2009-09-11[S390] tape: Fix device online messagesMichael Holzheu
Currently, when a tape device is set online and no cartridge is loaded, we get the messages "The tape cartridge has been successfully unloaded" and "Determining the size of the recorded area". These messages are not correct. To fix this, we now print the "cartridge loaded/unloaded" messages only, when the load/unload event really occurs. In addition to that, the message "Determining the size of the recorded area" is only printed, if a cartridge is loaded.

2009-09-11[S390] Initialize __LC_THREAD_INFO early.Heiko Carstens
"lockdep: Fix backtraces" reveales a bug in early setup code: when lockdep tries to save a stack backtrace before setup_arch has been called the lowcore pointer for the current thread info pointer isn't initialized yet. However our save stack backtrace code relies on it. If the pointer isn't initialized the saved backtrace will have zero entries. lockdep however relies (correctly) on the fact that that cannot happen. A write access to some random memory region is the result. Fix this by initializing the thread info pointer early.

2009-09-11[S390] fix recursive locking on page_table_lockMartin Schwidefsky
Suzuki Poulose reported the following recursive locking bug on s390: Here is the stack trace : (see Appendix I for more info) [<0000000000406ed6>] _spin_lock+0x52/0x94 [<0000000000103bde>] crst_table_free+0x14e/0x1a4 [<00000000001ba684>] __pmd_alloc+0x114/0x1ec [<00000000001be8d0>] handle_mm_fault+0x2cc/0xb80 [<0000000000407d62>] do_dat_exception+0x2b6/0x3a0 [<0000000000114f8c>] sysc_return+0x0/0x8 [<00000200001642b2>] 0x200001642b2 The page_table_lock is already acquired in __pmd_alloc (mm/memory.c) and it tries to populate the pud/pgd with a new pmd allocated. If another thread populates it before we get a chance, we free the pmd using pmd_free(). On s390x, pmd_free(even pud_free ) is #defined to crst_table_free(), which acquires the page_table_lock to protect the crst_table index updates. Hence this ends up in a recursive locking of the page_table_lock. The solution suggested by Dave Hansen is to use a new spin lock in the mmu context to protect the access to the crst_list and the pgtable_list.

2009-09-11[S390] xpram: Remove checksum validation for suspend/resumeMichael Holzheu
Currently in the suspend process checksums for the XPRAM partitions are created and stored. During the resume process it is checked, if the checksums are still the same. If this is not the case, a kernel panic is triggered. Unfortunately this prevents XPRAM from beeing used as suspend device, because in this case after the checksum has been created, the memory image is written to XPRAM and therefore the contents of the suspend partition is changed. In order to allow XPRAM to be used as suspend device, this patch removes the checksum validation.

2009-09-11[S390] vmur: Invalid allocation sequence for vmur classMichael Holzheu
The vmur class is allocated after the CCW driver is registered and it is destroyed before the CCW driver is unregistered. This is not the correct sequence, because the vmur class can be used via driver core callbacks that are triggered during the CCW driver deregistration. For Example: 1. vmur device is online 2. vmur module is unloaded This leads to the following function call stack: <4> [<0000000000387286>] device_destroy+0x36/0x5c <4> [<000003e000209714>] ur_set_offline_force+0x9c/0x10c [vmur] <4> [<000003e00020a928>] ur_remove+0x64/0xbc [vmur] <4> [<00000000003e4d2e>] ccw_device_remove+0x42/0x1ac <4> [<000000000038a1aa>] __device_release_driver+0x9a/0xe4 <4> [<000000000038a2da>] driver_detach+0xe6/0xec <4> [<0000000000388ee4>] bus_remove_driver+0xc0/0x108 <4> [<000003e00020ad5a>] ur_exit+0x52/0x84 [vmur] In device_destroy() the vmur class is used. Since it is already freed, this can lead to a kernel panic. To fix the problem, the vmur class has to be allocated before the CCW driver is registered and destroyed after the CCW driver has ben unregistered.

2009-09-11[S390] clean up linker script using new linker script macros.Nelson Elhage
Note that this patch moves .data.init_task inside _edata. In addition, the alignment of .init.ramfs changes: It is now PAGE_ALIGNED and __initramfs_end is arbitrarily aligned; Previously it was only aligned to a 0x100-byte boundary, and always ended on an even byte. This change results in fewer output sections and in some data being reordered, but should have no functional effect.

2009-09-11[S390] Use macros for .data.page_aligned.Tim Abbott
.data.page_aligned should not need a separate output section, so as part of this cleanup I moved into the .data output section in the linker scripts in order to eliminate unnecessary references to the section name. Remove the reference to .data.idt, since nothing is put into the .data.idt section on the s390 architecture. It looks like Cyrill Gorcunov posted a patch to remove the .data.idt code on s390 previously: <http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0802.2/2536.html> CCing him and the people who acked that patch in case there's a reason it wasn't applied.

2009-09-11[S390] move (io|sysc)_restore_trace_psw into .data sectionHendrik Brueckner
The sysc_restore_trace_psw and io_restore_trace_psw storage locations are created in the .text section. When creating and IPLing from a named saved system (NSS), writing to these locations causes a protection exception (because the .text section is mapped as shared read-only in the NSS). To permit write access, move the storage locations into the .data section. The problem occurs only when CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS is set.

Append scpdata to the kernel boot command line. If scpdata starts with the equal sign (=), the kernel boot command line is replaced. (For consistency with zIPL and IPL PARM parameters.) To use scpdata for the kernel boot command line, scpdata must consist of ascii characters only. If scpdata contains other characters, scpdata is not appended to the kernel boot command line. In addition, re-IPL is extended for setting scpdata for the next Linux reboot.
