* s390: introduce execute-trampolines for branchesMartin Schwidefsky2018-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit f19fbd5ed642dc31c809596412dab1ed56f2f156 ] Add CONFIG_EXPOLINE to enable the use of the new -mindirect-branch= and -mfunction_return= compiler options to create a kernel fortified against the specte v2 attack. With CONFIG_EXPOLINE=y all indirect branches will be issued with an execute type instruction. For z10 or newer the EXRL instruction will be used, for older machines the EX instruction. The typical indirect call basr %r14,%r1 is replaced with a PC relative call to a new thunk brasl %r14,__s390x_indirect_jump_r1 The thunk contains the EXRL/EX instruction to the indirect branch __s390x_indirect_jump_r1: exrl 0,0f j . 0: br %r1 The detour via the execute type instruction has a performance impact. To get rid of the detour the new kernel parameter "nospectre_v2" and "spectre_v2=[on,off,auto]" can be used. If the parameter is specified the kernel and module code will be patched at runtime.

* s390/dump: Remove CONFIG_ZFCPDUMPMichael Holzheu2014-05-20
| | | | | | | | | | | Currently there are two s390 kernel dump config options "CONFIG_ZFCPDUMP" and "CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP". In order to keep things simple and because the "CONFIG_ZFCPDUMP" option already has a dependency to "CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP" remove the CONFIG_ZFCPDUMP option.

* [S390] Remove tape block device driver.Heiko Carstens2011-05-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the tape block device driver. It's not of real use but has already created some confusion when users wanted to access tape devices and used the block device nodes instead of the character device nodes. Also remove the whole tape documentation since it's completely outdated and we have the device drivers book which is the place where everything is properly documented.

* [S390] Standby cpu activation/deactivation.Heiko Carstens2008-01-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a new interface so that cpus can be put into standby state and configured state. Only offline cpus can be put into standby state or configured state. For that the new percpu sysfs attribute "configure" must be used. To put a cpu in standby state a "0" must be written to the attribute. In order to switch it into configured state a "1" must be written to the attribute. Only cpus in configured state can be brought online. In addition this patch introduces a static mapping of physical to logical cpus. As a result only the sysfs directories of present cpus will be created. To scan for new cpus the new sysfs attribute "rescan" must be used. Writing to /sys/devices/system/cpu/rescan will trigger a rescan of cpus and will create directories for new cpus. On IPL only configured cpus will be used. And on reboot/shutdown all cpus will remain in their current state (configured/standby).

* [S390] zfcpdump support.Michael Holzheu2007-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | s390 machines provide hardware support for creating Linux dumps on SCSI disks. For creating a dump a special purpose dump Linux is used. The first 32 MB of memory are saved by the hardware before the dump Linux is booted. Via an SCLP interface, the saved memory can be accessed from Linux. This patch exports memory and registers of the crashed Linux to userspace via a debugfs file. For more information refer to Documentation/s390/zfcpdump.txt, which is included in this patch.

* [S390] Convert memory detection into C code.Heiko Carstens2007-02-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hopefully this will make it more maintainable and less error prone. Code makes use of search_exception_tables(). Since it calls this function before the kernel exeception table is sorted, there is an early call to sort_main_extable(). This way it's easy to use the already present infrastructure of fixup sections. Also this would allows to easily convert the rest of head[31|64].S into C code.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
