s390/sclp: move pci related commands to separate file

2016-04-15T16:16:38Z

sclp commands only used by the PCI code shouldn't be build for !CONFIG_PCI. Instead of adding more ifdefs to sclp_cmd.c just move them to a new file. Signed-off-by: Sebastian Ott Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

s390/sclp_cpi: remove sclp_cpi module in favor of sysfs interface

2015-11-27T08:24:16Z

Since commit c05ffc4f2b20 ("[S390] sclp: sysfs interface for SCLP cpi"), which was made 2008 the user can specify a system and sysplex name through the /sys/firmware/cpi interface. In addition to sysplex and system name, the user can also override the system type and system version. Because the syfs interface is easier to use and allows the settings to be updated, the sclp_cpi module becomes obsolete and can be removed.

s390/dump: Remove CONFIG_ZFCPDUMP

2014-05-20T06:58:43Z

Currently there are two s390 kernel dump config options "CONFIG_ZFCPDUMP" and "CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP". In order to keep things simple and because the "CONFIG_ZFCPDUMP" option already has a dependency to "CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP" remove the CONFIG_ZFCPDUMP option.

s390/sclp: Determine HSA size dynamically for zfcpdump

2013-11-15T13:08:40Z

Currently we have hardcoded the HSA size to 32 MiB. With this patch the HSA size is determined dynamically via SCLP in early.c. Reviewed-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Michael Holzheu Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

s390/sclp: Add SCLP character device driver

2013-06-26T19:10:13Z

Add a character misc device "sclp_ctl" that allows to run SCCBs from user space using the SCLP_CTL_SCCB ioctl. Signed-off-by: Michael Holzheu Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

[S390] get CPC image name

2011-05-23T08:24:32Z

Provide sysfs attributes that contain the CPC name and the HMC network name of the machine the operating system is running on. This information is retrieved with the operation communication parameters (OCF) sclp interface. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

[S390] Remove tape block device driver.

2011-05-23T08:24:28Z

Remove the tape block device driver. It's not of real use but has already created some confusion when users wanted to access tape devices and used the block device nodes instead of the character device nodes. Also remove the whole tape documentation since it's completely outdated and we have the device drivers book which is the place where everything is properly documented.
