udelay is implemented by using quite subtle details to make it
possible to load an idle psw and waiting for an interrupt even in irq
context or when interrupts are disabled. Also handling (or better: no
handling) of softirqs is taken into account.
All this is done to optimize for something which should in normal
circumstances never happen: calling udelay to busy wait. Therefore get
rid of the whole complexity and just busy loop like other
architectures are doing it also.
It could have been possible to use diag 0x44 instead of cpu_relax() in
the busy loop, however we have seen too many bad things happen with
diag 0x44 that it seems to be better to simply busy loop.
Also note that with this new implementation kernel preemption does
work when within the udelay loop. This did not work before.
To get a feeling what the former code optimizes for: IPL'ing a kernel
with 'defconfig' and afterwards compiling a kernel ends with a total
of zero udelay calls.

Instead of registering an external interrupt handler and relying on

The CALL_ON_STACK tests use the no_dat stack to switch to a different
stack for unwinding tests. If an interrupt or machine check happens
while using that stack, and previously being on the async stack, the
interrupt / machine check entry code (SWITCH_ASYNC) will assume that
the previous context did not use the async stack and happily use the
async stack again.
This will lead to stack corruption of the previous context.
To solve this disable both interrupts and machine checks before
switching to the no_dat stack.

With commit 58c644ba51 ("sched/idle: Fix arch_cpu_idle() vs
tracing") common code calls arch_cpu_idle() with a lockdep state that
tells irqs are on.
This doesn't work very well for s390: psw_idle() will enable interrupts
to wait for an interrupt. As soon as an interrupt occurs the interrupt
handler will verify if the old context was psw_idle(). If that is the
case the interrupt enablement bits in the old program status word will
be cleared.
A subsequent test in both the external as well as the io interrupt
handler checks if in the old context interrupts were enabled. Due to
the above patching of the old program status word it is assumed the
old context had interrupts disabled, and therefore a call to
TRACE_IRQS_OFF (aka trace_hardirqs_off_caller) is skipped. Which in
turn makes lockdep incorrectly "think" that interrupts are enabled
within the interrupt handler.
Fix this by unconditionally calling TRACE_IRQS_OFF when entering
interrupt handlers. Also call unconditionally TRACE_IRQS_ON when
leaving interrupts handlers.
This leaves the special psw_idle() case, which now returns with
interrupts disabled, but has an "irqs on" lockdep state. So callers of
psw_idle() must adjust the state on their own, if required. This is
currently only __udelay_disabled().

Remove set_fs support from s390. With doing this rework address space
handling and simplify it. As a result address spaces are now setup
like this:
CPU running in | %cr1 ASCE | %cr7 ASCE | %cr13 ASCE
----------------------------|-----------|-----------|-----------
user space | user | user | kernel
kernel, normal execution | kernel | user | kernel
kernel, kvm guest execution | gmap | user | kernel
To achieve this the getcpu vdso syscall is removed in order to avoid
secondary address mode and a separate vdso address space in for user
space. The getcpu vdso syscall will be implemented differently with a
subsequent patch.
The kernel accesses user space always via secondary address space.
This happens in different ways:
- with mvcos in home space mode and directly read/write to secondary
address space
- with mvcs/mvcp in primary space mode and copy from primary space to
secondary space or vice versa
- with e.g. cs in secondary space mode and access secondary space
Switching translation modes happens with sacf before and after
instructions which access user space, like before.
Lazy handling of control register reloading is removed in the hope to
make everything simpler, but at the cost of making kernel entry and
exit a bit slower. That is: on kernel entry the primary asce is always
changed to contain the kernel asce, and on kernel exit the primary
asce is changed again so it contains the user asce.
In kernel mode there is only one exception to the primary asce: when
kvm guests are executed the primary asce contains the gmap asce (which
describes the guest address space). The primary asce is reset to
kernel asce whenever kvm guest execution is interrupted, so that this
doesn't has to be taken into account for any user space accesses.

To avoid mistakes of calling udelay too early, which could happen from

The header file linux/uio.h includes crypto/hash.h which pulls in
most of the Crypto API. Since linux/uio.h is used throughout the
kernel this means that every tiny bit of change to the Crypto API
causes the entire kernel to get rebuilt.
This patch fixes this by moving it into lib/iov_iter.c instead
where it is actually used.
This patch also fixes the ifdef to use CRYPTO_HASH instead of just
CRYPTO which does not guarantee the existence of ahash.
Unfortunately a number of drivers were relying on linux/uio.h to
provide access to linux/slab.h. This patch adds inclusions of
linux/slab.h as detected by build failures.
Also skbuff.h was relying on this to provide a declaration for
ahash_request. This patch adds a forward declaration instead.

The current code is rather complex and caused a lot of subtle
and hard to debug bugs in the past. Simplify the code by calling
the system_call handler with interrupts disabled, save
machine state, and re-enable them later.
This requires significant changes to the machine check handling code
as well. When the machine check interrupt arrived while being in kernel
mode the new code will signal pending machine checks with a SIGP external
call. When userspace was interrupted, the handler will switch to the
kernel stack and directly execute s390_handle_mcck().

A page table upgrade in a kernel section that uses secondary address
mode will mess up the kernel instructions as follows:
Consider the following scenario: two threads are sharing memory.
On CPU1 thread 1 does e.g. strnlen_user(). That gets to
old_fs = enable_sacf_uaccess();
len = strnlen_user_srst(src, size);
and
" la %2,0(%1)\n"
" la %3,0(%0,%1)\n"
" slgr %0,%0\n"
" sacf 256\n"
"0: srst %3,%2\n"
in strnlen_user_srst(). At that point we are in secondary space mode,
control register 1 points to kernel page table and instruction fetching
happens via c1, rather than usual c13. Interrupts are not disabled, for
obvious reasons.
On CPU2 thread 2 does MAP_FIXED mmap(), forcing the upgrade of page table
from 3-level to e.g. 4-level one. We'd allocated new top-level table,
set it up and now we hit this:
notify = 1;
spin_unlock_bh(&mm->page_table_lock);
}
if (notify)
on_each_cpu(__crst_table_upgrade, mm, 0);
OK, we need to actually change over to use of new page table and we
need that to happen in all threads that are currently running. Which
happens to include the thread 1. IPI is delivered and we have
static void __crst_table_upgrade(void *arg)
{
struct mm_struct *mm = arg;
if (current->active_mm == mm)
set_user_asce(mm);
__tlb_flush_local();
}
run on CPU1. That does
static inline void set_user_asce(struct mm_struct *mm)
{
S390_lowcore.user_asce = mm->context.asce;
OK, user page table address updated...
__ctl_load(S390_lowcore.user_asce, 1, 1);
... and control register 1 set to it.
clear_cpu_flag(CIF_ASCE_PRIMARY);
}
IPI is run in home space mode, so it's fine - insns are fetched
using c13, which always points to kernel page table. But as soon
as we return from the interrupt, previous PSW is restored, putting
CPU1 back into secondary space mode, at which point we no longer
get the kernel instructions from the kernel mapping.
The fix is to only fixup the control registers that are currently in use
for user processes during the page table update. We must also disable
interrupts in enable_sacf_uaccess to synchronize the cr and
thread.mm_segment updates against the on_each-cpu.

s390. In addition the kernel currently doesn't even compile with
CONFIG_SMP=n for s390. Most likely it wouldn't even work, even if we
fix the compile error, since nobody tests it, since there is no use
case that I can think of.
Therefore simply enforce CONFIG_SMP and get rid of some more or
less unused code.

Kasan instrumentation adds "store" check for variables marked as
modified by inline assembly. With user pointers containing addresses
from another address space this produces false positives.
static inline unsigned long clear_user_xc(void __user *to, ...)

User space access functions are wrapped by manually instrumented
functions in kasan common code, which should be sufficient to catch
errors. So, we just disable uaccess.o instrumentation altogether.

The new set_fs value needs to be stored the the task structure first,
the control register update needs to be second. Otherwise a preemptive
schedule may interrupt the code right after the control register update
has been done and the next time the task is scheduled we get an incorrect

The vdso code for the getcpu() and the clock_gettime() call use the access
register mode to access the per-CPU vdso data page with the current code.
An alternative to the complicated AR mode is to use the secondary space
mode. This makes the vdso faster and quite a bit simpler. The downside is
that the uaccess code has to be changed quite a bit.
Which instructions are used depends on the machine and what kind of uaccess
operation is requested. The instruction dictates which ASCE value needs
to be loaded into %cr1 and %cr7.
The different cases:
* User copy with MVCOS for z10 and newer machines
The MVCOS instruction can copy between the primary space (aka user) and
the home space (aka kernel) directly. For set_fs(KERNEL_DS) the kernel
ASCE is loaded into %cr1. For set_fs(USER_DS) the user space is already
loaded in %cr1.
* User copy with MVCP/MVCS for older machines
To be able to execute the MVCP/MVCS instructions the kernel needs to
switch to primary mode. The control register %cr1 has to be set to the
kernel ASCE and %cr7 to either the kernel ASCE or the user ASCE dependent
on set_fs(KERNEL_DS) vs set_fs(USER_DS).
* Data access in the user address space for strnlen / futex
To use "normal" instruction with data from the user address space the
secondary space mode is used. The kernel needs to switch to primary mode,
%cr1 has to contain the kernel ASCE and %cr7 either the user ASCE or the
kernel ASCE, dependent on set_fs.
To load a new value into %cr1 or %cr7 is an expensive operation, the kernel
tries to be lazy about it. E.g. for multiple user copies in a row with
MVCP/MVCS the replacement of the vdso ASCE in %cr7 with the user ASCE is
done only once. On return to user space a CPU bit is checked that loads the
vdso ASCE again.
To enable and disable the data access via the secondary space two new
functions are added, enable_sacf_uaccess and disable_sacf_uaccess. The fact
that a context is in secondary space uaccess mode is stored in the
mm_segment_t value for the task. The code of an interrupt may use set_fs
as long as it returns to the previous state it got with get_fs with another
call to set_fs. The code in finish_arch_post_lock_switch simply has to do a
set_fs with the current mm_segment_t value for the task.
For CPUs with MVCOS:
CPU running in | %cr1 ASCE | %cr7 ASCE |
--------------------------------------|-----------|-----------|
user space | user | vdso |
kernel, USER_DS, normal-mode | user | vdso |
kernel, USER_DS, normal-mode, lazy | user | user |
kernel, USER_DS, sacf-mode | kernel | user |
kernel, KERNEL_DS, normal-mode | kernel | vdso |
kernel, KERNEL_DS, normal-mode, lazy | kernel | kernel |
kernel, KERNEL_DS, sacf-mode | kernel | kernel |
For CPUs without MVCOS:
CPU running in | %cr1 ASCE | %cr7 ASCE |
--------------------------------------|-----------|-----------|
user space | user | vdso |
kernel, USER_DS, normal-mode | user | vdso |
kernel, USER_DS, normal-mode lazy | kernel | user |
kernel, USER_DS, sacf-mode | kernel | user |
kernel, KERNEL_DS, normal-mode | kernel | vdso |
kernel, KERNEL_DS, normal-mode, lazy | kernel | kernel |
kernel, KERNEL_DS, sacf-mode | kernel | kernel |
The lines with "lazy" refer to the state after a copy via the secondary
space with a delayed reload of %cr1 and %cr7.
There are three hardware address spaces that can cause a DAT exception,
primary, secondary and home space. The exception can be related to
four different fault types: user space fault, vdso fault, kernel fault,
and the gmap faults.
Dependent on the set_fs state and normal vs. sacf mode there are a number
of fault combinations:
1) user address space fault via the primary ASCE
2) gmap address space fault via the primary ASCE
3) kernel address space fault via the primary ASCE for machines with
MVCOS and set_fs(KERNEL_DS)
4) vdso address space faults via the secondary ASCE with an invalid
address while running in secondary space in problem state
5) user address space fault via the secondary ASCE for user-copy
based on the secondary space mode, e.g. futex_ops or strnlen_user
6) kernel address space fault via the secondary ASCE for user-copy
with secondary space mode with set_fs(KERNEL_DS)
7) kernel address space fault via the primary ASCE for user-copy
with secondary space mode with set_fs(USER_DS) on machines without
MVCOS.
8) kernel address space fault via the home space ASCE
Replace user_space_fault() with a new function get_fault_type() that
can distinguish all four different fault types.
With these changes the futex atomic ops from the kernel and the
strnlen_user will get a little bit slower, as well as the old style
uaccess with MVCP/MVCS. All user accesses based on MVCOS will be as
fast as before. On the positive side, the user space vdso code is a
lot faster and Linux ceases to use the complicated AR mode.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the
coccinelle script shown below and apply its output.
For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in
churn.
However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to
correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write
accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining
ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following
coccinelle script:

Like the common queued rwlock code the s390 implementation uses the
queued spinlock code on a spinlock_t embedded in the rwlock_t to achieve
the queueing. The encoding of the rwlock_t differs though, the counter
field in the rwlock_t is split into two parts. The upper two bytes hold
the write bit and the write wait counter, the lower two bytes hold the
read counter.
The arch_read_lock operation works exactly like the common qrwlock but
the enqueue operation for a writer follows a diffent logic. After the
failed inline try to get the rwlock in write, the writer first increases
the write wait counter, acquires the wait spin_lock for the queueing,
and then loops until there are no readers and the write bit is zero.
Without the write wait counter a CPU that just released the rwlock
could immediately reacquire the lock in the inline code, bypassing all
outstanding read and write waiters. For s390 this would cause massive
imbalances in favour of writers in case of a contended rwlock.
