2016-05-10s390: make couple of variables and functions staticHeiko Carstens1-1/+1
copy_oldmem_user() and ap_jumptable are private to the files they are being used in. Therefore make them static. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

2016-01-11s390: rename struct _lowcore to struct lowcoreHeiko Carstens1-2/+2
Finally get rid of the leading underscore. I tried this already two or three years ago, however Michael Holzheu objected since this would break the crash utility (again). However Michael integrated support for the new name into the crash utility back then, so it doesn't break if the name will be changed now. So finally get rid of the ever confusing leading underscore.

2015-11-27s390/dump: cleanup CPU save area handlingMartin Schwidefsky1-142/+121
Introduce save_area_alloc(), save_area_boot_cpu(), save_area_add_regs() and save_area_add_vxrs to deal with storing the CPU state in case of a system dump. Remove struct save_area and save_area_ext, and create a new struct save_area as a local definition to arch/s390/kernel/crash_dump.c. Copy each individual field from the hardware status area to the save area, storing the minimum of required data. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

2015-11-27s390/kdump: remove code to create ELF notes in the crashed systemMartin Schwidefsky1-21/+3
The s390 architecture can store the CPU registers of the crashed system after the kdump kernel has been started and this is the preferred way. Remove the remaining code fragments that deal with storing CPU registers while the crashed system is still active.

The <linux/memblock.h> already provides for_each_mem_range() macro that iterates through memblock areas from type_a and not included in type_b.

2015-06-25s390/kdump: fix nosmt kernel parameterMichael Holzheu1-25/+0
It turned out that SIGP set-multi-threading can only be done once. Therefore switching to a different MT level after switching to sclp.mtid_prev in the dump case fails. As a symptom specifying the "nosmt" parameter currently fails for the kdump kernel and the kernel starts with multi-threading enabled. So fix this and issue diag 308 subcode 1 call after collecting the CPU states for the dump. Also enhance the diag308_reset() function to be usable also with enabled lowcore protection and prefix register != 0. After the reset it is possible to switch the MT level again. We have to do the reset very early in order not to kill the already initialized console. Therefore instead of kmalloc() the corresponding memblock functions have to be used. To avoid copying the sclp cpu code into sclp_early, we now use the simple sigp loop method for CPU detection.

The REGSET_VX_LOW ELF notes should contain the lower 64 bit halfes of the first sixteen 128 bit vector registers. Unfortunately currently we copy the upper halfes.

2015-06-24mm/memblock: add extra "flags" to memblock to allow selection of memory ↵Tony Luck1-2/+3
based on attribute Some high end Intel Xeon systems report uncorrectable memory errors as a recoverable machine check. Linux has included code for some time to process these and just signal the affected processes (or even recover completely if the error was in a read only page that can be replaced by reading from disk). But we have no recovery path for errors encountered during kernel code execution. Except for some very specific cases were are unlikely to ever be able to recover. Enter memory mirroring. Actually 3rd generation of memory mirroing. Gen1: All memory is mirrored Pro: No s/w enabling - h/w just gets good data from other side of the mirror Con: Halves effective memory capacity available to OS/applications Gen2: Partial memory mirror - just mirror memory begind some memory controllers Pro: Keep more of the capacity Con: Nightmare to enable. Have to choose between allocating from mirrored memory for safety vs. NUMA local memory for performance Gen3: Address range partial memory mirror - some mirror on each memory controller Pro: Can tune the amount of mirror and keep NUMA performance Con: I have to write memory management code to implement The current plan is just to use mirrored memory for kernel allocations. This has been broken into two phases: 1) This patch series - find the mirrored memory, use it for boot time allocations 2) Wade into mm/page_alloc.c and define a ZONE_MIRROR to pick up the unused mirrored memory from mm/memblock.c and only give it out to select kernel allocations (this is still being scoped because page_alloc.c is scary). This patch (of 3): Add extra "flags" to memblock to allow selection of memory based on attribute.

2015-05-13s390/sclp: unify basic sclp access by exposing "struct sclp"David Hildenbrand1-4/+4
Let's unify basic access to sclp fields by storing the data in an external struct in asm/sclp.h. The values can now directly be accessed by other components, so there is no need for most accessor functions and external variables anymore.

2014-10-09s390/kdump: add support for vector extensionMichael Holzheu1-9/+49
With this patch for kdump the s390 vector registers are stored into the prepared save areas in the old kernel and into the REGSET_VX_LOW and REGSET_VX_HIGH ELF notes for /proc/vmcore in the new kernel. The NT_S390_VXRS_LOW note contains the lower halves of the first 16 vector registers 0-15. The higher halves are stored in the floating point register ELF note. The NT_S390_VXRS_HIGH contains the full vector registers 16-31. The kernel provides a save area for storing vector register in case of machine checks. A pointer to this save are is stored in the CPU lowcore at offset 0x11b0. This save area is also used to save the registers for kdump. In case of a dumped crashed kdump those areas are used to extract the registers of the production system. The vector registers for remote CPUs are stored using the "store additional status at address" SIGP. For the dump CPU the vector registers are stored with the VSTM instruction. With this patch also zfcpdump stores the vector registers.

The current memory detection loop will detect all present memory of a machine. This is true even if the user specified the "mem=" parameter on the kernel command line. This can be a problem since the memory detection may cause a fully populated host page table for the guest, even for those parts of the memory that the guest will never use afterwards.
