<id>urn:sha1:915fea04f9320d0f4ab6ecbb6bf759eebcd2c41d</id>
<content type='text'>
The restart interrupt is triggered whenever a secondary CPU is
brought online, a remote function call dispatched from another
CPU or a manual PSW restart is initiated and causes the system
to kdump. The handling routine is always called with DAT turned
off. It then initializes the stack frame and invokes a callback.

The existing callbacks handle DAT as follows:

  * __do_restart() and __machine_kexec() turn in on upon entry;
  * __ipl_run(), __reipl_run() and __dump_run() do not turn it
    right away, but all of them call diag308() - which turns DAT
    on, but only if kasan is enabled;

In addition to the described complexity all callbacks (and the
functions they call) should avoid kasan instrumentation while
DAT is off.

This update enables DAT in the assembler restart handler and
relieves any callbacks (which are mostly C functions) from
dealing with DAT altogether.

There are four types of CPU restart that initialize control
registers in different ways:

  1. Start of secondary CPU on boot - control registers are
     inherited from the IPL CPU;
  2. Restart of online CPU - control registers of the CPU being
     restarted are kept;
  3. Hotplug of offline CPU - control registers are inherited
     from the starting CPU;
  4. Start of offline CPU triggered by manual PSW restart -
     the control registers are read from the absolute lowcore
     and contain the boot time IPL CPU values updated with all
     follow-up calls of smp_ctl_set_bit() and smp_ctl_clear_bit()
     routines;

In first three cases contents of the control registers is the
most recent. In the latter case control registers are good
enough to facilitate successful completion of kdump operation.

<title>s390: rename dma section to amode31</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c78d0c7484f0a8fc4da0047b81900d00cd26488b</id>
<content type='text'>
The dma section name is confusing, since the code which resides within
that section has nothing to do with direct memory access.  Instead the
limitation is that the code has to run in 31 bit addressing mode, and
therefore has to reside below 2GB.  So the name was chosen since
ZONE_DMA is the same region.

To reduce confusion rename the section to amode31, which hopefully
describes better what this is about.

Note: this will also change vmcoreinfo strings
- SDMA=... gets renamed to SAMODE31=...
- EDMA=... gets renamed to EAMODE31=...

<title>mm: remove unneeded includes of &lt;asm/pgalloc.h&gt;</title>

Patch series "mm: cleanup usage of &lt;asm/pgalloc.h&gt;"

Most architectures have very similar versions of pXd_alloc_one() and
pXd_free_one() for intermediate levels of page table.  These patches add
generic versions of these functions in &lt;asm-generic/pgalloc.h&gt; and enable
use of the generic functions where appropriate.

In addition, functions declared and defined in &lt;asm/pgalloc.h&gt; headers are
used mostly by core mm and early mm initialization in arch and there is no
actual reason to have the &lt;asm/pgalloc.h&gt; included all over the place.
The first patch in this series removes unneeded includes of
&lt;asm/pgalloc.h&gt;

In the end it didn't work out as neatly as I hoped and moving
pXd_alloc_track() definitions to &lt;asm-generic/pgalloc.h&gt; would require
unnecessary changes to arches that have custom page table allocations, so
I've decided to move lib/ioremap.c to mm/ and make pgalloc-track.h local
to mm/.

This patch (of 8):

In most cases &lt;asm/pgalloc.h&gt; header is required only for allocations of
page table memory.  Most of the .c files that include that header do not
use symbols declared in &lt;asm/pgalloc.h&gt; and do not require that header.

As for the other header files that used to include &lt;asm/pgalloc.h&gt;, it is
possible to move that include into the .c file that actually uses symbols
from &lt;asm/pgalloc.h&gt; and drop the include from the header file.

The process was somewhat automated using

	sed -i -E '/[&lt;"]asm\/pgalloc\.h/d' \
                $(grep -L -w -f /tmp/xx \
                        $(git grep -E -l '[&lt;"]asm/pgalloc\.h'))

where /tmp/xx contains all the symbols defined in
arch/*/include/asm/pgalloc.h.

<title>mm: don't include asm/pgtable.h if linux/mm.h is already included</title>

Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.

The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once.  For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.

Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.

static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
        return (address &gt;&gt; PMD_SHIFT) &amp; (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}

static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
        return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}

These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.

For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.

These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.

This patch (of 12):

The linux/mm.h header includes &lt;asm/pgtable.h&gt; to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g.  pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc().  So, there is no point to explicitly include &lt;asm/pgtable.h&gt;
in the files that include &lt;linux/mm.h&gt;.

The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:

	for f in $(git grep -l "include &lt;linux/mm.h&gt;") ; do
		sed -i -e '/include &lt;asm\/pgtable.h&gt;/ d' $f
	done

Hibernation is known to be broken for many years on s390. Given that
there aren't any real use cases, remove the code instead of spending
time to fix and maintain it.

Without hibernate support it doesn't make too much sense to keep power
management support; therefore remove it completely.

<title>s390/kaslr: store KASLR offset for early dumps</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a9f2f6865d784477e1c7b59269d3a384abafd9ca</id>
<content type='text'>
The KASLR offset is added to vmcoreinfo in arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo(),
so that it can be found by crash when processing kernel dumps.

However, arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo() is called during a subsys_initcall,
so if the kernel crashes before that, we have no vmcoreinfo and no KASLR
offset.

Fix this by storing the KASLR offset in the lowcore, where the vmcore_info
pointer will be stored, and where it can be found by crash. In order to
make it distinguishable from a real vmcore_info pointer, mark it as uneven
(KASLR offset itself is aligned to THREAD_SIZE).

When arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo() stores the real vmcore_info pointer in
the lowcore, it overwrites the KASLR offset. At that point, the KASLR
offset is not yet added to vmcoreinfo, so we also need to move the
mem_assign_absolute() behind the vmcoreinfo_append_str().

<id>urn:sha1:98587c2d894c34c9af5cd84ca169e1cd493aa692</id>
<content type='text'>
The disabled_wait() function uses its argument as the PSW address when
it stops the CPU with a wait PSW that is disabled for interrupts.
The different callers sometimes use a specific number like 0xdeadbeef
to indicate a specific failure, the early boot code uses 0 and some
other calls sites use __builtin_return_address(0).

At the time a dump is created the current PSW and the registers of a
CPU are written to lowcore to make them avaiable to the dump analysis
tool. For a CPU stopped with disabled_wait the PSW and the registers
do not really make sense together, the PSW address does not point to
the function the registers belong to.

Simplify disabled_wait() by using _THIS_IP_ for the PSW address and
drop the argument to the function.
