s390/time: fix sched_clock() overflow

2013-01-21T19:44:58+00:00

commit ed4f20943cd4c7b55105c04daedf8d63ab6d499c upstream.

Converting a 64 Bit TOD format value to nanoseconds means that the value
must be divided by 4.096. In order to achieve that we multiply with 125
and divide by 512.
When used within sched_clock() this triggers an overflow after appr.
417 days. Resulting in a sched_clock() return value that is much smaller
than previously and therefore may cause all sort of weird things in
subsystems that rely on a monotonic sched_clock() behaviour.

To fix this implement a tod_to_ns() helper function which converts TOD
values without overflow and call this function from both places that
open coded the conversion: sched_clock() and kvm_s390_handle_wait().

s390/compat: fix mmap compat system calls

2012-08-26T22:12:10+00:00

commit e85871218513c54f7dfdb6009043cb638f2fecbe upstream.

The native 31 bit and the compat behaviour for the mmap system calls differ:

In native 31 bit mode the passed in address for the mmap system call will be
unmodified passed to sys_mmap_pgoff().
In compat mode however the passed in address will be modified with
compat_ptr() which masks out the most significant bit.

The result is that in native 31 bit mode each mmap request (with MAP_FIXED)
will fail where the most significat bit is set, while in compat mode it
may succeed.

This odd behaviour was introduced with d3815898 "[S390] mmap: add missing
compat_ptr conversion to both mmap compat syscalls".

To restore a consistent behaviour accross native and compat mode this
patch functionally reverts the above mentioned commit.

compat: Re-add missing asm/compat.h include to fix compile breakage on s390

2012-03-19T15:57:58+00:00

For kernels <= 3.0 the backport of 048cd4e51d24ebf7f3552226d03c769d6ad91658
"compat: fix compile breakage on s390" will break compilation...

Re-add a single #include  in order to fix this.

This patch is _not_ necessary for upstream, only for stable kernels
which include the "build fix" mentioned above.

compat: fix compile breakage on s390

2012-03-12T17:32:38+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.

add missing .set function for NT_S390_LAST_BREAK regset

2011-12-09T16:52:45+00:00

commit b934069c991355d27a053a932591c77960f4e414 upstream.

The last breaking event address is a read-only value, the regset misses the
.set function. If a PTRACE_SETREGSET is done for NT_S390_LAST_BREAK we
get an oops due to a branch to zero:

Kernel BUG at 0000000000000002 verbose debug info unavailable

user per registers vs. ptrace single stepping

2011-11-11T17:36:08+00:00

commit a45aff5285871bf7be1781d9462d3fdbb6c913f9 upstream.

git commit 5e9a2692 "[S390] ptrace cleanup" introduced a regression
for the case when both a user PER set (e.g. a storage alteration trace) and
PTRACE_SINGLESTEP are active. The new code will overrule the user PER set
with a instruction-fetch PER set over the whole address space for ptrace
single stepping. The inferior process will be stopped after each instruction
with an instruction fetch event. Any other events that may have occurred
concurrently are not reported (e.g. storage alteration event) because the
control bits for them are not set. The solution is to merge the PER control
bits of the user PER set with the PER_EVENT_IFETCH control bit for
PTRACE_SINGLESTEP.

[S390] allow setting of upper 32 bit in smp_ctl_set_bit

2011-06-22T14:24:20+00:00

The bit shift operation in smp_ctl_set_bit does not specify the type
of the shifted bit so integer is used as default. Therefore it is not
possible to set bits in the upper 32 bit of the control register if
the kernel runs in 64 bit mode. Fix this by specifying the type as
unsigned long.

Merge branch 'setns'

2011-05-28T17:51:01+00:00

* setns:
  ns: Wire up the setns system call

Done as a merge to make it easier to fix up conflicts in arm due to
addition of sendmmsg system call

ns: Wire up the setns system call

2011-05-28T17:48:39+00:00

32bit and 64bit on x86 are tested and working.  The rest I have looked
at closely and I can't find any problems.

setns is an easy system call to wire up.  It just takes two ints so I
don't expect any weird architecture porting problems.

While doing this I have noticed that we have some architectures that are
very slow to get new system calls.  cris seems to be the slowest where
the last system calls wired up were preadv and pwritev.  avr32 is weird
in that recvmmsg was wired up but never declared in unistd.h.  frv is
behind with perf_event_open being the last syscall wired up.  On h8300
the last system call wired up was epoll_wait.  On m32r the last system
call wired up was fallocate.  mn10300 has recvmmsg as the last system
call wired up.  The rest seem to at least have syncfs wired up which was
new in the 2.6.39.

v2: Most of the architecture support added by Daniel Lezcano 
v3: ported to v2.6.36-rc4 by: Eric W. Biederman 
v4: Moved wiring up of the system call to another patch
v5: ported to v2.6.39-rc6
v6: rebased onto parisc-next and net-next to avoid syscall  conflicts.
v7: ported to Linus's latest post 2.6.39 tree.
