[S390] fix/cleanup sched_clock

2008-11-27T10:06:57Z

CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME reveals that sched_clock has a wrong offset during boot: .. [ 0.000000] Movable zone: 0 pages used for memmap [ 0.000000] Built 1 zonelists in Zone order, mobility grouping on. Total pages: 775679 [ 0.000000] Kernel command line: dasd=4b6c root=/dev/dasda1 ro noinitrd [ 0.000000] PID hash table entries: 4096 (order: 12, 32768 bytes) [6920575.975232] console [ttyS0] enabled [6920575.987586] Dentry cache hash table entries: 524288 (order: 10, 4194304 bytes) [6920575.991404] Inode-cache hash table entries: 262144 (order: 9, 2097152 bytes) .. The s390 implementation of sched_clock uses the store clock instruction and subtracts jiffies_timer_cc. jiffies_timer_cc is a local variable in arch/s390/kernel/time.c and only used for sched_clock and monotonic clock. For historical reasons there is an offset on that value. With todays code this offset is unnecessary. By removing that offset we can get a sched_clock which returns the nanoseconds after time_init. This improves CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME. Since sched_clock is the only user, I have also renamed jiffies_timer_cc to sched_clock_base_cc. In addition, the local variable init_timer_cc is redundant and can be romved as well. Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

[S390] fix initialization of stp

2008-10-10T19:34:02Z

chsc_sstpc returns -EIO on error and 0 on success but stp_reset checks against 1 instead of 0. chsc_sstpc used to return 1 on success, one call location has not been updated .. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

[S390] nohz: Fix __udelay.

2008-10-03T19:55:54Z

This fixes a regression that came with 934b2857cc576ae53c92a66e63fce7ddcfa74691 ("[S390] nohz/sclp: disable timer on synchronous waits."). If udelay() gets called from a disabled context it sets the clock comparator to a value where it expects the next interrupt. When the interrupt happens the clock comparator gets not reset and therefore the interrupt condition doesn't get cleared. The result is an endless timer interrupt loop. In addition this patch fixes also the following: rcutorture reveals that our __udelay implementation is still buggy, since it might schedule tasklets, but prevents their execution: NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 42 NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 02 NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 142 NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 02 To fix this we make sure that only the clock comparator interrupt is enabled when the enabled wait psw is loaded. Also no code gets called anymore which might schedule tasklets. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

[S390] stp: fix section mismatch warning.

2008-08-01T14:39:34Z

Fix these two (false positive) warnings by adding an __init annoation: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x7e6a): Section mismatch in reference from the function stp_reset() to the function .init.text:__alloc_bootmem() The function stp_reset() references the function __init __alloc_bootmem(). This is often because stp_reset lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of __alloc_bootmem is wrong. WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x7ece): Section mismatch in reference from the function stp_reset() to the function .init.text:free_bootmem() The function stp_reset() references the function __init free_bootmem(). This is often because stp_reset lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of free_bootmem is wrong. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

sysdev: Pass the attribute to the low level sysdev show/store function

2008-07-22T04:55:02Z

This allow to dynamically generate attributes and share show/store functions between attributes. Right now most attributes are generated by special macros and lots of duplicated code. With the attribute passed it's instead possible to attach some data to the attribute and then use that in shared low level functions to do different things. I need this for the dynamically generated bank attributes in the x86 machine check code, but it'll allow some further cleanups. I converted all users in tree to the new show/store prototype. It's a single huge patch to avoid unbisectable sections.
