The numeric representation of the xsch instruction was incorrectly specified, resulting in reserved fields of the instruction opcode potentially being set to a non-zero value. While this doesn't currently cause any problem, a future architecture might make use of these fields so that the current specification could result in an exception or unwanted side-effects. Fix this by using the xsch instruction code for which support in binutils was added in 2003. Signed-off-by:

There is no longer a need to maintain two versions of the same inline assembly - one with exception handling, and one without - so get rid of the duplicates and adjust names accordingly. This applies to stsch_err and msch_err which are now renamed to stsch and msch respectively, while the original msch function is removed. Signed-off-by:

Over time some machine flags got unused (e.g. MACHINE_FLAG_MVPG) or are available on all 64bit systems (MACHINE_FLAG_CSP, MACHINE_FLAG_IEEE) - let's remove them. Reorder the other ones to match the order of the MACHINE_HAS_* macros and renumber all bits to avoid holes. Also fix the comment about where the flags are detected. Signed-off-by:

This is supposed to make debugging easier: if within a dump we can see that an external call or emergency signal IPI is pending but all cpus are idle, we have no idea for how long the interrupt is outstanding. Therefore save a timestamp into the per cpu pcpu array of the target cpu whenever such an IPI is sent. Signed-off-by:

head.S on s390 contains some sanity checks if the kernel will run on a machine or if the machine is too old, e.g. if the kernel contains instructions not available on the machine. If so, it will emit an error message to the console before it stops execution. Therefore head.S contains only instructions which are availanble with the earliest machine generation (z900). In order to make sure we don't accidently add instructions which are not available on z900, always compile with -march=z900. This makes sure compilation will fail if wrong instructions are used.

It is already possible to remove CFLAGS with the CFLAGS_REMOVE option that was introduced with commit 656ee82c ("kbuild: create new CFLAGS_REMOVE_(basename).o option"). However it is not possible to remove AFLAGS for assembler files. So this patch just adds the AFLAGS_REMOVE option which works the same like CFLAGS_REMOVE. Signed-off-by:

Heiko Carstens authored
Modifying the architecture level set facility lists was always very error prone. Given the numbering of the facility bits within the Principles of Operation, where the most significant bit number is 0, it happened a lot of times that wrong bits were set or cleared. Therefore this patch adds a tool "gen_facilities" which generates include/generated/facilites.h. The definition of the bits to be set is contained within arch/s390/include/asm/facilities_src.h and can be easily extended to e.g. also generate such lists for the KVM module. The generated file looks like this: #define FACILITIES_ALS _AC(0xc1006450f0040000,UL) #define FACILITIES_ALS_DWORDS 1 The facility bits defined in this patch match 1:1 to the current masks that can be found in head.S. That is if the tool gets executed with -march=z990 then the generated masks will equal the masks in head.S for CONFIG_MARCH_Z990. Signed-off-by:

head.s contains an stfle instruction which stores it result at the storage location that is assigned to the stfl instruction. This is currently no problem, since we only care about one double word. However if the number of double words in the ALS bitfield grows the current code is not very stable. E.g. before issuing the stfle command the memory to which it stores must be cleared, since the instruction may or may not clear memory contents where no bits are set. In order to simplify the code a bit always use the storage location that we reserved for the stfle result. Signed-off-by:

Now that 31 bit support is gone, the assembler always knows about the stfl instruction. Therefore lets use a readable mnemonic. Also remove the not needed extable entry for the inline assembly and fix the output constraint. Signed-off-by:

It does not make sense to try to relinquish the time slice with diag 0x9c to a CPU in a state that does not allow to schedule the CPU. The scenario where this can happen is a CPU waiting in udelay/mdelay while holding a spin-lock. Add a CIF bit to tag a CPU in enabled wait and use it to detect that the yield of a CPU will not be successful and skip the diagnose call. Reviewed-by:

Provide a user space interface and an enhancement to the sclp device driver which allows to send an 'Open for Business' event from the operating system to the Support Element. The 'Open for Business' event is used to signal the Support Element that the operating system (or an application running on top of it) is up and running. Signed-off-by:

When running under qemu with the default configuration (-nographic), there is only a VT220 SCLP console, no line-mode SCLP console. Add VT220 support to the early SCLP console so the user has a chance to see critical error messages during early boot. None of the existing users of _sclp_print_early() check the return code. Instead of trying to come up with return code semantics when printing to multiple consoles (any or all of which may fail), we just drop the return code entirely. Tested on z/VM (line mode console) and LPAR (VT220 and line mode console). Tested on qemu/KVM with VT220 console and / or line mode console. Signed-off-by:

Since commit c05ffc4f ("[S390] sclp: sysfs interface for SCLP cpi"), which was made 2008 the user can specify a system and sysplex name through the /sys/firmware/cpi interface. In addition to sysplex and system name, the user can also override the system type and system version. Because the syfs interface is easier to use and allows the settings to be updated, the sclp_cpi module becomes obsolete and can be removed. Signed-off-by:

DMA addresses returned from map_page() are calculated by using an iommu bitmap plus a start_dma offset. The size of this bitmap is based on the main memory size. If we have more than (4 TB - start_dma) main memory, the DMA address calculation will also produce addresses > 4 TB. Such addresses cannot be inserted in the 3-level DMA page table, instead the entries modulo 4 TB will be overwritten. Fix this by restricting the iommu bitmap size to (4 TB - start_dma). Also set zdev->end_dma to the actual end address of the usable range, instead of the theoretical maximum as reported by the hardware, which fixes a sanity check in dma_map() and also the IOMMU API domain geometry aperture calculation.

The spinlock implementation calls the diagnose 0x9c / 0x44 immediately if the SIGP sense running reported the target CPU as not running. The diagnose 0x9c is a hint to the hypervisor to schedule the target CPU in preference to the source CPU that issued the diagnose. It can happen that on return from the diagnose the target CPU has not been scheduled yet, e.g. if the target logical CPU is on another physical CPU and the hypervisor did not want to migrate the logical CPU. Avoid the immediate repeat of the diagnose instruction, instead do the retry loop before the next invocation of diagnose 0x9c. Reviewed-by:

Introduce save_area_alloc(), save_area_boot_cpu(), save_area_add_regs() and save_area_add_vxrs to deal with storing the CPU state in case of a system dump. Remove struct save_area and save_area_ext, and create a new struct save_area as a local definition to arch/s390/kernel/crash_dump.c. Copy each individual field from the hardware status area to the save area, storing the minimum of required data. Signed-off-by: -

To collect the CPU registers of the crashed system allocated a single page with memblock_alloc_base and use it as a copy buffer. Replace the stop-and-store-status sigp with a store-status-at-address sigp in smp_save_dump_cpus() and smp_store_status(). In both cases the target CPU is already stopped and store-status-at-address avoids the detour via the absolute zero page. For kexec simplify s390_reset_system and call store_status() before the prefix register of the boot CPU has been set to zero. Use STPX to store the prefix register and remove dump_prefix_page.

The /sys/kernel/debug/zcore/mem interface delivers the memory of the old system with the CPU registers stored to the assigned locations in each prefix page. For the vector registers the prefix page of each CPU has an address of a 1024 byte save area at 0x11b0. But the /sys/kernel/debug/zcore/mem interface fails copy the vector registers saved at boot of the zfcpdump kernel into the dump image. Copy the saved vector registers of a CPU to the outout buffer if the memory area that is read via /sys/kernel/debug/zcore/mem intersects with the vector register save area of this CPU. Acked-by:
