Pull s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:
"There are a couple of new things for s390 with this merge request:
- a new scheduling domain "drawer" is added to reflect the unusual
topology found on z13 machines. Performance tests showed up to 8
percent gain with the additional domain.
- the new crc-32 checksum crypto module uses the vector-galois-field
multiply and sum SIMD instruction to speed up crc-32 and crc-32c.
- proper __ro_after_init support, this requires RO_AFTER_INIT_DATA in
the generic vmlinux.lds linker script definitions.
- kcov instrumentation support. A prerequisite for that is the
inline assembly basic block cleanup, which is the reason for the
net/iucv/iucv.c change.
- support for 2GB pages is added to the hugetlbfs backend.
Then there are two removals:
- the oprofile hardware sampling support is dead code and is removed.
The oprofile user space uses the perf interface nowadays.
- the ETR clock synchronization is removed, this has been superseeded
be the STP clock synchronization. And it always has been
"interesting" code..
And the usual bug fixes and cleanups"

Use the same code structure when determining preferred consoles for
Linux running as KVM guest as with Linux running in LPAR and z/VM
guest:
- Extend the console_mode variable to cover vt220 and hvc consoles
- Determine sensible console defaults in conmode_default()
- Remove KVM-special handling in set_preferred_console()
Ensure that the sclp line mode console is also registered when the
vt220 console was selected to not change existing behavior that
someone might be relying on.
As an externally visible change, KVM guest users can now select
the 3270 or 3215 console devices using the conmode= kernel parameter,
provided that support for the corresponding driver was compiled into
the kernel.

__tlb_flush_asce() should never be used if multiple asce belong to a mm.
As this function changes mm logic determining if local or global tlb
flushes will be neded, we might end up flushing only the gmap asce on all
CPUs and a follow up mm asce flushes will only flush on the local CPU,
although that asce ran on multiple CPUs.
The missing tlb flushes will provoke strange faults in user space and even
low address protections in user space, crashing the kernel.

The __put_get_user_asm defines an inline assmembly which makes use of
the asm register construct. The parameters passed to that define may
also contain function calls.
It is a gcc restriction that between register asm statements and the
use of any such annotated variables function calls may clobber the
register / variable contents. Or in other words: gcc would generate
broken code.
This can be achieved e.g. with the following code:
get_user(x, func() ? a : b);
where the call of func would clobber register zero which is used by
the __put_get_user_asm define.
To avoid this add two static inline functions which don't have these
side effects.

The test_fp_ctl function is used to test if a given value is a valid
floating-point control. The inline assembly in test_fp_ctl uses an
incorrect constraint for the 'orig_fpc' variable. If the compiler
chooses the same register for 'fpc' and 'orig_fpc' the test_fp_ctl()
function always returns true. This allows user space to trigger
kernel oopses with invalid floating-point control values on the
signal stack.
This problem has been introduced with git commit 4725c86055f5bbdcdf

This is especially useful for irreversible operations -- such as

The usual problem for code that is ifdef'ed out is that it doesn't
compile after a while. That's also the case for the storage key
initialisation code, if it would be used (set PAGE_DEFAULT_KEY to
something not zero):
./arch/s390/include/asm/page.h: In function 'storage_key_init_range':
./arch/s390/include/asm/page.h:36:2: error: implicit declaration of function '__storage_key_init_range'
Since the code itself has been useful for debugging purposes several
times, remove the ifdefs and make sure the code gets compiler
coverage. The cost for this is eight bytes.

This patch updates/fixes all spin_unlock_wait() implementations.
The update is in semantics; where it previously was only a control
dependency, we now upgrade to a full load-acquire to match the
store-release from the spin_unlock() we waited on. This ensures that
when spin_unlock_wait() returns, we're guaranteed to observe the full
critical section we waited on.
This fixes a number of spin_unlock_wait() users that (not
unreasonably) rely on this.
I also fixed a number of ticket lock versions to only wait on the
current lock holder, instead of for a full unlock, as this is
sufficient.
Furthermore; again for ticket locks; I added an smp_rmb() in between
the initial ticket load and the spin loop testing the current value
because I could not convince myself the address dependency is
sufficient, esp. if the loads are of different sizes.
I'm more than happy to remove this smp_rmb() again if people are
certain the address dependency does indeed work as expected.
Note: PPC32 will be fixed independently

We have some inline assemblies where the extable entry points to a
label at the end of an inline assembly which is not followed by an
instruction.
On the other hand we have also inline assemblies where the extable
entry points to the first instruction of an inline assembly.
If a first type inline asm (extable point to empty label at the end)
would be directly followed by a second type inline asm (extable points
to first instruction) then we would have two different extable entries
that point to the same instruction but would have a different target
address.
This can lead to quite random behaviour, depending on sorting order.
I verified that we currently do not have such collisions within the
kernel. However to avoid such subtle bugs add a couple of nop
instructions to those inline assemblies which contain an extable that
points to an empty label.

On s390 __ro_after_init is currently mapped to __read_mostly which
means that data marked as __ro_after_init will not be protected.
Reason for this is that the common code __ro_after_init implementation
is x86 centric: the ro_after_init data section was added to rodata,
since x86 enables write protection to kernel text and rodata very
late. On s390 we have write protection for these sections enabled with
the initial page tables. So adding the ro_after_init data section to
rodata does not work on s390.
In order to make __ro_after_init work properly on s390 move the
ro_after_init data, right behind rodata. Unlike the rodata section it
will be marked read-only later after all init calls happened.
This s390 specific implementation adds new __start_ro_after_init and
__end_ro_after_init labels. Everything in between will be marked
read-only after the init calls happened. In addition to the
__ro_after_init data move also the exception table there, since from a
practical point of view it fits the __ro_after_init requirements.

ptep_flush_lazy and pmdp_flush_lazy use mm->context.attach_count to
decide between a lazy TLB flush vs an immediate TLB flush. The field
contains two 16-bit counters, the number of CPUs that have the mm
attached and can create TLB entries for it and the number of CPUs in
the middle of a page table update.
The __tlb_flush_asce, ptep_flush_direct and pmdp_flush_direct functions
use the attach counter and a mask check with mm_cpumask(mm) to decide
between a local flush local of the current CPU and a global flush.
For all these functions the decision between lazy vs immediate and
local vs global TLB flush can be based on CPU masks. There are two
masks: the mm->context.cpu_attach_mask with the CPUs that are actively
using the mm, and the mm_cpumask(mm) with the CPUs that have used the
mm since the last full flush. The decision between lazy vs immediate
flush is based on the mm->context.cpu_attach_mask, to decide between
local vs global flush the mm_cpumask(mm) is used.
With this patch all checks will use the CPU masks, the old counter
mm->context.attach_count with its two 16-bit values is turned into a
single counter mm->context.flush_count that keeps track of the number
of CPUs with incomplete page table updates. The sole user of this
counter is finish_arch_post_lock_switch() which waits for the end of
all page table updates.

It is possible to specify a user offset for the TOD clock, e.g. +2 hours.
The TOD clock will carry this offset even if the clock is synchronized
with STP. This makes the time stamps acquired with get_sync_clock()
useless as another LPAR migth use a different TOD offset.
Use the PTFF instrution to get the TOD epoch difference and subtract
it from the TOD clock value to get a physical timestamp. As the epoch
difference contains the sync check delta as well the LPAR offset value
to the physical clock needs to be refreshed after each clock
synchronization.

Show the dynamic and static cpu mhz of each cpu. Since these values
are per cpu this requires a fundamental extension of the format of
/proc/cpuinfo.
Historically we had only a single line per cpu and a summary at the
top of the file. This format is hardly extendible if we want to add
more per cpu information.
Therefore this patch adds per cpu blocks at the end of /proc/cpuinfo:
cpu : 0
cpu Mhz dynamic : 5504
cpu Mhz static : 5504
cpu : 1
cpu Mhz dynamic : 5504
cpu Mhz static : 5504
cpu : 2
cpu Mhz dynamic : 5504
cpu Mhz static : 5504
cpu : 3
cpu Mhz dynamic : 5504
cpu Mhz static : 5504
Right now each block contains only the dynamic and static cpu mhz,
but it can be easily extended like on every other architecture.
This extension is supposed to be compatible with the old format.

Add statistics that show how memory is mapped within the kernel
identity mapping. This is more or less the same like git
commit ce0c0e50f94e ("x86, generic: CPA add statistics about state
of direct mapping v4") for x86.
I also intentionally copied the lower case "k" within DirectMap4k vs
the upper case "M" and "G" within the two other lines. Let's have
consistent inconsistencies across architectures.
The output of /proc/meminfo now contains these additional lines:
DirectMap4k: 2048 kB
DirectMap1M: 3991552 kB
DirectMap2G: 4194304 kB
The implementation on s390 is lockless unlike the x86 version, since I
assume changes to the kernel mapping are a very rare event. Therefore
it really doesn't matter if these statistics could potentially be
inconsistent if read while kernel pages tables are being changed.

set_memory_ro() and set_memory_rw() currently only work on 4k
mappings, which is good enough for module code aka the vmalloc area.
However we stumbled already twice into the need to make this also work
on larger mappings:
- the ro after init patch set
- the crash kernel resize code
Therefore this patch implements automatic kernel page table splitting
if e.g. set_memory_ro() would be called on parts of a 2G mapping.
This works quite the same as the x86 code, but is much simpler.
In order to make this work and to be architecturally compliant we now
always use the csp, cspg or crdte instructions to replace valid page
table entries. This means that set_memory_ro() and set_memory_rw()
will be much more expensive than before. In order to avoid huge
latencies the code contains a couple of cond_resched() calls.
The current code only splits page tables, but does not merge them if
it would be possible. The reason for this is that currently there is
no real life scenarion where this would really happen. All current use
cases that I know of only change access rights once during the life
time. If that should change we can still implement kernel page table
merging at a later time.

Make pmd_wrprotect() and pmd_mkwrite() available independently from
CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE and CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE so these can be
used on the kernel mapping.
Also introduce a couple of pud helper functions, namely pud_pfn(),
pud_wrprotect(), pud_mkwrite(), pud_mkdirty() and pud_mkclean()
which only work on the kernel mapping.

Instead of open-coded SEGMENT_KERNEL and REGION3_KERNEL assignments use
defines. Also to make e.g. pmd_wrprotect() work on the kernel mapping
a couple more flags must be set. Therefore add the missing flags also.
In order to make everything symmetrical this patch also adds software
dirty, young, read and write bits for region 3 table entries.

The rwsem-xadd count has been converted to an atomic variable and the
rwsem code now directly uses atomic_long_add() and
atomic_long_add_return(), so we can remove the arch implementations of
rwsem_atomic_add() and rwsem_atomic_update().

I've just discovered that the useful-sounding has_transparent_hugepage()
is actually an architecture-dependent minefield: on some arches it only
builds if CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=y, on others it's also there when
not, but on some of those (arm and arm64) it then gives the wrong
answer; and on mips alone it's marked __init, which would crash if
called later (but so far it has not been called later).
Straighten this out: make it available to all configs, with a sensible
default in asm-generic/pgtable.h, removing its definitions from those
arches (arc, arm, arm64, sparc, tile) which are served by the default,
adding #define has_transparent_hugepage has_transparent_hugepage to
those (mips, powerpc, s390, x86) which need to override the default at
runtime, and removing the __init from mips (but maybe that kind of code
should be avoided after init: set a static variable the first time it's
called).

"There are a few changes in this pull request touching things
outside KVM, but they should all carry the necessary acks and it
made the merge process much easier to do it this way."
though actually the irqchip maintainers' acks didn't make it into the

on s390 we disabled the halt polling with commit 920552b213e3
("KVM: disable halt_poll_ns as default for s390x"), as floating
interrupts would let all CPUs have a successful poll, resulting
in much higher CPU usage (on otherwise idle systems).
With the improved selection of polls we can now retry halt polling.
Performance measurements with different choices like 25,50,80,100,200
microseconds showed that 80 microseconds seems to improve several cases
without increasing the CPU costs too much. Higher values would improve
the performance even more but increased the cpu time as well.
So let's start small and use this value of 80 microseconds on s390 until
we have a better understanding of cost/benefit of higher values.
