[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

KVM: s390: arch backend for the kvm kernel module

2008-04-27T09:00:42Z

This patch contains the port of Qumranet's kvm kernel module to IBM zSeries (aka s390x, mainframe) architecture. It uses the mainframe's virtualization instruction SIE to run virtual machines with up to 64 virtual CPUs each. This port is only usable on 64bit host kernels, and can only run 64bit guest kernels. However, running 31bit applications in guest userspace is possible. The following source files are introduced by this patch arch/s390/kvm/kvm-s390.c similar to arch/x86/kvm/x86.c, this implements all arch callbacks for kvm. __vcpu_run calls back into sie64a to enter the guest machine context arch/s390/kvm/sie64a.S assembler function sie64a, which enters guest context via SIE, and switches world before and after that include/asm-s390/kvm_host.h contains all vital data structures needed to run virtual machines on the mainframe include/asm-s390/kvm.h defines kvm_regs and friends for user access to guest register content arch/s390/kvm/gaccess.h functions similar to uaccess to access guest memory arch/s390/kvm/kvm-s390.h header file for kvm-s390 internals, extended by later patches Acked-by: Martin Schwidefsky Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Carsten Otte Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity

sched: restore deterministic CPU accounting on powerpc

2007-11-09T21:39:38Z

Since powerpc started using CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, the deterministic CPU accounting (CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING) has been broken on powerpc, because we end up counting user time twice: once in timer_interrupt() and once in update_process_times(). This fixes the problem by pulling the code in update_process_times that updates utime and stime into a separate function called account_process_tick. If CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is not defined, there is a version of account_process_tick in kernel/timer.c that simply accounts a whole tick to either utime or stime as before. If CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is defined, then arch code gets to implement account_process_tick. This also lets us simplify the s390 code a bit; it means that the s390 timer interrupt can now call update_process_times even when CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is turned on, and can just implement a suitable account_process_tick(). account_process_tick() now takes the task_struct * as an argument. Tested both with and without CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

[S390] Convert to smp_call_function_single.

2007-07-27T10:29:17Z

smp_call_function_single now has the same semantics as s390's smp_call_function_on. Therefore convert to the *single variant and get rid of some architecture specific code. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

[S390] s390: rename CPU_IDLE to S390_CPU_IDLE

2007-07-10T09:24:53Z

sched-cfs-v2.6.22-git-v18.patch introduces CPU_IDLE in sched.h. This conflict with the already existing define in include/asm-s390/processor.h Just rename the s390 defines, since they will go away as soon as we support CONFIG_NO_HZ instead of our own CONFIG_NO_IDLE_HZ.

[S390] ETR support.

2007-02-05T20:18:19Z

This patch adds support for clock synchronization to an external time reference (ETR). The external time reference sends an oscillator signal and a synchronization signal every 2^20 microseconds to keep the TOD clocks of all connected servers in sync. For availability two ETR units can be connected to a machine. If the clock deviates for more than the sync-check tolerance all cpus get a machine check that indicates that the clock is out of sync. For the lovely details how to get the clock back in sync see the code below. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

[S390] irq change improvements.

2006-10-11T13:31:26Z

Remove the last few places where a pointer to pt_regs gets passed. Also make sure we call set_irq_regs() before irq_enter() and after irq_exit(). This doesn't fix anything but makes sure s390 looks the same like all other architectures. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky
