allowed. Support for counting: - one or more counters can be specified using perf stat -e pai_crypto/xxx/ where xxx stands for the counter event name. Multiple invocation of this command is possible. The counter names are listed in /sys/devices/pai_crypto/events directory. - one special counters can be specified using perf stat -e pai_crypto/CRYPTO_ALL/ which returns the sum of all incremented crypto counters. - one event pai_crypto/CRYPTO_ALL/ is reserved for sampling. No multiple invocations are possible. The event collects data at context switch out and saves them in the ring buffer. Add qpaci assembly instruction to query supported memory mapped crypto counters. It returns the number of counters (no holes allowed in that range). The PAI crypto counter events are system wide and can not be executed in parallel. Therefore some restrictions documented in function paicrypt_busy apply. In particular event CRYPTO_ALL for sampling must run exclusive. Only counting events can run in parallel. PAI crypto counter events can not be created when a CPU hot plug add is processed. This means a CPU hot plug add does not get the necessary PAI event to record PAI cryptography counter increments on the newly added CPU. CPU hot plug remove removes the event and terminates the counting of PAI counters immediately.

LLVM's integrated assembler reports the following error when compiling entry.S: <instantiation>:38:5: error: unknown token in expression tm %r8,0x0001 # coming from user space? The correct instruction would have been tmhh instead of tm. The current code is doing nothing, since (with gas) it get's translated to a tm instruction which reads from real address 8, which again contains always zero, and therefore the conditional code is never executed. Note that due to the missing displacement gas translates "%r8" into "8(%r0)". Also code inspection reveals that this conditional code is not needed. Therefore remove it.

Currently many console drivers for s390 rely on panic/reboot notifiers to invoke callbacks on these events. The panic() function disables local IRQs, secondary CPUs and preemption, so callbacks invoked on panic are effectively running in atomic context. Happens that most of these console callbacks from s390 doesn't take the proper care with regards to atomic context, like taking spinlocks that might be taken in other function/CPU and hence will cause a lockup situation. The goal for this patch is to improve the notifiers reliability, acting on 4 console drivers, as detailed below: (1) con3215: changed a regular spinlock to the trylock alternative. (2) con3270: also changed a regular spinlock to its trylock counterpart, but here we also have another problem: raw3270_activate_view() takes a different spinlock. So, we worked a helper to validate if this other lock is safe to acquire, and if so, raw3270_activate_view() should be safe. Notice though that there is a functional change here: it's now possible to continue the notifier code [reaching con3270_wait_write() and con3270_rebuild_update()] without executing raw3270_activate_view(). (3) sclp: a global lock is used heavily in the functions called from the notifier, so we added a check here - if the lock is taken already, we just bail-out, preventing the lockup. (4) sclp_vt220: same as (3), a lock validation was added to prevent the potential lockup problem. Besides (1)-(4), we also removed useless void functions, adding the code called from the notifier inside its own body, and changed the priority of such notifiers to execute late, since they are "heavyweight" for the panic environment, so we aim to reduce risks here. Changed return values to NOTIFY_DONE as well, the standard one. Signed-off-by: Guilherme G.

test_barrier fails on s390 because of the missing KCSAN instrumentation for several synchronization primitives. Add it to barriers by defining __mb(), __rmb(), __wmb(), __dma_rmb() and __dma_wmb(), and letting the common code in asm-generic/barrier.h do the rest. Spinlocks require instrumentation only on the unlock path; notify KCSAN that the CPU cannot move memory accesses outside of the spin lock. In reality it also cannot move stores inside of it, but this is not important and can be omitted.

Currently it is not detectable from within Linux when PCI instructions are retried because of a busy condition. Detecting such conditions and especially how long they lasted can however be quite useful in problem determination. This patch enables this by adding an s390dbf error log when a CC 2 is first encountered as well as after the retried instruction. Despite being unlikely it may be possible that these added debug messages drown out important other messages so allow setting the debug level in zpci_err_insn*() and set their level to 1 so they can be filtered out if need be.

Currently when a PCI instruction returns a non-zero condition code it can be very hard to tell from the s390dbf logs what kind of instruction was executed. In case of PCI memory I/O (MIO) instructions it is even impossible to tell if we attempted a load, store or block store or how large the access was because only the address is logged. Improve this by adding an indicator byte for the instruction type to the error record and also store the length of the access for MIO instructions where this can not be deduced from the request. We use the following indicator values: - 'l': PCI load - 's': PCI store - 'b': PCI store block - 'L': PCI load (MIO) - 'S': PCI store (MIO) - 'B': PCI store block (MIO) - 'M': MPCIFC - 'R': RPCIT Reviewed-by: Matthew Rosato <mjrosato@linux.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Pierre Morel <pmorel@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Niklas Schnelle <schnelle@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <hca@linux.ibm.com>

Availability events are logged in s390dbf in s390dbf/pci_error/hex_ascii even though they don't indicate an error condition. They have also become redundant as commit 6526a597 ("s390/pci: add simpler s390dbf traces for events") added an s390dbf/pci_msg/sprintf log entry for availability events which contains all non reserved fields of struct zpci_ccdf_avail. On the other hand the availability entries in the error log make it easy to miss actual errors and may even overwrite error entries if the message buffer wraps. Thus simply remove the availability events from the error log thereby establishing the rule that any content in s390dbf/pci_error indicates some kind of error.

While the zpci_dbg() macro offers a level parameter this is currently largely unused. The only instance with higher importance than 3 is the UID checking change debug message which is not actually more important as the UID uniqueness guarantee is already exposed in sysfs so this should rather be 3 as well. On the other hand the "add ..." message which shows what devices are visible at the lowest level is essential during problem determination. By setting its level to 1, lowering the debug level can act as a filter to only show the available functions. On the error side the default level is set to 6 while all existing messages are printed at level 0. This is inconsistent and means there is no room for having messages be invisible on the default level so instead set the default level to 3 like for errors matching the default for debug messages.

This patch introduces user space notifications for changes on the apmask or aqmask attributes. So it could be possible to write a udev rule to load/unload the vfio_ap kernel module based on changes of these masks. On chance of the apmask or aqmask an AP change event will be produced with an uevent environment variable showing the new APMASK or AQMASK mask. So a change on the apmask triggers an uvevent like this: KERNEL[490.160396] change /devices/ap (ap) ACTION=change DEVPATH=/devices/ap SUBSYSTEM=ap APMASK=0xffffffdfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff SEQNUM=13367 and a change on the aqmask looks like this: KERNEL[283.217642] change /devices/ap (ap) ACTION=change DEVPATH=/devices/ap SUBSYSTEM=ap AQMASK=0xfbffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff SEQNUM=13348 Only real changes to the masks are processed - the old and new masks are compared and no action is done if the values are equal (and thus no uevent). The emit of the uevent is the very last action done when a mask change is processed. However, there is no guarantee that all unbind/bind actions caused by the apmask/aqmask changes are completed when the apmask/aqmask change uevent is received in userspace.
