s390/Documentation: improve sort command for trace buffer

2016-06-13T13:58:23+00:00

When s390 traces with hex_ascii or sprintf view are extracted and sorted, use the sort option -s (stable) to avoid multiple lines with the same time stamp being sorted using the rest of the line as secondary key. Signed-off-by: Thomas Richter Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

2015-11-27T08:24:12+00:00

2015-07-29T09:02:35+00:00

2015-05-18T16:14:17+00:00

s390/docs: Remove section about script debugging from Debugging390.txt

2015-01-15T10:11:14+00:00

The section about debugging scripting languages has nothing to do with s390 (and the example is even apparently taken from a i586 host instead), so let's remove this chapter from the file. Signed-off-by: Thomas Huth Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

s390/docs: Break long lines in Debugging390.txt

2015-01-15T10:11:12+00:00

There are a lot of lines that are longer than 80 columns in this file, rendering it hard to read in a terminal window. This patch fixes most of these long lines, and while we're at it, also makes some sentences more readable, e.g. by replacing "&" with "and", adding proper punctuation, removing superfluous clauses, etc. Signed-off-by: Thomas Huth Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

s390/docs: Remove sections that are not related to s390

2014-11-18T17:22:59+00:00

Information how to use the GCC pre-processor, objdump, strace, top, etc. are generic and not specific to the S390 architecture, so we do not need this information in Debugging390.txt Signed-off-by: Thomas Huth Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

s390/docs: Fix the documentation of the address spaces

2014-11-18T17:22:57+00:00

The information about the address spaces was completely outdated, since the usage of the address spaces changed quite a bit since the early days. This patch now updates the information about the usage of the address spaces, mostly by using the description from Heiko's patch "rework uaccess code - fix locking issues" (457f2180951cdcbfb4657ddcc83b486e93497f56).
