s390/mm: limit STACK_RND_MASK for compat tasks

2015-03-13T11:15:45+00:00

For compat tasks the mmap randomization does not use the maximum
randomization value from mmap_rnd_mask but the fixed value of 0x7ff.
This needs to be respected in the definition of STACK_RND_MASK as
well.

KVM: s390: include guest facilities in kvm facility test

2015-03-04T09:33:25+00:00

Most facility related decisions in KVM have to take into account:

- the facilities offered by the underlying run container (LPAR/VM)
- the facilities supported by the KVM code itself
- the facilities requested by a guest VM

This patch adds the KVM driver requested facilities to the test routine.

It additionally renames struct s390_model_fac to kvm_s390_fac and its field
names to be more meaningful.

The semantics of the facilities stored in the KVM architecture structure
is changed. The address arch.model.fac->list now points to the guest
facility list and arch.model.fac->mask points to the KVM facility mask.

This patch fixes the behaviour of KVM for some facilities for guests
that ignore the guest visible facility bits, e.g. guests could use
transactional memory intructions on hosts supporting them even if the
chosen cpu model would not offer them.

The userspace interface is not affected by this change.

s390/mm: fix incorrect ASCE after crst_table_downgrade

2015-03-02T19:35:57+00:00

The switch_mm function does nothing in case the prev and next mm
are the same. It can happen that a crst_table_downgrade has changed
the top-level pgd in the meantime on a different CPU. Always store
the new ASCE to be picked up in entry.S.

[heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com]: Bug was introduced with git commit
53e857f30867 ("s390/mm,tlb: race of lazy TLB flush vs. recreation
of TLB entries") and causes random crashes due to broken page tables
being used.

mm: add missing __PAGETABLE_{PUD,PMD}_FOLDED defines

2015-02-28T17:57:51+00:00

Core mm expects __PAGETABLE_{PUD,PMD}_FOLDED to be defined if these page
table levels folded.  Usually, these defines are provided by
 and .

But some architectures fold page table levels in a custom way.  They
need to define these macros themself.  This patch adds missing defines.

The patch fixes mm->nr_pmds underflow and eliminates dead __pmd_alloc()
and __pud_alloc() on architectures without these page table levels.

s390: let the compiler do page clearing

2015-02-26T08:24:49+00:00

The hardware folks told me that for page clearing "when you exactly
know what to do, hand written xc+pfd is usally faster then mvcl for
page clearing, as it saves millicode overhead and parameter parsing
and checking" as long as you dont need the cache bypassing.
Turns out that gcc already does a proper xc,pfd loop.

A small test on z196 that does

buff = mmap(NULL, bufsize,PROT_EXEC|PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ,AP_PRIVATE| MAP_ANONYMOUS,0,0);
for ( i = 0; i < bufsize; i+= 256)
    buff[i] = 0x5;

gets 20% faster (touches every cache line of a page)

and

buff = mmap(NULL, bufsize,PROT_EXEC|PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ,AP_PRIVATE| MAP_ANONYMOUS,0,0);
for ( i = 0; i < bufsize; i+= 4096)
    buff[i] = 0x5;

is within noise ratio (touches one cache line of a page).

As the clear_page is usually called for first memory accesses
we can assume that at least one cache line is used afterwards,
so this change should be always better.
Another benchmark, a make -j 40 of my testsuite in tmpfs with
hot caches on a 32cpu system:

 -- unpatched --       --  patched  --
real     0m1.017s     real     0m0.994s   (~2% faster, but in noise)
user     0m5.339s     user     0m5.016s   (~6% faster)
sys      0m0.691s     sys      0m0.632s   (~8% faster)

Let use the same define to memset as the asm-generic variant
