* [S390] udelay: disable lockdep to avoid false positivesHeiko Carstens2009-07-071-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Our udelay implementation enables interrupts to receive a special timer interrupt regardless of the context it is called from. This might lead to false positive lockdep reports. Since lockdep isn't aware of the fact that only a single interrupt source is enabled it warns about possible deadlocks that in reality won't happen, like the one below. To fix this disable lockdep before enabling interrupts.

Using xip mappings w/o struct pages, this will result in -EFAULT returned by the (page table walk) user copy functions, even though there is valid memory.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The implementation of __div64_31 for G5 machines is broken. The comments in __div64_31 are correct, only the code does not do what the comments say. The part "If the remainder has overflown subtract base and increase the quotient" is only partially realized, the base is subtracted correctly but the quotient is only increased if the dividend had the last bit set. Using the correct instruction fixes the problem.

* [S390] nohz: Fix __udelay.Heiko Carstens2008-10-031-34/+54
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a regression that came with 934b2857cc576ae53c92a66e63fce7ddcfa74691 ("[S390] nohz/sclp: disable timer on synchronous waits."). If udelay() gets called from a disabled context it sets the clock comparator to a value where it expects the next interrupt. When the interrupt happens the clock comparator gets not reset and therefore the interrupt condition doesn't get cleared. The result is an endless timer interrupt loop. In addition this patch fixes also the following: rcutorture reveals that our __udelay implementation is still buggy, since it might schedule tasklets, but prevents their execution: NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 42 NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 02 NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 142 NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 02 To fix this we make sure that only the clock comparator interrupt is enabled when the enabled wait psw is loaded. Also no code gets called anymore which might schedule tasklets. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
* [S390] nohz/sclp: disable timer on synchronous waits.Heiko Carstens2008-08-011-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | sclp_sync_wait wait synchronously for an sclp interrupt and disables timer interrupts. However on the irq enter paths there is an extra check if a timer interrupt would be due and calls the timer callback. This would schedule softirqs in the wrong context. So introduce local_tick_enable/disable which prevents this. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | a0c1e9073ef7428a14309cba010633a6cd6719ea "futex: runtime enable pi and robust functionality" introduces a test wether futex in atomic stuff works or not. It does that by writing to address 0 of the kernel address space. This will crash on older machines where addressing mode switching is enabled but where the mvcos instruction is not available. Page table walking is done by hand and therefore the code tries to access current->mm which is NULL. Therefore add an extra check, so we survive the early test.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | is_init() is an ambiguous name for the pid==1 check. Split it into is_global_init() and is_container_init(). A cgroup init has it's tsk->pid == 1. A global init also has it's tsk->pid == 1 and it's active pid namespace is the init_pid_ns. But rather than check the active pid namespace, compare the task structure with 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper', which is initialized during boot to the /sbin/init process and never changes. Changelog: 2.6.22-rc4-mm2-pidns1: - Use 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper' to determine if a given task is the global init (/sbin/init) process. This would improve performance and remove dependence on the task_pid(). 2.6.21-mm2-pidns2: - [Sukadev Bhattiprolu] Changed is_container_init() calls in {powerpc, ppc,avr32}/traps.c for the _exception() call to is_global_init().

* [S390] ETR support.Martin Schwidefsky2007-02-051-14/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for clock synchronization to an external time reference (ETR). The external time reference sends an oscillator signal and a synchronization signal every 2^20 microseconds to keep the TOD clocks of all connected servers in sync. For availability two ETR units can be connected to a machine. If the clock deviates for more than the sync-check tolerance all cpus get a machine check that indicates that the clock is out of sync. For the lovely details how to get the clock back in sync see the code below. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
* [S390] noexec protectionGerald Schaefer2007-02-052-1/+372
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This provides a noexec protection on s390 hardware. Our hardware does not have any bits left in the pte for a hw noexec bit, so this is a different approach using shadow page tables and a special addressing mode that allows separate address spaces for code and data. As a special feature of our "secondary-space" addressing mode, separate page tables can be specified for the translation of data addresses (storage operands) and instruction addresses. The shadow page table is used for the instruction addresses and the standard page table for the data addresses. The shadow page table is linked to the standard page table by a pointer in page->lru.next of the struct page corresponding to the page that contains the standard page table (since page->private is not really private with the pte_lock and the page table pages are not in the LRU list). Depending on the software bits of a pte, it is either inserted into both page tables or just into the standard (data) page table. Pages of a vma that does not have the VM_EXEC bit set get mapped only in the data address space. Any try to execute code on such a page will cause a page translation exception. The standard reaction to this is a SIGSEGV with two exceptions: the two system call opcodes 0x0a77 (sys_sigreturn) and 0x0aad (sys_rt_sigreturn) are allowed. They are stored by the kernel to the signal stack frame. Unfortunately, the signal return mechanism cannot be modified to use an SA_RESTORER because the exception unwinding code depends on the system call opcode stored behind the signal stack frame. This feature requires that user space is executed in secondary-space mode and the kernel in home-space mode, which means that the addressing modes need to be switched and that the noexec protection only works for user space. After switching the addressing modes, we cannot use the mvcp/mvcs instructions anymore to copy between kernel and user space. A new mvcos instruction has been added to the z9 EC/BC hardware which allows to copy between arbitrary address spaces, but on older hardware the page tables need to be walked manually.

Currently they still rely on the increased preempt count, but do not rely on the disabled preemption, this might go away in the future. (NOTE: the extra barrier() in pagefault_disable might fix some holes on machines which have too many registers for their own good) [heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com: s390 fix] Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* [S390] __div64_32 for 31 bit.Martin Schwidefsky2006-09-282-0/+152
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The clocksource infrastructure introduced with commit ad596171ed635c51a9eef829187af100cbf8dcf7 broke 31 bit s390. The reason is that the do_div() primitive for 31 bit always had a restriction: it could only divide an unsigned 64 bit integer by an unsigned 31 bit integer. The clocksource code now uses do_div() with a base value that has the most significant bit set. The result is that clock->cycle_interval has a funny value which causes the linux time to jump around like mad. The solution is "obvious": implement a proper __div64_32 function for 31 bit s390.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the code tries up to spin_retry times to grab a lock using the cs instruction. The cs instruction has exclusive access to a memory region and therefore invalidates the appropiate cache line of all other cpus. If there is contention on a lock this leads to cache line trashing. This can be avoided if we first check wether a cs instruction is likely to succeed before the instruction gets actually executed.
