* [S390] correct address of _stext with CONFIG_SHARED_KERNEL=yMartin Schwidefsky2010-05-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | As of git commit 1844c9bc0b2fed3023551c1affe033ab38e90b9a head64.S/head31.S are not included in head.S anymore but build as an extra object. This breaks shared kernel support because the .org statement in head64.S/head31.S for CONFIG_SHARED_KERNEL=y will have a different effect. The end address of the head.text section in head.o will be added to the .org value, to compensate for this subtract 0x11000 to get the required value of 0x100000 again.

* [S390] add support for compressed kernelsMartin Schwidefsky2010-02-261-4/+12
| | | | | | | | 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. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
* [S390] Initialize __LC_THREAD_INFO early.Heiko Carstens2009-09-111-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "lockdep: Fix backtraces" reveales a bug in early setup code: when lockdep tries to save a stack backtrace before setup_arch has been called the lowcore pointer for the current thread info pointer isn't initialized yet. However our save stack backtrace code relies on it. If the pointer isn't initialized the saved backtrace will have zero entries. lockdep however relies (correctly) on the fact that that cannot happen. A write access to some random memory region is the result. Fix this by initializing the thread info pointer early.

* [S390] Remove initial kernel stack backchain initialization.Heiko Carstens2008-12-251-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | Early init code clears the backchain of the initial kernel stack frame. This is not necessary since it is pre initialized with zeros. Plus it was broken on 64 bit since it cleared only four of eight bytes. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
* [S390] Add processor type march=z10 and a processor type safety check.Martin Schwidefsky2008-12-251-24/+3
| | | | | | | | This patch adds the code generation option for IBM System z10 and adds a check in head[31,64].S to prevents the execution of a kernel compiled for a new processor type on an old machine. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
* [S390] Convert machine feature detection code to C.Heiko Carstens2008-04-301-61/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> From: Carsten Otte <cotte@de.ibm.com> This lets us use defines for the magic bits in machine flags instead of using plain numbers all over the place. In addition on newer machines features/facilities are indicated by the result of the stfl instruction. So we use these bits instead of trying to execute new instructions and check wether we get an exception or not. Also the mvpg instruction is always available when in zArch mode, whereas the idte instruction is only available in zArch mode. This results in some minor optimizations.

* [S390] Fixed handling of access register mode faults.Gerald Schaefer2007-03-051-3/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replaced check_user_space() + __check_access_register with the new check_space(). The old functions made wrong assumptions about kernel and user space when the kernel and user address spaces are switched (kernel in home space, user in primary/secondary space). Secondly the user process can switch to the accress register mode if it is running in primary or secondary mode. In addition it can load an arbitrary value to the access registers. If any other value than 0 for primary space or 1 for secondary space is loaded and memory is accessed using the base register related to the access register, the program should be terminated with a SIGSEGV. To achieve that the DUALD pointer in the DUCT and the PSALD pointer in the PASTE need to point to an array of 8 invalid access-list entries to get a ALEN-translation exception if an invalid alet is used.

* [S390] nss: Free unused memory in kernel image.Heiko Carstens2007-02-211-13/+2
| | | | | | | | | | With CONFIG_SHARED_KERNEL the kernel text segment that might be in a read only memory sections starts at 1MB. Memory between 0x12000 and 0x100000 is unused then. Free this, so we have appr. an extra MB of memory available. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
* [S390] Convert memory detection into C code.Heiko Carstens2007-02-051-161/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hopefully this will make it more maintainable and less error prone. Code makes use of search_exception_tables(). Since it calls this function before the kernel exeception table is sorted, there is an early call to sort_main_extable(). This way it's easy to use the already present infrastructure of fixup sections. Also this would allows to easily convert the rest of head[31|64].S into C code.

* [S390] Memory detection fixes.Heiko Carstens2006-12-041-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | VMALLOC_END on 31bit should be 0x8000000UL instead of 0x7fffffffL. The page mask which is used to make sure memory_end is on 4MB/2MB boundary is wrong and not needed. Therefore remove it. Make sure a vmalloc area does also exist and work on (future) machines with 4TB and more memory.

* [S390] Misaligned wait PSW at memory detection.Heiko Carstens2006-12-041-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | If the memory detection code would ever reach the point where it would load the wait psw, it would generate a specification exception and the system would crash at ipl time. This is because of a misaligned wait psw. It needs to be on a double word boundary instead of a word boundary.

* [S390] initrd vs. bootmem bitmap.Heiko Carstens2006-09-201-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | Move initrd if the bitmap of the bootmem allocator would overwrite it. In addition this patch sets the default size and address of the initrd to 0. Therefore all boot loaders must set the initrd size and address correctly. This is especially relevant for ftp boot via HMC/SE, where this change requires a special patch file entry in the .ins file which sets these two values contained at address 0x10408 and 0x10410.
