The nmi parameter indicated if we could do wakeups from the current
context, if not, we would set some state and self-IPI and let the
resulting interrupt do the wakeup.
For the various event classes:
- hardware: nmi=0; PMI is in fact an NMI or we run irq_work_run from
the PMI-tail (ARM etc.)
- tracepoint: nmi=0; since tracepoint could be from NMI context.
- software: nmi=[0,1]; some, like the schedule thing cannot
perform wakeups, and hence need 0.
As one can see, there is very little nmi=1 usage, and the down-side of
not using it is that on some platforms some software events can have a
jiffy delay in wakeup (when arch_irq_work_raise isn't implemented).
The up-side however is that we can remove the nmi parameter and save a
bunch of conditionals in fast paths.

If e.g. copy_from_user() generates a page fault and the kernel runs
into an OOM situation the system might lock up.
If the OOM killer sends a SIG_KILL to the current process it can't
handle it since it is stuck in a copy_from_user() - page fault loop.
Fix this by adding the same fix as other architectures have.

Interrupt sources like pfault, sclp, dasd_diag and virtio all use the
service signal external interrupt subclass mask in control register 0
to enable and disable the corresponding interrupt.
Because no reference counting is implemented each subsystem thinks it
is the only user of subclass and sets and clears the bit like it wants.
This leads to case that unloading the dasd diag module under z/VM
causes both sclp and pfault interrupts to be masked. The result will
be locked up system sooner or later.
Fix this by introducing a new way to set (register) and clear
(unregister) the service signal subclass mask bit in cr0.

On cpu hot remove a PFAULT CANCEL command is sent to the hypervisor
which in turn will cancel all outstanding pfault requests that have
been issued on that cpu (the same happens with a SIGP cpu reset).
The result is that we end up with uninterruptible processes where
the interrupt that would wake up these processes never arrives.
In order to solve this all processes which wait for a pfault
completion interrupt get woken up after a cpu hot remove. The worst
case that could happen is that they fault again and in turn need to
wait again.

The noexec support on s390 does not rely on a bit in the page table
entry but utilizes the secondary space mode to distinguish between
memory accesses for instructions vs. data. The noexec code relies
on the assumption that the cpu will always use the secondary space
page table for data accesses while it is running in the secondary
space mode. Up to the z9-109 class machines this has been the case.
Unfortunately this is not true anymore with z10 and later machines.
The load-relative-long instructions lrl, lgrl and lgfrl access the
memory operand using the same addressing-space mode that has been
used to fetch the instruction.
This breaks the noexec mode for all user space binaries compiled
with march=z10 or later. The only option is to remove the current
noexec support.

pfault, dasd diag and virtio all use the same external interrupt number.
The respective interrupt handlers decide by the subcode if they are

Counting is currently done before looking at the subcode which means
each handler counts an interrupt even if it is not handling it.

f6649a7e "[S390] cleanup lowcore access from external interrupts" changed
handling of external interrupts. Instead of letting the external interrupt
handlers accessing the per cpu lowcore the entry code of the kernel reads
already all fields that are necessary and passes them to the handlers.
The pfault interrupt handler was incorrectly converted. It tries to
dereference a value which used to be a pointer to a lowcore field. After
the conversion however it is not anymore the pointer to the field but its
content. So instead of a dereference only a cast is needed to get the
task pointer that caused the pfault.
Fixes a NULL pointer dereference and a subsequent kernel crash:
Unable to handle kernel pointer dereference at virtual kernel address (null)

/proc/sys/debug/exception-trace

That way we keep backwards compatibilty but also support the same

2) switch_amode == 1 && s390_noexec == 0
3) switch_amode == 1 && s390_noexec == 1
They get replaced by
1) user_mode == HOME_SPACE_MODE
2) user_mode == PRIMARY_SPACE_MODE
3) user_mode == SECONDARY_SPACE_MODE

Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events!
In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its
initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is
becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging,
monitoring, analysis facility.
Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem
'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending
code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and
less appropriate.
All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance
events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables
and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion)
The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes
it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well.
Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and
suggested a rename.
User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch
should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to
keep the size down.)
This patch has been generated via the following script:
FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config')
sed -i \
-e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \
-e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \
-e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \
-e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \
-e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \
-e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \
$FILES
for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do
M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g')
mv $N $M
done
FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*)
sed -i \
-e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \
-e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \
-e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \
-e 's/counter/event/g' \
-e 's/Counter/Event/g' \
$FILES
... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be
used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts
a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this
change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches
is the smallest: the end of the merge window.
Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some
stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch.
( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal
with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit
over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but
in case there's something left where 'counter' would be
better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis
instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. )

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().
This way, we kill only the cgroup if the cgroup's init has a
bug rather than force a kernel panic.

[ Still apparently needs some ARM and PPC loving - Linus ]

This patch moves the die notifier handling to common code. Previous
various architectures had exactly the same code for it. Note that the new
code is compiled unconditionally, this should be understood as an appel to
the other architecture maintainer to implement support for it aswell (aka
sprinkling a notify_die or two in the proper place)
arm had a notifiy_die that did something totally different, I renamed it to
arm_notify_die as part of the patch and made it static to the file it's
declared and used at. avr32 used to pass slightly less information through
this interface and I brought it into line with the other architectures.

And here's a port of the powerpc patch to get rid of the notifier
chain completely to s390. It's ontop of Martins patch as that one
is in mainline already.

Simplify the signal_return function that checks for the two special
system calls sigreturn and rt_sigreturn. No need to do a page table
walk, a call to copy_from_user while disabled page faults will work
as well.

The minor fault path has grown a lot in terms of cycles. In particular
the kprobes hook is very costly. Optimize the path to save a couple of
cycles. If kprobes is enabled more than 300 cycles can be avoided if
kprobes_running() is false.

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.

Since then, m32r grabbed two copies.
Leave s390 copy because of important absence of CONFIG_VT, but remove
references to non-existent timerlist_lock. ia64 also loses timerlist_lock.
