s390/unwind: introduce stack unwind API

2019-05-02T11:54:11+00:00

Rework the dump_trace() stack unwinder interface to support different unwinding algorithms. The new interface looks like this: struct unwind_state state; unwind_for_each_frame(&state, task, regs, start_stack) do_something(state.sp, state.ip, state.reliable); The unwind_bc.c file contains the implementation for the classic back-chain unwinder. One positive side effect of the new code is it now handles ftraced functions gracefully. It prints the real name of the return function instead of 'return_to_handler'.

KVM: s390: add gib_alert_irq_handler()

2019-02-05T13:29:23+00:00

The patch implements a handler for GIB alert interruptions on the host. Its task is to alert guests that interrupts are pending for them. A GIB alert interrupt statistic counter is added as well: $ cat /proc/interrupts CPU0 CPU1 ... GAL: 23 37 [I/O] GIB Alert ...

s390: unify stack size definitions

2018-10-09T09:20:58+00:00

Remove STACK_ORDER and STACK_SIZE in favour of identical THREAD_SIZE_ORDER and THREAD_SIZE definitions. THREAD_SIZE and THREAD_SIZE_ORDER naming is misleading since it is used as general kernel stack size information. But both those definitions are used in the common code and throughout architectures specific code, so changing the naming is problematic.

s390: add support for virtually mapped kernel stacks

2018-10-09T09:20:57+00:00

With virtually mapped kernel stacks the kernel stack overflow detection is now fault based, every stack has a guard page in the vmalloc space. The panic_stack is renamed to nodat_stack and is used for all function that need to run without DAT, e.g. memcpy_real or do_start_kdump. The main effect is a reduction in the kernel image size as with vmap stacks the old style overflow checking that adds two instructions per function is not needed anymore. Result from bloat-o-meter: add/remove: 20/1 grow/shrink: 13/26854 up/down: 2198/-216240 (-214042) In regard to performance the micro-benchmark for fork has a hit of a few microseconds, allocating 4 pages in vmalloc space is more expensive compare to an order-2 page allocation. But with real workload I could not find a noticeable difference. Acked-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

s390: remove indirect branch from do_softirq_own_stack

2018-05-07T19:12:42+00:00

The inline assembly to call __do_softirq on the irq stack uses an indirect branch. This can be replaced with a normal relative branch.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

2017-11-02T10:10:55+00:00

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches. Reviewed-by: Kate Stewart Reviewed-by: Philippe Ombredanne Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

s390/time: add support for the TOD clock epoch extension

2017-07-26T06:25:14+00:00

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: Martin Schwidefsky
