fecc868a66 s390: remove all usages of PSW_ADDR_AMODE
This is a leftover from the 31 bit area. For CONFIG_64BIT the usual
operation "y = x | PSW_ADDR_AMODE" is a nop. Therefore remove all
usages of PSW_ADDR_AMODE and make the code a bit less confusing.

1a36a39e22 s390/dump: rework CPU register dump code
To collect the CPU registers of the crashed system allocated a single
page with memblock_alloc_base and use it as a copy buffer. Replace the
stop-and-store-status sigp with a store-status-at-address sigp in
smp_save_dump_cpus() and smp_store_status(). In both cases the target
CPU is already stopped and store-status-at-address avoids the detour
via the absolute zero page.

For kexec simplify s390_reset_system and call store_status() before
the prefix register of the boot CPU has been set to zero. Use STPX
to store the prefix register and remove dump_prefix_page.

b5510d9b68 s390/fpu: always enable the vector facility if it is available
If the kernel detects that the s390 hardware supports the vector
facility, it is enabled by default at an early stage.  To force
it off, use the novx kernel parameter.  Note that there is a small
time window, where the vector facility is enabled before it is
forced to be off.

With enabling the vector facility by default, the FPU save and
restore functions can be improved.  They do not longer require
to manage expensive control register updates to enable or disable
the vector enablement control for particular processes.

5a79859ae0 s390: remove 31 bit support
Remove the 31 bit support in order to reduce maintenance cost and
effectively remove dead code. Since a couple of years there is no
distribution left that comes with a 31 bit kernel.

The 31 bit kernel also has been broken since more than a year before
anybody noticed. In addition I added a removal warning to the kernel
shown at ipl for 5 minutes: a960062e58 ("s390: add 31 bit warning
message") which let everybody know about the plan to remove 31 bit
code. We didn't get any response.

Given that the last 31 bit only machine was introduced in 1999 let's
remove the code.
Anybody with 31 bit user space code can still use the compat mode.

c933146a5e s390/ftrace,kprobes: allow to patch first instruction
If the function tracer is enabled, allow to set kprobes on the first
instruction of a function (which is the function trace caller):

If no kprobe is set handling of enabling and disabling function tracing
of a function simply patches the first instruction. Either it is a nop
(right now it's an unconditional branch, which skips the mcount block),
or it's a branch to the ftrace_caller() function.

If a kprobe is being placed on a function tracer calling instruction
we encode if we actually have a nop or branch in the remaining bytes
after the breakpoint instruction (illegal opcode).
This is possible, since the size of the instruction used for the nop
and branch is six bytes, while the size of the breakpoint is only
two bytes.
Therefore the first two bytes contain the illegal opcode and the last
four bytes contain either "0" for nop or "1" for branch. The kprobes
code will then execute/simulate the correct instruction.

Instruction patching for kprobes and function tracer is always done
with stop_machine(). Therefore we don't have any races where an
instruction is patched concurrently on a different cpu.
Besides that also the program check handler which executes the function
trace caller instruction won't be executed concurrently to any
stop_machine() execution.

This allows to keep full fault based kprobes handling which generates
correct pt_regs contents automatically.

8070361799 s390: add support for vector extension
The vector extension introduces 32 128-bit vector registers and a set of
instruction to operate on the vector registers.

The kernel can control the use of vector registers for the problem state
program with a bit in control register 0. Once enabled for a process the
kernel needs to retain the content of the vector registers on context
switch. The signal frame is extended to include the vector registers.
Two new register sets NT_S390_VXRS_LOW and NT_S390_VXRS_HIGH are added
to the regset interface for the debugger and core dumps.

1b948d6cae s390/mm,tlb: optimize TLB flushing for zEC12
The zEC12 machines introduced the local-clearing control for the IDTE
and IPTE instruction. If the control is set only the TLB of the local
CPU is cleared of entries, either all entries of a single address space
for IDTE, or the entry for a single page-table entry for IPTE.
Without the local-clearing control the TLB flush is broadcasted to all
CPUs in the configuration, which is expensive.

The reset of the bit mask of the CPUs that need flushing after a
non-local IDTE is tricky. As TLB entries for an address space remain
in the TLB even if the address space is detached a new bit field is
required to keep track of attached CPUs vs. CPUs in the need of a
flush. After a non-local flush with IDTE the bit-field of attached CPUs
is copied to the bit-field of CPUs in need of a flush. The ordering
of operations on cpu_attach_mask, attach_count and mm_cpumask(mm) is
such that an underindication in mm_cpumask(mm) is prevented but an
overindication in mm_cpumask(mm) is possible.

The current memory detection loop will detect all present memory of

This can be a problem since the memory detection may cause a fully

memory that the guest will never use afterwards.

So fix this and only detect memory up to a user supplied "mem=" limit
if specified.

fade4dc491 s390/sysinfo,topology: fix cpu topology maximum nesting detection
The maximum nesting of the cpu topology is evaluated when /proc/sysinfo
is the first time read. This happens without a lock and a concurrent
reader on a different cpu can see and use an invalid intermediate value.
Besides the fact that this race is quite unlikely the worst thing that
could happen is that /proc/sysinfo would contain bogus information about
the machine's cpu topology.
Nevertheless this should be fixed. So move the detection code to the
early machine detection code and since now the value is early available
use it in the topology code as well.

3ab121ab18 [S390] kernel: Add z/VM LGR detection
Currently the following mechanisms are available to move active
Linux on System z instances between machines:
* z/VM 6.2 SSI (Single System Image)
* Suspend/resume
For moving Linux instances in this patch the term LGR (Linux Guest
Relocation) is used. Because such an operation is critical, it
should be detectable from Linux. With this patch for both, a live
system and a kernel dump, the information about LGRs is accessible.
To identify a guest, stsi and stfle data is used. A new function
lgr_info_log() compares the current data (lgr_info_cur) with the
last recorded one (lgr_info_last). In case the two data sets differ,
lgr_info_cur is logged to the "lgr" s390dbf.

The following trigger points call lgr_info_log():
* panic
* die
* kdump
* LGR timer
* PSW restart
* QDIO recovery
* resume

This patch also changes the s390dbf hex_ascii view. Now only printable ASCII
characters are shown.

1fb810576f [S390] Check for NULL termination in command line setup
The current code in setup_boot_command_line() uses a heuristic to
detect an EBCDIC command line. It checks if any of the bytes in
the command line has bit one (0x80) set. In that case it is assumed
that we have an EBCDIC string and the complete command line is
converted.

On s390 there are cases where the boot loader provides a kernel
command line that is NULL terminated, but has random data after
the NULL termination. In that case, setup_boot_command_line()
might misinterpret an ASCII string for an EBCDIC string. A
subsequent string conversion can then damage the ASCII string.

This patch solves the problem by checking for NULL termination.
If no EBCDIC character has been found until the the NULL
termination has been found, we now assume that we have an ASCII
string.

cd3b70f5d4 [S390] virtualization aware cpu measurement
Use the SPP instruction to set a tag on entry to / exit of the virtual
machine context. This allows the cpu measurement facility to distinguish
the samples from the host and the different guests.

187644636e [S390] nss: add missing .previous statement to asm function
The savesys_ipl_nss asm function is put into the .init.text section
however it is missing a ".previous" section which would restore the
previous section.
Luckily all functions in early.c are init functions so it doesn't
matter currently.

b89031e087 [S390] reset cputime accounting after IPL from NSS
After an IPL from NSS the uptime of the system is incorrect. The reason
is that the startup code in head.S is not executed in case of an IPL
from NSS. Due to that sched_clock_base_cc which is used to initialze
wall_to_monotonic contains the time stamp when the NSS has been created
instead of the time stamp of the system start.

Reinitialize the cputime accounting values in create_kernel_nss after
the SAVESYS CP command that created the NSS segment.

d3135e0c40 [S390] kernel: always keep machine flags in lowcore
Eleminate the local variable machine_flags and always change machine
flags directly in the lowcore.
This avoids confusion about when and why the two variables have to be
synchronized.
