I think we could just move the full vm_iomap_memory() function into util.h or similar, but I didn't get any reply from anybody actually using nommu even to this trivial patch, so I'm not going to touch it any more than required.

variable_is_present() accesses '__efivars' directly, but when called via gsmi_init() Michel reports observing the following crash, BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: variable_is_present+0x55/0x170 Call Trace: register_efivars+0x106/0x370 gsmi_init+0x2ad/0x3da do_one_initcall+0x3f/0x170 The reason for the crash is that '__efivars' hasn't been initialised nor has it been registered with register_efivars() by the time the google EFI SMI driver runs. The gsmi code uses its own struct efivars, and therefore, a different variable list. Fix the above crash by passing the registered struct efivars to variable_is_present(), so that we traverse the correct list.

In commit b0de59b5 ("TTY: do not update atime/mtime on read/write") we removed timestamps from tty inodes to fix a security issue and waited if something breaks. Well, 'w', the utility to find out logged users and their inactivity time broke. It shows that users are inactive since the time they logged in. To revert to the old behaviour while still preventing attackers to guess the password length, we update the timestamps in one-minute intervals by this patch.

The pci config space accessors on s390 are (now) smart enough to figure out if a pci function is available. So instead of calling pci_create_root_bus and then pci_scan_single_device for each available function just call pci_scan_root_bus and let the pci core do the scanning (via config reads on all possible functions) and device creation.

When we fetch an interrupt on the CCW console using tsch (via ccw_device_wait_idle formerly known as wait_cons_dev) we increment the irq count for the affected interruption class but it is not accounted as an IO interrupt. This is broken since commit b603d258 "s390: remove superfluous tpi from wait_cons_dev" Fix it so that the sum of the individual interrupts per class matches the number of IO interrupts again.

In case a machine supports memory hotplug all active memory increments present at IPL time have been initialized with a "usecount" of 1. This is wrong if the memory increment size is larger than the memory section size of the memory hotplug code. If that is the case the usecount must be initialized with the number of memory sections that fit into one memory increment. Otherwise it is possible to put a memory increment into standby state even if there are still active sections. Afterwards addressing exceptions might happen which cause the kernel to panic. However even worse, if a memory increment was put into standby state and afterwards into active state again, it's contents would have been zeroed, leading to memory corruption. This was only an issue for machines that support standby memory and have at least 256GB memory. This is broken since commit fdb1bb15 "[S390] sclp/memory hotplug: fix initial usecount of increments".

Add a pointer to the system call table to the thread_info structure. The TIF_31BIT bit is set or cleared by SET_PERSONALITY exactly once for the lifetime of a process. With the pointer to the correct system call table in thread_info the system call code in entry64.S path can drop the check for TIF_31BIT which saves a couple of instructions.

User applications running on SMP kernels have long suffered from instability and random segmentation faults. This patch improves the situation although there is more work to be done. One of the problems is the various routines in pgtable.h that update page table entries use different locking mechanisms, or no lock at all (set_pte_at). This change modifies the routines to all use the same lock pa_dbit_lock. This lock is used for dirty bit updates in the interruption code. The patch also purges the TLB entries associated with the PTE to ensure that inconsistent values are not used after the page table entry is updated. The UP and SMP code are now identical. The change also includes a minor update to the purge_tlb_entries function in cache.c to improve its efficiency.

CONFIG_MLONGCALLS was introduced in commit ec758f98 to overcome linker issues when linking huge linux kernels, e.g. with many modules linked in. But in the kernel module loader there is no support yet for the new relocation types, which is why modules built with -mlong-calls can't be loaded. Furthermore, for modules long calls are not really necessary, since we already use stub sections which resolve long distance calls. So, let's just disable this compiler option when compiling kernel modules. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

When targetting 32-bit processors, __put_user emits a pair of stw instructions for the 8-byte case. If the type of __val is a pointer, the marshalling code casts it to the wider integer type of u64, resulting in the following compiler warnings: kernel/signal.c: In function 'copy_siginfo_to_user': kernel/signal.c:2752:11: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size [-Wpointer-to-int-cast] kernel/signal.c:2752:11: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size [-Wpointer-to-int-cast] [...] This patch fixes the warnings by removing the marshalling code and using the correct output modifiers in the __put_{user,kernel}_asm64 macros so that GCC will allocate the right registers without the need to extract the two words explicitly.

We need to check the runtime sys_table for the EFI version the firmware specifies instead of just checking for a NULL QueryVariableInfo. Older implementations of EFI don't have QueryVariableInfo but the runtime is a smaller structure, so the pointer to it may be pointing off into garbage. This is apparently the case with several Apple firmwares that support EFI 1.10, and the current check causes them to no longer boot. Fix based on a suggestion from Matthew Garrett.

Kay Sievers reported that coreutils' stat tool has a problem with s390's statfs[64] definition: > The definition of struct statfs::f_type needs a fix. s390 is the only > architecture in the kernel that uses an int and expects magic > constants lager than INT_MAX to fit into. > > A fix is needed to make Fedora boot on s390, it currently fails to do > so. Userspace does not want to add code to paper-over this issue. [...] > Even coreutils cannot handle it: > #define RAMFS_MAGIC 0x858458f6 > # stat -f -c%t / > ffffffff858458f6 > > #define BTRFS_SUPER_MAGIC 0x9123683E > # stat -f -c%t /mnt > ffffffff9123683e The bug is caused by an implicit sign extension within the stat tool: out_uint_x (pformat, prefix_len, statfsbuf->f_type); where the format finally will be "%lx". A similar problem can be found in the 'tail' tool. s390 is the only architecture which has an int type f_type member in struct statfs[64]. Other architectures have either unsigned ints or long values, so that the problem doesn't occur there. Therefore change the type of the f_type member to unsigned int, so that we get zero extension instead of sign extension when assignment to a long value happens. This patch changes the s390 uapi struct stafs[64] definition in the kernel to contain only unsigned values. This was true for 32 bit builds anyway, since we use the generic uapi header file in that case. So lets not include conditionally the generic uapi header file but have the s390 implementation completely independent. Also fix the types of struct compat_stafs to match reality and move the definition of struct compat_statfs64 to asm/compat.h since it is not part of the api.

The f_spare field within struct compat_statfs is four bytes larger than within the native 31 bit struct statfs. compat_sys_statfs() clears the f_spare field in user space which means that in compat mode four bytes that are behind the user space supplied struct compat_statfs will be corrupted (zeroed).
