[S390] perf: add support for s390x CPU counters

2012-03-23T10:13:25+00:00

Add a perf PMU to access the CPU-measurement counter facility CPUM CF.
CPUM CF provides multiple counter sets for measuring generic,
problem-state, and crypto activaties.  Also an extended counter set for
the IBM System z10 and IBM z196 mainframes is available.

Counters from the basic and problem-state counter set are mapped to
generic perf hardware events.  Other counters are accessible through
raw events.

For a list of available counter sets and counters, see:

  - The Load-Program-Parameter and the CPU-Measurement Facilities (SA23-2260)
  - The CPU-Measurement Facility Extended Counters Definition for
    z10 and z196 (SA23-2261)

[S390] kernel: Add OS info memory interface

2012-03-11T15:59:29+00:00

In order to allow kdump based stand-alone dump, some information
has to be passed from the old kernel to the new dump kernel. This
is done via a the struct "os_info" that contains the following fields:
 * crashkernel base and size
 * reipl block
 * vmcoreinfo
 * init function
A pointer to os_info is stored at a well known storage location
and the whole structure as well as all fields are secured with
checksums.

[S390] kernel: Add z/VM LGR detection

2012-03-11T15:59:29+00:00

Currently the following mechanisms are available to move active
Linux on System z instances between machines:
* z/VM 6.2 SSI (Single System Image)
* Suspend/resume
For moving Linux instances in this patch the term LGR (Linux Guest
Relocation) is used. Because such an operation is critical, it
should be detectable from Linux. With this patch for both, a live
system and a kernel dump, the information about LGRs is accessible.
To identify a guest, stsi and stfle data is used. A new function
lgr_info_log() compares the current data (lgr_info_cur) with the
last recorded one (lgr_info_last). In case the two data sets differ,
lgr_info_cur is logged to the "lgr" s390dbf.

The following trigger points call lgr_info_log():
* panic
* die
* kdump
* LGR timer
* PSW restart
* QDIO recovery
* resume

This patch also changes the s390dbf hex_ascii view. Now only printable ASCII
characters are shown.

[S390] rework smp code

2012-03-11T15:59:28+00:00

Define struct pcpu and merge some of the NR_CPUS arrays into it, including
__cpu_logical_map, current_set and smp_cpu_state. Split smp related
functions to those operating on physical cpus and the functions operating
on a logical cpu number. Make the functions for physical cpus use a
pointer to a struct pcpu. This hides the knowledge about cpu addresses in
smp.c, entry[64].S and swsusp_asm64.S, thus remove the sigp.h header.

The PSW restart mechanism is used to start secondary cpus, calling a
function on an online cpu, calling a function on the ipl cpu, and for
the nmi signal. Replace the different assembler functions with a
single function restart_int_handler. The new entry point calls a function
whose pointer is stored in the lowcore of the target cpu and it can wait
for the source cpu to stop. This covers all existing use cases.

Overall the code is now simpler and there are ~380 lines less code.

[S390] topology: get rid of ifdefs

2011-12-27T10:27:10+00:00

Remove all ifdefs from topology code and also only compile it for the
CONFIG_SCHED_BOOK case. The new code selects SCHED_MC if SCHED_BOOK is
selected. SCHED_MC without SCHED_BOOK is not possible anymore.
Furthermore various sysfs attributes are not available anymore for the
!SCHED_BOOK case. In particular all attributes that correspond to
CPU polarization.
But since all real world kernels have SCHED_BOOK selected anyway this
doesn't matter too much.

jump label: Add s390 support

2011-04-04T17:43:16+00:00

Implement the architecture backend for jump label support on s390.

For a shared kernel booted from a NSS silently disable jump labels
because the NSS is read-only. Therefore jump labels will be disabled
in a shared kernel and can't be activated.

[S390] add support for compressed kernels

2010-02-26T21:37:33+00:00

Add the "bzImage" compile target and the necessary code  to generate
compressed kernel images. The old style uncompressed "image" target
is preserved, a simple make will build them both.

[S390] smp: always reboot on cpu 0

2010-02-26T21:37:30+00:00

Always reboot on logical cpu 0. This makes sure that the IPL cpu is
always the same and usually avoids strange numbering schemes between
physical and logical cpus.
