s390/mm: Fix memory hotplug for unaligned standby memory

2015-04-15T10:23:49+00:00

Commit 27356f54c8c3 ("mm/hotplug: verify hotplug memory range")
introduced a check that makes add_memory() only accept section size
aligned memory.

Therefore on z/VM systems, where standby memory is not aligned, no
standby memory is registered at all.

Example:

 #cp def store 3504M standby 2336M
 00: CP Q V STORE
 00: STORAGE = 3504M MAX = 6G INC = 8M STANDBY = 2336M RESERVED = 0

For this setup the following error message is printed:

 Section-unaligned hotplug range: start 0xdb000000, size 0x92000000

So fix this and register aligned memory in "sclp_cmd.c". This means
that for the corner cases where the standby memory is not aligned we
loose some memory.

In order to inform the user about the potential loss of standby memory,
we add a new message for each added standby block and print how
much of the standby memory is usable, for example:

 sclp_cmd.4336b4: Standby memory at 0x50000000 (256M of 256M usable)
 sclp_cmd.4336b4: Standby memory at 0xb0000000 (256M of 256M usable)
 sclp_cmd.4336b4: Standby memory at 0xdb000000 (2048M of 2336M usable)

We also ensure that a potential memory block that contains both "assigned"
and "standby" memory cannot be setup offline.

s390: remove 31 bit support

2015-03-25T10:49:33+00:00

Remove the 31 bit support in order to reduce maintenance cost and
effectively remove dead code. Since a couple of years there is no
distribution left that comes with a 31 bit kernel.

The 31 bit kernel also has been broken since more than a year before
anybody noticed. In addition I added a removal warning to the kernel
shown at ipl for 5 minutes: a960062e5826 ("s390: add 31 bit warning
message") which let everybody know about the plan to remove 31 bit
code. We didn't get any response.

Given that the last 31 bit only machine was introduced in 1999 let's
remove the code.
Anybody with 31 bit user space code can still use the compat mode.

Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm

2015-02-13T17:55:09+00:00

Pull KVM update from Paolo Bonzini:
 "Fairly small update, but there are some interesting new features.

  Common:
     Optional support for adding a small amount of polling on each HLT
     instruction executed in the guest (or equivalent for other
     architectures).  This can improve latency up to 50% on some
     scenarios (e.g. O_DSYNC writes or TCP_RR netperf tests).  This
     also has to be enabled manually for now, but the plan is to
     auto-tune this in the future.

  ARM/ARM64:
     The highlights are support for GICv3 emulation and dirty page
     tracking

  s390:
     Several optimizations and bugfixes.  Also a first: a feature
     exposed by KVM (UUID and long guest name in /proc/sysinfo) before
     it is available in IBM's hypervisor! :)

  MIPS:
     Bugfixes.

  x86:
     Support for PML (page modification logging, a new feature in
     Broadwell Xeons that speeds up dirty page tracking), nested
     virtualization improvements (nested APICv---a nice optimization),
     usual round of emulation fixes.

     There is also a new option to reduce latency of the TSC deadline
     timer in the guest; this needs to be tuned manually.

     Some commits are common between this pull and Catalin's; I see you
     have already included his tree.

  Powerpc:
     Nothing yet.

     The KVM/PPC changes will come in through the PPC maintainers,
     because I haven't received them yet and I might end up being
     offline for some part of next week"

s390: add SMT support

2015-01-22T11:16:01+00:00

The multi-threading facility is introduced with the z13 processor family.
This patch adds code to detect the multi-threading facility. With the
facility enabled each core will surface multiple hardware threads to the
system. Each hardware threads looks like a normal CPU to the operating
system with all its registers and properties.

The SCLP interface reports the SMT topology indirectly via the maximum
thread id. Each reported CPU in the result of a read-scp-information
is a core representing a number of hardware threads.

To reflect the reduced CPU capacity if two hardware threads run on a
single core the MT utilization counter set is used to normalize the
raw cputime obtained by the CPU timer deltas. This scaled cputime is
reported via the taskstats interface. The normal /proc/stat numbers
are based on the raw cputime and are not affected by the normalization.
