s390/signal: set correct address space control

2012-12-06T11:20:04+00:00

commit fa968ee215c0ca91e4a9c3a69ac2405aae6e5d2f upstream.

If user space is running in primary mode it can switch to secondary
or access register mode, this is used e.g. in the clock_gettime code
of the vdso. If a signal is delivered to the user space process while
it has been running in access register mode the signal handler is
executed in access register mode as well which will result in a crash
most of the time.

Set the address space control bits in the PSW to the default for the
execution of the signal handler and make sure that the previous
address space control is restored on signal return. Take care
that user space can not switch to the kernel address space by
modifying the registers in the signal frame.

s390/mm: downgrade page table after fork of a 31 bit process

2012-08-09T23:24:54+00:00

commit 0f6f281b731d20bfe75c13f85d33f3f05b440222 upstream.

The downgrade of the 4 level page table created by init_new_context is
currently done only in start_thread31. If a 31 bit process forks the
new mm uses a 4 level page table, including the task size of 2<<42
that goes along with it. This is incorrect as now a 31 bit process
can map memory beyond 2GB. Define arch_dup_mmap to do the downgrade
after fork.

fix tlb flushing for page table pages

2012-04-22T22:31:10+00:00

commit cd94154cc6a28dd9dc271042c1a59c08d26da886 upstream.

Git commit 36409f6353fc2d7b6516e631415f938eadd92ffa "use generic RCU
page-table freeing code" introduced a tlb flushing bug. Partially revert
the above git commit and go back to s390 specific page table flush code.

For s390 the TLB can contain three types of entries, "normal" TLB
page-table entries, TLB combined region-and-segment-table (CRST) entries
and real-space entries. Linux does not use real-space entries which
leaves normal TLB entries and CRST entries. The CRST entries are
intermediate steps in the page-table translation called translation paths.
For example a 4K page access in a three-level page table setup will
create two CRST TLB entries and one page-table TLB entry. The advantage
of that approach is that a page access next to the previous one can reuse
the CRST entries and needs just a single read from memory to create the
page-table TLB entry. The disadvantage is that the TLB flushing rules are
more complicated, before any page-table may be freed the TLB needs to be
flushed.

In short: the generic RCU page-table freeing code is incorrect for the
CRST entries, in particular the check for mm_users < 2 is troublesome.

This is applicable to 3.0+ kernels.

compat: fix compile breakage on s390

2012-03-12T19:31:22+00:00

commit 048cd4e51d24ebf7f3552226d03c769d6ad91658 upstream.

The new is_compat_task() define for the !COMPAT case in
include/linux/compat.h conflicts with a similar define in
arch/s390/include/asm/compat.h.

This is the minimal patch which fixes the build issues.

procfs: do not confuse jiffies with cputime64_t

2011-12-30T00:31:57+00:00

Commit 2a95ea6c0d129b4 ("procfs: do not overflow get_{idle,iowait}_time
for nohz") did not take into account that one some architectures jiffies
and cputime use different units.

This causes get_idle_time() to return numbers in the wrong units, making
the idle time fields in /proc/stat wrong.

Instead of converting the usec value returned by
get_cpu_{idle,iowait}_time_us to units of jiffies, use the new function
usecs_to_cputime64 to convert it to the correct unit of cputime64_t.

[S390] fix page change underindication in pgste_update_all

2011-12-01T12:32:17+00:00

This patch makes sure we don't underindicate _PAGE_CHANGED in case
we have a race between an operation that changes the page and this
code path that hits us between page_get_storage_key and
page_set_storage_key. Note that we still have a potential
underindication on _PAGE_REFERENCED in the unlikely event that
the page was changed but not referenced _and_ someone references
the page in the race window. That's not considered to be a problem.

SIGP sense running may cause an intercept on higher level
virtualization, so handle it by checking the CPUSTAT_RUNNING flag.

KVM: s390: Fix RUNNING flag misinterpretation

2011-11-17T14:25:43+00:00

CPUSTAT_RUNNING was implemented signifying that a vcpu is not stopped.
This is not, however, what the architecture says: RUNNING should be
set when the host is acting on the behalf of the guest operating
system.

CPUSTAT_RUNNING has been changed to be set in kvm_arch_vcpu_load()
and to be unset in kvm_arch_vcpu_put().

For signifying stopped state of a vcpu, a host-controlled bit has
been used and is set/unset basically on the reverse as the old
CPUSTAT_RUNNING bit (including pushing it down into stop handling
proper in handle_stop()).

[S390] avoid STCKF if running in ESA mode

2011-11-14T10:19:09+00:00

In ESA mode STCKF is not defined even if the facility bit is enabled.
To prevent an illegal operation we must also check if we run a 64 bit kernel.
To make the check perform well add the STCKF bit to the machine flags.
