      [S390] convert etr/stp to stop_machine interface · 750887de
      Heiko Carstens authored 
      This converts the etr and stp code to the new stop_machine interface
which allows to synchronize all cpus without allocating any memory.
This way we get rid of the only reason why we haven't converted s390
to the generic IPI interface yet.

      [S390] introduce vdso on s390 · b020632e
      Martin Schwidefsky authored 
      Add a vdso to speed up gettimeofday and clock_getres/clock_gettime for
CLOCK_REALTIME/CLOCK_MONOTONIC.

      [S390] arch_setup_additional_pages arguments · fc5243d9
      Martin Schwidefsky authored 
      arch_setup_additional_pages currently gets two arguments, the binary
format descripton and an indication if the process uses an executable
stack or not. The second argument is not used by anybody, it could
be removed without replacement.

What actually does make sense is to pass an indication if the process
uses the elf interpreter or not. The glibc code will not use anything
from the vdso if the process does not use the dynamic linker, so for
statically linked binaries the architecture backend can choose not
to map the vdso.

      [S390] vmcp: remove BKL · a114a9d6
      Christian Borntraeger authored 
      The vmcp driver uses the session->mutex for concurrent access of the data
structures. Therefore, the BKL in vmcp_open does not protect against any
other function in the driver.
The BLK in vmcp_open would protect concurrent access to the module init
but all necessary steps ave finished before misc_register is called.
We can safely remove the lock_kernel from vcmp.

      [S390] cpu topology: dont destroy cpu sets on topology change · f414f5f1
      Heiko Carstens authored 
      Call rebuild_sched_domains instead of arch_reinit_sched_domains if
cpu topology changes. This leaves cpu sets alone which otherwise would
be destroyed.
If and how it makes sense to define cpu sets on a virtualized
architecture is another question.

      [S390] audit: get s390 ret_from_fork in sync with other architectures · 8f2961c3
      Al Viro authored 
      	On s390 we have ret_from_fork jump not to the "do all work we
normally do on return from syscall" as on x86, ppc, etc., but to the
"do all such work except audit".  Historical reasons - the codepath
triggered when we have AUDIT process flag set is separated from the
normall one and they converge at sysc_return, which is the common
part of post-syscall work.  And does not include calling audit_syscall_exit() -
that's done in the end of sysc_tracesys path, just before that path jumps
to sysc_return.

	IOW, the child returning from fork()/clone()/vfork() doesn't
call audit_syscall_exit() at all, so no matter what we do with its
audit context, we are not going to see the audit entry.

	The fix is simple: have ret_from_fork go to the point just past
the call of sys_.... in the 'we have AUDIT flag set' path.  There we
have (64bit variant; for 31bit the situation is the same):
sysc_tracenogo:
        tm      __TI_flags+7(%r9),(_TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE|_TIF_SYSCALL_AUDIT)
        jz      sysc_return
        la      %r2,SP_PTREGS(%r15)     # load pt_regs
        larl    %r14,sysc_return        # return point is sysc_return
        jg      do_syscall_trace_exit
which is precisely what we need - check the flag, bugger off to sysc_return
if not set, otherwise call do_syscall_trace_exit() and bugger off to
sysc_return.  r9 has just been properly set by ret_from_fork itself,
so we are fine.

	Tested on s390x, seems to work fine.  WARNING: it's been about
16 years since my last contact with 3X0 assembler[1], so additional
review would be very welcome.  I don't think I've managed to screw it
up, but...

[1] that *was* in another country and besides, the box is dead...

      [S390] cpu topology: fix cpu_core_map initialization · 5439050f
      Heiko Carstens authored 
      Common code doesn't call arch_update_cpu_topology() anymore on
cpu hotplug. But our architecture backend relied on that in order to
update the cpu_core_map. For machines without cpu topology support
this leads uninitialized cpu_core_maps for later on added cpus.

To solve this just initialize the maps with cpu_possible_map, since
that will be always valid for machines without topology support.
