s390: TASK_SIZE for kernel threads

2017-02-24T07:43:38Z

Return a sensible value if TASK_SIZE if called from a kernel thread. This gets us around an issue with copy_mount_options that does a magic size calculation "TASK_SIZE - (unsigned long)data" while in a kernel thread and data pointing to kernel space. Cc: Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

s390: restore address space when returning to user space

2017-02-23T09:06:38Z

Unbalanced set_fs usages (e.g. early exit from a function and a forgotten set_fs(USER_DS) call) may lead to a situation where the secondary asce is the kernel space asce when returning to user space. This would allow user space to modify kernel space at will. This would only be possible with the above mentioned kernel bug, however we can detect this and fix the secondary asce before returning to user space. Therefore a new TIF_ASCE_SECONDARY which is used within set_fs. When returning to user space check if TIF_ASCE_SECONDARY is set, which would indicate a bug. If it is set print a message to the console, fixup the secondary asce, and then return to user space. This is similar to what is being discussed for x86 and arm: "[RFC] syscalls: Restore address limit after a syscall".

s390: rename CIF_ASCE to CIF_ASCE_PRIMARY

2017-02-23T09:06:38Z

This is just a preparation patch in order to keep the "restore address space after syscall" patch small. Rename CIF_ASCE to CIF_ASCE_PRIMARY to be unique and specific when introducing a second CIF_ASCE_SECONDARY CIF flag.

sched/cputime, s390: Implement delayed accounting of system time

2017-01-14T08:54:12Z

The account_system_time() function is called with a cputime that occurred while running in the kernel. The function detects which context the CPU is currently running in and accounts the time to the correct bucket. This forces the arch code to account the cputime for hardirq and softirq immediately. Such accounting function can be costly and perform unwelcome divisions and multiplications, among others. The arch code can delay the accounting for system time. For s390 the accounting is done once per timer tick and for each task switch.

No need to duplicate the same define everywhere. Since the only user is stop-machine and the only provider is s390, we can use a default implementation of cpu_relax_yield() in sched.h.

locking/core, s390: Make cpu_relax() a barrier again

2016-11-16T09:15:10Z

stop_machine() seemed to be the only important place for yielding during cpu_relax(). This was fixed by using cpu_relax_yield(). Therefore, we can now redefine cpu_relax() to be a barrier instead on s390, making s390 identical to all other architectures.
