2010-05-17[S390] idle time accounting vs. machine checksMartin Schwidefsky1-47/+51
A machine check can interrupt the i/o and external interrupt handler anytime. If the machine check occurs while the interrupt handler is waking up from idle vtime_start_cpu can get executed a second time and the int_clock / async_enter_timer values in the lowcore get clobbered. This can confuse the cpu time accounting. To fix this problem two changes are needed. First the machine check handler has to use its own copies of int_clock and async_enter_timer, named mcck_clock and mcck_enter_timer. Second the nested execution of vtime_start_cpu has to be prevented. This is done in s390_idle_check by checking the wait bit in the program status word.

2010-05-17[S390] More cleanup for struct _lowcoreMartin Schwidefsky1-25/+23
Remove cpu_id from lowcore and replace addr_t with __u64. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
2010-02-26[S390] Cleanup struct _lowcore usage and defines.Heiko Carstens1-186/+55
Use asm offsets to make sure the offset defines to struct _lowcore and its layout don't get out of sync. Also add a BUILD_BUG_ON() which checks that the size of the structure is sane. And while being at it change those sites which use odd casts to access the current lowcore. These should use S390_lowcore instead.

2010-02-26[S390] smp: rename and add lowcore definesHeiko Carstens1-1/+4
Rename __LC_RESTART_PSW to __LC_RST_NEW_PSW, add a define for the missing 32 bit variant and the missing old PSWs. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
2010-02-26[S390] zfcpdump: remove cross arch dump supportHeiko Carstens1-16/+10
Remove support to be able to dump 31 bit systems with a 64 bit dumper. This is mostly useless since no distro ships 31 bit kernels together with a 64 bit dumper. We also get rid of a bit of hacky code. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

2009-09-22[S390] hibernate: Do real CPU swap at resume timeMichael Holzheu1-0/+1
Currently, when the physical resume CPU is not equal to the physical suspend CPU, we swap the CPUs logically, by modifying the logical/physical CPU mapping. This has two major drawbacks: First the change is visible from user space (e.g. CPU sysfs files) and second it is hard to ensure that nowhere in the kernel the physical CPU ID is stored before suspend. To fix this, we now really swap the physical CPUs, if the resume CPU is not the pysical suspend CPU. We restart the suspend CPU and stop the resume CPU using SIGP restart and SIGP stop. If the suspend CPU is no longer available, we write a message and load a disabled wait PSW.

2009-09-22[S390] hibernate: make sure pfn_is_nosave handles lowcore pagesHeiko Carstens1-0/+2
pfn_is_nosave doesn't return the correct value for the second lowcore page if lowcore protection is enabled. Make sure it always returns the correct value. While at it simplify the whole thing. NSS special handling is done by the tprot check like it already works for DCSS as well. So remove the extra code for NSS.

2009-04-14[S390] s390: move machine flags to lowcoreChristian Ehrhardt1-4/+8
Currently the storage of the machine flags is a globally exported unsigned long long variable. By moving the storage location into the lowcore struct we allow assembler code to check machine_flags directly even without needing a register. Addtionally the lowcore and therefore the machine flags too will be in cache most of the time.

The vdso_per_cpu_data entry in the lowcore structure uses __u32 instead of __u64. If the data page is above 4GB the pointer is truncated and the kernel crashes. Reported-by: Mijo Safradin <mijo@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
2008-12-31[PATCH] fast vdso implementation for CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_IDMartin Schwidefsky1-1/+8
The extract cpu time instruction (ectg) instruction allows the user process to get the current thread cputime without calling into the kernel. The code that uses the instruction needs to switch to the access registers mode to get access to the per-cpu info page that contains the two base values that are needed to calculate the current cputime from the CPU timer with the ectg instruction.

2008-12-31[PATCH] improve precision of process accounting.Martin Schwidefsky1-20/+20
The unit of the cputime accouting values that are stored per process is currently a microsecond. The CPU timer has a maximum granularity of 2**-12 microseconds. There is no benefit in storing the per process values in the lesser precision and there is the disadvantage that the backend has to do the rounding to microseconds. The better solution is to use the maximum granularity of the CPU timer as cputime unit. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
