As Eric said,
"what we need to do is move the variable vmcoreinfo_note out of the
kernel's .bss section. And modify the code to regenerate and keep this
information in something like the control page.
Definitely something like this needs a page all to itself, and ideally
far away from any other kernel data structures. I clearly was not
watching closely the data someone decided to keep this silly thing in
the kernel's .bss section."
This patch allocates extra pages for these vmcoreinfo_XXX variables, one
advantage is that it enhances some safety of vmcoreinfo, because
vmcoreinfo now is kept far away from other kernel data structures.

Pull SMP hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This update is primarily a cleanup of the CPU hotplug locking code.
The hotplug locking mechanism is an open coded RWSEM, which allows
recursive locking. The main problem with that is the recursive nature
as it evades the full lockdep coverage and hides potential deadlocks.
The rework replaces the open coded RWSEM with a percpu RWSEM and
establishes full lockdep coverage that way.
The bulk of the changes fix up recursive locking issues and address
the now fully reported potential deadlocks all over the place. Some of
these deadlocks have been observed in the RT tree, but on mainline the
probability was low enough to hide them away."

"s390,kvm: provide plumbing for machines checks when running guests"
This provides the basic plumbing for handling machine checks when
running guests
When a machine check happens in the guest, related mcck info (mcic,
external damage code, ...) is stored in the vcpu's lowcore on the host.
Then the machine check handler's low-level part is executed, followed
by the high-level part.
If the high-level part's execution is interrupted by a new machine check
happening on the same vcpu on the host, the mcck info in the lowcore is
overwritten with the new machine check's data.
If the high-level part's execution is scheduled to a different cpu,
the mcck info in the lowcore is uncertain.
Therefore, for both cases, the further reinjection to the guest will use
the wrong data.
Let's backup the mcck info in the lowcore to the sie page
for further reinjection, so that the right data will be used.
Add new member into struct sie_page to store related machine check's
info of mcic, failing storage address and external damage code.

Add the logic to check if the machine check happens when the guest is
running. If yes, set the exit reason -EINTR in the machine check's
interrupt handler. Refactor s390_do_machine_check to avoid panicing
the host for some kinds of machine checks which happen
when guest is running.
Reinject the instruction processing damage's machine checks including
Delayed Access Exception instead of damaging the host if it happens
in the guest because it could be caused by improper update on TLB entry
or other software case and impacts the guest only.

7afbeb6df2 ("s390/ipl: always use load normal for CCW-type re-IPL")
0f7451ff3a ("s390/ipl: use load normal for LPAR re-ipl")
The two commits did not take into account that behavior of standby
memory changes fundamentally if the re-IPL method is changed from
Load Clear to Load Normal.
In case of the old re-IPL clear method all memory that was initially
in standby state will be put into standby state again within the
re-IPL process. Or in other words: memory that was brought online
before a re-IPL will be offline again after a reboot.
Given that we use different re-IPL methods depending on the hypervisor
and CCW-type vs SCSI re-IPL it is not easy to tell in advance when and
why memory will stay online or will be offline after a re-IPL.
This does also have other side effects, since memory that is online
from the beginning will be in ZONE_NORMAL by default vs ZONE_MOVABLE
for memory that is offline.
Therefore, before the change, a user could online and offline memory
easily since standby memory was always in ZONE_NORMAL. After the
change, and a re-IPL, this depended on which memory parts were online
before the re-IPL.
From a usability point of view the current behavior is more than
suboptimal. Therefore revert these changes until we have a better
solution and get back to a consistent behavior. The bad thing about
this is that the time required for a re-IPL will be significantly
increased for configurations with several 100GB or 1TB of memory.

The system control vm.alloc_pgste is used to control the size of the
page tables, either 2K or 4K. The idea is that a KVM host sets the
vm.alloc_pgste control to 1 which causes *all* new processes to run
with 4K page tables. For a non-kvm system the control should stay off
to save on memory used for page tables.
Trouble is that distributions choose to set the control globally to
be able to run KVM guests. This wastes memory on non-KVM systems.
Introduce the PT_S390_PGSTE ELF segment type to "mark" the qemu
executable with it. All executables with this (empty) segment in
its ELF phdr array will be started with 4K page tables. Any executable
without PT_S390_PGSTE will run with the default 2K page tables.
This removes the need to set vm.alloc_pgste=1 for a KVM host and
minimizes the waste of memory for page tables.

Rename a couple of the struct psw_bits members so it is more obvious
for what they are good. Initially I thought using the single character
names from the PoP would be sufficient and obvious, but admittedly
that is not true.
The current implementation is not easy to use, if one has to look into
the source file to figure out which member represents the 'per' bit
(which is the 'r' member).
Therefore rename the members to sane names that are identical to the
uapi psw mask defines:
r -> per
i -> io
e -> ext
t -> dat
m -> mcheck
w -> wait
p -> pstate

The address space enums that must be used when modifying the address
space part of a psw with the psw_bits() macro can easily be confused
with the psw defines that are used to mask and compare directly the
mask part of a psw.
We have e.g. PSW_AS_PRIMARY vs PSW_ASC_PRIMARY.
To avoid confusion rename the PSW_AS_* enums to PSW_BITS_AS_*.
In addition also rename the PSW_AMODE_* enums, so they also follow the

Remove raw stack dumps that are printed before call traces in case of
a warning, or the 'l' sysrq trigger (show a stack backtrace for all
active CPUs).
Besides that a raw stack dump should not be shown for the 'l' sysrq
trigger the value of the dump is close to zero. That's also why we
don't print it in case of a panic since ages anymore. That this is
still printed on warnings is just a leftover. So get rid of this
completely.

Command 'perf list pmu' displays events which contain

name, for example:

This is not correct, the invalid string should not be
displayed at all.
It is caused by an obsolete term in the
sysfs attribute file for each s390 CPUMF counter event.
Reading from the sysfs file also displays the event
name.
Fix this by omitting the event name. This patch makes
s390 CPUMF sysfs files consistent with other plattforms.
This is an interface change between user and kernel
but does not break anything. Reading from a counter event
sysfs file should only list terms mentioned in the

The perf tool assumes that kernel symbols are never present at address
zero. In fact it assumes if functions that map symbols to addresses
return zero, that the symbol was not found.
Given that s390's _text symbol historically is located at address zero
this yields at least a couple of false errors and warnings in one of
perf's test cases about not present symbols ("perf test 1").
To fix this simply move the _text symbol to address 0x200, just behind
the initial psw and channel program located at the beginning of the
kernel image. This is now hard coded within the linker script.
I tried a nicer solution which moves the initial psw and channel
program into an own section. However that would move the symbols
within the "real" head.text section to different addresses, since the
".org" statements within head.S are relative to the head.text
section. If there is a new section in front, everything else will be
moved. Alternatively I could have adjusted all ".org" statements. But
this current solution seems to be the easiest one, since nobody really
cares where the _text symbol is actually located.

Bit searching functions accept "unsigned long" indices but
"nr_cpumask_bits" is "int" which is signed, so inevitable sign
extensions occur on x86_64. Those MOVSX are #1 MOVSX bloat by number of
uses across whole kernel.
Change "nr_cpumask_bits" to unsigned, this number can't be negative
after all. It allows to do implicit zero-extension on x86_64 without
MOVSX.
Change signed comparisons into unsigned comparisons where necessary.
Other uses looks fine because it is either argument passed to a function
or comparison is already unsigned.

Pull livepatch updates from Jiri Kosina:
- a per-task consistency model is being added for architectures that
support reliable stack dumping (extending this, currently rather
trivial set, is currently in the works).
This extends the nature of the types of patches that can be applied
by live patching infrastructure. The code stems from the design
proposal made [1] back in November 2014. It's a hybrid of SUSE's
kGraft and RH's kpatch, combining advantages of both: it uses
kGraft's per-task consistency and syscall barrier switching combined
with kpatch's stack trace switching. There are also a number of
fallback options which make it quite flexible.

Miroslav Benes and Petr Mladek

In preparation for making the clockevents core NTP correction aware,
all clockevent device drivers must set ->min_delta_ticks and
->max_delta_ticks rather than ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns: a
clockevent device's rate is going to change dynamically and thus, the
ratio of ns to ticks ceases to stay invariant.
Currently, the s390's CPU timer clockevent device is initialized as
follows:
cd->min_delta_ns = 1;
cd->max_delta_ns = LONG_MAX;
Note that the device's time to cycle conversion factor, i.e.
cd->mult / (2^cd->shift), is approx. equal to 4.
Hence, this would translate to
cd->min_delta_ticks = 4;
cd->max_delta_ticks = 4 * LONG_MAX;
However, a minimum value of 1ns is in the range of noise anyway and the
clockevent core will take care of this by increasing it to 1us or so.
Furthermore, 4*LONG_MAX would overflow the unsigned long argument the
clockevent devices gets programmed with.
Thus, initialize ->min_delta_ticks with 1 and ->max_delta_ticks with
ULONG_MAX.
This patch alone doesn't introduce any change in functionality as the
clockevents core still looks exclusively at the (untouched) ->min_delta_ns
and ->max_delta_ns. As soon as this has changed, a followup patch will
purge the initialization of ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns from this
driver.

There are three different code levels in regard to the identification
of guest samples. They differ in the way the LPP instruction is used.
1) Old kernels without the LPP instruction. The guest program parameter
is always zero.
2) Newer kernels load the process pid into the program parameter with LPP.
The guest program parameter is non-zero if the guest executes in a
process != idle.
3) The latest kernels load ((1UL << 31) | pid) with LPP to make the value
non-zero even for the idle task. The guest program parameter is non-zero
if the guest is running.
All kernels load the process pid to CR4 on context switch. The CPU sampling
code uses the value in CR4 to decide between guest and host samples in case
the guest program parameter is zero. The three cases:
1) CR4==pid, gpp==0
2) CR4==pid, gpp==pid
3) CR4==pid, gpp==((1UL << 31) | pid)
The load-control instruction to load the pid into CR4 is expensive and the
goal is to remove it. To distinguish the host CR4 from the guest pid for
the idle process the maximum value 0xffff for the PASN is used.
This adds a fourth case for a guest OS with an updated kernel:
4) CR4==0xffff, gpp=((1UL << 31) | pid)
The host kernel will have CR4==0xffff and will use (gpp!=0 || CR4!==0xffff)
to identify guest samples. This works nicely with all 4 cases, the only
possible issue would be a guest with an old kernel (gpp==0) and a process
pid of 0xffff. Well, don't do that..
