[S390] idle: remove idle notifier chain.

2008-07-14T08:02:13Z

The idle notifier chain consists of at most one element. So there's no point in having a notifier chain. Remove it and directly call the function. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

[S390] kernel: show last breaking-event-address on oops

2008-04-17T05:47:07Z

Newer s390 models have a breaking-event-address-recording register. Each time an instruction causes a break in the sequential instruction execution, the address is saved in that hardware register. On a program interrupt the address is copied to the lowcore address 272-279, which makes it software accessible. This patch changes the program check handler and the stack overflow checker to copy the value into the pt_regs argument. The oops output is enhanced to show the last known breaking address. It might give additional information if the stack trace is corrupted. The feature is only available on 64 bit. The new oops output looks like: [---------snip----------] Modules linked in: vmcp sunrpc qeth_l2 dm_mod qeth ccwgroup CPU: 2 Not tainted 2.6.24zlive-host #8 Process modprobe (pid: 4788, task: 00000000bf3d8718, ksp: 00000000b2b0b8e0) Krnl PSW : 0704200180000000 000003e000020028 (vmcp_init+0x28/0xe4 [vmcp]) R:0 T:1 IO:1 EX:1 Key:0 M:1 W:0 P:0 AS:0 CC:2 PM:0 EA:3 Krnl GPRS: 0000000004000002 000003e000020000 0000000000000000 0000000000000001 000000000015734c ffffffffffffffff 000003e0000b3b00 0000000000000000 000003e00007ca30 00000000b5bb5d40 00000000b5bb5800 000003e0000b3b00 000003e0000a2000 00000000003ecf50 00000000b2b0bd50 00000000b2b0bcb0 Krnl Code: 000003e000020018: c0c000040ff4 larl %r12,3e0000a2000 000003e00002001e: e3e0f0000024 stg %r14,0(%r15) 000003e000020024: a7f40001 brc 15,3e000020026 >000003e000020028: e310c0100004 lg %r1,16(%r12) 000003e00002002e: c020000413dc larl %r2,3e0000a27e6 000003e000020034: c0a00004aee6 larl %r10,3e0000b5e00 000003e00002003a: a7490001 lghi %r4,1 000003e00002003e: a75900f0 lghi %r5,240 Call Trace: ([<000000000014b300>] blocking_notifier_call_chain+0x2c/0x40) [<000000000015735c>] sys_init_module+0x19d8/0x1b08 [<0000000000110afc>] sysc_noemu+0x10/0x16 [<000002000011cda2>] 0x2000011cda2 Last Breaking-Event-Address: [<000003e000020024>] vmcp_init+0x24/0xe4 [vmcp] [---------snip----------] Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens

[S390] dynamic page tables.

2008-02-09T17:24:41Z

Add support for different number of page table levels dependent on the highest address used for a process. This will cause a 31 bit process to use a two level page table instead of the four level page table that is the default after the pud has been introduced. Likewise a normal 64 bit process will use three levels instead of four. Only if a process runs out of the 4 tera bytes which can be addressed with a three level page table the fourth level is dynamically added. Then the process can use up to 8 peta byte.

proc: seqfile convert proc_pid_status to properly handle pid namespaces

2008-02-08T17:22:24Z

Currently we possibly lookup the pid in the wrong pid namespace. So seq_file convert proc_pid_status which ensures the proper pid namespaces is passed in.

maps4: rework TASK_SIZE macros

2008-02-05T17:44:16Z

The following replaces the earlier patches sent. It should address David Rientjes's comments, and has been compile tested on all the architectures that it touches, save for parisc. For the /proc//pagemap code[1], we need to able to query how much virtual address space a particular task has. The trick is that we do it through /proc and can't use TASK_SIZE since it references "current" on some arches. The process opening the /proc file might be a 32-bit process opening a 64-bit process's pagemap file. x86_64 already has a TASK_SIZE_OF() macro: #define TASK_SIZE_OF(child) ((test_tsk_thread_flag(child, TIF_IA32)) ? IA32_PAGE_OFFSET : TASK_SIZE64) I'd like to have that for other architectures. So, add it for all the architectures that actually use "current" in their TASK_SIZE. For the others, just add a quick #define in sched.h to use plain old TASK_SIZE. 1. http://www.linuxworld.com/news/2007/042407-kernel.html - MIPS portion from Ralf Baechle [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix mips build] Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle Signed-off-by: Matt Mackall Acked-by: David Rientjes Cc: Dave Hansen Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
