Specifying the 'novx' kernel parameter always results in a warning: Malformed early option 'novx' The reason for this is that the novx early parameter handling function always returns a non-zero value which means that an error occurred. Fix this and return the correct zero value instead. Signed-off-by:

Since commit caf7df12 ("block: remove the errors field from struct request") rq->errors can't be (mis)used by block device drivers to store the error condition for usage during async completion. Because of that I simply used async completion only for the non-error paths. This patch places the error within the private data of struct request and uses async completion for all paths again.

Return -ENOTTY for unknown ioctl commands instead of -ENOIOCTLCMD. This isn't that much of difference, since common code will translate -ENOIOCTLCMD to -ENOTTY anyway, but this way it seems to be more obvious what is happening (at least to me). Signed-off-by:

If memory is fragmented it is unlikely that large order memory allocations succeed. This has been an issue with the vmcp device driver since a long time, since it requires large physical contiguous memory ares for large responses. To hopefully resolve this issue make use of the contiguous memory allocator (cma). This patch adds a vmcp specific vmcp cma area with a default size of 4MB. The size can be changed either via the VMCP_CMA_SIZE config option at compile time or with the "vmcp_cma" kernel parameter (e.g. "vmcp_cma=16m"). For any vmcp response buffers larger than 16k memory from the cma area will be allocated. If such an allocation fails, there is a fallback to the buddy allocator. Signed-off-by:

According to the CP Programming Services manual Diagnose Code 8 "Virtual Console Function" can be used in all addressing modes. Also the input and output buffers do not have a limitation which specifies they need to be below the 2GB line. This is true at least since z/VM 5.4. Therefore remove the sam31/64 instructions and allow for simple GFP_KERNEL allocations. This makes it easier to allocate a 1MB page if the user requested such a large return buffer. Signed-off-by:

The vmcp device driver should return -EFAULT if get_user() fails, due to an invalid user space address. In addition the buffer size value from user space is passed unchecked to get_order(). The return value of get_order(0) undefined. Therefore explicitly test for zero before calling get_order() and also return -EFAULT if get_user() fails. Signed-off-by:

Memory blocks that contain areas for the contiguous memory allocator (cma) should not be allowed to go offline. Otherwise this would render cma completely useless. This might make sense on other architectures where memory might be taken offline due to hardware errors, but not on architectures which support memory hotplug for load balancing. Signed-off-by:

Add all the missing little helper functions like virt_to_pfn(), phys_to_page(), etc. While we had a couple of these helper functions like e.g. page_to_phys() the other functions were missing, which is quite annoying if one is looking for exactly such a function. Therefore finally add all those little helper functions. Signed-off-by:

clang doesn't like s390 specific inline assembler constraints. These are present in our arch specific uapi/asm/swab.h which again is required by some ebpf test cases. For current compiler versions the generic swab.h already makes use of gcc's builtin functions. Therefore we can simply remove our own header file and use the generic one. This will generate worse code if used with compilers before gcc 4.8, which has no __builtin_bswap16(); or before gcc v4.4, which has no __builtin_bswap[32|64](). For these cases a C implementation fallback would be used which generates more code, but is still correct (170KB extra code for gcc 4.3 with performance_defconfig). However given that we need (and want) to get rid of the inline assemblies anyway in order to be able to use clang, the above is just a minor drawback if old gcc compilers are used. With current compilers there is close to zero difference, except for three btrfs bit functions which generate more out-of-line code. The generated code looks still correct and also uses the s390 specific byteswap instructions. Reported-and-tested-by:

The z14 machine introduces new mode of the next-instruction-access-intent NIAI instruction. With NIAI-8 it is possible to pin a cache-line on a CPU for a small amount of time, NIAI-7 releases the cache-line again. Finally NIAI-4 can be used to prevent the CPU to speculatively access memory beyond the compare-and-swap instruction to get the lock. Use these instruction in the spinlock code. Signed-off-by: -

The TOD epoch extension adds 8 epoch bits to the TOD clock to provide a continuous clock after 2042/09/17. The store-clock-extended (STCKE) instruction will store the epoch index in the first byte of the 16 bytes stored by the instruction. The read_boot_clock64 and the read_presistent_clock64 functions need to take the additional bits into account to give the correct result after 2042/09/17. The clock-comparator register will stay 64 bit wide. The comparison of the clock-comparator with the TOD clock is limited to bytes 1 to 8 of the extended TOD format. To deal with the overflow problem due to an epoch change the clock-comparator sign control in CR0 can be used to switch the comparison of the 64-bit TOD clock with the clock-comparator to a signed comparison. The decision between the signed vs. unsigned clock-comparator comparisons is done at boot time. Only if the TOD clock is in the second half of a 142 year epoch the signed comparison is used. This solves the epoch overflow issue as long as the machine is booted at least once in an epoch. Signed-off-by: -

Add various defines like e.g. _REGION1_SHIFT to reflect the hardware mmu. We have quite a bit code that does not make use of the Linux memory management primitives but directly modifies page, segment and region values. Most of this is open-coded like e.g. "1UL << 53". In order to clean this up introduce a couple of new defines. The existing Linux memory management defines are changed, so the mapping to the hardware implementation is reflected. Reviewed-by:
