Remove the file name from the comment at top of many files. In most
cases the file name was wrong anyway, so it's rather pointless.
Also unify the IBM copyright statement. We did have a lot of sightly
different statements and wanted to change them one after another
whenever a file gets touched. However that never happened. Instead
people start to take the old/"wrong" statements to use as a template
for new files.
So unify all of them in one go.

Currently the buffer for diagnose data is allocated in the open function
of the debugfs file and is released in the close function. This has the
drawback that a user (root) can pin that memory by not closing the file.
This patch moves the buffer allocation to the read function. The buffer is
automatically released after the buffer is copied to userspace.

In order to access the data of the hypfs diagnose calls from user
space also in binary form, this patch adds two new attributes in
debugfs:
* z/VM: s390_hypfs/d2fc_bin
* LPAR: s390_hypfs/d204_bin

This is an extension of the already existing hypfs for LPAR (DIAG 204).
Data returned by DIAG 2fc is exported using the s390_hypfs when Linux
is running under z/VM. Information about cpus and memory is provided.
Data is put into different virtual files which can be accessed from user
space. All values are represented as ASCII strings

On zSeries machines there exists an interface which allows the operating
system to retrieve LPAR hypervisor accounting data. For example, it is
possible to get usage data for physical and virtual cpus. In order to
provide this information to user space programs, I implemented a new
virtual Linux file system named 's390_hypfs' using the Linux 2.6 libfs
framework. The name 's390_hypfs' stands for 'S390 Hypervisor Filesystem'.
All the accounting information is put into different virtual files which
can be accessed from user space. All data is represented as ASCII strings.
When the file system is mounted the accounting information is retrieved and
a file system tree is created with the attribute files containing the cpu
information. The content of the files remains unchanged until a new update
is made. An update can be triggered from user space through writing
'something' into a special purpose update file.
We create the following directory structure:
<mount-point>/
update
cpus/
<cpu-id>
type
mgmtime
<cpu-id>
...
hyp/
type
systems/
<lpar-name>
cpus/
<cpu-id>
type
mgmtime
cputime
onlinetime
<cpu-id>
...
<lpar-name>
cpus/
...
- update: File to trigger update
- cpus/: Directory for all physical cpus
- cpus/<cpu-id>/: Directory for one physical cpu.
- cpus/<cpu-id>/type: Type name of physical zSeries cpu.
- cpus/<cpu-id>/mgmtime: Physical-LPAR-management time in microseconds.
- hyp/: Directory for hypervisor information
- hyp/type: Typ of hypervisor (currently only 'LPAR Hypervisor')
- systems/: Directory for all LPARs
- systems/<lpar-name>/: Directory for one LPAR.
- systems/<lpar-name>/cpus/<cpu-id>/: Directory for the virtual cpus
- systems/<lpar-name>/cpus/<cpu-id>/type: Typ of cpu.
- systems/<lpar-name>/cpus/<cpu-id>/mgmtime:
Accumulated number of microseconds during which a physical
CPU was assigned to the logical cpu and the cpu time was
consumed by the hypervisor and was not provided to
the LPAR (LPAR overhead).
- systems/<lpar-name>/cpus/<cpu-id>/cputime:
Accumulated number of microseconds during which a physical CPU
was assigned to the logical cpu and the cpu time was consumed
by the LPAR.
- systems/<lpar-name>/cpus/<cpu-id>/onlinetime:
Accumulated number of microseconds during which the logical CPU
has been online.
As mount point for the filesystem /sys/hypervisor/s390 is created.
The update process is triggered when writing 'something' into the
'update' file at the top level hypfs directory. You can do this e.g.
with 'echo 1 > update'. During the update the whole directory structure
is deleted and built up again.
