<id>urn:sha1:fad442d3abde47aef97d0d822807ab6e2555784a</id>
<content type='text'>
Explicitly provide identical sized original/alternative instruction
sequences. This way there is no need for the s390 specific alternatives
infrastructure to generate padding sequences.
The code which generates such sequences will be removed with a follow on
patch.

<title>s390: add KCSAN instrumentation to barriers and spinlocks</title>

<content type='text'>
test_barrier fails on s390 because of the missing KCSAN instrumentation
for several synchronization primitives.

Add it to barriers by defining __mb(), __rmb(), __wmb(), __dma_rmb()
and __dma_wmb(), and letting the common code in asm-generic/barrier.h
do the rest.

Spinlocks require instrumentation only on the unlock path; notify KCSAN
that the CPU cannot move memory accesses outside of the spin lock. In
reality it also cannot move stores inside of it, but this is not
important and can be omitted.

<content type='text'>
Use insn format with instruction format specifier instead of plain
longs. This way it is also more obvious that code instead of data is
generated.

The generated code is identical.

<title>locking: Remove spin_lock_flags() etc</title>

parisc, ia64 and powerpc32 are the only remaining architectures that
provide custom arch_{spin,read,write}_lock_flags() functions, which are
meant to re-enable interrupts while waiting for a spinlock.

However, none of these can actually run into this codepath, because
it is only called on architectures without CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK,
or when CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC is set without CONFIG_LOCKDEP, and none
of those combinations are possible on the three architectures.

Going back in the git history, it appears that arch/mn10300 may have
been able to run into this code path, but there is a good chance that
it never worked. On the architectures that still exist, it was
already impossible to hit back in 2008 after the introduction of
CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK, and possibly earlier.

As this is all dead code, just remove it and the helper functions built
around it. For arch/ia64, the inline asm could be cleaned up, but
it seems safer to leave it untouched.

<title>s390/alternatives: make use of asm_inline</title>

<id>urn:sha1:cceb018377a123dd77d3239bbdbfbdf50f0d6a71</id>
<content type='text'>
This is the s390 version of commit 40576e5e63ea ("x86: alternative.h:
use asm_inline for all alternative variants").

See commit eb111869301e ("compiler-types.h: add asm_inline
definition") for more details.

With this change the compiler will not generate many out-of-line
versions for the three instruction sized arch_spin_unlock() function
anymore. Due to this gcc seems to change a lot of other inline
decisions which results in a net 6k text size growth according to
bloat-o-meter (gcc 9.2 with defconfig).
But that's still better than having many out-of-line versions of
arch_spin_unlock().

<content type='text'>
There never have been distributions that shiped with CONFIG_SMP=n for
s390. In addition the kernel currently doesn't even compile with
CONFIG_SMP=n for s390. Most likely it wouldn't even work, even if we
fix the compile error, since nobody tests it, since there is no use
case that I can think of.
Therefore simply enforce CONFIG_SMP and get rid of some more or
less unused code.

Pull core locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes in this cycle are:

   - Another attempt at enabling cross-release lockdep dependency
     tracking (automatically part of CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y), this time
     with better performance and fewer false positives. (Byungchul Park)

   - Introduce lockdep_assert_irqs_enabled()/disabled() and convert
     open-coded equivalents to lockdep variants. (Frederic Weisbecker)

   - Add down_read_killable() and use it in the VFS's iterate_dir()
     method. (Kirill Tkhai)

   - Convert remaining uses of ACCESS_ONCE() to
     READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE(). Most of the conversion was Coccinelle
     driven. (Mark Rutland, Paul E. McKenney)

   - Get rid of lockless_dereference(), by strengthening Alpha atomics,
     strengthening READ_ONCE() with smp_read_barrier_depends() and thus
     being able to convert users of lockless_dereference() to
     READ_ONCE(). (Will Deacon)

   - Various micro-optimizations:

        - better PV qspinlocks (Waiman Long),
        - better x86 barriers (Michael S. Tsirkin)
        - better x86 refcounts (Kees Cook)

   - ... plus other fixes and enhancements. (Borislav Petkov, Juergen
     Gross, Miguel Bernal Marin)"

   - hardware accelerated AES-GCM support for the aes_s390 module

   - support for the new CEX6S crypto cards

   - support for FORTIFY_SOURCE

   - addition of missing z13 and new z14 instructions to the in-kernel
     disassembler

     simple text file instead of having to manually maintain those
     tables

   - fast memset16, memset32 and memset64 implementations

   - removal of named saved segment support

   - hardware counter support for z14

   - queued spinlocks and queued rwlocks implementations for s390
