2009-06-12[S390] implement is_compat_taskHeiko Carstens
Implement is_compat_task and use it all over the place. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
2009-06-12[S390] vdso: kernel parameter syntaxMartin Schwidefsky
The syntax of the vdso kernel parameter is documented as vdso=[on|off]. The implementation uses vdso=[0|1], an invalid parameter string disables the vdso support. Fix the mismatch by adding vdso=[on|off] as additional parameter syntax. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
2009-03-26[S390] smp: fix memory leak on __cpu_upHeiko Carstens
If sigp_set_prefix fails on __cpu_up we leak the lowcore structures and async+panic stacks for the failed cpu. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
2009-01-09[S390] vdso: compile fixHeiko Carstens
!CONFIG_SMP: arch/s390/kernel/vdso.c: In function 'vdso_init': arch/s390/kernel/vdso.c:325: error: incompatible type for argument 2 of 'vdso_alloc_per_cpu' Also move the code out of the BUG_ON statement since it won't be executed on !CONFIG_BUG. And that would be a bug. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
2008-12-31[PATCH] fast vdso implementation for CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_IDMartin Schwidefsky
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.

2008-12-25[S390] introduce vdso on s390Martin Schwidefsky
Add a vdso to speed up gettimeofday and clock_getres/clock_gettime for CLOCK_REALTIME/CLOCK_MONOTONIC. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
